### About PV01

PV01 is a global company started in 2022 by Max Boonen and Flavio Molendini, who also founded B2C2. They create and sell digital bonds using blockchain technology. PV01 manages everything needed to issue these bonds, from setting them up to finding and selling them to qualified institutional investors outside the U.S through their non-custodial platform. 

### Product: Digital Treasury Bills

PV01's platform offers direct access to the $25 trillion US Treasury bond market through Digital Treasury Bills, which are ERC-20 tokens fully backed by US Treasury bonds on a one-to-one basis. Investors can earn interest on their USDC holdings without needing traditional financial systems. 

All activities, including issuance, transfers, trading, and redemption of these digital assets, happen on the blockchain, removing the need for traditional clearing systems. Digital Treasury Products can be traded and used as collateral, allowing investors to earn interest and manage their holdings while staying entirely on-chain.
