Trakx On-Chain via Canton Network: CTIs Live and Multi-Asset Tokenization in Progress

Published

5 months ago

on

Paris, France, 25th Feb 2026 – Trakx announced that its crypto index funds (Crypto Tradable Indices) are now live on-chain on the Canton Network, enabling the tokenization and issuance of regulated financial products within an institutional-grade blockchain environment.

The deployment marks the start of a broader infrastructure expansion in which Trakx moves beyond exchange-based index products to support tokenized financial strategies, beginning with its own CTIs and expanding toward additional asset classes under compliant regulatory frameworks.

Financial Product Tokenization: CTIs Now Issued On-Chain

With the launch on Canton, Trakx can now tokenize and issue products – including its Crypto Tradable Indices – directly on blockchain infrastructure designed for regulated participants and privacy-preserving financial workflows.

CTIs can now be issued, transferred, and redeemed on-chain while remaining compatible with partner systems operating within the Canton ecosystem.

This milestone follows the activation of Trakx’s proprietary Canton node, allowing the company to operate directly within the network and participate in its ecosystem while issuing tokenized strategy instruments.

Rather than existing solely as exchange-tradable index products, CTIs can now function as tokenized financial exposures embedded into partner platforms, structured products, or investment applications.

Initial Rollout: B2B & B2B2C Distribution Model

The on-chain deployment begins with a B2B and B2B2C phase focused on institutional and infrastructure partners building on Canton. The company selected the Canton network for its unique ability to combine public blockchain infrastructure with the privacy requirements of regulated financial institutions. This is fully aligned with Trakx’s core business of working with reputable institutional partners.

Eligible partners include:

  • Asset managers
  • Wealth platforms
  • Banks
  • Brokers
  • Exchanges
  • Tokenization platforms
  • Custodians
  • Financial infrastructure providers

Through this model, partners can integrate tokenized Crypto Tradable Indices and financial assets directly into their own products and distribution channels, enabling end-user access without relying on a single centralized distribution point.

This multi-channel distribution framework supports broader ecosystem adoption while aligning with institutional compliance and operational standards.

Beyond crypto: Expanding toward multi-asset tokenization

While CTIs represent the first product line to be tokenized, Trakx’s infrastructure is not limited to crypto strategies.

The company has indicated that it is actively developing additional compliant frameworks to support the tokenization of financial products across various asset classes.

In practical terms, this means Trakx intends to enable:

  • Tokenized structured strategies
  • Multi-asset portfolio exposures
  • Real-world asset (RWA) representations
  • Strategy wrappers linked to traditional financial instruments

All expansions are subject to appropriate regulatory structuring, jurisdictional compliance, and partner-specific requirements.

What began as crypto index infrastructure is evolving into a broader issuance and distribution layer for tokenized financial strategies, with future capabilities extending across asset classes.

Market implications: From product tokenization to infrastructure layer

The deployment signals a shift in how investment strategies may be represented and distributed. Rather than tokenizing individual assets in isolation, Trakx is positioning strategy tokenization – the representation of managed exposure – as a core building block for institutional distribution.

Key implications include:

  • Institutions embedding programmable strategy exposure directly into financial applications
  • Enhanced interoperability across permissioned financial systems
  • More efficient issuance and lifecycle management of strategy exposures
  • A clearer separation between product design (partner-controlled) and issuance infrastructure (Trakx-enabled)

This layered model allows partners to retain control over distribution, compliance setup, and client relationships, while Trakx provides the underlying tokenized issuance framework.

Next steps

In the near term, Trakx will prioritize onboarding institutional partners within the Canton ecosystem. 

As integrations expand, the company plans to progressively extend on-chain access to its broader user base.

More broadly, the milestone represents the beginning of a new strategic phase: enabling financial products and diverse asset classes to be tokenized, issued, and distributed through interoperable blockchain infrastructure.

Ebene, Mauritius, August 7th, 2026, FinanceWire

PU Prime has launched XAUUSD247, a new offering that enables clients to trade gold 24 hours a day, seven days a week on MT5. Gold remains one of the world’s most actively traded safe-haven assets, with prices responding rapidly to geopolitical events, central bank policies, inflation expectations, and shifts in investor sentiment.

Earlier this year, gold surged to nearly US$5,600 per ounce in January as investors flocked to safe-haven assets amid escalating tensions in the Middle East. While prices have since retreated from their peak, the World Gold Council’s research notes that gold remains one of the top-performing assets over the past year.

“Gold CFDs have consistently been among the most actively traded products on the PU Prime platform,” said Daniel Bruce, Managing Director at PU Prime. “With many factors continuing to influence prices at all times of the day, traders increasingly expect flexibility to react whenever opportunities arise. The launch of XAUUSD247 enables clients to trade gold CFDs 24 hours a day, seven days a week, giving them uninterrupted access to this precious metal.”

The introduction of XAUUSD247 allows traders to access the gold market 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, providing greater flexibility beyond conventional trading hours. As financial markets increasingly operate around the clock, PU Prime remains focused on delivering trading solutions that provide clients with greater flexibility, convenience and access to global opportunities.

STARCARES Revamps Basketball Court at the University of Lagos for Future Healthcare Professionals

Published

Dubai, UAE, August 7th, 2026, FinanceWire

The revitalised basketball court gives approximately 2,000 future healthcare professionals a dedicated space to recharge, connect, and build community activities beyond their academic training.

STARCARES, the community impact initiative of STARTRADER, has completed the redevelopment of the basketball court at the College of Medicine, University of Lagos, giving approximately 2,000 students a dedicated space for recreation, teamwork, and campus connection beyond their medical training.

Located in Idi-Araba, Surulere, the College has 1,850 staff across 32 departments. Since welcoming its first 28 medical students in 1962, it has grown into a highly competitive institution for training doctors, dentists, and allied health professionals.

The redevelopment introduced a renewed playing surface, basketball infrastructure, benches, jerseys, and equipment designed to support regular student use. More than a sports upgrade, the court provides a practical outlet from the demands of medical education, giving students a place to move, reset, compete, and connect as a community.

“When an institution prepares people to safeguard a nation’s health, their environment should sustain them. This court reflects our belief that ambition grows stronger when people have space to breathe, belong, and return to their goals renewed.” Peter Karsten, Chief Executive Officer, STARTRADER

The transformation was marked by groundbreaking and turnover ceremonies, with students stepping onto the completed court and bringing the new space into immediate use.

Developed under the theme “Where Tomorrow STARs Begin,” the initiative reflects STARCARES’ commitment to creating infrastructure intended to support communities beyond the ceremony. By transforming existing spaces into places of participation and possibility, STARCARES is investing not only in facilities, but in the everyday experiences that help communities thrive.

Omar Messado Releases Free Leadership Self-Audit to Help People Build Stronger Careers

Published

25 minutes ago

on

August 7, 2026

By

New York, USA, Aug 07, 2026, ZEX PR WIRE — Procurement professional and leadership advocate Omar Messado has announced the release of a free Leadership Self-Audit Checklist, a practical resource that helps people assess how they communicate, solve problems, build trust, and support others at work. The guide is designed for anyone looking to become a stronger leader, regardless of job title or industry.

After decades leading procurement teams and complex infrastructure projects for organizations including Metro-North Railroad, Kawasaki Rail Car and the Metropolitan Transportation Authority (MTA), Messado believes leadership begins with self-awareness rather than authority.

“Success is not just about career growth,” said Messado. “It is about the many people you have impacted positively and how they continue to grow because you helped, supported, guided or educated them.”

The checklist encourages users to reflect on everyday behaviours that influence long-term success, including communication, planning, accountability, mentorship, and decision-making.

According to Gallup, only 23% of employees strongly agree that their leaders communicate effectively, while employees who feel recognized are 45% less likely to leave their jobs, according to research from Gallup and Workhuman. Meanwhile, LinkedIn’s Workplace Learning Report found that 94% of employees say they would stay longer at a company that invests in their development, and Gallup estimates that low employee engagement costs the global economy approximately US$8.9 trillion each year, demonstrating the far-reaching impact of ineffective leadership.

Messado says improving leadership starts with simple daily habits.

“Be a leader that is open to learning from others, especially those you supervise,” he said. “Give credit and recognition to those who deserve it.”

The resource also reflects one of the most important lessons Messado learned from his longtime mentor, Gennaro “Gene” Sansone.

“Say what you mean and mean what you say,” Messado said. “Integrity builds trust, and trust creates stronger teams.”

Throughout his career, Messado has been known for solving difficult procurement challenges through collaboration rather than conflict. One example came while managing a complex contract at Kawasaki Rail Car. Instead of pursuing an expensive contractual payment, he proposed an alternative solution that provided valuable deliverables to the client while allowing both organizations to reach a fair agreement.

“There is always a way to resolve things,” he said. “It does not need to be dramatic nor destructive.”

Use This in 15 Minutes

The Leadership Self-Audit Checklist can be completed in approximately 15 minutes by:

  • Rating yourself across ten leadership behaviours.

  • Identifying your three strongest leadership habits.

  • Highlighting three areas that need improvement.

  • Choosing one practical action to complete this week.

  • Reviewing your progress again after 30 days.

Common Mistakes People Make

The checklist also helps people avoid common leadership mistakes, including:

  • Assuming leadership only applies to managers.

  • Focusing on personal achievements instead of team success.

  • Avoiding difficult conversations rather than resolving them.

  • Failing to recognise the contributions of others.

  • Treating mistakes as failures instead of learning opportunities.

  • Setting goals without reviewing or adjusting them over time.

Messado believes leadership is a skill that anyone can strengthen through consistent effort and honest reflection. Leadership is not about controlling people, it is about serving and protecting them.

“My success is when you see the accomplishment of others based on your input, guidance and support,” he said. “Your success is measured by the accomplishments of your team.”

How to Get Started Today

Download or recreate the Leadership Self-Audit Checklist, set aside 15 uninterrupted minutes, answer each question honestly, and identify one behaviour you can improve this week. Revisit the checklist every month to measure your progress, celebrate small wins, and continue building habits that strengthen your leadership, relationships, and long-term career growth.
