Infrastructure for Regulated Onchain Assets
aarna's technology stack is purpose-built for a single constraint: every asset that moves through the platform must satisfy both onchain composability standards and IFSCA regulatory requirements. No compromise on either.
Permissioned tokens
ERC-3643
All aarna tokenised assets are issued as ERC-3643 permissioned digital securities. The standard enforces compliance at the token level: transfers execute only between wallets holding valid identity claims. This is not a wrapper on an ERC-20 — it is a fundamentally different architecture where the compliance layer is embedded in the token contract itself.
What this means in practice: an ICT token cannot be transferred to an unverified wallet. Secondary market trading, when enabled, respects the same identity and jurisdiction rules as primary issuance. Regulatory enforcement is programmable, not procedural.
ERC-3643 Token
ONCHAINID
Claim Issuers (Sumsub)
Decentralised identity
ONCHAINID
Investor identity is managed through ONCHAINID, a decentralised identity standard integrated with ERC-3643. When an investor completes Sumsub KYC verification, identity claims are issued on-chain — accredited investor status, jurisdiction, AML clearance. These claims are portable across any ERC-3643 asset aarna issues.
One KYC process. One on-chain identity. Access to the full IYP product suite.
Price discovery
Custom quarterly NAV oracle
ICT's net asset value is certified quarterly, aligned with the reporting cadence of the underlying SEBI Cat II AIFs. A custom 3-of-5 multisig oracle updates NAV on-chain. Each update anchors the corresponding audit report hash to IPFS, creating an immutable verification trail.
This is not a Chainlink price feed. Quarterly AIF valuations do not require real-time oracle infrastructure — they require auditability and multi-party attestation.1

Agentic execution
aTARS
aarna's agentic execution engine, powering automated workflows across the platform — from subscription processing to distribution settlement to compliance monitoring.
Junct
aarna's open MCP (Model Context Protocol) registry for agentic finance. Standardised interface for AI agents to interact with financial infrastructure, positioning aarna as infrastructure for the emerging agentic finance ecosystem.
Live infrastructure
aarna's âTV vaults — âtvPTmax, âtvBTC, and âtvUSDC — are live on Ethereum mainnet, managing onchain treasury strategies. These vaults represent aarna's production track record in onchain asset management.

Roadmap
Phase 1 · Live
- Direct ICT token — ERC-3643 permissioned digital security
- Custom quarterly NAV oracle — 3-of-5 multisig, IPFS audit hash
- ONCHAINID-gated compliance layer
- Sumsub KYC + Chainalysis AML
- Fireblocks institutional custody
Phase 2
- ERC-4626 vault wrapper — standard deposit() / redeem() / totalAssets() interface for DeFi composability
- Multi-chain deployment — extending beyond Ethereum to chains with institutional adoption
- IYP product suite expansion: IBT, Sovereign, Index
Technical documentation and integration specs
View Documentation1 NAV oracle operational cost: approximately $500–1,000/year for 4 quarterly updates. Chainlink equivalent would be $7,000–30,000/year for functionality that is unnecessary at quarterly cadence.
