Supernodes

Named institutions anchor the network.

Consensus authority held by regulated institutions whose names stand behind settlement. By approval, not application.

What a supernode is

Consensus authority with a name attached.

Consensus authority

A seat in the network's authority set, with a direct role in settlement consensus.

Settlement attestation

Attests cross-chain settlement for its corridor, standing behind finality with its name.

Issuer and identity authority

Write authority over the issuer registry and identity for its corridor.

Corridor-scoped controls

Defined emergency controls to pause or unwind activity in its corridor under agreed rules.

The number of institutions qualified to hold a supernode is deliberately small. Each seat is named, bonded, and accountable.

Use cases

Two ways institutions use a supernode.

Financial institutions

  • Settlement finality for tokenized deposits and securities

  • Atomic, same-day delivery-versus-payment

  • Compliance-gated corridors under your rules

  • A seat in the standards while they are being written

Blockchains and protocols

  • Connect your chain to regulated settlement

  • No lock-and-mint bridge, no wrapped assets

  • Inherit identity and compliance from the network

  • Access institutional liquidity

Why it is not a bridge

Named institutions, not anonymous committees.

A typical bridge

  • Anonymous multisig committees hold the keys

  • Wrapped tokens stand in for real assets

  • Failure behavior is undefined until it happens

A supernode corridor

  • Named, bonded, regulated institutions attest settlement

  • Native assets settle on their own networks

  • Defined failure and compensation behavior, agreed in advance

Engagement path

From briefing to production.

No token purchase or custody arrangement is required to begin.

1

Briefing

A working session with our institutional team, under NDA, covering the corridor model, duties, and specifications.

2

Scoped testnet corridor

A corridor scoped to your use case runs on testnet with your team, proving the settlement flow end to end.

3

Production

Your institution takes its seat as a named supernode, with agreed duties and controls in force.

  • Regulated entity in good standing
