From Physical Steel to Digital Liquidity
A transparent, four-step process that transforms the world’s most critical physical asset—shipping capacity—into a secure, liquid, and accessible digital token.
CONTEU is not abstract financial engineering. It is a logical bridge between the physical world of logistics and the digital world of finance. This page explains exactly how that bridge works, from a container on a ship to the CTU token in your wallet.
The CONTEU Process: A Step-by-Step Journey
Step 1: We Start with Real, Revenue-Generating Assets
It all begins in the physical world. CONTEU Logistics, Inc., our operational arm, functions as a licensed Non-Vessel Operating Common Carrier (NVOCC).
- We Secure Capacity: We enter into contracts with global shipping lines to manage a growing fleet of container slots (TEUs).
- We Move Cargo: We provide freight-forwarding services to businesses, moving their goods across the globe.
- We Generate Revenue: This core business generates real, auditable revenue from freight margins, service fees, and asset leasing.
This is our foundation. We are a profitable logistics company first—ensuring the ecosystem is anchored to tangible economic activity.
Step 2: We Digitize Physical Capacity into Tokens
This is where the transformation happens: Real-World Asset (RWA) tokenization.
- The Pegging Formula: 1 CONTEU (CTU) Token = 1 cm³ of verified container space.
- Issuance & Backing: Our fixed supply of 33.1 trillion CTU represents the full capacity of 1 million TEUs. Tokens are only “backed” as physical capacity is onboarded.
- The Digital Deed: Each CTU is a digital title—a claim on a standardized fraction of our logistics infrastructure.
Step 3: We Create a Liquid & Accessible Market
Once digitized, value is unlocked—live on the BNB Smart Chain.
- 24/7 Trading: Buy, sell, or trade CTU instantly on DEXs like PancakeSwap—turning illiquid steel into dynamic liquidity.
- Global Access: Anyone with a wallet can now own a piece of global trade infrastructure.
- Regulatory Oversight: All activity aligns with our CBB-licensed VASP partner, ATME—ensuring compliance from day one.
Step 4: We Fuel a Virtuous Cycle of Growth
Physical and digital layers reinforce each other in a self-sustaining flywheel:
| Phase | Action | Outcome |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Digital Capital → Physical Expansion | Token proceeds fund more TEUs, IoT hardware, and market expansion. |
| 2 | Physical Growth → Token Strength | More containers = higher intrinsic value per CTU (fixed supply). |
| 3 | Operational Revenue → Token Support | Logistics profits fund buybacks & staking rewards—creating real yield. |
Digital fuels Physical. Physical strengthens Digital. This is the CONTEU flywheel.
Who Is This For? Three Core User Journeys
For the Shipper / Business Owner
Use CTU to streamline logistics: pay for freight directly, stake tokens as collateral to lock future rates, and leverage blockchain for transparent, tamper-proof documentation—turning logistics into a strategic advantage.
For the Investor / Token Holder
Gain exposure to a new RWA class: an asset-backed token with intrinsic floor value, real yield from operations, and low correlation to traditional markets—diversify with the backbone of global trade.
For the Logistics Partner / Carrier
Integrate with CONTEU to optimize asset utilization, fill empty containers, access new customers, and receive instant, automated settlements—cutting admin costs and eliminating payment delays.
The Technology That Makes It Possible
- The Blockchain Layer: Launching on BNB Smart Chain (deep liquidity) with planned expansion to Solana (high-speed, low-cost) for IoT-scale logistics data.
- The Smart Contract Layer: BEP-20 token built on the secure UUPS Upgradeable Proxy standard—future-proof, with full third-party audits.
- The Data Verification Layer: Future-phase Proof-of-Reserve (PoR) will use decentralized oracles (e.g., Chainlink) to stream real-time data from IoT sensors and shipping manifests—providing on-chain, immutable proof of physical backing.
