The team at Balancer Grants DAO is proud to announce the approval of the grant application by Verified Network to enable CeFi securities on Balancer V2.

Verified Network is a blockchain powered network of regulated financial service providers such as registrars and transfer agents, custodians and brokerages across multiple countries thereby making it possible to bring CeFi security issuances onto DeFi liquidity pools. The scope of the grant includes building a custom Balancer pool, open sourcing all of pool code and launching it on mainnet!

With Wave 2 of our grants starting, it is cool to see yet another type of custom Balancer pool being built, truly showcasing the modularity of Balancer as a Money Lego. Verified Network will bring another building block into the Balancer Ecosystem! — Zeb, Grant Lead

We are very excited to build on the Balancer protocol to enable access to Decentralized Finance (Defi) for traditional, regulated financial services intermediaries and investors. Verified is committed to transforming the financial industry and realizing the potential of blockchains to help create a world where people have more control, freedom and direct access to capital markets. — Peter Keller, Business head
