How it works
Assets are converted to tokens according to their specification, ready to be traded on the platform.
STTS handles the entire trading process, from matching the interests of buyers and sellers to completing the delivery vs payment process.
When an asset has successfully changed hands, its new owner can continue to trade with it on the platform, or detokenise it for offline use.
Tokenisation
- Sellers tokenise assets based on their specifications
- Specifications
- Custodian reference
- Certificates (quality / origin)
- Asset confirmed
The asset custodian checks seller details and quantity of listed asset, then confirms its existance on the platform.
- Origin confirmed
Checks may be performed by the certificate issuer to confirm that certificates provided are genuine.
- Quality confirmed
The auctioneer, a delegated third party or an automat confirms that tradeable attributes match certificates provided.
- Tokens issued
The asset is now pledged to the platform. Depending on the asset class, the token can be:
- Fungible
- Non-fungible
- Parametric (semi-fungible)
Trading
- Seller lists asset and set offer price
- Limit price
- Sell at market price
- Buyer places anonymous bid for material
