Commodity tokenization, from day zero to market

We take a commodity from the first day to the go-to-market, in one path of ten stages.

Any physical commodity. Mining output, minerals and metals come first. Ethereum or the blockchain you choose.

What we do

The whole path, in one place

Ten stages, one counterpart. Each stage is ours from the first day.

00

Project analysis

The project is analysed at the start: the asset, the client and what the client wants to achieve.

Services →

01

Roadmap

A roadmap fixes the order of the stages and what follows each one.

Services →

02

Due diligence

The asset, its owner and its documents are assessed before anything is built on them.

Services →

03

Business plan and project development

A written business plan sets out the project: the asset, the market and the path to completion.

Services →

04

Site and production visit

We go and see the asset, the site and its production directly, and analyse what we find.

Services →

05

Asset evaluation and third-party evaluation

The asset is evaluated, and the evaluation is checked by an independent third party, so that the project rests on a figure that can be explained.

Services →

06

Custody and certificate

The asset is documented, and a certificate is issued or arranged through a depository or warehouse arrangement.

Services →

07

Tokenization

We create the token for you on a standard blockchain such as Ethereum, or on the blockchain you choose.

Services →

08

Marketing strategy

A marketing strategy is prepared with the client, who remains responsible for what it publishes and where.

Services →

09

Go-to-market and capital raise

We guide and accompany the client to market. The client is the issuer and remains responsible for its go-to-market. We also guide the client through its capital raise, for which the client remains responsible.

The market

Tokenized commodities already exist

Tokenized commodities are already live on public blockchains and can be found with a search engine.

Creating a token is the part most people know how to do. Going to market well is the part that needs a guide.

We are there from day zero, and alongside the client when it goes to market.

Where we work

Commodity classes

Any physical commodity can be taken through the path. Mining output, minerals and metals come first; the path then extends to precious metals, energy and agricultural commodities.
