ADI chain x Alchemy

We're proud to announce that Alchemy is the core infrastructure provider for ADI Chain, a new Layer 2 blockchain built on zkSync's rollup stack. This integration represents continuing momentum in institutional blockchain adoption at multi-national scale.

About ADI Chain

ADI Chain represents a significant milestone in institutional blockchain adoption. ADI Foundation is founded by Sirius International Holding, the private sector force behind Abu Dhabi’s Emerging Tech Economy. ADI Chain establishes regulated blockchain infrastructure designed for financial services at scale.

The project aims to bring 1 billion people onchain by 2030 by serving global markets, including its core markets across the Middle East, Asia and Africa that have limited access to blockchain technology and the real-world benefits it can provide their societies and citizens.

This initiative will be hosting a Dirham-backed stablecoin set to be regulated by the UAE Central Bank, marking a major deployment of blockchain technology for national financial infrastructure. Built on zkSync's ZK-rollup framework, ADI Chain combines Ethereum's security with the performance and compliance capabilities needed for regulated financial applications.

With the goal of reaching 1 billion people across over 20 countries, ADI Chain represents one of the most ambitious blockchain infrastructure projects targeting real-world adoption at national scale.

Powering Critical Applications at Scale

ADI Chain will power critical financial and enterprise applications across five key verticals:

  • Fintech Infrastructure: ADI Chain provides a modular, EVM L2 with programmable compliance for next-gen fintech solutions, from sovereign-grade stablecoins to AI-driven trading platforms and mobile money rails.

  • Cross-Border Payments & Digital Currency: The Dirham-backed stablecoin enables instant 24/7 transactions worldwide — setting a new benchmark for regulated digital currencies.

  • Government Transformation: ADI Chain offers a digital operating system for upgrading identity systems, payments infrastructure, and registries with full regulatory oversight. Over 20 national partnerships are currently active.

  • Supply Chain & Infrastructure: ADI Chain brings visibility to fragmented systems through programmable compliance, real-time tracking, and verifiable credentials across energy, logistics, and trade.

  • Healthcare & Digital Identity: Secure, portable health records are live in MENA and Africa pilots, enabling real-time access and cross-border sharing while maintaining privacy and compliance.

The chain operates with specialized infrastructure requirements to meet regulatory compliance, including on-premise sequencer deployment that ensures operational sovereignty while maintaining blockchain interoperability and the benefits of public infrastructure.
