DFNS 's CPO Chris Sutton runs the payout leg on DFNS using USDC in a Circle Mint dashboard and Circle Mint to deposit into a bank account.

DFNS is the core banking platform for digital assets. Since 2020, we have helped fintechs and institutions build and operate onchain, with the security and reliability expected of systemically important firms. Our platform brings together everything required to run digital asset operations: wallets and key management, transaction processing, treasury, identity and access, policy and workflow orchestration, compliance integrations, and connectivity across 100+ blockchains. DFNS is built to fit an institution's own operating model. Run keys through MPC, HSMs, TEEs, or your own infrastructure. Deploy as SaaS, hybrid, or dedicated. Enforce approvals, limits, roles, and audit controls before any transaction is signed. We are the infrastructure layer between an institution's existing systems and the blockchains where digital assets now move, settle, and generate value. More than 500 institutions and fintechs run on DFNS, including Standard Chartered, First Abu Dhabi Bank, IBM, Broadridge, Apex Group, Stripe, Thunes, Circle, and Barclays. The platform secures over €200B in assets and settles roughly 1% of global stablecoin volume. Come build with us: dfns.co
