Stuttgart, Germany and Lausanne, Switzerland – 06 June 2023 —

Assets of all kinds are becoming fully or partially digital, with approximately five to ten percent of all assets expected to be represented on distributed ledgers by 2030 – be it non-fungible tokens (NFTs), digital currencies, digital securities or tokenized supply chain items. Companies now have access to a cost-effective and seamless path towards highly customizable, enterprise-secure, and efficient digital asset custody and tokenization solutions.

The reason: In a new partnership, Metaco and GFT (GFT-XE) are joining forces to combine Metaco’s highly secure, configurable and versatile core platform for institutional digital asset management, Harmonize™ with GFT’s award-winning smart contract, DLT network development and integration services. Together the two companies provide integrated digital asset solutions that are suitable for all kinds of companies operating across regulated and non-regulated industries, including financial services institutions, retailers, and manufacturing companies. They can now embed digital assets into their operations, such as corporate treasuries. Not only that: they can design customized offerings in the digital asset space while still retaining full control over assets and processes.

“No business, no matter in what industry, will be successful in the long run if it doesn’t leverage the potential of distributed ledger technology,”

says David Creer, Global DLT, Crypto and E-money Lead at GFT.

“But there still are challenges – among them making sure that custody solutions are a perfect fit for any given use case, that wallet management and associated systems are safe, and keeping costs down. We aim to change that.”

Safe, cost-effective and fully customizable

The integrated solutions from GFT and Metaco are extremely cost-effective because Metaco Harmonize™ is a highly specialized and modular platform which can be configured to offer tailored digital asset custody and tokenization services, fit for each institution’s target operating model. Its asset-agnostic nature ensures that many different digital asset classes are supported in an extremely secure way, thanks to Metaco’s multi-layered security architecture model, underpinned by a highly parameterizable governance framework which eliminates single points of compromise. GFT’s many years of experience working on DLT and crypto projects, meanwhile, make sure implementation is smooth and swift.

Companies gain:

  • The safest crypto custody deployment in the market
  • Expert 24/7 support based on enterprise grade SLAs
  • Increased customer satisfaction
  • Faster systems integration of crypto custody software
  • Technical and functional analysis of DLT projects that can be implemented end-to-end in the way that fits the business
  • Security by design approach to digital asset deployments

“This partnership makes it easy for companies to unlock the benefits of the token economy and build business models on top of robust and secure digital asset custody and smart contract management services.”

commented Seamus Donoghue, Chief Growth Officer at Metaco.

The joint offering from Metaco and GFT is designed to help companies get started on their digital asset journey, enhance their offering and boost their competitiveness. The offering is designed for any type of company in any stage of development; from crypto focused startups, to existing digital asset custodians or incumbent banks and corporates.

GFT and Metaco have already successfully cooperated for several clients including Togg, VP Bank and other regulated financial service institutions.

⚠️ The entire cross-chain bridge & CEX model is built on a flawed premise ⚠️

The entire cross-chain bridge & CEX model is built on a flawed premise: custodial trust. This is a bug, not a feature.
​What if you could execute a native BTC <> native SOL (or ETH, USDC, USDT, XRP, RWAs, tokenized assers, etc.) swap with zero counterparty risk? No bridge, no CEX, no wrapped assets, not even a DEX!

​This video breaks down the P2P atomic swap architecture that makes it possible. (Thread 👇)

🚨STUDY: "Millions Saved" COVID Shot Myth OBLITERATED

Peer-reviewed analysis exposes how the vaccine cartel propped up its fraudulent talking point — “millions of lives saved” — with computer models, false assumptions, and censorship ⬇️

Step 1 — The Modeling Scam:
“Millions saved” came from computer models, not real data. Watson (Lancet), Meslé (Eurosurveillance), and a Commonwealth Fund blog stacked assumptions, ignored natural immunity, and excluded harms. Political projections, not science.

Step 2 — The ‘Stop the Spread’ Lie:
Those models only worked because they assumed shots blocked infection chains. But COVID shots never prevented infection or transmission. Breakthroughs appeared within weeks, and by 2022 the boosted were driving waves. Core input = false.

Step 3 — Zero Proof of Deaths Prevented:
When transmission collapsed, the cartel claimed shots still prevented millions of deaths. Yet RCTs showed no mortality benefit (Pfizer: 15 vs. 14 deaths), observational ...

The Great Onboarding: US Government Anchors Global Economy into Web3 via Pyth Network

For years, the crypto world speculated that the next major cycle would be driven by institutional adoption, with Wall Street finally legitimizing Bitcoin through vehicles like ETFs. While that prediction has indeed materialized, a recent development signifies a far more profound integration of Web3 into the global economic fabric, moving beyond mere financial products to the very infrastructure of data itself. The U.S. government has taken a monumental step, cementing Web3's role as a foundational layer for modern data distribution. This door, once opened, is poised to remain so indefinitely.

The U.S. Department of Commerce has officially partnered with leading blockchain oracle providers, Pyth Network and Chainlink, to distribute critical official economic data directly on-chain. This initiative marks a historic shift, bringing immutable, transparent, and auditable data from the federal government itself onto decentralized networks. This is not just a technological upgrade; it's a strategic move to enhance data accuracy, transparency, and accessibility for a global audience.

Specifically, Pyth Network has been selected to publish Gross Domestic Product (GDP) data, starting with quarterly releases going back five years, with plans to expand to a broader range of economic datasets. Chainlink, the other key partner, will provide data feeds from the Bureau of Economic Analysis (BEA), including Real Gross Domestic Product (GDP) and the Personal Consumption Expenditures (PCE) Price Index. This crucial economic information will be made available across a multitude of blockchain networks, including major ecosystems like Ethereum, Avalanche, Base, Bitcoin, Solana, Tron, Stellar, Arbitrum One, Polygon PoS, and Optimism.

This development is closer to science fiction than traditional finance. The same oracle network, Pyth, that secures data for over 350 decentralized applications (dApps) across more than 50 blockchains, processing over $2.5 trillion in total trading volume through its oracles, is now the system of record for the United States' core economic indicators. Pyth's extensive infrastructure, spanning over 107 blockchains and supporting more than 600 applications, positions it as a trusted source for on-chain data. This is not about speculative assets; it's about leveraging proven, robust technology for critical public services.

The significance of this collaboration cannot be overstated. By bringing official statistics on-chain, the U.S. government is embracing cryptographic verifiability and immutable publication, setting a new precedent for how governments interact with decentralized technology. This initiative aligns with broader transparency goals and is supported by Secretary of Commerce Howard Lutnick, positioning the U.S. as a world leader in finance and blockchain innovation. The decision by a federal entity to trust decentralized oracles with sensitive economic data underscores the growing institutional confidence in these networks.

This is the cycle of the great onboarding. The distinction between "Web2" and "Web3" is rapidly becoming obsolete. When government data, institutional flows, and grassroots builders all operate on the same decentralized rails, we are simply talking about the internet—a new iteration, yes, but the internet nonetheless: an immutable internet where data is not only published but also verified and distributed in real-time.

Pyth Network stands as tangible proof that this technology serves a vital purpose. It demonstrates that the industry has moved beyond abstract "crypto tech" to offering solutions that address real-world needs and are now actively sought after and understood by traditional entities. Most importantly, it proves that Web3 is no longer seeking permission; it has received the highest validation a system can receive—the trust of governments and markets alike.

This is not merely a fleeting trend; it's a crowning moment in global adoption. The U.S. government has just validated what many in the Web3 space have been building towards for years: that Web3 is not a sideshow, but a foundational layer for the future. The current cycle will be remembered as the moment the world definitively crossed this threshold, marking the last great opportunity to truly say, "we were early."

US Dept of Commerce to publish GDP data on blockchain

On Tuesday during a televised White House cabinet meeting, Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick announced the intention to publish GDP statistics on blockchains. Today Chainlink and Pyth said they were selected as the decentralized oracles to distribute the data.

Lutnick said, “The Department of Commerce is going to start issuing its statistics on the blockchain because you are the crypto President. And we are going to put out GDP on the blockchain, so people can use the blockchain for data distribution. And then we’re going to make that available to the entire government. So, all of you can do it. We’re just ironing out all the details.”

The data includes Real GDP and the PCE Price Index, which reflects changes in the prices of domestic consumer goods and services. The statistics are released monthly and quarterly. The biggest initial use will likely be by on-chain prediction markets. But as more data comes online, such as broader inflation data or interest rates from the Federal Reserve, it could be used to automate various financial instruments. Apart from using the data in smart contracts, sources of tamperproof data 👉will become increasingly important for generative AI.

While it would be possible to procure the data from third parties, it is always ideal to get it from the source to ensure its accuracy. Getting data directly from government sources makes it tamperproof, provided the original data feed has not been manipulated before it reaches the oracle.

List Of Cardano Wallets

Well-known and actively maintained wallets supporting the Cardano Blockchain are EternlTyphonVesprYoroiLaceADAliteNuFiDaedalusGeroLodeWalletCoin WalletADAWalletAtomicGem WalletTrust and Exodus.

Note that in case of issues, usually only queries relating to official wallets can be answered in Cardano groups across telegram/forum. You may need to consult with specific wallet support teams for third party wallets.

Tips

  • Its is important to ensure that you're in sole control of your wallet keys, and that the keys used can be restored via alternate wallet providers if a particular one is non-functional. Hence, put extra attention to Non-Custodial and Compatibility fields.
  • The score column below is strictly a count of checks against each feature listed, the impact of specific feature (and thus, score) is up to reader's descretion.
  • The table represents current state on mainnet network, any future roadmap activities are out-of-scope.
  • Info on individual fields can be found towards the end of the page.
  • Any field that shows partial support (eg: open-source field) does not score the point for that field.

Brief info on fields above

  • Non-Custodial: are wallets where payment as well as stake keys are not shared/reused by wallet provider, and funds can be transparently verified on explorer
  • Compatibility: If the wallet mnemonics/keys can easily (for non-technical user) be used outside of specific wallet provider in major other wallets
  • Stake Control: Freedom to elect stake pool for user to delegate to (in user-friendly way)
  • Transparent Support: Easy approachability of a public interactive - eg: discord/telegram - group (with non-anonymous users) who can help out with support. Twitter/Email supports do not count for a check
  • Voting: Ability to participate in Catalyst voting process
  • Hardware Wallet: Integration with atleast Ledger Nano device
  • Native Assets: Ability to view native assets that belong to wallet
  • dApp Integration: Ability to interact with dApps
  • Stability: represents whether there have been large number of users reporting missing tokens/balance due to wallet backend being out of sync
  • Testnets Support: Ability to easily (for end-user) open wallets in atleast one of the cardano testnet networks
  • Custom Backend Support: Ability to elect a custom backend URL for selecting alternate way to submit transactions transactions created on client machines
  • Single/Multi Address Mode: Ability to use/import Single as well as Multiple Address modes for a wallet
  • Mobile App: Availability on atleast one of the popular mobile platforms
  • Desktop (app,extension,web): Ways to open wallet app on desktop PCs
  • Open Source: Whether the complete wallet (all components) are open source and can be run independently.
