A New Chapter for the startup funding community
You’ve seen the buzz around blockchain grants. Groups like the Stellar Community Fund dish out millions in XLM to early builders. It sounds tempting. But grants alone can leave you stranded when it’s time to scale. What if you could blend tax relief and equity investment into one seamless process? Enter SEIS and EIS.
Oriel IPO is shaking up how founders and investors mingle in the UK’s startup funding community. No hefty commissions. No confusing forms. Just a curated, tax-efficient platform that connects you to angel investors. Think of it as a launchpad that ticks the right boxes—simplicity, expertise, and confidence. Ready to join the movement?

The Limitations of Crypto Grants for UK Blockchain Startups
Blockchain grants—like those from the Stellar Community Fund—have clear perks. They inject capital without diluting equity. You get:
- Up to $150,000 in XLM to fuel your prototype.
- Dedicated support via local Ambassador Chapters.
- A growing community: 7,600 members and counting.
- Insightful bootcamps and recaps (SCF #40, #39… you name it).
But here’s the catch.
- Grants aren’t sustainable.
You might scrape together funding for launch day. But where’s the growth cash after mainnet? - No tax incentives.
Grants are pure crypto tokens—no Seed Enterprise Investment Scheme (SEIS) relief. - Lack of equity alignment.
Investors grant funds, but they don’t gain a stake. You lose a prime audience: equity-seeking angels. - Volatility drama.
XLM can swing wildly. Today’s gift could be tomorrow’s paper loss.
For a thriving startup funding community, you need more than one-off boosts. You need long-term partners, tax breaks, and clean equity deals.
Why SEIS & EIS Offer a Smarter Route
SEIS (Seed Enterprise Investment Scheme) and EIS (Enterprise Investment Scheme) are government-backed programmes that light up your pitch deck:
- Tax relief for investors.
Up to 50% income tax relief under SEIS, 30% under EIS. - Capital gains flexibility.
No CGT on gains if you hold shares for three years. - Loss protection.
Investors can offset losses against income tax. - Boosted credibility.
Being SEIS/EIS-approved signals seriousness to seasoned angels.
Picture this: you pitch a blockchain solution. Your investor ticks SEIS boxes, secures 50% income tax relief, and still gains equity upside. You get the money. You keep more control. Everyone wins. That’s the core of a resilient startup funding community.
