What Is Polymesh?

About Polymesh (POLYX)

POLYX is a native token of the open permissioned blockchain Polymesh. This blockchain is created specifically for security tokens.

The POLYX token is the fuel of the Polymesh blockchain. It is necessary to create and manage security tokens. It is also used for governance voting. Token holders can stake their tokens to ensure the security of the chain. POLYX is a utility token that can be used only within the network to pay for various operations, including transaction fees. Its supply follows an asymptotic limit. It also has a mechanism that is supposed to prevent increasing inflation. Once the amount of POLYX reaches 1 billion, the amount of newly minted tokens issued for rewards will be fixed at 140 million a year.

It is concentrated on important regulatory elements, such as confidentiality, identity, governance, and compliance. These things may stand in the way of the successful adoption of blockchain technology in financial markets.

Polymesh is the second attempt to act on this idea. Firstly, Polymath aimed to make Ethereum compatible with financial markets by trying to standardize security tokens. ERC 1400 became a unified standard. Basically, Polymath set the stage for automation and simplification of capital markets with the new blockchain technology that is now being continued by Polymesh.
