What is Bridge Protocol?

Bridge Protocol is a non-custodial framework with an interface to manage on-chain assets that must comply with off-chain compliance rules.

Advanced compliance control

Enforce compliance on-chain by attaching one or multiple rules to your token. They will define how it can or cannot be transferred.

Bridge Protocol straight-through processing

Straight-through processing

Token transfers that comply with your rules are approved automatically, without your intervention. Your compliance team only ever looks at the transfers that need a human decision.

Bridge Protocol management of non-compliant transfers

Management of non-compliant transfers

Bridge Protocol's processor automatically detects non-compliant token transfers and can block them in two ways:

  • Prevent the user from initiating the transfer, and return an error message.
  • Let the transfer leave the wallet, but put it on hold until your compliance staff can review the transaction and approve or reject it.

Bridge Protocol multi-asset compliance

Multi-asset compliance

With Bridge Protocol, you manage a single user registry. Your compliance rules and limits are consolidated and enforced over all the tokens of a given investor. A price oracle lets you manage KYC/AML limits in the reference currency of your choice.

Delegate KYC/AML compliance

With Bridge Protocol, you can choose the KYC/AML agents of your choice and give them access to your compliance registry. They can onboard your investors with their regular processes, then use Bridge Protocol to update on-chain KYC/AML limits and status. In this way, you can have different compliance providers for different jurisdictions.

Multi-chain

Bridge Protocol is blockchain agnostic. It can be deployed on top of any EVM (Ethereum Virtual Machine) compatible blockchain. It is currently deployed and live on the Ethereum, BNB Chain, Polygon and Gnosis networks.

Open source and audited

“Mt Pelerin's Bridge Protocol is as open and decentralized as possible; as structured and flexible as needed. i.AM Innovation Lab was looking for a token standard that was closely aligned with the ideals of decentralization in the Ethereum ecosystem, while still allowing the flexibility to remain compliant with security token regulations.

The Bridge Protocol achieves this balance through the sophisticated implementation of familiar patterns like contract proxies and arbitrarily-configurable rules. The issuer is the ultimate decisionmaker in determining the nature of token-transfer compliance with local jurisdictions/regulatory regimes, and the token can adapt to compliance requirements should laws and regulations change in this fast-moving environment.”

FAQ about Bridge Protocol

Find below the most common questions we get from issuers about tokenizing an asset with Bridge Protocol.

Bridge Protocol is an open source, non-custodial asset tokenization platform built by Mt Pelerin. It lets an issuer deploy a security token on any EVM compatible blockchain and then run its entire compliant lifecycle on-chain: issuance, distribution, transfers, compliance and corporate actions.


Bridge Protocol is blockchain agnostic and can be deployed on top of any EVM (Ethereum Virtual Machine) compatible blockchain. It is currently deployed and live on Ethereum, BNB Chain, Polygon and Gnosis Chain.


Through a rule engine. You attach one or several rules to your token, and those rules define how it can and cannot be transferred. Rules can be added or removed on the fly, so a single asset can satisfy several jurisdictions at once and follow regulations as they change. The available rules are documented in the rule library.


Bridge Protocol's processor detects non-compliant transfers automatically and can block them in two ways. It can prevent the user from initiating the transfer and return an error message, or let the transfer leave the wallet and put it on hold until your compliance staff review the transaction and approve or reject it. Transfers that do comply go through straight-through processing and are approved without any human intervention.


No. Bridge Protocol is a non-custodial framework. You keep control of your own contracts and of your own compliance registry, and you decide which KYC/AML agents are given access to it.


Yes. The code is published on GitHub under the GNU Affero General Public License v3 (AGPL-3.0). You are free to use it, modify it and redistribute it, as long as you disclose the source code of your own applications.


Yes. The Bridge Protocol v2.0 smart contracts were audited by ChainSecurity on 30 September 2019. The full audit report is public.


Bridge Protocol itself is free and open source software. Running it costs the gas fees of the blockchain you deploy on, which is why the interface lets you re-use your previous deployments to minimize those costs. Mt Pelerin separately offers paid services around it: tokenized company structuring, security token offerings and custom development.


Yes. You choose the KYC/AML agents you want and give them access to your compliance registry. They onboard your investors with their regular processes, then use Bridge Protocol to update on-chain KYC/AML status and limits. You can use different compliance providers for different jurisdictions.


721 live assets use Bridge Protocol, issued by companies such as i.AM Innovation Lab, Wecan, Boss Info, Medignition, CleanSat Mining, RealT and Mt Pelerin itself. RealT accounts for around 700 of them, one token per tokenized property. You can browse the full list of issuers on this page.


Bridge Protocol tokens live on standard EVM blockchains, so an investor can hold them in any self-custodial wallet that supports the chain they were issued on, including Mt Pelerin's own Bridge Wallet. Transfers always remain subject to the rules the issuer attached to the token.
