Moca Network, the Animoca Brands–backed identity project, today opened AIR Shop, a verifiable loyalty platform that the company says is among the first of its kind. Built with Spree Finance and launched in partnership with South Korean tech giant SK Planet, AIR Shop aims to fuse traditional retail loyalty with blockchain-based, privacy-preserving identity and rewards infrastructure. The platform is live now at http://air.shop. At the heart of the rollout is AIR Identity, Moca Network’s enterprise-grade decentralized identity protocol. SK Planet, operator of OK Cashbag, South Korea’s largest integrated rewards service, has integrated AIR Identity into its ecosystem, bringing verifiable, interoperable identity services to 29 million users and 95,000 merchants. The system uses zero-knowledge proof technology, Moca says, to preserve user privacy while enabling verifiable credentials and cross-platform interoperability. Extra Utility for Users AIR Shop positions itself as a consumer-facing marketplace for real-world travel and lifestyle offers, with flights, hotels, car rentals, villas, premium retail and VIP experiences available through partners including BookIt.com. Members can earn rewards of up to 31% of spend depending on membership tier, and points are recorded and redeemable transparently on-chain. The platform’s loyalty currency, AIR SP, is framed as a stablecoin-backed loyalty point system that can be unlocked through verified credentials. Anyone can sign up for a free AIR account and access a Basic Tier membership. Upgrades to higher tiers require verified credentials tied to OK Cashbag’s OCB points, MOCA Coin holdings, or Mocaverse NFT staking status. Those verified statuses allow users to unlock higher rewards denominated in AIR SP, giving holders of SK Planet and Moca Network assets extra utility within the AIR Shop ecosystem. Kyosu Kim, chief business officer of SK Planet, said, “SK Planet has always been at the forefront of consumer loyalty innovation with OK Cashbag. Partnering with Moca Network to launch AIR Shop allows us to extend our ecosystem into Web3 while continuing to serve our millions of users with greater value and more exciting experiences. AIR Shop is a powerful step forward in connecting retail loyalty with blockchain-powered rewards.” Kenneth Shek, project lead of Moca Network, said, “AIR Shop represents a new era of verifiable loyalty, rewarding users with precision while preventing reward abuse. SK Planet is positioning itself at the forefront of loyalty and decentralized identifier innovation by giving users ownership of their data and allowing their digital identities to be verifiable in a highly interoperable manner. We are very excited to work with SK Planet to bring identity to its vast merchant and user network.” Spree Finance, which provided commerce and rewards infrastructure for AIR Shop, brings its “stable-points” technology to the table. Spree’s on-chain payments, rewards and credit products already support thousands of native crypto tokens and a merchant network that the company says exceeds two million. BookIt.com supplies the platform’s travel deals and experiences, leveraging Spree’s next-generation stable-point system to let users earn and spend rewards interoperably. To celebrate the launch, AIR Shop is kicking off a series of sweepstakes that users can enter using AIR SP. Prizes include a five-day luxury vacation in Jeju Island, Grand Prix racing experiences, BLACKPINK concert tickets at Tokyo Dome and other high-profile rewards. Terms and conditions apply. Moca Network markets itself as a chain-agnostic decentralized identity network designed to preserve privacy while enabling identity verification and cross-industry interoperability. As part of Animoca Brands’ identity ecosystem, Moca Network says it connects more than 600 portfolio companies and over 700 million addressable users, and it uses MOCA Coin as its utility and governance token. SK Planet, meanwhile, continues to expand its data-and-tech offerings in Korea through OK Cashbag and the Web3 wallet UPTN Station, aiming to bridge mainstream loyalty programs with blockchain-native services.Moca Network, the Animoca Brands–backed identity project, today opened AIR Shop, a verifiable loyalty platform that the company says is among the first of its kind.

The Channel Factories We’ve Been Waiting For

The Channel Factories We’ve Been Waiting For

The post The Channel Factories We’ve Been Waiting For appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Visions of future technology are often prescient about the broad strokes while flubbing the details. The tablets in “2001: A Space Odyssey” do indeed look like iPads, but you never see the astronauts paying for subscriptions or wasting hours on Candy Crush.  Channel factories are one vision that arose early in the history of the Lightning Network to address some challenges that Lightning has faced from the beginning. Despite having grown to become Bitcoin’s most successful layer-2 scaling solution, with instant and low-fee payments, Lightning’s scale is limited by its reliance on payment channels. Although Lightning shifts most transactions off-chain, each payment channel still requires an on-chain transaction to open and (usually) another to close. As adoption grows, pressure on the blockchain grows with it. The need for a more scalable approach to managing channels is clear. Channel factories were supposed to meet this need, but where are they? In 2025, subnetworks are emerging that revive the impetus of channel factories with some new details that vastly increase their potential. They are natively interoperable with Lightning and achieve greater scale by allowing a group of participants to open a shared multisig UTXO and create multiple bilateral channels, which reduces the number of on-chain transactions and improves capital efficiency. Achieving greater scale by reducing complexity, Ark and Spark perform the same function as traditional channel factories with new designs and additional capabilities based on shared UTXOs.  Channel Factories 101 Channel factories have been around since the inception of Lightning. A factory is a multiparty contract where multiple users (not just two, as in a Dryja-Poon channel) cooperatively lock funds in a single multisig UTXO. They can open, close and update channels off-chain without updating the blockchain for each operation. Only when participants leave or the factory dissolves is an on-chain transaction…

BlackRock boosts AI and US equity exposure in $185 billion models

BlackRock boosts AI and US equity exposure in $185 billion models

The post BlackRock boosts AI and US equity exposure in $185 billion models appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. BlackRock is steering $185 billion worth of model portfolios deeper into US stocks and artificial intelligence. The decision came this week as the asset manager adjusted its entire model suite, increasing its equity allocation and dumping exposure to international developed markets. The firm now sits 2% overweight on stocks, after money moved between several of its biggest exchange-traded funds. This wasn’t a slow shuffle. Billions flowed across multiple ETFs on Tuesday as BlackRock executed the realignment. The iShares S&P 100 ETF (OEF) alone brought in $3.4 billion, the largest single-day haul in its history. The iShares Core S&P 500 ETF (IVV) collected $2.3 billion, while the iShares US Equity Factor Rotation Active ETF (DYNF) added nearly $2 billion. The rebalancing triggered swift inflows and outflows that realigned investor exposure on the back of performance data and macroeconomic outlooks. BlackRock raises equities on strong US earnings The model updates come as BlackRock backs the rally in American stocks, fueled by strong earnings and optimism around rate cuts. In an investment letter obtained by Bloomberg, the firm said US companies have delivered 11% earnings growth since the third quarter of 2024. Meanwhile, earnings across other developed markets barely touched 2%. That gap helped push the decision to drop international holdings in favor of American ones. Michael Gates, lead portfolio manager for BlackRock’s Target Allocation ETF model portfolio suite, said the US market is the only one showing consistency in sales growth, profit delivery, and revisions in analyst forecasts. “The US equity market continues to stand alone in terms of earnings delivery, sales growth and sustainable trends in analyst estimates and revisions,” Michael wrote. He added that non-US developed markets lagged far behind, especially when it came to sales. This week’s changes reflect that position. The move was made ahead of the Federal…
