tZERO Partners with Zerohash to Enable Crypto and Stablecoin Account Funding

tZERO Group, Inc., a pioneer in blockchain and tokenization for capital markets, announced a partnership with Zerohash, a leading crypto and stablecoin infrastructure provider, to introduce a multi-asset funding rail that enables investors to fund their tZERO brokerage accounts using stablecoins and cryptocurrencies. This expanded funding method provides additional optionality for tZERO's investors and aligns with the company's vision of creating a modern, digital-first and cross-asset market structure. Stablecoin and crypto deposits provide a critical alternative to traditional transfer methods, streamlining how investors move capital into their accounts.

Through this integration slated to launch in November 2025, investors will be able to deposit stablecoins and cryptocurrencies, which Zerohash will seamlessly convert into fiat for deposit into tZERO brokerage accounts. Importantly, the broker-dealer itself does not handle cryptocurrency; deposits are received as cash. This approach maintains regulatory compliance while expanding accessibility for investors who prefer using digital assets. The partnership represents another milestone in tZERO's broader strategy to converge traditional and digital finance, reinforcing its commitment to innovation, accessibility, and regulatory integrity.

Alan Konevsky, Chief Executive Officer of tZERO, emphasized the strategic importance of this development, stating that this partnership with Zerohash is critical to creating a truly unified, multi-asset platform. He described it as a first step towards a converged and interoperable multi-asset environment that represents a major promise of blockchain technology and tZERO's vision. Expanding funding options to include crypto deposits enhances investor accessibility while reinforcing the broader convergence strategy of creating a single, digital-first global ecosystem where traditional securities, tokenized assets, and other asset classes can coexist under a regulated framework.

Alex Vlastakis, President of tZERO Securities, LLC, tZERO Group's broker-dealer, added that integrating a multi-asset funding rail strengthens the foundation of their platform by broadening how investors can engage with them. Each building block they add from custody to clearing to new funding methods moves them closer to delivering a seamless, multi-asset experience. This collaboration ensures they remain aligned with investor needs while advancing the future of capital markets. The integration represents part of tZERO's ongoing effort to democratize access to private assets by providing a simple, automated, and efficient trading venue.

Edward Woodford, Founder and CEO of Zerohash, expressed pride in supporting tZERO as it builds the next generation of capital markets. By powering seamless crypto and stablecoins into fiat, Zerohash helps enable tZERO's investors to fund accounts with digital assets in a secure and regulated way. This collaboration reflects their shared commitment to bridging traditional finance and the digital asset ecosystem through reliable, compliant infrastructure. Zerohash is a regulated financial infrastructure provider that enables the seamless integration of stablecoins and crypto, supporting approximately 100 digital assets while handling the underlying complexity of conversion and settlement.

The significance of this partnership extends beyond immediate funding convenience, representing a fundamental shift in how traditional financial institutions are embracing digital assets. By creating infrastructure that allows crypto and stablecoin holders to participate in traditional capital markets without the friction of converting to fiat through external exchanges, tZERO and Zerohash are breaking down barriers between traditional and digital finance. This development comes at a time when institutional adoption of digital assets is accelerating, and the demand for regulated, compliant access points is growing substantially across global financial markets.
