Ethereum Blockchain

Canamex isn't the only blockchain firm looking to tokenize gold and silver by any means. What makes the platform particularly unique is the developer’s choice to utilize ERC-20 compliant tokens. This maneuver places the company in an ever growing class of Ethereum-based security token offerings.

Additionally, utilizing the Ethereum blockchain comes with a number of significant advantages. For one, Ethereum is one of the most secure blockchains in the world. Also, ERC-20 tokens continue to see huge developments in terms of platforms and interoperability. This year saw the emergence of decentralized ERC-20 token exchanges such as ForkDelta. In turn, this provides token holders with more liquidity in the market as it continues to expand.
