Over the years, one team has been focused on a single issue—how to build a blockchain infrastructure that is both privacy-preserving and fully compliant, enabling real-world assets (RWA) and regulation-friendly DeFi to truly take off. It now appears that this is gradually becoming a reality.

The recent developments involve the implementation of a series of strategic partnerships. The most noteworthy is the collaboration with the Dutch multi-asset trading platform NPEX and Cordial Systems—three parties jointly launching a zero-trust custody solution while building blockchain-driven securities market infrastructure. It sounds a bit abstract, but what does it actually mean? Traditional financial institutions can now directly issue, trade, and settle regulated securities on the chain. In other words, this is no longer just a hype within the crypto community but a genuine financial innovation integrated into the real regulatory framework.

The deeper significance is that institutional-grade assets can finally flow and be traded on the chain safely and efficiently. This marks a real turning point for the entire industry.

Additionally, collaborations with regulated trading platforms like 21X are also progressing, which directly means that on-chain asset participants can now seamlessly access compliant market infrastructure. As a result, assets and participants within the ecosystem are opening the door to mainstream financial markets. From technical validation to real-world application, this path is being paved one step at a time.
