Digital Tokens: Rainshine will launch its first token under the brand AISTRA Coin, a first-of-its-kind investment vehicle designed to raise $100 million to finance, distribute, and trade new original content productions and list at global Alternative Trading System (ATS) exchanges. Rainshine’s digital tokens will create a new asset class for both institutional & high net worth investors, transforming the process of investing in new and high potential original audio-visual media content assets.
Media Credit: The company will launch two new subsidiaries under the banner of Rainshine Media CreditTech, one each for the US and India, to offer credit solutions to the M&E industry.

Rainshine’s DARA group will work closely with industry players to help them develop and launch new products globally and ensure that they achieve their fullest potential.
The offerings will be anchored by RainBlox©, the company’s proprietary blockchain platform.

Rainshine is standardizing financing and payment processes in the M&E industry that have been overly complex traditionally. It seeks to enhance trust and transparency for investors, content creators, and producers.
The innovative offerings from Rainshine will accelerate the growth of its original content business and create new options for financing, distribution, and co-creation of content and fulfill its ambition of creating the next generation M&E company.

Riding on the second wave of digital disruption, we want to build a future-ready company that not only champions the stories that creators want to tell their audiences but also alleviates their pain points on financing, distribution, and retaining the fair share of their creations. We find ourselves in an exciting period where technology can accelerate growth and restructure the industry in a most positive manner, and we want to be on the forefront of enabling the development of a creator-centric industry.”
