GBX-Gibraltar Blockchain Exchange.
Reality about any extraordinary thought is that it is effectively comprehended and that its need bodes well. This is the situation of the Gibraltar Blockchain Exchange (GBX).
The Gibraltar Stock Exchange
The primary premise of the Gibraltar Stock Exchange is the quickness in the administration of quotations, whatever the item you pick, and also costs that are even lower than those enlisted in Luxembourg and Switzerland.
The Gibraltarian stock trade is led by Marcus Killick, who for a long time headed the Financial Services Commission of Gibraltar, a position he cleared out last February and touched base in the wake of doing different obligations in the budgetary part of the Isle of Man and the islands Alligator.
Notwithstanding this budgetary instrument, the production of the Chamber of Commerce, the formation of the Investment Bank of Gibraltar, with 19 million euros of open capital at its introduction to the world, are alternate legs of the drive to the monetary part that means to do the administration of Picardo. This substance will supplant Barclays and will offer administrations to retail customers as a separating component.
The team at the Gibraltar Stock Exchange (GSX), the parent company of GBX, had been studying blockchain technology for some time. In November of 2015, they began to plan the “Crypto Securities Exchange”. In mid-2016, the GSX admitted to include in its regulated Main Market one of the first Bitcoin Asset-Backed Securities (ABS) in the world.
Soon after, the team focused on the emerging world of token sales. It was a market that was quickly recognized as lacking clear rules and practices, investor protection and sufficient processes to examine the claims of issuers. In his experience, the market lacked government. Without it, this promising sector would never attract sustainable institutional investments, or the kind of resources needed to ensure long-term growth.
The need for a clear and professional type of structure is what GSX saw, understanding that now is the best opportunity to contribute and for this it launched a new subsidiary: the GBX.
His plans, however, extend far beyond the creation of a chip selling platform and the exchange of cryptocurrencies. The GSX GROUP intends to build a complete fintech ecosystem that offers all possible services and the support that issuers, entrepreneurs and investors need within a transparent and regulated framework.
So, how does it work?
1. The role of Gibraltar as a jurisdiction is very important.
Gibraltar is a great support for blockchain companies. In October of 2017, the Government of Gibraltar, after a long period of consultation, published the Regulatory Framework for Distributed Accounting Technology or “DLTRF”. As of January 1 of the year 2018, it is in force. It is a non-prescriptive, rule-based regulatory format that allows companies the flexibility they need to work with a new technology without committing to robust standards.
The DLTRF standard recognizes some very important points that others could not understand in the past. It is not possible to regulate the cryptocurrencies themselves, but it is possible and reasonable to establish standards for individuals and companies that act on behalf of a third party.
The creation of this framework means that the Government of Gibraltar is taking measures to help protect investors by ensuring that companies operating in the territory are legally fit and adequate.
Therefore, GBX is fully compatible with DLTRF. It intends to be the first exchange under the supervision of the Gibraltar regulator and obtain authorization from the regime.
2. The most important thing to understand is the GBX listing process.
GBX establishes a clear listing process to ensure that applicants on the list follow its rules.
First, a project must designate a Sponsoring Firm. The sponsoring firms are organizations that have been licensed by GBX to bring lists to the market.
They act to ensure that applicants on the list do not limit themselves to praising the rules, but that they actively comply with the letter and spirit of the rules.
These Sponsors, ensure that a project is eligible to launch a token sale and a list in GBX, advise on how to comply with the rules and work with a project to complete and submit your application.
The sponsoring companies also participate in a stakeout mechanism. They must have a portion of the tokens they bring to the market.
After inclusion, the sponsoring companies are also responsible for ensuring that the projects comply with their ongoing obligations, which mostly have to do with the disclosure of information.
It can be said that the sponsoring firms support the initiatives that lead to the market and their commercial reputation is at stake.
All of this is designed to help ensure that projects arriving at GBX act in accordance with a higher standard of business practice and make a sincere effort to do so.
3. The role of the sponsoring companies of GBX is essential to guarantee the well-being of the market.
As such, any company aspiring to become a GBX sponsor must demonstrate the quality of its management team and its solid experience in the blockchain.
An important set of things to consider are the expectations that the GBX will have of token buyers.
It is important that the sales of tokens released in GBX and the projects behind them comply with a higher standard. We work to ensure that the products offered are of superior quality, but it is also true that the issuers and the GBX itself have some expectations as to who buys the tokens.
The Know Your Customer or “KYC” and Anti Money Laundering (AML) procedures will be implemented in GBX. In the world in general, in 2017, we proved that the source of the funds was not necessarily a problem, but from now on, at GBX, symbolic buyers will have to prove who they are and reveal where their funds come from.
