ADI Foundation selects ZK Stack for institutional blockchain deployment
Andrey Lazorenko, CEO of ADI Foundation, announced that ADIChain is building on ZKsync's proven technology to establish sovereign blockchain infrastructure in the UAE.
Key points:
- ADIChain leverages ZK Stack's battle-tested technology for UAE-based operations
- Focus on bringing billions of users from emerging markets onchain
- Combines proven ZKsync infrastructure with sovereign rails
The deployment represents institutional adoption of ZKsync's technology for government-backed blockchain infrastructure in emerging markets.
Prividium™️ A purpose-built solution for Institutions that want to thrive in the digital assets economy. Private where it matters. Connected where it counts.
Same Institutions. New Stack. Prividium is designed for Institutions that want to thrive in the digital assets economy without sacrificing privacy, compliance, performance and connectivity.
Privacy in Finance should be enforced by mathematics, not managed by trust. Prividium is the only blockchain platform purpose-built for Institutions that demand privacy, compliance, and full control of their data while still being natively connected to Ethereum.
Prividium: The Bank Stack of Ethereum Private where it matters. Connected where it counts. Built-in compliance.
🏛️ The future of Finance won't be built on centralized databases Prividiums are recognized as the best enterprise-grade public chain platform with high throughput, sub-sec ZK finality, selective disclosures and interoperability with Ethereum. x.com/iptf_updates/s…
Institutions face a hard question: private ledgers or public blockchains with cryptographic privacy? Three generations of enterprise blockchains hit the same structural limits. What matters: privacy by policy or privacy by math. New write-up with a decision framework 👇

The Prividium Breakthrough Initiative Imagine a financial system where payments settle in seconds, liquidity moves without friction, data stays private and regulators retain the visibility they need. Citi, Deutsche Bank and 30+ institutions joined us to to explore Prividiums.
Treating privacy and compliance as opposites is an outdated assumption. Modern cryptography allows both to coexist. Prividiums were built to enable this future: private onchain infrastructure where compliance is enforced cryptographically.
The Prividium Difference The only Ethereum secured platform purpose-built for Institutions that demand privacy, compliance, and full control of their data.
The bipartisan text for the Digital Asset Market Clarity Act makes one thing clear: compliance and risk management sit at the center of the onchain economy. But compliance without privacy and control is impossible. This is exactly what Prividiums enable: Incorruptible Finance
ZKsync's L1 Interop solution enables any ZK Chain to natively tap into Ethereum's DeFi liquidity without giving up its own governance, privacy or execution environment. Private where it matters. Connected where it counts.
Visa didn’t win by creating more banks. It won by coordinating settlement. @ethereum is approaching its Visa moment, enabled by @ZKsync, scaling without fragmenting liquidity. DeFi doesn’t need more chains. It needs unified liquidity 👇

zkSync Signals Mass Adoption Phase
zkSync hints at an upcoming phase of **mass adoption at scale** following recent developments. The announcement comes as the Ethereum Layer 2 zkRollup continues its mission to accelerate crypto adoption for personal sovereignty. Key points: - Leadership indicates adoption scaling is imminent - Follows recent strategic conversations and developments - Focus remains on making crypto accessible to mainstream users The brief announcement suggests significant infrastructure or partnership developments may be ready to deploy, though specific details have not yet been disclosed.
Permissioned Platforms Fail Privacy Test, Cryptographic Solutions Needed
A new report from IPTF examines why permissioned blockchain platforms consistently underperform and fail to meet institutional privacy requirements. **Key findings:** - Centralized databases cannot provide the privacy guarantees institutions need - Cryptographic privacy solutions offer the only viable path forward - Enterprise-grade public chains with ZK technology provide better alternatives **Technical advantages highlighted:** - High throughput capabilities - Sub-second zero-knowledge finality - Selective disclosure features - Ethereum interoperability The report argues that genuine privacy requirements demand cryptographic solutions rather than permission-based access controls. Traditional permissioned systems create bottlenecks and fail to scale while compromising on privacy guarantees. Institutions seeking robust privacy protections should evaluate public chain platforms that integrate zero-knowledge proofs and cryptographic privacy features rather than relying on outdated permissioned architectures.

ZK Token Evolves Beyond Governance to Capture Protocol Revenue

**ZK token is transitioning from a pure governance token to a value-accrual model.** The shift enables protocol usage to generate recurring revenue flows back to the ecosystem. This change comes as: - Interoperability solutions approach production readiness - Private institutional chains near deployment - Both onchain and offchain revenue streams are being structured to flow value to $ZK holders through governance mechanisms The evolution represents a fundamental reframing of the token's economic model, moving toward real utility beyond voting rights.
