What we do
Okanii is building the Internet of Value infrastructure for global commerce. We are experts in banking, payments, cybersecurity and cloud infrastructure, and we are solving some of the world's toughest problems in partnership with global institutions.
We license this platform to Banks, Telcos, Central Banks, Custodians, Exchanges, and Operators.
The internet has been around for over 20 years and we can send an email and any type of data to anyone instantly, but moving money or assets around is extremely slow, costly, and complex. It's about time that we can move any value to anyone just as easily.

How it works
We license mints that securely mint anything and provide everything needed to connect these mints to everything and everyone for any use-case.
Tokenize $0.01 to $1B, USD to YEN, Gold to Wheat, Bitcoin to Ripple ...
1. Any mint can tokenize any asset for free
Okanii’s de-centralized mints can tokenize any asset instantly, with quantum-proof crypto at virtually zero risk and zero cost.
2. Your customers can store any asset anywhere
Customers have instant access to all of their assets and can use them anywhere for all use-cases
(P2P, B2C, B2B ...)
3. Use these tokens anywhere
By truly digitizing the cash model, these tokens are truly ubiquitous – any asset, any use-case, any transfer method.
4. Coins are validated, not the person
Each token/digital coin is validated, not the person, virtually eliminating cost, fraud, theft, and disputes.
Solution
Okanii’s Digital Asset Tokenization (DAT) platform was specifically designed for institutions to issue, track, and manage any financial instrument with a 90% reduction in cost over existing processes.
Generating quantum-proof individual tokens and validating the individual tokens versus identity, eliminates the vast majority of problems and costs associated with transferring value between any two parties.
Each individual token carries all of the necessary properties (intrinsic value, security, scalability, privacy, etc.) within itself to allow for universal ubiquity ... this is a game-changer and flips the entire paradigm upside down.
Technology
Okanii’s DAT platform is built for designing decentralized tokenization marketplaces to securely transfer any asset instantly between anyone, anywhere, and meets the highest standards of security, integrity, and availability for mission-critical use cases in financial services.
Decentralized mints
Federating the mints/DBs between all FIs/custodians allows for unmatched scalability, sustainability, and efficiency.
Ubiquity
Tokenizing assets into self-contained separate individual tokens allows for interoperability between all asset types and all use-cases.
Identity & privacy
Validating the individual tokens versus a person's identity/transaction history eliminates fraud/theft and reduces operational costs to the lowest levels in the industry.
Multi-asset wallets
Hold any asset in your wallet or anywhere else. Programmable individual digital assets without the need for any rail.
Creating real change
Imagine a digital cash solution that can never be lost or stolen, works for every payment use-case instantly in any transaction size, provides loyalty incentives for every purchase, provides 24/7 access to your money anywhere, in any currency. Your identity and bank account can never be compromised, and you have privacy over your transactions and data. Your cash comes to you instead of you going to your cash. This is why we built Okanii and this is just the beginning.
100x - THE TIME IS NOW
