Due diligence cleared. Stobox's capital raise passed the review of an SEC-registered, FINRA-member broker-dealer. July 30, 2026.

On July 30, 2026, Silicon Prairie Capital Partners, LLC formally confirmed that Stobox has cleared its due diligence review for the company’s capital raise. The confirmation came in writing from Cedric M. Long, CFA, President of the firm. In plain terms: an independent, regulated US intermediary examined our company and cleared our raise to proceed toward campaign launch on its platform.

Before anything else, one sentence on what this article is. It is a corporate milestone announcement, published for general information. It is not an offer to sell securities, not a solicitation of an offer to buy them, and not investment advice. The full disclaimer is at the end.

Who reviewed us

Silicon Prairie Capital Partners, LLC is an SEC-registered, FINRA-member broker-dealer headquartered in St. Paul, Minnesota (CRD #226591). Anyone can verify its registration independently on FINRA BrokerCheck. The firm is part of Silicon Prairie’s regulated fundraising infrastructure, which spans investment banking, funding portals, and investor verification.

That identity matters. In the US capital markets, a broker-dealer that facilitates a private raise takes on regulatory obligations of its own. Before it lets an issuer anywhere near investors on its platform, it must satisfy itself that the issuer is what it claims to be.

What broker-dealer due diligence actually covers

Due diligence at a FINRA-member firm is not a form you fill in. It is an examination of the issuer: corporate standing and capitalization, the backgrounds of the people involved, the structure of the offering, the disclosures investors will rely on, and the consistency of the story the company tells with the documents it can produce.

Passing it does not mean the broker-dealer endorses the company or recommends the investment. No due diligence process does that, and neither FINRA nor the SEC approves or passes upon any offering. What it means is narrower and, in our view, more valuable: a regulated third party with its own license at stake reviewed Stobox and found no reason to turn the raise away. That is a trust signal a company cannot write about itself.

Why we chose this path

Stobox has spent eight years, since 2018, building compliant infrastructure for the tokenization of real-world assets. Our position has always been that tokenized securities are securities first: the legal, compliance, and distribution rails are the product, not an afterthought. We say this to every client who goes through our tokenization framework.

A company that sells that thesis should be willing to live by it. When we structured our own raise, we took the same route we recommend to issuers: through a regulated intermediary and its diligence process, not around it. Clearing that process is the point at which our own raise starts practicing what our platform preaches.

What happens next

With due diligence cleared, the work moves to campaign preparation with the Silicon Prairie team, including investor verification through the platform’s compliance tooling. General information about Stobox’s capital raising, including who is eligible to participate in which part of it, is available on our investors page. Any actual offer is made only through the official offering documents on the applicable regulated portal, and eligibility is determined there, not here.

The bottom line

Regulated capital formation runs on verification: of issuers, of investors, of claims. Stobox builds that verification layer for others, and this week an independent FINRA-member broker-dealer applied it to us.
