Zürcher Nachrichten - Blockchain Infrastructure Firm tZERO Integrates with Sui for Institutional-Grade Digital Asset Securities

tZERO Group, Inc., a leader in blockchain-based financial infrastructure, today announced a strategic partnership to integrate directly with the Sui blockchain, unlocking support for issuance, transfer agency, custody, trading, compliance and settlement for regulated digital assets security trading. The integration will expand Sui’s access to institutionally compliant U.S. market infrastructure aimed at building for tokenized markets, and will bring Sui’s deep pool of builders and developers into the tZERO ecosystem.

The announcement brings full integration into tZERO’s U.S.-regulated trading, custody, and issuance framework for the Sui blockchain, providing direct support for institutional-grade tokenization projects and initiatives for projects currently building on the network.

Mustafa Al Niama, Head of Capital Markets at Mysten Labs and former Americas Head of Digital Assets at Goldman Sachs, commented: “Institutional adoption of tokenized assets depends on infrastructure that bridges blockchain innovation with regulatory frameworks. tZERO’s expansion to Sui gives issuers and developers access to regulated issuance, custody, and trading capabilities designed to support that transition, while also taking advantage of Sui’s unique architecture that is built to support institutional workflows.”

Through the integration, tZERO will gain access to a vast pool of developers, builders, and DeFi projects currently being built on Sui, leveraging the extensive knowledge these teams have in building for the network’s unique object-focused architecture. These builders have years of experience creating projects that take advantage of Sui’s highly performant network with near-instant finality, positioning them well to build on infrastructure designed to service institutional needs.

“Sui’s object-centric architecture offers a unique approach to regulated digital assets by making assets and their permissions programmable,” said Alan Konevsky, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of tZERO. “Combined with Sui’s performance, that design creates a strong foundation for the development of next generation regulated financial applications onchain.“

tZERO brings more than 12 years of operational experience in U.S. market compliance and infrastructure development, and is recognized by the SEC with multiple registrations. tZERO is also an active member of FINRA, and has years of experience bridging crypto-native projects into regulated U.S. market applications.

The partnership signals strong continued momentum towards the development of shared blockchain based infrastructure, goals shared by both tZERO and Sui, and directly expands access to support for digital asset securities issued onchain.
