Startale Announces Startale Onchain Finance Kit, Connecting Institutions to the Future of Onchain Finance

Designed for financial institutions and enterprises, Startale OFK enables institutions to accelerate their journey from traditional finance to the onchain economy seamlessly

Startale Group today announced the launch of Startale OFK (Onchain Finance Kit), a suite of proprietary onchain financial infrastructure software kits designed to help enterprises and financial institutions accelerate their entry into the onchain economy across key markets, including Japan and the United States.

Digital assets have rapidly matured from an emerging technology category into a foundational layer of global financial infrastructure. Institutions across banking, asset management, payments, and capital markets are actively developing strategies around tokenized assets, regulated stablecoins and blockchain-powered financial products. However, translating those strategies into production deployments remains a hurdle and organisations around the world are facing a common challenge: How to move from experimentation to production under local regulations.

Startale OFK is Startale's response to this growing market demand and is uniquely positioned to bridge this gap.

Turning Institutional Ambition into Onchain Reality

Over the past several years, Startale has worked alongside leading enterprises, financial institutions, and ecosystem partners to build and deploy blockchain infrastructure at scale. Through initiatives such as Soneium, JPYSC, Strium, Startale App and other enterprise blockchain projects, the company has developed deep expertise across institutional trading, bond issuance, privacy, developer infrastructure, blockchain development and stablecoins.

The introduction of Startale OFK enables institutions to access proven onchain financial infrastructure through a scalable framework, moving from exploration to production with a partner that has already built and operated these systems at scale.

"Financial institutions are no longer asking whether onchain finance will become part of the future financial system. They are asking how to participate," said Sota Watanabe, CEO of Startale Group. "OFK represents the experience, infrastructure, and expertise we have built over years of working with enterprises and institutions. Our goal is to help organizations move faster, reduce complexity, and unlock new opportunities in the onchain economy."

The Complete Institutional Kit for Onchain Finance

Startale OFK provides financial institutions and enterprises with a defined, ready-to-deploy infrastructure framework, removing the need to build core onchain capabilities inhouse and from the ground up. Each module represents proven, production-grade technology that Startale owns, maintains, and continuously improves across every deployment. Institutions select what they need, integrate through a structured process, and go to market on infrastructure already tested at scale.

The Startale OFK framework will span across the key infrastructure layers of institutional onchain finance, providing a flexible foundation that enables enterprises and financial institutions to launch new products, enter new markets and adapt to the rapidly evolving digital finance landscape. Key infrastructure pillars and tools include:

  • Stablecoin Infrastructure Kit: Infrastructure and management tooling that enables enterprises to operate and utilise JPYSC in accordance to their needs, including treasury management, reporting, and integration with existing financial systems.
  • Wallet Infrastructure and Digital Asset Tools: Multi-chain account abstraction wallets, and infrastructure services that enable enterprises to build seamless digital asset experiences, with future expansion into institutional-grade custody solutions.
  • Privacy Infrastructure Kit: Privacy-enhancing technologies powered by Privacy Boost, enabling compliant and secure onchain transactions for enterprise and institutional applications.
  • Developer Infrastructure Kit: Enterprise-grade blockchain infrastructure, including RPC nodes, APIs, and the Startale App SDK, enabling institutions and developers to seamlessly build applications and services on top of Startale App.
  • Blockchain and Settlement Infrastructure Kit: Layer 1 and Layer 2 blockchain infrastructure, with Strium supporting financial use cases including trading and investment, and Soneium powering entertainment, enterprise, and consumer applications.

Startale also plans to extend OFK with new kits for tokenization and institutional custody, further strengthening the foundation for regulated onchain financial services and digital asset markets.

  • Tokenization Infrastructure: Chain-agnostic infrastructure designed to bring regulated assets onchain, enabling institutions to issue, manage, and distribute tokenized financial products across traditional and blockchain-based systems.
  • Custody Wallet APIs Tools: Enterprise-grade wallet and custody infrastructure designed to support institutional asset management, governance, compliance, and secure interaction with digital asset ecosystems.

Bringing the World Onchain

We believe that the future of finance will be increasingly onchain, led by global institutions connecting traditional systems to open blockchain networks as live, revenue-generating infrastructure.

With an established presence across Japan's financial, regulatory and digital asset ecosystem, Startale is a natural partner for global institutions seeking credible, compliant entry into one of Asia's most strategically important markets. Startale combines deep market access, institutional relationships and proven onchain expertise to turn strategic ambitions into real-world deployments.

Startale OFK further reflects Startale's long-term strategy of building foundational infrastructure for the onchain economy, enabling institutions to launch new products, enter new markets and participate in emerging financial networks without having to develop every component independently.

By owning and continuously evolving the core infrastructure behind Startale OFK, Startale will extend innovations across multiple institutional deployments, creating a scalable platform that strengthens digital capital markets, stablecoins, privacy technologies, developer tools and blockchain infrastructure.
