Tellustra TLUA Protocol Pioneers Verifiable Agricultural Finance in $25 Trillion Market Through Blockchain-Enabled Terroir Tokenization

Published

on

Tellustra (TLUA) launches blockchain protocol for $2.5T agricultural finance market. Creates “Digital DNA” via DePIN sensors to verify terroir, addressing farmers receiving only 15-30% of retail value. Targets Italy’s €7.8B wine, €2B olive oil, €4.5B cheese exports against $50B food fraud. Converts carbon sequestration into tradable assets. 1B token supply, 40% for ecosystem incentives.

Revolutionary DePIN infrastructure addresses systemic inefficiencies as farmers capture mere 15-30% of retail value in global agricultural markets

DENVER, CO – Tellustra (TLUA) today unveiled its comprehensive market strategy to revolutionize agricultural finance through verifiable asset tokenization, directly addressing fundamental disconnects in a global agricultural finance market valued between $1.8 and $2.5 trillion where traditional systems systematically fail to properly value ecological stewardship and product authenticity.

The protocol strategically enters a rapidly evolving market where agricultural supply chain finance demonstrates robust growth at 8-12% annually, yet paradoxically, farmers typically capture only 15-30% of final retail prices while approximately 14% of total food value dissipates between harvest and retail shelves. This systemic inefficiency coincides with an expanding voluntary carbon market that exceeded $2 billion in 2022, presenting unprecedented opportunities for monetizing regenerative agriculture practices that have historically been treated as financial externalities.

Bridging the Temporal Disconnect Between Finance and Nature

“Current agricultural finance operates on a fundamental temporal mismatch that creates massive market inefficiencies,” states Bastien Chevalier, Chief Technology Officer at Tellustra (TLUA). “Financial markets move in milliseconds while nature operates in seasons. Our protocol creates an innovative bridge between these disparate timeframes through continuous, verifiable data streams that transform traditionally static agricultural assets into dynamic, liquid financial instruments suitable for modern markets.”

This temporal alignment represents a paradigm shift in agricultural finance, moving from periodic assessment to continuous valuation based on real-time, verifiable data from the field. The implications extend beyond simple efficiency gains to enable entirely new financial products that were previously impossible without reliable, continuous agricultural data verification.

Strategic Market Entry Through European Agricultural Heritage

Italy’s agricultural sector, comprising over 1.1 million farms with more than 90% classified as small to medium operations, represents Tellustra (TLUA)’s carefully selected genesis market. The nation’s premium agricultural exports – generating €7.8 billion in wine, €2 billion in olive oil, and €4.5 billion in cheese annually – face constant threats from product fraud and counterfeiting estimated to cost the global economy between $30 and $50 billion yearly, with Italian premium products particularly targeted by fraudulent operators.

Small and medium-sized producers often lack administrative resources to navigate complex documentation requirements efficiently. Tellustra (TLUA)’s automated verification system directly addresses this critical friction point, transforming bureaucratic compliance from a months-long administrative burden into streamlined smart contract execution that can be completed in minutes rather than months.

Technology Infrastructure Addressing Fundamental Market Gaps

The agricultural IoT market, currently valued at $15-20 billion with projected annual growth of 10-15%, provides the technological foundation for Tellustra (TLUA)’s innovative Decentralized Physical Infrastructure Network (DePIN). This distributed sensor network generates immutable agricultural data streams, creating what the protocol terms “Digital DNA” – cryptographically secured proof of terroir that eliminates the opacity plaguing current supply chains and enabling unprecedented transparency from soil to consumer.

With blockchain applications in agriculture projected to exceed $1.5 billion by 2028, Tellustra (TLUA) positions itself strategically at the intersection of multiple high-growth vectors: precision agriculture advancement, supply chain transparency requirements, and regenerative finance mechanisms. The protocol’s sophisticated zero-knowledge proof implementation enables producers to verify compliance with quality standards without revealing proprietary information such as exact production volumes or cultivation techniques, addressing a critical barrier that has historically prevented enterprise-level adoption of blockchain solutions in agriculture.

Carbon Market Integration and Regenerative Finance Innovation

Agriculture’s carbon sequestration potential – scientifically estimated at billions of tons annually through improved land management practices – remains largely unmonetized due to verification challenges and the absence of efficient market mechanisms. Traditional carbon credit verification relies on periodic audits and static models that fail to capture the dynamic nature of agricultural carbon sequestration, creating a trust deficit that suppresses market development.

Tellustra (TLUA)’s continuous monitoring infrastructure creates dynamically verified carbon credits backed by real-time data streams, transforming ecological stewardship from an uncompensated externality into a quantifiable, tradable revenue stream. With carbon credit prices ranging from several dollars to over $50 per ton depending on verification standards and co-benefits, the protocol enables premium pricing through superior data integrity and continuous verification that eliminates the trust issues plaguing traditional carbon markets.

Sophisticated Token Economics and Market Mechanics

The Tellustra (TLUA) token, deployed on a scalable blockchain infrastructure with a total supply of 1 billion tokens, serves multiple critical protocol functions: network security through staking mechanisms, decentralized governance participation, service fee payments, and tiered access to premium market features. Forty percent of the total token allocation supports ecosystem development through farmer incentives and network rewards, creating carefully aligned incentives for sustainable, long-term growth rather than short-term speculation.

The protocol implements a systematic buy-back and burn mechanism utilizing protocol-generated fees, creating natural deflationary pressure as network usage expands. This economic model directly ties token value to actual protocol adoption and utility generation rather than speculative trading, establishing a sustainable value accrual mechanism that benefits long-term participants while discouraging short-term speculation.

Phased Expansion Strategy and Long-term Market Potential

Following initial deployment in Italy’s most prestigious agricultural regions – Tuscany for wine and olive oil, Piedmont for wine and truffles, and Emilia-Romagna for cheese production – Tellustra (TLUA) targets systematic expansion into French wine regions and Spanish agricultural zones. This phased approach ensures deep market penetration and proven value delivery before geographic expansion.

The long-term vision encompasses emerging markets where smallholder farmers can leverage verified quality standards to access global premium markets directly, bypassing traditional intermediaries that extract disproportionate value. Industry analysts project the overall real-world asset tokenization market could reach multiple trillions by 2030, with agricultural assets positioned to capture significant market share as verification technology matures.

Technology Implementation and Market Readiness

Tellustra (TLUA) maintains operational excellence through strategic partnerships and robust technical infrastructure, ensuring the protocol meets the highest standards of security and reliability while building toward full decentralization through planned community governance structures.

Risk Disclosure

Participation in the Tellustra (TLUA) ecosystem involves substantial risks including token price volatility, evolving market conditions, and technology implementation challenges inherent in bridging physical and digital systems. This announcement does not constitute investment advice, and potential participants should conduct thorough due diligence.

New Black History Book Tells the Untold Stories of 2000 Family Members Across 400 Pages

Published

on

In My Family Tree Mason and Carey Bloodline, author Stephanie M. Mason blends genealogy and storytelling to preserve voices, memories, and documents from eight generations of her family.

New York, United States, 12th Sep 2025 – Author Stephanie M. Mason is proud to announce the release of her new book, My Family Tree Mason and Carey Bloodline. This remarkable work of Black History is available now on Amazon in both ebook and hardcover editions. The book takes readers on a powerful journey through more than 400 pages, telling the stories of over 2,000 family members and tracing their roots all the way back through slavery.

For more than 20 years, Stephanie dedicated herself to gathering names, documents, memories, and voices from her family. She spent time with relatives in the South, walked through cemeteries, searched old homesteads, and overcame resistance from some who did not understand her work. Despite the challenges, she continued, determined to leave behind a record that would honor the past and inspire the future.

A Unique Approach to Genealogy

Unlike many family history books that list only statistics, My Family Tree Mason and Carey Bloodline brings the past to life through storytelling. Readers will find timelines, official documents, obituaries, living testimonies, and personal messages of love, all woven together to create a narrative that feels alive. Stephanie carefully shows how each generation connects, offering an eight-generation breakdown of the Mason and Carey families.

The book offers something rarely found in general history books: the thoughts, voices, and memories of people who lived through difficult times. It goes beyond names and dates, sharing the wisdom, struggles, and triumphs of ordinary people whose lives were extraordinary.

Stephanie explains, “I wanted to do more than build a tree of names. I wanted to bring out the voices of my ancestors, their hopes, their challenges, and their love. This book is my gift to the next generation, so they will know where they come from and feel proud of their place in history.”

Why This Book Matters

My Family Tree Mason and Carey Bloodline is not just about one family; it is a contribution to Black History as a whole. The book gives a glimpse of how one family’s journey mirrors the wider African American experience, from slavery to survival, and from hardship to resilience. By combining genealogy with storytelling, Stephanie has created a resource that is both personal and universal.

Readers who enjoy family history, memoirs, or Black History studies will find this book deeply moving. It provides evidence of the power of preserving family voices, and it reminds us of how much is lost when stories are forgotten. For students of Black History, it also provides an intimate look at how one family’s story fits into the larger history of America.

About the Author

Stephanie M. Mason has worked as a Dental Assistant for over 30 years and as a Patient Care Technician for the last six years while caring for her mother. She has studied genealogy for more than 20 years, which led her to create this extraordinary record of her family. While attending Wayne County Community College, she discovered her love for writing poetry and expressing her inner world.

Stephanie holds two degrees in health and has professional experience in both dental and medical billing. Her wide-ranging background and lifelong commitment to family research make her uniquely qualified to tell this story. With her book, she has shown that genealogy is not only about research, but also about heart, patience, and persistence.

A Journey for Readers

At over 400 pages, this book is a journey that invites readers to walk alongside Stephanie as she uncovers her family’s story. Much like Roots for a new generation, My Family Tree Mason and Carey Bloodline creates a bridge between the past and the present. Readers will not only learn about names and dates but will feel connected to the people behind them.

Stephanie hopes her book will encourage others to start their own family research and to see genealogy as more than data. “When I look back at the twenty years it took to create this book, I see love, struggle, and persistence. I hope readers will see that preserving family history is worth the effort. Every story matters, and every voice deserves to be heard.”

Availability

My Family Tree Mason and Carey Bloodline is available now on Amazon in both ebook and hardcover formats.

NexMetals Metallurgy Results Create a Potentially Quicker and Cheaper Pathway to Production

Published

on

Following NexMetals’ bulk sample-based metallurgical program at its Selebi Mines in Botswana, the company has created “the optionality to produce both a saleable copper concentrate and a saleable nickel concentrate”.

Canada, 12th Sep 2025– Global Stocks News – Sponsored content disseminated on behalf of NexMetals Mining. On September 3, 2025, NexMetals Mining (TSXV: NEXM) (NASDAQ: NEXM) announced a significant metallurgical break though at its past-producing copper-nickel-cobalt Selebi Mines in Botswana.

NexMetals owns two previously-producing Cu-Ni-Co mines in Botswana, a safe, mineral-rich Tier 1 mining jurisdiction in Africa. 

The underground Selebi Mines were in production between 1980 and 2016. Both Selebi and Selebi North mines, having produced 40 million tonnes of ore, were put into Care & Maintenance due to low metal prices and a failure of the on-site smelter.

Smelters are not cheap to build, refurbish or operate. A planned copper smelter in Kazakhstan has a projected $1.5 billion price tag. The environmental permitting required for smelters can add years, if not decades, to the development process.

Following NexMetals’ bulk sample-based metallurgical program at its Selebi Mines in Botswana, the company has created “the optionality to produce both a saleable copper concentrate and a saleable nickel concentrate”.

September 3, 2025 metallurgical news highlights:

  • on-site smelter may not be required
  • significant reduction in capital expenditure
  • simplified permitting process
  • smaller environmental footprint
  • lower energy costs
  • expanded commercial pathways for mined products
  • more competitive environment for off-take agreements
  • reduction of operational complexity
  • Fewer highly specialised employees required
  • Faster, cheaper, more efficient re-start

“This is the largest transformational step forward for the Selebi Mines that could materially change this asset,” stated NexMetals CEO Morgan Lekstrom in the September 3, 2025 press release. “We now have the optionality to generate two separate saleable copper and nickel-cobalt concentrates, which may reduce or remove the need for capex to build a smelter/ hydrometallurgy plant.”

The underground bulk samples were taken from both the Selebi North and Selebi Main deposits, representing the projected operational profile with both shafts in production. 

Excellent Initial Recoveries with the Objective to Increase Recoveries: 

  • Copper concentrate – 87.0% Cu recovery
  • Nickel concentrate – 55.9% Ni recovery and 64.7% Co recovery

High-Grade Saleable Concentrates:

  • Copper concentrate – 27.6% Cu
  • Nickel concentrate – 10.5% Ni and 0.59% Co

NexGold’s President Sean Whiteford is a geologist and mining executive who has held corporate, operational and technical roles at BHP and Rio Tinto. He has technical and budgetary oversight on the Botswana operations, including exploration and engineering studies.

In the September 3, 2025 6-minute video below, Whiteford explains the metallurgy process, the results and the significance to the Selebi Mine redevelopment plan.

“We have existing underground infrastructure that allows us to access various parts of the resource and blast fresh new samples,” stated Whiteford in the video. “We blasted up to 95 tons from both Selebi Main and Selebi North. The results and the blending give us a statistically robust sampling. That means we have high confidence in our results.”

“A Lock Cycle Test or LCT test is a common process in metallurgical development work. It simulates continuous plant performance, mimicking a closed loop system from a large-scale operational processing plant”.

“Our copper concentrate is 27.6% grade, 87% recovery. We have a grade of 10.5% nickel, and we recovered 55.9% of the nickel in the concentrate. We are working on ways to increase our nickel recovery.  We also have recovered a grade .59% cobalt in the nickel concentrate, and that represents 64.7% of the cobalt in the concentrate.”

“Producing separate saleable concentrates gives NexMetals a strategic advantage because now we have an alternative development option with lower capex, lower OPEX and lower execution risk.”

Recent interest in the Selebi and Selkirk Mines has been catalysed by a surge in demand for critical metals required for the green energy transformation (Solar, EVs).  In the last five years, as demand drivers intensify, the price of copper has increased 92% – from USD $2.36/lb to $4.50/lb.

On March 18, 2025 it was announced that a consortium of institutional investors made sizable early bets on the future of NexMetals assets. The $46 million non-brokered equity financing included the participation of the Fiore Management and Advisory Corporation, headed by Frank Giustra. 

“NexMetals has been reactivated with new money, new talent and new ideas,” Lekstrom told Guy Bennett, CEO of Global Stocks News (GSN).

For the last decade, diamonds have accounted for around 80% of Botswana’s exports, one-third of fiscal revenues, and one-quarter of GDP. Botswana is the world’s largest diamond producer by value. That revenue stream is shrinking.

“The market for natural diamonds is in crisis, with cut-price lab-grown equivalents hitting demand particularly hard in the U.S.,” reports Japan Times (JT) on September 4, 2025.

Copper production provides the most immediate source of economic diversification,” notes Lyle Begbie, an economist at Oxford Economics Africa.

“Buoyed by soaring global demand for energy and electrification projects, Begbie says that copper mining is ‘starting to rise from the ashes again’ in Botswana,” reports African Business.

“We must now focus on job creation,” confirmed Botswana President Duma Boko, who is promoting investment in tourism, renewable energy, technology, agriculture and mining.

“I’ve had the privilege of meeting the new President Duma Boko,” Lekstrom told GSN. “He is a Harvard Law School graduate, a passionate politician and a sharp businessman.”

“President Boko wants to expand Botswana’s extraction industry beyond diamonds,” continued Lekstrom. “We believe the Selebi and Selkirk copper-nickel projects can play a positive role in Botswana’s next economic evolution.” 

Results from the new metallurgical direction announced on September 3, 2025 together with ongoing resource expansion drilling, will be incorporated into an updated mineral resource estimate (MRE), which NEXM anticipates will demonstrate a significant improvement over the previous estimate.

The mineral resource estimate on the Selebi Mine is supported by the technical report entitled “Technical Report, Selebi Mines, Central District, Republic of Botswana” and dated September 20, 2024 (with an effective date of June 30, 2024) (the “Selebi Technical Report“), and prepared by SLR Consulting (Canada) Ltd. for NEXM. Reference should be made to the full text of the Selebi Technical Report, which was prepared in accordance with NI 43-101 and Subpart 1300 of Regulation S-K and is available on SEDAR+ (www.sedarplus.ca) and EDGAR (www.sec.gov), in each case, under NEXM’s issuer profile.

All scientific and technical information in this release has been reviewed and approved by Norman Lotter, P.Eng., Pr.Eng., C.Eng., FSAIMM, FIMM, Consulting Engineer, and by Sharon Taylor, Vice President Exploration of the Company, who are “qualified persons” for the purposes of NI 43-101 a “qualified person” for the purposes of National Instrument 43-101 and Subpart 1300 of Regulation S-K.
