Why now
The pre-IPO market changed. The plumbing didn't.
Tender offers run twice a year. Demand for liquidity runs every day. Without an issuer-controlled venue, secondary trades happen anyway, in opaque SPVs, off your cap table, at prices you didn't set.
How Cerebras, Lambda, and Perplexity-class issuers run continuous secondaries.
