Citigroup and Goldman Sachs help companies go public, but they're not "stock launchpads" - they're IPO underwriters.
In the same way, Legion is not building a "token launchpad" - we're building the world's first ICO underwriter.
Crypto natives might not be familiar with term 'underwriter', so let me quickly explain.
In traditional markets when a company IPOs they work with an underwriter to do a few key things:
> help determine IPO pricing
> optimize distribution for the share (literally find buyers for the shares)
> organize research and 'roadshows' to educate primary and secondary market investors
> handle the regulatory process and compliance
> facilitate a smooth listing for public trading on exchanges like the NYSE or Nasdaq
> help stabilize the price (legally, not market manipulation - see 'greenshoe' exemptions for IPOs)
No one is doing this in crypto. There are many launchpads. But there are no ICO underwriters.
Legion is the world's first. We are covering token distribution, secondary trading, liquidity, sell-side research, regulatory compliance automation, etc all in one product.
Today's partnership with @krakenfx is an incredible step in this journey. Teams that work with Legion and Kraken will get regulatory compliant mass distribution to value-add token holders, Tier1 exchange liquidity, support with liquid funds, favorable market maker terms, and more.
It's time to cleanup the industry, maximize retail access, and bring ICOs to the next level.
