Abstract

L'IA dévore le monde à un rythme sans précédent, mais deux voies distinctes émergent : celle des géants technologiques monopolistiques comme OpenAI, et celle des plateformes open source comme Sentient. Cette dernière, soutenue par un financement de 85 millions de dollars et des investisseurs prestigieux tels que Founders Fund et Pantera Capital, incarne une alternative décentralisée et anti-censure aux modèles fermés. Sentient construit un écosystème open source autour de son réseau GRID, qui intègre déjà plus de 110 partenaires, incluant des agents IA spécialisés, des fournisseurs de données et des infrastructures de calcul. Contrairement aux modèles opaques et centralisés, sa philosophie repose sur l’interopérabilité, la transparence et la monétisation via le jeton SENT. Parmi ses réalisations concrètes, l'agent de recherche SERA-Crypto se distingue en surpassant des modèles comme GPT-5 dans les analyses en temps réel des marchés cryptos. En favorisant la contribution communautaire et l’incitation économique, Sentient vise à créer une boucle vertueuse où utilisateurs, développeurs et produits alimentent ensemble l’évolution de l’IA ouverte. Alors qu’OpenAI fait face à des défis de saturation et de centralisation, Sentient incarne une vision plus démocratique, collaborative et évolutive de l’intelligence artificielle générale — une véritable plateforme d’IA par et pour la communauté.

Titre original: Vaincre OpenAI? L'ambition de la plateforme d'IA open source Sentient va au-delà

L'IA dévore le monde à une vitesse sans précédent, mais deux trajectoires distinctes se dessinent discrètement.

D'un côté, l'expansion de la carte de l'IA sous le monopole des géants technologiques : Nvidia, grâce à ses ressources en puces et cartes graphiques, est devenue la première entreprise cotée à atteindre une capitalisation boursière de 5 000 milliards de dollars ; Google et Amazon se sont successivement lancés dans la fabrication de puces, cherchant à occuper une position avantageuse ; OpenAI, Anthropic et autres géants de l'IA ont vu leur valorisation grimper à des centaines de milliards de dollars. De l'autre côté, le développement rapide de l'IA au niveau micro : la mention par Jensen Huang, fondateur de Nvidia, lors du CES 2025 début d'année, selon laquelle "les agents IA pourraient devenir la prochaine industrie robotique, avec un marché de plusieurs milliers de milliards de dollars" se concrétise progressivement. Des dizaines de millions d'agents IA pénètrent quotidiennement tous les aspects de la société humaine, ce qui signifie que les géants technologiques deviennent progressivement des acteurs clés "détenant les clés des portes du monde de l'IA". Sur la base de l'évolution passée de l'industrie Internet, beaucoup se demandent peut-être : l'IA est-elle sur le point de devenir "un autre jeu réservé aux géants technologiques" ?

La réponse de Sentient est "Non".

En tant que plateforme d'IA open source adhérant au fondamentalisme d'Internet, elle a précédemment levé 85 millions de dollars en financement de démarrage (seed round), avec des investisseurs leaders incluant Founders Fund de Peter Thiel, Pantera Capital et Framework Ventures, ainsi que de nombreuses autres institutions vedettes. Sur la voie inévitable de l'IA qui dévore le monde, Sentient a choisi un chemin radicalement différent de celui des grandes entreprises. Et c'est précisément le "prologue de l'AGI open source" que Odaily Planet Daily va analyser systématiquement aujourd'hui.

Premier aperçu de Sentient : Brandissant le drapeau de l'IA open source, face aux géants monopolistiques valant des milliers de milliards

En juillet dernier, Sentient a annoncé avoir levé 85 millions de dollars en financement de démarrage, avec un groupe d'investisseurs somptueux — les leaders incluant Founders Fund de Peter Thiel, Pantera Capital et Framework Ventures ; les participants incluant Ethereal Ventures, Robot Ventures, Symbolic Capital, Delphi Ventures, Hack VC, Arrington Capital, HashKey Capital, Canonical Crypto, LD Capital et Foresight Ventures, ainsi qu'une série d'autres VC renommés de l'industrie crypto.

Il faut savoir que les projets crypto capables d'obtenir un tel montant en phase de démarrage ont toujours été rares, sans parler du puissant soutien de cette série de capitaux vedettes derrière cet investissement. Auparavant, seuls quelques projets majeurs de blockchain de couche 1 (L1) avaient pu obtenir un tel soutien puissant. Pendant un temps, "comment Sentient a-t-il mérité une telle faveur des capitaux ?" est devenu l'un des sujets brûlants dans le cercle crypto. La réponse est venue rapidement.

Viser OpenAI, l'équipe de Sentient affronte la concurrence des géants

Lors d'interviews médiatiques ultérieures, plusieurs partenaires des institutions leaders de Sentient ont donné leur réponse —

Joey Krug, partenaire de Founders Fund, a déclaré que la principale raison d'investir dans Sentient était son équipe, louant l'acuité technique des co-fondateurs Sandeep (fondateur de Polygon) et Pramod (professeur à Princeton) ; Paul Veradittakit, managing partner de Pantera Capital, a déclaré que si le développement de l'IA reste fermé, de nombreux aspects clés de la société seront vulnérables aux effets de concentration de la censure et de la recherche de rente. Les modèles d'IA "ouverts, monétisables et loyaux" (OML) de Sentient "ont un énorme potentiel pour perturber l'industrie du développement de l'IA" ; Brandon Potts, partenaire de Framework Ventures, a également exprimé une haute estime pour l'équipe et la technologie, affirmant sans détour que "l'équipe de Sentient est la plus capable de résoudre les problèmes économiques de l'IA open source".

Dans le financement de démarrage plutôt impressionnant de Sentient, la règle d'or "investir, c'est investir dans les gens" s'est manifestée de manière éclatante, et les membres de l'équipe derrière le projet Sentient peuvent indeed être qualifiés de "dream team" (compilation via Grok) —

Les 4 co-fondateurs de Sentient

Plus important encore, lors de cette interview, l'ambition de Sentient a été à nouveau soulignée — concurrencer directement le géant de l'IA, OpenAI, la société derrière ChatGPT, et son principal moyen de concurrence est de construire des modèles d'IA open source grâce aux contributions de la communauté.

La valeur universelle de la plateforme d'IA open source : Décentralisation, résistance à la censure, quantification monétaire

Contrairement aux modèles fermés des géants de l'IA comme OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, Sentient a choisi une voie "difficile mais juste" pour le développement de l'AGI — une plateforme d'IA open source.

Pour faire une analogie avec "prendre un taxi", les modèles et applications d'IA fournis par les entreprises commerciales comme OpenAI et Anthropic sont comme des "plateformes d'IA centralisées" qui mettent un sac sur la tête du passager : l'utilisateur passager ne connaît pas l'itinéraire, encore moins si les frais sont raisonnables, tout doit être laissé à "l'arrangement boîte noire" de l'entreprise commerciale ; la voie de l'IA open source de Sentient choisit de mettre l'itinéraire, les coûts spécifiques et des choix diversifiés devant l'utilisateur, permettant à l'utilisateur de choisir librement, et même de "rejoindre la plateforme" pour fournir des "solutions" correspondantes à plus d'utilisateurs. Plus précisément, par rapport aux produits des géants monopolistiques de l'IA sur le marché, la plateforme d'IA open source de Sentient présente les avantages suivants :

1. Assurer la diversité et l'interopérabilité des produits IA. Contrairement aux modèles d'IA uniques des diverses grandes entreprises, Sentient offre plus de modèles d'IA au choix des utilisateurs, et divers modèles d'IA peuvent produire un certain effet de synergie, avec une certaine interopérabilité, permettant aux utilisateurs de profiter d'une expérience IA tout-en-un.

2. Éviter les pannes et les problèmes de comportement malveillant des applications et modèles d'IA centralisés. Précédemment, les corpus de modèles d'OpenAI ont impliqué des problèmes d'infraction au droit d'auteur de médias d'information, et le fait que les modèles d'IA évitent les informations sensibles des sociétés développeuses et les mécanismes de censure centralisés est un fait indéniable. La panne de Cloudflare qui a provoqué la déconnexion de ChatGPT a également reflété la "fragilité" des modèles d'IA centralisés. Sur ces aspects, l'IA open source de Sentient peut apporter certaines garanties techniques concernant la résistance à la censure du contenu produit, la redondance de sécurité et la stabilité du service.

3. Désintermédiation et amélioration de l'efficacité dans le domaine de l'IA. Le principal avantage des plateformes d'IA open source provient de "venir des masses, retourner aux masses". L'architecture décentralisée construisant un réseau multipartite peut connecter directement les développeurs et les utilisateurs, effectuant un appariement plus efficace de l'offre et de la demande, permettant aux modèles d'IA de servir véritablement les besoins réels du marché.

4. Outils de plateforme de monétisation pour le processus d'application et de développement de l'IA. Le modèle d'IA OML (Open, Monétisable, Loyal) de Sentient et le réseau AGI open source déjà lancé GRID peuvent aider les modèles et applications d'IA à utiliser le jeton SENT pour récompenser le développement, nourrir l'écosystème et quantifier la croissance. En assurant la propriété, le contrôle et la cohérence, Sentient a ainsi établi un réseau de plateforme monétaire conciliant le développement de l'IA et l'exploitation commerciale.

Sur la base de ces avantages uniques, à ce jour, Sentient a déjà établi un réseau écosystémique d'IA open source mature.

Plongée dans Sentient : Commencer par les applications, aller au-delà, utiliser l'écosystème pour favoriser la croissance du réseau

Après environ un an de développement, Sentient a successivement lancé une série de produits développés en interne comme Dobby, la bibliothèque d'empreintes digitales de modèles (Model Fingerprinting) et la recherche profonde ouverte (Open Deep Search), le réseau AGI open source GRID (Global Research & Intelligence Directory), ROMA (Recursive Open Meta AI Agent) ainsi que des applications réseau diversifiées comme l'agent de recherche IA open source SERA-Crypto.

Qui plus est, avec l'apparition de GRID et la construction et l'amélioration progressive du modèle économique du jeton SENT, la "cartographie de l'écosystème IA" construite autour de la plateforme d'IA open source Sentient est également en phase d'amélioration rapide.

Selon des informations officielles, le réseau AGI open source GRID comprend désormais plus de 110 partenaires, incluant

Plus de 50 agents IA professionnels ;
Plus de 50 fournisseurs de données professionnels ;
6 modèles IA ;
Plus de 10 fournisseurs d'infrastructures de calcul et d'IA vérifiable.

Aperçu des partenaires du réseau GRID

Parmi les partenaires représentatifs figurent les projets suivants : le projet de génération de graphiques IA Napkin, le moteur de recherche LLM (modèle de langage large) Exa, la plateforme de recherche de personnes pilotée par l'IA Caldo, la plateforme de suivi des données on-chain Arkham, la plateforme de puissance de calcul décentralisée pour entreprises Aethir, la plateforme de données sociales crypto Kaito, la plateforme d'agents d' insights crypto Messari Co-Pilot, la plateforme d'indexation de données blockchain The Graph, l'échange de cryptomonnaies Crypto.com, la blockchain Polygon ainsi que le système d'arbitrage IA Dobby Judge sur le réseau EigenLayer, etc. Basé sur le développement de l'effet de synergie écosystémique, la valeur de Sentient en tant que plateforme d'IA open source se manifeste principalement en deux points : premièrement, pouvoir attirer les constructeurs d'écosystème comme la puissance de calcul, les données, etc. ; deuxièmement, à travers les incitations token et le modèle de staking, nourrir le développement de l'écosystème d'IA open source, en particulier les modèles et applications d'IA verticales étroitement liés aux besoins de l'industrie crypto devraient connaître une période d'effervescence.

L'agent de recherche IA open source SERA-Crypto récemment lancé par Sentient en est un bon exemple. Il est nécessaire de développer un peu ici — depuis toujours, combiner l'IA avec les conditions du marché crypto pour aider à la prise de décision de trading est un besoin réel pour d'innombrables personnes, et aussi une direction d'application que de nombreux développeurs étudient assidûment. Mais en raison des hallucinations des grands modèles, des difficultés à mettre à jour les données de marché en temps réel et de la complexité des requêtes d'état on-chain et des opérations sur portefeuille, "l'agent IA né pour la recherche crypto" est toujours absent.

SERA Crypto est donc né. Cet agent IA axé sur "l'architecture d'agent de raisonnement et d'incorporation sémantique" a remporté dès sa sortie le titre de "premier agent open source sur DMind" ; dans des tests de référence crypto en temps réel incluant la corrélation temporelle, la cohérence des données, la profondeur de recherche et la pertinence, SERA Crypto a obtenu un score de 34.3 points, se classant premier, performance globale même supérieure à des modèles IA grand public comme GPT-5, Grok 4, Gemini 3 Pro et Perplexity Finance, et toutes les opérations ont été réalisées en moins de 45 secondes.

Après avoir combiné les avantages du cadrage de routage, de la clarification des données, de l'optimisation architecturale et du raisonnement structurel, SERA a pu filtrer le flux d'informations "grandes et complètes mais inutiles" et "petites et belles mais fausses" pour extraire des informations de raisonnement en temps réel, utilisables et instructives. Ainsi, l'équipe Sentient a réussi à créer un "agent IA qui comprend les cryptomonnaies", plutôt qu'un "assistant rigide de type machine" sans capacité de réflexion, ne faisant que réciter des conclusions. Bien sûr, la création de SERA doit aussi beaucoup aux près de 300 000 utilisateurs de la communauté Sentient et à plus de 22 millions de requêtes utilisateur.

Classement des performances globales du modèle SERA Crypto en première place

Désormais, les utilisateurs peuvent, via le jeton SENT, accéder à diverses applications IA (y compris diverses unités d'agents de plateforme) via la plateforme open source Sentient, satisfaisant leurs besoins réels d'inférence d'applications IA ; les développeurs de l'écosystème Sentient peuvent recevoir des incitations en jetons SENT via les frais payés par les utilisateurs ; de plus, le modèle de staking du jeton SENT peut assurer dans une certaine mesure le fonctionnement stable du système de cycle économique au sein de l'écosystème.

Schéma de la roue d'inertie (flywheel) de l'écosystème communautaire GRID et Sentient

Finalement, l'économie écosystémique IA monétaire construite sur la plateforme d'IA open source Sentient prend complètement forme, et la direction d'optimisation évolue vers — de meilleurs modèles et applications IA attirant plus d'utilisateurs et de développeurs IA participant et rejoignant, ces derniers催生催生 (cui sheng - faire naître, engendrer) à leur tour plus de modèles et applications IA de qualité, construisant ensemble une roue de développement intégrant quatre éléments en un : utilisateurs - jetons - développeurs - produits.

Présentation du jeton SENT : "L'énergie centrale" qui anime le fonctionnement de la plateforme d'IA open source

En tant que "moteur énergétique" qui soutient le fonctionnement continu de ce vaste écosystème Sentient, le rôle du jeton SENT est crucial.

Précédemment, le jeton SENT avait été listé en pré-lancement sur OKX, et sur les contrats à terme (futures) de Binance ; le 6 décembre, Coinbase a officiellement annoncé ajouter SENT à sa feuille de route de listage. Dès lors, en tant que jeton central de l'écosystème Sentient, SENT a réussi à réaliser l'exploit d'"atterrir sur 3 grandes CEX".

Précédemment, Sentient avait officiellement annoncé le 17 novembre la fin officielle de la saison 1 de ses activités. À l'époque, l'airdrop de jetons visait principalement les membres de la communauté Sentient (y compris les membres de la communauté Discord), les utilisateurs de chat IA, les KOL crypto, les chercheurs open source, etc. Le 18 novembre, son lien d'enregistrement officiel pour l'airdrop a été ouvert, la date de clôture initiale étant prévue pour le 29 novembre. Par la suite, la date limite d'enregistrement a été repoussée au 5 décembre.

Selon les informations publiées ultérieurement par les officiels et les messages du personnel officiel, davantage d'incitations en jetons SENT pour la communauté seront étroitement liées aux contributions de contenu sur les médias sociaux comme la plateforme X et à la part de présence mentale IA (AI mindshare) sur des plateformes de données sociales crypto comme Kaito.

Outre les voies conventionnelles de participation à l'utilisation de la plateforme et des applications Sentient Chat, au développement de modèles IA, d'agents IA et d'applications, aider l'écosystème Sentient à étendre sa promotion marketing sera probablement le thème principal de la saison 2 des activités d'airdrop de SENT. Pour plus de détails, vous pouvez suivre le compte X officiel ou consulter le site web officiel.

Indication claire ("明牌暗示") du personnel officiel

Conclusion : La limite d'auto-évolution de l'IA open source dépasse de loin l'imagination humaine

Alors que le développement des grands modèles d'IA fermés s'enlise progressivement dans une impasse d'homogénéité, l'IA open source pourrait devenir une force importante pour faire entrer l'intelligence artificielle en eaux profondes. Tout comme l'open source du système Android a engendré le développement rapide des appareils smartphones et l'avènement de l'Internet mobile, les plateformes d'IA open source comme Sentient ne font pas qu'une simple application de chat IA, mais tout un écosystème d'IA open source — incluant à la fois les protocoles underlyings, l'architecture système, ainsi que les modèles spécifiques et les applications d'agents IA.

Plus important encore, contrairement à la construction en vase clos des modèles et applications d'IA fermés, l'IA open source peut dans une certaine mesure réaliser une "auto-évolution", c'est aussi la direction que Sentient avait décidée dès le début en choisissant cette voie "difficile mais juste".

Alors qu'OpenAI s'inquiète encore des nouveaux produits sans cesse renouvelés de ses concurrents et est obligé de fermer Sora, Sentient aspire à tracer une voie de développement de l'IA plus universaliste, conforme aux aspirations de la communauté open source. À l'aube de l'ère où la vie carbonée guide la vie silicium, la plateforme d'IA open source apporte non seulement l'aube d'un réseau AGI, mais aussi un réseau écosystémique d'IA open source plus attentif à la loyauté, aux incitations monétaires, à la cohérence du service et avec moins d'"hallucinations IA".

Wall Street's Most Famous 'Cassandra' Now Has His Sights Set on Nvidia

Michael Burry, the famed "Big Short" investor, has once again captured Wall Street's attention with a series of short positions against major tech and semiconductor stocks, most notably Nvidia. In late June and July, through his "Cassandra Unchained" newsletter, Burry disclosed short bets against Nvidia, Tesla, Applied Materials, Caterpillar, the SOXX semiconductor ETF, and later, Micron Technology. His core thesis revolves around potential distortions in the AI infrastructure boom, specifically questioning whether extended depreciation schedules (e.g., 6 years vs. a realistic 2-3 years for AI chips) by cloud giants like Microsoft and Google artificially inflate profits. He also raises concerns about possible "off-balance-sheet circular financing," where chip demand might be propped up by vendor-backed funding to clients. Nvidia's stock experienced volatility following these disclosures, briefly dipping but largely holding near Burry's reported entry points, leaving his positions roughly flat or slightly underwater as of late July. This move is part of a pattern for Burry, whose track record since his legendary 2008 bet is mixed. He has faced notable losses, such as on Tesla in 2021, while scoring on broader market turns like the 2020 pandemic crash. His methodology focuses intensely on free cash flow and scrutinizing original financial documents to spot overvaluation and structural risks, but it often struggles with timing the market. The article contrasts Burry's stance with other prominent investors. Steve Eisman, another "Big Short" figure, is not shorting Nvidia, citing strong fundamentals but expressing nervousness about sustainability. Jim Chanos agrees with the broad "accounting mismatch" concern—comparing it to the dot-com bubble—but targets financial leverage in private equity firms rather than the chip stocks themselves. While Nvidia's short interest remains relatively low at 1.3-1.4% of float, the massive stock size means absolute short losses have been significant, exceeding $5 billion earlier this year. The piece concludes that for ordinary investors, the key takeaway is not replicating specific short bets but learning from the critical frameworks these investors use: questioning rosy accounting, identifying structural vulnerabilities, and maintaining skepticism during market euphoria, even if pinpointing the exact catalyst for a downturn remains elusive.

Weekly Selection丨Epic Stock Market Volatility, Changxin Tech's IPO Reshapes Storage Landscape, Saylor Aims to Re-Anchor STRC Around September 8th

PANews Weekly Digest: Market Turmoil, Tech Breakthroughs, and Crypto Developments. The week saw significant volatility across global markets. South Korea's KOSPI index experienced extreme turbulence, including multiple trading halts, largely driven by sharp declines in AI hardware stocks like SK Hynix. In contrast, China's Changxin Xinqiao (CXC) achieved a landmark IPO with a market cap surpassing 4 trillion yuan, marking a major success for the domestic DRAM industry after a decade of losses. In the crypto and Web3 space, several key narratives emerged. AI is driving demand for new infrastructure, with projects like AI agent wallets and programmable payments gaining traction, attracting interest from firms like Coinbase. The Bitcoin mining sector is pivoting, with companies like MARA focusing on energy management as electricity becomes a core AI-era asset. Meanwhile, the RWA (Real World Assets) sector faces a "utilization puzzle," with hundreds of billions in on-chain assets remaining dormant. Notable market movements included a historic single-day surge of over 17% for the KOSPI index and a significant migration of $16.5 billion in staked ETH within the Lido ecosystem. Michael Saylor announced a target to re-peg the STRC stablecoin around September 8th. Other highlights include discussions on Ethereum's ambitious 2030 roadmap for scaling and privacy, analysis showing high protocol revenues not always translating to token price gains, and warnings from Citi about potential extreme commodity price shocks by late 2026.

When the Market Begins to Question AI Capex: A Full Analysis of Q2 Earnings Reports from Five Tech Giants

In late July 2026, five major US tech giants—Alphabet, Intel, Microsoft, Meta, and Apple—released their Q2 earnings reports. While all companies exceeded revenue and profit expectations, driven by strong AI-related business growth, investor reactions diverged sharply due to concerns over escalating AI capital expenditures (capex) and their impact on free cash flow. Alphabet reported strong revenue growth and a surging cloud business, but its stock fell after announcing a doubled year-on-year capex and negative quarterly free cash flow for the first time. Intel posted its strongest revenue growth in over 15 years, but its stock experienced volatile trading after significantly raising its full-year capex guidance. Microsoft saw its stock surge after beating estimates and, crucially, lowering its capex forecast while projecting positive free cash flow. Meta faced the most severe sell-off as its profits declined despite revenue beats, with free cash flow plunging over 90% and its capex guidance raised. Apple reported record June-quarter results, but its stock plummeted after providing Q4 revenue guidance that fell short of expectations, citing supply chain constraints and forex headwinds. The overall takeaway is that the market's focus has shifted from validating AI demand to scrutinizing the timeline for returns on massive AI investments. Companies demonstrating a clearer path to managing capex and preserving free cash flow, like Microsoft, were rewarded, while those signaling continued aggressive spending faced investor skepticism.

a16z: From Companies to DAOs, DUNA May Become the Next Generation Organizational Form

This article, "From Companies to DAOs: How DUNA Could Become the Next Organizational Form," traces the 500-year evolution of business collaboration. It begins with medieval structures like the *commenda* and Florentine *compagnia*, which exposed partners to personal risk. The modern corporation, exemplified by the Dutch East India Company (VOC), was a revolutionary leap, enabling large-scale, capital-intensive ventures by offering limited liability and reducing coordination costs. However, corporations introduced new challenges like principal-agent problems and bureaucratic overhead. The piece argues that software and internet-native protocols are now reducing these traditional overheads. Decentralized Autonomous Organizations (DAOs) emerged as a new model for coordination without centralized management. Yet, DAOs face a significant legal vacuum: they lack legal recognition, leaving members exposed to unlimited personal liability, and their tokens are vulnerable to being classified as securities under unclear regulations (e.g., the Howey Test). This has forced projects into suboptimal workarounds like offshore foundations. The article identifies the Decentralized Unincorporated Nonprofit Association (DUNA) as a potential solution. Recently legalized in states like Wyoming, the DUNA provides a legal wrapper for decentralized networks. It grants key protections—legal personality, limited liability, and perpetual existence—to a group without imposing a traditional hierarchical management structure. This allows token-holder communities to govern, hold assets, and contract as a single legal entity, aligning with their decentralized nature. While DUNA doesn't solve all governance challenges or magically resolve securities law questions, it represents a crucial step. It fills the legal recognition gap, offering a native legal form for internet-scale, decentralized collaboration and extending the separation of personal risk from organizational venture into a new domain.

2026 Mid-Year Report On-Chain RWA: Tokenized Stock Market Cap Doubles in a Year, But 90% of Rights Are Hollow Shells

The 2026 Mid-Year Report on On-Chain RWA highlights a significant growth in tokenized stock market capitalization, which nearly doubled from $951 million in March to $1.89 billion by July. However, the report reveals a fundamental contradiction in this "layer 2.5" ecosystem: products with the strongest legal foundation (like regulated U.S. infrastructure) lack liquidity and distribution, while freely tradable offshored wrapper products often lack substantive ownership rights. The increase is driven largely by a few products (SECZ, FGRS, STRCx) and platforms (Ondo, xStocks, Securitize collectively hold over 85% share). While distributed value across networks like Ethereum, Solana, and BNB Chain has grown, the market remains fragmented. Products referencing the same underlying asset (e.g., Apple stock) are distinct legal liabilities with different intermediaries and jurisdictional rules, offering varying degrees of legal claim. The report cautions that headline numbers are misleading, as they reflect changes in distributed token value—driven by issuance, conversions, and price movements—not pure investor inflows. True "canonical shares" with legal ownership, wide wallet distribution, institutional liquidity, and independent on-chain price discovery do not yet exist at scale. Tokenized treasuries show stronger product-market fit, and ETFs may be easier to scale than single stocks. The core takeaway is a trade-off: legal certainty versus liquidity and composability.
