Realizing the shortcomings of ICOs, the blockchain community and potential investors embraced security token offerings (STOs) and stablecoins enthusiastically.In this book, we start with an overview of the blockchain technology along with its basic concepts. We introduce the concept behind STO, and cover the basic requirements for launching a STO and the relevant regulations governing its issuance. We discuss U.S. securities laws development in launching security digital tokens using blockchain technology and show some real use cases. We also explore the process of STO launches and legal considerations. We introduce popular security tokens in the current blockchain space and talk about how to develop a security token DApp, including smart contract development for ERC1404 tokens. Later, you'll learn to build frontend side functionalities to interact with smart contracts. Finally, we discuss stablecoin technical design functionalities for issuing and operating STO tokens by interacting with Ethereum smart contracts.By the end of this book, you will have learned more about STOs and gained a detailed knowledge of building relevant applications—all with the help of practical examples.What you will learnUnderstand the basic requirements for launching a security token offeringExplore various US securities laws governing the offering of security digital tokensGet to grips with the stablecoin concept with the help of use casesLearn how to develop security token decentralized applicationsUnderstand the difference between ERC-20 and ERC-721 tokensLearn how to set up a development environment and build security tokensExplore the technical design of stablecoinsWho this book is forThis book is ideal for blockchain beginners and business user developers who want to quickly master popular Security Token Offerings and stablecoins.
