Universal Token UTKN

Universal Token, Inc. develops an open-source platform and developer infrastructure using the Universa Blockchain to enable real-world asset tokenization. The company focuses on creating the UTKN platform to allow secure transfer of digital assets across various wallets through robust Know Your Customer and Anti-Money Laundering processes. It does not engage in crypto asset trading and does not own crypto assets. The business plan centers on marketing a software solution to businesses and governments for integration with their systems.

Revenue is generated through the provision of a software solution to businesses and governments that enables them to offer the UTKN platform to their clients and populations. The company targets central and local banks with robust API systems for platform integration. Revenue streams arise from licensing, integration services, and ongoing support for the tokenization infrastructure. The company does not take custody of real-world asset tokens, as custody remains with the customer utilizing the platform.

The company operates through the following segments:

• Platform Development: This segment focuses on building and maintaining the open-source UTKN platform using the Universa Blockchain. It includes the creation of developer infrastructure and tools for mobile and digital access to the platform. The segment ensures the platform supports secure transfers of real-world asset tokens across various wallets.

• Regulatory Licensing and Compliance: This segment manages the application process for Digital Asset Service Provider licensing with the National Commission of Digital Assets in El Salvador.
