Frankfurt am Main, January 12, 2023 – tokentus investment AG (“tokentus”, ISIN: DE000A3CN9R8; WKN: A3CN9R; symbol: 14D), headquartered in Frankfurt am Main, Germany, is purchasing EUR 50,000 in PolySign shares (www. polysign.io ), headquartered in Oakland, California (USA). PolySign says it is an established operator of a secure and scalable infrastructure for financial institutions and institutional investors, helping them leverage their digital assets across the value chain. Other investors in PolySign include Soros Fund Management, Blockchain.com, GSR and Brevan Howard Asset Management.

PolySign’s core products include a digital asset custody solution through its subsidiary Standard Custody & Trust Company, a New York regulated custodian. PolySign has also been active in fund administration since the acquisition of MG Stover, a full-service fund administration company founded by accountants and fund operators, in the spring of 2022. Its ABC Network subsidiary also operates a vendor-owned blockchain solution for digital identity and signatures. In the first quarter of 2023, PolySign’s portfolio is expected to be further expanded with Polynet, a settlement and settlement solution designed to provide instant and automated settlement for a variety of assets. From tokentus’ perspective, current market developments and increasing governance and compliance monitoring by institutional investors are driving the demand for high-quality, regulated institutional custodians across the spectrum of digital assets.

PolySign currently has approximately 60 employees and is led by a team around CEO Jack McDonald. The PolySign team is made up of industry experts, including former Ripple employees, and therefore has years of experience building and scaling technology companies.

“In our opinion, PolySign is excellently positioned and a pioneer in its field. With this strategic investment, we can specifically strengthen our portfolio together with Qredo, BCB and Ownera with another innovative institutional infrastructure solution and diversify our overall portfolio,” said Oliver Michel, CEO director of tokentus investment AG. “From our point of view, the demand for safe and regulated custody of digital assets is growing enormously, and this is exactly where we are expanding our involvement,” adds Benedikt Schulz, chief investment officer at tokentus.
