Settlement corridors

A corridor is a currency pair that dCLS settles. The parties agree the rate themselves, the fiat stays in its own country, and both legs of the deal clear at the same time.

RUB_T <-> AED_T

Re-export via the UAE

The UAE is a major re-export hub and the dirham is pegged to the dollar. A resident fund in the UAE issues the settlement token, the fiat never leaves the country, and offsetting import and re-export flows provide netting material.

RUB_T <-> CNY_T

Import and export with China

Settlement runs through offshore CNH yuan (Hong Kong). Direct minting in mainland China is not offered. The corridor covers offsetting import and export flows between Russia and China.

RUB_T <-> TRY_T

Grain, commodities, agri-export

Grain, raw materials and agricultural exports form a steady offsetting flow. Türkiye acts as the counterparty that balances positions on commodity and food contracts.

RUB_T <-> BYN_T

Settlement within the EAEU

An intra-EAEU corridor with a short leg and a stable offsetting flow. Suited to regular settlements between union residents without routing through third currencies.

The currency set extends beyond the launch corridors

The corridors above are the focus at launch. 40+ jurisdictional currencies are available to issue: each is minted by its own country's fund as a FiatToken with 1:1 backing. A new corridor opens by agreement between the parties, with no contract changes.

The full currency set is available to issue under the jurisdictional-fund model; the corridors above are the launch focus. The current status is a reference deployment on the Ethereum testnet (Sepolia); rollout to mainnet is phased, as each corridor clears its legal and compliance perimeter. Specific currencies and launch timelines are agreed during KYB onboarding. The legal qualification of a FiatToken depends on the fund's jurisdiction and is not legal advice.

Why several corridors at once

Multi-currency netting only works when there are offsetting counterparties. The more active corridors, the fewer actual transfers are needed to close positions.
