TORONTO, Feb. 10, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Abaxx Technologies Inc. (CBOE:ABXX)(OTCQX:ABXXF) ("Abaxx" or the "Company"), a financial software and market infrastructure company, majority shareholder of Abaxx Singapore Pte Ltd., the owner of Abaxx Commodity Exchange and Clearinghouse (individually, "Abaxx Exchange" and "Abaxx Clearing"), and producer of the SmarterMarketsTM Podcast, today announced the completion of two ID++ Digital Title pilot transactions as the Company moves toward commercial deployment.The two pilot transactions achieved T+0 transfer of ownership of physical gold and money market fund shares, addressing inefficiencies in a US$1.4 trillion margin market and US$2.5 trillion trade-finance gap.1 While blockchain tokenization initiatives often highlight the scale of the opportunity to increase the velocity of collateral, many institutional use cases remain constrained by whether digital token formats can deliver the same identity controls, cross-jurisdictional legal certainty, and transaction confidentiality that underpin today's regulated markets. Abaxx's Digital Title technology addresses this gap by converting physical commodities and regulated securities into legally enforceable, transaction-ready collateral for margin and financing within existing legal and regulatory frameworks.Unlike existing tokenization models that rely on parallel ledgers or bearer instruments tied to offline identity whitelists, Abaxx Digital Title is a fully contained instrument that can be used to transfer ownership under internationally recognized standards, including UNCITRAL's Model Law on Electronic Transferable Records (MLETR), positioning the Company to uniquely enable collateral mobility at institutional scale.HighlightsCompleted a gold-backed Digital Title transaction between an investment firm and a regulated commodity lender that enabled futures-margin financing through repo-financed custodial gold at Abaxx Spot, converting vaulted inventory into transaction-ready digital collateral within regulated market infrastructure.Completed a second Digital Title pilot using money market fund shares as collateral, with evidence of legal title to principal value transferring on margin call, while the income yield continued to accrue to the holder — a superior and more flexible yield structure to stablecoin claims against reserves. Together, the pilots demonstrated a legally enforceable mechanism for direct ownership transfer and T+0 collateral mobilization across both physical commodities and regulated securities, addressing a core institutional constraint in posting margin, financing, and working-capital deployment. Following the successful completion of its first two pilots, Abaxx is pursuing integration of its Digital Title framework into the Company's Singapore-regulated futures and clearing ecosystem, subject to meeting all regulatory requirements. To accelerate commercial adoption of this infrastructure, Abaxx is actively engaging with a coalition of Futures Commission Merchants (FCMs), prime brokers, and asset managers to align operational workflows, while concurrently finalizing a hybrid monetization framework designed to capture value through recurring SaaS fees for Console access with transaction-based pricing and basis-point participation in assets on network (AoN).Additional information on Abaxx's Digital Title pilot program, including a pilot video demonstrating the use of Abaxx Digital Title to mobilize physical gold as collateral, is available at digital-title.abaxx.tech."Abaxx has engineered a superior infrastructure standard that unlocks the potential of 'Smart Collateral' for the global economy," said Josh Crumb, CEO of Abaxx. "Our proprietary ID++ architecture is the first Digital Title solution capable of turning static commodities and securities into high-velocity, yield-bearing T+0 instruments with legal finality under existing legal frameworks. By integrating digital identity directly into the settlement layer, we remove the friction that traps billions in over-provisioned and slow moving capital. These pilots prove that when you build on a foundation of verified identity and perfected title, you don't just move assets faster— you fundamentally upgrade the quality of capital itself."Through executed commercial pilots in physical gold and regulated securities, Abaxx has validated a solution to long-standing inefficiencies in the post-trade movement of collateral.Physical Gold Pilot ResultsIn December, the Company completed its first Digital Title pilot with an international venture financing firm and a regulated commodity lender, demonstrating how vaulted gold can be converted into transaction-ready collateral to finance cash margin requirements for a gold futures position within existing market structures. The transaction was structured as a repurchase agreement using gold held at Abaxx Spot, with Digital Title enabling T+0 ownership transfer for financing purposes while custody remained unchanged.The pilot established Abaxx's first legally enforceable Digital Title for physical gold under a bailee structure, ...Full story available on Benzinga.com
