After two years of rigorous development, we’re proud to introduce Lynq—the first real-time settlement solution that not only enables instantaneous transactions but also delivers yield back to its network participants. Purpose-built to align with today’s regulatory frameworks, Lynq represents a major leap forward in the evolution of digital assets infrastructure.
Built By the Industry, For the Industry
Developed by Arca Labs, Tassat, and tZero in close partnership with some of the most respected leaders in the digital asset space, this settlement architecture was crafted through deep consultation with prime brokers, market makers, exchanges, and stablecoin issuers. The result? A solution created not just for the industry—but by it.
For Arca Labs, Tassat, and tZero, solving one of the most pressing challenges in digital finance was a top priority: slow settlement times, counterparty credit risk, scaling limitations, and yield. As digital asset transaction volumes surge beyond what traditional infrastructure can handle, the limitations of legacy systems become more apparent. Current settlement processes are restricted to traditional business hours, Monday through Friday—which simply doesn't align with the always-on nature of digital assets.
This disconnect not only slows down operations but also increases the risk of outages, errors, and inefficiencies. That’s why we set out to build a solution that supports institutional-grade settlement—seamless, secure, and truly 24/7/365.
Delivering Yield Back to Network Participants
At the heart of Lynq is a commitment to building a solution that reflects the values of the digital assets industry—decentralization, transparency, and shared success. True to this ethos, we designed Lynq so that its benefits extend beyond the creators and reach every participant in the network.
This is where Arca’s Institutional U.S. Treasury Fund (TFND) plays a critical role. As a tokenized fund investing in short-duration U.S. government bonds, TFND serves as the settlement foundation for all transactions on the network. Building on this, Tassat’s patent-pending “yield in transit” mechanism enables participants to earn interest in real time—calculated in five-second increments and distributed daily.
By integrating yield directly into the settlement layer, Lynq doesn't just improve speed and efficiency—it redefines how value flows across financial networks.
Working Within Regulatory Compliant Frameworks
While the industry continues to anticipate clearer regulatory guidance in the U.S. and globally, the exact timing remains uncertain. Contrary to the narrative often portrayed in mainstream media, we believe most participants in the digital asset space are eager to operate within current regulatory frameworks—and many are making the effort to already do so.
That’s why Arca Labs and its core partners have prioritized regulatory alignment from day one. Lynq is built to function within a robust legal framework, leveraging tZERO’s Broker-Dealer and Special Purpose Broker-Dealer licenses, alongside Arca’s Registered Investment Adviser status.
This thoughtfully constructed architecture—combined with Tassat’s proven, real-time blockchain infrastructure—offers institutional-grade features such as segregated account security, transparent proof of reserves, and seamless connectivity across the ecosystem. It’s a modern solution built on the pillars of trust, compliance, and innovation.
