what are the private investor platform you mentioned ? and what are the requirements to join in?
I don't remember which one I was looking at - they all have different requirements.
EquityBee got me investors to exercise my Brex options, in exchange for giving up some small beta
Hiive and Forge Global are the ones I know of. You must be an "accredited investor" which means nothing at all except that you have a million dollars or make $200k/yr.
