Why you should listen
Trillions of US Dollars worth of rare assets, like gold and cryptocurrencies, are locked away in vaulting facilities and digital wallets around the world. The Standard.io, a next generation monetary system, unlocks this vast stored value. It enables users to generate a stable virtual currency called “Standard Euro”, with more stablecoins based on other fiat currencies coming soon.
This is achieved by locking up collateral in smart contracts, called Smart Vaults. This allows people to spend their locked up funds without selling their assets.
The protocol is governed by a community of “Standard Token” holders which form a DAO. The Standard DAO will manage the protocol by making key decisions utilizing smart voting mechanisms and prediction markets.The innovative concept of stable virtual currencies backed by rare assets constitutes a new privatized and decentralized Gold Standard for the 21st century.
