We also explore the process of STO launches and legal considerations. We introduce popular security tokens in the current blockchain space and talk about how to develop a security token DApp including smart contract development for ERC1404 tokens. Later youll learn to build frontend side functionalities to interact with smart contracts. Finally we discuss stablecoin technical design functionalities for issuing and operating STO tokens by interacting with Ethereum smart contracts.By the end of this book you will have learned more about STOs and gained a detailed knowledge of building relevant applications―all with the help of practical examples.What you will learnUnderstand the basic requirements for launching a security token offeringExplore various US securities laws governing the offering of security digital tokensGet to grips with the stablecoin concept with the help of use casesLearn how to develop security token decentralized applicationsUnderstand the difference between ERC-20 and ERC-721 tokensLearn how to set up a development environment and build security tokensExplore the technical design of stablecoinsWho this book is forThis book is ideal for blockchain beginners and business user developers who want to quickly master popular Security Token Offerings and stablecoins.
