MPCH wants the keys. You keep the control.
A cryptographic signature can move money or govern an entire network. MPCH puts hardware, human permissions, and offline recovery around the authority to make one.
Clarisse Hagège Is Building the Boring Part of Crypto That Money Cannot Live Without
A decade inside banks taught Clarisse Hagège where financial machinery breaks. At DFNS, she is turning that institutional memory into infrastructure for money that moves onchain.
DFNS Built a Safer Set of Keys - Then Let Banks Touch Crypto
The Paris-born infrastructure company spent years making private keys harder to steal. Its bigger opportunity arrived when it learned that banks wanted control, reversibility and boring operational discipline just as much as cryptography.
Fabric Cryptography
Fabric Cryptography is a San Francisco hardware startup building the Verifiable Processing Unit (VPU) - a fully programmable custom-silicon chip with an instruction set designed specifically for advanced cryptography. Founded in 2021 by Michael Gao, Tina Ju, and Sagar Reddy, Fabric aims to do for cryptography what Nvidia did for AI: dramatically accelerate workloads like zero-knowledge proofs, fully homomorphic encryption, and multi-party computation compared with CPUs, GPUs, and fixed-function accelerators. The company has raised $39M total, including a $33M Series A in August 2024 co-led by Blockchain Capital and 1kx.
