In a major move, the ICP dFinity Foundation is rumored to be working with Sygnum Bank, a Switzerland-based private bank, but what could this mean for Internet Computer & ICP Crypto?
An investigation into dFinity’s early announcement of a collaboration with an unnamed Swiss-based private bank suggests that the financial institution in question could be Sygnum Bank.
In a post on X, one analyst dug deeper into the original March 8 announcement, reading into the details, and discovered that Sygnum Bank could be the entity behind ICP dFinity Foundation’s DocuTrack.
dFinity, the development team behind the Internet Computer Protocol (ICP), unveiled a decentralized document-sharing application, DocuTrack, the same day on March 8. The tool, the blockchain developer noted, was done in close partnership with an unnamed but well-established Swiss private bank.
Here’s Why Sygnum Bank Might Be ICP dFinity Foundation’s New Partner
The investigation places Sygnum Bank as a strong candidate for several reasons, firstly, the private bank operates 64 ICP crypto nodes and recently showcased its familiarity with concepts like chain key cryptography and smart wallets in recent presentations.
Additionally, their ISO20022 compliance through IC4Java suggests a potential future adoption of ICP technology, indeed, IC4Java already comprises Java open-source libraries that provide solutions for Java developers to interact with the Internet Computer network (ICP).
In the March 8 announcement, dFinity said DocuTrack aims to change how enterprises share documents – it is also open-source, private, and runs on the ICP blockchain.
The tool relies on core dFinity solutions like Chain Key for infinite scalability. At the same time, DocuTrack pays for the resources it consumes, unlike other protocols running on Ethereum, for instance, where users have to pay transaction fees.

This collaboration is a positive step for ICP crypto and dFinity, marking the first step for financial institutions to adopt blockchain technology via the network.
Increasingly, players in traditional finance are turning to the blockchain – with efforts mainstreamed last week by BlackRock, one of the world’s largest asset managers, after the firm released a tokenized fund on Ethereum.
The BlackRock USD Institutional Digital Liquidity Fund (BUIDL) is a tokenized fund with stablecoin-like features, investing exclusively in cash and United States treasury bills.
