European investors (from most member states in the EEA) and accredited investors from the US are able to participate in our STO. For the first round, only limited spots are available. More information will be published over the coming days and weeks about the steps that are required to participate in the Blockport STO. For now, you can register to receive these updates on our STO page.

In the first round, we aim to raise a maximum of 5 million Euros by issuing Blockport Securities (BPS). This allows us to distribute the ownership of Blockport amongst the stakeholders in our ecosystem that share our vision - whilst helping us to better match the demand we’ve received for a profit sharing model in the Blockport ecosystem. The Blockport STO is planned to go live on the 15th of April, at 15:00 CET. Whitelist (EU)The Blockport STO plans to include separate offerings to (i) accredited investors in the United States and (ii) to participants in Europe (EEA countries). Whitelist (US)Who can participate in the Blockport STO?For the first round, only limited spots are available. Once the STO is live, we will accept investors on a first come, first serve basis. If we have not received the deposit amount in time, your spot may be lost. Only investors who have completed the verification and subscription process in the dashboard can make a deposit. So make sure you have completed all the verification steps before the launch on the 15th of April. Investors can register their interest (also known as whitelisting) by creating an account on invest.blockport.io. Through this account, investors will have access to their own investor dashboards. The Blockport STO Investment MemorandumFrom within the investor dashboard, investors will be able to access and download our Investment Memorandum. The Investment Memorandum provides investors with all the necessary information about our STO, as well as insights into the BPS offering itself, and how to purchase BPS tokens.

STO: second and third rounds closed to public investors
In 10 days the first round starts on the 15th of April 15:00 CEST. In addition to the first round, Blockport has previously announced plans for two subsequent STO rounds. We have decided that these planned second and third rounds of our STO fundraising will not be accessible to the general public. This means that our community of users and investors will only be able to participate in the first round of the STO, and not in the later rounds of the equity-fundraising.

Blockport STO postponed by 24h
Due to some unforeseen technical difficulties faced by our issuance platform, Tokeny, we've decided to postpone the STO by 24 hours, until tomorrow, 16 April, at 15:00 CEST.
Although the issue will likely be resolved sooner, we want to provide our investors with a fair and equal chance to invest, and therefore believe a 24 hour postponement is the best solution.
We'll try our best to keep everyone updated on the STO launch status.
We understand that many of our investors and community members put time aside to participate in the STO today, and we'd like to convey our sincerest apologies for the delay.
Thanks for your understanding!
Sebastiaan, Kai, Zowie and the team

What does this means? Why are you raising money again? You raised money in last year on ICO already and now you are making STO? ![Shocked](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/shocked.gif) Over the past few months, we’ve been talking with Venture Capital (VC) investors that want to take on the prospect of helping us scale. Throughout these conversations, we instead realised that the concept of raising funds through a public sale allows us to be in control of raising capital in a sustainable and inclusive way, whilst also being beneficial to everyone in our community. The strategy of tokenization allows us to distribute ownership of Blockport amongst the stakeholders in our ecosystem that share our vision - and also helps us to better match the demand we’ve received for a profit share model in the Blockport ecosystem. Tokenization also allows for investor participation based on lower barriers to entry, whilst making it easier for investors to buy, sell or trade their shares at a later stage - if they wish to do so. The wave of security tokens is inevitable, and it’s been shown by the likes of Forbes, Entrepreneur and Nasdaq that tokenized securities will play an integral role in ‘decentralizing’ traditional finance. Lastly, we believe that this fundraising approach is a faster, more efficient way of raising funds and distributing equity. As a company operating in the blockchain industry, we’re excited to be one of the first exchanges in Europe to be launching an STO

Dear community, two weeks ago we launched the first round of the STO and so far we received a lot of response from our community of investors!
Although we would like to provide more information already, the offering is still ongoing and as such, we can't disclose more concrete information. This is partially due to the fact that we are still processing documents from some investors that haven't yet supplied the necessary KYC documents for participation. Until we have complete clarity on the compliance side of the transactions, we cannot make any statements regarding the progress of the first round.
Furthermore, this month's focus is primarily on finalizing our advanced trading view through the use of internal trading simulations, and we'll be preparing our infrastructure for more optimizations around our trading services. We are also working on improvements to our crypto infrastructure to support more advanced handling of cryptocurrency deposits.
Thanks for your understanding, we will update everyone as soon as we are able to do so.
