CapBridge 1exchange deploying Ethereum to register and track shareholdings

CapBridge 1exchange deploying Ethereum to register and track shareholdings

CapBridge 1exchange, Singapore’s first regulated private securities exchange, announced today that it will be using blockchain to register and track the shareholdings of investors who trade in private securities listed on its platform.

The Ethereum mainnet has been selected as the distributed ledger for 1exchange, as it is the most mature blockchain network with thousands of nodes and over 60 million users. 

“With DLT-enabled shareholding registration, investors on the 1X platform can independently verify and validate their shareholdings in real time without the manual process of going through an exchange or a trust administrator. The immutable nature of DLT provides the assurance of accuracy in recording and verifying both investor identity and the associated shareholdings.”

Choo Haiping, CEO of 1exchange

This initiative is developed in partnership with blockchain technology venture firm ConsenSys and will be implemented together with trust administrator Equiom Trust Services Pte. Ltd.

Joseph Lubin, the founder of ConsenSys and co-creator of Ethereum, said, “Ethereum is the largest open-source public blockchain network with over 400,000 developers and researchers actively improving its capabilities, and ensuring uniform standards and universal interoperability. The Ethereum project is second to none when it comes to maximizing all aspects of decentralization, which is the source of the rigorous trust characteristic that 1X relies on. Deployment of 1X on public Ethereum will increase visibility, lower the cost of compliance, drastically reduce the possibility of improper manipulation of the system of record and create positive growth for the private securities industry.”

“DLT enables trustees such as us to maintain a digital register in an accurate and efficient environment. In addition, investors are empowered to independently verify the transactions and their holdings in the public Ethereum network for added assurance. This creates a win-win situation for the trustee and the investors.”

Lynn Pang, Resident Manager of Equiom Trust Services Pte. Ltd.

Mr. Choo added, “The DLT architecture further adds to the robust and efficient 1X infrastructure – providing a trusted environment for market participants to trade with assurance. We believe the enhanced level of trust that 1X offers will provide greater comfort to investors and encourage more demand for private securities listed on 1X. With the assurance of an independent and immutable distributed ledger that sits on top of a MAS-regulated exchange, investors can confidently pursue returns from private equities listed on 1X.”

How 1exchange Will Use DLT To Improve Tracking of Share Ownership

By creating digital representations and registering these private securities via “smart contracts” on the public Ethereum network, a trustee can maintain an online ledger. This online ledger will contain a record of all share transactions on the 1X platform.

All transactions will be recorded immutably on the distributed ledger. Once ownership data is registered in the “smart contracts” on the public Ethereum network, the data cannot be changed or deleted. This provides investors with comprehensive, accurate, irreversible, and permanent records.

Through DLT, shareholding information on 1exchange will be more visible and more readily available, resulting in an immutable and distributed shareholding registry for all users of 1exchange.

1exchange Set To Connect to the Global Liquidity Pool

Built on the global public Ethereum network that has been designed with uniform standards and universal interoperability in mind, 1exchange can potentially easily interconnect with other DLT-based exchanges. This interconnectivity offers investors on 1exchange a more streamlined user experience, while enabling users of DLT-based exchanges the opportunity to diversify their portfolio exposure by investing in regulated private securities listed on 1exchange. With regulated and robust interconnectivity among exchanges, all participants will benefit from a common and enlarged global liquidity pool.

In time, investors can register with designated trustees through 1exchange and thereafter track their transactions and ownership directly and accurately.

With the potential ability to track different asset types across different exchanges in a single interface within a single environment, investors on 1exchange will enjoy improved ease of use, as well as an additional layer of comfort and visibility in their investment activities.

For exchanges serving users who are holding other types of assets, interconnecting with 1exchange will enable their users to access and participate in a new and regulated asset class of private securities in a compliant manner, leveraging highly familiar blockchain protocols while creating positive network effects.

With the public Ethereum network, regulated securities and other exchanges around the world will potentially be able to work with 1exchange to catalyze global liquidity for the private securities space.

1exchange is also open to collaborating with business corporates that have exchanges with a similar architecture, and together tap on the global liquidity pool within the allowed regulatory framework.

First batch of Private Securities Set for Listing

With global private capital platform CapBridge and private securities trading facility 1exchange, private growth companies now have a more flexible and cost-effective avenue to raise capital and achieve partial liquidity. Individual private investors can also easily access institutional grade private equity opportunities through the CapBridge and 1exchange platforms.

Over the next few months, 1exchange will be introducing its first set of listed private securities issued by growth companies. These companies are also set to benefit from the advantages offered by being represented on the distributed ledger.

In the near future, 1exchange will explore the deployment of “smart contracts” with embedded functions that support compliance and corporate actions, such as incorporating Know-Your-Client status, as well as enabling automated dividend issuance.

These features can further reduce the need for manual processes and lower the overall risk of human errors. Such functions will only be deployed when fully tested and in consultation with regulators.
