Two years since invention, Ethereum has already disrupted one industry big time. Venture Capital and traditional equity funding. Here's yet another disruptive solution.
DGCAMP - Decentralised Global Capital Markets Platform is potentially one of the biggest real world applications for Blockchain. DGCAMP takes direct aim at investment banks and intermediaries. DGCAMP can raise capital for anyone without the need for investment banks and intermediaries. DGCAMP envisages a smart contract architecture replacing the manual processes involved in investment banking, in the issuance of corporate equity and debt securities — processes characterised by opacity and high fees. (Read our preliminary paper on http://himalayalabs.com/Himalaya-Executive-Summary2.pdf )
"Intermediaries in complex markets thrive on “the theory of opacity” and deliberately propagate the theory to further their own interests. The theory simply states that opacity of a process attracts intermediaries, and the more the opacity of a system or process, the more the intermediary can take away from the buyer or seller surplus. DGCAMP aims to do away with opacity in capital markets." - Arifa Khan.
DGCAMP is a new-age architecture where investors of capital and seekers of capital can interact freely, trustlessly and with minimum friction.
DGCAMP is a blockchain and smart-contract driven platform where issuers (public and private firms, governments, non-profit foundations) can access a broad class of primary market investors (both institutional and retail), complete a variety of automated transactions and processes (such as book building, auctions, syndications, dividend distributions) and can issue a broad array of digital assets to investors. Investors of every type, jurisdiction and financial status can use the platform to learn about investment opportunities , their regulatory aspects, risks and expected returns, to access due diligence reports, and to invest directly without having to go through intermediaries. A secondary market layer with buyers, sellers, arbitrageurs can easily complement this system. The system can first be envisaged as a single-country system and then extended to a multi-country global marketplace.
Capital allocation will be made in a cryptographically secure, quick, efficient, trustless way.
DGCAMP serves as a substitute to the current manually-intensive, time-bound and costly processes involved in the issuance of real world securities for corporates, governments, and non-profits.
Come Ethereum lovers, let's break the bank!

Capital Coin
Capital Coin ICO is a project aimed at creating a tokenised platform for Initial Public Offerings (IPOs) on a global, borderless, stock exchange (http://dgcamp.io). The Platform As a Service eco-system would offer an alternative to investment banks that are currently mandated to lead manage IPOs, and give corporates and other entities raising public capital a less costly, and more democratic option with instant access to global investors. The platform would run on smart contract algorithms. Based on the world's first paper published on decentralising capital markets by Arifa Khan. We believe we are the platform that SEC wold just love - going by SEC's testimony on Virtual Currencies 7 feb 2018. Capital Coin is currently doing private pre-ICO token subscription in February and is planning an ICO in a few months.
