Monument is set to become the first UK-regulated bank to tokenize retail customer deposits on a public blockchain — representing interest-bearing savings as digital tokens while remaining fully backed, redeemable in GBP, and protected under existing regulatory frameworks.
Built on Midnight’s privacy-enhancing blockchain infrastructure, this approach ensures that transaction data remains shielded and accessible only to authorized participants — enabling the use of blockchain technology while maintaining the confidentiality and compliance required in regulated financial services.
The initiative begins with a target of £250 million in tokenized deposits and represents the first phase in a broader rollout to expand access to tokenized financial products. Over time, this includes enabling exposure to asset classes such as private equity and structured products, and introducing more flexible lending models — capabilities historically reserved for institutional and private banking clients.
Together, this partnership demonstrates how regulated financial institutions can bring traditional financial products on-chain — unlocking a more flexible, accessible, and programmable financial system without compromising privacy or regulatory standards. @MidnightNetwork #night $NIGHT
Most identity solutions promise control, but #SignDigitalSovereignInfra makes it usable. It turns identity into real infrastructure, especially valuable for growing digital economies like the Middle East.
In today’s digital world, proving who you are online matters more than ever. The Sign project was built to make it easier for people and businesses to verify identities and share credentials securely, using blockchain technology. It also helps projects distribute tokens in a smarter and more flexible way.
What Is the $SIGN Project? The Sign project addresses the need for secure, verifiable, and accessible credentials in the digital world. Combining blockchain technology, smart contracts, and privacy measures, Sign offers a decentralized approach to verifying identity, ownership, and contracts across multiple blockchain networks.
The network of federated node operators continues to grow as @MidnightNetwork moves toward mainnet.
Now part of one of the world’s largest merchant services providers, serving 6M+ merchants and processing $3.7T in payments annually across 175+ countries, Worldpay joins as a federated node operator — bringing global-scale payments infrastructure to Midnight.
Their proof of concept will explore stablecoin payment infrastructure using USDG, demonstrating how merchant networks can adopt DeFi-native settlement rails while maintaining AML/KYC compliance and transaction confidentiality across B2B and B2C flows.
Their participation strengthens Midnight’s launch network as the protocol prepares for stable early mainnet operations.
