💡 Background
"Blockchain is an emerging exponential technology that disrupts the existing way of doing business. During the last 10 years its importance has been highlighted and many organizations worldwide have embraced it and developed innovative applications. Security Token Offerings are the initial sell of regulated, security tokens on the blockchain (e.g., equity participation or debt tokens). STOs primarily serve small and medium-sized companies to raise capital in a more efficient way than through an IPO, crowdfunding or other traditional methods. Security tokens are estimated to have tremendous growth potential.
🦾Who We Are

Instead, we currently research topics that will shape the future.
