About PECULIUM
PECULIUM has always been a company concerned with democratizing access to investment opportunities previously reserved for the very wealthy. The development of blockchain technology has been a key factor in enabling this ongoing financial revolution. But blockchain goes beyond offering a more efficient replica of the traditional financial ecosystem – it enables new business models that are better aligned with the incentives of all market players.
PECULIUM has developed saieve.io, a crypto asset management and investment platform that connects to exchange accounts and gives users instant access to approved trading strategies and investment portfolios . Founded to simplify trading strategy for users without any technical background, PECULIUM offers a growing offering of automated investment products.
Our goal is to reduce inequality in the global traditional financial system by enabling anyone, regardless of how much capital they hold, to have access to some of the best investment opportunities. PECULIUM is a cost-effective equalizer powered by PCL, the cornerstone of our ecosystem. The launch of the PECULIUM token (PCL) was another major step in this direction for PECULIUM. It is a community token designed to give back to our loyal community of investors, while encouraging long-term, predictable, and mutually beneficial investment positions in SAIEVE investment products. The token is issued to PECULIUM investors who choose to lock up (or stake) their assets under management for predefined periods of time, contributing to expected incremental returns on investments within the universe of investment products. By having greater certainty as to how long investment positions in PECULIUM investment products will be held, opportunities to generate better investment returns become available.
PCL acts as an indirect revenue-sharing mechanism because it derives its value from product fee rebates that are used to buy and destroy PCL on the open market (so-called buy-and-burn). Parallels can be drawn between buy-and-burns and the phenomenon of share buybacks in traditional markets.
