The Cari Network is building a tokenized deposit platform alongside five major U.​S.​ regional banks: Huntington Bank, First Horizon, M&T Bank, KeyBank, and Old National Bank.​

Key distinctions:

• Tokenized deposits are direct bank liabilities, not stablecoins
• Eligible for FDIC insurance and integrated with core banking systems
• Built on ZKsync's Prividium L2 for privacy and compliance

What this enables:

• 24/7 programmable digital money within existing regulatory frameworks
• Real-time cross-border payments with near-instant settlement
• Automated corporate treasury operations
• Intraday repo and secured financing

The five participating banks collectively hold $8.​3 trillion in assets.​ Gene Ludwig, Cari's CEO and former U.​S.​ Comptroller of the Currency, emphasized that banks must lead—not follow—in digital transformation.​

Prividium provides the infrastructure: private execution, built-in compliance controls, and Ethereum-grade security.​ The platform allows regulated institutions to operate blockchain infrastructure while maintaining data privacy and regulatory oversight.​
