Legend Siam Security Token Offering Facilitated by VEWC

Curated STO

Via East West Capital has recently opened up regarding an STO which they curated recently. This STO was a capital generation event which saw the distribution of tokenized securities associated with a cultural theme park in Thailand, known as Legend Siam.

Legend Siam Tokens

In this event, investors gained access to what the issuer calls ‘Legend Siam Tokens (LST)’. These tokens were treated as securities, and were offered through Reg. D guidelines under the SEC.

While details on the tokens, themselves, are scarce at this time, it appears as though they took shape as some type of real-estate backed token, based on the cultural theme park.
