Trust But Verify, The SMX Technology That is Changing Global Supply Chain Rules

NEW YORK, NY / ACCESS Newswire / December 1, 2025 / There is a shift in global commerce that most companies have not yet caught up to. Markets are starting to wake up to the idea that verification is no longer a back-office function. It's a new economic layer that determines pricing power, trust, and access. The companies that can prove the truth of their materials, products, and supply chains are beginning to outperform the ones that cannot. SMX (NASDAQ:SMX) sits at the center of that shift. It built a physical-to-digital identity platform that embeds verification into the material itself, transforming proof from a document into an attribute.

They get memory. They carry their identity from the moment they're created until the moment they're used.
