The DeFi (Decentralized Finance) sector has experienced an exponential rise over the past few years, fueling a wave of innovation that has radically reshaped the landscape of the financial industry. The flexibility, transparency, and decentralization inherent to DeFi have presented transformative opportunities for both businesses and individual users.
However, the sector isn’t without its challenges, notably in terms of compliance with regulatory frameworks and the need to maintain user trust in a decentralized environment. Bridging this gap is a key priority for numerous players in the industry.
In this regard, AllianceBlock — renowned for devising solutions that address real-world challenges plaguing the DeFi sector — recently announced its integration with the layer 2 scaling platform Arbitrum. Since its inception, AllianceBlock has forged numerous partnerships with popular blockchain projects like Ethereum, Polygon, and Avalanche.
Moreover, Arbitrum has garnered significant attention owing to its impressive handling capacity of over 40,000 transactions per second (TPS), dwarfing Ethereum’s sub-40 TPS capacity. It effectively addresses Ethereum scaling issues by rolling tens of thousands of transactions into a single batch, reducing congestion on ETH’s layer-1.
Exploring AllianceBlock’s Initial Deployments on Arbitrum
The integration with Arbitrum begins with two unique deployments, adding to the existing support offered by AllianceBlock Bridge. The first deployment involves the peer-to-peer capital raising protocol, Fundrs, and the first-ever QRC20-based standard token project listing Galilieo Protocol. The second deployment introduces NexeraID, a self-sovereign identity issuance and verification platform, to the Arbitrum ecosystem. It offers a compliance solution for builders and opens doors to adopting institutional partners.
These integrations provide users with an efficient, safe, and compliant means of innovating within the burgeoning DeFi ecosystem as well as enhance Arbitrum’s development — all while ensuring compliance.
Driving Blockchain Adoption and Compliance
Institutional and mainstream adoption is vital for any project’s success. By integrating NexeraID and its ‘Compliance module,’ startups on Arbitrum can meet regulatory requirements with ease, thereby gaining access to a wide array of investors.
In essence, NexeraID is a comprehensive platform that simplifies the user onboarding process to Web3 systems while streamlining complex compliance workflows. Not only that, it also helps safeguard users’ identities and assets — via self-sovereign IDs — a market space that has been gaining a lot of attention in recent years. To this point, the market size of digital identity solutions are expected to nearly double from $13.7 billion in 2020 to $30.5 billion by 2025. Integrating NexeraID’s Compliance module enables ARB builders to adapt to new regulations — such as the EU’s MiCA framework — crypto regulations, creating a safer and compliant ecosystem.
Lastly, with multiple modules designed for diverse use cases, NexeraID offers a flexible smart wallet solution for managing digital assets and verifiable credentials, along with an embedded solution that ensures compliance with necessary frameworks and requirements.
Enabling Compliant Capital-Raising for Arbitrum Builders
In an industry as dynamic and rapidly evolving as DeFi, the need for efficient and compliant capital-raising strategies is paramount. In this regard, AllianceBlock’s Fundrs and NexeraID offerings are stepping up to the challenge, creating a transformative impact within the Arbitrum ecosystem.
Fundrs, AllianceBlock’s peer-to-peer capital-raising protocol, brings a novel approach to the traditional funding model used by most blockchain startups and crypto investors. It does so by introducing capital accrual avenues such as private sales, presales, and milestone-based financing. Complementing this service is NexeraID, which helps with the issuance of self-sovereign identities and serves as the bedrock of trust and compliance within the ecosystem, thus allowing startups to adhere to the various regulatory requirements across the globe.
The integration of these two solutions not only streamlines the process of capital raising but also instills an inherent layer of trust and accountability within the ecosystem. This strategic fusion stands to catalyze Arbitrum’s growth and evolution, offering builders a robust, compliant, and effective way to access new funding opportunities and accelerate innovation.
Looking ahead
NexeraID and Fundrs SDKs incorporation into the Arbitrum ecosystem facilitates the creation of innovative, compliant web3 applications. As more assets are tokenized and traded on DeFi platforms, regulatory compliance will become increasingly crucial. With the introduction of AllianceBlock’s aforementioned solutions, developers can meet these requirements while pushing the boundaries of what’s possible with DeFi. Therefore, it will be interesting to see how this space continues to evolve from here on out.
