TokenIQ The Problem: The ERC-20 token and similar technologies are not capable of providing a truly compliant solution to the tokenization of securities, nor even to delivering a fully compliant ICO. A simple example is that in the cryptocurrency world loss of access to a wallet renders the token-holder incapable of capitalizing on gains while in the real world the loss of a share certificate in no way undermines a shareholder’s claim to their rights. Our Solution: Create a scalable technology solutions that allows us to tokenize securities, be they ICOs or traditional security offerings. Specifically, we address the key areas of: token Monetization, AML and KYC compliance, ongoing-compliance and market-making. Among the numerous capabilities that are missing from today’s crypto currencies are Futures, Vesting, Options (American and European), Indexes, Swaps, Forward Contracts, Lost token handling, Inheritance, Custodianship, Court Judgement enforcement. While some have talked about approaching a few of these capabilities through the deployment of an exchange mechanism, we believe that a better way is to build these directly into the token. The Token IQ solution makes all these capabilities available to tokenized securities, be they ICOs today or conventional securities in the future. Our immediate business opportunity is each and every company that has issued a SAFT agreement or is interested in fully legal, compliant and mature tokenization that is available to all investors and is "on-side" with SEC and other regulators.
