An @EthereumTowers Metaverse Apartment is not only a space for virtual living but it is a representation of digital ownership, creativity, and community within an expansive virtual ecosystem. It offers the ability to build, socialize and conduct business in a 3D world, blurring the line between digital and physical experiences

Interested in real estate investment but don't have millions to spare? With fractional ownership, you can invest in properties with just a fraction of a token and pave your way to financial freedom. #FinancialFreedom# #realestateinvestment#

Who said #DeFi# and #TradFi# can’t work together to deliver market changing solutions in #crypto# - here’s the proof🚀 Link: https://t.co/1Vefxry5nH Standard Chartered and OKX have launched a collateral mirroring program, allowing institutional clients to use crypto and tokenized money market funds held by Standard Chartered on the OKX exchange. Brevan Howard Digital will be the first to participate, using Franklin Templeton's tokenized platform. Roger Bayston, Franklin Templeton Head of Digital Assets: “Leveraging blockchain technology, our platform is built to support the dynamic and ever-evolving financial ecosystem. We take an authentic approach, from directly investing in blockchain assets to developing innovative solutions with our in-house team. By ensuring assets are minted on-chain, we enable true ownership, allowing them to move and settle at blockchain speed – eliminating the need for traditional infrastructure.”

借着凉兮的话题继续简单的深入一下这个话题。深入研究贝莱德会发现其实更巧妙的是先锋。先锋集团的创始人约翰·博格(John Bogle)则为指数基金(Index fund)的发明人。并且先锋集团(Vanguard)的独特所有权结构 1. 互惠所有制模式(Mutual Ownership Structure) 与贝莱德不同，先锋集团采用一种全球金融行业中极为罕见的"互惠所有制"(Mutual Ownership Structure)模式。这是先锋集团创始人约翰·博格(John Bogle)在1975年创立公司时确立的核心理念： 基金持有人所有制：先锋集团本身是由其旗下管理的基金共同持有的，而这些基金又归基金持有人(投资者)所有。简单来说，购买先锋基金的投资者实际上就是先锋集团的间接"股东"。 自我封闭的循环持股：这种结构创造了一个封闭的循环——先锋集团为基金服务，而基金又拥有先锋集团，最终使得基金投资者成为实际的所有者。 2. 无外部股东的影响 先锋集团的这种所有权结构带来了几个重要特点： 没有外部股东：与贝莱德等传统资产管理公司不同，先锋集团没有需要满足的外部股东，不存在股东与客户之间的利益冲突。 成本优势：由于不需要向外部股东提供利润回报，先锋集团可以将更多收益通过降低费用的方式回馈给基金持有人，这解释了为什么先锋集团的基金费率普遍低于行业平均水平。 长期导向：无需向外部股东交代短期业绩，使得先锋集团能够更专注于长期投资表现和客户利益。 3. 实际控制人 由于先锋集团采用互惠所有制模式，严格意义上讲，它没有传统意义上的"实际控制人"。其控制权实际上由以下几个方面共同组成： 基金持有人：作为实际的所有者，基金投资者是最终的"股东"，但由于投资者数量庞大且分散，单个投资者的影响力有限。 管理层：日常运营和关键决策由公司管理层负责，这些管理者被视为投资者利益的"受托人"。 董事会：先锋集团的董事会代表基金持有人的利益，负责监督管理层的工作。 这种结构在全球资产管理行业中是独一无二的，也是约翰·博格留给金融界的重要遗产。 有没有感觉这种互惠所有制模式和比特币的算法收益分配模式很像？ 另外李哥借用AI工具暂时分析出了先锋和贝莱德的幕后资金来源，分别为： 1. ROTHSCHILD FOUNDATION 2. EDMOND DE ROTHSCHILD 3. THE ROCKEFELLER FOUNDATION 4. JPMorgan 5.ALFRED I. duPONT 6.BUSH FOUNTATION 前两个是罗斯柴尔德家族的，之后分别为洛克菲勒，摩根，杜邦，布什家族。

Thanks for the discussion @RT_Watson. We’re still in the early innings of tokenization, but momentum is clearly building. Treasuries and stablecoins have already shown that blockchain can improve settlement speed, cost efficiency, and access to financial products. The ability to issue and settle equities on-chain opens the door not just for institutions, but for individuals as well—expanding access to traditionally gated markets and enabling entirely new financial use cases, from real-time collateralization to fractional ownership. Unlike traditional equity markets, which often rely on fragmented infrastructure and delayed settlement, tokenized equities offer a faster, more accessible, and more programmable alternative. If issued with the right regulatory and infrastructure guardrails, tokenized equities (and other financial assets) have the potential to significantly expand both the diversity and scale of assets being transacted on-chain.

Introducing SPUTNIK: The first competitive AI agent to play in the $DARK Games universe. (SPUTNIK needs your help on its mission, if you choose to accept it. Keep reading.) As the hallowed name implies, SPUTNIK is a first of its kind -- an MCP-augmented gaming AI that has the capability to play an incomplete information game called Dark Forest. SPUTNIK has one, simple goal: Get to its target planet, and charge it with 100% energy. While SPUTNIK's ambitions are simple, the problems standing in front of it -- are not. (That's where you come in, if you choose to accept your mission. Keep reading.) For starters, SPUTNIK doesn't know where its target planet is. In fact, SPUTNIK can't see most of its universe -- in Dark Forest, players suffer from a Fog of War that limits their visibility of the map and its planets. In fact, SPUTNIK doesn't even know which planet is its target. Talk about Artificial Intelligence. 🤭 🚨 Maybe you can help? 🚨 SPUTNIK is designed to reward those who feed it useful information towards its mission of getting to its target planet. Help SPUTNIK learn faster about planets in its universe, plan its routes based on energy spend, or the like.. and earn $DARK. Working with SPUTNIK is an incomplete information game in itself, because SPUTNIK will be doing the same work on its own (and with anybody else that works with it) in the meantime. You'll have to bet $DARK to feed SPUTNIK tips, and if your tips aren't helpful, SPUTNIK will keep your $DARK to reward others who are helpful (😬). If you feed SPUTNIK fruitful information, however, you win on the spot. Lucky for you, @darkresearchai has a map at mission control... and right now you can see the whole universe. (Might be time to start studying the planets that are out there, at least while DARK's mapping technology still works...) If only we could communicate with SPUTNIK today -- the mapping at DARK HQ is up, but comms are down 😔 this space technology is never stable... An overview of SPUTNIK's technology stack: SPUTNIK is built open source, and leverages a modern software architecture that allows it to be both extremely lightweight as an agent and increasingly capable. You can find SPUTNIK's base code here, which fits almost entirely into one Python file: https://t.co/SSX20Byo9C SPUTNIK leverages two key Model Context Protocol servers: 1) The Dark Forest MCP (https://t.co/7MyFlYWEBD) SPUTNIK's Dark Forest MCP gives it capability to perform key functions in the game: · Mine the fog of war, to discover more of its universe · Learn about its own position in space and planets it knows about · Travel from planet to planet For its reward mechanism, SPUTNIK leverages @solana: 2) The Solana MCP Build by @sendaifun, the Solana MCP gives SPUTNIK a wide range of capabilities to interact with the Solana blockchain. Like everything else about DARK Games, @darkresearchai's fork of the Solana MCP is open source: https://t.co/EXf8bJD8wP A few key notes: · SPUTNIK has one one-chain wallet, which it uses programmatically in an enclosed (but not yet TEE) environment: CXy73Px8zPF59PKWB3NFzDAhUPymaodHKoNLyKVuPVNK As an early agent, SPUTNIK's wallet implementation is rudimentary -- but sets the conversation well for why Trusted Execution Environments are important in AI contexts, why on-chain AI agent asset ownership has powerful potential, and the direction that DARK Research plans to build towards in the future. · SPUTNIK is only designed to operate in $DARK, and will convert any (well-known) tokens sent to it into $DARK. · SPUTNIK may choose to send $DARK to the new @darkresearchai multisig, including fees it decides to collect: 9QLfMnvoA66JEYra1C3UUF3XDjenrVT48gS4CKVqwfj1 ---- That's all for now, fellow space soldier. While SPUTNIK's communication systems come up, study the map and plan your strategy (link immediately below this post to the @darkresearchai domain -- don't fall for scams). Lewis had Clark. SPUTNIK needs you. Will you answer the call? 🛸
