🌌 When Compliance Transforms from a Constraint to a Catalyst for Innovation



There is a project that has been doing one "unsexy" thing—reassembling the underlying logic of traditional finance and blockchain.

Recently, they partnered with NPEX, a licensed exchange in the Netherlands, to move €300 million of traditional assets onto the blockchain, turning them into programmable securities. This is not just about relocating assets; it’s a true integration of regulatory frameworks and blockchain technology—institutional investors are already lining up on the waitlist.

⚡ How to Break the "Compliance Curse" of EVM Chains?

Most EVM chains are swinging between "decentralization" and "regulatory compliance"—either sacrificing privacy or compliance. Someone has found another way—modular architecture:

L1 native settlement ensures each transaction is tamper-proof and compliant with MiCA regulations; Solidity compatibility allows institutions to use their existing code without rewriting; a dual-track privacy audit system enables regulators to verify transaction legality while keeping user transaction details fully encrypted from external view.

💡 How can two seemingly contradictory requirements be satisfied simultaneously?

Zero-knowledge proofs combined with homomorphic encryption achieve the most difficult balance in financial transactions: auditors can verify transaction legality, while user privacy is fully protected. This "selective transparency" design is becoming the standard approach for RWA and Security Token Offerings (STO).

Since its founding in 2018, this project's Layer 1 public chain has always focused on "institutional-grade compliance and privacy." While others chase short-term hot topics, they are building a new financial infrastructure system—in this system, compliance is not a shackle but a catalyst.

🚀 The financial landscape of 2026 may begin with the first compliant on-chain securities transaction.

Oh no, it's another compliance story. This time it looks a bit interesting.

This is the right way. Finally, someone is taking compliance seriously. I'm already tired of those wild-growth projects, each of which eventually collapses. This approach is indeed different—zero-knowledge proofs combined with homomorphic encryption. It sounds redundant, but upon closer inspection, it really solves a dead-end problem. Institutions are coming in with this set of tools; privacy and auditability are both necessary. €300 million has been on-chain? Then large-scale RWA is not far off.

Is compliance the catalyst? Sounds sophisticated, but in reality, it's just opening a backdoor for institutions.

Really? Zero-knowledge proofs handle privacy and compliance? It sounds like a pipe dream.

After research and analysis, this zero-knowledge proof combined with homomorphic encryption scheme sounds promising, but it depends on the background of the project team. It was founded in 2018 and I haven't heard of it until now.

Wait, institutions rushing to get on the chain? Isn't this a sign of RWA taking off?

It's the same narrative again, and it's making my ears tingle. Zero-knowledge proofs, homomorphic encryption... sound impressive, but how does it actually work in practice? Are institutions really lining up? Or is this just another pre-funding story?
