Polymath Grows Node Operator Base on Polymesh Blockchain with BLOXXON AG

Polymath

The Berlin-based FinTech company will assist in securing Polymesh – Polymath’s purpose-built blockchain for regulated assets which is currently in testnet phase

BLOXXON AG (“Bloxxon”), a Berlin-based finTech company offering digital asset solutions and API services to institutional investors and financial services providers, is now running an authoring node on the testnet for Polymesh blockchain, a permissioned blockchain purpose-built by Polymath specifically for regulated assets.

Polymesh relies on key design principles built into the chain to solve the inherent challenges of public infrastructure in terms of managing identity, compliance, confidentiality, and governance. When it comes to node operators, Polymesh relies exclusively on companies like Bloxxon which are known, trusted, and verified capital markets participants. This requirement keeps the chain secure and operational, while also ensuring known entities confirm transactions on chain.

“Security tokens offer a new class of assets and the technology powering them will play a critical role in deciding their success,” said Didier Goepfert, Chief Product Officer at BLOXXON AG. “Because Polymesh is built specifically for regulated assets, it provides confidence that the technology can keep pace with market requirements. We’re looking forward to our growing involvement with the chain.”

Polymesh is currently in testnet phase. Users can earn rewards and test functionality by participating in the recently-launched Incentivized Testnet (ITN). The ITN does not involve the use of real assets.
