This Launchpad is in collaboration with Top-10 Exchange Gate.io, who will be doing a tandem co-launch of Verso alongside the TrustSwap Launchpad.
In addition, this is the first Launchpad EVER on the Avalanche blockchain. Avalanche blockchain is integrated with metamask. This means you can use metamask and/or gate.io to interact with the $VSO tokens.
Introducing Verso
Verso is a decentralized marketplace for the regulated financial service industry. Verso provides financial service providers with access to previously inaccessible consumers allowing them to access exciting new product offerings directly from their preferred wallet. The project is backed by top-tier investors including Gate.io, AU21 Capital, DFG, JRR, and NGC. Verso is also the first project launched via the newly established TrustSwap Incubator Program.
Verso uses proprietary smart contracts to facilitate the distribution and product-specific money flow between service providers, financial institutions, and their customers. As a result, there is reduced reliance on intermediaries, significantly lower distribution costs, and increased efficiency.
Verso is based in Switzerland with a distributed team across America, Europe, and Asia. Together with Wallet Engine, a founding member of the Verso network, strategic partners, and reputed advisors, Verso is set to accelerate the distribution of inclusive financial products to retail consumers across geographies.

What is the TrustSwap Incubator Program?
Verso is the first project under the umbrella of the newly-launched TrustSwap Incubator Program.
The TrustSwap Incubator Program is a brand-new initiative to help transform innovative new ideas into successful crypto startups. Prior to admission into the Incubator Program, a panel of industry experts carefully selects the most promising projects. TrustSwap guides them through all of the critical development stages from the foundations of forming a crypto company to the specifics of brand building and operational success. Once a project successfully completes the Incubator Program, their tokens are then offered via the TrustSwap Launchpad.
Projects can sign up for the TrustSwap Incubator Program by completing this Application Form.
