Victoria, Seychelles, May 16th, 2025, Chainwire
Victoria, Seychelles, Date, 2025 – Bitget, the leading cryptocurrency exchange and Web3 company, has announced it will support the EOS (EOS) token swap and its rebranding to Vaulta (A). The platform-wide migration reflects Bitget’s ongoing strategy to maintain alignment with evolving digital asset projects while ensuring a stable and secure environment for users. All technical operations related to the swap will be fully managed by Bitget.
The process will commence with the suspension of EOS deposits and withdrawals at 03:30 AM (UTC) on May 26, 2025. Upon successful completion of the swap, existing EOS balances will convert to the new Vaulta (A) token on a one-to-one basis. Deposits and withdrawals for A will reopen at 07:00 AM (UTC) on May 28, followed by the launch of the A/USDT spot trading pair at 08:00 AM (UTC) on the same day.
In preparation for the swap, EOS/USDT spot trading will be delisted and all active orders canceled on May 26 at 03:00 AM (UTC). Spot margin services for EOS/USDT will close on May 21 at 03:00 AM (UTC), at which point any open positions will be automatically settled and transferred to users’ spot accounts.
Bitget’s trading bot system will also retire EOS/USDT from its supported pair list at 03:00 AM (UTC) on May 26. All bots using this pair will be halted, and associated assets will be returned. The EOS/USDT bot configuration will be disabled for new strategy creation and removed from public recommendation listings.
EOS will be delisted from the Crypto Loan program on May 23, 2025, at 07:00 AM (UTC). At that point, all active loan contracts involving EOS will be automatically liquidated. The resulting assets will be credited to users’ spot accounts upon completion of the system settlement.
In the derivatives market, Bitget will disable the opening of new positions for EOSUSDT USDT-M Futures and unified account contracts beginning May 20, 2025, at 03:00 PM (UTC+8). Full settlement and delisting will follow on May 21 at 03:00 AM (UTC+8). Coin-M Futures for EOSUSD will follow a similar timeline, with the final delisting scheduled for May 21 at 03:00 PM (UTC+8). Any remaining EOS futures assets will be transferred automatically to spot accounts if not withdrawn manually.
This transition marks a new chapter for EOS under the Vaulta identity, bringing enhanced visibility to the token while streamlining its integration within Bitget’s trading ecosystem.

Whale.io, the leading crypto casino and sportsbook, multichain platform, is doubling down on its mission to empower players with the launch of its new “Wager & Earn” campaign, and users can now convert $WHALE tokens from Wheel of Whales to Whale.io. These updates mark significant steps toward the highly anticipated $WHALE Token Generation Event (TGE), offering players unprecedented opportunities to stack tokens, double their holdings, and prepare for the token’s upcoming launch. With a thriving community and a commitment to accessibility, Whale.io is setting the stage for a fair launch and game-changing moment in crypto gaming.
“Wager & Earn”: Stack $WHALE Tokens with Every Bet
The “Wager & Earn” campaign is Whale.io’s latest innovation, designed to reward players for doing what they love—playing. The premise is simple yet powerful: every bet placed on Whale.io earns players XP, and each XP translates directly into one $WHALE token added to their balance in real time. Whether spinning slots, betting on live casino games, or wagering on sports, every action counts toward building a $WHALE stack before the token officially hits the blockchain.
“$WHALE is coming, and early stackers eat first!” says the Whale.io team. “Let’s make it easy for you: every single bet you place earns you XP. And every XP? One $WHALE token in your balance. In real time. Play anything you like: slots, live casino, sports, it all counts. Watch your XP climb and your $WHALE stack grow before the token even hits the chain. Then? Use those tokens to unlock utility, staking perks, merch access, and real crypto value when the chain goes live. This is how you front-run the drop. Play now. Build the bag. Rule the launch.”
The current campaign encourages players to increase their $WHALE token holdings in advance of the upcoming token generation event (TGE). Upon launch, token holders are expected to gain access to a range of platform-specific benefits. These include staking functionalities, in-game utilities, access to limited merchandise, project updates, and additional utility within the Whale.io ecosystem.
By linking token accrual to gameplay activities, Whale.io aims to integrate community participation into the broader token framework, thereby reinforcing engagement through functional incentives within the platform’s ecosystem.
Extended $WHALE Token Conversion from Wheel of Whales
In another major update, users can now bring their $WHALE tokens from Wheel of Whales to Whale.io. The conversion window is open for only 14 days, so all token holders need to be quick not to lose their hard earned tokens. This two weeks ensures that every player has the chance to bring their Wheel of Whales earnings—generated through spins or missions—into the Whale.io ecosystem, aligning their holdings with the platform’s upcoming TGE.
The conversion process is a critical step toward the $WHALE token’s launch, consolidating tokens from Wheel of Whales, a play-to-earn game with 6 millions of players and billions of tokens generated, into Whale.io’s unified platform. To sweeten the deal, Whale.io is introducing an exciting “Double or Nothing” feature for converted tokens. Players who transfer their $WHALE tokens from Wheel of Whales to Whale.io can opt to play a coin flip game, wagering all or a portion of their tokens for a chance to double their holdings. This high-stakes opportunity adds an extra layer of thrill, allowing players to go big and potentially amplify their $WHALE stack.
“The race has begun—convert your tokens from #WoW to Whale!” the Whale.io team announced. “Play Double or Nothing—go BIG and DOUBLE YOUR $WHALE! Keep earning and converting in #WoW. Every token counts.” This campaign underscores Whale.io’s commitment to making the TGE accessible and rewarding, ensuring that every player has a chance to participate in the token’s future.
A Step Closer to the $WHALE TGE
These updates bring Whale.io closer to its $WHALE TGE, a landmark event that will introduce the token to the broader crypto market. Unlike traditional token launches, $WHALE is backed by a successful business with a large, engaged community of over 15 million players. The token’s utility is deeply integrated into Whale.io’s ecosystem, enabling staking, gameplay, and access to exclusive perks like exclusive merchandise and special events. Whale.io’s Buyback promise, which reinvests 10% of monthly casino revenue to buy back $WHALE tokens, further enhances the token’s value by reducing the circulating supply over time.
By allowing users to convert tokens from Wheel of Whales to Whale platform and launching “Wager & Earn” campaign, Whale.io has launched another phase in their token launch roadmap and brings $WHALE into their entertainment hub ahead of the TGE. The “Double or Nothing” coin flip adds an element of excitement, rewarding bold players with the potential for exponential gains. These initiatives reflect Whale.io’s community-first approach, avoiding venture capital or private rounds to ensure that retail players and loyal users are the primary beneficiaries of the token’s success.
Why $WHALE Stands Out
The $WHALE token is poised for a successful launch thanks to its strong foundation and unique features:
- Thriving Business Backing: Whale.io’s crypto casino and sportsbook generates significant revenue, fueling the $WHALE token’s utility and value. The platform’s growth directly supports token demand.
- Real-Time Earning: The “Wager & Earn” campaign lets players accumulate $WHALE tokens through everyday gameplay, making it easy to collect tokens without leaving the platform ahead of the TGE.
- Community Focus: With no VC involvement, $WHALE is designed to reward retail players and the Whale community, fostering wealth-building opportunities.
- Utility and Innovation: From staking rewards to exclusive games in development, $WHALE will power a range of experiences on Whale.io
Whale Casino Launches “Wager & Earn” Campaign Ahead of $WHALE TGE
Whale.io has introduced the “Wager & Earn” campaign, enabling participants to convert Wheel of Whales tokens and engage with the “Double or Nothing” coin flip feature, which offers the potential to increase $WHALE holdings through in-platform gameplay.
The platform has outlined additional updates and campaign developments across its social media channels, including details surrounding the upcoming token generation event (TGE).
As the TGE approaches, Whale.io continues to provide utility-driven engagement options designed to integrate token-based interactions into its broader gaming and rewards ecosystem.

With multi-currency support, up to 20% daily cashback, and a vibrant community of over 15 million players, Whale.io is redefining crypto gaming.

Edgen ends its invite-only phase, launches globally as the first AI super app to unify trading insight, social signal, and real-time on-chain analytics into one platform
Edgen, the AI-native market intelligence platform designed to restore informational edge in the age of noise, today announced its public release. Following a closed beta with over a million data being analyzed daily, Edgen is now accessible to all without invite codes, waitlists, or onboarding gates.
Dubbed the “AI Super App” for market intelligence, Edgen merges real-time social sentiment, on-chain analysis, and modular, specialized AI agents into a single AI-native workflow, giving retail traders and independent analysts the tools and clarity once reserved for hedge funds and quant desks.
Backed by Framework Ventures, North Island Ventures, Portal Ventures, Hivemind Capital Partners, and Moonrock Capital, Edgen introduces a new intelligence framework for navigating markets: an always-on, modular reasoning engine for traders, capable of parsing live markets, detecting signals before they trend, and enabling conviction where once there was chaos.
”We built Edgen to help traders make smarter decisions, faster. It gathers insights from the entire market and from everyone, learns from them, and gives them an edge. Markets move fast. Edgen helps people move faster and smarter. When information is everywhere, what matters most is how fast you can turn it into conviction. That’s what Edgen unlocks,” said Sean Tao, Cofounder of Edgen.
The Mental Infrastructure for Smart Money
Markets today are not won by access to data, but by the ability to reduce complexity into clarity, faster than consensus. In a trading environment increasingly shaped by narrative cycles, virality, and social-driven volatility, Edgen offers an intelligence operating system, one that fuses structured AI orchestration, speed, and execution with human pattern recognition and intuition.
“If Bloomberg Terminal were invented today for a generation raised on Discord, DeFi, and ChatGPT, it would look like Edgen,” Sean added.
Edgen is built on a proprietary Efficient Decision Guidance Model (EDGM)—a lightweight, real-time system that intercepts user queries, identifies intent, and routes them through a stack of specialized agents and relevant data sources. Rather than relying on a monolithic and rigid LLM, Edgen dynamically coordinates smaller tools, models, and data sources in parallel, creating answers that are faster, cheaper, and optimized for the crypto-native environment.
This routing system is what makes Edgen not just fast, but contextually intelligent. It knows when to pull on-chain data, when to surface X/Twitter sentiment, when to highlight smart money flows, and when to do all three at once.
From Tool to Network: Edgen as Collective Cognition
Edgen offers users four core interfaces: real-time Search, momentum Radar, crowd-sourced Insight feeds, and a dynamic crowdsourced intelligence layer known as “Aura”. These modules do not exist in isolation, they are stitched together by EDGM to form a continuous perception loop.
Every search query, every published call, and every response reinforces the system. In this way, Edgen behaves not as a platform, but as a distributed learning brain, one trained not by engineers, but by the most attuned minds in the market.
This architecture includes a Cognitive Layer (query parsing and tool routing with EDGM), an Agentic Layer (modular agents for TA, macro, on-chain, and social signal interpretation), and a planned Execution Layer, which will allow AI-generated insights to translate directly into trade execution or smart contract interaction.
“Imagine spotting a sudden spike in a microcap token. Edgen Search gives you an instant TLDR of its utility, recent smart wallet buys, and who’s talking about it on Twitter, all in one click,” said Sean.
Aura: A Crowdsourced Intelligence Layer for the Intelligence Economy
Edgen’s vision is not to replace human judgment, but to amplify it. Every question asked, every insight shared, contributes to the platform’s intelligence. The more users engage, the more refined and valuable Edgen becomes, creating a self-reinforcing loop of market understanding.
Unique to Edgen is its incentive mechanism. Aura is a non-tradable metric that tracks a user’s insight contributions, predictive accuracy, and impact within the ecosystem. It operates as a kind of proof-of-intelligence, ranking those who identify signals before the market does.
“The real arms race in crypto trading isn’t for blockspace. It’s for information asymmetry, attention, synthesis, and decision velocity. Edgen is how we give individuals an institutional lens without replicating institutional baggage”, Sean continued.
Aura is earned in two primary ways: by training the AI through verified high-quality insight, or by distributing that insight and triggering real user engagement. These contributions are scored through a three-tier process involving automated model review, community rating, and expert verification.
This system allows Edgen to transform every high-quality market thesis, meme-framed call, or chain-driven analysis into live training data, creating an AI that reflects the instincts of real traders, not corporate abstractions.
A Platform Designed for a Smarter Future
Edgen marks the beginning of a new infrastructure layer for financial cognition. Looking ahead, Edgen releases the Edgentic Marketplace, a permissionless environment where third-party developers can publish AI agents, custom workflows, and strategy modules built atop Edgen’s multi-agent infrastructure. This isn’t just about empowering traders. It’s about democratizing institutional-grade tools and unlocking them for everyone from digital asset holders to the crypto curious, giving all participants a path to think, act, and evolve like smart money.
About Edgen
Edgen is the leading AI-powered market intelligence operating system in the crypto space. Through its proprietary Efficient Decision Guidance Model (EDGM), the platform transforms high barrier institutional-grade strategies into universally accessible smart tools. Pioneering the “Cognition-as-a-Service” (CaaS) architecture, Edgen integrates modular AI agents, real-time social sentiment analysis, and on-chain analytics to empower retail traders and independent analysts to navigate crypto markets with institutional-grade precision.
Backed by crypto-native funds such as Framework Ventures and North Island Ventures, Edgen’s technical team combines former Wall Street quantitative trading experts and core Web3 protocol developers, collectively building the cognitive infrastructure for next-generation open finance.

Plutus became a pioneer in on-chain integrated finance as the first to tokenise real-world assets (RWA) through on-chain loyalty rewards with Pluton (PLU) in 2015. Since its introduction during the early era of blockchain, PLU has continued to provide on-chain utility and has rewarded over $58M in in-app savings over the past decade. Today, Plutus announces the go-live of PLUS More—a new, timeless addition for PLU stackers seeking to maximise savings on their spending with the Plutus Card.
Built on Base, the Ethereum Layer 2 incubated by Coinbase, PLUS More marks a new chapter in the evolution of traditional rewards, bringing them into the open, permissionless world of decentralised finance. It redefines how loyalty value is earned, owned, and used—all on-chain.
PLUS More is more than a rewards system — it’s a movement.
One that shifts control from corporations to consumers, from closed ecosystems to open infrastructure, and replaces forgettable points with tokens designed for practical use.
From Points to Protocols: Loyalty, Rewired
Every year, billions in loyalty rewards, from airline miles to cashback, go unclaimed. Traditional loyalty systems are fragmented, hard to track, and nearly impossible to transfer — they’re broken. PLUS More redefines loyalty by transforming these legacy models into interoperable, self-custodied tokens, usable across the Plutus app and beyond.
To start, Plutus Card customers in the UK & EU will be able to tokenise their rewards in-app and request payouts on the Base network, pending the approval of relevant licensing, which is currently in progress. Once licensing under MiCA and the UK FCA is in place, PLUS token holders will also be able to access a growing marketplace of partner perks, travel discounts, and digital gift cards, all powered by smart contracts on Base.
This ecosystem will be supported by FUEL, a new on-chain network fee (similar to GAS on Ethereum), launching alongside the PLUS token. FUEL is designed to keep the system sustainable over time by recycling rewards back to customers instead of minting new tokens.
To see full details: PLUS More
https://youtu.be/IbR49AlmX7c?si=i8uIZNTmprsUfwJd
From launching the first tokenised loyalty rewards a decade ago to building a scalable rewards infrastructure across the UK and EU, Plutus is the most experienced player to innovate and lead the next wave of real-world on-chain utility. With a sustainable loyalty system for everyday use, FUEL, and Rewards-as-a-Service (RaaS), Plutus is now primed for expansion—making a future US launch possible.
Through RaaS, businesses can connect to the PLUS More network and launch their own branded loyalty programs, driving growth while giving their customers greater control and real-world utility from rewards.
All of this is built on Base.
To Read more from Founder & CEO, Danial Daychopan:
What’s Next
The PLUS More network is now live on Base. Currently, rewards are issued as in-app points and are not available on-chain, with tokens being non-transferable. Distribution to eligible Plutus Cardholders will begin once licensing approval is granted. Additional features, including expanded RaaS capabilities for brand partners, are under development and will be launched once licensing is secured: Full Details.
About Plutus
Plutus pioneered the tokenisation of real-world assets (RWA) in 2015 with the launch of Pluton (PLU), the world’s first on-chain loyalty rewards token. Since then, it has reshaped everyday spending—delivering over $58M in savings and real crypto rewards to customers. Today, Plutus unveils its biggest leap forward: PLUS More, a next-generation on-chain rewards system offering a minimum of 3% back on card spend with the Plutus Card, empowering customers and PLU stackers with real savings, true ownership, and on-chain utility.

DoubleUp is a blockchain-based casino platform operating on the Sui network, designed to integrate gaming with decentralized finance (DeFi) elements. It offers users a combination of real-time betting features and on-chain transparency, aiming to provide a novel framework for digital gambling within the Web3 space. The platform incorporates what it terms a “GambleFi” model, positioning itself at the intersection of gaming and decentralized finance by introducing mechanisms for both active participation and passive engagement through its DeFi infrastructure.
Founded by HealthyDegen a visionary Web3 builder and former Mysten Labs developer, DoubleUp was designed for the bold, by the bold. The goal is simple: bring the excitement of a real casino into the decentralized world, while rewarding users not just for gambling, but for participating in a growing, gamified economy. From Day 1, DoubleUp has put community, creativity, and crypto utility at the center of its roadmap.
At its core, DoubleUp is a decentralized casino offering a wide range of games—from the classic’s like coinflip, roulette, and slots, to high-stakes raffles and Million dollar lottery. But what sets DoubleUp apart is how they’ve gamified not just the casino, but the very foundation of rewarding it’s players and DeFi participation.
DoubleUp operates as a community-oriented platform, incorporating a reward system designed to engage participants beyond traditional casino gameplay. The platform includes features such as raffles, lotteries, referral programs, and leaderboard-based incentives, allowing users to receive rewards through active participation. A notable component of the ecosystem is the DoubleUp Citizen NFT, which enables holders to access exclusive benefits. On May 10, 2025, DoubleUp conducted an airdrop distributing over $100,000 in free spins to Citizen NFT holders as part of a community rewards initiative. In conjunction with the launch of the $UP token, the platform also introduced a $100,000 monthly contest. Through these mechanisms, DoubleUp aims to incentivize a range of user activities including holding, playing, and staking.
DoubleUp’s DeFi component, Unihouse, introduces a betting-linked yield mechanism that integrates with the broader platform. Unlike conventional staking or liquidity farming protocols, Unihouse allows users to deposit supported tokens and earn returns that correlate with platform betting volume and house edge outcomes. The model is structured so that platform betting activity can influence the yield distributed to token stakers, enabling a reciprocal dynamic between active bettors and passive participants. This approach also enables the use of tokens that may not otherwise offer native staking functionality within other protocols.
And now, the moment that pushed DoubleUp into the spotlight—the stealth token launch of $UP.
On May 11th, 2025, DoubleUp launched the $UP token completely unannounced, dropping it straight onto the market at a fully diluted valuation (FDV) of $40 million. No pre-hype. No upper-hands. Just pure GambleFi energy. Within 24 hours of launch, $UP surged in both volume and visibility, sitting at a $53M FDV at the time of this writing. Early believers were rewarded, and a new chapter for DoubleUp officially began.
The $UP token serves multiple roles within the DoubleUp ecosystem, including facilitating lottery ticket purchases, distributing gameplay rewards, and enhancing yield mechanisms within Unihouse. Holding $UP provides users with access to core utility features across the platform.
DoubleUp has raised $4 million in a Seed funding round at a $40 million valuation. The round was led by Karatage, with participation from Mysten Labs, Selini Capital, EBlock Capital, Comma3 Ventures, Alpha DAO, and Auros. These participants represent a range of experience across venture capital, blockchain technology, and online gaming sectors. The funding will be allocated toward infrastructure development, the launch of additional betting products, and international expansion efforts.
DoubleUp plans to expand its offerings to include sports betting, poker, and time-limited campaigns with defined prize pools. These additions are designed to broaden the platform’s appeal across various user profiles, including active bettors, strategy-focused participants, and passive token holders.
The platform operates without mandatory Know Your Customer (KYC) requirements, offering users open access to its features and reward systems. With its continued development, DoubleUp positions itself within the emerging category of GambleFi platforms that combine decentralized financial tools with blockchain-based gaming experiences.
About DoubleUp
DoubleUp is a next-generation decentralized casino redefining how users interact with crypto through high-stakes gaming and DeFi innovation. Founded by a team of seasoned engineers, DoubleUp was built with one core belief: crypto should be thrilling, rewarding, and community-driven.

As centralized exchanges and On-chain Trading edge closer to integration, global crypto trading platform BYDFi has officially launched MoonX, a powerful new on-chain trading engine. Positioned as a “ticket to the DEX world” for CEX users, MoonX simplifies DeFi access and marks the beginning of BYDFi’s dual-engine strategy.
CEX vs. DEX: From Competition to Integration
With meme coins, airdrops, and early-stage tokens gaining traction, on-chain markets have become a high-growth arena for crypto users. But wallet setup, gas fees, and cross-chain operations remain hurdles for mainstream CEX users.
At the same time, CEXs are increasingly limited in capturing early-stage or long-tail assets. The industry is clearly shifting: CEXs and DEXs are no longer separate silos—they are becoming complementary systems. MoonX is BYDFi’s answer to this evolution.
MoonX: The Gateway to On-Chain Trading
MoonX isn’t another exchange or wallet; it’s a lightweight entry point to Web3 trading. It retains the security and user familiarity of CEXs while unlocking the asset diversity and potential of DeFi.
For Example: a user discovers a trending meme coin on social media and wants to copy a whale trade. Traditionally, that would involve switching wallets, acquiring gas, copying contract addresses, and navigating multiple DEX interfaces. With MoonX, there’s no wallet setup, no gas fees, no chain switching—just one BYDFi account and a single tap to execute.

BYDFi: Entering the Dual-Engine Era
MoonX is more than a product update—it’s the start of BYDFi’s CEX + DEX dual-engine architecture. Users can now manage centralized and on-chain assets within one unified account framework.
By combining liquidity, strategy tools, and advanced security, MoonX goes beyond trend-chasing. It’s building a foundation for trading early-stage, long-tail assets with optimized on-chain efficiency.
Michael, Co-Founder of BYDFi, stated: “MoonX is more than a new feature—it could shape a new standard: a scalable Web3 onboarding system that starts with a CEX front-end and runs on a DEX backend, designed for frictionless asset flow.”
He added: “MoonX merges the best of both worlds—CEX performance and DEX freedom—so that anyone can participate in smart on-chain trading. Web3 shouldn’t be exclusive to experts. It should be a finance layer open to all.”

“Canelo chooses victory, while 1win chooses the best!” said the owner and CEO of 1win.com.
1win.com proudly announced its global partnership with boxing superstar Canelo Álvarez. The news comes after Álvarez’s high-stakes historic IBF super middleweight title win.
On May 3, 2025, Álvarez delivered a commanding performance, reclaiming the IBF belt and solidifying his status as the undisputed super middleweight champion.
Already holding the WBA, WBC, and WBO titles, Álvarez’s victory marks a major moment in boxing history—one that 1win.com is thrilled to be part of.
With this deal, 1win.com steps into Canelo’s corner not just as a sponsor but as a long-term partner. Both sides say the partnership is built on shared values like discipline, performance, and pushing limits in sport.
“When we talk about champions, we talk about people like Saul Álvarez! A fighter who went from a farm near Guadalajara to the absolute top of world boxing. A legend in and out of the ring—and now, the official ambassador of 1win. Not just because he is a legend, but because his mindset—focus, discipline, drive—is exactly what we believe in,” said the owner and CEO of 1win.com in his statement posted on Telegram. “Canelo chooses victory, while 1win chooses the best!”
Álvarez himself shared his excitement about the new collaboration on his social media, saying, “I am proud to announce my official partnership with 1win—a global brand established for champions. Just like in boxing, success takes focus, strategy, and passion—and 1win brings that same winning energy. Get ready for exclusive content, exciting challenges, and big surprises. Let’s take the ultimate gaming to the next level—together with 1win!”
Álvarez joins the growing roster of 1win.com’s global ambassadors, including cricket star David Warner and actor Johnny Sins. Earlier in April 2025, the brand collaborated with MMA icon Conor McGregor, reaffirming its commitment to engaging with the world’s top talents across sports and entertainment.
