Thanks to Risk DAO’s risk assessment framework, the Aurigami team was able to conduct a rigorous quantitative analysis and simulation of worst case scenarios for the protocol. The assessment showed that Aurigami has zero value at risk even in the most stressful situation, thanks to safe lending parameters that are matched to the available liquidity.

Aurigami has adopted some of Risk DAO’s recommendations based on its analysis, most notably to introduce borrow and lending caps for all the supported assets. The collateralization ratios of certain borrowable assets will also be revised to optimal levels, allowing sophisticated users to reach even higher levels of leverage and capital efficiency with the platform.

Aurigami and Risk DAO will continue to work together and manage risk on the lending protocol. Armed with a real-time analytics dashboard to monitor risk-related KPIs, built by Risk DAO in collaboration with Kyberswap, Aurigami will be able to quickly respond to changing liquidity environments.

Risk management has always been one of the highest priorities for Aurigami. The protocol already leads the pack with zero bad debt and zero insolvent accounts, as tracked by Risk DAO’s Bad Debt Dashboard which compares users risks across leading DeFi lending platforms.

Risk DAO is a service DAO spearheaded by B.Protocol and 1kx that focuses on providing a new, open source risk assessment framework and associated audits based on real historical data and projections based on current liquidity and potential price outcomes.

Aurigami is an Aurora-based lending protocol utilizing gamification and the concept of Liquid Locked Tokens to create a new, sustainable tokenomics model for liquidity mining. It is currently the third largest protocol by TVL on Aurora.

“Working with Risk DAO has been a breeze, and we’re excited to establish continuous risk assessment with their proprietary algorithms,” said Lucas Huang, Co-Founder of Aurigami. “Thanks to our collaboration, Aurigami will continue to be one of the safest and most efficient lending market, and we intend to keep it that way.”

About Aurigami

The Aurigami protocol enables users to lend, borrow, and earn interest with their digital assets. Depositors provide liquidity to the protocol to earn a passive income, while borrowers are able to borrow in an over-collateralized fashion. Aurigami is pioneering the concept of “Liquid Locked Tokens” to allow a DeFi-native solution for vested tokens. Aurigami is a proud recipient of Proximity Lab’s DeFi Grants.

Blocks & Headlines: Today in Blockchain – May 21, 2025

Published

on

blocks-&-headlines:-today-in-blockchain-–-may-21,-2025

 

In an era defined by rapid innovation and regulatory shifts, today’s blockchain briefing spotlights five pivotal developments: enterprise-grade data integration, municipal crypto pilots, state-level policy hearings, AI-powered token growth, and secure communications on a public ledger. Across these stories, three key trends emerge:

  1. Enterprise Adoption & Data Integration

  2. Government Experimentation & Oversight

  3. AI & Security Innovations in Crypto

Below, we dissect each story’s essence, unpack its broader implications, and offer opinion-driven insight for Web3 stakeholders.


1. Space and Time Joins Forces with Microsoft Fabric

On May 20, 2025, Space and Time Labs (SXT)—a zero-knowledge data platform backed by Microsoft’s M12 Ventures—announced integration of its multichain index (Bitcoin, Sui, Ethereum) into Microsoft Fabric’s OneLake environment. This partnership delivers real-time, verifiable blockchain data directly within Azure, enabling developers and enterprises to build data-driven Web3 and AI applications without custom pipelines.

Opinion: Embedding verifiable on-chain data into mainstream analytics tools marks a watershed moment. As traditional enterprises crave decentralized insights, Fabric’s native access to SXT’s ZK-proven data could accelerate blockchain analytics, foster hybrid cloud-Web3 solutions, and reduce vendor lock-in. Expect more legacy tech giants to pursue similar alliances.


2. New York City Eyes Crypto for Taxes & Records

Mayor Eric Adams revealed plans to form a Digital Assets Advisory Council to explore crypto-based payments for municipal services, including taxes, birth/death certificates, and land records. While specifics remain under wraps, Adams highlighted zero-knowledge proofs as a privacy-preserving tool for public documentation on distributed ledgers.

Opinion: New York’s initiative signals growing municipal appetite for blockchain beyond investments. By potentially accepting tax payments in crypto and securing vital records on-chain, NYC could pioneer use cases that blend transparency with privacy. However, pilot programs must rigorously address volatility, regulatory compliance, and digital inclusion to avoid disenfranchising underserved communities.

3. Wyoming Committee Explores Blockchain, AI & Right-to-Repair

Source: Wyoming Public Media

During its first interim meeting (May 14–15, Jackson Hole), Wyoming’s Select Committee on Blockchain, Financial Technology and Digital Innovation reviewed the state’s proposed Wyoming Stable Token—tethered 1:1 to USD—and examined AI governance and right-to-repair legislation. The Stable Token Commission anticipates a July 4 alpha launch, while lawmakers debated CBDC distinctions, tokenized real-world assets, and consumer repair rights.

Opinion: Wyoming continues to cement its reputation as a blockchain haven. Explicit carve-outs distinguishing stablecoins from CBDCs, coupled with regulatory sandboxes for AI and repair laws, underscore a holistic approach to innovation. Other states should monitor Wyoming’s alpha testing outcomes to inform balanced policy frameworks that nurture Web3 while safeguarding consumer interests.


4. AI Tokens Surge in Crypto’s New Tango

Source: The Economic Times

Himanshi Lohchab reports that AI-centric utility tokens—built to autonomously execute services like compute renting (Render), predictive analytics (SingularityNET), and data marketplaces (Ocean Protocol)—have seen market caps soar from $2.7 billion to nearly $30 billion within a year. Key players include Near Protocol’s AI modules, ICP, The Graph, and emerging AI agents that generate revenue per usage. Institutional interest from Grayscale, BlackRock, and Fidelity further validates the trend.

Opinion: The AI-blockchain convergence is no fleeting fad. AI tokens promise programmable revenue streams and decentralized toolchains, but they also introduce autonomous risk vectors—buggy smart contracts, accountability gaps, and regulatory ambiguity. Security audits, standardized interoperability protocols, and clear legal frameworks will be crucial to sustain investor confidence.


5. BSV Association Selects Binarii Labs for Secure Communications

The BSV Association has designated Binarii Labs to implement BinariiDSM, an encrypted file exchange and messaging suite that logs proofs of record on the BSV blockchain. This integration ensures immutable audit trails, data resilience, and end-to-end confidentiality for enterprises seeking verifiable trust without centralized intermediaries.

Opinion: As data privacy regulations tighten globally, blockchain-anchored communication platforms like BinariiDSM offer a compelling alternative to legacy VPNs and secure email. By immutably recording metadata on-chain, organizations can demonstrate compliance, simplify audits, and deter insider threats. Look for BSV’s secure-messaging model to inspire similar offerings on other smart-contract platforms.


Conclusion: Navigating a Dynamic Blockchain Frontier

Today’s stories reaffirm that blockchain is no longer an experimental niche—it’s permeating analytics, public services, legislative agendas, tokenomics, and secure communications. To thrive:

  • Forge Strategic Alliances: Enterprises should partner with ZK and data-fabric innovators to embed blockchain insights into their analytics stacks.

  • Pilot Pragmatically: Municipalities must balance visionary crypto use cases with compliance, volatility management, and equitable access.

  • Craft Balanced Policy: States can emulate Wyoming’s sandbox approach—distinguishing stablecoins from CBDCs, while addressing AI and repair rights.

  • Secure the Autonomous Agent Era: As AI tokens multiply, enforce rigorous security audits and interoperability standards.

  • Leverage On-Chain Trust: Consider blockchain-anchored communications for immutable audit trails and enhanced data resilience.

By embracing these actions, organizations and policymakers can harness blockchain’s transformative power while mitigating emerging risks.
