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.

Fed Decides On Interest Rates Today—Here’s What To Watch For

Fed Decides On Interest Rates Today—Here’s What To Watch For

The post Fed Decides On Interest Rates Today—Here’s What To Watch For appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Topline The Federal Reserve on Wednesday will conclude a two-day policymaking meeting and release a decision on whether to lower interest rates—following months of pressure and criticism from President Donald Trump—and potentially signal whether additional cuts are on the way. President Donald Trump has urged the central bank to “CUT INTEREST RATES, NOW, AND BIGGER” than they might plan to. Getty Images Key Facts The central bank is poised to cut interest rates by at least a quarter-point, down from the 4.25% to 4.5% range where they have been held since December to between 4% and 4.25%, as Wall Street has placed 100% odds of a rate cut, according to CME’s FedWatch, with higher odds (94%) on a quarter-point cut than a half-point (6%) reduction. Fed governors Christopher Waller and Michelle Bowman, both Trump appointees, voted in July for a quarter-point reduction to rates, and they may dissent again in favor of a large cut alongside Stephen Miran, Trump’s Council of Economic Advisers’ chair, who was sworn in at the meeting’s start on Tuesday. It’s unclear whether other policymakers, including Kansas City Fed President Jeffrey Schmid and St. Louis Fed President Alberto Musalem, will favor larger cuts or opt for no reduction. Fed Chair Jerome Powell said in his Jackson Hole, Wyoming, address last month the central bank would likely consider a looser monetary policy, noting the “shifting balance of risks” on the U.S. economy “may warrant adjusting our policy stance.” David Mericle, an economist for Goldman Sachs, wrote in a note the “key question” for the Fed’s meeting is whether policymakers signal “this is likely the first in a series of consecutive cuts” as the central bank is anticipated to “acknowledge the softening in the labor market,” though they may not “nod to an October cut.” Mericle said he…

Wormhole launches reserve tying protocol revenue to token

Wormhole launches reserve tying protocol revenue to token

The post Wormhole launches reserve tying protocol revenue to token appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Wormhole is changing how its W token works by creating a new reserve designed to hold value for the long term. Announced on Wednesday, the Wormhole Reserve will collect onchain and offchain revenues and other value generated across the protocol and its applications (including Portal) and accumulate them into W, locking the tokens within the reserve. The reserve is part of a broader update called W 2.0. Other changes include a 4% targeted base yield for tokenholders who stake and take part in governance. While staking rewards will vary, Wormhole said active users of ecosystem apps can earn boosted yields through features like Portal Earn. The team stressed that no new tokens are being minted; rewards come from existing supply and protocol revenues, keeping the cap fixed at 10 billion. Wormhole is also overhauling its token release schedule. Instead of releasing large amounts of W at once under the old “cliff” model, the network will shift to steady, bi-weekly unlocks starting October 3, 2025. The aim is to avoid sharp periods of selling pressure and create a more predictable environment for investors. Lockups for some groups, including validators and investors, will extend an additional six months, until October 2028. Core contributor tokens remain under longer contractual time locks. Wormhole launched in 2020 as a cross-chain bridge and now connects more than 40 blockchains. The W token powers governance and staking, with a capped supply of 10 billion. By redirecting fees and revenues into the new reserve, Wormhole is betting that its token can maintain value as demand for moving assets and data between chains grows. This is a developing story.
