The new real estate marketplace for property owners and investors.
The Company was founded in 2021 by Matt Andelman and Doug McCright to leverage blockchain technology, creating an innovative marketplace for real estate investors and property owners. ABC Tokens are SEC regulated digital asset securities that represent the underlying net asset value (NAV) of the Company’s ownership in commercial real estate assets.
ABC Tokens, founded in 2021 by Matt Andelman and Doug McCright:
is a real estate-backed security token marketplace supported by advanced technology platforms.
ABC Tokens are SEC regulated digital asset securities registered under the ticker ABC and represent the underlying net asset value of our invested interests in commercial real estate portfolios managed by other sponsors and us.
Business Plan
Our mission is to establish a marketplace for real estate investing that is accessible to everyone, with a diversified property portfolio to reduce risk and provide liquidity.
Our digital asset securities can reduce risk, provide stability and potential for a greater yield for our investors compared to traditional cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin and Ethereum. Each ABC digital asset security token represents a fractional share of physical commercial real estate assets.
We create value and access for a broad investor pool by combining blockchain technology with scalable commercial real estate investments. Our business plan centers around the following programs:
Tokenize Assets:
Backing security token value with physical assets is referred to as “Tokenization”. Tokenization adoption is increasing along with acceptance of cryptocurrency and blockchain technology. We believe that our asset tokenization business model is timely and is becoming a mainstream approach in commercial real estate and many other markets that can benefit from global representation of legitimate value.
Liquidity Partner Program:
We invest in the limited partnership interests of selected property owners/developers who own and manage commercial real estate across multiple asset classes (i.e., multifamily residential; industrial; office; retail; and hotels). Our investments in these properties form a portfolio that provides the foundational value of the shares of our Company.
Democratize Real Estate Investing:
ABC Tokens are digital asset securities that represent fractional ownership in commercial real estate assets. This lowers the barrier to entry and improves access for investors. It also provides both property owners and investors with greater diversification and liquidity.
Market Opportunity
Recent challenges faced by commercial real estate markets due to the pandemic and emerging economic pressures provides an opportunity for The Company to purchase limited partnership interests in select real estate asset portfolios at attractive valuations while also offering long-term appreciation.
Our approach provides an opportunity to expand participation in commercial real estate not previously available to retail investors. Further, we believe that our digital asset securities, which will be tradable on major secondary markets for security tokens, will provide greater transparency and liquidity for commercial real estate investments which otherwise typically have remained illiquid for long periods of time.
