The real maritime economy, brought on-chain with compliance built in. A concise overview of the problem, market, solution, business model, reserve coverage, fleet, and roadmap.
July 2026
SHIPEX brings class-society-attested vessels on-chain and rewards verified members from an on-chain reserve that real charter activity replenishes, on BNB Smart Chain.
Shipping moves the physical world, but its value has been out of reach for everyday participants.
Shipping is the backbone of world trade, and on-chain markets are only beginning to reach it.
SHIPEX connects real vessels to a compliant, non-custodial loyalty program.
The thesis in one line: real charter activity replenishes the on-chain reward reserve that funds program rewards. Members receive rewards from the reserve, not a share of charter revenue.
The attested fleet performs real maritime charter and operating activity.
That activity is intended to top up the on-chain reward reserve over time.
The reward reserve is the single on-chain source that pays program rewards.
Verified members activate $SHIPEX in one of four loyalty tiers.
Members receive variable rewards from the reserve, never a claim on the vessels.
Rewards are variable and never guaranteed. $SHIPEX carries no redemption right and no claim on the vessels.
A few minutes from wallet to participation, all in one app. Four tiers, each rate published on-chain and read live.
Reward rates are variable and never guaranteed.
The access key to the program: a utility and loyalty token, not an investment, a security, e-money, or an asset-referenced token. The chart shows the designed mainnet framework for the fixed supply.
Funds loyalty rewards over time. Mirrors the on-chain reward reserve.
On-chain and venue liquidity so members can enter and exit smoothly.
Bringing new attested vessels on-chain and growing the member ecosystem.
Operations, attestation, audits, and reserves.
Aligns the people building the program, time-locked.
Member programs, education, and ecosystem contributions.
Allocation is the designed mainnet framework, not the current testnet state. Full detail in The SHIPEX Economy.
The reward reserve is sized against a clear worst case, so the program cannot over-promise.
The coverage math: 200,000 = 0.20 × X, so X = 1,000,000. If every non-reserve token were placed in the top tier for a full year, the reserve would still cover it. The contract can only pay what the reserve holds; a claim beyond it reverts rather than underpaying. Reward rates are variable and never guaranteed.
Each vessel is attested by an IACS class society and anchored on-chain to its permanent IMO number through Proof of Reserve.
| Vessel | Type | Attested value | Class society | IMO |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| MR2 product oil tanker | Oil tanker | ~$28.5M | DNV | 9456231 |
| IMO Type II chemical tanker | Chemical carrier | ~$19.2M | Lloyd's Register | 9612874 |
| LNG carrier | Gas carrier | ~$54.0M | Bureau Veritas | 9789845 |
| Total | Three vessels | ~$101.7M | 3 IACS societies |
The program is live on BNB Smart Chain testnet with a real, attested fleet and a funded reward reserve.
Most on-chain real-world value projects retrofit compliance. SHIPEX builds it in and backs it with real, attested vessels.
| Dimension | Generic real-world value token | SHIPEX |
|---|---|---|
| Compliance | Often permissionless, addressed later | Identity-gated from day one (ERC-3643), one-time KYC per wallet |
| Backing | Vague or off-chain claims | Class-society attested vessels, on-chain Proof of Reserve |
| Custody | Frequently custodial | Non-custodial, members keep their own keys |
| Reward source | New token supply or emissions | A finite reserve, intended to be replenished by charter activity |
| Transparency | Limited | Per-vessel value coverage, live on-chain rates |
Anyone can fork a token contract. Rebuilding identity-gated onboarding, class-society attestation, and a reserve sized to stay solvent is the hard part.
Five channels, one rule: every path runs through the same identity-verified onboarding.
Three disciplines building one compliant program. Full profiles are on the Team page.
Fleet sourcing, chartering, and class-society attestation across tanker, chemical, and gas segments.
Reserve accounting, treasury discipline, and the coverage math that keeps the program solvent by construction.
The non-custodial program contract, Proof of Reserve, and identity gating, delivered security-first on BNB Smart Chain.
Testnet live, four tiers, dApp and KYC, CertiK assessment in progress.
Mainnet, exchange listing, expanded fleet, ambassador program.
Multi-chain reach, analytics, institutional onboarding, mobile beta.
Enterprise API, community input, global expansion, full compliance rollout.
