Seoul & Palo Alto, South Korea & United Sates, September 10th, 2025, Chainwire

With its September 23 debut fast approaching, Origin Summit reveals a powerful second wave of speakers at the forefront of culture, AI, blockchain, and capital

Story, the world’s IP blockchain, in collaboration with Blockworks), today revealed a powerful second wave of speakers and participants who will take the stage during Korea Blockchain Week in Seoul.The speaker line upbrings together leading voices across AI, blockchain, and finance to explore how intellectual property (IP) is becoming the most consequential real-world asset class of the AI era set to unlock an $80 trillion, illiquid market at the heart of AI’s next evolution.

Hosted by Story, the world’s IP blockchain, in collaboration with Blockworks and Korea Economic Daily (Korea’s largest finance media group), Origin Summit is the premier institutional forum at the intersection of AI, capital, and programmable IP.

This second wave strengthens Origin Summit’s mission: to bridge culture, institutional capital, AI, and next-generation infrastructure. These speakers bring unique perspectives on everything from entertainment and gaming IP to digital identity, tokenization, and the future of AI-native creative economies.

Wave 2 Confirmed Speakers & Participants:

Sooman Lee – Founder, SM Entertainment; Founder & CEO, A2O Entertainment

Visionary founder of SM Entertainment, widely regarded as the architect of modern K-pop, having launched global icons like H.O.T., BoA, TVXQ, Super Junior, Girls’ Generation, and EXO. Now leading A2O Entertainment with a focus on AI-driven cultural innovation.

Arthur Hayes – Co-founder & former CEO, BitMEX

Legendary crypto pioneer and macro thinker. As co-founder of BitMEX, Hayes helped usher in the crypto derivatives era and remains a powerful voice on decentralized finance and global markets.

Known for bold moves and industry-shaping deals, Justin Sun is the Founder of TRON and Advisor to HTX. Justin built one of the most globally scaled L1s in history and remains a prominent voice in global crypto adoption.

A Convergence of AI, IP, and Real-World Value

Intellectual property (IP) is the backbone of global creativity, culture, and innovation. IP spans everything from AI training data and music catalogs to biotech patents, entertainment franchises, and user-generated content. Valued at over $80 trillion, IP is one of the world’s largest and most important asset classes, but it remains fragmented, illiquid, and largely invisible to markets.

As artificial intelligence advances, access to verified, rights-cleared IP is becoming critical. Models need structured data, not scraped content, and AI-native applications require infrastructure that can trace, license, and monetize contributions in real time. Meanwhile, institutional capital is searching for the next wave of real-world assets, and crypto is evolving from speculation to programmable ownership. IP sits at the center of this convergence. Origin Summit brings together the builders, investors, and cultural leaders unlocking the programmable IP economy, where AI, crypto, and capital align around one of the most consequential frontiers of the next decade.

Why Korea

Few places on earth better capture the convergence of culture, capital, and technology than South Korea. It’s home to one of the world’s most digitally fluent populations, a booming creative IP sector, widespread digital-asset adoption, and some of the strongest industrial players advancing embodied AI.

• Crypto adoption is surging, with 30% of the population (~15.6 million people) actively investing in digital assets.
• South Korean exchanges currently capture nearly 50% of global altcoin trading volume.
• Coupled with a vibrant retail trading base ($663B in KRW trades vs USD markets) and consolidated liquidity on platforms like Upbit and Bithumb, Korea has emerged as a critical hub for digital asset innovation.
• The domestic crypto market reached a value of ₩102 trillion, with daily trading volumes up 20% year-over-year.

SINGAPORE, Sept. 10, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — Remi Technology, a pioneer in compliant digital finance solutions, today launched the Remi Global Stablecoin Clearing System—a first-of-its-kind infrastructure integrating banking-grade settlement with built-in AML/CFT and RegTech capabilities. This breakthrough redefines cross-border finance by merging stablecoin efficiency with regulatory certainty for banks, financial institutions, and Web3 enterprises.

A New Standard for Compliant Digital Finance

The Remi System delivers a regulation-ready framework for stablecoin issuance, trading, and settlement, addressing critical pain points in global payments:

• Instant, low-cost interbank transactions with embedded compliance
• Real-time liquidity via full integration with traditional banking systems
• Live regulatory oversight for transparent, auditable workflows
• Robust AML/CFT controls to protect institutions and users from illicit funds

Remi Tech’s RegTech innovation delivers a unified on-chain/off-chain KYC infrastructure, complemented by three dedicated regulatory dashboards: Real-Time Screening, AML, and Operational Monitoring. These provide regulators with real-time data access and advanced monitoring capabilities.

By combining FinTech with RegTech in one KYC framework, Remi eliminates the speed-compliance trade-off, enabling secure and efficient inter-institutional transactions. It also delivers real-time insights to monetary policymakers via regulatory dashboards.

The system includes a dedicated module to help central banks monitor key stablecoin metrics—such as interest rates, M0, M2, and exchange rates—across onshore and offshore markets. It allows authorities to assess impacts on monetary policy transmission and prevent sharp rate fluctuations in interest and exchange rates.

Remi’s solution also features:

• Automated regulatory reporting
• AI-driven transaction monitoring
• Jurisdictional compliance tracking

“Traditional finance prioritizes security and compliance, while Web3 emphasizes efficiency. Remi uniquely resolves this trilemma with a seamless, unified solution,” stated YongCheng Zhang, CTO of Remi Tech, “Our platform enables banks and digital asset issuers to harness stablecoins’ potential—without regulatory compromise. It builds the foundation for a new era of global financial connectivity.”

Industry Firsts: Why Remi Stands Apart

Dubai, UAE, September 10th, 2025, Chainwire

Falcon Finance is excited to announce its Community Sale on Buidlpad, a compliant community-first fair token access platform that connects protocols with real communities globally. 

Falcon Finance is pioneering the first universal collateralization infrastructure, designed to unlock liquidity from any crypto asset. From BTC, ETH, SOL, stablecoins, and select altcoins to tokenized RWAs such as Treasuries, Falcon transforms them into USD-pegged liquidity that seamlessly connects TradFi and DeFi. Falcon is innovating a highly scalable infrastructure that redefines how collateral, liquidity, and asset ownership interact across financial domains.

Falcon Finance has been gaining strong momentum with its USDf supply reaching $1.5 billion while its total reserves surpassed $1.6 billion. This Community Sale marks the next phase of Falcon’s explosive growth and will distribute its $FF token to participants.

Buidlpad has a proven track record of connecting tier-1 protocols with real users, with over $220 million committed by more than 40,000 verified users in three recent campaigns in 2025. Falcon is excited to build on this momentum.

Andrei Grachev, Managing Partner of Falcon Finance commented, “The launch of $FF through Buidlpad is an important milestone in Falcon’s journey to make universal collateralization accessible to everyone. 

We’ve built one of the fastest-growing digital dollar ecosystems, with USDf supply already surpassing $1.5 billion, but what excites us most is opening this next phase to our community.

By working with Buidlpad, we’re ensuring that real users, and not just institutions, can also share in Falcon’s growth. 

This is more than a token sale; it’s a chance for people to participate directly in building the collateral infrastructure that will power trillions in tokenized assets and shape the future of global finance.”

Falcon previously received a $10 million strategic investment from World Liberty Financial (WLFI). Now, through Buidlpad, it is extending this opportunity to the wider community.

“Falcon’s USDf is one of the fastest-growing digital dollar solutions in the space, redefining on-chain capital efficiency which is a constant demand on the market from both retail and institutional users. Its innovation to universal collateralization opens the door to bridging TradFi and DeFi liquidity. We look forward to working with the Falcon team to offer our users this great opportunity. By bringing Falcon and real communities together, we invite our users to participate in this digital dollar revolution.” said Erick Zhang (@ErickNomad), managing partner of Nomad Capital and founder of Buidlpad.

About $FF

$FF is the native token that captures the growth of Falcon Finance, the first universal collateralization infrastructure. As more assets are deposited and USDf adoption expands, $FF becomes the core asset tied to the protocol’s scale and success.

Holding $FF gives users access to protocol utility and features, but more importantly, it positions them to benefit directly as Falcon’s ecosystem grows. With $1.5 billion in USDf already issued and reserves continuing to climb, the foundation is set for expansion across DeFi and TradFi.

Falcon is building the collateral infrastructure to support trillions in tokenized assets. $FF is the way to get exposure to that future.

“If we succeed on our mission, World might become the largest network of real people online, fundamentally changing how we interact and transact throughout the Internet” says Sam Altman

The transaction was led by MOZAYYX with a strategic investment from BitMine Immersion (BMNR) and participation from World Foundation, Discovery Capital Management, GAMA, FalconX, Kraken, Pantera, GSR, Coinfund, Occam Crest, Diametric, Brevan Howard, Wedbush and more

EASTON, Pa., Sept. 10, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — (NASDAQ: OCTO) (“Eightco Holdings Inc.” or the “Company”) today announced the closing of its recently announced $270 Million private placement to implement the first-of-its-kind Worldcoin treasury strategy.

The transaction was led by MOZAYYX with participation from a premier list of institutional investors including World Foundation, Discovery Capital Management, GAMA, FalconX, Kraken, Pantera, GSR, Coinfund, Occam Crest, Diametric, Brevan Howard, Wedbush and more. A $20 million investment was made by BitMine Immersion (NYSE AMERICAN: BMNR).

“Since announcing the private placement, we’ve seen tremendous interest in OCTO and Worldcoin,” said Dan Ives, newly appointed Chairman of the Board. “Proof of Human is the next critical step in the AI revolution, and World is uniquely positioned to deliver the trust, verification and authentication that the world needs as AI becomes more deeply embedded in every aspect of our lives.”

Proceeds from the private placement will be used for the Company to acquire and hold Worldcoin (WLD) as its treasury reserve asset, while continuing its focus on the core business operations. While the treasury may also hold cash and Ethereum (ETH) as secondary reserve assets, the emphasis will be on Worldcoin.

The Company also announced that the Nasdaq trading symbol for the Company’s common stock will be changing to “ORBS.” Beginning Thursday, September 11, 2025, shares of the Company’s common stock will trade on Nasdaq under the new ticker symbol “ORBS.” The Company is not undertaking any other corporate action that affects the rights of outstanding common stock, and no action is required by shareholders in connection with the ticker symbol change.

World creates a zero knowledge (ZK) Proof of Human so a person’s human information is not stored on the blockchain. World’s proprietary iris-scanning Orb technology is designed to meet the security and identity challenges of the future, offering a path to a universally trusted digital identity and the foundation for the next generation of online trust, verification and economic exchange.

The Orbs are the hardware backbone of Worldcoin, verifying unique humans, distributing tokens fairly, and creating a trusted digital identity system. World will be the leading verification platform for consumers around the world.
