Who It's For

For companies facing
these challenges

For financial institutions and enterprises facing technical decision-making challenges while exploring or driving on-chain financial services. We welcome inquiries from the concept stage.

Evaluating technical requirements & architectureYou haven't established criteria for selecting technologies — whether blockchain is needed, tokenized deposits vs. stablecoins, chain type, and more.
Translating concepts into technical requirementsYour business concept is set, but you can't break it down into implementable requirements such as issuance/transfer flows, privacy, and key management.
Moving from PoC to commercializationYour proof of concept is complete, but you can't map the technical path to commercialization, including production operations and monitoring.

Scope

Scope of Support

Starting from your idea (even at a rough stage), we guide you from requirements definition to commercialization. As needed, we also develop blockchain-related systems and provide our own products. Our scope of support is organized into the following two zones.

Datachain handles the blockchain domain, while surrounding areas are supported together with partners.

Process

How We Work

From technical concept review to commercialization, we guide you through five steps. Below are examples of the points addressed at each step.

01

Technical concept review

Whether blockchain is truly needed / Tokenized deposits vs. stablecoins / Public vs. permissioned chain
02

Requirements definition

Issuance, redemption and transfer flows / How much transaction data to keep confidential (privacy) / Key management and custody
03

Design & development

Chain selection / Smart contract design / Cross-chain interoperability and wallet design / Integration architecture with existing systems
04

Validation

PoC design and evaluation criteria / Operational validation such as DvP settlement / Performance and cost validation
05

Commercialization

Migration to production / Advice on building operations and monitoring

Why Datachain

Why Datachain

As a technology company that researches, develops, and brings on-chain finance infrastructure to market ourselves, we assess what is feasible from the outset and design what can actually be built.

01

Implementation power — from R&D to market, all in-house

Since our founding in 2018, we have continuously pursued R&D centered on blockchain. The results are productized and brought to market as our enterprise wallet Datachain Wallet, our on-chain privacy platform KuraPrivacy, and our cross-chain infrastructure. Because we handle research, open source, products, and real projects with financial institutions ourselves, our technical decisions are grounded in actually running systems — not desk-bound designs.

02

Experts who understand both finance and blockchain

Members who have worked in financial operations at global financial institutions and major consulting firms work alongside engineers who build blockchain infrastructure, as one team. Our strength is organizing technical options while understanding the controls and operational requirements financial institutions demand. We also contribute to policy-level discussions, including presentations to the LDP's project team.

03

Surrounding areas covered — together with partners

Realizing on-chain financial services involves many areas beyond blockchain: regulatory design and licensing, development of existing systems, business process design, and more. Datachain works with partners strong in each area and, from our position handling the blockchain domain, helps assemble the overall structure you need. Start with Datachain, and you won't need to find a contact for each area.

Products

Our Products

As needed, we can also provide our own in-house products.

* This is not support premised on product adoption. We provide products only when needed, based on your requirements.

FAQ

Can we consult even before our idea is finalized?

Yes. You can consult from the concept stage — we guide you starting with a technical concept review.

Can we request only part of the process?

Yes. You can request only the steps you need, such as requirements definition only or validation only.

Is adopting your products a prerequisite?

No. We provide them as needed, but never offer support premised on adoption.

Can you also develop our existing systems?

We handle this in collaboration with partners. The design of integration with blockchain is handled by Datachain.

How are regulations and licensing handled?

We support this in collaboration with partners strong in regulation and licensing.
