SDF Announces Strategic Investment in DSTOQ.  Denelle Dixon spoke about SDFs first enterprise fund investment in DSTOQ.

The CEO started, stating, hi, everyone we wanted to share some really exciting news today. We told you in November that we were going to start the enterprise fund up and make investments out of the enterprise fund that support not just the Stellar Network, but also the ecosystem at large.

Dixon further stated, “Today, we have made our first investment in an organization called DSTOQ.  It is a great organization that is very much in alignment with us.”

The focus is to create an interface and an application that can be used just one the smartphone that can allow users from all over the world to invest in these stocks, bonds, cryptocurrencies, funds, and more. DSTOQ is now a part of the Stellar Ecosystem. They were actually a member of the ecosystem already, but now they are more firmly a member based on the enterprise fund. 

Sydney Ifergan, the crypto expert, tweeted:  “This is indeed amazing, Stellar Lumens and DSTOQ are creating equitable access to the global financial system.”
