Bridging the gap
between stocks and crypto

NSDQ ETF COIN aims to create an ecosystem where investing in a major stock index is as easy as buying a crypto token on your phone. We offer the growth potential of NASDAQ stocks to a broad audience, all through a secure token that provides real asset ownership, continuous liquidity, and compliance. Additionally, we are introducing the advantages of cryptocurrency to the traditional financial world — such as the broader accessibility and lower entry barriers, as well as the favorable taxation conditions.

The NSDQ token

The NSDQ token is the centerpiece of the ecosystem – a digital security token that represents an investor’s stake in the NASDAQ ETF portfolio. Because the token qualifies as a security token, it confers an investment claim on real assets (unlike utility tokens). Every NSDQ token is backed by a fraction of the NASDAQ ETF holdings managed by the project. Its value is directly tied to the underlying assets’ value.

The NSDQ token is minted on-demand only when new investments come in, which flow towards the NASDAQ ETFs. This ensures that the token supply always corresponds to the assets held.

Frontend / User Interface

The user interface is the accessible front-end through which investors interact with the entire system. It includes a modern app and web dashboard where users can register, complete KYC, deposit funds, and manage their NSDQ token holdings. The frontend is designed for simplicity, making the experience akin to using a regular fintech or trading app rather than dealing directly with complicated blockchain operations.

The frontend serves as the user-centric layer that consolidates all ecosystem functions into a coherent, easy-to-use experience.

Investment Backend

The investment backend refers to the off-chain engine that takes investor funds and converts them into actual ETF investments. It is essentially the bridge between the blockchain and the traditional stock market. It handles price feeds, trade execution, and allocation of ETF shares to the project’s portfolio corresponding to each token issuance.

The investment backend is the asset management engine that guarantees NSDQ tokens are always backed by the correct amount of NASDAQ ETF assets.

Custody and Fund Management

We partner with a licensed custodian to hold the NASDAQ ETF assets on behalf of token holders. This means that for every NSDQ token in circulation, the equivalent value in ETF shares is kept in a segregated custodial account. The custodian’s role is to ensure the assets backing the tokens are safe (protected against loss, theft, or misuse) and to facilitate any necessary transactions (buying or selling ETF shares upon instructions from the investment backend).

The custodian provides an extra layer of trust and ensures financial integrity and continuity of the ecosystem’s asset pool.

Development phases

The infrastructure being built today lays the foundation for a broader tokenized investment ecosystem that bridges traditional financial markets and digital assets.

Phase 1

Creation and backing of the NSDQ token with the portfolio of NASDAQ ETFs.

Phase 2

Introduction of a Peer to Peer (P2P) exchange option that will allow users to swap between the NSDQ token and other cryptos between each other directly online or via a mobile app.

Phase 3

Introduction of further tokens for different indexes like S&P 500 and others, as well as a native ETF.

The advantages of NSDQ

The NSDQ ETF COIN (NSDQ) ecosystem offers a wide array of advantages that elevate it compared to traditional investment options in stock indexes.

Real asset backing

Most crypto tokens derive value solely from supply and demand dynamics, but NSDQ tokens represent ownership of a real financial asset (NASDAQ ETFs shares). This anchors the token’s value to a concrete portfolio of stocks, making it a more stable and transparent investment vehicle.

Lower barriers to entry

Investing in an index ETF has multiple requirements. With NSDQ tokens, anyone with as little as $500 can get started, even without a brokerage account. This opens stock market opportunities to the “small investor” who can now participate in the NASDAQ’s growth with modest sums.

Unlimited access

Unlike stock markets that operate only during business hours, the NSDQ token can be traded 24/7 on crypto exchanges and the NSDQ web / mobile apps. Investors can thus buy or sell tokens at any time from any location, even when the NASDAQ market is closed, which makes NSDQ unique.

Liquidity and flexibility

The NSDQ token introduces liquidity features beyond a normal ETF. Investors can hold the token as a long-term investment, confident in its underlying value, but they can also react quickly to market conditions. An investor could find a buyer on crypto exchanges or via the mobile app at any time.

Tax efficiency
potential

Moving from NSDQ tokens to an existing crypto stablecoin may not trigger a taxable event in some countries, unlike selling an ETF for fiat. This means investors could rebalance in case of a bearish market or “park” gains in a stable asset without immediate tax impact, then later convert to fiat.

Compliance and security

The project is built with regulatory compliance from the ground up. Every investor undergoes Know-Your-Customer (KYC) verification and anti-money-laundering checks. Meanwhile, the actual funds and ETF shares are managed by licensed custodians and brokers for safety.
