No stories. Announcements only.

Settlement infrastructure earns trust by having no stories to tell, and we intend to have none. What we have instead are announcements: dated, checkable and rare on purpose. If it appears here, it happened.

AUG 2026 Protocol

The protocol runs the full lifecycle end to end

KeyStone's neutral settlement protocol is running the full lifecycle against real ledger integrations: atomic delivery-versus-payment across books, policy before commitment, anchored proof after it. Access by arrangement with the firm.

JUL 2026 Assurance

Independent assurance underway

SOC 2 Type II examination and ISO 27001 certification are in progress. Each will be stated on the Settlement Compliance page when issued, and not a day before.

Screening and the evidentiary record of every KeyStone settlement run on named infrastructure: LSEG World-Check for entity screening, CipherOwl for wallet screening, Chainlink for price, data and cross-chain messaging, and LayerZero for cross-chain messaging.

For journalists

What to say about a firmbuilt to be unseen.

The boilerplate on the right is the description we stand behind, in one paragraph. For interviews, background or the marks and assets, write to us and a person will answer.

Boilerplate KeyStone is the neutral settlement layer for tokenized finance. The KeyStone Protocol settles every leg of a transaction across ledgers of every kind, public networks, consortium ledgers, and the books depositories, clearing houses and exchanges built themselves, in one movement: policy before commitment, anchored proof after it. KeyStone never holds assets, matches trades or bridges chains, which is what lets the protocol coordinate settlement between firms that cannot settle with each other. The firm is KeyStone OS Inc., and the protocol runs the full lifecycle end to end.
