How Nous Works

Nous functions according to a proprietary three-tier management structure

By now many of us have heard of Non-Fungible Tokens (NFTs); unique, non-transferable assets whose functionality is determined by blocks of corresponding metadata. It’s hard to think ‘NFT’ in 2022 without invoking lurid JPEGs of various zoo animals, but the same technology behind these tokens has diverse application, particularly in the domain of wealth management.

Nous' proprietary three-tier structure

This is where Nous comes in. Using blockchain’s distributed ledger system, Nous is sharing the opportunity for investors to mint their own non-fungible contracts (NFCs) and take advantage of a suite of on-chain products in the first asset management service of its kind. Our three-tiered strategy is simple; our deposit layer allows users to invest with Nous on the basis of a decentralised and trust-minimised financial architecture; the management layer facilitates key automation protocols designed to honour contracts and keep the need for intervention low; finally, the execution layer powers Nous development with a diverse pool of talent housed in a cutting-edge R&D lab. Nous' ultimate goal is to overcome centralised finance and democratise access to automated wealth management.

While Nous' first priority is to offer a decentralised investment vehicle for cryptocurrencies, the technology at hand has manifold uses and serious potential for future scaling. Mortgages, loan management, and credit card payments are all liable to smart contract integration in the not-so-distant future.
