The Frankencoin Association announces a new advisory board, supporting the next phase of the Frankencoin ecosystem, by advising on governance, strategy, and real-world adoption of ZCHF, the Swiss Franc stablecoin

The Frankencoin Association has formed a new five‑member advisory board to guide the next phase of the Frankencoin (ZCHF) ecosystem, focusing on governance, strategy, and real‑world adoption of its Swiss franc‑pegged stablecoin. The board members bring backgrounds spanning retail payments, blockchain entrepreneurship, Swiss private banking, macro‑market analysis, and financial regulation, reflecting a push to position ZCHF more firmly at the intersection of DeFi and traditional finance. According to Swiss business media and the association’s communications, the advisory board consists of André Scherrer (retail C‑level executive with payments and consumer adoption experience), Cédric Waldburger (entrepreneur, investor, and co‑founder of Dfinity, now at Tomahawk.VC), Eric Sarasin (investor and former senior Swiss private banking executive focused on capital markets and wealth management), Philip Hopf (market analyst, YouTuber and entrepreneur with a macro and financial markets focus), and René Keller (independent board member and advisor, with past experience on a regulatory board and in financial market supervision, governance, and technology). Their mandate is to provide external perspectives as Frankencoin scales, integrates more institutional use cases, and strengthens its governance processes. Frankencoin’s ZCHF is described as the largest and most used decentralized Swiss franc stablecoin, over‑collateralized, fully on‑chain, and deployed across multiple blockchains. It uses a rule‑based and veto‑driven governance model, where holders of its FPS governance token can influence collateral types and system parameters, aiming to keep ZCHF fully backed and close to its 1:1 CHF peg. The creation of an advisory board signals an effort to align this decentralized governance and technical architecture with regulatory expectations, institutional requirements, and broader real‑world payment, treasury, and financial application adoption in Switzerland and beyond.
