How is STOKR different from equity crowdfunding?

On STOKR, ventures issue hybrid equity or preferential equity to the investors via security tokens on the blockchain. The hybrid equity represents right to future profit participation or future revenue participation. The investors have limited voting rights, limited only towards the terms and conditions of the investment contract. The security tokens issued on STOKR provide investors with unlimited upside potential, compared to many equity crowdfunding platforms.

Also, STOKR does not shy away from EU capital market laws. We strongly believe that access to capital market is highly needed for small and medium European companies and the same is only possible by reducing entry barriers. For that, STOKR leverages open-source Blockchain technology and the umbrella structure of EU capital market laws.

We got rid of the nominee structures that most of the equity crowdfunding platforms use. With STOKR hosted ventures, you can establish a direct relationship, without any third-party middlemen.
