Digital Tokens: The Future of Finance in Detail with QEDVault
Living in a world where people are surrounded by technologies that change almost every industry, finance is also among them. Perhaps one of the most noteworthy spaces is the emergence of new technologies based on the use of digital tokens. If you in any way have been discussing blockchain and cryptocurrencies you must have come across the term ‘digital token’ several times. So, what’s special about digital tokens? Let’s try to understand what they are and why they are so groundbreaking for businesses, investors, and regular people.
At QEDVault we are obsessed with the ability of the companies and investors to leverage the digital tokens for new opportunities and increased efficiency. Let’s look at what digital tokens are, why they matter in today’s world, and what QEDVault can do for you.
What Are Digital Tokens?
A digital token therefore can be defined as an asset or value token that is created on a blockchain which is a form of distributed electronic record-keeping system. Unlike directive currencies, which are physically printed tokens issued and controlled by one or several governments, digital tokens are virtual tokens established on the blockchain. Tokens can be anything digital from cryptocurrencies such as Bitcoin or Ethereum, stocks or bonds, real estate or even intangible assets such as loyalty points, voting rights in the community, etc.
What sets digital tokens apart from the greater is that they are malleable by design. Real estate tokens can signify from a small portion of the property to a piece of art, NFT or a fragment of an organization’s stake. After being released into circulation, tokenization enables efficient exchange, sale, purchase or even storage like any other asset. It doesn’t stop at the traditional financial benefits, however, as tokens provide more control and assurance, two things that are distinctly absent from conventional financial assets.
Types of Digital Tokens
Digital tokens are not a one-size-fits-all approach. They came in several types, each with its characteristics and suitability for specific purposes. Let’s break them down:
Key Features of the QEDVault Platform:
-
1. Utility TokensUtility tokens are tokens that offer their holders a special right to a specific product or service within a given platform or application. For instance, a firm may offer utility tokens for use in payment of services within their firm or organization. They are not built as investments but as instruments to activate particular features of a network.
-
2. Security TokensThese tokens provide evidence of ownership in an object such as stocks, property and other securities like bonds among others. Security tokens in a similar way are governed by rules and regulations, just like any other financial asset. At QEDVault, you can work with us for the issuance of security tokens for the ownership of assets in fractions with current legislation.
-
3. Cryptocurrency TokensOther cryptocurrency tokens are similar to Bitcoin and possibly Ethereum in that these tokens can be used as a medium of exchange that resembles digital cash. These tokens are issued in several copies and are pledge-able or usable for buying and selling goods and services, transferable or investible. At QEDVault, we appreciate the increasing value of cryptocurrencies and help organizations that accept cryptocurrencies as payment or have token-based economic systems.
-
4. Non-Fungible Tokens (NFTs)NFTs are a kind of token, which implies ownership of an item, usually art, collectables, or even content. Therefore, contrary to other digital tokens, NFTs cannot be swapped bilaterally – every token has its value. The expansion of NFT usage bids new prospects to create and market new types of digital assets for both artists and commercial entities.
Why Pay Attention to Digital Tokens?
Although the term digital tokens can sound more like a concept in a sci-fi movie, they are already becoming the norm through which we engage with the financial sphere, companies, and art itself. Here’s why you should pay attention to this growing trend—and how QEDVault can help you make the most of it:
-
1. Access to New MarketsThe use of digital tokens removes barriers to entry for would-be investors and corporations, enabling them to get access to investments that were previously only available to a few people. For example, decentralizing real estate implies that they would be able to buy parts of expensive assets such as houses using mere tokens and without having to pay millions of dollars for the property.
We at QEDVault make this process easy and secure for you. When tokenizing property, shares, or any other valuable asset, our platform enables you to extend your market reach to global investors, thereby improving your ability to access funds.
-
2. Enhanced LiquidityA major issue with buy-and-hold assets such as property, PE funds, or antiques is their non-marketable nature, a process that may take several months up to a couple of years at times. As with most other aspects of a digital token, liquidity can be significantly enhanced. Once an asset becomes digitalized, the tokens that represent the asset can be purchased, sold or exchanged in the market almost immediately; assets that initially had no market from the traditional market point of view have now obtained a market.
Thus, QEDVault offers a marketplace for the exchange of tokenized assets, guaranteeing that you will allocate buyers and sellers across the globe, enabling investors to cover positions or secure funds whenever necessary.
-
3. Security and TransparencyDigital tokens are based on the use of blockchain, which creates the highest security and openness. Every token exchange is stored on an open blockchain platform, and none of the token movements can remain unnoticed. This also takes away so many trust problems that are characteristic of traditional finance.
At QEDVault, we work with the best-certificated blockchain technology to guarantee that all tokens on our platform are safe, irreversible, and impenetrable to fraudulent attempts. We also incorporate smart contracts into the platform, self-executing token-based agreements eliminating fees and increasing safety.
-
4. Fractional OwnershipAnother thing that many people find very interesting about using digital tokens is that one can own fractions of an asset. Instead of having to accumulate an entire asset, investors can invest small portions of an asset making it possible for those who would want to invest in expensive assets such as property or artwork.
For instance, you can purchase a percentage of a business property in New York or a percentage of a scarce painting that will give you diversified risk based on a diversified portfolio yet you can own a piece of expensive property. QEDVault leverages fractional ownership through the use of digital tokens which is an important driver of making asset ownership more affordable than ever.
-
5. Regulatory ComplianceThe regulation of digital tokens is complex because most nations globally have yet to come up with legal structures governing such tokens. However, ensuring compliance with the law means that there is no problem encountered with the law in future.
QEDVault enables all tokens that may be launched on our platform to abide by laws such as security laws, and anti-money laundering laws among others. This means that we will always ensure that our tokenization process is as easy, safe and legal as possible for you.
