We’re proud to announce that Polymesh Labs Ltd. (“Polymesh Labs”) has officially joined the Polymath family following the successful close of our previously announced acquisition.

This milestone represents a major leap forward in our mission to build institutional-grade infrastructure for regulated asset tokenization — combining the blockchain, the token, and the tools under one roof.

A Strategic Integration to Power the Future of Tokenization

Originally announced on May 13, 2025, the acquisition of Polymesh Labs strengthens Polymath’s end-to-end offering. As a wholly owned subsidiary based in the Cayman Islands, Polymesh Labs will oversee the Polymesh blockchain, the POLYX token, and supporting tools such as the Polymesh Wallet, Polymesh Portal, and TokenStudio.

This integration allows for deeper alignment between blockchain development and platform functionality, enabling faster innovation and enhanced support for institutional adoption of Polymesh.

Built for What Institutions Need

Polymesh stands out as the premier blockchain purpose-built for security tokens and regulated real-world assets (RWAs), featuring:

  • Compliance at the protocol level

  • Identity verification requirements for all participants

  • Permissioned node operators who are licensed/registered financial entities

The integration of Polymesh Labs into Polymath ensures this infrastructure now operates with the full backing and strategic direction of a unified, capital markets-focused company.

This Is All Part of Something Bigger

The Polymesh Labs acquisition follows Polymath’s agreement to go public via a reverse takeover of AnalytixInsight Inc. (TSXV: ALY). This transaction — now well underway — positions Polymath as a publicly-traded company with ownership of its own Layer 1 blockchain, uniquely bridging traditional capital markets and decentralized finance.

Recent Milestones from Polymath

This integration comes at a time of accelerating momentum for Polymath, including:

  • Launch of Start-Me-Up, the freemium version of our Capital Platform, giving users a free and intuitive way to issue and manage security tokens on Polymesh

  • Polymath hosted our first live onboarding webinar, where we showcased real-world tokenization use cases and how to get started in minutes

  • New licensing agreement with a U.S. FINRA-registered broker-dealer, expanding our regulated issuance capabilities in the United States

  • Strategic partnership with Pando RWA, helping bridge traditional finance and blockchain infrastructure across institutional markets

Together with the acquisition of Polymesh Labs, these milestones further strengthen Polymath’s position as a leader in compliant tokenization solutions.

Ecosystem Growth: Expanding Global Partnerships

The Polymesh ecosystem continues to gain traction across the global financial landscape:

  • Paysafe has joined as a node operator, bringing decades of payment experience to Polymesh’s infrastructure

  • BitGo, through its acquisition of Brassica, has selected Polymesh as its first Layer 1 blockchain for its RWA tokenization strategy

  • Zodia Custody and GK8 by Galaxy have entered the ecosystem to offer custody and staking services, with tokenization features on the roadmap

  • BDACS, a trusted partner in Korea, has proposed Polymesh as the underlying technology for the Busan Digital Asset Nexus (BDAN)

  • Polymesh is also integrated with tokenization platforms including Polymath’s Capital Platform, AlphaPoint, Tokenise, Ocree, and REtokens — the latter recognized by Deloitte for innovation in real estate tokenization

A Unified Future for Regulated Digital Assets

With this acquisition, Polymath becomes one of the only companies in the world to operate both a purpose-built blockchain and a compliant tokenization platform — soon to be backed by a public listing.

As institutions increasingly seek safe, secure, and regulatory-compliant pathways into digital assets, Polymath and Polymesh Labs together offer the infrastructure, tools, and vision to lead the future of tokenized finance.
