Steven Gaertner, the head of Tiamonds, discusses how they are revolutionizing the diamond industry by tokenizing diamonds on the blockchain. Tiamonds is a Web3 marketplace that allows people to easily trade and own diamonds without the need for physical shipment or importation taxes. They purchase real-world diamonds from renowned dealers, validate them through a partnership with LCX, and store them in a physical vault in Liechtenstein. The diamonds are then tokenized as ERC-721 non-fungible tokens and can be traded on their marketplace or other platforms. Tiamonds also provides transparency, traceability, and the ability to earn royalties on secondary sales. Tiamonds is a project that tokenizes real-world assets, specifically diamonds, on the blockchain. By offering ownership of actual diamonds through NFTs and backing it up with a safe vault in Liechtenstein, they provide a distinctive value proposition. The project aims to bring transparency, liquidity, and accessibility to the diamond market. Tiamonds also introduces the concept of automatic staking, where token holders receive TIA tokens as rewards for holding their diamond NFTs. The project is expanding to other blockchains to reduce gas fees and increase accessibility. Tiamonds is open to collaborations and partnerships with other projects in the space.
