Then, tZero, Overstock’s security token platform, offered investment and a transition to a security token offering, or STO.

According to Zhang, as of early 2019, the transition was progressing successfully, but sudden teething problems drastically undermined the operation.

All Bankorus has now, he added, is a $1 million investment in Lithuania’s Rato Credit Union. Zhang added:

“And the token holders doesn’t have any legal claims over this, based on the agreements they signed.”

The debacle comes amid the problems for Overstock itself. As reported before, the famous Bitcoin-friendly retail giant abruptly lost its CEO Patrick Byrne in August. In September, a lawsuit alleging securities law violation added to its misfortune.
