Apart for the KYC procedure that is required by law, the investment procedure can be completed in no more than 3-clicks and all the major fiat currencies and crypto currencies are accepted. Investors do not have to worry about opening a blockchain wallet, dealing with tokens or understanding how the blockchain works... they will receive the digital contracts (the tokens) by email once the payment is confirmed! Considering that many financial players as JP Morgan and others academic as the Frankfurt School of Finance and Management believe in a transition of traditional finance into the digital world, we would like to become a player of this transition.” - Mauro Andriotto, CEO of EDSX.
