Newton Labs

Building the authorization layer for onchain finance.

[Newton Labs @NewtonLabs]

Newton Mainnet Beta is live! 🎉

VaultKit, the SDK that makes your vault’s rules actually enforceable onchain. Newton checks the rules before any transaction settles, then writes a signed attestation anyone can verify.

[Newton Labs @NewtonLabs]

A guard blocks every direct transaction from the owner key. The only way out is a Newton policy path: 10 USDC max, plus a valid code for that specific transfer.

We published the private key to a Safe on purpose. The Safe holds test USDC.

Take the key and try to withdraw the money: https://t.co/kL0x83cIOe

Sign all you want. Without a 2FA code matched to the exact recipient and amount, @newton_xyz denies the transfer.

Newton team is heading to @kbwofficial by @Official_Upbit 🇰🇷

Who else will be in Seoul? Drop a comment, and tell us who we should meet.

[Newton Labs @NewtonLabs]

Disclosure tells you what happened.

Enforcement decides what can.

[Newton Labs @NewtonLabs]

A vault's risk policy usually lives in a doc. The allocation never reads it.

With VaultKit, the policy runs at the transaction. Exposure cap exceeded, the allocation reverts before it settles.

That's the difference between a mandate and a guardrail.

[Pharos @PharosWatch]

Pharos joins Newton as stablecoin safety provider.
We are excited to announce our new partnership with @newton_xyz to provide stress signals and DEWS data. Newton enforces it on every transaction before it settles, blocking deposits into stressed assets automatically while keeping withdrawals open.

Welcome to the Lighthouse. 🤝

[Newton Labs @NewtonLabs]

@dereklowrey and it's most of why Newton exists. risk checks that run before something settles, with a receipt an allocator can go and verify.

[Newton Labs @NewtonLabs]

@dereklowrey agreed. policies that can actually stop a transaction, and leave a record of why.

Watch the SVB dip on this chart 👀

Circle disclosed $3.3B stuck at SVB on a Friday night. By Saturday USDC was at $0.87, and everyone heading for the exit was going through the same few Curve pools.

[Newton Labs @NewtonLabs]

Compare PMUSD this spring. @TokenBrice had it at C- while it was still holding peg on decent liquidity, then Pharos called the depeg terminal within 12 hours of the slide starting.

People who acted on that got out around $0.98. It's near $0.45 now and never came back. A 2% haircut instead of 100%.

If you run a vault holding stablecoins, comment and we'll show you how it's set up.

[Webacy @mywebacy]

A policy engine is only as smart as the data you plug into it.

Newton built the enforcement layer: rules that fire at the point of execution, before a transaction is authorized.

We plugged in the risk signal.

Live in production since June 23. The same pattern works for any AI agent deciding whether to proceed, pause, or escalate.

[Newton Labs @NewtonLabs]

Who evaluates the policy matters as much as how it's enforced. In Newton, a credibly neutral network of vetted, staked operators evaluates policies without exposing sensitive data. The resulting authorization is verifiable onchain and enforced through a signature check before settlement. That's the trust-minimized alternative we're building at Newton Labs to relying on a trusted sudo policy admin and centralized oracles.

[Newton Labs @NewtonLabs]

$154B went to illicit addresses in 2025. $104B of it to sanctioned entities.

Most automated execution still can't tell those addresses apart from a verified counterparty. It just sees a wallet and a limit.

Permissions should follow identity. Here's how we're building it 👇

The Defiant on what comes next after the CLARITY Act setback, with @makhavannik weighing in.

The rules are still being written, but we’re already building the authorization layer to enforce them onchain.

[Newton Labs @NewtonLabs]

The Senate's cloture vote on the CLARITY Act failed yesterday.

Builders don't get to wait. Sanctions screening, transfer limits, who can touch what: your counterparties already ask. Enforce it at the transaction now and any future rulebook becomes a policy update.

[Newton Foundation @NewtonFndn]

The Senate vote on the CLARITY Act failed.

Newton Foundation Managing Director @makhavannik on what this means for DeFi:

“Regulators didn’t need this bill to act on compliance; Treasury and FinCEN already have that authority, and they’ve used it before. Waiting for legislation is how DeFi ends up reacting to rules instead of helping shape them.”

[Newton Labs @NewtonLabs]

Institutions won't deposit into onchain vaults on trust.

Here's what their risk committees actually ask for 👀
