No bank account required anywhere in this flow. Here's exactly what happens between creating an account and owning your first shares.
Sign up with an email and password, then complete a standard KYC check — a government ID and a quick selfie match, reviewed automatically in most cases. This is a one-time step; you won't be asked again unless your documents expire.
Your dashboard generates a unique deposit address. Send BTC or USDT from any wallet or exchange; your balance updates once the network confirms the transaction — typically minutes for USDT, longer for BTC depending on network conditions.
Choose how much you want to spend and confirm the amount. Your funds move from your holding balance into Sovereign Shares immediately — there's no waiting period to get invested once you've decided.
Your dashboard shows live construction milestones tied to Terafab's actual build progress, plus your shares' current value.
Sovereign Shares don't pay a fixed return. Their value moves with how the fab progresses, and you can see the current value of your shares on your dashboard at any time.
Sell your shares on the internal secondary market whenever you're ready, then withdraw the proceeds. Withdrawals go only to a whitelisted BTC or USDT address.
Understanding this is the key to understanding every product on the platform.
Terafab is a foundry: a facility that manufactures chips designed by other companies, under contract. Fabless chip designers — companies that design chips but don't own manufacturing capacity — pay Terafab to produce their designs at scale. That foundry-services revenue is what ultimately backs the long-term value of Sovereign Shares.
During construction, before any of that revenue exists, capital from share purchases helps fund the build directly. What your shares are worth depends on how the fab performs once it reaches scale.
No. Funding, investing, and withdrawing all happen in BTC or USDT — no bank account or card is used anywhere on the platform.
Your BTC is converted to CAD-equivalent at the confirmed market rate at the time of deposit, and your position is tracked in that CAD-equivalent value from then on — the crypto you fund with doesn't need to match what you eventually withdraw.
Yes. Shares carry risk and have no fixed floor — their value can go down as well as up. Read the full Risk Statement before buying.
Most verifications complete automatically within minutes. Occasionally a manual review is required, which can take up to two business days.
Deposits are free. Withdrawals pass through the actual network fee for BTC or USDT at the time of the transaction — Sovereign Wealth Fund does not add a markup on top of it.
A delay can slow the growth in the value of your shares, since that value depends on the fab reaching scale. Your dashboard always reflects real, current construction status, not the original projection.
