FraXion Launches First Security Token Offering in the USA 11786

Randolph & Main Capital Group (RMCG) has announced the launch of FraXion (FRXN). It is one of the first debt Security Tokens aimed at retail investors who wish to invest alongside institutional investors in the most sought-after real estate developments in the United States. The Tokens will have a 5-year life, earn an annualized cash yield of 10%, and a 5-year IRR of 150%. RMCG has aligned with diversified developers like Donahue Peebles, the largest minority real estate developer in the United States, and Royal Palm Companies, one of Florida’s premier real estate development firms, to invest the net proceeds of the FraXion Security Token Offering (STO).

Demetrius Ford, RMCG’s Managing Director of Digital Assets, stated that “This is a very exciting time for RMCG and FraXion, but an even more exciting time for retail real estate investors who have traditionally been locked out of institutional-grade real estate investment opportunities due to high minimum investments and other barriers to entry. FraXion is all about access. By pooling the investment capital of many, we can invest substantial sums as one, which grants our investors entry into the institutional world.”

FraXion has already sold 250,000 tokens within the first weeks of the STO, and the company has also secured a funding round of $250,000 from Park Place Consultants to assist with the marketing and promotion of the FraXion Token. “We are excited for the launch of the Fraxion Token and the opportunity it brings to the marketplace; a new way of Real Estate Investing. We are humbled and honored to be part of such an extraordinary team at Randolph & Main, and these are the types of projects we look to support.” said Rashidah “Roz” Billups, Principal at Park Place Consultants.

Tokenization of Real Estate

The FraXion Token is a game changer in the Fintech space. Tokenization of high-quality real estate, coupled with the cutting-edge technology of the blockchain, is attractive to investors that usually shy away from the crypto market. FraXion is a cutting-edge platform for investors to build generational wealth in Real Estate using Blockchain. FraXion creates “Digital Asset Partners” and allows token holders to invest in prime income-producing properties as well as land suitable for immediate commercial development through strategic alliances and partnerships with some of the most successful real estate developers in the United States.

The FraXion Ecosystem provides fractionalization, liquidity and access to global investors. The FraXion Token is an application blockchain asset that is recorded on the Ethereum blockchain. Ownership of a blockchain asset is established by recording on the blockchain ledger the owner’s unique identifier address and the amount of the asset held by such an address.

  3. Expanded Product Offerings: With Fireblocks, FinchTrade now offers individual client wallets, expanding its services to include crypto asset custody. This enhancement allows clients to store assets, execute conversions between cryptocurrencies and fiat, and make payments — all from within their FinchTrade account, without the need for external third-party services.

STYLE Protocol Building to Empower Gamers Closes $2.5M Seed and Lists Token on Major Exchanges 8571

STYLE Protocol, which transforms NFTs into 3D assets that can be used in any game or metaverse, has listed its native utility token on major exchanges.

The cutting-edge digital asset — $STYLE — made its debut on Bitget and MEXC, and is also available on the decentralized exchange Uniswap.

Holding this token unlocks access to the protocol’s exclusive products, and makes in-game assets including objects and weapons truly interoperable in other titles.

Imagine collecting a rare skin in Sandbox, and being able to use it in any other virtual environment. Imagine being able to transform your favorite NFT into a living, breathing character. Imagine being able to type in a prompt for an avatar you want to create, with AI designing it for you in seconds. We’re making all of this possible on our world-leading platform — and the $STYLE token means you can get involved.

STYLE Protocol’s meticulously designed infrastructure means non-fungible tokens can become truly multi-world assets that are bridged across blockchains. Other powerful applications are available, including the ability to multiply blue-chip collectibles across virtual worlds. For example, this could allow a Bored Ape owner to rent their NFT out as an in-game avatar — and unlock brand-new revenue streams in the process.

The listing of $STYLE is only the beginning, with even more exhilarating features set to be added to the protocol in the not-too-distant future. Key objectives include rolling out compatibility for further games and Web3 environments, and continuing to tear down the silos that exist between operating systems and games.

All of this comes hot on the heels of STYLE Protocol raising $2.5 million in seed funding to further its mission. An all-star cast of prominent investors took part — including Morningstar Ventures, Dutch Crypto Investors, GBV Capital, Protocol Labs and Alpha Ventures — a powerful illustration of the potential and excitement surrounding this new ecosystem.

Making VR adoption a reality

STYLE Protocol is ready to level up the world of gaming like never before, and allow players to achieve the impossible.

The platform builds on Polkadot, which creates a “blockchain of blockchains” that champions interoperability — just like STYLE Protocol. Being based on this network means the project can capture interest across a plethora of EVM-compatible chains — Ethereum, Binance Smart Chain, Polygon and Avalanche among them. And as Web3 continues to go from strength to strength, $STYLE is the only token in town that delivers the future of GameFi: a unified world where digital assets are no longer fragmented.

Avid gamers have already been transporting their Azukis into GTA V for heart-pumping stunt races and strategic heists — breathing new life into the game. And STYLE Protocol believes that its technology will spark renewed interest in beloved titles by providing a degree of personalization that wasn’t possible before.

STYLE Protocol founder Leo Hilse said: “When it comes to virtual reality and the metaverse, we’re so early. Expensive VR headsets are only available to a few right now, but they’re on the cusp of becoming mainstream. STYLE Protocol is tackling a key barrier to adoption before it becomes an issue: making sure that any in-game item or NFT can travel between virtual worlds, just like a player sitting in their living room would. It takes hours of skill or a significant amount of cash for a gamer to earn rare items, and we want to ensure they get value for money by being able to take it with them wherever they go.”

About STYLE Protocol

STYLE aims to help gamers transcend identity across the multiverse — meaning NFTs and other virtual assets can be used in any game, anywhere. The protocol’s focus on interoperability is designed to enhance adoption, tear down barriers to entry, and deliver a world-class experience for players.

Manuel Rensink from Fathom: “Propine offers world-class services, and their battle-tested custody has been our choice. Despite all the shockwaves that enveloped the industry, Propine has been resilient because of its governance and internal controls & systems. They have consistently led innovation in the digital asset custody space and raised the bar. Propine’s support for FXD is a game-changer, providing a seamless ramp on/off service between digital assets and fiat currencies. This service is crucial for enhancing the liquidity and accessibility of FXD, making it an attractive option for businesses and financial institutions engaged in international trade.”

Rensink added, “The integration of Propine’s custody solutions with FXD ensures that users can enjoy the highest security and compliance standards, essential in the highly regulated financial sector. As FXD gains traction, Propine’s role in its custody and management will undoubtedly be a key factor in its success, marking a new era in integrating real-world assets with digital finance solutions.”
