Compliant Access toOpen Blockchain Markets
Fairway enables institutions to trade, lend, and unlock yield across open blockchain networks – securely and in line with regulations.
Privacy-First Compliance
GDPR/eIDAS2 compatible ZK-proofs with selective disclosure
Multi-Chain Ready
Works across Bitcoin, Ethereum, and other open blockchain networks
Identity as Smart Contract Logic
YES/NO compliance checks for DeFi protocols
Built for Institutions
Enterprise security, regulatory alignment, and audited code
Why Institutions Stay Out of DeFi
Four critical gaps keep institutional capital on the sidelines
No Trusted Identity
Anonymous pools are a non-starter for institutional capital
Unknown Counterparties
Who are you trading with? Institutions need to know.
Regulatory Risk
Unclear compliance leads to massive liability exposure
Yield Out of Reach
Institutions can’t access DeFi yields without compliance
Fairway bridges these gaps, Enabling institutions to safely participate in open blockchain markets.
How Fairway Brings Identity to Bitcoin DeFi
A streamlined process that transforms compliance into programmable smart contract logic
Define
Institutions set the access requirements (KYC level, jurisdiction, AML/sanctions, accreditation)
Prove
Users complete the KYC process and generate a reusable ZK-proof that meets those requirements
Access
Smart contracts enforce the rules: proofs grant or revoke permission across DeFi protocols

Enable Institutional Access for Your DeFi Protocol
Integrate Fairway's decentralized compliance layer into your smart contracts. Serve institutional capital without sacrificing decentralization.
DeFi builders face the same challenge as institutions: compliance. Without verified identity and programmable rules, regulated capital cannot participate in your pools. Fairway solves this with a compliance layer that plugs directly into your smart contracts — so institutions get the trust they need, and your protocol gets new liquidity.
Plug & Play SDKs
APIs, templates, and ZK-proof libraries for Cardano, EVM, and Bitcoin-based DeFi.
Programmable Compliance
Define rules like accredited investor, jurisdiction, or sanctions list as smart contract logic.
Unlock Institutional Liquidity
Attract hedge funds, pension funds, and corporates by proving compliance natively on-chain.

Privacy-Preserving Verification
Generate cryptographic proofs that verify compliance without revealing sensitive data.
- Zero-knowledge proof generation for identity verification
- GDPR-compliant data processing with selective disclosure
- Reusable proofs across multiple DeFi protocols
- Institutional-grade security with mathematical guarantees
// Generate ZK-proof for compliance verification
const proof = await fairway.generateProof({
identity: userIdentity,
requirements: ['accredited_investor', 'kyc_verified'],
selective: ['jurisdiction', 'investment_limit']
});
// Verify proof without exposing raw data
const isValid = await fairway.verifyProof(proof);Build the Next Wave of Institutional Bitcoin DeFi
