VIAZ PLATFORM; A BETTER PLATFORM FOR MANAGING DIGITAL ASSETS.
A digital asset is basically considered to be anything or product whose basic existences is in a binary format and also possess the right as well as privilege to be utilised or used which cryptocurrency is regarded as a perfect example in this context. Thus any data or product which lacks the right to use but exists in a binary format is therefore not considered as a digital asset.
Also in the accounting field, the basic term "equity" primarily describes the basic difference that exists between the value or worth of an asset and the value of the liabilities of something that is owned. Lastly, fiat money or fiat currency is regarded to be any form of money or item that posses the features of been used to facilitate any form of transaction which therefore do not posses intrinsic value and has therefore been established or general accepted as money and is often regulated by the government.
The three terms "digital asset (cryptocurrency), equity and fiat" is where the basic context and ideology of the viaz platform is centered and the ideal question now is how?.

The problem with the conventional form of currency is basically the trust which is primarily required to make the system work. The central bank is however trusted to be upright and not to debase ( to lower the value of a currency). But however the reverse is the case that is to say that the fiat currencies is full of breaches of the said trust. Also, bank is supposed to hold individuals money as well as transfer them electronically but they do otherwise by lending it out with barely a fraction in the reserve. Also acquiring loan from bank is a very tedious task. But with the viaz platform, all these issues will be bygone because the platform has put in place outstanding as well as efficient models to help it acheive it's core target.
