Blockchain Technology – President and CEO

Recent turmoil in global markets caused wild volatility in equities and crypto prices leading to frustration for retail and institutional investors alike. It raised questions about the oversight of markets and the power of entrenched players. For many, these events were another catalyst for a broader democratization of markets, one powered by digital assets and decentralization. Major developments in security token technologies brings that future closer.
Security tokens are financial securities created using blockchain. Like traditional securities, they represent ownership interests in assets (equity, debt, real estate, etc.). However, as they are created digitally (tokenized), they unlock the power of the blockchain with enhanced features. Security tokens provide benefits such as efficiency through automated operations, increased global liquidity pools, and the creation of new and unique financial assets.

Security tokens are an exciting new class of assets – truly digital securities, and they represent a massive global market opportunity.
The Ethereum blockchain has been most widely used to create, issue, and manage security tokens. Ethereum creates unstoppable applications through smart contracts that efficiently manage regulatory rules embedded in an issuer’s security token to unlock non-traditional assets and improve liquidity. Ethereum however lacks key elements which, if not included, hamper industry and institutional acceptance of security tokens. These include identity management, confidentiality, governance and compliance.

These gaps create an opportunity for a dedicated, domain-specific blockchain built with security tokens in mind, one that incorporates these elements from the ground up.
Already leaders in the Ethereum token sector, our client has developed a purpose-built enterprise-grade blockchain. It provides an interface between financial securities and the blockchain, helping issuers to overcome the complex technical and legal challenges related to issuing regulated securities on the blockchain. Our client’s technology improves usability and optimizes the consensus mechanism, driving adoption and recognition for the security token industry.

It is transformative technology that will alter the financial landscape, unlocking trillions of dollars in asset value and investment, programmably automating operations, and driving new paths to liquidity.
