On August 8, 2025, MyStonks announced the official completion of the U.S. securities token issuance (STO) filing, obtaining the qualification to legally issue security tokens to qualified investors in the U.S. This milestone not only lays the compliance foundation for key aspects such as product design, information disclosure, investor eligibility screening, and asset custody but also marks the entry of digital securities into a large-scale application era.
The issuance of security tokens utilizes blockchain technology to digitize and securitize real assets, subject to stricter securities regulation than ordinary tokens. MyStonks's filing this time covers multiple aspects including the writing of private placement memorandums, compliance and financial audits, identity verification system construction, and on-chain asset custody mechanisms, ensuring that token issuance complies with U.S. securities law and meets the high standards required by the SEC. This work took several months and involved compliance investments at the million-dollar level, fully demonstrating MyStonks's profound understanding of compliance and its firm execution capabilities.
The STO market was once stagnant due to a lack of mature on-chain custody and compliant trading technology, with the main obstacles being the inability to achieve true asset custody and secure compliant trading, leading to significant legal risks and a lack of market confidence. MyStonks has effectively resolved these bottlenecks through innovative on-chain asset custody solutions and real-time matching technology, significantly enhancing the compliance, trading transparency, and liquidity of security tokens. Consequently, STO has not only moved from theory and small-scale pilot projects to substantial promotion but has also continuously driven the popularization and revival of securities digitization, meeting the strong market demand for high-quality digital assets.
Unlike many platforms at the same time that were still in the approval and exploration stages, MyStonks was the first to complete the STO filing and obtained the MSB financial service qualification issued by FinCEN, laying a solid foundation for compliant financial services in the U.S. market. This first-mover advantage ensures that it maintains a leading position in the global securities token issuance and trading field, providing a solid guarantee for subsequent product innovation and cross-regional expansion.
MyStonks plans to establish a local team in New York in the fourth quarter of 2025 to strengthen compliance and operational capabilities, actively connect with regulatory agencies, and enhance service levels for the U.S. market. At the same time, it will promote compliance qualification applications in Europe, Asia, and the Middle East, laying out a global digital securities ecosystem. In the future, the platform will focus on compliance, relying on blockchain technology innovation to build a closed-loop digital securities infrastructure covering issuance, custody, trading, and circulation.
This STO filing not only reflects MyStonks's compliance strength but also highlights its strategic vision of driving compliance innovation through technology. The platform integrates the transparency of blockchain with the automatic execution of compliance rules through smart contracts, creating a safe and efficient environment for securities issuance and trading, promoting the transition of security tokens from concept to large-scale application, and helping the global capital markets move towards a new era of openness, transparency, and decentralization.
