We closed out UN Week with a warm evening in New York, cohosted with @MoCTI_SL last Friday.
Our founder @realyanxin joined Chief Minister @dsengeh, Minister @SalimaMBah, Ambassador Dr. Abu Bakarr Karim, @ChristexFndn founder @c_ogoo, and many friends to reflect on our journey together and share what comes next.
We and Sierra Leone are thinking much bigger.

Stablecoins already move value globally. The next step is bringing local currencies onto rails people already use.
That means settlement, wallets, liquidity, exchanges and payments all working together.
@Sign’s sovereign stablecoin framework shows how public networks like BNB Chain can provide that distribution layer while governments keep control of the currency.

Why are governments talking about sovereign stablecoins now?
Three signals are converging:
→ Cross-border payments are still expensive
→ Dollar stablecoins move globally, but local currency access remains fragmented
→ Digital reach is growing faster than banking access
@Sign’s sovereign stablecoin framework breaks down what’s driving the shift.

A sovereign stablecoin is only useful if people and institutions can actually hold, move and use it.
At @EASYResidency, @nina_rong shared how public networks like BNB Chain can provide settlement and distribution, while governments and regulated institutions keep control over issuance, reserves and supervision.
Every Fiat Becomes a Stablecoin.
USD, EUR, SOM, BRL... The multi currency onchain economy is coming.
Together with @BNBCHAIN, we are publishing A Sovereign Stablecoin Framework, built from our work with governments.

KGST, the national stablecoin in Kyrgyzstan, takes this approach from theory to a working system.
Public authorities set the rules. Local financial institutions hold the reserves and handle fiat. Sign provides the infrastructure that connects the parts. BNB Chain provides the public settlement layer.
It is not a blueprint for every country, but a working model for countries considering their own sovereign stablecoin.
At Sign, we believe digital assets, identity, and sovereign digital infrastructure should be built on transparent and interoperable foundations.
We look forward to helping advance the next generation of digital trust infrastructure.

In Sierra Leone right now testing Sky bank’s current ID integration with National Civil Registration Authority.
We are going to build a decentralized verifiable credential system together with NCRA for more secure, expanded and faster ID verification across institutions.

Following consensus from Sign Foundation and the majority of our backers, we are updating the $SIGN token unlock schedule.
The first three unlocks remain unchanged: 1/24 monthly through July 2026.
After that, unlocks will move into spaced tranches:
• Jan 15, 2027: 1/4
• Jul 15, 2027: 1/4
• Jan 15, 2028: 1/4
• Apr 15, 2028: final 1/8
The revised schedule is being synced to CoinMarketCap
coinmarketcap.com/currencies…
All investor and early contributor tokens remain fully unlocked by April 15, 2028. This is a timing restructure, not an extension. There is no preferential acceleration.
The purpose is to reduce continuous monthly overhang and turn unlocks into managed liquidity events aligned with stronger business and market windows.
We are also launching Forward Claim, a dedicated venue for locked tokens, allowing eligible holders to rebalance through an OTC-style forward market without impacting spot liquidity.
More details will follow.
5/ This is a soft launch.
The market is thin on day one. That's expected. It gets useful as sellers list.
If you're an existing holder, list. If you've wanted SIGN exposure ahead of the unlock curve, come look at the book.
