Ethereum foundation of Singapore
Ethereum Community Foundation (ECF) is a non-profit organization. Its original idea was to give community projects a bonus to support incubation of early projects and research. Then in 2018, omisego, Golem, status, maker, Web3 (Polkadot), cosmos and ef (Ethereum Fund) were set up in Tokyo as consultants
ECF 2.0 is the upgrade of ECF, which has two core goals:
< UL >
coordinate community relations through various harmonious ways, such as bonus, strategic and business support, and community activities
in order to become an open capital network, ECF emphasizes its initial vision, which is to form a network with various funds to realize the support and contribution to the community
In addition, ECF 2.0 upgrade will not only support non-profit infrastructure projects, ecation programs, instrial community activities, but also support application and tool development, and even commercial projectswhen many people are doing blockchain, they usually register a foundation to run with ordinary companies. Compared with Singapore foundation, what are the common problems when they register a Singapore foundation to do blockchain, Below, we will sort out and share some of our customers' concerns with you
1. Does the registration fee include the cost of the white paper
A: No, the legal adviser is a personalized business, and the fee depends on the project. The legal adviser can provide services in the whole process. Including the revision of the legal provisions of the white paper, and the issue of professional legal opinions on relevant laws and regulations such as the non securities nature of the token. ICO is the legal consultation in the process of issuing currency
2. About the Singapore foundation. Why should there be a company to operate and what is the relationship with the foundation? Why not register a company directly for ICO and exchange docking
A: the foundation is a public welfare organization and a public sector. It is more concive to attract investment and technology development to use the foundation to issue blockchain. It can also be directly ICO through ordinary companies. It depends on how customers want to operate
3. Isn't ICO a way to raise funds?
A: Yes. Participate in the crowdfunding of the project with the existing real value currency, and exchange for the new cryptocurrency issued by the project. The advantage of fundraisers is that they get the funds to carry out the project, while the participants want the project to be successful. In this way, the newly issued cryptocurrency in their hands is likely to appreciate and arbitrage. The so-called ICO means that investors use bitcoin and other ready-made virtual digital currencies to exchange for new tokens issued by ICO projects. Because there are few new currency owners and the price fluctuates greatly, the selling price on the exchange is likely to be much higher than the issuing price. The sponsors of ICO project use the traditional digital currency to exchange RMB and other legal currencies in the exchange, and then put them into the designated technical projects
4. Why not raise funds through common channels
A: the threshold of common channels is low, and there is no regulatory department. The risk is high
5. How to set up an exchange
A: you can choose an exchange according to your own situation. Generally, you should have strong experience in digital asset security management. There are many platforms
6. Why do you need to make a legal opinion
according to Singapore's financial law and securities law, if a virtual currency with securities nature needs to apply for a special financial license, so it needs to prove that the project does not contain securities nature, it needs a lawyer to issue a legal opinion on the non securitization of token and a legal opinion on compliance of white paper to prove the legality and compliance of the project, both of which are required by most customers
7. How can a registered Singapore foundation open an account in a bank
first of all, there is no need to open an account for a registered public non-profit foundation, and it is useless to open an account because the nature of the foundation itself is non-profit. When it comes to the next year's audit, can't it explain the income and expenditure of the bank account with the monetary authority? Second, the bank has a choice of customers. If the bank is told to do blockchain, the bank will not accept opening an account; Third, whether it's private placement or public offering, all the money raised are virtual currencies like Ethereum bitcoin. Ordinary bank accounts can't accept these currencies, so I don't recommend opening an account in a bank.
Of course, you can go to his home!! Singapore stipulates that non-profit organizations do not need to register capital or pay taxes, but they need to obtain the approval of acra. To register a public guarantee limited company in acra, the following information should be provided:
A. Company Name: the names of several foundations of non-profit organizations should be drawn up. Generally, the word "foundation" should be included, and the end of the company should be limited
B. directors and shareholders: two Singaporean directors and two shareholders are required to provide their passport or scanned of identity, address, etc
C. business scope: two business items can be selected (profit-making items cannot be selected)
D. registered address: provide the local office address in Singapore
E. Company Secretary: the statutory licensed Secretary of Singapore must be appointed
it can be found from the information required for the registration of Singapore foundation that it is generally difficult for domestic enterprises or indivials to provide shareholders, directors, office addresses and Legal Secretaries in Singapore, so the most common practice at present is to seek the assistance of an agent in Singapore
Singapore foundation application process
the process of applying for a foundation from our company is very simple. Because a Singapore public company belongs to a non-profit organization, the applicant does not need to prepare registered capital. The only solution is to provide registration information to prove the legitimacy of the foundation. The general application process is as follows:
1 Entrust an overseas agent to submit the proposed name of the foundation to the accounting and business control authority of Singapore for verification, so as to ensure that there is no plicate name
2. Sign the entrustment application agreement and make the relevant application documents by the agent
3. The agent will submit the prepared statement of ultimate beneficiary, articles of association of Singapore public company, form45 director Qualification Statement, form24 shareholder statement, director shareholder status report and other documents to the directors for signature, and then submit them to acra Singapore for review. Generally, the company registration can be found online within 2-3 working days, The foundation registration certificate issued by acra can be obtained within 7-10 working days
4. After the processing is completed, we can start to launch the world-famous blockchain platform (such as Ethereum, one of the most popular blockchain platforms at present)
although the application process of Singapore foundation is relatively simple, after the foundation is registered, it needs to entrust the licensed Secretary to conct annual inspection and audit every year, and the audit depends on the business situation of the foundation

3. Can Singapore private limited invest in blockchain
it's hard to say. Generally, we don't recommend customers to register private companies for blockchain. First of all, some well-known enterprises, such as lightcoin and Biyuan chain, are registered foundation companies. Second, for ordinary companies, lawyers can't make legal opinions. If they need legal opinions in the future, they can't do it. The difference between the two kinds of companies is not much, so you'd better register a public company
4. Why do you need to make a legal opinion
according to Singapore's financial law and securities law, if a virtual currency with securities nature needs to apply for a special financial license, so it needs to prove that the project does not contain securities nature, it needs a lawyer to issue a legal opinion on the non securitization of token and a legal opinion on compliance of white paper to prove the legality and compliance of the project, both of which are required by most customers

Second, if you need to make a legal opinion on the subsequent exchange, Singapore has perfect laws and regulations, and there is a special lawyer to give you a legal opinion. There is no lawyer in other places of registration to do this. Therefore, if you want to go to the exchange later, it is better to register the Singapore foundation
7. How can a registered Singapore foundation open an account in a bank
it is not necessary for you to open an account to register a public foundation, and it is useless to open an account because the foundation itself is non-profit in nature.
