American Marconi Wireless News - RSRV Exploring Fully-Tokenized Hotel Ownership Products With Unique Utility Features

Platform will be supported by tZERO's new special purpose broker-dealer for digital asset securities custody

RSRV, a hotel ownership platform, launched earlier this year in collaboration with Elevated Returns and tZERO - a leading regulated financial technology company backed by Intercontinental Exchange (ICE) - announces its plans to leverage tZERO's new special purpose broker-dealer to support unique digital asset securities offerings, complemented by loyalty features.

RSRV was launched to provide a new, innovative way for accredited investors to purchase equity in luxury and lifestyle hotel properties and obtain exclusive benefits. A distinct benefit is that RSRV shares can be exchanged for hotel rooms at a fixed rate, which allows its investors to lock in room rates. Alternatively, investors would have been able to trade shares in a secondary market hosted by a broker-dealer subsidiary of tZERO. RSRV shareholders may also be eligible for other valuable benefits - not available to the general public - that may include VIP experiences, exclusive access to hotel events, and substantial discounts on various hotel rooms and services.

In September 2024, tZERO Digital Asset Securities was admitted to FINRA's membership as a new SEC-registered Special Purpose Broker-Dealer for digital asset securities custody. Now that tZERO and its broker-dealer subsidiaries offer end-to-end services for digital asset securities trading, RSRV plans to explore the utilization of a blockchain based shareholder registry coupled with automated smart contract technology, to enable RSRV to enhance the investor ownership experience by giving investors direct access to ownership records and automating the way benefits are offered, without sacrificing a path to liquidity on tZERO's brokerage platform for all offerings on the RSRV platform. This path would also obviate the need for greatly limiting or sacrificing blockchain technology features or relying on cumbersome workarounds with non-broker-dealer digital asset custodians.

In furtherance of this plan, RSRV will be putting on hold its previously announced RSRV Aspen offering as it explores unrolling new securities offerings with unique digital utility features that can take advantage of tZERO's digital asset security custody capabilities. This would include the full digitization of existing St. Regis Aspen tokens that already trade on the marketplace operated by a broker-dealer subsidiary of tZERO. Since 2018, Elevated Returns disrupted the traditional real estate market by offering investors indirect ownership in the St. Regis Aspen Resort - as well as deployment of a separate tokenized loyalty program.

"RSRV is designed to be scalable and to reward holders, being able to build in features unique to digital assets is something we want to take advantage of," said Stephane De Baets RSRV Acting CEO.

"tZERO and its broker-dealer subsidiaries are committed to offering a compliant custody solution for digital asset securities that are traded on tZERO's brokerage platform. We are delighted that RSRV is looking to re-envision its securities offering in a manner that will be transformative for its investors and platform users, with the support of tZERO's ground-breaking special purpose broker dealer as a custody solution," said David Goone, CEO of tZERO Group, Inc., the parent company of tZERO's broker-dealer subsidiaries.
