EEA Monthly Spotlight: From Enterprise Privacy to NYC Tech Week
New members, new research, two Enterprise on Ethereum Live sessions, stablecoin and RWA insights, and three major NYC Tech Week events ahead.

From privacy and staking infrastructure to stablecoins, tokenized assets, onchain allocation, and production-grade infrastructure, the conversations are becoming more practical, more institutional, and more focused on what it actually takes to deploy.
Here’s what shaped the last few weeks.

📚 Latest Event Highlights
Over the past two months, we published several new pieces capturing key themes from across the enterprise Ethereum ecosystem.
Stable Summit IV: Stablecoins and Institutional Payments
From Stable Summit IV, EEA Executive Director Redwan Meslem conversations on two major themes:
→ Panel: Stablecoin Distribution Interoperability
A look at distribution, interoperability, acceptance networks, and what stablecoins need to move from issuance to ubiquity.
→ Fireside: Architecting Singleness of Money
In picture: Tony McLaughlin
A deeper look with Tony McLaughlin, CEO of Ubyx, at how stablecoins, tokenized deposits, CBDCs, and traditional money systems can coexist without fragmenting trust in money.
Cointelegraph Connect: Tokenization and Enterprise Assets
At Cointelegraph Connect Cannes Edition, Redwan joined industry leaders for a conversation on the RWA roadmap, regulation, infrastructure, and the future of enterprise assets.

Vault Summit and Institutional Allocation
At Vault Summit, Redwan joined industry leaders to discuss how Ethereum-native infrastructure is beginning to reshape institutional allocation decisions.
The conversation explored staking, onchain yield, treasury deployment, and why institutions are increasingly evaluating Ethereum infrastructure through the lens of capital efficiency, liquidity, custody, and operational risk.

🎙️ Enterprise on Ethereum Live
We launched Enterprise on Ethereum Live to bring together the people building, integrating, and operating Ethereum-based systems in institutional environments.
Session 1: Onchain Money in Practice [March 20]
Our first session explored payments, synthetic dollars, treasury flows, and the infrastructure required to support onchain money in real enterprise settings.

Session 2: Operating Ethereum at Scale [April 28]
Our second session brought together Gateway.fm, The Graph, and Hacken for a practical conversation on what enterprises actually need from Ethereum infrastructure.
The discussion focused on infrastructure reliability, data access, security, compliance, decentralization tradeoffs, and what “production-grade” really means when organizations move beyond pilots.

🔐 Enterprise Ethereum Finally Has a Privacy Playbook
The EEA Privacy Working Group published its first report, State of Privacy on Ethereum for Enterprise, created in collaboration with Applied Blockchain, Consensys, COTI, EY, Kaleido, Polygon, and ZKsync / Matter Labs.
The report maps enterprise privacy solutions across key requirements including transaction privacy, compliance, selective disclosure, and mainnet settlement, helping institutions better evaluate privacy approaches for Ethereum-based deployments.

🌱Announcement: EEA Treasury Deployment Into Ethereum-Native Staking Infrastructure
The EEA also shared an update on its treasury deployment into Ethereum-native staking infrastructure.
The piece explains how institutional treasury decisions around staking are shaped by operational questions around liquidity, custody support, risk, and regulated infrastructure.

✨ New Member Spotlight: ECH Institute
We’re excited to welcome ECH Institute to the Enterprise Ethereum Alliance as our newest member.
ECH Institute has been stewarding Ethereum’s technical upgrade process for years, helping the ecosystem coordinate around what gets built and how Ethereum evolves. We’re looking forward to working together to make that process more accessible to enterprises, and to help EEA members better understand the protocol decisions shaping Ethereum’s future.
🔜 Up Next: NYC Tech Week
NYC Tech Week is going to be a big one.
EEA is heading to New York for three back-to-back events bringing together the people building the next phase of onchain finance, from agentic systems to stablecoins to institutional infrastructure.
Agentic Finance Summit
June 3 · New York City
A full day on the future of agent-driven financial systems, with leaders from AI, finance, crypto, and infrastructure.
Speakers include leaders from Solana, Microsoft, OpenAI, MetaMask, Mento Labs, EEA, Kwil, Merit Systems, ChaosChain, and AWS.
The summit takes place in association with EEA and will focus on standards, interoperability, identity, consent, and production coordination for the agentic finance stack.
Stable Summit IV: NYC
June 4 · New York City
Hosted in association with EEA, Stable Summit returns to NYC for high-signal conversations on stablecoins, payments, interoperability, and enterprise adoption!
Vault Summit NYC
June 5 · NYSE, New York City
Vault Summit NYC brings together institutional and onchain financial systems at one of the most iconic financial venues in the world: the New York Stock Exchange 🔥
This event will also take place in association with EEA, helping coordinate Ethereum’s move into production.
👋 See You Before EthConf
If you’re heading to New York for EthConf and Tech Week, come join us beforehand.
From AI-driven finance to stablecoins to institutional onchain infrastructure, it’s shaping up to be one of the strongest weeks we’ve seen for enterprise Ethereum conversations all year.
📣 We’ve secured special discounts for EEA subscribers and members across the events. If you’re keen on access, please reply to this email or reach out to [email protected].
Closing Thoughts
Over the past two months, we’ve seen stronger alignment across the people, infrastructure, and conversations shaping enterprise Ethereum.
It is becoming a coordination challenge across infrastructure, privacy, compliance, liquidity, governance, security, and standards.
That is exactly where the EEA is focused: bringing the right people into the right rooms, creating shared language, and helping Ethereum move into enterprise production with confidence.
