SIRIHUB
STO’s (Security Token Offerings) are offerings of real-world assets in tokenized form. The asset, in this case, is a 73 million USD real estate project, which serves as the underlying asset that is represented by the tokens that are offered.
Investors that buy these tokens, do not only own fractions of the tokenized asset, but also earn interest that is generated by the underlying asset. In this case rental income.
SIRIHUB token is Thailand’s first public real estate-backed STO and was launched under the supervision of the Thai Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). The token is built on the Tezos blockchain, which enables the enforcement of regulations through smart contracts.
These specific smart contracts are designed to ensure compliance with Anti-Money Laundering/ Combating the Financing of Terrorism (AML/CFT) measures, Know Your Customer (KYC) standards, and the whitelisting of investors.
Tokenizing assets through STOs enable small investors to tap into assets that are traditionally only accessible for big investors. Additionally, trading these assets in a tokenized form on a regulated platform increases liquidity by a large margin.
Buying or selling real estate property as a whole with the need of lawyers and/ or notaries is expensive and time-consuming. However, buying or selling tokens on a platform like ERX is as simple, fast, and cheap as trading cryptocurrencies.
The success of the launch of SIRIHUB Token proves this to be a winning concept for the Thai market. With the launch of SIRIHUB token, for the first time, all types of investors, big and small have been able to invest in this type of regulated offering in Thailand.
This concept has been met with great enthusiasm which resulted in the distribution of tokens to more than 6,000 subscribers, which represents a major breakthrough for the industry.
