Invest in Business. Crowd-up is creating a decentralised funding platform that will digitize equity to implement a quick, secure and efficient marketplace for private business Crowd-up is creating a decentralised funding platform that will digitize equity to implement a quick, secure and efficient marketplace for private businesses to raise capital. We will achieve this by removing the market intermediaries that currently exist in traditional platforms, such as; brokers, underwriters and centralised financial institutions.

Crowd-up will operate in a manner that is similar to a venture capital fund. Investors will buy into the ‘fund’ by purchasing our digital currency - CDUs (Crowd-Up tokens). These tokens will allow investors to invest in companies raising funds on our platform, therefore operating with the buying power of a venture fund but maintaining the flexibility of angel investing.

Crowd-Up will go beyond being a matchmaker for startups and investors and level the playing field by opening early funding to a global investment/entrepreneur marketplace. This will break down the barriers that have only allowed “moneyed” investors or traditional VC’s to participate in early funding opportunities, and gives entrepreneurs looking to raise capital another avenue to raise funds other than traditional Venture Capital circuits.

Quantler
Quantler is a blockchain for creating, analysing, sharing and running of decentralized structured investment products. Create structured products (such as an ETF) in equities or cryptocurrencies using themes. As there are a lot of the tokenized products being launched (currently over 1 900 available) the structured products for these assets are lacking behind (such as sector-based ETFs). Using Quantler’s blockchain anyone can create structured products (for regular assets such as Equities and cryptocurrencies) and run them on a decentralized network (much like smart contracts). Quantler also allows for regular assets, for this market Quantler’s solution is more flexible and has a lower costs base (targeted for exchanges, family offices and investment managers). The QUANT token’s intrinsic value is dependent on the AUM (asset under management) by the entire network. Quantler is like a Vanguard or BlackRock, but then in the form of a network.

Digiwills
Digiwills is a service based on a smart contract that aims to ensure that your digital assets are not lost or fall into the wrong hands. Thanks to the blockchain technology, with this innovative service it will be possible to safely leave all your digital assets. Such as: Access to Cryptographic Portfolios, Exchange, bank accounts, emails and passwords of your social networks and everything that only you have access to. With this service we can leave everything in order for our families to enjoy our digital assets. Decentralized The service will be based on an smart contract in the blockchain, this means that no entity or person will have access or control to the data of the users. Only the users themselves and the successors will have access, once the information is sent to them. Reliable The data will be stored in the blockchain, encrypted with the owner's key. Once in the blockchain there will be no way to alter or read them without the owner’s key. Safe Being a decentralized service, the data will be replicated throughout the network so losing them will be impossible. How it works On the platform, the user will be able to create an account where they can save sensitive data, such as: users and passwords, details of bank accounts or any information they wish to be grouped in blocks (Wills), in the blockchain in a secure way, to these blocks the user can assign successors which will receive the information contained in the block (Will). These blocks (Wills) will be encrypted using the unique key of each user, therefore only the owner will have access to said information and his assigned successors once he meets certain criteria. The service will consume an amount of the Digiwills Token (DGW) daily, as a condition to keep your data retained. If account run out of funds, the system will send the data to successors.
