In a thriving blockchain ecosystem, clarity and synergy are paramount. Our multi-entity design ensures that each organization contributes unique expertise while remaining laser-focused on strengthening the public blockchain.
This approach—where independent companies collaborate under the governance of Partisia Blockchain Foundation (PBF)—is a proven model seen in other blockchain ecosystems, such as Cardano’s relationship with the Cardano Foundation, IOHK, and EMURGO.
By upholding financial independence, robust governance, and a shared commitment to the success of PBF, we guarantee that every initiative ultimately serves the Partisia Blockchain community—driving adoption, innovation, and long-term success for the public network.
To provide a clear understanding of how these entities work together, here is a high-level breakdown of their roles:
Each of these companies operates independently but plays a distinct role in strengthening the public blockchain ecosystem under the governance of PBF. Below, we provide a more comprehensive overview of their contributions and governance structures.
At the core of the ecosystem is the Partisia Blockchain Foundation (PBF), a Swiss non-profit entity responsible for governing the public blockchain’s development, adoption strategy, and ecosystem growth. The foundation is the guardian of the public blockchain, ensuring that it remains open-source, transparent, and accessible for developers, enterprises, and the broader web3 community.
PBF was established in 2020, following an extensive regulatory process to ensure compliance with Swiss financial authorities and alignment with utility token regulations. This regulatory foundation remains a key pillar of the project’s long-term legitimacy and governance.
PBF follows a strict governance model, supervised by the Swiss ESA and is subject to rigorous audits and financial oversight. It operates under a locked-purpose structure, meaning its funds can only be used to develop, promote, and bring the public Partisia Blockchain to market.
The development of Partisia Blockchain dates to March 2017, when the first lines of code were written by Partisia Infrastructure (PI). PI played a critical role in shaping both the technical architecture and regulatory framework, ensuring compliance with Swiss utility token regulations. The early development efforts culminated in Version 1.7, which was acquired and open-sourced by PBF in October 2020, leading to the public release of Version 2 in January 2021.
The Foundation plays a crucial role in strategic planning, ensuring that the blockchain evolves in line with its mission. The original roadmap was set out in the whitepaper, with a yearly roadmap review that is subject to quarterly replanning. The latest iteration was a 6-month roadmap, completed in January 2025.
Although independent companies like PI and GN Solutions (GN or GODS Network), contribute to blockchain development, PBF remains the governing entity, ensuring that public blockchain progress remains transparent, decentralized, and independent from private interests. As governance continues to evolve, efforts are underway to explore more community-driven governance models.
While PBF remains the central governing entity of the public blockchain, several independent companies contribute technical expertise, adoption strategies, and infrastructure. Below, we outline their roles and how they align with PBF’s mission.
Partisia Infrastructure (PI) is an independent Danish company specializing in blockchain solutions, encryption, and privacy-preserving cryptography. However, its role in the ecosystem goes beyond enterprise applications—it has been a driving force behind the technical foundation of the public blockchain since its inception.
Partisia Infrastructure (PI) is the dedicated core developer team and technological brain trust behind the public blockchain. With over a decade of expertise in advanced cryptography, multi-party computation (MPC), and blockchain technologies, PI played a pivotal role in shaping the public blockchain’s whitepaper, regulatory framework, and token classification. As part of a larger group of independent Partisia companies that existed long before the blockchain’s launch, PI operates independently, generating its own revenue through private-sector contracts and projects ranging from quantum computing security to MPC-based key management (via Sepior, now a Blockdaemon company).
PI was responsible for building the core mainnet protocol, leveraging its deep cryptographic expertise to ensure a secure, scalable foundation for the blockchain. This work was delivered at a heavily discounted rate, underscoring PI’s commitment to the success of the public blockchain.
Since then, PI has remained the core development company behind the public blockchain, responsible for:
Beyond development, PI also plays a key role in enterprise adoption, acting as a go-to-market (GTM) partner for businesses transitioning to web3. By working with enterprises on private blockchain solutions, PI is often able to guide them toward the public blockchain, increasing on-chain activity and adoption.
Despite its involvement in development and enterprise solutions, PI operates independently from PBF, with strict governance ensuring that no public blockchain funds are used for private enterprise projects.
GODS Network is a Swiss-based entity established by Partisia Group—the same company that owns Partisia Infrastructure. It was created to solve a major challenge in web3: fragmentation across blockchain ecosystems.
By acting as an interoperability layer built directly on Partisia’s public blockchain, GODS Network connects disparate blockchains into a unified, seamless infrastructure, allowing data and transactions to flow across networks effortlessly.
At its core, GODS Network functions as a decentralized data subscription layer, enabling any smart contract on any blockchain to publish and subscribe to data across chains. This removes the silos between EVM and non-EVM blockchains, making decentralized applications more accessible and functional. The integration also enables Partisia’s public blockchain to provide privacy-preserving computation as a commodity across multiple chains, offering a unique value proposition in the web3 ecosystem.
While GODS Network is built by Partisia Infrastructure, it operates as a completely independent entity. It receives no funding or grants from Partisia Blockchain Foundation (PBF), ensuring a clear financial separation between GODS Network and the foundation. However, there is close collaboration between GN and PBF on business development, ensuring that GODS Network’s innovations directly drive adoption for the public blockchain.
One of the most significant benefits of GODS Network is that any use of its interoperability features will generate on-chain transactions on Partisia Blockchain. This means that while GODS Network operates independently, its success directly contributes to network activity and revenue generation for Partisia Blockchain node operators. By bridging blockchains and enabling seamless cross-chain transactions, GODS Network is positioned to be a key driver of Partisia Blockchain’s adoption in the broader web3 space.
PBC Apps is a Cayman Islands-based company founded by Brian Gallagher, a former co-founder and previous member of the Foundation Council. As part of the natural evolution of the ecosystem, Brian stepped away from day-to-day involvement with the foundation, shifting his focus to external adoption initiatives outside of PBF.
Originally, PBC Apps played a key role in driving early web3 adoption on Partisia Blockchain, leveraging its expertise to support ecosystem growth and infrastructure development.
The company was engaged in an arm’s length development agreement to build and maintain core ecosystem tools, including the initial explorer and Parti Wallet, which was—until recently—the only available wallet in the Partisia ecosystem.
Over time, the blockchain has expanded beyond a single provider, introducing new wallet solutions and enabling broader developer participation.
Today, PBC Apps operates entirely independently from the foundation and receives no further payments from PBF, originally required to build core infrastructure like wallets. It functions as a third-party service provider, just like any other independent vendor in the ecosystem, with no exclusivity or preferential treatment. This transition reflects the maturity of the public blockchain ecosystem, moving towards a more decentralized and competitive infrastructure landscape.
Ensuring strong governance and alignment between all companies in the ecosystem is a key priority for the Partisia Blockchain Foundation (PBF). The focus is not just on legal compliance, but on ensuring that every entity involved operates in a way that benefits the public blockchain and serves the long-term vision of the ecosystem.
From the very beginning, PBF was designed with a governance structure that prioritizes independence and accountability. Before the foundation was formally established, the co-founders worked extensively with Swiss regulators to ensure that the blockchain’s design met Utility token regulatory standards. This regulatory groundwork—combined with the development of the initial network version and the publication of the whitepaper—laid the foundation for how PBF would be structured.
To ensure that development efforts remained aligned with the public blockchain’s success, arms-length agreements were put in place with both Partisia Infrastructure and PBC Apps. These agreements were carefully structured and reviewed by an independent third party, ensuring that any services provided by external entities adhered to market standards and fair governance principles.
As PBF continues to evolve, governance remains an area of active development and refinement. The foundation operates under strict Swiss ESA supervision, undergoing annual audits that have consistently resulted in high compliance rankings with no critical issues. However, beyond regulatory adherence, the real measure of good governance is whether the relationships between entities in the ecosystem ultimately benefit the public blockchain and its stakeholders.
Instead of forcing a premature shift toward decentralized governance, the focus will remain on ensuring that the right governance mechanisms are in place to support the blockchain’s long-term success. As part of this commitment, the foundation’s council is actively exploring options to move toward a more community-centric governance model, including community representation on the council and a DAO model. These avenues would ensure that the public blockchain’s governance becomes more decentralized, balanced, and inclusive, with stronger representation from the community.
While the governance structure will continue to evolve over time, these options aim to strengthen transparency, accountability, and community involvement in decision-making. Should a clear route, requirement, and environment for these ideas arise in the future, it will be driven by community demand rather than imposed as a governance model for its own sake.
Governance improvements will be introduced gradually, ensuring that shifts toward decentralization are well-planned and beneficial to the network.
The Partisia Blockchain Foundation (PBF) is committed to building a sustainable, high-impact public blockchain. The separation of roles and responsibilities allows each organization to focus on its core strengths, ensuring that PBF remains dedicated to governance, adoption, and ecosystem growth while benefiting from technical expertise, interoperability advancements, and infrastructure contributions from aligned entities.
The public blockchain remains at the centre of this ecosystem, and PBF continues to explore opportunities to evolve its governance model to increase community involvement.
Partisia Blockchain is entering a new phase of growth, accountability, and execution, and we are excited to move forward together with the community toward a stronger, more decentralized future.

Guest blog from Anton Glotser, CEO of DelNorte
DelNorte is digitizing, tokenizing and monetizing bureaucratic processes. In governments and corporations bureaucracy is often time consuming, cumbersome and in the worst cases prone to corruption. Many governments and some corporations are still using the millenia-old method of pen and paper for bureaucratic processes. Our partnership with Partisia will help us modernize that process.
DelNorte solves the problem of security, transparency, frequency, efficiency, scalability, fidelity and friction. By converting physical documents to digital and storing them on the blockchain we solve about 95% of the problems associated with traditional paperwork. Not only does this greatly improve quality and security of the data, but our solution provides an unfathomable amount of ancillary benefits. Having guaranteed and secure real time data associated with physical assets, such as real estate deeds on the blockchain, makes the assets represented by these smart tokens significantly more valuable.
Working with Partisia Blockchain offers several notable benefits both for us and our clients. Partisia Blockchain utilizes cutting-edge cryptographic techniques like secure multiparty computation (MPC) to ensure that sensitive data remains confidential even while being processed on the blockchain. It addresses scalability challenges by enabling efficient computation and data processing. As we occasionally get requests for a variety of blockchains, Partisia accommodates us with their interoperability across blockchains and systems. Also dealing with governments security is a top priority for us. Partisia utilizes advanced cryptographic techniques to protect data and transactions. The last important point is our ability with Partisia to mold a variety of regulations and customization to specific use cases and business requirements.
We have contracts for pilot projects in El Salvador, Mexico and Honduras. Our most advanced and tested project is in El Salvador. There we have live transactions and are now expanding to other services like digital signatures stored on chain, and a national expansion for tokenized deeds and titles.
We also have a product called Kasas.io, it is a real estate search engine and marketplace that allows anyone to buy, sell, rent or invest in whole property or fractions of real estate remotely and completely legally in all of Latin America. In the places where we have a direct link to the government we can even perform 100% digital remote real estate transactions for purchase or sale, with digital NFT deeds and titles issued virtually on chain and recognized by the government as official. You can hop on a plane and buy a house mid-flight, and by the time you land in that country (El Salvador at the moment), you will already own the house.
DelNorte stock is registered and we are currently raising US$2 million for 20% of the company to fuel our national and international growth. We are in the process of expanding to about a dozen countries in Latin America but also into parts of the USA. We are expanding our tech stack and our private sector operations for automated real estate transactions.

Guest blog from Moojan Asghari, Thousand Faces Co-founder and CEO
Thousand Faces is a reward-based crowdfunding platform powered by Partisia Blockchain. It aims to address funding gaps and support impact-driven female founders. With only 1.9% of venture capital funding allocated to all-female founding teams, there is a huge gender gap in funding.
While women currently make just 30% of climate-related decisions, they have proven to excel in building sustainable businesses, resulting in organizations led by women being 2.5 times more profitable. Recognizing the significance of funding more women and providing them with leadership opportunities, Thousand Faces seeks to democratize funding for women and minorities by offering both financial resources and a powerful network.
Driven by the frustration of limited funding and support for underrepresented groups, we embarked on a mission to leverage the principles of Web3, namely transparency, ownership, and decentralization, to serve both people and the planet. The lack of inclusivity in investment decisions, particularly regarding women and minority-led ventures, poses a significant challenge. Research shows that unconscious bias often leads investors to favor individuals who resemble themselves, perpetuating the underfunding of women and minorities. To address this issue, Thousand Faces turned to the powerful capabilities of Partisia Blockchain.
Partisia Blockchain introduces an innovative approach to tackle this problem through its zero-knowledge and voting mechanisms. Leveraging the secure content and zero-knowledge voting developed by Partisia Blockchain, Thousand Faces is building a decentralized autonomous organization (DAO). This empowers the creation of an inclusive and transparent voting system that ensures the active participation of a diverse community.
The voting system operates at two levels. Firstly, a diverse jury panel plays a crucial role in the initial voting stage, utilizing the zero-knowledge bootstrapping of Partisia Blockchain to ensure process security. Additionally, a committee-based second level of voting includes the entire community, consisting of token holders and NFT members. This approach guarantees that community members, who act as funders and supporters, have a voice in selecting projects and monitoring their progress.
Thousand Faces has already launched its first membership and NFT collection, available on the website for interested individuals to explore and apply for private sales. You can apply to join the Thousand Faces membership on the allowlist here. The platform has also established a dedicated member’s board and successfully completed its inaugural acceleration program for female founders. We received over 200 applications from nearly 80 countries, aligning with diverse UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). From Kenya, Nigeria, Germany, Lebanon, Singapore, and the UK, six outstanding projects reached the final round. At the awards ceremony in April, the top three were granted US$30,000, with support from sponsors including Sandbox and the World of Women Foundation.
To stay updated on our latest developments and join us on our exciting journey, follow us on Twitter or visit our website. We’re excited to be part of the Partisia Blockchain ecosystem and are fully committed to transforming the inclusivity in the web3 space and beyond.
