Trusted Smart Chain Appoints Brant Frank To Lead Financial-Grade, Compliance-Ready Blockchain Infrastructure

Trusted Smart Chain today announced that Brant Frank has joined the organization in a senior technical leadership role, where he will focus on enterprise infrastructure, protocol security, and the development of financial-grade, compliance-ready production environments for tokenized securities and real-world assets.

Frank brings more than 25 years of software engineering and technical consulting experience, including over a decade building blockchain infrastructure for financial-grade, compliance-ready production environments. His background spans the design and execution of large-scale distributed systems, secure architecture for financial use cases, and the operational realities of running production blockchain environments that support real capital and real assets.

“Tokenization is moving decisively into production markets,” said Ivan Kan, CMO at Trusted Smart Chain. “Brant’s experience building financial-grade, compliance-ready production environments gives Trusted Smart Chain the architectural discipline required to support institutional adoption at scale. This is about building infrastructure that financial markets can rely on for the long term.”

Frank has been a core engineering and architectural contributor behind some of the earliest and most influential blockchain-first companies, including Connect, Elevate, and Gala Games. Across these ecosystems, he played a foundational role in shaping early blockchain architectures, production systems, and technical frameworks that helped move the industry from experimentation toward real-world deployment. This experience operating at the earliest stages of large blockchain networks has informed his pragmatic, infrastructure-first approach to system design.

At Trusted Smart Chain, Frank will lead efforts across protocol architecture, infrastructure security, and enterprise system design to ensure the network can support regulated tokenized assets, complex financial instruments, and real-world asset issuance in production environments. His focus will center on building resilient, secure, and scalable systems that meet the expectations of institutions, asset issuers, and regulated platforms.

Trusted Smart Chain was designed from inception to support financial-grade, compliance-ready production environments rather than consumer-first or speculative crypto use cases. The network is purpose-built for enterprises and financial participants seeking blockchain infrastructure that aligns with regulatory realities and institutional standards.

“If blockchain is going to support real assets and real financial instruments, the infrastructure must be financial-grade and compliance-ready from day one,” said Frank. “Trusted Smart Chain is building the architecture that regulated markets require, that is why I joined.  I am excited to lead a strong foundation and build more on an amazing platform.”

Frank’s appointment comes as Trusted Smart Chain continues to gain traction among asset originators and enterprises exploring blockchain as foundational infrastructure for modern capital markets. His leadership strengthens the network’s ability to support secure onboarding, institutional participation, and long-term production use as tokenization moves from concept to core financial infrastructure.
