The UAE Dirham is now live on ADI Chain. Initiated by @ihc__official and First Abu Dhabi Bank (@FABConnects), approved and licensed by @centralbankuae, the DDSC stablecoin is backed 1:1 by UAE Dirham reserves. DDSC is hosted exclusively on ADI Chain’s compliance-ready blockchain infrastructure. What sets this launch apart is the ecosystem behind it: • International Holding Company, one of the largest investment companies in the world, enables regional distribution across 1,300+ subsidiaries • First Abu Dhabi Bank acts as the banking partner, supporting custody of fiat reserves across 20 markets • Sirius International Holding is supporting deployment and institutional adoption • DDSC manages regulated issuance and distribution • ADI Chain delivers the programmable, 24/7 settlement infrastructure Together, we establish a new benchmark for sovereign digital finance. DDSC is built for high-value use cases – enabling payments, treasury management, and cross-border trade flows within a trusted environment. It validates our broader model. This is the first step toward a network of sovereign stablecoins operating on a shared layer. It creates a plug-and-play framework for national digital currencies to achieve interoperability at scale. It is why giants like @Mastercard and @MPESAAfrica have partnered with the @ADI_Foundation, and why @BlackRock and @FTI_Global are exploring tokenized asset structures on our network. They recognize the need for onchain rails designed for institutional scale. DDSC stablecoin operates on ADI Chain’s infrastructure, where $ADI functions as the utility token powering onchain transactions. The rails for digital money are officially open.

Why this matters 👇 • DDSC is a digital version of the UAE dirham, launched by International Holding Company and First Abu Dhabi Bank, and approved by the Central Bank of the UAE. • Every token is backed 1:1 by real dirhams held in custody at FAB. • It settles on @ADIChain_ , meaning transfers can move on a single blockchain layer instead of through multiple banks. • Built for businesses, consumers, and remittances, with potential distribution across IHC’s 1,300+ subsidiaries.
