Ctrl Alt, the first VASP (Virtual Asset Service Provider) in Dubai to be anointed with the power to provide issuer-related virtual asset services under VARA (Virtual Assets Regulatory Authority), is set to harness the mystical powers of Ripple’s (XRP) blockchain-based custody infrastructure. This will ensure that the tokenized property title deeds, issued by the Dubai Land Department on the XRP Ledger, are stored with the security of Fort Knox and the elegance of a well-tied cravat. 🏦🔗

Ali Martinez—whoever that is—decided to drop some knowledge on X, citing this fancy technical analysis—TA for you terminology enthusiasts—about something called a Parallel Channel. Sounds really important, doesn’t it?

Now, do fetch yourself a cup of green tea, a beverage far too gentle for the market madness that we are about to uncover.
