New York, NY – January 11, 2018: Polymath, the first-ever security token launch pad, has today announced its partnership with Overstock.com, Inc.’s blockchain subsidiary, t0.com, Inc. (“tZERO”), in which Polymath is acting in an advisory role in connection with tZERO’s historic $250 million USD Initial Coin Offering (ICO).

Our goals are similar-to create a thriving security token industry and allow companies and investors greater access, transparency and efficiency to an emerging token economy. We are excited to work with tZERO to provide ongoing consultation and support to the build out and distribution of the tZERO token, which will be a preferred equity token for tZERO.”
President of tZERO Joe Cammarata said, “We are doing something that has never been done before-creating the first ever preferred equity security token. Projects of such innovation require best-in-class partners, and so we are excited to bring Polymath on as advisors.”
