Carlos Domingo is the founder of Securitize, the aptly-named SEC-registered transfer agent and compliance platform for issuing and managing digital asset securities, or security tokens. The company recently signed a deal with an SEC and FINRA-registered broker-dealer and ATS called Distributed Technology Markets, LLC, and seems on track to become an end-to-end digital securities platform that offers both securities issuance and trading through secondary markets.
