Aside from the fact that we think we are better than any other asset backed tokens (our humble opinion), there are three main reasons we can point to. Transparency, experience and product.
Transparency - In recent months, there has been some speculation and suspicion surrounding whether or not certain “asset backed” tokens actually have the assets supporting them that they claim. Each month, we will publish investor reporting to the Property Coin website, including accounting for the material assets owned by Property Coin holders. This valuation will provide investors with transparency as to the the nature and value of the underlying assets owned by Property Coin.
Experience - Unlike many other token platforms (both asset backed and non asset backed alike) our company exists, is operational and most importantly, is producing profitable assets. Our team has extensive experience operating and building similar businesses and we held senior positions at competing businesses at significant scale (more than $1B of annual purchases/originations). Similarly, our marketplace has strong, existing demand and does not require adoption from customers that may or may not come with time.
Product - Most real estate related ICOs have largely been focused on either large commercial real estate projects or blockchain based title registries. We are the only ICO, that we know of, offering diversified and professionally managed exposure to the U.S. residential real estate market.
