Digital asset infrastructure provider Taurus is stepping up its tokenization efforts in Europe through a full integration with the Polygon blockchain, the company announced on June 2.\u00a0<\/p>\n
The move comes three months after Taurus raised $65 million in a funding round, and will allow its clients to automatically issue digital securities. Taurus claims to have over 25 clients across nine countries, including Arab Bank Switzerland, CACEIS Bank, Cr\u00e9dit Agricole, Credit Suisse, Deutsche Bank, Pictet, Swissquote, Vontobel.<\/p>\n
A Taurus spokesperson told Cointelegraph that debt, funds, and structured products are among the most popular assets for tokenization, though the demand varies depending on local regulations. Picking Polygon was a “natural choice to benefit from the Ethereum network,” it continued. <\/p>\n
\u201cThe tokenization of real-world assets is a no-brainer at the root of the idea. The challenge is and always has been to build sufficiently advanced infrastructure to enable it,\u201d Colin Butler, global head of institutional capital at Polygon Labs, said in a statement.<\/p>\n
A tokenization process involves converting something tangible or intangible into a digital token. Tokenizing tangible assets such as real estate, stocks, or art is possible. It is also possible to tokenize intangible assets such as loyalty points and voting rights, as previously\u00a0reported by Cointelegraph. <\/p>\n
