Devision and its partners search for top performing alternative assets. Owners / managers of suitable assets are approached, educated on the benefits of fractionalization, and guided through the Devision process.

Assets must be represented digitally on the blockchain to utilize the power of Devision. This is what NFTs were designed for -- to clearly represent ownership. By establishing a DAO legal wrapper along with the NFT, we ensure that the NFT legally denotes ownership of the asset.

The NFT asset is locked in a Devision Vault Contract and can only be unlocked if there is a successful auction (described below). The beauty of Web3 is shown here, as the process is entirely non-custodial. At no time throughout the process does anyone have access to your NFT.

With the NFT locked, tokens are minted to divvy up ownership. These tokens directly represent voting rights and ownership of the underlying (locked) NFT. This is thanks to the DAO legal wrapper from earlier, a legal entity that bridges DeFi to the physical world and sovereign law.

The initial batch of tokens can be sold in many ways. The default is essentially a Dutch auction, where the token price falls steadily until buyers are found, upon which buying pressure causes the price to rise. This mechanism helps set a market price, distribute tokens fairly, and provide the balancing pair to the liquidity pool.

To trade on Devision, simply connect any Cardano wallet and explore our markets. There are several ways you can buy tokens. One is with instant swapping in our liquidity pools. The other is setting a more traditional order in our smart contract order books. We plan to introduce purchases in USD and EUR soon.

One of the best parts of owning something is deciding what to do with it. Thanks to fractional tokens, these asset have a live price. This more accurate pricing means you can now use your tokens as collateral for loans. Borrow or lend using fractional tokens as backing.

By providing your tokens as liquidity for trading in one of the secondary market liquidity pools, you earn a yield from the trading fees generated whenever someone trades in that pool. Put your tokens to work and rest easy.

A token market (and the underlying asset) is set up initially to have "auction triggers." These can be a date, a price point, a trigger event, or some combination. Safeguards, like a minimum sell price, help ensure the asset sells above its current share price, so token holders are happy. This enables assets to return to private ownership and token holders to be rewarded.
