3 predictions for the alternative assets market in 2026 I spent the last week analyzing every major development across watches, sneakers, trading cards, fashion resale, and Web3. Here's what I think is coming ↓

I just listened to the replay of the AMA between @WRTHapp and the @verona_comm. In my opinion, there was one particularly interesting part, especially when @LLCoolBlaze explained the core belief that forms the foundation of WRTH. We know that WRTH is a platform for the resale economy and collectibles built on @verona_dev infrastructure. However, the core problem they aim to solve is actually much bigger than simply buying and selling goods. “Our core belief is that an object should carry its own history…” Currently, information about a physical asset is typically scattered across marketplaces, databases, spreadsheets, or even relies solely on the owner’s memory. When an item changes hands, its history doesn’t transfer along with it. Every transaction seems to reset the item to zero as if it were suffering from "amnesia". WRTH Through provenance, verification, and technologies like NFC/RFID connected to Verona, an item can have a record that continuously tracks the asset’s journey from when it was first created, through changes of ownership, damage or repairs, to resale. Every event becomes part of its history, rather than replacing the previous history. And Verona is part of the infrastructure that makes that history verifiable.

I spend the most valuable 1hr of my time last week listening to @LLCoolBlaze talked about @WRTHapp with Verona Community. I clipped the Introductory part where COOLblaze spoked about how he met with his co-founder and sharing his most valuable skill that has helped him build in web3 coming from a DJ background. If you missed the space, well the recording is below. This is just a clue of the conversation we had. honestly, from what he shared, I now see why @verona_dev dragged them to build on their. The thought process alone is enough to generate huge ROI. we still have some talented builders in web3 solving real problems and COOLblaze is one of them. Listen to the entire conversation below ⤸

Gm everyone enjoyed yesterday’s Verona x WRTH community space. WRTH co-founder & CTO @LLCoolBlaze joined us and walked through the product, the real story behind it, and the $3M pre-seed. WRTH is building the AI-native operating system for the $475B resale & collectibles economy (sneakers, watches, cards, art, etc.). Snap a photo → AI identifies the item, prices it from 50+ data sources, manages inventory, and lists it everywhere. The key part: the entire provenance & ownership history lives on Verona. As an item moves between owners, the verified record stays intact, neutral, and uneditable. Marketplaces can’t be the “title office” because they profit from the sale - Verona makes the truth portable and permanent. This is exactly why you should take a closer look. The secondary market still runs on spreadsheets and trust me bro. WRTH & Verona is replacing that with real infrastructure. Recording still up if you missed it. Worth the listen. @WRTHapp @verona_dev @verona_comm

Good Vibes
Yesterday, we had the opportunity to speak with the co-founder and CTO of WRTHApp, @LLCoolBlaze , and hear firsthand about the vision behind the project. From the story behind @WRTHapp ’s $3M raise to how the project came to be and the process behind every item listed, we got valuable insights into what goes on behind the scenes. Listen to the full Space recording to get all the details ⤵️

Great talking with you guys yesterday!
We had @LLCoolBlaze, WRTH’s CTO and former DJ, joint the @verona_comm to talk about WRTH, its technology, and the recently announced $3M pre-seed. > @WRTHapp started from real problems he and the team experienced in the resale industry. > He went from jewelry e-commerce to DJing across 20 countries before joining WRTH. > The marketplace is only one part of WRTH’s bigger vision. > Its tech stack is built to keep an item's record and history alive as it moves through different owners. > The $3M pre-seed took months to close, with funding needed to build for the long term. Been a while since we had spaces on @verona_dev Feels good to be back. :)

Was in Brickell the other day and my thought was: Can we trade Sexy Fish and get back Perricone's....

Why would a company managing $100M+ in physical inventory put its provenance records on-chain? Justin, Co-founder, WRTH, explains it better than we can.
The $475,000,000,000 resale economy still runs on spreadsheets. WRTH replaces them. Snap a photo, and it identifies the item, prices it, and lists it everywhere. Provenance verified at the source. $100M+ inventory managed, built on Verona, which shares in what it earns.

Just because you know the distinction doesn’t mean that the journey will be easy. But once you know where you want to be, it’s only a matter of how much work you will put in to get there.
