[PRESS RELEASE – San Francisco, CA, February 28th, 2025] Sealance’s Zero Knowledge Privacy-Preserving Technology and Industry-Leading Team to Bolster Forte’s Rules Engine Solutions for Web3 Developers Forte, the premier on-chain compliance solution for blockchain projects, has acquired Sealance Corp., the creators of the first zero-knowledge (ZK) policy engine to facilitate regulatory compliance on decentralized blockchains. Through this integration, Web3 developers can now leverage the ZK policy engine with Forte’s Rules Engine to conduct compliant KYC verification and manage on-chain identities across Real-World Assets (RWAs), stablecoins, DeFi, and institutional use cases – all while maintaining privacy through Sealance’s ZK technology. “We have created a framework where trust, compliance, and privacy coexist together,” said Matthew Green, co-founder of Sealance. “We are driving innovation in tokenized identity and programmable compliance to address one of the most significant challenges to crypto adoption: establishing confidence in decentralized technologies.
