SEC compliant KodakCoin issued via SAFTs
The project was first announced in January that shot its stock prices to rise 3-fold which was expected to go live that month but due to regulatory issues, it got delayed.
Chell told Reuters in an interview:
“We really took a step back and decided that we would ensure that all Ts were crossed and Is dotted before we embark on a public sale. We wanted to make sure that we got it right.”
In order to comply with the rules of the US SEC, KODAKOne took the route of SAFT for their coin offering. By issuing SAFTs, companies don’t need to register with the SEC as only accredited investors can participate in the token sales. The SAFTs of KodakCoin are being sold for $1 per piece.
Jan Denecke, the CEO of Wenn Digital shared his thoughts on SAFTs:
“We are excited to offer the SAFT and the rights to the underlying KODAKCoin Token in a manner structured to fully comply with an exemption to the SEC’s registration requirements. Our goal with this offering is utmost security and transparency, working to bring digital tokens to investors by adhering to industry best practices and in a manner that we hope instills public confidence in the crypto space.”
Reportedly, the pre-sale of the tokens has already been conducted by Wenn Digital to the accredited investors that raised approximately $10 million. Though the capital requirement of the company is $20 million, Chell said demand is much bigger, “I think $50 million is our sweet spot.”
