Technology, the founder, the money, and why an encrypted L1 is the point, not a side quest.
Every salary, rent payment, and credit line on a public ledger is sitting on an explorer. That is fine for trading. It is a dealbreaker for real finance.
Banks, lenders, and payroll cannot ship on glass. Forced transparency is the bottleneck, not throughput.
Privacy lives in the protocol, not in a wallet plugin. Transactions are private by default: transfers, loans, cash accounts, payroll.
The line they actually use: “Encrypt all chains.”
Nodes run inside Intel TDX, a Trusted Execution Environment. Code and data in the enclave cannot be read by the host or the operator.
Developers write Solidity with shielded types: suint, sbool, saddress. Calldata is encrypted from the client to the enclave. Plaintext never hits the mempool or the explorer.
Blocks in under a second. One block finality. Custom consensus called Summit. You keep the Ethereum mental model; the chain hides the sensitive bits.
ZK proves a computation was correct. It struggles when many apps need to compute over shared private state: payroll, credit, and cash accounts.
Seismic’s wager: secure hardware first, so composability does not die for privacy. TEE is a tradeoff, not a magic trick. Name it and move.
Stanford CS and math. a16z met him through Dan Boneh, who called him one of the brightest undergraduates he had ever taught.
Grew up in the Philippines, then Los Angeles. First company. No official cofounder. Early days were him and a whiteboard. The engineering bench now draws from Wintermute, Google X, and Apple R&D.
March 2025: $7M seed, led by a16z crypto. November 2025: $10M, a16z led again. Eight months, two rounds, same lead.
Also in the cap table: Polychain, 1kx, dao5, Amber Group, TrueBridge, LayerZero, Alliance.
No token has been announced. Do not invent one. The stated path is infrastructure fees for fintechs, not extraction from a ticker.
Brookwell: cash accounts, stablecoins and fiat, yield. First app officially built on Seismic (September 2025).
Cred Protocol: private credit scoring. Reah: fiat and stablecoin treasury for Southeast Asian SMBs. Avvio: named multi-currency accounts for global earners.
The pattern: companies that cannot leak customer data.
Mainnet volume that is not demo traffic. More licensed fintechs, not more prototype toys. TEE attestation that still holds as the validator set grows.
If those three land, “encrypted L1 for finance” stops being a thread and starts being rails.
Seismic Community is the people layer: original PFPs, member cards, and request art. Curated here, not minted for a faucet.
If you are here for the chain, stay for the faces.
Projects confirmed to be partnered with or built on Seismic, the encrypted L1 blockchain.
The first app officially built on Seismic, launched September 2025. A modern cash account that lets you move between stablecoins and fiat, pay rent and bills directly, and earn DeFi yield, all powered by Seismic's private rails.
Seismic's second confirmed fintech partner. Provides on-chain credit scoring, reporting and monitoring, giving lenders real risk data while keeping the underlying activity off the public chain.
Confirmed directly by Seismic's own team. A treasury-as-a-service platform for fintechs, using Seismic to power private multi-currency accounts, money market instruments and local pay-in rails.
Confirmed directly by Seismic's own team. Powers cross-border payments between the US and India, moving money over Seismic's private rails instead of a public chain.
Confirmed directly by Seismic's own team. A neobank for digital nomads in Southeast Asia who hold visas ineligible for local bank accounts, letting them top up from their home bank and spend anywhere that accepts QR codes.
Confirmed directly by Seismic's own team. One platform for fiat and stablecoin treasuries, global cards and local payout rails, built for SMBs in Southeast Asia moving money across borders.
Originally confirmed and built on Seismic: a trading-first neobank bringing the simplicity of apps like Coinbase or Venmo to DeFi. As of July 2026 Sedona is migrating away from Seismic to Arbitrum, adopting Fhenix's FHE encryption instead of Seismic's TEE model.
Confirmed directly by Seismic's own team. A single account for global trade businesses, led by repeat founder and ex-Morgan Stanley Frankie DiGiacomo, replacing the multiple bank accounts importers/exporters usually juggle with one private trade finance account.
Confirmed directly by Seismic's own team, with an official joint "VIA | Seismic" graphic. A stablecoin-first global account for internet-native businesses, using Seismic to power private multi-currency accounts, cross-border payments and flexible credit lines.
First startup named in Seismic's Builders Program (March 2026). Credit infrastructure for the machine economy: turns machine activity and revenue into structured operating records for underwriting, monitoring and financing.
No unverified leads on the board right now. New community tips land here until Seismic confirms them.
Participate in a global, encrypted pay-it-forward chain. Gamified giving with prize pools, built as an open-source Seismic demo.
An experimental AMM that hides price data and turns encrypted price movement into music. The team calls it "listen to a bonding curve."
Earn encrypted revenue share in your favorite restaurant. Loyal customers get a cut of on-chain revenue without exposing the figures publicly.
Stabilize your DePIN service. Trade or hedge based on belief rather than exposed price data, another open-source Seismic prototype.
FOLIO, RIFF, NIBBLE, LEVEL and DWELL are open-source demo apps from Seismic's own team, sharing Seismic's official X and GitHub instead of having their own.
"Unverified" projects have only turned up in community sources so far. Treat them as leads, not confirmed partners.
