The deal positions XDC as an institutional gateway for tokenized trade finance and real‑world asset settlement, with co‑founder Atul Khekade calling the move “the most powerful institutional gateway for tokenized trade‑finance and cross‑border settlement.”

XDC Ventures will fund Contour’s geographic expansion, launch a “Stable‑Coin Lab” to pilot regulated stable‑coin issuance and API‑based LC settlement, and integrate Circle USDC on XDC to enable faster, lower‑cost cross‑border settlements while pursuing pilots with banks, regulators and corporates across the U.S., EU, GCC and Asia. Immediate priorities include the lab setup, API rollouts, and Corda workflow integration, with strategic investors invited for compliance and trade‑network expertise.
