DFNS Rebrands as the Core Banking Platform for Digital Assets

 (BUSINESS WIRE)--DFNS today announced a rebrand, marking its evolution from a wallet infrastructure to the first core banking platform for digital assets. The company is introducing a new logo, website, and market position as fintechs and institutions move their products and operations onchain.

This press release features multimedia. View the full release here: https://www.businesswire.com/news/home/20260603859127/en/

Banks, fintechs, asset managers, trading firms, payment providers, market infrastructures, and clearing houses have stopped asking how to "add crypto." They're asking how to run financial products, controls, workflows, and client services on blockchain rails, with the reliability expected of core infrastructure. Some are going further still, exploring whether the blockchain can serve as the ledger itself, where an account is an onchain object rather than a row in a database. Where IBANs, virtual accounts, and blockchain wallets converge into one governed financial account.

“DFNS was built on a simple assumption. Most financial flows will move from ledgers to blockchains,” said Clarisse Hagège, CEO of DFNS. “Institutions don’t need a wallet. They need a new core system to manage both classic assets and digital assets. We are that infrastructure layer between a company's existing systems and the blockchains where digital assets now move, settle, and generate value.”

DFNS sits between an institution’s business logic and the services powering onchain finance. Its platform brings together wallet-as-a-service capabilities, key management, transaction processing, data integrity, governance and policy enforcement, workflow automations, treasury controls, tokenization engines, compliance integrations, and audit logs in one system across 100+ blockchains and third-parties.

Unlike providers that combine infrastructure with custody, brokerage, or regulated financial services, DFNS operates as a pure technology platform. It does not custody assets, face end clients, or compete with customers. Its role is to help institutions preserve control while modernizing their operations, onchain.

The rebrand includes a new visual identity, website, and product narrative organized around the critical workflows institutions run: wallets, transactions, policies, approvals, compliance, issuance, assets, treasury, and more. Existing APIs, contracts, integrations, and SLAs are unaffected.

DFNS is trusted by 400+ institutions and fintechs globally. The company has secured over €100B in assets, processes roughly 1% of the global stablecoin volume every month, and has had zero security breaches or key losses since 2020.

Seequent and Cascade Institute Partner to Map Canada’s Deep Geothermal Resources

 CALGARY, Alberta - 

State-of-the-art thermal model will provide a nationwide view of subsurface heat to accelerate Canada’s clean energy goals

 

(BUSINESS WIRE)--Seequent, The Bentley Subsurface Company, and the Cascade Institute today announced a collaboration to develop a Canadian Thermal Model. This landmark national initiative will reveal Canada’s deep geothermal resources and accelerate the development of renewable energy. The announcement comes on the opening day of the world’s biggest geothermal event, the World Geothermal Congress, being held in Calgary from 8 to 11 June.

As investment in geothermal energy surges globally as a reliable, always-on clean power source, the Canadian Thermal Model will create a comprehensive national view of deep heat resources using novel machine learning methods to address a long-standing challenge for the sector: limited subsurface data coverage. Seequent is providing access to its world-leading geophysics software to accelerate research into the Earth’s subsurface.

This initiative advances knowledge of Canada’s geothermal energy reserves by integrating geologic and geophysical datasets into InterPIGNN machine learning algorithm for deep heat modelling. By improving confidence in where geothermal resources are located, the model provides a critical foundation to inform investment, policy planning, and project development nationwide.

“Canada has a significant opportunity to advance geothermal when the need for reliable, always-on clean energy has never been greater,” said Jeremy O’Brien, Energy Segment Director, Seequent. “Realizing that potential starts with greater subsurface certainty and making data accessible to key stakeholders. Combining this access with best-in-class geophysics enables more accurate mapping of heat at depth. The Canadian Thermal Model brings these elements together to create a national view of deep geothermal resources, helping to reduce risk, guide investment, and accelerate development.”

The Cascade Institute, a think tank at Royal Roads University focused on high-impact interventions to address humanity’s deepest problems, will lead the project through its Deep Geothermal program. Cascade Institute specialists, working with a team of geoscientists and research partners, including Simon Fraser University, 400C Energy, and the Geological Survey of Canada Pacific Division, will develop the model using data integration workflows supported by Seequent’s Oasis montaj geophysics software. Seequent’s technology will process and visualize the data required to inform energy markets on resource availability and development costs.

“Canada has world-class subsurface expertise and a growing opportunity to lead in geothermal,” said Thomas Homer-Dixon, Executive Director of the Cascade Institute. “This project will provide a foundational resource to demonstrate the technical and economic viability of geothermal energy at scale.”

The Canadian Thermal Model reflects a broader industry shift toward data-driven geothermal development, including next-generation technologies and national-scale resource assessment. It also underscores the growing importance of partnerships between research institutions, technology providers, and the wider energy sector to scale geothermal from opportunity to infrastructure.

Seequent supports more than 60% of the world’s geothermal power generation, with experience spanning next-generation projects such as Fervo Energy’s Cape Station in Utah, and long-established operations including Ormat’s global footprint, reflecting deep expertise that drives the sector forward.

Today, Seequent and the Cascade Institute will present The Next Frontier: Exploring the Potential of Canada’s Deep Geothermal Resources at the World Geothermal Congress. The interactive discussion, hosted at the Seequent booth at 1:30 PM, will provide an in-depth examination of the technical challenges and opportunities associated with deep geothermal systems.
