BSTX is based in Boston with Lisa Fallserving as the CEO. tZERO will manage ongoing technology implementation, administration, maintenance, and support.

“For the last year, we have worked closely with our partners, tZERO, and in coordination with regulators in designing a framework for the secure and efficient trading of security tokens,” said Fall. “We believe the proposed rules provide a secure and regulated means for the trading of security tokens and we are excited to provide this new venue to market participants, pending regulatory approval.”

“The submission of the proposed rulebook is a significant milestone that will pave the way for the secure and efficient trading of security tokens on a regulated exchange,” said Susan Chamberlin, Chairman of BSTX. “There is no doubt that security tokens are the future of capital markets and we are excited to be working to continue to advance this evolution of the industry through creation and trading of blockchain-based tokenized securities.”
