Envelop has added 15 assets to its Metaindex+ product, expanding its NFT market index coverage. **Assets Added:** - Native tokens: Bitcoin, Ethereum, BNB, TRX, NEAR - Stablecoins: XAUT (gold-backed) - Two Ethereum contract addresses - DeFi tokens: LINK, UNI, CAKE, PENDLE, AAVE, MORPHO, SKY This follows a previous Metaindex update that included Bitcoin, Ethereum, XEN, NEAR, LINK, and UNI. **Background:** Envelop's protocol allows NFTs to hold digital assets with on-chain royalties and time-locks. The Metaindex products provide exposure to the broader NFT and crypto market through a decentralized, collateralized index structure.

Envelop has **expanded its INDEX capacity**, allowing users to add **up to 15 tokens** instead of the previous 10-token limit. **Key Update:** - Token capacity increased from 10 to 15 in the INDEX - Follows recent INDEX update for new token support launched in late June - Enhanced flexibility for users managing NFT market positions This expansion builds on Envelop's cross-chain infrastructure that enables NFT functionality including economic setups, on-chain royalties, and rental mechanisms. The INDEX serves as a decentralized, collateralized market index for NFT and related assets.

Envelop has removed certain tokens from its index presets to enhance user experience. The decision targets tokens with **low liquidity and high slippage**, where resolved prices often diverge from expected prices. **Key changes:** - Tokens with poor liquidity removed from index presets - Action aims to reduce price discrepancies during transactions - Follows previous token removals during migration process in January This adjustment reflects Envelop's ongoing efforts to optimize its cross-chain NFT infrastructure, which enables features like on-chain royalties, rental mechanisms, and time-locks for digital assets.

**Key Developments in March 2026:** - **Spaace.io launches first AI-native NFT launchpad** in collaboration with Allium Labs, marking a new approach to NFT creation and distribution. - **Allium Labs Terminal** now tracks stablecoins and tokenized assets, providing enhanced visibility into digital asset movements. - **Virtuals.io introduces ERC-8183**, a new standard designed as a commerce layer specifically for AI agents, enabling automated transactions and economic interactions. - **Ethereum Economic Zone (EEZ)** concept gains attention as a framework for coordinating economic activity across Ethereum-aligned networks. These developments signal growing integration between AI systems and blockchain infrastructure, particularly in NFT creation and autonomous agent commerce.
