Security Tokens -- The new cool kid on the block(chain)
Maybe not this new but the buzz about them is getting louder and louder
Tokenization of for example real estate makes a lot of sense in my book. You make liquidity way easier and you make fractional ownership real easy while you still earn your fair share of the rent income.
Swarm is a platform I have my eyes on for a while now and thinking about opening a position there.
People come together to invest in certain things. Like shares of an exchange or a dash masternode.
It lowers the requirments by so much for the little man to invest into such assests which makes it a really intersting concept and opens the door for many new investors.
You can tokenize pretty much everything and it would make so much sense.
1 Amazon Stock costs you 1.629,13 $ atm. That is quite the number and raise the bar quite high for owning one.
With the tokenazition you can lower the entry. If stocks will ever get tokenized is another question as you could simply do a split but I don`t really see why not even it will take many moons.
You can do this with sport teams, stadiums, museums etc. The token holders can easily be paid there dividends via airdrops.
What I really like about the whole idea is, that you dont buy into a new ecosystem and hope it will take off and reach adoption, no you really buy a real world asset.
It brings the real world onto the blockchain. Unlike ICOs, which in hinsight is the space of broken promises and dreams through the lack of accountibility, STOs offer a way realer product and therfore more security.
I think this could spark a new phase of ICOs only this time we call them STOs
This niche of tokens is still in its infant stage and it will take a while till we see which platform will be the chosen one the most STOs will launch and which legal issues etc will come with it but I am sure it will be coming.
I personally believe ETH will be a big player in this field as it was in the ICO phase as well but only time will tell if I am right or wrong.
Many believe this will be the new crypto trend 2019 and I can see that happening as well as it makes so much sense.
What do you think? Have you looked into security tokens yet? If so which ones are your favorites?
Thank you for being here for me, so I can be here for you.
Enjoy your day and stay creative!
Botty loves you. <3
Hopefully my NEX ICO plays out well. It still isn´t online.
so ganz habe ich das noch nicht kapiert ....
was genau? das NEX oder Security Token generell?
We already have (and still have) CDO's (collateralized debt obligations) and I hope people remember what happened here in 2008. Bad risks were included in AAA rated CDO's by Lehman and other scrupulous banksters and rating agencies. Hope they have learnt.
I doubt this changed as except lehmann brothers they got away with not even a slap on the wrists
STO’s will be popular in 2019. People want some ownership of the company revenues. I’ve been reading a lot about real estate sto’s that may come out next year. Going to be interesting!

I think real estate and possibly exchanges will make the first wave of STOs and then more stuff we not even thinking about now.
I am eager to see which platform most will choose though
