ADI Chain, a Layer-2 blockchain developed by the ADI Foundation to support governments and institutions, is pleased to announce its integration with ZIGChain, a Layer 1 blockchain built for wealth management and decentralized asset management. This partnership is aimed at advancing stablecoin-native infrastructure for real-world assets and productive on-chain finance.
The memorandum of understanding (MoU) was signed with ZIG Markets, the specific access and distribution layer within the ZIGChain ecosystem. This MoU provides a sketch for everyday business finance on-chain. The starting attention covers tokenized assets, supply chain finance, working capital for small and mid-sized firms, and tokenized private credit, along with stablecoins as the settlement layer.
The integration of ADI Chain and ZIGChain is very beneficial for both partners, as ADI Chain participates to support high-quality Real-World Assets (RWAs) at an institutional scale for compliance, regulation, and policy framework. On the other hand, ZIG Markets covers essential aspects like origination, tokenization, vault infrastructure, and distribution across a built ecosystem of financial use cases.
Both platforms purposefully made this agreement to join ADI Chain’s settlement infrastructure with ZIG Markets’ tokenized capital markets abilities. With this, assets, liquidity, and distribution can shift across both ecosystems. RWA tokenization is greatly valuable from experiments to institutional infrastructure; RWA approached $19.32 billion at the close of Q1 2026, up 256.
The MoU between ADI Chain and ZIGChain allows both firms to calculate a Shariah-compliant structure. Furthermore, ZIG Markets’ ecosystem already includes contributors like Zamanat and Nawa, who bring tokenization experience around ethical finance. This partnership covers many aspects and expands them, such as trade finance, treasury products, tokenized funds, and extra RWA classes.
Ramana Kumar, President of Stablecoin Ecosystem, ADI Foundation, said: “ADI Chain’s sovereign and Institutional-grade blockchain is best placed to bring high-quality RWAs on-chain to distribute across institutional, semi-institutional, family offices, funds, and retail investor base.”
“Through this MOU with the ZIGChain ecosystem, we’re utilizing our infrastructure and capabilities to build RWA tokens across trade and supply chain receivables, working capital, and private credit with better efficiency and speed compared to traditional financial systems and processes.”
The heads of both platforms gave a statement about this strategic partnership with golden words. Abdul Rafay Gadit, Co-founder, ZIGChain, said, “Real-world assets need more than tokenization; they need origination, capital formation, and distribution. ADI Chain contributes to the regulated settlement.”
“Receivables financing, working capital, private credit, these all need a partner that can structure the asset, bring it on-chain, and attract the right capital to really put it to work. That’s the gap ZIG Markets fills. Together, this is what on-chain capital markets infrastructure is supposed to look like: productive financial activity that institutions, builders, and users can access at scale.
