Legal structure (Whitelist)

Permissioned (Distributed assets)

Overview

The legal architecture is designed to grant permissioned (whitelist) token holders direct economic performance to the returns of the underlying assets, as well as access to the value of the assets in the event of liquidation, with institutional-grade bankruptcy remoteness, segregation and liquidation rights all while minimizing regulatory friction with strong legal recourse.

The basic legal and entity architecture of the AXC permissioned token (distributed asset) is as follows:

ActorLegal DomicileRole
Licensed Virtual Asset Exchange or Licensed Broker DealerVariousProvides deposit, withdraw, and custody services in virtual assets for investors
Blockchain Service Provider (e.g. AXC)CaymansProvides support services
Underlying managerVariousManages the underlying asset according to investment strategy

For the permissionless tokens, the relationships between the entities, the service providers, and the token holders are governed by a framework of legal contracts:
