 Exhibit 10.11 

INVESTMENT AGREEMENT 

THIS INVESTMENT AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”), dated as of August [•], 2021, is by and among (i) Marblegate
Acquisition Corp., a Delaware corporation (the “SPAC”), (ii) Marblegate Acquisition LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (the “Sponsor”), and (iii) the purchaser signatory (or signatories) hereto (each, an
“Investor”). For the avoidance of doubt, the rights and obligations of each Investor under this Agreement shall be several, and not joint. 

WHEREAS, in connection with the initial public offering (the “IPO”) of units of the SPAC, each unit consisting of one share
of Class A common stock of the SPAC, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Class A Common Stock”) and one-half of one warrant (the “Units”), the Investor,
together with its affiliates, have expressed an interest in acquiring up to an aggregate of 1,470,000 Units in the IPO, but not to exceed 4.9% of the Units offered in the IPO (exclusive of any Units that may be issued pursuant to the SPAC’s
underwriters’ exercise of an over-allotment option) (the “IPO Indication”), at a price of $10.00 per Unit. 
 WHEREAS,
the parties wish to enter into this Agreement pursuant to which the Investor will purchase from the Sponsor shares of Class B common stock, par value $0.0001 per share, of the SPAC (the “Founder Shares”) for the same value paid
by the Sponsor, or approximately $0.002 per share. 
 NOW THEREFORE, the parties hereto hereby agree as follows: 

Section 1. Sale and Purchase. 
  

	 	(a)	 In connection with the IPO Indication, and subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in
Section 1(b), the Sponsor hereby agrees to sell to the Investor the number of Founder Shares specified in Schedule A of this Agreement (not to exceed 112,500 Founder Shares) (such shares, the “Transferred
Shares”) for the aggregate purchase price set forth in Schedule A hereto ($0.002 per share) (the “Transfer Price”) on the date of the closing of the IPO, and the Investor hereby agrees to purchase the Transferred Shares
(the “Transfer”). Concurrently with the Transfer, in consideration for the transfer of the Transferred Shares, the Investor shall pay the Transfer Price to the Sponsor in immediately available funds. 



 

	 	(b)	 Subject to (i) the fulfillment by the Investor or its affiliates (but only to the extent actually
allocated to the Investor or its affiliates by the underwriters) of the IPO Indication (which fulfillment shall consist of the acquisition of 100% of the Units of the SPAC allocated to the Investor by the underwriters in the IPO, but which number of
allocated and acquired Units shall not under any circumstances be greater than 4.9% of the Units offered in the IPO (exclusive of any units that may be issued pursuant to the SPAC’s underwriters’ exercise of an over-allotment option) and
(ii) the Investor’s payment of the Transfer Price as contemplated by Section 1(a) of this Agreement, the Transfer shall occur and be effective upon the closing of the IPO, automatically and without any action of
any other party hereto. For the avoidance of doubt, (i) subject to the foregoing contingency that if the IPO Indication is not fulfilled then the Investor shall not receive the Transferred Shares, Investor and its affiliates shall have no
obligation to buy units in the IPO, and the failure to do so shall not constitute a breach of this Agreement, and (ii) neither the Transfer Price nor the number of Transferred Shares shall be adjusted should the SPAC’s underwriters
allocate less than 4.9% of the Units offered in the IPO to the Investor or its affiliates (as applicable). 















	 	(c)	 Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the number of Transferred Shares shall not be subject to cut-back, reduction, mandatory repurchase, redemption, earn-out, additional lockup, reduced rights, forfeiture, or any other restrictions for any reason, including without
limitation (i) transfer of the Founder Shares to any person, (ii) downsizing of the SPAC’s IPO, (iii) failure of the underwriters to exercise their over-allotment option in connection with the SPAC’s IPO,
(iv) concessions or “earn-out” triggers in connection with the negotiation of a Business Combination (defined below), (v) or any other modification, without the Investor’s prior written
consent. 


  

	 	(d)	 The obligations of the Investor hereunder are subject to there being no material change in structure, terms and
conditions in the capital structure of the SPAC from that set forth in the Registration Statement on Form S-1 filed with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission on [•], 2021 (the
“Registration Statement”). 


  

	 	(e)	 The SPAC shall register the Investor as the owner of the Transferred Shares with the SPAC’s transfer agent
by book-entry on or promptly after the date of the closing of the IPO, provided that the Investor provides any and all information the transfer agent reasonably and customarily requires to record such ownership (the Investor will be recorded as the
owner of the Transferred Shares immediately following the closing of the IPO on the SPAC’s books and records with the SPAC’s transfer agent). 



Section 2. Representations and Warranties of the SPAC. The SPAC hereby represents and warrants to the
Investor, as follows:

binding obligation of the SPAC enforceable against the SPAC in accordance with its terms. 


  

	 	(c)	 The execution and delivery of this Agreement, the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby and the
performance of its obligations hereunder will not conflict with, or result in any violation of or default under, (i) the certificate of incorporation (as may be amended from time to time) or bylaws of the SPAC, (ii) any agreement, indenture or
instrument to which the SPAC is a party or by which the Transferred Shares are bound, or (iii) any law, statute, rule or regulation to which the SPAC is or the Transferred Shares are subject, or any agreement, order, judgment or decree to which the
SPAC is or the Transferred Shares are subject. 


  

	 	(d)	 There is no action, suit, proceeding, inquiry or investigation before or by any court, public board, government
agency, self-regulatory organization or body pending or, to the knowledge of the SPAC, threatened against or affecting the SPAC or to the SPAC’s knowledge, any of the SPAC’s officers or directors, whether of a civil or criminal nature or
otherwise, in their capacities as such. 


  

	 	(e)	 None of the information conveyed to the Investor in connection with the transactions contemplated by this
Agreement will constitute material non-public information of the SPAC upon the effectiveness of the SPAC’s current Registration Statement, as amended. 


  

	 	(f)	 The Transferred Shares upon issuance have been, or will be, duly and validly authorized, and on the date of
issuance, the Founder Shares will be duly and validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable and free of all preemptive or similar rights, liens, encumbrances and charges with respect to the issue thereof and restrictions on transfer other than

performance of its obligations hereunder will not conflict with, or result in any violation of or default (i) the operating agreement of the Sponsor, (ii) any agreement, indenture or instrument to which the Sponsor is a party or by which the
Transferred Shares are bound or (iii) any law, statute, rule or regulation to which the Sponsor is or the Transferred Shares are subject, or any agreement, order, judgment or decree to which the Sponsor is or the Transferred Shares are subject.



  

	 	(d)	 No other person or entity acquiring Founder Shares at or about the time of the IPO shall have rights superior
to, or more favorable to such person or entity than, the rights afforded to the Investor in this Agreement (any such more favorable rights, “Superior Rights”), provided that the Investor acknowledges that Founder Shares have been
offered to the Sponsor, executive officers, advisors, directors and director nominees of the SPAC in connection with their service and the Sponsor expressly reserves the right to issue membership interests in the Sponsor its sole discretion. For the
avoidance of doubt, any higher ratio for any such other person or entity of the right to receive Founder Shares to its IPO indication than such ratio for the Investor as set forth in this Agreement shall be considered Superior Rights. If any other
person or entity is afforded Superior Rights, the SPAC or the Sponsor (as applicable) shall immediately so inform the Investor and disclose to the Investor the terms thereof and the Investor shall have the right to elect to have those Superior

self-regulated organization or other non-governmental regulatory authority or quasigovernmental authority, or any arbitrator, court or tribunal of competent jurisdiction (a “Governmental Authority”). Upon transfer of the Transferred Shares
to the Investor at the closing of the IPO against payment of the Transfer Price, the Investor will acquire ownership of the Transferred Shares, free and clear of all liens, pledges, security interests, claims, options, proxies, voting agreements,
charges or encumbrances of any kind affecting the Transferred Shares, other than any restrictions on transfer that may be imposed by Applicable Law. 


  

	 	(f)	 No governmental, administrative or other third party consents or approvals are required, necessary or
