Polymesh blockchain

The purpose-built blockchain for regulated assets.

Polymesh is a purpose-built, institutional-grade 
permissioned blockchain designed to meet the unique needs of regulated financial assets like tokenized securities, real estate, and funds. Unlike general-purpose blockchains, Polymesh ensures compliance, security, and operational efficiency, tailored to the demands of the financial industry.

What makes Polymesh unique?

Polymesh’s regulatory-first approach ensures a secure and compliant framework for asset tokenization. Polymesh addresses the industry’s most crucial regulatory elements through key design principles meant to meet the demands of regulators and institutions, while unlocking the true potential of security tokens.

Identity-driven design

Polymesh enforces a permissioned blockchain model, where all participants— issuers, investors, and operators — must undergo identity verification through Know Your Customer (KYC) processes. This builds trust and eliminates the risks associated with pseudonymous participants.

Compliance automation

Polymesh integrates compliance directly at the protocol level. This means rules for trading, holding, and transferring assets — such as jurisdictional regulations and investor qualifications — are coded into the blockchain itself, ensuring seamless and automatic enforcement.

Governance by industry leaders

Polymesh operates under a governance framework designed to provide stability and transparency. Stakeholders participate in decision- making to update or improve the protocol, aligning blockchain development with industry needs.

Confidentiality with selective disclosure

Polymesh enables confidential transactions without compromising regulatory compliance. Issuers can disclose specific data only to authorized parties, maintaining privacy while adhering to transparency requirements.

Institutional-grade security

Built from the ground up, Polymesh leverages the Nominated Proof-of-Stake (NPoS) consensus mechanism to deliver robust security and performance. This approach ensures that Polymesh remains scalable, efficient, and resistant to attacks.
