Implementation, not exploration. That was the message from Zurich this year ๐
As Presenting Partner of CV Summit 2026, @FranklnTempletn was at the heart of that conversation. Christopher Perkins took the Anchor Stage with a keynote on how regulatory clarity is driving institutional adoption, and why tokenisation is becoming a fiduciary consideration rather than a choice. Emilio Anting then moderated a discussion on the rails, liquidity, and market structure behind the next phase of digital assets.
A huge thank you to the @FranklnTempletn team for returning as our Presenting Partner. Your support, and the institutional depth you brought to every session you were part of, helped make this year's summit one to remember.
We can't wait to welcome you back! ๐

Even the best agents get tool calls wrong.
What helps them recover?
Our previous study showed why a convincing answer isnโt enough. We took 60 failed runs and tried three recovery methods on them. Hereโs what we learned.

We spent 9 weeks testing agent reliability during software tool use.
Nearly 60% of claims accepted as correct could not be backed by evidence from recorded tool calls.
The answer looked right. The evidence wasn't. ๐งต

CV Summit Zรผrich - Where Business Gest Done 2026
Taking in the views of Cape Town! ๐ธ ๐ฟ๐ฆ
The @StellarOrg x @CV_Labs Accelerator stepped away from the classroom over the weekend to explore the natural beauty South Africa has to offer.
The CV Labs / CV VC team and the selected cohort climbed Lion's Head for scenic views of Cape Town, saw penguins at Boulder's Beach, visited the stunning wine region of Franschhoek, and ventured to the most south-western point of Africa.
With week two now in full swing, it's back to building the future of finance on Stellar, with workshops focused on navigating the legal landscape, what stablecoins can offer, and how to fundraise in the world of AI.

๐ฅ๐ฒ๐ฎ๐ฑ @ChronicleLabs's ๐น๐ฎ๐๐ฒ๐๐ ๐ถ๐ป๐๐ถ๐ด๐ต๐๐
Most teams shipping infrastructure stay quiet about the thinking behind it. @ChronicleLabs is doing the opposite - publishing the research, frameworks, and conversations shaping how tokenized assets actually get verified.
Here are three pieces published in recent weeks that tackle the hardest open questions in tokenization right now:
๐ ๐ง๐๐ฟ๐ป๐ถ๐ป๐ด ๐ฎ ๐ง๐ฟ๐ฒ๐ฎ๐๐๐ฟ๐ ๐๐๐ป๐ฑ ๐ถ๐ป๐๐ผ ๐ฆ๐๐ฎ๐ฏ๐น๐ฒ๐ฐ๐ผ๐ถ๐ป ๐๐ผ๐น๐น๐ฎ๐๐ฒ๐ฟ๐ฎ๐น ๐ช๐ถ๐๐ต๐ผ๐๐ ๐ง๐ฟ๐๐๐ ๐๐ฎ๐ฝ๐
What you'll learn:
๐ก Why market-based price feeds break down for stablecoins and tokenized funds
๐ก The difference between pricing an asset and verifying what backs it
๐ก How JTRSY (@centrifuge 's tokenized Janus Henderson's Treasury fund, now eligible @m0 collateral) shows NAV pricing and reserve verification running as one layer

What you'll learn:
๐ก Why there's no longer a single universal oracle model
๐ก How verification needs differ across loan portfolios, real estate, and other RWAs
๐ก Why stablecoin issuers are pushing oracles toward continuous NAV over daily/quarterly reporting
๐ก How our founder @nomos_paradox Niklas Kunkel's and @m0 co-founder Gregory Di Prisco's shared MakerDAO (@MakerDAO). roots shape both teams' approach to risk

What you'll learn:
๐ก The two models hiding behind "tokenized stock" - issuer-backed tokens vs. third-party wrapper tokens
๐ก Why your legal claim differs completely depending on which one you're holding
๐ก Why verification, not legal structure alone, is what actually answers "what do I own?"
๐:lnkd.in/eaAB_EW3
Together, these pieces trace the same thread from different angles - collateral, credibility, checklists, and equity claims all come down to the same question: what's actually backing this token, and how do you prove it?
The @ChronicleLabs team is led by: @nomos_paradox Niklas Kunkel, @jensenhaji Jennifer Senhaji, @floowp_ Florian Prantl and Alexander Vasylchenko
