Self Custody and Security
Why do I need a Republic wallet?
1. Complete Ownership of Your Tokenized Investments
When you invest in a tokenized security on Republic, you receive digital tokens directly into your personal Republic Wallet. These tokens are fully self‑custodied—only you control the private keys associated with them. Republic does not retain custody of those assets, even if they are locked or vesting.
2. Control and Flexibility
With self‑custody, you alone can send, hold, or transfer your tokens—no middleman, no delays, no limits. That means no daily restrictions or holding period constraints outside of vesting rules defined by the offering.
3. Seamless and Integrated Experience
Republic Wallet is built into the investment platform, allowing you to skip creating a separate wallet entirely. After investing in a tokenized offering, assets flow directly into your wallet in a unified interface designed for ease of use—even for first-time crypto users.
4. Designed for Tokenized Assets Regulation
Republic’s broker‑dealer structure ensures compliance with regulatory frameworks (SEC, FINRA). By self‑custodying your tokens, you maintain transparency and regulatory alignment—particularly important for tokenized securities.
