On July 19, 2018, JPMorgan filed a patent to issue asset-backed tokens on a distributed ledger.<\/p>\n<h2>JPMorgan Prepares for Wave of Regulated ICOs<\/h2>\n<p>Filed in January, JPMorgan's <a href=\"http:\/\/appft.uspto.gov\/netacgi\/nph-Parser?Sect1=PTO2&Sect2=HITOFF&u=%2Fnetahtml%2FPTO%2Fsearch-adv.html&r=1&f=G&l=50&d=PG01&p=1&S1=20180204190&OS=20180204190&RS=20180204190\">patent application<\/a> to issue virtual receipts comprised of tokens on a distributed ledger was published this Thursday, July 19 by the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office\u00a0(USPTO).<\/p>\n<p>A security token is created when an asset-owner entrusts the deposited asset to a qualified custodian, who will then process and authorize a virtual receipt comprised of a token and record the transaction on a distributed ledger.<\/p>\n<p>Security tokens require approval and regulation by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), limiting the exchanges where they may be available for trading.<\/p>\n<p>In the patent application, it states:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>&#8221; &#8230; a method for managing asset or obligation-backed virtual receipts on a distributed system may include (1) receiving confirmation of a deposit of an underlying asset, wherein the deposit encumbers the underlying asset; (2) receiving authorization to issue a virtual receipt for the deposited underlying asset; and (3) executing issuance of the virtual receipt by writing the transaction to a distributed ledger.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>In the patent, JPMorgan mentions that a use-case for the distributed ledger would be &#8220;a securities offering (e.g., an IPO),&#8221; which in a blockchain environment would essentially function as an initial coin offering for newly issued security tokens.<\/p>\n<p>The patent also includes a use-case to issue a &#8220;pool\/basket of assets,&#8221; which are seemingly resemblant of a cryptocurrency exchange traded\u00a0fund (ETF).<\/p>\n<p>The patent defines the virtual receipt issued on the blockchain as:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>&#8220;Virtual Depositary Receipts, or &#8220;Virtual Receipts,&#8221; are asset or obligation-backed electronic tokens that may provide investors, brokers, custodians, and clearing firms with a means to link an underlying asset or obligation with its digital representation on a distributed system for the purposes of ownership tracking and transfer; transaction clearing and settlement; asset origination, distribution and securitization&#8221;<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<h2>Institutional Firms Pivot Towards Cryptocurrency Sector<\/h2>\n<p>Despite a persisting cryptocurrency bear market, institutional investor interest has risen to an all-time high.<\/p>\n<p>Revealed\u00a0in their <a href=\"https:\/\/grayscale.co\/digital-asset-investment-report\/\">H1 2018 report<\/a>, Grayscale Investments showed that 56% of incoming capital came from institutional investors.
