1.1 Adaptation of the Merton Model: Adjustment of the Probability of Default (PD) using the CCQI Index
The integration of the CCQI Index into credit risk models relies on adapting the structural framework of Merton (1974), where a borrower's Probability of Default (PD) is determined by the distance between the value of their assets and…
CCQI index and characterization of TCMs: Tracking Tokenization of RWAs and Carbon Credits
1.1 Methodology for the STEELLDY CCQI (Climate Credit Quality Index)
1.1.1 Definition and Objectives of the Index: Carbon Credit Quality Benchmark for the Voluntary Market
The Climate Credit Quality Index (CCQI), developed by STEELLDY, is a proprietary benchmark for the quality of…
The Core Carbon Principles (CCP), established by the Integrity Council for the Voluntary Carbon Market (ICVCM), constitute the most stringent quality benchmark in the carbon market. CCP-qualified credits must satisfy three fundamental criteria: additionality (the emission reductions would not have occurred without the financial incentive of the carbon credit), permanence (the reductions are irreversible over…
The tokenization of carbon credits is based on a layered technological architecture that ensures interoperability between traditional carbon credit registries and blockchain infrastructures. The typical protocol involves: (i) the verification and custody of carbon credits in a traditional registry account; (ii) the issuance of representative tokens on a public or permissioned blockchain, with a 1:1…
(1) XRP — Settlement Layer and Liquidity Bridge
XRP serves as a neutral liquidity bridge between different fiat currencies and tokenized assets. The arrival of seven US spot XRP ETFs (approximately $1 billion in AUM) signals progressive institutionalization. Demand for XRP structurally stems from the volume of transactional flows, which creates continuous buying pressure…
The gradual shift of the XRP Ledger (XRPL) from a simple payment network to a true institutional settlement layer (RWA, tokenization, interbank cross-border settlements) is empirically observable.
J.P Morgan recently revealed its utilization of the XRPL.✅ Up next? 🙇♂️ Goldman Sachs and Citi.😏💨 https://t.co/nCu062uXxz — SMQKE (@SMQKEDQG) May 9, 2026

The US labor market appears stagnant.
Job creation in April was 115,000, following 185,000 in March and a 156,000 loss in February. However, these figures should be viewed cautiously due to annual restatements that typically eliminate 0.8-1.2 million jobs, equivalent to about 100,000 in average monthly additions historically. This pattern often creates an illusion…
The impact of the Pillar Two international tax regime (OECD) on the valuation and structuring of tokenized carbon credit (TCC) investments, particularly in France.
(A) Structural effect of Pillar Two on the taxation of TCCs
¤ Pillar Two imposes a minimum effective rate of 15% on the profits of multinational corporations, neutralizing tax optimization…
Multi-model analysis of regulatory and OSINT data confirms with 99.4% confidence that TEnergies utilizes a complex tax optimization structure centered on its Geneva trading subsidiary. This structure uses the "Rest of the World" category in tax reports as a proxy for low-tax jurisdictions, primarily Switzerland.
