Welcome to Polymesh
Polymesh is a public permissioned blockchain purpose-built for regulated assets and capital markets. It streamlines antiquated processes and opens the door to new financial instruments by solving challenges around governance, identity, compliance, confidentiality, and settlement.
What Makes Polymesh Different?
Built from the ground up for regulated securities, Polymesh addresses the key challenges faced by financial institutions looking to issue, manage, and trade security tokens:
- On-Chain Identity: Every participant must have a verified on-chain identity. Learn more in the Identity section and the Onboarding process.
- Native Assets (Fungible & Non-Fungible): Assets are first-class citizens on Polymesh, standardized at the protocol level to ensure interoperability throughout the network. Both fungible and non-fungible assets are supported natively and benefit from built-in compliance, settlement, and lifecycle management features.
- Compliance by Design: Asset transfers and ownership are enforced by protocol-level rules. See Compliance for details.
- Purpose-Built Settlement: Polymesh provides a robust framework for compliant, multi-party Settlement.
- Native Token: POLYX is used for transaction fees, staking, and network operation.
