To acquire this Bay Area home, you’ll need Anthropic equity
Homeowner and investment banker Storm Duncan has created a LinkedIn page for the home, which he remarked he’d “like to exchange […] for Anthropic equity.”
The San Francisco Standard reports that Duncan described this as a “diversification play,” as he’s “under-concentrated in AI investments relative to the importance of AI in the future, and over-concentrated in real estate,” while a young Anthropic employee might be “in the exact opposite scenario.”
Duncan is asking potential buyers to email him to discuss deal specifics, but he remarked it would be a private transaction that doesn’t require the buyer to divest their stock outright. On LinkedIn, he also remarked the homebuyer would “continue to retain 20% of the upside value of the shares exchanged for the duration of the lockup period.”
Duncan, who described himself as a longtime Bay Area resident who moved to Miami during the pandemic, bought the property in 2019 for $4.75 million. It’s currently occupied by “a high profile VC,” he mentioned, but he declined to identify the VC. This also touches on aspects of startup.
