Hi Danny, These investments are inherently illiquid (not traded on public exchanges), longer term, and high risk as is the nature of start-up investing. However, a number of companies have paid dividends, or had liquidity events such as being acquired or going public on a public exchange. Additionally, StartEngine launched StartEngine Secondary, our alternative trading system in October 2020. Several companies are trading or have signed to trade, and StartEngine's OWN shares were the first to trade on the platform. If you would like to reach out to contact@startengine.com our team would be happy to provide you with examples.
