ZIGChain Adopts Zoniqx’s Compliance-Embedded Tokenization Framework to Power Regulated Digital Wealth Markets

[Abu Dhabi], [8th Dec 2025] – Zoniqx and Zigchain today at RWA Connect event in Abu Dhabi introduced a unified digital infrastructure designed to power the next era of institutional wealth creation through tokenized assets. The initiative brings together Zoniqx’s compliance-embedded tokenization architecture with Zigchain’s purpose-built Layer 1 blockchain engineered for wealth generation, creating a single foundation for regulated, scalable, and transparent digital wealth products.

As global markets move toward tokenized financial instruments, institutions face critical structural challenges: fragmented regulatory frameworks, operational inefficiencies, legacy infrastructure limitations, and the absence of a unified system capable of supporting compliant, cross-border wealth solutions. Traditional systems lack programmability, while many blockchain ecosystems lack regulatory alignment, slowing institutional adoption.

Zoniqx and Zigchain address this gap by enabling financial institutions, asset managers, and fintech builders to issue, manage, and distribute wealth products backed by real-world assets on a compliant and automated infrastructure layer.

A Market in Need of a Unified Standard  

Despite rising interest in asset tokenization, the industry continues to operate within siloed ecosystems that make launching and scaling regulated wealth products difficult.

Key challenges include:
• Inconsistent global regulations creating operational and legal friction
• Manual compliance workflows that impede digital scalability
• Lack of lifecycle automation across issuance, onboarding, and distribution
• Fragmented technology stacks that increase cost and risk
• Limited transparency and auditability for investors and regulators

For institutions to adopt tokenized wealth products at scale, the market requires a secure, programmable, and compliance-first foundation that integrates seamlessly into existing financial operations.

A Comprehensive Infrastructure for Tokenized Wealth  

Zoniqx and Zigchain now offer a combined framework that creates this foundational layer.

Zoniqx Enables Institutional-Grade Tokenization  

Through innovations such as zProtocol (DyCIST / ERC-7518), jurisdictional rule-sets, compliance vouchers, and the z360 lifecycle management platform, Zoniqx ensures every digital instrument operates with automated compliance and regulatory integrity. Asset workflows, issuance, investor onboarding, validation, transfers, and distributions, are fully automated and verifiable.

Zigchain Provides a Blockchain Purpose-Built for Wealth Generation  

Zigchain delivers the execution environment required for modern financial applications, offering deterministic throughput, transparent accounting, programmable financial logic, and an architecture optimized for building, managing, and scaling wealth products.

Together, they create:  

• A unified compliance and execution engine for on-chain wealth markets
• Automated, end-to-end lifecycle management for tokenized products
• A development-ready environment for financial platforms and fintech builders
• Infrastructure for real-world asset–backed portfolios, income strategies, and structured wealth products
• Scalable pathways for distribution across retail, advisory, and institutional channels

With this framework, institutions gain the ability to deploy wealth products with regulatory certainty, operational efficiency, and transparent real-time accountability.

“The integration of Zoniqx with ZIGChain is more than a technical milestone — it marks the beginning of a new operating standard for real-world assets on-chain. Institutions need infrastructure that respects regulatory realities while unlocking the efficiencies of blockchain, but the broader mission is even greater: expanding access. By combining Zoniqx’s lifecycle engine with ZIGChain’s institutional settlement layer, we are building a foundation for global, interoperable, and inclusive RWA markets, where transparent, asset-backed opportunities can reach both institutions and everyday participants.” — Abdul Rafay Gadit, Co-Founder, ZIGChain

“At Zoniqx, our mission has always been to redefine how real-world assets are created, managed, and transacted on-chain. The integration with ZIGChain is a decisive step toward that vision. Institutions are no longer asking if tokenization will scale, they are asking how it will scale safely, compliantly, and across jurisdictions. By bringing our lifecycle engine onto a settlement layer purpose-built for institutional performance, we are delivering the clarity and operational certainty global markets have been waiting for. This is the infrastructure that moves the industry from pilots to production.” — Prasanth Kalangi, Co-Founder & CEO, Zoniqx
