Germany's Largest Bank Is Reportedly Leveraging Ethereum-Based Blockchain Solution To Overcome Regulatory Hurdles: Here's How
German lending behemoth, Deutsche Bank AG Inc. (NYSE:DB), was developing an Ethereum (CRYPTO: ETH) Layer-2 blockchain, according to a Wednesday report, the latest in a wave of growing interest in Web3 by traditional financial giants.
德国信贷巨头德意志银行(纽交所:DB)正在开发一个以太坊(CRYPTO:ETH)Layer-2 Blockchain, 据周三的报道,这是传统金融巨头对Web3日益增长兴趣浪潮中的最新消息。
What Happened: The solution was developed using ZKsync technology and was part of the Project Dama 2 experiment, which was unveiled in November, Bloomberg reported.
报道指出,该解决方案是使用ZKsync科技开发的,属于11月份揭晓的Project Dama 2实验的一部分。
The Layer-2 concept was an attempt to avoid the issues that regulated banks may have when working with public blockchains, such as transacting with criminals and sanctioned entities, according to bank executives quoted by Bloomberg.
据彭博社引用的银行高管表示,这一Layer-2概念旨在避免受监管的银行在与公共区块链合作时可能遇到的问题,例如与犯罪分子和受制裁实体的交易。
A rollup, or a Layer-2 scaling solution, offers the security of the Layer-1 chain and infrastructure while catering to enterprise needs for security and compliance. They allow for full customization, with only permissioned entities allowed to be as validators—participants that verify transactions.
Rollup或Layer-2扩展解决方案提供了Layer-1链和基础设施的安全性,同时满足企业对安防-半导体和合规性的需求。它们允许完全定制,仅允许经过授权的实体作为验证者参与——验证交易的参与者。
Deutsche Bank didn't immediately respond to Benzinga's request to confirm this development.

The move comes in the wake of similar initiatives by other major corporations. Earlier in August, multinational conglomerate Sony Group unveiled its Ethereum Layer-2 blockchain, Soneium. The public blockchain, developed in collaboration with Web3 infrastructure, Startale Labs, hosts a range of Web3 games, NFT marketplaces, and entertainment-related services.
