SmartOne announces ICO to bring the disruptive capabilities of blockchain-based enterprise to the legal sector by providing the crypto community with an access to legal services.
More than $1.3bn has been funnelled into Token Generating Events (often referred to as ICO’s) in 2017 alone. This surge in decentralized crowdfunding and token sales has exposed a legislative problem with blockchain technology moving faster than national legal systems, making the market highly volatile and risky due to the absence of regulators. In turn, this has stymied growth as the market is currently unable to reach a wider investor base, particularly within the world’s financial and capital markets, enterprises due to required regulatory standards including KYC and AML protocols.
Understanding the intricacies of the legal system is a complicated and sometimes muddy process. For most crypto developers, access to blockchain-savvy legal services is often unavailable, prompting them to opt for postures that favors avoidance over disclosure due to misconception.
Most legal services are yet to understand the potential of blockchain technologies and the impact the industry leveraging its’ technology will have on the future economy, resulting in a lack of regulatory frameworks designed to provide investors with confidence.
Designed to bridge the gap between the crypto industry and the legal institutions, SmartOne is the world’s first blockchain based marketplace for legal services. Powered by its’ ground-breaking LEGAL token, SmartOne will set a new standard by allowing lawyers and law firms directly offer legal services to the crypto community. The platform also brings researchers, developers, financial institutions, regulators, and investors together for the first time, on a single crypto-focused ecosystem.
Developed by a team of legal and technical experts based in ‘Crypto Valley’, Switzerland, SmartOne will facilitate the development, recognition, and acceptance of cryptocurrencies by financial institutions and legal services through research and dialogue with regulatory bodies.
With SmartOne marketplace, third parties will be able to select the experts they need to help them take their blockchain ideas through to legally compliant token generation event completion.
