Smart Valor built a decentralized marketplace for tokenized alternative investments backed by secure custody for crypto assets. By combining privacy and security of a leading banking center with the accessibility and diversity of the blockchain-based open network, the startup built a protocol for the Smart Valor Network, a distributed public ledger for issuance and distribution of investment solutions. The platform allows issuers in the decentralized network – investors, asset issuers, funds and facilitators – to interact and exchange values globally, in a seamless and simple way. The participating entities are aligned along smart-contract-based incentive mechanisms.
