Overstock.com (OSTK) issued a press release on July 30,
announcing it’s going to start paying investors a digital security
dividend. The first dividend will be paid on November 15 to investors
who own shares of OSTK before September 23, 2019. This is a brilliant
move that will drive up to 40,000 people to its digital securities
platform.
The typical Wall Street route to raise capital is complicated and
expensive… preventing most entrepreneurs from pursuing it. But digital
securities are disrupting the financial model for businesses and
individual investors as we speak.
Because of blockchain technology,
companies of all sizes can now issue digital securities and raise
money—just like the biggest companies on Wall Street. It’s efficient,
law abiding, faster, and less expensive…
And now it’s changing the way investors receive dividends.
The OSTK dividend will be paid at a ratio of 1:10. This means for
every 10 shares, investors will receive one share of digital voting
series A-1 preferred stock.
These series A-1 preferred shares currently trade on an alternative
trading system (ATS) operated by PRO Securities. This platform is owned
by Overstock’s subsidiary tZERO group.
Overstock’s goal is to revolutionize the current trading system by
increasing efficiency and settlement time for trades. This means driving
customers to a blockchain-based capital market through this new ATS.
There are about 40,000 OSTK shareholders who own about 37 million
shares. When the November 15 dividend is paid… those 40,000
shareholders will be directed to the new platform to trade their shares.
Over time, OSTK aims to open up this new platform to a whole variety
of securities—including private companies, real estate, debt
instruments, commodities, and more.
Blockchain technology is disrupting financial markets right in front
of our eyes. Not only will it be lucrative for trailblazing companies
like Overstock.com (OSTK)… but as new assets become available… it’ll
also provide enormous opportunity for individual investors.
