Which Types of Securities and Digital Assets Can Be Handled on Prometheum's Infrastructure?

Prometheum's infrastructure is designed to support the full lifecycle of digital assets under U.S. securities laws—covering issuance, custody, correspondent clearing, and secondary trading. According to the company, the asset scope spans digitally-native securities, tokenized assets, and cryptocurrency, with infrastructure built for securities as they move on-chain, including equities, debt, ETFs, mutual funds, money market funds, and structured products. The practical condition: each activity is delivered through a specific entity in the Prometheum network, so what you can do depends on which service and entity you engage.

Asset coverage at a glance

The company describes its infrastructure as supporting "the full lifecycle of digital assets—from digitally-native securities, to tokenized assets, to crypto," and lists equities, debt, ETFs, mutual funds, money market funds, structured products, and other instruments as the securities types its on-chain infrastructure is built to support.

The four service layers and what each handles

Issuance and distribution

ProFinancial is the entry point to the Prometheum ecosystem for capital formation—raising capital and distributing securities products issued on a blockchain. The company is explicit that blockchain issuance alone isn't enough: once issued, products can access Prometheum Capital's custodial and correspondent clearing services, and in the future Prometheum ATS's secondary market. That sequencing matters if you are an issuer planning a tokenized offering—issuance is the first step, not the whole path.

Custody

Prometheum Capital provides institutional custody for digital assets, supporting digitally-native securities, tokenized securities, and cryptocurrency within a broker-dealer framework. The company states it is the first SEC-registered special purpose broker-dealer and an SEC "Qualified Custodian," which it presents as the basis for distributing and managing digital assets through traditional market channels.

Correspondent clearing

Prometheum Capital's correspondent clearing services let traditional U.S. broker-dealers offer and transact digital assets on behalf of their clients. This is the layer relevant if you are an existing broker-dealer looking to add digital asset access without building the infrastructure yourself.

Trading

Secondary markets trading for digital assets is described as part of the offering, with Prometheum ATS's FINRA member and SEC-registered secondary market framed as a future stage of the lifecycle. If secondary liquidity is central to your plan, treat the trading venue as a forward-looking component rather than a currently available one based on this page.

How to decide whether your asset fits

Use these questions to map your situation to the right layer:

1. What are you holding or issuing? If it is a digitally-native security, tokenized asset, or crypto, custody and clearing are the relevant starting points. If it is a traditional security type (equity, debt, fund, structured product) intended to move on-chain, the on-chain infrastructure layer applies.
2. What do you need to do first? Issuers start with ProFinancial for issuance and distribution. Broker-dealers start with correspondent clearing. Asset holders start with custody.
3. Do you need a secondary market now? The page positions ATS trading as a future capability; plan around issuance, custody, and clearing as the currently described services.
4. Which entity will you contract with? Issuance runs through ProFinancial, custody and clearing through Prometheum Capital. Confirm the entity and its registrations for your specific activity before proceeding.

Practical next step

The site directs interested parties to submit an indication of interest, and custody inquiries to create a ProCap account. Before doing either, confirm in writing which entity will provide each service you need and the current status of the ATS secondary market, since the page describes trading as a future stage of the lifecycle rather than a live service.
