📍 The Matchain Map - chapter four: a new node lights up this week.
Chapter two: your vault. Chapter three: the card that writes into it. Neither said where the rewards go. This week does - it's the chapter that connects everything before it to $MAT.
Tomorrow: the reveal article and thread. Then:
• Wed - the burn: what happens to LU, what you receive, what's recorded
• Thu - the video: one board, spend → LU → burn → $MAT
• Fri - Match Point live 14:00 UTC + AMA answers + quiz
🌕 Happy Mid-Autumn Festival from all of us at Matchain.
Small change of plan: today's Match Point moves to next Friday so the question submission is extended to next Thursday 🔥
Already submitted a question on M² Card? It stays in the queue - nothing to resend.
Not yet? Log in at www.matchid.ai and submit the one question you'd like the CEO to answer. One question per identity. Next week we'll also open the floor to chapter four, so questions on both are welcome.
🧠 Friday quiz - chapter three
Two questions. Answers pinned tomorrow.
1. What was missing from the loop between the vault and the reward?
2. What does a swipe write into your vault - and what does it deliberately leave out?
🎬 One swipe, terminal to vault

Why an identity chain needs a card at all, one tap followed end to end, and where the programme stands today - under five minutes on a whiteboard.
Region questions 👇
Tell us your country and we'll collect them for the FAQ.
🔁 Explain it back
Today on X: what a "verifiable spend event" is - what's recorded (size + time, in your vault, under your MatchID)
Your turn: explain "verifiable spend event" to a friend in ONE sentence.
Best one gets pinned. Bonus if you can say what the rewards layer would do with it :)
🎙 Match Point - Friday 14:00 UTC, X Spaces
The CEO takes your questions on M² Card live, one at a time.
How to get yours in: log in at matchid.ai and submit the one question you'd like the CEO to answer. Intake closes Thursday 18:00 UTC. Only questions submitted through matchid.ai are read.

📖 Chapter three is live: M² Card - the piece that closes the loop.
https://x.com/matchain_io/status/2102329450889355773
Short version: MatchID is the identity, MSD is your vault, URN (next chapter) is the reward. What was missing is an input - something that writes real life into the vault. The card is that input: every payment becomes a verifiable spend event you own, stripped of merchant and item detail.
Status is in the article and pinned above: existing cardholders keep full use without possibility for new deposit until further notice; new onboarding paused (partner-side review); more partners being added
Question for the room 👇
If a card wrote your spending into a vault YOU control - what's the first thing you'd want to prove with it, and to whom?
📍 The Matchain Map - chapter three: M² Card
Chapter one gave you an identity you control. Chapter two gave you a vault. This week: the piece that closes the loop - a card that writes real-world spend into your vault as a verifiable event you own.
Also this week, plainly, where the card programme stands. Up front, so nobody has to ask:
• Existing M² cardholders keep full use of their cards without new depositing (until further notice)
• New onboarding is paused while the card-infrastructure partner completes an internal review on their side.
• UR is one of the card-infrastructure providers we work with; we are adding partners to serve more regions
This week:
• Tue — the article: why the loop needs a card, and what a swipe actually writes
• Wed — "verifiable spend event": what's recorded, what isn't, why it matters
• Thu — the video: one swipe, terminal to vault
• Fri — poll + quiz
Ask anything 👇
✅ Quiz answers - chapter two
1. Any two of: spend events · behavioural patterns · your referral graph.
2. An explicit grant from you - with a scope and a duration, and revocable.
3. You do. Nobody queries without asking you first (including Matchain's own analytics).
4. $MAT.
