So we'll keep quietly building and point out that building trillion-dollar AI infrastructure on decades-old capital and flow infra does NOT work. With ReserveNet, on @WatrProtocol X @avax we're building programmable capital infrastructure for commodities and their financing:

The most important innovations becomes obvious when the market catches on. Why @avax is the home for commodities and our partners at @WatrProtocol.
Zoom out. Privacy isn’t just a meta. As a bald guy once said, crypto without privacy is not crypto. We agree. Avalanche has built for privacy since inception. While we may be making this post to hop on a trend, the reality is the industry is just catching up. Proof: •

It's a good day to be where we are 😎 bridging a $3 trillion gap 👇 - Digital assets: $4T market seeking credible RWA yield. - Commodity producers and traders: looking for $3T of capital. 💡The infrastructure exists. The capital exists. What's necessary? Coordinated, vetted

When TradFi heralds the dawn of DeFi and RWAs 👇
This is interesting: Standard Chartered predicts that the “trustless” architecture of DeFi will challenge the traditional dominance of centralized financial (TradFi) institutions - with RWAs rising to $2 trillion by 2028 - a 56x on today's RWA market. This is coming from one of

If you're sitting on capital and want access to commodity flows beyond what traditional markets offer, or you're a commodity trader curious about how to safely participate in onchain markets, let's talk. At Neo, we're working with Watr to bridge this gap: For Capital

Digital assets are booming and RWAs are the holy grail. We are bridging digital assets with the mother of all RWAs: oil, rare earth metals and the commodities that build our economy. Global commodity trade moves $20T+ annually, yet it runs on systems designed decades ago.
