Capital On-Chain | Abu Dhabi Finance Week 2025
During Abu Dhabi Finance Week (ADFW), XDC Network, in partnership with Zodia Markets, hosted an exclusive, invite-only private lunch convening senior leaders from global financial institutions to discuss the future of on-chain finance.

The closed-door Capital OnChain gathering brought together representatives from institutions including Citi, State Street, Standard Chartered, Circle, Coinbase, Galaxy, BitGo, and other key players shaping the next phase of institutional blockchain adoption.

Conversations focused on:
• Real-world asset tokenization
• Institutional-grade blockchain infrastructure
• Cross-border settlement efficiency
• Regulatory clarity and market readiness

ADFW—hosted by Abu Dhabi Global Market (ADGM)—continues to position Abu Dhabi as a global center for digital asset innovation, attracting institutions overseeing $42T+ in assets and featuring participation from ecosystem leaders such as VARA, Brevan Howard, Further Ventures, DRW, Galaxy, Selini Capital, and 3iQ Corp.

As institutions move from pilots to production, these strategic dialogues reflect a clear shift toward scalable, compliant, and enterprise-ready blockchain infrastructure—an evolution where XDC Network is increasingly positioned as a foundational layer.

XDC Network recently participated in a closed-door, exploratory discussion at the Astana International Financial Centre (AIFC) - Kazakhstan’s financial hub and regulatory sandbox for capital markets and digital assets, a leading international financial hub operating under English common law and home to a dedicated digital assets regulatory framework, focused on collaboration pathways around tokenization and stablecoins.

The discussion brought together Renat Bekturov, Governor of the Astana International Financial Centre, XDC Network Co-Founder Ritesh Kakkad, and team members of Comtech Gold, an XDC Network ecosystem.

As regulatory frameworks continue to evolve, such dialogues remain critical to aligning blockchain infrastructure with institutional and regulatory expectations.

XDC DeFi Surge Program — Epoch 001: Program Conclusion & Forward Outlook
We’re excited to share that the XDC DeFi Surge Program — Epoch 001 has officially concluded (Oct 30–Dec 25, 2025), marking the first ecosystem-wide DeFi incentive initiative led by the XDC DeFi team.

Over the past two months, we distributed $1.25M in WXDC incentives via Merkl to early liquidity providers. Despite challenging market conditions, the program delivered meaningful, durable results:

🔹 Total Value Locked (TVL) nearly doubled — from ~$12M to ~$24M
🔹 Strong growth in low-volatility, capital-efficient pools, especially in stablecoin and RWA-aligned segments
🔹 Notable inflows in scrvUSD/USDC and ynRWAx/USDC on Curve Finance
🔹 Broadened XDC/USDC liquidity across XSwap, Oku.trade, and Curve, improving market depth

More than just TVL growth, Epoch 001 validated our strategic vision: well-aligned incentives that emphasize stable yield and real economic activity can attract stickier, quality capital rather than pure speculation. This reinforces XDC’s positioning as a network optimized for real-world assets (RWA), trade finance, and structured DeFi products.

Looking ahead to Epoch 002 in 2026, the mission becomes even clearer: enable XDC to serve as a core credit asset, empowering it to be used as collateral for borrowing stablecoins — including USDC — and unlocking money markets with rigorous risk frameworks.

This evolution moves XDC DeFi closer to becoming a foundational on-chain credit layer, where collateral quality, risk evaluation, and real yield drive protocol design.
