Tokenization Firm Dinari to Launch Dinari Financial Network Blockchain

Dinari, a U.S.-based provider of tokenized public securities, is launching the Dinari Financial Network, a blockchain aimed at facilitating coordination and settlement for securities across platforms like Arbitrum, Base, Plume, and Solana. The network is built on Avalanche's tech stack.

  • The test net is live; public launch expected soon.
  • Dinari aims to enable round-the-clock trading and faster settlements with lower costs through tokenization.
  • In June, Dinari secured broker-dealer registration from FINRA to tokenize National Market System securities.
  • Dinari provides tokenization infrastructure for Gemini's stock tokens in the EU.
  • The move reflects a trend among fintechs to establish proprietary blockchains for better regulatory compliance and integration with traditional finance.
  • Dinari's chain intends to unify liquidity across various blockchains to prevent market fragmentation.
  • Governance will initially involve institutions like Gemini, BitGo, and VanEck; plans for future decentralization include a governance token.

Dinari aims to become a neutral clearinghouse similar to the Depository Trust and Clearing Corporation, enhancing compliant trading of U.S. equities globally.
