🔥 This Week's Hot Topics

🔥 DTCC's Blockchain Move, Fidelity's Crypto IRAs & GUN Token's Web3 Gaming Push! 🔥

🚀 Featuring The Edge of Show’s January Jones, Josh Kriger & Richard Carthon

🔑 What’s Inside:

🔹 DTCC Tokenizes Collateral: The world’s largest securities settlement system is going blockchain-native. DTCC’s new platform aims to automate collateral management with smart contracts, real-time settlement, and global reach. Is this Wall Street’s big moment for blockchain?

🔹 Fidelity's Zero-Fee Crypto IRAs: Fidelity just opened the door for millions of Americans to put BTC, ETH, and LTC directly into retirement accounts — with no custody fees. Will this help crypto finally crack into mainstream investing?

🔹 GUN Token Fuels Web3 Battle Royale: Gunzilla Games launches GUN as both in-game currency and gas token for its AAA shooter Off The Grid. With 14.5M wallets already from testnet, could this be the breakout Web3 gaming economy we've been waiting for?

🔹 Crypto’s Policy Moment: Josh shares fresh insights from DC Blockchain Week and the White House’s recent crypto summit. Builders and policymakers are finally having real conversations — but will they lead to meaningful regulation?

✨ Transforming Data Integrity with Constellation Network

✨DC Blockchain Summit 2025 Special — Constellation’s Digital Evidence, Blockchain + Gov, and the Future of Trust

We’re live from DC Blockchain Summit 2025, where Ben Jorgensen and Benjamin Diggles of Constellation Network unveiled one of the most important real-world blockchain applications we’ve seen yet.

This one’s for the builders, policy-makers, and believers in blockchain’s true potential.

🔹 Digital Evidence – Real Use Cases, Right Now
Constellation’s newly launched product authenticates critical data from emergency vehicles, law enforcement systems, and government infrastructure — making it usable, traceable, and admissible in court. Blockchain beyond buzzwords.

🔹 From Crypto to Capitol Hill
After 8 years of navigating regulatory uncertainty, Constellation is now helping shape blockchain policy at the federal level — and launching real tech in partnership with agencies and enterprises like Panasonic and the U.S. Army.

🔹 Constellation’s Vision: Build, Don’t Hype
Instead of academic debates and meme coins, it’s time for impact. That’s the message from both Bens — and the momentum is real. “You can now build your own network on top of ours,” says Jorgensen. “Let’s make it count.”
