#113: Real-Time Verification for Digital Assets with Accountable
Accountable (https://accountable.capital/) allows institutions to prove their assets and liabilities in real time, and privately, without revealing their API keys, wallet addresses or trading strategies.
That's their Data Verification Network.
It might just be the missing trust layer that finally convinces the masses to adopt blockchain technology.
To date, they've verified over $2 billion in onchain assets across 60+ partners, including Keyrock, RockawayX, Amber, K3 Capital and Galaxy Digital, a publicly listed firm.
Jerome Tijssen (https://www.linkedin.com/in/jerometijssen/), CFO at Accountable (https://accountable.capital/), joins us to help us understand real-time verification for digital assets.

#112: MiCA Compliance in Europe.. What you NEED to know
MiCA's transitional deadline closed on July 1st, 2026.
Some of the biggest names in the industry lost the ability to serve European clients overnight.
But one jurisdiction rose to become a MiCA licensing hub: Malta.
It's now ranked 4th for CASP (Crypto Asset Service Providers) authorizations, and 2nd for Other Crypto Assets.
In this episode, we spoke with Joseph Axisa (https://www.linkedin.com/in/joseph-axisa-1b86141b4/), Managing Partner at Axis (https://axisgroup.xyz/), a MiCA advisory practice based in Malta, working with some of the industry's most recognisable names, including Arbitrum DAO, Rain, Ether.Fi, Rhinofi, and Legion.cc
