Security token platform Polymath has partnered with digital securities fundraising platform seriesOne to offer an “end-to-end” solution for security token issuance.
SeriesOne announced the news Tuesday, saying the new product will enable issuers to create and manage security tokens that are “compliant throughout their entire lifecycle,” that is, from initial offering to trading on a secondary exchange.

The two aim to simplify the “complex challenges” of creating and managing security tokens. The new solution would be a “critical” component of seriesOne's digital securities offering ecosystem, the firm said.
Polymath sets out to be the ethereum of security tokens, according to its website. It's already developed its own token standards aimed to facilitate complaint trading and, last month, carried out a test showing how a decentralized exchange could be set up to only allow trades that were authorized.
“The token control layer that Polymath offers will be the future standard and we are excited to be working together,” said seriesOne CTO Dmitry Grinberg.
The ST-20 security token standard created by Polymath is an extension of the more generalized ethereum ERC-1400 standard that introduces the ability to restrict transfers of blockchain tokens.
Michael Mildenberger, seriesOne CEO, added that he is “confident” that using Polymath’s ST-20 protocol will “enhance the process of raising capital on our platform."
Back in November, seriesOne partnered with South Korean crypto exchange Bithumb to launch a compliant security token exchange in the U.S.

What to know:
Pudgy Penguins is emerging as one of the strongest NFT-native brands of this cycle, shifting from speculative “digital luxury goods” into a multi-vertical consumer IP platform. Its strategy is to acquire users through mainstream channels first; toys, retail partnerships and viral media, then onboard them into Web3 through games, NFTs and the PENGU token.
The ecosystem now spans phygital products (> $13M retail sales and >1M units sold), games and experiences (Pudgy Party surpassed 500k downloads in two weeks), and a widely distributed token (airdropped to 6M+ wallets). While the market is currently pricing Pudgy at a premium relative to traditional IP peers, sustained success depends on execution across retail expansion, gaming adoption and deeper token utility.
