Run omnibus custody with per-user truth
Virtualize omnibus wallets, attribute every satoshi and cent to its owner, and reconcile hot and cold storage in real time.
Omnibus accounts are black boxes
Pooling funds saves gas. It also destroys attribution.
Pooled wallets hold millions across chains and storage tiers with no clear record of whose funds are whose. Attribution lives in application code, sweeps go unrecorded, and regulators want proof you cannot produce.
Pooled wallets hold customer funds with no auditable per-user attribution.
Hot/cold sweeps and internal transfers happen outside any system of record.
Balances are tracked per chain and per provider, never as one position.
Proof-of-funds and travel-rule requests take days of manual reconstruction.
_PROOF/ Custodians virtualize omnibus accounts on Formance, tracking ownership off-chain while funds stay pooled.
Pooled on-chain, attributed off-chain
Deposits pool for efficiency; ownership stays exact in the ledger.
Deposits land in omnibus wallets, the sub-ledger attributes every unit to its owner, and internal transfers move off-chain at zero gas. Withdrawals debit the exact owner: attribution is never approximate.
The primitives custodians need
Built on the open-source Formance ledger.
Omnibus sub-ledgering, multi-chain aggregation, and continuous reconciliation, composed for custody at scale.
Per-user balances inside pooled wallets and bank accounts, derived from an immutable log and queryable at any timestamp.
per-user attribution
One position per user across chains, wallets, and storage tiers, aggregated in a single query.
one position, every chain
Move funds between users off-chain as ledger transactions: instant, atomic, and gas-free.
zero-gas transfers
Read the Numscript docsReconcile ledger state against hot wallets, cold storage, and custodial providers continuously, with drift alerts.

Custody-grade, by design
Attribution is a transaction, not a lookup table
Pool the deposit and attribute the owner in one atomic operation.
A single Numscript transaction records the on-chain deposit into the omnibus wallet and attributes the exact amount to its owner in the sub-ledger.

Custody, answered
01 / HOW DO YOU TRACK OWNERSHIP IN POOLED WALLETS?
Every pooled wallet is sub-ledgered: each user's share is a derived balance in an immutable double-entry log, exact at any timestamp, not a row in application state.
02 / DO INTERNAL TRANSFERS TOUCH THE CHAIN?
No. User-to-user moves are ledger transactions against the same pooled wallet: instant, atomic, and free of gas, while the on-chain position stays unchanged.
03 / CAN I PROVE FUNDS FOR A REGULATOR?
Yes. Point-in-time reports reconstruct per-user holdings and total positions across chains and storage tiers, reproducibly, straight from the log.
04 / WHAT ABOUT HOT/COLD SWEEPS?
Sweeps are recorded as transfers between storage accounts and reconciled against on-chain state continuously, so custody operations never escape the record.
