TOKYO, November 11, 2026 – Datachain, Inc. (“Datachain”) draws on its expertise in blockchain research and development to provide technical support to financial institutions pursuing on-chain finance.

Datachain today announced that it has supported Sumitomo Mitsui Banking Corporation (“SMBC”) in its technical assessment of on-chain financial infrastructure.

As part of this engagement, Datachain helped SMBC organize and evaluate a broad range of technical issues for the on-chain financial infrastructure SMBC is exploring, including the underlying system architecture and privacy protections. The assessment took into account requirements specific to financial institutions, such as governance and controls, sovereignty, scalability, and operational sustainability over the medium to long term.
