DMCC, Digital Commodity Markets, and the Plastic Cycle Token Turning Proof Into Value
NEW YORK, NY / ACCESS Newswire / December 8, 2025 / Global trade is built on commodities, yet most commodities still move without identity. Plastics, metals, minerals, and composites circulate through global markets worth trillions of dollars, but the materials themselves rarely carry verifiable memory. DMCC sits at the center of that reality. As one of the world's most influential commodity hubs, DMCC processes massive flows of gold, metals, and industrial inputs. Their challenge reflects the broader market's challenge. You cannot price what you cannot verify. You cannot manage risk inside a system built on assumptions.
Circular Sovereignty Starts with Waste: How SMX's Identity Layer Reclaims Material Value
NEW YORK, NY / ACCESS Newswire / December 8, 2025 / Industrial waste has always been treated as a cost center. The global economy generates more than 2 billion tons of industrial and post-commercial waste every year, much of which contains plastics, composites, flame-retardant compounds, or carbon-black polymers that cannot be reliably identified. Between 60% and 80% of these materials never enter recycling streams at all. They are incinerated, landfilled, or downcycled. Not because they lack value, but because they lack identity.
Material Authenticity Rebuilt: How CETI and CARTIF Are Driving the Global Identity Layer
NEW YORK, NY / ACCESS Newswire / December 8, 2025 / Fashion is one of the most complex supply chains in the world. It moves across continents, blends dozens of fiber chemistries, and generates more than one hundred million tons of waste every year. Only about 1% of that waste becomes new fiber. The rest is landfilled, incinerated, or downcycled into low-value fillers.

A*STAR, Tradepro, REDWAVE, and the Rise of a Verified Circular Economy Powered by SMX
NEW YORK, NY / ACCESS Newswire / December 8, 2025 / Plastics are a six-hundred-billion-dollar global industry operating on unreliable data. More than four hundred million metric tons of plastic are produced every year, yet less than 10% are recycled into meaningful second-life applications. The world is not short on plastic. It is short on verified plastic. Tradepro, REDWAVE, and A*STAR highlight how quickly that gap closes once SMX (NASDAQ:SMX) brings identity into the system. When materials carry molecular memory, recycling stops being a waste-management activity. It becomes an industrial supply chain.

Goldstrom, DMCC, and the Rise of Identity-Backed Gold: How SMX Is Changing the Precious Metals Landscape
NEW YORK, NY / ACCESS Newswire / December 8, 2025 / Gold has always been a trusted store of value, but the systems that track it have never matched its economic importance. Every year more than 1,100 tons of recycled gold move through global markets. Yet provenance often relies on paper documentation, fragmented logistics, and reputation instead of measurable proof. Goldstrom's collaboration with SMX (NASDAQ:SMX) highlights how quickly that old framework is disappearing. The moment gold carries a molecular identity, the market stops operating on assumptions and starts operating on verification.
