Where should the fiat sit that backs a tokenised deposit? And which ledger is the source of truth?

Our new joint point of view with @Capgemini, drawing on our work building #GBTD's infrastructure, breaks down the mirror vs. omnibus account models and what it takes to get from strategy to production.

#TokenisedDeposits #Payments #DLT

[Quant @quantnetwork]

Last night at Mansion House, the Chancellor gave a strong update on #UKfintech: GBTD moving to live transactions, the UK's stablecoin regime, agentic payment tools, and plans for the UK to become the first G7 country to issue a Digital Sovereign Bond.

#GBTD moving from concept to live transactions is a strong signal that #tokeniseddeposits are becoming an operational reality, and that interoperability between traditional and tokenised infrastructure is now a policy priority. That's the gap we've built our platform to close.

AI agents are increasingly making transactions, executing trades, and settling obligations autonomously and at machine speed. The infrastructure behind these payments needs to be fit for purpose.

Banks authorise transactions and provide safeguards to our money. Agentic AI transactions should be no different, operating within the secure guardrails of bank security and protection.

That's why @quantnetwork has joined the x402 Foundation, hosted by The Linux Foundation.

Our @FusionLayer25 multi-ledger rollup is x402-ready today, across 70+ networks.

Interoperability between decentralised and institutional finance is what we're building.

Today, our CEO, @gverdian, joined a panel at the @UKFtweets #DigitalInnovationSummit on tokenisation and GBTD alongside representatives from @Barclays, @LloydsBank and @NatWestGroup.

"This is the world's first tokenised deposit payment system built for industry, by industry - an essential orchestration layer that gives every participant the ability to innovate, differentiate and compete."

Full insights coming soon.

Three shifts are defining the next generation of #financialinfrastructure: settlement moving from batch to continuous, siloed systems becoming interoperable, and manual processes becoming programmable.

2026 is when it stops being a roadmap and starts being operational: https://t.co/126YaEbRLa

Today we go live on mainnet with the Fusion Rollup, the world's first multi-ledger rollup, connecting 74 blockchain networks in one unified environment, built for institutions.

When I started @quantnetwork in 2015, the vision was simple: make blockchain work for institutions at scale across any network, without the complexity and fragmentation that's held the industry back.

For years, institutions had two bad options: bet everything on a single chain, or stitch together insecure bridges across many. Fusion refuses that trade-off. It connects to many networks at once, moving assets, settling transactions, and messaging across chains as built-in capabilities, not workarounds.

The breakthrough is unified assets. A example of a stablecoin like USDC or tokenised fund like BUIDL or any other digital assetspread across 7 chains collapses into one: uUSDC or uBUIDL. One asset, one liquidity pool, instead of 7 copies and 7 fragmented pools. Each stays anchored to its origin chain and is withdrawable anytime. No custody or compliance trade-offs.

This isn't another layer 2 or a blockchain. It's a new category of infrastructure and it's live.

7/ And it's accountable by design. Governance and compliance aren't bolted on, they're enforced at every layer, on the platform and on chain.
That's the difference between a demo and infrastructure a bank can actually run.

[Gilbert Verdian @gverdian]

Tokenised deposits or stablecoins? Both?

Spent yesterday at @NachaOnline #Payments2026 in San Diego debating exactly that with colleagues from TD, Northern Trust and Trovata.

The transformation of financial services isn’t theoretical anymore, it’s an architecture question, enabled by institutional interoperability, programmability of digital assets and tokenised money.

[Quant @quantnetwork]

Tokenised deposits and real-world assets have crossed $100 billion. For banks and capital markets firms, operationalising tokenisation without dismantling what already works is now the defining challenge.

Our partnership with Murex addresses that directly. Integrating Quant's programmable money infrastructure into MX.3 means institutions can issue, settle and manage tokenised deposits and digital bonds within their existing operational framework, with the same risk management, compliance and post-trade processes they already rely on.

As @gverdian puts it: 'The next generation of capital markets infrastructure will not replace what works. It will make what works programmable.'

I’m delighted to announce that @quantnetwork and Murex are partnering to bring tokenised deposits and digital bond settlement into MX.3.

Institutions have been asking the same question. How do we move forward with tokenisation without disrupting the trading, risk and post-trade operations we depend on?

The answer is now inside the platform they already use.

Tokenised RWAs just crossed $100 billion. DTCC has SEC approval to tokenise real-world assets from mid-2026 and major UK banks are already working with Quant through the Great Britain Tokenised Deposit initiative - all of which signals that the market is moving. 
Users in banks, asset managers, insurance companies, pension funds, hedge funds, corporations and energy utilities in over 65 countries now have a production-ready path into tokenisation through the systems they already run.

The shift toward Treasury-as-a-Service represents more than organisational restructuring. It reflects the reality that modern #treasuryoperations require technology infrastructure capable of delivering instant liquidity visibility, automated #cashmanagement, and seamless integration with both banking partners and internal systems, capabilities that legacy #treasurymanagement systems were never designed to provide.
