Luxembourg – March 21, 2025 – Frictionless Markets, a leader in institutional-grade tokenized cash solutions, today announces a strategic integration with Quai Network, a cutting-edge Proof-of-Work (PoW) blockchain purpose-built for scalability and high-performance decentralized applications. This collaboration marks a foundational step in bringing institutional-grade, real-world financial instruments fully on-chain — including the forthcoming Quai-yielding Money Market Fund (MMF).
This integration allows Frictionless Markets to bring institutional cash products directly into the Quai ecosystem, paving the way for investors to access real yield from energy-backed instruments like the upcoming Qi Dollar and Quai’s Liquid Mining Tokens while preserving dollar value through Frictionless Institutional Cash Funds.
By natively deploying our institutional-grade, US dollar-backed instruments on Quai, we’re providing Quai Network participants with access to the stability of the dollar — along with the composability of the U.S. Treasury risk-free rate — to earn yield in QUAI.
Quai offers the knockout combination of scalability and decentralization that institutional finance demands. Through this collaboration, we are bridging traditional cash markets with next-generation on-chain infrastructure — empowering capital allocators to capture new forms of yield with full institutional-grade compliance and transparency.
Frictionless Markets enable us to unlock the next frontier of on-chain finance — moving beyond synthetic assets into real, institutional-grade products. This is a foundational moment for capital formation, liquidity growth, and DeFi infrastructure on Quai
The phased rollout begins with tokenized institutional deposits and U.S. Treasury-backed assets, with the Quai-yielding MMF and Qi Dollar launching in subsequent phases. This collaboration highlights the growing role of Proof-of-Work networks in building the infrastructure for institutional DeFi.
