How The “Burnt Banksy” Is Making Web3 Invisible?

XION is a Web3 “invisible” trust protocol designed to remove the barriers that keep everyday users from adopting blockchain. Founded by Anthony “Burnt Banksy” Anzalone, the platform aims to eliminate the need for wallets, seed phrases, and gas fees for people and SMEs to transact and verify value as easily as sending an email. With features like USDC gas, Apple ID logins, and seamless proof integrations, XION aims to bring tokenization — from sukuk to unit trusts and invoices — into the mainstream.

We speak with Anthony Anzalone, Founder & CEO of XION, about making Web3 accessible to non-technical users, the opportunities and risks in Malaysia’s $43 billion tokenisation potential, and the regulatory groundwork needed to make it real.
