ERC3643 Association

🚀 ERC-3643 featured in “Interoperability Standards for Digital Assets” by MIT Connection Science and SODA For digital assets to scale, they need to be tokenized on open standards that adapt in real-time to changing regulations, investor eligibility, and market conditions. The white-paper highlights the importance of standards, like ERC-3643, that support: 🔹 Consistent compliance and ownership rules across networks 🔹 Real-time verification and updates for changing regulations 🔹 A standardized framework that works across EVM and non-EVM ecosystems Being highlighted in this collaborative white-paper from top industry leaders, shows that #ERC3643 is a foundation for a compliant, scalable tokenized future.

⚡ ERC-3643 explained by QuillAudits ➡️ Web3 Security 🥷🛡️ ERC-3643 brings trust, compliance, and interoperability to tokenization, while still benefiting from blockchain transparency. A key building block for banks, asset managers, and financial institutions looking to bring real-world assets on-chain, safely and responsibly. Our Chairman of Technology and Security, Joachim Lebrun said, “the RWA market is still very early and highly fragmented: every platform tends to use its own stack, which makes interoperability and scale hard. ERC-3643 has been created to standardize the contract and identity layer for permissioned tokens so that everyone could build on the same, compliance-ready foundation. That convergence is already happening, with more and more institutional players adopting ERC-3643 as their baseline.” Read the full in-depth article here: https://bit.ly/49iZiHU

A new milestone for institutional tokenization and ERC-3643. The SEC has issued a no-action letter to DTC (part of The Depository Trust & Clearing Corporation (DTCC), and a member of the ERC3643 Association), stating that it would not recommend enforcement action for DTC’s planned tokenization services, based on the specific facts presented. This matters. What does this letter actually mean? It is a clear signal of regulatory comfort: under a defined, controlled framework, core market infrastructure can operate tokenization services without triggering enforcement action. Why is this important for ERC-3643? ERC-3643 is one of the “compliance-aware tokenization protocols” that DTC restricts its system to. This reinforces three fundamental truths: 1️⃣ Institutional adoption is inevitable Tokenization is no longer a peripheral experiment. When the backbone of U.S. market infrastructure engages with blockchain-based representation of securities, it confirms that tokenization is becoming part of the regulated financial system. 2️⃣ Standardization is accelerating Institutions do not scale innovation without standards. This step highlights the need for interoperable, compliance-ready token frameworks that work across platforms, service providers, and jurisdictions. This is precisely the role ERC-3643 plays. 3️⃣ Compliance at the token level matters The future of tokenized securities depends on embedding controls directly into tokens so that identity, eligibility, and transfer rules travel with the asset. This is the foundation ERC-3643 was designed for. The bigger picture: This no-action letter does not change the rules. It changes the direction! It shows that regulators are willing to engage pragmatically, and that market infrastructure is ready to move forward with tokenization in a controlled, standardized, and institutionally compatible way. ERC-3643 exists to make that future scalable. Read the full no action letter here: https://bit.ly/4q4P7wc

🚀 The industry keeps building on #ERC3643! The recent Project Guardian report illustrates the implementation of ERC-3643 showing how the smart contracts interact with current off-chain compliance processes for AML/KYC for a tokenised money market fund use case. What has been achieved: 🔹 KYC/AML Integration. All wallet addresses are verified and whitelisted (through the verified onchain identity) post KYC/AML checks, ensuring that tMMF tokens can only be transacted between verified parties. 🔹 On-Chain Controls. Smart contracts enforce compliance rules (ERC-3643), such as transfer restrictions, investor type eligibility, and jurisdictional constraints. 🔹 Audit Trail. All token transfers are immutably recorded on a public blockchain, while sensitive client data remains safeguarded off-chain in traditional database. Read the full report: https://bit.ly/449vnzb

🚀 ERC-3643 moves towards becoming an ISO standard. Together with Tokeny, an Apex Group company and ONYZE, we’re launching the initiative to make ERC-3643 an international ISO standard, led by the Spanish correspondent committee of ISO TC 307. We all know ERC-3643 is widely recognized as the market standard for compliant tokenization in the blockchain world. Making it an ISO standard would translate that market standard into the finance-industry’s established reference framework. What ISO means: 🔹 ISO develops international standards through global expert consensus. 🔹 ISO standards help businesses of all sizes reduce risk, increase productivity, and access new markets. 🔹 They provide a strong basis for regulation, help enterprises operate with clarity, and support interoperability. ERC-3643 becoming an ISO standard is more than formalizing a technical spec, it is the industry capturing its market adoption and turning it into the traditional industry standard. That is when tokenization moves from innovation into mainstream 🔥 Read press release: https://bit.ly/4oYxU7O

🚀 We are proud to announce that ERC-3643 is now fully integrated into Hedera's Asset Tokenization Studio. This integration means more companies can easily issue ERC-3643 permissioned tokens, enforcing compliance and ensuring interoperability. Our Board Member, Luc Falempin explains: “The future of tokenized finance depends on standardization. ERC-3643 gives the industry a common language for compliant tokenization. It not only guarantees a plug-and-play DeFi future with built-in compliance for tokenized regulated assets, but also gives every service provider a clear and interoperable way to operate and serve tokenized assets. Integrating it into the Hedera Asset Tokenization Studio is a strong step forward for the interoperable tokenization era.” The more market participants that adopt common standards, the greater the network effects for tokenization will be.

🗽 Our President, Dennis O'Connell is speaking at #SmartCon hosted by our member Chainlink Labs on November 4-5 in New York. Joining him at 10:30am for the panel ”The Power of Open Standards” are industry experts from Enterprise Ethereum Alliance, and OpenZeppelin. Together, they will share valuable insights into how interoperable and secure standards, like #ERC3643 can bring traditional finance on-chain. More about the event: https://bit.ly/3LcKCAH

🔥 ERC-3643 featured in Forbes as the standard that could unlock a trillion-dollar market. In a historic nod, the U.S. SEC recognized that smart contracts can enforce law, citing ERC-3643 as a framework for on-chain #compliance. Signaling a turning point where regulators embrace on-chain compliance. ERC-3643 was born to solve a problem that held back financial institutions: manual, fragmented compliance. Each tokenized asset carries its own rulebook, enforcing KYC, transfer restrictions, and recovery automatically, real-time compliance built directly into the asset. The author, Jón Helgi Egilsson puts it perfectly: “Law itself now runs on code — with ERC-3643, regulation isn’t enforced later; it happens in real time.“ We’re proud to be driving this transformation with #ERC3643. 🚀 Let’s keep innovating.
