New York, United States, April 22, 2026 -- The Aggregation Foundation, a global nonprofit organization dedicated to promoting the development of an open digital ecosystem, today announced that it will focus its strategic investments and research on privacy-preserving payments and real-world assets (RWAs) to support the development of secure, scalable, and composable financial infrastructure within the Web3 ecosystem.

The foundation believes that privacy payments and RWA are core components of the future development of the digital economy and are crucial to the security, efficiency, and accessibility of the global digital financial system.

Strategic investment direction

1. Privacy-preserving payments

The Aggregation Foundation will support research and infrastructure development for privacy payments, including technologies such as zero-knowledge proofs (ZK), homomorphic encryption, hybrid protocols, and verifiable payment networks. Key focus areas:

• Personal privacy protectionTo ensure that user payment information and transaction data are secure, verifiable, and cannot be leaked in a blockchain environment.
• Decentralized complianceBalancing privacy protection and regulatory requirements, providing technically feasible solutions for a compliant financial environment.
• Multi-chain payment interoperabilityTo promote cross-chain payment solutions and enhance the accessibility and seamless value flow capabilities of the global digital economy.

The foundation will fund and support promising development teams, open-source licenses, and industry research to accelerate the maturation and application of privacy payment technologies.

2. Real-world assets (RWA)

In the broader trend of integrating digital assets with traditional finance, RWA serves as a bridge connecting the on-chain and off-chain economies. The foundation focuses on the following areas:

• Asset tokenizationIt supports the secure tokenization of traditional assets such as government bonds, commercial paper, real estate equity, commodities, and private equity funds.
