Partnership

This partnership between NEM and Digital Markets will enable users to issue, custody, manage and customize security tokens on Symbol alongside their proprietary STACS digital securities blockchain.

As a listing sponsor to federally registered and regulated stock exchanges; users will be able to leverage the regulatory-compliant services of Digital Markets to ensure secure security token delivery and maintenance. To complement this offering, Digital Markets also provides investment banking-style advisory and trading services to guide firms throughout the entire process of their digital asset lifecycle.

Led by James Wallace and Kyle Fry, Digital Markets provides open access to a digital securities marketplace. The issuer side of the marketplace, Investor HQ, allows organizations to issue digital shares on a proprietary blockchain at low to no cost, launch crowdfunding campaigns and private placements, access private securities marketplaces, and finally, multi-list on global stock exchanges.

For the investor side, Digital Markets offers a platform for the global distribution of digital securities/investments. Digital Markets has a proven track record in the digital securities space, in 2020, Digital Markets listed the world’s first exchange-listed Reg D+S offering, Curzio’s CEO token, on MERJ, a regulated global stock exchange, offering access to global retail investors.

Symbol

As a next-generation Proof-of-Stake (PoS) blockchain from NEM, Symbol boasts enterprise-grade programmability and security. The Symbol platform enables the creation of specialized digital assets, with configurable properties, and a unique identifier and can enforce logic-based account or asset-based restrictions at a protocol level. These features make Symbol a natural fit for the Regulated Assets and Security Token Offering (STO) spaces, with the platform already integrating with Propine, a regulated issuance and custody platform based out of Singapore.
