Use-case

/ 01

What is a security token?

A security token is a tradable financial asset that utilizes a blockchain to automatically store and validate transactions. Assets can be categorized as either real, financial or intangible. Digital financial assets may seem intangible, or non-physical, but in fact they do represent a claim of ownership of an entity, like a public company or commodity. Digital financial assets like security tokens help improve fractional ownership and liquidity.

XSC security token standard

Even though all transactions are automatically recorded, the blockchain does not replace securities law. Instead, the operational reality on the blockchain needs to comply with securities law, meaning the issuer of security tokens is in need for a specific level of control over the tokens. For example, in the case a company shareholder loses his private keys, they should still be able to exercise his ownership rights by law. The XSC Security Token Standard handles just that and provides all the necessary tools to be in control.
