Dinari has partnered with FINRA approved clearing houses such as Alpaca Securities to make sure that every dShare is backed 1-1 with the US securities (for example, for every TSLA.d issued, a TSLA stock is purchased by Dinari to back it). dShare holders will receive dividends distributed to the underlying shares in the form of onchain stablecoin, USD+ which makes it financially equivalent to the shares themselves. All dShares can be redeemed for the market price of the underlying stock. dShares APIs are for any regional neobank, crypto trading app, fiat on-/off-ramp, etc outside of the United States that want to seamlessly offer tokenized US Shares, ETFs, REITs (dShares) exposure to their users. Our current API partners have integrated with Dinari to offer dShares millions of users including companies like Fasset, Cadana, Xade and more. \n\nTeam Members:\n-Gabriel Otte, CEO (cofounder/CEO/CTO of Freenome) - https://www.linkedin.com/in/gabrielotte/ \n-Chas Rampenthal, CLO (15+ years as General Counsel at LegalZoom, ex ClearChannel, US Navy) - https://www.linkedin.com/in/chasramp/ \n-Jake Timothy, CTO (8+ years at Northrop Grumman) - https://www.linkedin.com/in/jake-timothy/  \n-Brandon Ooi, CPO (cofounder/CTO of Crunchyroll, ex Samba TVStripe/Yahoo/HOTorNOT) - https://www.linkedin.com/in/brandonooi/  \n-Garrett Wong, CFO (ex Shutterfly, HP, UBS) - https://www.linkedin.com/in/garrettwong/\n-Cedric Han, Engineering Lead (cofounder of Cruncyroll, ex Yahoo/Tumblr) - https://www.linkedin.com/in/cedrichan/  \n-Young Kim, Head of Engineering (ex CrunchyRoll) - https://www.linkedin.com/in/y-kim/  \n-Matthew Eisner, Head of Product & Growth (ex Samba TV/Algorand/NTT DATA/Startupbootcamp/Touch Surgery/Hackster.io/etc) - https://www.linkedin.com/in/matteisn/  \n-+ an additional 7-8 employees\n\nCompliance and Legal Progress:\nSEC Transfer Agent Registration: Received in 2022\nFINRA Clearing Houses Partnership: Alpaca Securities and FinCEN registered in 2023\nFINRA Broker Dealer NMA: Dinari Securities registered in 2024\nDinari Ltd: Off-shore entity in Bermuda established in 2024\"", "lastUpdated": 0, "projectGithub": "dinaricrypto", "projectTwitter": "DinariGlobal"}, "recipient": "0xAdFeB630a6aaFf7161E200088B02Cf41112f8B98"}}
