Quince North — A permissioned netting engine for trading venues and brokers that are already licensed. It reduces what has to settle. It is not a new CCP, and it is not a collateral token.
Closed on this board. Any capital event was completed with the issuer’s own providers. RCA Pad took 0%.
Closed. The live conversation is over. The pack remains as archive.
Diligence, not a prospectus. RCA Pad does not allocate, take orders, or close funding. If this company raises, it raises with its own counsel.

The wedge
Quince North is replacing the PDF slip, not the carrier.
Why the desk took it
They named a coverholder, not a protocol.
Traction
Founded 2026, headquartered in Warsaw. 2 named pilots on file (identities redacted in public). 6 nodes or connected surfaces reported. Desk diligence score 72/100. An AIFM whose auditor has seen the dual-record. Architecture says keys / title / NAV liability sit with a named licensed party — not Quince North.
Next 12 months
Excel bordereaux are the incumbent. Beat that. Seat plus event. If they ever attach a token as the unit of account, the file stops.
The brief
In Warsaw, the person who signs the monthly pack already has a vendor. Quince North is not asking them to believe in a token. It is asking them to move one job — the one that currently lives in a spreadsheet, a fax, or a person who is about to retire — onto a record that can be shown to counsel. The queue to read that record is already not empty.
Read this as an operating company, not a round. Counsel has a posture: Warsaw · closed private round. Restricted markets stay dark. RCA Pad takes 0% if they ever raise. That combination is why inbound did not need a ticker.
A sentence went public and came down in under an hour. Owen Diaz treated the kill as an operating skill, not a PR event. Files that cannot do this do not stay listed.
From the screen
We will not describe this as Reg CA-compliant, MiCA-stickered, or FCA-authorised. Issuers retain their own counsel in every relevant jurisdiction.
From the pilot
A dual-control drill exists on paper. Production evidence is the next artefact, not a tweet.
From the founder
US persons are outside the audience. A form that asks “are you accredited?” without verification is not an exemption.
The window
The incumbent will still be slow in a year. The window will not.
The incumbent copy takes a year. The named customer is already writing into this record.
If you are a founder who wants a pack like this: apply. If you are a buyer: call them — not us.
Window
Closed
Closed. History only — not a place to buy.
If RCA Pad ever asked for a cut of a raise, we would walk. That is in the first email.

A L2 wrapper is cheaper. It is also a different perimeter — and declined here.

The bet
Quince North is replacing the PDF slip, not the carrier.
Quince North is replacing the PDF slip, not the carrier.
T+1 and capital rules make gross settlement expensive. Venues will buy netting as a service before they will buy a new licence.
Post-trade cost is a line on every broker P&L. A 10% cut in settlement fails is a CFO conversation.
Versus the field
A generalist vendor can copy the slide in a quarter. They cannot copy the named record, the scheme map, or the auditor conversation. That is the year they would have to buy.
The live path is Warsaw · closed private round. Proposed Regulation Crypto Assets is not treated as a calendar slot. Build as if it never opens.

A round, if any, sits with their providers. This pad does not take the order.

Readiness
Six things a serious buyer asks. 100 is “ready to take to counsel and a customer.”
Risks
The one that actually kills it
Seat plus event. If they attach a token as the unit of account, this company is a different company — and not one we will operate a campaign for.
If a regulator reads this as clearing, the licence problem is existential.
That ask has been refused on files like this. It should stay refused.
Who eats the loss? If the answer is ‘the protocol’, there is no protocol that can.
CCPs can copy the netting logic faster than a startup can collect members.
If Quince North looks like it is taking risk, it needs a licence. The file says it does not. Keep it that way.
A later round that wants a public token puts Quince North in a different perimeter. The file treats that as a hard stop.

Where they can operate
Named markets are where a sentence is allowed. Restricted is where it is not. This is not a worldwide offering.

Stack
Named with them
Who can decide
Owen Diaz came in named. The team is not a handle. Quince North Ltd exists, founded 2026, headquartered in Warsaw. Anonymity would have been an automatic decline.
A second counterparty writing into the record is the only network effect that counts. One customer is a consultancy. Two is a market.
