Abu Dhabi, UAE, April 22, 2026 – ADI Chain has integrated Fireblocks’ digital asset infrastructure to strengthen secure digital asset operations and institutional-grade custody across its ecosystem.
The integration strengthens ADI Chain’s operational backbone as the network scales to meet growing institutional demand. By leveraging Fireblocks’ multi-party computation (MPC) technology and enterprise-grade custody infrastructure, ADI Chain adds a further layer of security and operational control to the movement of digital assets across its ecosystem – reinforcing the compliance-first approach that underpins every layer of the network.
Fireblocks’ infrastructure – trusted by 2,400+ organizations to secure more than $10 trillion in digital asset transactions across 150+ blockchains – will be utilized across ADI Chain’s expanding suite of institutional use cases, including stablecoin settlement, cross-border payments, and tokenized asset operations. The integration supports ADI Chain’s mission to deliver sovereign-grade blockchain infrastructure that governments, central banks, and financial institutions can build on with confidence.
ADI Chain, built as a zkRollup on Ethereum using ZKsync’s Airbender zero-knowledge proof system, launched its mainnet in December 2024 and has since established an institutional ecosystem that includes memorandums of understanding with BlackRock, Mastercard, and Franklin Templeton and a strategic integration with M-Pesa Africa, reaching 60+ million mobile money users across eight countries.
 
The network also serves as the exclusive settlement layer for DDSC, a dirham-backed stablecoin initiated by International Holding Company (IHC) and First Abu Dhabi Bank (FAB) and licensed by the Central Bank of the UAE. Fireblocks’ infrastructure is expected to play a key role in supporting the secure operational workflows underpinning these initiatives as they move into production at scale.
“As ADI Chain moves from early institutional commitments into live, production-scale deployments, the infrastructure securing those operations has to meet the same standard we set for everything else on this network – sovereign-grade and built for the long term,” said Andrey Lazorenko, CEO at ADI Foundation.
