ERC3643 Association Welcomes 24 New Members to Advance the Institutional Tokenization Standard

Press Release
June 10, 2025
Luxembourg

The ERC3643 Association, a non-profit organization eliminating tokenization silos through the ERC-3643 standard, proudly announces the addition of 24 selected new members from across the financial, blockchain, consulting, and compliance industries. 

This new cohort includes a diverse range of leading institutions and builders: 3iQ Corp., ABN AMRO Bank, Ava Labs, Bloctopus, Bolder Group, Cyndicate Club, Deloitte, DTCC, Fireblocks, GODS Network, Halborn, Hedera Foundation, Kynthos Fund Services, Labrys, Monetaforge, NewEra Finance, OpenZeppelin, ONYZE, Pontoro, SODA Labs, Tokenyze, Trustline, tZERO, and Wormhole Foundation.

Leading Institutions Are Operationalizing ERC-3643

DTCC, the world’s largest post-trade financial infrastructure provider, has joined the Association to support the integration of ERC-3643 into its platform. This is a significant validation for the role of ERC-3643 in next-generation capital markets infrastructure.

ABN AMRO Bank has executed one of the earliest real-world deployments of ERC-3643 on a public blockchain. In 2023, it issued a €5 million digital green bond on Polygon, ensuring investor eligibility and transfer restrictions via the ERC-3643 standard. ABN AMRO has also partnered with fellow Association members LayerZero, Labrys, Tokeny, Fasanara, and Polygon to demonstrate a cross-chain solution.

ERC-3643 Drives Fund Tokenization

Tokenized funds are emerging as the next killer use case for institutions, following the success of stablecoins. Money market funds are among the fund classes being tokenized the fastest by major asset managers. ERC-3643, with its compliance-first design and lifecycle control, is quickly becoming the standard of choice.

Apex Group, through its acquisition of Tokeny, now directly brings immediate integration of ERC-3643 across its fund administration, custody, and investor servicing lines. This creates the conditions for ERC-3643 to scale across hundreds of fund managers and asset classes.

New members such as 3iQ Corp., one of Canada’s largest digital asset fund managers, and service providers including Kynthos Fund Services, Bolder Group, NewEra Finance, Cyndicate Club, and Monetaforge are bringing ERC-3643-based fund products to life across North America, Europe, and Asia. From alternative funds and venture capital to tokenized MMFs, these institutions are paving the way for compliant fund offerings onchain.

Blockchain Leaders Build the Rails for ERC-3643

In recent months, the Association has welcomed key blockchain infrastructure partners focused on enabling custody, cross-chain deployment, and token factory integration.

ONYZE, a regulated digital asset custodian in Spain, and Fireblocks, one of the most trusted institutional wallet infrastructure providers, have joined to help demonstrate how custody works for ERC-3643-based tokens. Unlike crypto custody, focused on safekeeping private keys, ERC-3643 token custody is about secure signing operations and access control, as ERC-3643 tokens are recoverable.

To ensure ERC-3643 projects remain secure and standardized, having official onchain token factories on each supported blockchain is critical. New members Ava Labs (Avalanche) and Hedera Foundation enable native deployment of ERC-3643 tokens on their networks using audited and standardized smart contracts, helping scale adoption safely and consistently while contributing to existing projects where network support is needed. 

Wormhole Foundation, one of the most widely adopted cross-chain messaging protocols, is contributing expertise to enable cross-chain portability for ERC-3643 tokens.

tZERO, a leader in technology solutions for capital markets, is able to support ERC-3643 digital asset securities on its end-to-end broker-dealer operated platform for primary issuances and secondary trading.

Additional builders such as SODA Labs, Tokenyze, GODS Network, Bloctopus, and Pontoro are developing token issuance platforms, asset data layers, RWA-focused infrastructure, and tokenised liquidity solutions aligned with ERC-3643, ensuring developers and institutions can launch compliant tokens at scale.

Building the Compliance and Identity Toolkit

ERC-3643’s architecture is rooted in identity-based compliance. New members, such as Trustline, demonstrate that any KYC and external verification solution can be made compatible with ERC-3643’s compliance framework, which acts as an aggregator of verification credentials issued by different providers.

Supporting Adoption Through Integration and Advisory

Adoption requires more than standards, it needs implementation, integration, and trusted guidance. Deloitte, one of the world’s leading professional services firms, joins the Association to provide legal, tax, and regulatory structuring support to institutions adopting ERC-3643.

Labrys, a leading Web3 development studio, is contributing user-friendly interfaces, dashboards, and token lifecycle tools that make ERC-3643 adoption seamless. The team is already actively contributing to Association projects, including cross-chain solutions.

OpenZeppelin builds and maintains some of the most widely used smart contract libraries and open-source tools across multiple smart contract platforms. They aim to support ERC-3643 by adding implementations to their existing libraries, supporting with design and implementation of new features.

ERC-3643 Is Gaining Momentum

From custodians and fund administrators to blockchain foundations and compliance experts, this cohort of 24 new members is helping build the foundation for secure, interoperable tokenized markets. 

The flywheel is turning. More projects are launching. More use cases are published. The ERC-3643 ecosystem is growing, and the future of institutional tokenization is being built right here.
