TRUST not TECH & WHY EUROPE LEADS

  In the Tokenised Economy, Trust May Be Europe’s Greatest Export July 19, 2026 By  Eric Piscini As tokenization matures, Europe’s governance and regulatory strengths become its competitive advantage. This is because trust, not technological prowess, will determine who captures the market. Banks, asset managers, and governments are exploring tokenized assets at scale. However, as the technology matures, many commentators are still getting the debate wrong. Too often the focus is on the speed of blockchains rather than the trusted infrastructure that underpins them. The jurisdictions that combine innovation with legal certainty , robust governance , and institutional credibility will be best placed to shape the next generation of global capital markets. Most conversations about tokenization used to start with the same nervous question:  will this actually work?  Engineers have answered that one. Settlement that took days now takes minutes, fractional ownership t...

POST QUANTUM DLT JOY ATTRACTS JOY

EMBRACE ONE INFINITE PARADOX  Post-quantum isn’t new, but even the experts don’t know what ‘ resistance ’ will actually entail. As the industry confronts what post-quantum means for security, the real challenge becomes clear: How do you design systems that evolve without breaking? At Hedera DevDay 2026 , Dr. @LeemonBaird and @sinharo, Head of Cryptography at @ hashgraph sat down in a πŸ”₯fireside chat to unpack: ✅The cryptographic foundations behind hashgraph ✅What quantum resilience means in real systems ✅Why Hedera is post-quantum secure for hashing and encryption ✅The role of TSS in strengthening network security and verifiability ✅How dual-signing supports a safe transition to post-quantum security The real story is not “fully quantum-proof,” but how DLT platforms like Hedera are approaching post-quantum as it relates to security, upgradeability , and long-term trust.

You have your finger on the pulse of the financial services industry.  What do you think are going to be the biggest industry trends for 2025? The impact of the Australian and global economy on the financial services sector is always on our radar. Of course Donald Trump’s US Presidency is going to have a big impact on the financial services markets, and we’re already starting to see that reverberate through the stock market, and also digital assets/cryptocurrencies. In 2025 we’re also going to see some major reforms around how Australia is going to regulate the digital assets sector, including cryptocurrency. We’re also going to see reforms on payments, because that has become an important and growing segment within the financial services industry in Australia. We don’t use much cash in Australia anymore, and people are looking for alternative ways of paying. What we’re finding is there are lots of different payment solutions coming into the market – and that’s an area that’s rip...

Is Our Government Innovating and Leading? Or Following and Reacting?

by James Riley  via INNOVATION Australia (James is an old school reporter who actually dives deep and seeks deep, NOTHING art eee fish all...at all)  And Andrew Charlton, who is quoted often in the below article, is a Polly (NOT a cracker...) who KNOWS his DLT stuff, has lived HIS economic stuff and is extremely WELL versed, qualified and EXPERIENCED in DIGITAL INNOVATION that is there already here right now, for HUMAN learning to be further UNLOCKED. The bigger picture for our kids being born NOW (and those "kids" up to age 25, now) is that all this "DIGITAL ECONOMY/DLT/AI" right NOW, is where enormous LEARNING opportunity is already GLOBAL. Australia CANNOT afford to dilly dally for our KIDS sake, not us oldies over the age of 30... and set in their routine tertiary certified coin for life ways...  ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ "The Prime Minister’s special envoy for cybersecurity and digital resilience Andrew Ch...

David Shapiro On DLT and Innovation

"Let me break this down for you, because what we're seeing with Trump's crypto deregulation plan isn't just another policy shift – it's the beginning of an economic renaissance. And believe me, I've seen enough technological revolutions to know one when I see it. Look at what's happening: The incoming administration isn't just tweaking a few rules – they're completely reimagining how we handle digital assets. According to the news, they're planning to dismantle SAB 121, streamline federal oversight, and bring in Paul Atkins to chair the SEC. This is exactly what the industry has been waiting for. But here's the bigger picture that most people are missing:  Throughout history, every single time a society has tried to strangle technological innovation, they've signed their own death warrant. Rome did it. Ethiopia did it. Russia's doing it right now, and the EU is making the same mistake with their MiCA regulations. They're all fol...
