The blockchain pioneer began with a moonshot: rebuild capital markets. Now its more practical pitch is regulated plumbing - one stack for issuing, trading, holding and connecting tokenized assets.
Ohanae is a New York-based fintech company building regulated market infrastructure for tokenized securities. 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.
Startale Group is a Singapore-headquartered Web3 infrastructure company building the onchain stack for finance, entertainment, and consumer applications. Led by founder and CEO Sota Watanabe - who also created Astar Network - Startale operates a vertically integrated portfolio spanning the Sony-backed Ethereum Layer 2 Soneium, the Astar Network, the Strium blockchain for tokenized securities and real-world assets, the JPYSC and USDSC stablecoins, and a consumer Startale App. Backed by Sony and SBI, the company aims to bring Web3 to billions by bridging traditional finance with onchain systems.
