Inside the rise of institutional tokenization: key insights from Brickken’s AMA

Sponsored Content: Brickken CEO Edwin Mata discussed the institutional adoption of tokenization, tracing its evolution from theoretical concept to practical deployment. Originating from a legal background, Mata's deep dive into blockchain revealed the potential of open ledgers for instant, global value transfer. This led to Brickken's founding, starting with security token offerings. Regulatory acceptance from Spain's securities regulator was a key turning point, enabling expansion to public chains. Brickken's platform now supports over $300M in tokenized assets across 16 countries and 100+ institutional clients. Demand is driven by market forces, with institutions seeking operational efficiency, faster settlement, and cross-border reach in areas like commodities, credit, and real estate. Tokenization is viewed as a functional upgrade, with adoption dictated by capital allocation and practical use cases.

Taylor Swift cheers on Travis Kelce in Miu Miu as the Chiefs take on the Texans

Taylor Swift attended the Kansas City Chiefs game against the Houston Texans at Arrowhead Stadium, joined by friends Selena Gomez and Lena Dunham. Leonardo DiCaprio was also in the suite. Swift wore a holiday-ready houndstooth Miu Miu jacket, likely with red underneath to show team spirit. Despite the Chiefs' loss, the group enjoyed the game. This was Gomez's first Chiefs game of the season. Swift was last seen at Arrowhead two weeks prior when the Chiefs won. After that game, she dined with fiancé Travis Kelce at his restaurant, wearing a team-colored cashmere polo. This marks Swift's third NFL season as a WAG and her first as a fiancée. She has been more discreet this season, avoiding the typical tunnel walk.

Tether's USDt awarded key regulatory status in Abu Dhabi

Tether's USDt, the largest stablecoin by circulation, has been formally recognized as an "accepted fiat-referenced token" by the Abu Dhabi Global Market (ADGM). This regulatory milestone allows licensed financial institutions in the international financial center to offer regulated services involving USDt, including trading, custody, and cross-border settlements. The move reinforces Abu Dhabi's position as a key hub for digital assets, with its clear regulatory framework attracting major industry players. The approval follows a recent similar designation for Ripple's RLUSD stablecoin and coincides with plans by a local consortium to launch a dirham-pegged stablecoin.

Why Grayscale thinks Bitcoin will ignore the 4-year cycle this time

Grayscale argues that Bitcoin's traditional four-year cycle, historically driven by halving-induced supply shocks and retail speculation, is losing its dominance. Key reasons include the diminishing relative impact of each halving as more supply enters circulation and a fundamental market shift toward institutional capital from ETFs, corporations, and professional funds. This new dynamic, supported by Glassnode data, results in more controlled price appreciation, lower volatility, and corrections that resemble typical bull-market pullbacks rather than cycle-ending crashes. Furthermore, Bitcoin's price is now more sensitive to macroeconomic factors like interest rates, regulatory developments, and global liquidity than to its internal halving calendar. While some analysts still see merit in the cycle due to Bitcoin's fixed issuance, Grayscale emphasizes that structural changes are creating a more mature, macro-linked asset.

Moca Network Launches MocaProof Beta, the Digital Identity Verification and Reward Platform

Moca Network, a flagship project of Animoca Brands, has launched the beta version of MocaProof—a gamified digital identity verification and reward platform. It uses blockchain to enhance data privacy and self-sovereignty by allowing users to prove credentials without revealing raw data. Integrated with Moca Network’s AIR Kit and Moca Chain, the platform supports zero-knowledge proofs, decentralized storage, and single sign-on. Users can verify credentials across categories like influence, finance, and loyalty in a marketplace backed by verified partners. A virtual companion called Mocat visualizes user credentials and evolves as more are verified, unlocking rewards based on rarity. The platform also includes an incentive system where verified users can earn MOCA Coin, partner airdrops, and loyalty points. The beta is live on Moca Chain Testnet, with a mainnet transition planned for 2026. A launch campaign featuring NFT credentials includes a $50,000 reward pool.

SemiLiquid Unveils Programmable Credit Protocol, Built with Avalanche, Advancing Institutional Credit on Tokenised Collateral

SemiLiquid has launched its Programmable Credit Protocol (PCP) at Abu Dhabi Finance Week 2025, a custody-native infrastructure enabling institutions to access credit using digital and tokenized assets as collateral without transferring them. This breakthrough, developed in Abu Dhabi and backed by a successful pilot with partners including Franklin Templeton, Zodia Custody, and Avalanche, demonstrates enforceable bilateral credit within digital asset custody. The pilot used Franklin Templeton’s tokenized fund BENJI as collateral, allowing yield retention while eliminating counterparty risk. PCP merges traditional finance trust with programmable asset efficiency, addressing legacy inefficiencies in institutional credit. SemiLiquid plans a global rollout and Phase II expansion in early 2026.

Behind Bitcoin's Trillion-Dollar Market Cap: A 41-Person Development Team and a Fragile Funding Ecosystem

Bitcoin, with a peak market cap of $2.5 trillion, is maintained by only 41 core developers, supported by a fragile funding ecosystem of approximately $8.4 million annually. This decentralized development model relies on a small group of sponsors and donors, including organizations like Blockstream, Chaincode Labs, MIT DCI, Spiral, and OKX, among others. Despite Bitcoin’s massive valuation, its core development is highly centralized in Western countries, with 71% of code contributions coming from just 15 developers. Key challenges include over-reliance on a few donors—such as Jack Dorsey—funding instability during market downturns, and a significant lack of representation from Asian developers. The report calls for greater support from profitable crypto businesses to ensure sustainable development and broader geographical participation in maintaining the Bitcoin network.
