Investment thesis

Tokensoft builds infrastructure that enables projects to issue and distribute tokens with high standards of scalability, cybersecurity and regulatory compliance. Its platform powers token sales, airdrops, cold-storage multi-signature custody, transfer-agent services and self-custody investment accounts for SEC-registered tokens. The company has developed standards such as ERC-1404 for real-world-asset-backed tokens and launched a Web3-enabled platform (Tokensoft V2) supporting multiple blockchains including Ethereum and Avalanche. Tokensoft has powered notable offerings including the Avalanche token sale, the first 40 Act fund on Ethereum, and the first Ethereum-based IPO with INX.
