Does anyone know of a good Abaxx $ABXX write-up?

Big day! Watching Digital Title move from concept into a commercial framework with Alta is really exciting. The piece I’m most proud of is the structure itself: a Singapore VCC (a regulated open-ended fund vehicle, similar in concept to a mutual fund) with MMF shares designed to function as T+0 collateral at Abaxx Clearing (subject to regulatory approval), by utilizing full ID++ identity attribution to create a secure evidence trail, and with yield continuing to accrue throughout (as a vehicle sweetener for our clients). Integrating our digital title tech into a traditional, regulated fund vehicle in an advanced capital market jurisdiction is the part that’s quietly novel, and a clear sign this can work within TradFi rails. Having spent years on the fund manager side, I have a clear view of what makes a good partner here, and Alta brings it. A meaningful milestone for Abaxx and for the technology behind digital title…. And now back to the grindstone!

Meet Agents++ Our first open-source release to develop the next generation of technology that will build smarter markets. Agents are moving from tools to actors, initiating and coordinating actions across systems as delegated extensions of users and institutions.

World, Sam Altman's digital identity project, just unveiled World ID 4.0, what the company calls "full-stack proof of human" infrastructure. The partner list: Tinder, Zoom, DocuSign, Shopify, Okta, AWS, and Vercel. Altman opened by saying we're heading to a world where AI generates more content than humans. Pantera Capital says we've already crossed that threshold. World's answer is an iris-scanning device called the Orb that creates a unique cryptographic ID proving you're a real person. 18 million people across 160 countries have already verified. Tinder is rolling out "verified human" badges in the U.S. after a Japan pilot. Zoom built a feature called "Deep Face" that verifies the person on a video call isn't a deepfake. DocuSign is adding proof-of-human checks to digital signatures. Shopify is enabling verified-human commerce. The most significant announcement is AgentKit, infrastructure that lets AI agents carry cryptographic proof they're acting on behalf of a verified human. Okta built an agent delegation system on top of it. The problem World is solving is real. The question is whether a centralized iris-scanning identity layer controlled by the same person whose company helped create the problem is the right answer. Altman is the CEO of OpenAI. He built the flood. Now he's selling the ark.

NASDAQ WILL COLLABORATE WITH KRAKEN TO LAUNCH TOKENIZED STOCKS ON ITS EXCHANGE- WSJ

KRAKEN GAINS DIRECT ACCESS TO FED PAYMENT SYSTEM Crypto exchange Kraken has secured a limited-purpose account with the Federal Reserve Bank of Kansas City, allowing it to access core U.S. payment systems typically reserved for banks. The approval—granted to its Wyoming entity, Kraken Financial—lets the firm settle transactions directly on Fedwire without a banking intermediary, though with restrictions and a one-year initial term. The move marks a major step in integrating crypto with traditional finance, as firms push for direct access to U.S. payment infrastructure amid resistance from banks.
