Tokenized Fleet of Ships.
$OST is a single, closed-end token backed by a diversified ship fleet. Its value tracks the fleet's NAV, set by the shipping market, not us. Not a deed to any ship.
Shipping moves 80% of world trade, yet it's one of the least accessible asset classes.
- Vessels cost tens of millions, so smaller investors are locked out.
- Positions are illiquid and opaque.
- Token-first projects with no assets or NAV beneath them collapsed.
One transparent token that represents a diversified, operating fleet.
Asset-first and proof-first. Investors get pro-rata exposure to the fleet's market NAV, run by established maritime operators, with value set by the market and computed by independent parties.
Built to be trusted
One token, a whole fleet
$OST is a single token backed by the market NAV of a diversified fleet of tankers, bulk, and other tonnage. Diversification is built in.
NAV set by the market, not by us
Vessel values come from an independent broker panel (an expert S&P broker plus VesselsValue) and an independent administrator. The operator, the valuer and the administrator are separate parties.
Closed-end, no run risk
Capital stays in the ships. You exit by selling to another eligible investor, not by forcing a liquidation. No liquidity mismatch.
Transparent and honest
Live NAV and proof-of-reserves. Profit is retained into NAV: no dividend, no staking; value compounds into the token rather than being paid out. We disclose the full cycle, including the downside.
A diversified mandate
A target allocation by market NAV, a diversification mandate the fleet grows into over time.
Sourcing & valuation
An established S&P shipbroker (operating since 1997) handles sourcing and cycle-timing, and holds the expert seat on the independent valuation panel.
Operations
An experienced third-party ship manager runs technical & commercial management and chartering across the fleet.
One token, three cycles
$OST is a single, diversified token. Tankers, bulk, and other tonnage run on different cycles: when one softens another often firms, so the blended NAV is smoother than any one segment. Tap a segment to see its pull on $OST. Illustrative (Base scenario) until the administrator publishes per-segment NAV.
What you actually own
$OST is backed by the fleet, not a deed to any single ship. Here is the chain, end to end.
You hold a token backed pro-rata by the fleet's NAV. You do not hold any ship's title; each vessel's title sits inside its own Marshall Islands SPV. That separation is exactly what keeps your position liquid, diversified, and bankruptcy-remote.
Pro-rata
Your share tracks the fleet's market NAV, not one ship's fortunes.
Bankruptcy-remote
One vessel, one SPV. A problem on one ship is ring-fenced from the rest.
Diversified
A single token spreads you across tankers, bulk, and other tonnage.
We show the downside too
$OST starts at $1.00. Shipping is cyclical, so the token can lose value in a weak market, and we show that openly. Illustrative, market-calibrated, 5-year projections:
Illustrative only, not a forecast. See disclaimer.
Closed-end, by design
The capital is in the ships and stays there, like a listed shipping company or a REIT. You exit by selling $OST to another eligible investor; the structure is never forced to cash you out. NAV is set by the ship market and is immune to token selling.
Downside is defended near NAV by a market maker, live transparency, and an accretive, gated buyback, funded by surplus, never a forced redemption.
