The Crypto Company (OTC: CRCW) announced today the acquisition of Frame Holdings Ltd.'s intellectual property, including Frame Blockchain, a purpose-built Layer 1 blockchain designed to connect fragmented crypto ecosystems into a single interoperable settlement network. The company intends to launch the Frame Blockchain this year as crypto commerce enters a period of rapid global expansion.
The current crypto landscape is fragmented, with networks like Bitcoin, Ethereum, Solana, Avalanche, and Polygon operating as isolated economies. Frame Blockchain aims to unify them by enabling applications, assets, and value to move across ecosystems seamlessly. Rather than competing with existing protocols, Frame Blockchain connects them, featuring post-quantum security, architectural protections against front-running, and enterprise-grade throughput. It includes a private mempool architecture that eliminates MEV bot extraction, a common issue in existing protocols.
Ron Levy, CEO of The Crypto Company, stated, 'We believe an economic expansion of historic magnitude is taking shape in real time. That economy needs a settlement layer that matches its speed and ambition, and we believe digital assets are required to enable that growth.'
Sean Docherty, Frame Blockchain's creator and chief architect, described the technology as 'the interstate highway system for crypto. Commerce within each city might thrive, but without a highway connecting them, trade between them grinds to a halt. That's crypto today.'
Jared Strasser, COO of The Crypto Company, emphasized the importance of connection: 'As AI-driven commerce grows and autonomous agents begin transacting with digital assets, an interoperable settlement layer becomes even more critical. We believe Frame Blockchain positions us at the center of both of those opportunities.'
Rafe Furst, Chief Strategy Officer, noted that combining a public company with a new Layer 1 blockchain unlocks aligned exposure to the economics of crypto commerce. The acquisition was completed through a simultaneous sign-and-close transaction with no TCC equity issued at closing and no upfront cash. All equity consideration is milestone-based, earned upon achievement of predefined performance and adoption targets. TCC has committed $2 million in capital to fund initial development through its newly formed subsidiary, Frame Intelligence, LLC.
