Hey guys, time for another review.

This time I chose for Swarm, a very unknown gem that is about to make some big waves in the Security Token space.

Let me start this off with the usual financial disclaimer: I did not receive any sort of payment for the writing of this article. I am personally invested in SWM but you should not take this as financial advice, because it’s not. Everyone should make their own decisions and do their due dilligence when it comes to investing.

Let’s get into it. What is Swarm?

Swarm is a blockchain agnostic STO platform

Their platform allows an STO issuer to launch their token on any chain supported by Swarm. Currently $ETH $XLM and $TRX are supported with many more on the way. Their full platform is about to release next week and from the sneak peak I have seen I can say it looks all but incredible.

Swarm is going to make it extremely easy to issue or invest in an STO. They’ve taken some time to get through all regulatory hurdles but have finally reached the point where they are ready to launch. This leaves us with the opportunity to buy 92% below ico price right now.

This project is designed to be a self sustainable issuance platform run by public participation (nodes) and open for anyone to issue on. It’s a non profit decentralized network that will act as a tool set for other issuance platforms, sto advisories, exchanges, blockchain consultants and more to utilize. It’s an open by design, open source, blockchain agnostic solution — a one of a kind all inclusive STO ecosystem. This isn’t just a concept, things are starting to roll out and the interest among STO related businesses is insane.

With each STO launched, the issuer is forced to buy SWM from the market and stake them for the whole duration of the lifecycle of the STO. This creates great demand for $SWM and is beneficial for the issuer as well as this way the whole issuing is actually free for them. Once the STO lifecycle is complete the staked SWM will be returned to them. Swarm has already received many praises and demand due to this system. Which shows itself in the huge list of upcoming STO’s.

If STO issuers get their SWM back after the lifecycle of the STO won’t they just dump it right after?

Possible and I will even say it’s very likely. however this does not have me worried one bit. You see the average lifecycle of an STO is expected to be between 3–5 years. So this means the issuers’ staked tokens will be locked out of circulation for this same period. By the time they unlock many other STO’s will have launched and in turn have locked up their SWM. The more popular Swarm becomes in offerings the more SWM will be locked up. This will create a cycle with constantly renewing demand for the SWM token.
