Securitized Token Offerings are a bold invention that could disrupt capital markets and bring massive liquidity, several times the size of the current markets. To my mind, STA Foundation is one such forum that aims to build an eco-system, bringing together diverse players committed to making Securitized Token Offerings a success.
