Sovereign Network Interoperability. Connect your ledger. Keep control.
Institutions have spent years building their ledgers. We're building the technology to make them work together.
Keep your ledger, your rules and your participants, and still transact with the rest of the market.
Nothing moves to a shared ledger, and no bridge sits in between. Interoperability works on top of the ledger you already run.
Nothing to replace
We start from the ledger you run.
Your data stays yours
You decide who takes part and what is disclosed.
Start with one connection
Add counterparties and workflows as you go.
No lock-in
Add or remove a protocol.
What you can do
Collateral mobility
Securities settlement
Wholesale and cross-currency payments
Funds and asset servicing
Settle across ledgers, without a bridge.
No wrapped asset. Your asset settles on its own ledger, not as a copy issued elsewhere.
No bridge operator to trust. A cryptographic proof is checked instead.
All or nothing. The delivery and the payment settle together, or not at all.
Institutions need to reach new and existing counterparties without sacrificing privacy, while keeping control of their infrastructure and the flexibility to choose how they connect. We have spent a decade building blockchain technology for financial institutions. We bring protocol expertise, transaction coordination and complete support into one product: a simpler path to each new connection, with clear accountability for keeping the full stack working for years to come.
Tell us which counterparties you need to reach.
A few lines about your ledger and your counterparties. The team behind Sovereign Network Interoperability will get back to you.
Sovereign Network Interoperability, answered.
Who is Sovereign Network Interoperability for?
Financial institutions and market infrastructures that need to complete a transaction with a counterparty on another ledger. The starting point is a specific business need, settling a security, exchanging currencies, posting collateral, purchasing a fund unit, or putting a treasurer’s idle cash to work, with identifiable asset owners, counterparties and operating requirements.
What would institutions actually buy?
The required protocol integrations, transaction interface, supported software versions, outcome tracking and maintenance. Managed operations can be included. The scope specifies the participating networks, permitted actions, verification model and responsibilities when something needs attention.
How would an institutional team use it?
The team submits an instruction through our system via a common interface, through their existing app. Our solution selects an eligible route per your pre-approved requirements, coordinates the actions on each ledger and reports completion, failure or a condition requiring intervention.
Do we need to replace our ledger or existing systems?
No. We start by assessing your existing infrastructure. Supported networks may connect through software upgrades, contracts or adapters; institutions establishing a new network can plan deployment and connectivity together.
Which networks can connect, and what is available today?
EVM-based chains compatibility, with Canton coming next.
What does “bridgeless” mean, and what would we still need to trust?
The design priority is to coordinate transactions on the ledgers where assets are recorded, avoiding the need to move them into bridge-issued representations and increase fragmentation. Our proof-based approach aims to replace additional trusted verification intermediaries with cryptographic checks. Participating ledgers, their consensus, verification software, and operational controls still have defined trust assumptions, and our role is to ensure participants always select the most secure protocol when interacting across heterogeneous network topologies.
Does every connection provide atomic settlement?
Yes, always. Either synchronously or asynchronously, depending on the specific network topologies and underlying technologies.
What happens if a transaction fails or a service goes offline?
Recovery guarantees are agreed upon for the selected flows, including defined recovery time and recovery point objectives, backup and restoration procedures, and clear ownership for meeting them.
Who can see our data and control our transactions?
The institution and its scheme determine who may participate, which actions are permitted, and what information must be disclosed within their respective ledgers. Proof-based interoperability ensures that no sovereign data leaks to external participants.
Must Consensys operate the product?
Planned options include operation by an institution or financial market infrastructure and Consensys-managed services. Consensys supplies the supported technology and maintenance in each model. Hosting, keys, administration, monitoring and incident responsibilities are assigned explicitly.
Who supports us when something changes or breaks?
Consensys provides end-to-end support for the complete software stack, including the open-source components that we maintain and fix directly. Institutions have a single accountable support relationship with Consensys, while Consensys coordinates the relevant engineering teams and upstream open-source work where required.
Planned support covers compatible releases, security fixes, upgrades and revalidation of affected connections. Coverage hours, response targets and recovery responsibilities depend on the service purchased and the participating networks; they are specified in an agreement with Consensys.
Can we change operators or add another protocol later?
The product is intended to support expansion through reusable adapters and a maintained interface. Consensys's interoperability specialists audit emerging protocols, propose new protocols as they arise, and frequently expand the protocols it currently supports to increase capability and coverage.
How much does it cost?
Pricing is scoped to the responsibilities supplied. The proposed structure combines setup and integration, recurring technology maintenance and support, managed operations where required, and transaction services where applicable.
