Ohanae

Its Web3-powered platform combines asset tokenization, a US-dollar-pegged stablecoin (Ohanae Coin), self-sovereign identity, and an alternative trading system with automated market maker technology to handle the full lifecycle of digital asset securities - from issuance and Regulation A+ crowdfunding through custody, clearing, settlement, and secondary trading. Founded by Greg Hauw, the company operates FINRA-registered broker-dealer Ohanae Securities LLC and targets the multi-trillion-dollar OTC securities market.
