Bank deposit liabilities tokenized on shared ledgers — FDIC-insured, on balance sheet, exempt from GENIUS Act stablecoin rules.
Tokenized deposits sit alongside stablecoin rails, not under them. A tokenized deposit is a bank liability with FDIC insurance following the deposit (not the token), supervised by the issuing bank's primary federal regulator under existing 12 C.F.R. § 21.21 BSA/AML obligations and Basel III capital rules. A stablecoin is a non-bank liability backed by segregated reserves under GENIUS Act § 4 and the FDIC / OCC / Treasury NPRMs. The two systems compete on the same surface — programmable dollars — but under different regulatory regimes: deposit-insurance law on this rail, payment-stablecoin law on the USDC rail. C6 (Cari–Stablecoin Bridge) is the regulatory boundary crossing where the perimeter changes. The Risk column on this rail exposes the bank-balance-sheet vs. stablecoin-reserve distinction — switch to Risk-only mode (`?reader=risk`) to read the rail as a CRO would. Led by Gene Ludwig, former Comptroller of the Currency.

Converting an existing Demand Deposit Account balance into an on-chain token on Prividium. The token is a direct liability of the issuing bank — not a stablecoin. FDIC insurance follows the deposit, not the token.
Instant deposit transfer between consortium banks on a shared ledger. Huntington customer → KeyCorp customer in seconds, not hours. ZK proofs verify balances without exposing customer data — the "Glass Vault" model.
B2B commercial payment between corporate clients of different consortium banks. Pre-negotiated terms settle atomically on the shared ledger — replacing ACH batch windows with real-time finality.
Automated 24/7/365 treasury balance optimization across consortium banks. Programmatic sweeps move tokenized deposits to where liquidity is needed — bypassing Fedwire windows entirely.
Multi-bank tokenized deposit network with central-bank-money interoperability. Citigroup-led consortium exploring shared settlement of commercial bank money, central bank money, and regulated non-bank digital money on a common ledger.
On/off-ramp between tokenized bank deposits and stablecoins (USDC). The regulatory boundary crossing — a Cari token (bank liability, FDIC-insured) converts to a stablecoin (non-bank liability, reserve-backed). Compliance surface widens at the bridge.
JPMorgan's tokenized deposit for commercial clients — distinct from Kinexys wholesale rails. Deposit tokens represent JPM commercial account balances, enabling programmable payments and 24/7 treasury operations within JPM's ecosystem.
