Our Co-Founder, COO and General Counsel Delia Burrage has been named a finalist in the Professional Excellence category at the 2026 Digital Economy Council of Australia (DECA) DIGIs! We’d give her two enthusiastic thumbs up, but anatomically, we’re at a disadvantage. 🦘 From helping secure Australia’s first AFSL specifically authorising stablecoin issuance to clearing the path for the wider industry, she’s given us plenty to applaud. (Paws permitting.) Read Delia’s story 🦘👇 #DIGIs2026 #AUDM #MacropodStablecoins

All show and no go? Stablecoins beg to differ. Delia Burrage joined the FIX Trading Community Asia Pacific Conference panel ‘From Pilots to Market Infrastructure: Tokenisation Becomes Real’ this morning, alongside Stu Burns (Imperium Markets), Adam Reynolds (Nexfolio) and David Rogers (B2C2), with Paul Stonham (BTC Markets) steering the conversation. Among the topics on the table was what makes a high-quality stablecoin. Delia’s checklist: ✅ A locally licensed issuer that understands Australian financial services ✅ Denominated in the currency you actually need, without unnecessary FX conversion ✅ Reserves held in trust with major banks, rather than unsecured debt owed by a payment provider ✅ Secure smart contracts and infrastructure from providers who take security seriously ✅ Available on blockchains people actually use, without the need for bridging We may be biased, but that list sounds awfully familiar... (looking at you, AUDM 👀) As for where the market is heading, stablecoins have hopped a fair way from their early days as an on-ramp to crypto. They’ve since found their place in FX spot markets and liquidity pools (AUDM/USDT is the second most traded pair on BTC Markets), with payments infrastructure shaping up as the next big chapter. And we’ve already had a taste of what’s possible through #ProjectAcacia: the CLIFFO Series 1 tokenised corporate bond, issued by Barrenjoey on Imperium Markets using Redbelly Network, settled in AUDM in just four minutes. That's quite a lot of go, we’d say. 🦘💪 #AUDM #MacropodStablecoins #Tokenisation #ProjectAcacia #FIXConference

Everyone loves an AI agent that gets things done. But when’s it going to start picking up the tab? 🦘 Our piece on x402 (the protocol that lets AI agents pay for things directly using stablecoins) is out in today’s Digital Economy Council of Australia (DECA) Bulletin. Agent-to-agent commerce is still finding its feet, so now’s the time to sort out AUD settlement. After all, why should an Aussie agent paying an Aussie provider have to take a detour through US dollars? AUDM is ready for the job today, with x402 settlement supported on Base. Thanks to Amy-Rose Goodey and Digital Economy Council of Australia (DECA) for getting the word out: https://lnkd.in/gTGeFCaq #AUDM #MacropodStablecoins #x402 #AgenticPayments #Stablecoins #DECA Drew Bradford Robert Waugh

Rooly over the moon that our first enterprise API client is live in production. Welcome aboard, TAF CAPITAL PTY LTD. You might remember TAF Capital from #ProjectAcacia, where we worked together on a tokenised Managed Investment Scheme. They’ve now taken the next step, submitting Mint Requests for AUDM directly through our API, with real funds moving through the process. And the first live mint gave us some rather satisfying numbers: ⏰ 7 minutes 21 seconds for the funds to clear at the bank. ⏰ 28 seconds to mint the AUDM. With API access, enterprise partners can request AUDM directly from their own systems, saving everyone the email chains and manual back-and-forth. TAF Capital is our first partner to go live, with more to follow. We’ll be publishing a blog about our API next week, so stay tuned. 👀 A big thanks to TAF CAPITAL PTY LTD, and to everyone who worked towards getting this over the line. 🦘💪 #AUDM #MacropodStablecoins #Stablecoins #TokenisedSettlement JellyC - Digital Asset Management

Why is there something rather than nothing? Is the glass half full or half empty? Which came first, the chicken or the egg? The latest Unblocking the Chain episode tackles another of life’s great questions: How does Australia regulate digital assets without stifling innovation? Joining Drew Bradford and Michael "Critta" Prendiville is David Halperin, someone they’ve been keen to get behind the mic for quite some time. We think he was well worth the wait. 🎙️🦘 Watch here: https://lnkd.in/gVfBvZD2 #AUDM #MacropodStablecoins ASIC

Next Thursday, our COO and General Counsel Delia Burrage is hopping to the FIX Trading Community Asia Pacific Conference 2026 to talk tokenisation. Tokenised bonds, funds and real-world assets have spent a long time in pilot mode. From Pilots to Market Infrastructure: Tokenisation Becomes Real looks at what has made it into production, and how custody, liquidity, interoperability, digital identity and regulation are catching up. Delia will be bringing the stablecoin rail into the conversation. An asset can be tokenised end to end, but if the cash leg still runs on legacy rails, the infrastructure is only half built. Regulated stablecoins like AUDM are designed to fill that gap, and we’ve seen it work in practice through the Reserve Bank of Australia #ProjectAcacia, including Australia’s first tokenised wholesale corporate bond alongside Imperium Markets. Delia will be on a panel with: Stu Burns, Imperium Markets Adam Reynolds, Nexfolio David Rogers, CEO Asia-Pacific, B2C2 Chaired by Paul Stonham, Chief Commercial Officer, BTC Markets. 📍 The Fullerton Hotel Sydney 🗓 Thursday 22 October, 10:15am If you’re there, come say hello. Delia is always up for a chat about settlement over coffee (did you know we’ve paid for coffee in AUDM before?) 🦘 #AUDM #MacropodStablecoins #Tokenisation
