Let our experts guide you through tokenization, DAO structure, and blockchain engineering:
- Tokenization of traditional securities via our groundbreaking SFT Protocol & qualified code deference approach to corporate governance
- Deal structuring for transactions relating to DAPP / DAO / protocol tokens
- Governance and entity formation / structuring for DAOs & blockchain-powered entities
- Advice & consulting on technological, business and regulatory trends in blockchain technology
We are very active in lobbying for changes to securities laws and regulations to facilitate venture capital growth. ZeroLaw has been at the forefront of several recent initiatives to streamline capital raising regulations.
Our SFT Protocol maximizes the trust-reducing benefits of blockchain.
ZeroLaw’s SFT Protocol is a set of corporate transaction smart contracts that combine tokenized securities, embedded deal logic, and specialized legal agreements to deliver unprecedented trust-reduced automation in securities issuance / trading, cap table management, custody, dividend distribution and M&A deal execution.
Unlike other tokenized security technologies, we take an "on-chain-first" approach: implementing not only basic transfer restrictions on-chain, but also complex logic such as preferred stock liquidation waterfalls and employee stock option vesting.
We believe the theme of the new digital economy is the digital commons and that the venue for that commons will be public, un-permissioned blockchain. Issuers and shareholders will demand the transparency and interoperability that flow from this commons, and we intend to lead the way.
We’ve merged a deep knowledge of corporate traditional deal execution, legal regulations, blockchain, and traditional software development.
