Prometheum launches broker-dealer infrastructure to finally solve tokenized securities distribution!

Prometheum has launched Digital Brokerage Solutions, a correspondent clearing, custody and trading suite that lets broker-dealers and registered investment advisers offer tokenized securities and crypto assets directly through traditional brokerage accounts. Co-founder and co-CEO Aaron Kaplan argues the industry has cracked issuance but left distribution unsolved: "There are tens of billions of dollars of tokenized securities already issued on blockchain rails, but almost no mainstream distribution channel to reach investors at scale."

The New York firm operates a network of SEC-registered, FINRA-member entities covering the full digital asset lifecycle — transfer agent, ATS, custody, clearing and settlement — and recently joined the DTCC Industry Working Group alongside 50-plus financial firms shaping DTC's tokenization service.
