The wedge
Per NAV event
The wedge is staffing: administrators cannot hire the close they promised allocators.

If you read one Fund interests company this quarter, make it this one.
Counsel has a live path. The waitlist is a short list. This pad still takes 0% of proceeds.
Ivory House — An operational layer for funds: NAV events, share-class records, books an AIFM can defend. The administrator remains the administrator. This is co-sourced infrastructure, not a tokenised fund on a public board.
Screened, not yet in sprint. Treat every number as provisional. Calendar access is not automatic.
A year from now this will be an obvious company or a missed one. The window decides which.
Diligence, not a prospectus. RCA Pad does not allocate, take orders, or close funding. If this company raises, it raises with its own counsel.

Why the desk took it
Early — still a question.
Unit-as-token was refused in notes. We will not reverse that.
Traction
One named pilot (redacted).
Founded 2023, headquartered in Madrid. One named pilot on file (redacted in public). 2 nodes or connected surfaces reported. Desk diligence score 72/100. A qualified custodian reconciling against this book. Counsel is named, even if the memo is still a draft. Unnamed counsel is how files die.
Next 12 months
Counsel on the unit — security or not — in writing.
A public tokenised fund is a different file — and usually the wrong house. Bps on a job that already has a budget line. A public coin would not make the invoice larger.
The brief
How a serious reader should hold this.
Most Fund interests decks start with a market size. This one starts with a job: a person at a licensed firm, a record they cannot currently prove, and a calendar that does not wait for a proposed US rule. The calendar is the window. The window is the scarce thing.
Read this as an operating company, not a round. Counsel has a posture: Not offering — locked. Restricted markets stay dark. RCA Pad takes 0% if they ever raise. That combination is why inbound did not need a ticker.
The auditor of a redacted pilot has seen a dual-record. Switching away now means a new auditor conversation. That is the switching cost — not the logo.
From the pilot
The legal source of truth stays with the incumbent register, admin, or custodian. Ivory House does not attest to its own facts.
From ops
Fixed fee. Deposit to start. 0% of proceeds. Token-only pay is declined. Percentage of raise is declined.
From counsel
US persons are outside the audience. A form that asks “are you accredited?” without verification is not an exemption.
The window
Miss this and you read the archive.
Miss a few days and you are explaining to your IC why you read it after it closed.
The comment period is not a path. This company is priced as if that is already true.
Read it once, properly, while the number is still green. Then decide.

The bet
Why this company exists.
The wedge is staffing: administrators cannot hire the close they promised allocators.
The wedge is staffing: administrators cannot hire the close they promised allocators.
Allocators want faster marks. Administrators cannot staff that with people. A dual-record (their books + this event) is how they sleep.
Fund administration is a fee business measured in basis points of AUM. A faster close is retained business.
Versus the field
L2 wrappers are cheaper. They are also a different perimeter — and declined here. Ivory House is priced as software against an invoice that already exists.
The live path is Not offering — locked. Proposed Regulation Crypto Assets is not treated as a calendar slot. Build as if it never opens.
How it works
- 01Administrator remains source of truth
- 02Events (NAV, subscription, share-class) are signed and timestamped
- 03Investors and auditors query what they are allowed to see
- 04The fund unit is not listed here as a token you can buy
- 05Investors and auditors query only what they are allowed to see
- 06The legal source of truth stays with the incumbent register, admin, or custodian.

If they raise
Where the money would actually go.
Not a token float. A budget against work. RCA Pad still takes 0% of proceeds.
Claims & campaign ops
34%
A counsel memo that can survive a later reader.
Control environment
20%
Keeping the public story from running ahead of the claims register.
Certifications & adapters
19%
Adapter work against the incumbent register, admin, or custodian.
Named operators
27%
Dual-control drills, key ceremonies, and the person who owns them.
Operating week
What “in market” actually looks like.
- ThuCustomerNamed pilot (redacted) sees the same record the auditor saw.
- SunOwnersWho can decide messaging and budget on a recorded line. If the answer is nobody, stop.
- TueExceptionsOvernight breaks post back into the customer’s case system. No side book.
- FriKill switchRehearse unpublish in 24 hours. If it takes a committee, it is not a switch.
The wedge
Why this one, not the other one.
- They sell
- Per NAV event
- Who pays
- A qualified custodian reconciling against this book.
- Unit economics
- Bps on a job that already has a budget line. A public coin would not make the invoice larger.
- Moat on file
- Named administrator on the engagement letter.
- Switching cost
- Scheme maps, ISO, LMA language, registry adapters — eighteen months of unglamorous work.
- Vs the comps
- A public tokenised fund is a different file — and usually the wrong house.
- Why we listed it
- Unit-as-token was refused in notes. We will not reverse that.
Next twelve months
What has to be true.
Counsel on the unit — security or not — in writing.
Counsel is named, even if the memo is still a draft. Unnamed counsel is how files die.
Capital would fund the adapter work and a named counsel memo, not a public sale.
Traction
What you can verify today.
Founded 2023, headquartered in Madrid. One named pilot on file (redacted in public). 2 nodes or connected surfaces reported. Desk diligence score 72/100. A qualified custodian reconciling against this book. Counsel is named, even if the memo is still a draft. Unnamed counsel is how files die.
- Architecture paper — no production customer on the public file
- No token contract listed as a public sale
- Pilot letters on file, identities redacted
- Madrid is the operating centre
- The waitlist, if any, is a product list — not a book
- RCA Pad does not take a cut of proceeds

Risks
What can kill it.
The one that actually kills it
Counsel is a slide
Unnamed counsel is how companies die in diligence. Not offering — locked has to be a memo you can file, not a slogan on the hero.
Unit token
A share-class token sold to the public is a securities offering. This pad will not run that as a sale.
Admin of record
If the admin has not signed, this is a shadow book. Shadow books do not survive an audit.
NAV liability
Who is wrong when the number is wrong? That sentence has to exist.
Distribution
Using this layer as a public subscription journey is a different file — and usually the wrong house.
Shadow book
If the administrator has not signed, Ivory House is a copy of a spreadsheet. Copies do not survive the audit.
Facts vs theatre
A proof of a fake book is still a fake book. Ivory House has to attach to the real one, in Madrid.
Ask these next
- 01What happens if a founder later wants a public token?
- 02Where do keys, title, or NAV liability sit — and is that person licensed?
- 03Who is the first named paying customer — not a letter of intent?
- 04Which geography is actually locked, and which is a hope?
- 05If RCA Pad disappeared tomorrow, could the customer still run the job?
- 06Is the waitlist demand for a product, or a queue for a coin?

Who can decide
Aisha Cho (Chief executive) will take a 30-minute call and decide budget. If the only person who can accept “we are not opening a sale” is a silent co-founder in another time zone, this company would not be on the board.
Year two is a second named market and the remaining certifications — still permissioned. It is not a public book. A public book would be a different company.
