"Less than 1% of global assets are onchain."


The other 99% is still sitting in traditional finance, waiting for infrastructure that can actually handle it.
That's what @alignedlayer is building for.
1️⃣ What is Aligned?
Aligned is a one-click stack that helps fintechs, institutions, and enterprises build financial products on Ethereum.
It brings the infrastructure businesses need to build on Ethereum together through one integration.
Basically, teams can use it to launch products like neobanks, stablecoin payment rails, and digital identity systems.
2️⃣ The problem it solves
Companies usually cannot build an Ethereum-based product using just one tool.
A fintech might need several different providers just to handle the infrastructure behind one product.
That means more integrations, higher costs, and more time spent managing different providers.
So instead of stitching all of that infrastructure together themselves, a team can use Aligned as the backend and focus more on building the actual product.
To me, it sounds like a good quality-of-life solution, in a space where things can get hectic fast.
3️⃣ How the stack works
The cool part is that Aligned handles most of the boring backend stuff while making the app feel like something you’re already used to using, like PayPal or Revolut.
You log in using Google or Face ID, and an Ethereum wallet is created for you in the background.
That is what Wallet-as-a-Service is designed for. Users get a real Ethereum wallet without needing seed phrases or browser extensions. They don't even need to hold ETH in their wallet because it supports gas sponsorship.
Aligned is also building Rollup-as-a-Service, which will let businesses run their product on a dedicated rollup with its own rules and infrastructure.
I love how they’re making this work like a normal fintech app without reminding you that you’re using crypto in the first place.
4️⃣ What is already live?
Aligned’s Proof Aggregation Service has been live in mainnet alpha since January 2026.
Instead of verifying every ZK proof separately on Ethereum, it combines multiple proofs into batches, which helps keep verification costs lower as activity grows.
So while some of Aligned’s other products are still being built, this part of the stack is already live and working.
I’ll def send another update when the rest goes live.
5️⃣ TGE
$ALIGN is the native token of the Aligned ecosystem.
It is an ERC-20 token on Ethereum with a fixed supply of 10B tokens and an initial circulating supply of approximately 16%.
You can check your airdrop eligibility here:
Also, make sure to follow @alignedlayer for official updates on the TGE and to see what other products they have in the pipeline.
