Disruptive thinker, business innovator, visionary leader.
Thomas Carter is a financial technology, blockchain, and digital securities pioneer with 30 years of capital markets experience. In 2016, he founded Deal Box, a capital markets consulting firm that leverages automation, artificial intelligence, and blockchain technologies to help entrepreneurs and investors.
Today, Carter is the CEO of Deal Box, leading investments and strategy. He also serves as the Chairman of True I/O, an ecosystem of blockchain-enabled solutions that includes a cross-network security solution called the Universal Communications Identifier (UCID™) and Digital Names, an alias solution for public keys.
Nodeify as a holding company consists of a group of companies that are empowering people to take control of their identity and data and paving the way for a new era of transparency, security, and user-centricity.
DealBox is a mature capital markets advisory and RWA (Real-World Asset) tokenization platform. With a track record of packaging over 500 issuers, it serves as the primary source of compliant deal flow and asset opportunities for the True I/O ecosystem, often structuring assets to be tokenized on OroBit's Bitcoin L2 Protocol.
True I/O is focused on building the foundational security, identity, and compliance "substrate" for Real-World Assets (RWAs) and IoT devices on public blockchains. Its core product, UCID (Universal Communication Identifier), provides tamper-evident provenance and real-time security by stamping unique, verifiable on-chain identities onto network-connected devices, crucial for supply chains and mitigating counterfeit risks.
Blockchain Names (also referred to as BTC Names) is a blockchain naming service designed to simplify user interaction with cryptocurrencies and tokenized assets. It replaces complex wallet addresses with human-readable names (e.g., .btc names), leveraging IPFS for decentralized linking and integrating with platforms like OroBit to enhance usability and reduce transaction friction across the ecosystem.
BlendFi is an upcoming unified financial platform aiming to bridge traditional finance with the digital asset world. It's designed to integrate traditional banking services, cryptocurrencies, and tokenized Real-World Assets (RWAs) into a single, intuitive user interface, serving as a key distribution channel for assets tokenized within the True I/O ecosystem to drive mass-market adoption.
My mission, as the architect of this interconnected ecosystem, is to spearhead the secure and compliant integration of real-world assets and enterprise-grade solutions onto public blockchains, anchored by Bitcoin's unparalleled trust.
Through Nodeify, we've meticulously brought together best-in-class innovators – from True I/O’s foundational device security, OroBit’s Bitcoin L2 programmability, and Blockchain Names’ user-centric identity, to BlendFi’s vision for mass-market financial inclusion and DealBox's compliant capital pathways.
Our collective purpose is to dismantle the complexities and risks traditionally associated with RWA tokenization. We are building the essential 'substrate' – the secure, identifiable, and usable rails – to unlock trillions in real-world value, drive mainstream adoption, and forge a more transparent, efficient, and trustworthy digital economy for businesses and individuals alike.
