TruGolf (NASDAQ: TRUG) was featured in an AINewsWire editorial examining the growing institutional adoption of blockchain technology and the importance of regulatory compliance in tokenized asset markets. The editorial highlights TruGolf’s acquisition of Polymath Research Inc. and its Polymesh Layer-1 blockchain, which provides infrastructure for regulated digital securities. Polymath reported more than $132 million in tokenized assets issued on its platform by year-end 2025, with more than 65 active issuers and over 50 ecosystem partners. The editorial also discusses plans to deploy the technology within TruGolf Links Franchising through tokenized equipment leasing and fractional ownership opportunities, along with Polymath’s exploration of a tokenized film investment platform with CineCity Studios.
