#### Delaware Statutory Trust

A Delaware Statutory Trust (DST) is a legal structure that allows multiple investors to pool their money to own a share of an asset, typically real estate, without being involved in its day-to-day management. The trust itself holds and manages the asset, distributing income generated from it to the investors. DSTs provide limited liability, protecting investors from personal liability beyond their investment.

In asset securitization, a DST can be used to bundle the income from these assets into securities, which can be sold to other investors, offering a way to spread risk and provide liquidity. The trust is not considered a taxable entity and, therefore, all profits, losses, etc. are passed through directly to the investors.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://research.chainedassets.com/legal/trusts/examples-of-trusts-used-by-web3-funds.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
