B.D.T.P.TMFunction #3 | Digital Trading This component of the B.D.T.P.TMplatform is being developed to trade electronic fungible shares (not tokens) of common and preferred registered securities on account in book-entry at US brokerage firms. Regulatory bodies (SEC and FINRA) will have full access to the transactions in real-time as Centralized Certificate Holders (upon request) to buying and selling Brokers. Others in the system will require permission from main certificate holders. All custodial and fiduciary duties remain the same for Broker-Dealers (BD s).

Cash and free trading shares only. It will function as a spot market for the particular company being traded.
