--- title: JD Discusses ArCoin on The Crypto Rundown description: ArCoin, to many, is a confusing product at first. Not because the structure or digital shares are unusually complex, but because we are doing something that has never been done before. That’s why I love discussing ArCoin with peers and potential customers. image: https://www.ar.ca/hubfs/JD-Discusses-ArCoin-on-The-Crypto-Rundown.png --- [![email-sig-logowhite](https://www.ar.ca/hs-fs/hubfs/email-sig-logowhite.png?width=102&height=96&name=email-sig-logowhite.png "email-sig-logowhite")](https://www.ar.ca/) [![Get in Touch](https://no-cache.hubspot.com/cta/default/4536350/28ac2c2f-186c-436f-9682-1169cf946ad3.png)](https://cta-redirect.hubspot.com/cta/redirect/4536350/28ac2c2f-186c-436f-9682-1169cf946ad3) ** ** ** [![Arca](https://www.ar.ca/hs-fs/hubfs/arca_square_576x576.png?width=60&height=30&name=arca_square_576x576.png "Arca")](https://www.ar.ca/) [![Get in Touch](https://no-cache.hubspot.com/cta/default/4536350/28ac2c2f-186c-436f-9682-1169cf946ad3.png)](https://cta-redirect.hubspot.com/cta/redirect/4536350/28ac2c2f-186c-436f-9682-1169cf946ad3) ** ** ** Search **Menu** ** ** [![Data Room](https://no-cache.hubspot.com/cta/default/4536350/72e2934a-0f70-4634-897e-b99fd4807a9b.png)](https://cta-redirect.hubspot.com/cta/redirect/4536350/72e2934a-0f70-4634-897e-b99fd4807a9b) [![Get in Touch](https://no-cache.hubspot.com/cta/default/4536350/28ac2c2f-186c-436f-9682-1169cf946ad3.png)](https://cta-redirect.hubspot.com/cta/redirect/4536350/28ac2c2f-186c-436f-9682-1169cf946ad3) ![](https://www.ar.ca/hubfs/JD-Discusses-ArCoin-on-The-Crypto-Rundown.png) [Arca Labs](https://www.ar.ca/blog/tag/arca-labs) | # JD Discusses ArCoin on The Crypto Rundown [![Arca Labs](https://www.ar.ca/hubfs/White-Arca-Labs-Logo.png)](https://www.ar.ca/blog/author/arca-labs) Written by [Arca Labs](https://www.ar.ca/blog/author/arca-labs) Apr 13, 2021 ArCoin, to many, is a confusing product at first. Not because the structure or digital shares are unusually complex, but because we are doing something that has never been done before. That’s why I love discussing ArCoin with peers and potential customers. Having the opportunity to engage in a live discussion helps people realize that ArCoin is unique because it is the first U.S. Treasury Fund registered under the ‘40 Act to issue its shares as digital securities. Much like paper share certificates were replaced with shareholder databases, the blockchain will offer utility to shareholders, allowing them to hold and transfer ownership of their shares in a new and innovative way.  A few weeks ago I had the opportunity to join Mark Longo on his podcast “The Crypto Rundown” to share my thoughts on the ArCoin, the journey since going effective, and our plans for the future. This podcast offers a deeper dive into the workings of our new financial product and its role in the digital asset universe for sophisticated investors.
