Texas Governor Greg Abbott announced that Galaxy Digital, Compass Datacenters, and Montera Infrastructure have committed to complying with new standards and regulatory requirements established by Texas for data center construction.It is understood that these guidelines are being implemented across data center projects statewide, aiming to ensure that data center expansion does not add burdens to residents, nor affect grid stability, water supply, or community quality of life. Under the new rules, data center operators must meet several requirements, including: bearing the costs of power infrastructure themselves without shifting construction and operational costs onto Texas households and small businesses; implementing water recycling for their own use to reduce pressure on public water resources; taking measures to lower overall electricity costs; avoiding disruption to residential communities by reducing noise, light, and traffic impacts; and reducing dependence on government subsidies and taxpayer funds to achieve self-sustaining project operations.Additionally, the Public Utility Commission of Texas (PUCT) and the Electric Reliability Council of Texas (ERCOT) will review data center projects, requiring companies to disclose project ownership structures, government subsidy details, electricity demand forecasts, self-built power generation plans, water usage plans, and community impact mitigation measures.
Odaily Odaily: Securitize shares are expected to begin trading on the New York Stock Exchange on Thursday under the ticker symbol SECZ. Securitize is a tokenization company backed by BlackRock, which has assisted companies like BlackRock in issuing securities on-chain. Securitize President Brett Redfearn stated that bringing real-world assets on-chain allows investors to control assets in digital form and reduces intermediaries in traditional businesses. Using stock lending as an example, he noted that Robinhood currently retains approximately 85% of the related revenue, while Charles Schwab splits the revenue evenly with users. Redfearn believes that DeFi can offer investors in the tokenized securities ecosystem more ways to utilize assets, but such growth also depends on development by external builders. Robinhood is expected to launch a new product on Wednesday; previously, Compass Point analyst Ed Engel suggested that it may include tokenized stocks compatible with DeFi.
