Among the broadly discussed topics were Libra, the governance & monetary policy for digital currencies, the blockchain use-cases and upcoming LATOKEN’s token sale of USPX, an economic interest in SpaceX.

“We expect millions of potential investors to come to the capital markets and with LATOKEN they will get far easier access to existing asset classes, including idea-stage companies and Pre-IPO companies”, said Valentin Preobrazhensky during his opening speech of the 6th BEF, that LATOKEN organizes during the past years.

One of such Pre-IPO assets that attracted special attention during the forum was USPX, a token representing an economic interest in SpaceX. The space industry projected to grow sharply with a current valuation of $360 billion in 2018 to $1.75 trillion by 2040, according to Satellite Industry Association.

The 1st token sale round is scheduled on 31st October. The structure of the token sale is available on LATOKEN IEO Launchpad page.

According to the latest Cambridge Associates data, this number is even higher - 48%. It well diverse with other asset classes like fixed-income and public equities with only 3% annual return.
