Prometheum扩展到令牌化，获得经纪交易商并推出数字转移代理

有争议的数字资产证券公司的目标是实现利润丰厚的令牌化繁荣

Prometheus, the digital asset securities firm, is aiming to get a headstart in the lucrative tokenization boom by acquiring a broker-dealer and launching a digital transfer agent registered with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, the company told CoinDesk.

该公司告诉Coindesk，数字资产证券公司Prometheus的目标是通过收购经纪人交易商并启动在美国证券交易委员会注册的数字转让代理，以获得利润丰厚的令牌化繁荣。

The firm’s newly acquired FINRA-member and SEC-registered broker-dealer, ProFinancial, can offer primary sales of various securities products, giving issuers a pathway to raise capital directly in tokenized form. Meanwhile, Prometheum Coinery will handle shareholder records and corporate actions both on and off the blockchain.

该公司新收购的FINRA会员和SEC注册的经纪交易商Cofinancial可以提供各种证券产品的主要销售，从而使发行人可以直接以标记形式筹集资金。同时，Prometheum Coinery将处理区块链内外的股东记录和公司行动。

The additions build on existing services for custody, clearing and secondary trading via its affiliated broker-dealers, Prometheum Capital and Prometheum ATS.

这些增加的基础是通过其附属经纪交易商，Prometheum Capital和Prometheum ATS进行监护，清算和次要交易的现有服务。

With the latest move, the company aims to position as one of the few U.S.-regulated players offering a vertically integrated route for bringing real-world assets into a blockchain-native format – a capability likely to become more critical as the tokenization trend matures.

以最新的举动，该公司的目标是将垂直整合的途径带入区块链本地格式的垂直综合途径的少数美国监管的参与者之一 - 随着代币化趋势成熟，这种功能可能变得更加关键。

“Securities, commodities, everything else is moving on-chain, and there needs to be an infrastructure for that. [There's] a pie that's going to grow significantly, just like everything went from paper to electronic. We are in a prime position, in my opinion, to be a significant player in that growing ecosystem,” Aaron Kaplan, co-CEO told CoinDesk in an interview.

证券，商品，其他所有事物都在链上移动，需要有一个基础设施。[有一个馅饼将会大大增长，就像一切都从纸上到电子的一样。我认为，我们认为，我们认为这是一个不断增长的生态系统的重要参与者。

The expansion comes as asset tokenization emerges as one of the fastest-growing corners of crypto tech at a time when U.S. regulators signal a friendlier approach towards digital assets. Tokenization stands for using blockchain rails for moving and managing traditional instruments like bonds, funds and other securities, with global asset managers and banks increasingly getting involved to achieve operational efficiencies and cheaper, faster settlements. It's potentially a lucrative opportunity: the tokenized asset market could balloon to multiple trillion dollars over the next few years, a range of reports from BCG, Ripple, McKinsey, 21Shares projected.

当我们的监管机构向数字资产提出更友好的方法时，扩展是作为资产令牌化成为加密技术增长最快的角落之一的出现的。令牌化代表使用区块链导轨搬迁和管理债券，资金和其他证券等传统工具，全球资产管理者和银行越来越多地参与进来，以实现运营效率，并更便宜，更快地定居点。这可能是一个有利可图的机会：在未来几年内，令牌化的资产市场可能会膨胀到数万亿美元，BCG，Ripple，McKinsey，21shares的一系列报告预计。

It's no surprise then that tokenization firms are jockeying for position to seize the opportunity as the sector heats up. Recently, digital asset manager Superstate registered its transfer agent with the SEC and unveiled a tokenized equity trading platform. Securitize, a tokenization firm backed by BlackRock and Jump Crypto, purchased MG Stover's fund administration business, while financial services provider Apex Group last week announced the acquisition of tokenization specialist Tokeny.

毫不奇怪的是，象征公司正在争夺在该行业加热时抓住机会的立场。最近，数字资产经理Suerperstate向SEC注册了其转让代理，并揭示了一个令牌的股权交易平台。由BlackRock和Jump Crypto支持的代币化公司Securitize购买了MG Stover的基金管理业务，而金融服务提供商Apex Group上周宣布收购令牌化专家Tokeny。

Prometheum, founded in 2017, made headlines over the past years with efforts to comply with the Gary Gensler-led SEC, known for its harsh stance towards crypto. The company also divided the digital asset industry with wanting to provide securities-focused services for cryptocurrencies like ether

普罗米特姆（Prometheum）成立于2017年，在过去几年中成为头条新闻，努力遵守加里·盖斯勒（Gary Gensler）领导的SEC，以其对加密货币的严厉立场而闻名。该公司还希望为以太等加密货币提供以证券为中心的服务的数字资产行业

With the new entities, the firm is now able to offer a fully-integrated platform for tokenized securities, from initial issuance to secondary market trading and custody, all within U.S. securities laws, something that's difficult to achieve, Kaplan argued.

Kaplan认为，借助新实体，该公司现在能够为令牌化证券提供完全集成的平台，从初始发行到二级市场交易和监护权，均在美国证券法中，这是难以实现的。

"It's a much bigger lift than what was done previously with these other [tokenization] firms. Creating a digital token of an asset is the ‘low-hanging fruit,’ while being able to handle trading and post-trading are ‘exponentially harder’," Kaplan explained.

卡普兰解释说：“这比以前在这些其他（令牌化]公司中所做的事情要大得多。创建资产的数字代币是'低悬挂水果'，同时能够处理交易和交易后的交易'级别更加困难'。”

"The harder parts are what we built first. Other [firms] went the other route, which was the lowest hanging fruit first, and they've had a harder time transitioning the other way.

“较难的部分是我们首先建造的。其他（其他公司）走了另一条路线，这是最低悬挂的水果，而相反的过渡很难过渡。

"So with this announcement, it's pretty clear that the low-hanging fruit is in our purview."

“因此，通过这一公告，很明显，我们的职权范围内的水果低下。”
