Ownership Report #20: Jurassic Finance (@JurassicFi)
Jurassic Finance tokenizes dinosaurs, and we caught up with CEO Sora (@Sora_i_guess) after closing the first public onchain dinosaur sale. The raise brought in $660K over 30 days for Deaton, a museum grade Triceratops skull.
An OTC round for the RAWR token, a gacha where the top 1% of pulls are real dinosaur grails, and an onchain auction house to rival Sotheby's and Christie's.

Since last colosseum we raised 660K USD and are buying the first-ever dinosaur on Solana
That launch opened doors we didn't expected. We've been on calls with huge amount of collectors and sellers, and our network has grown so much that people now come to us asking for help with evaluation and to be connected with buyers or sellers.
These conversations quickly went far beyond dinosaurs into whiskey, gems, historical artifacts, exotic cars, paintings, etc.
We want to bring all of these assets on-chain.
Jurassic is evolving and I can't wait to share news about the next product
Second time is the charm ⚔

Jurassic Finance puts museum-grade fossils into SPVs so a specimen can be held by many participants instead of one auction buyer.

Vibhu reveals one of the craziest startups building on Solana:
"JurassicFi is literally tokenizing dinosaur fossils"
"The dinosaur fossil market is on fire. A T-Rex sold for $50M at auction last week"
"A couple of weeks ago these guys raised $5.5M in two hours on Solana to collectively group buy fossils and put them in museums"
"What's really cool is it's not just a museum piece. Those fractionalized shares can also be traded freely so you kind of have a liquid market for natural history"

.@JurassicFi Updates
- Legal team is actively working on the framework, ETA for SPV is 4 weeks.
- We decided to scrape the buyback at 80c idea and use the 5% of the tokens and USDC from the treasury for liquidity (@MeteoraAG, @omnipair).
The short term price of the token shouldn't matter to the aligned investor because he realizes it represents the asset and anything below NAV is a good buying opportunity.
- We decided to build the launchpad (extremely simple) in-house and run a quick audit with a freelance auditor from our network. Other solutions were in lower 5 figures range, whilst we can simply build this ourselves within 2 weeks.
- First Dino reserved for the purchase as soon as we raise

Nothing in alternative assets has been performing like dinosaurs 🦕
@JurassicFi CEO, Sora, on @Solflare Live #40 with @solquicks on why Jurassic project exists:
"Ken Griffin bought a Stegosaurus in 2024. It was estimated at around 6 million and it sold for 44 million."
"It's pretty common for dinosaurs to sell 2x their estimated value at auctions, but this one went 7x."
"We saw the hunger @solana has for RWAs. So we were like Solana needs this, we need this, @MetaDAOProject needs this. And let's do it." - @Sora_i_guess
