Hex Trust, a leading digital asset financial institution specializing in custody, staking, and markets services, has announced support for Etherlink, a high-performance, EVM-compatible Layer 2 network built on Tezos. As part of the integration, Hex Trust now offers custody support for xU3O8, a tokenized uranium asset issued on Etherlink, reinforcing its commitment to the real-world asset (RWA) ecosystem.

The integration is supported by Trilitech, the R&D adoption hub working on the Tezos blockchain platform and the team behind Etherlink, which is working with Hex Trust to connect institutional clients seeking secure custody for xU3O8 and other Etherlink-based assets. The xU3O8 token is listed across multiple exchanges, making it one of the most accessible examples of on-chain commodity tokenization.

Hex Trust offers licensed and compliant custody to safeguard tokenized commodities. By supporting Etherlink and xU3O8, Hex Trust provides market participants with access to institutional-grade RWA infrastructure, facilitating custody solutions for assets that bridge the gap between traditional finance and blockchain-based settlement. 

“Tokenized commodities like uranium are gaining institutional interest as more real-world assets move on-chain,” said Giorgia Pellizzari, Head of Custody at Hex Trust. “By integrating Etherlink, we reinforce our support for the Tezos ecosystem, and highlight our continued focus on delivering secure, regulated custody for institutions engaging with the evolving landscape of real-world asset tokenization.” 

“We’re really excited to see Hex Trust embracing xU3O8,” said Ben Elvidge, the Head of Commercial Applications at Trilitech. “Uranium is a perfect fit for this kind of innovation. It’s a physical asset that’s tough for most investors to access, the market has pricing issues, and now we can solve both problems with blockchain rails. Having a proper regulated custodian like Hex Trust in the mix just makes it that much easier for institutions to dip their toes in the water.” 

This development reinforces Hex Trust’s role in enabling institutional access to tokenized real-world assets. With licenses in major global financial hubs including Hong Kong, Singapore, Dubai, and Italy, Hex Trust continues to deliver secure and compliant infrastructure for tokenization, custody, and execution.

FLOKI’s flagship play-to-earn MMORPG, Valhalla, has officially entered the U.S. mainstream with the debut of its first-ever national television commercial. 

The 30-second spot aired on Saturday, August 9, at 6:30 p.m. EST during Valhalla’s interview segment on New To The Street. For the next 60 days, viewers across the United States will see Valhalla’s Viking-themed adventure showcased in 350 commercials broadcast on Bloomberg, Fox Business, and CNBC. 

The campaign is expected to reach over 1 billion households, marking one of the most ambitious media pushes in FLOKI’s history.

The TV commercial blitz is part of FLOKI’s previously announced three-month U.S. media campaign with New To The Street, aimed at driving awareness for Valhalla following its June 30 mainnet launch. 

This extensive promotional effort includes bi-monthly FLOKI spokesperson interviews on Fox Business and Bloomberg Television, delivering sponsored programming to more than 219 million U.S. households. The interviews will be complemented by a steady rotation of high-impact Valhalla commercials during prime business hours.

The campaign also extends beyond television. FLOKI has secured a digital billboard takeover in the heart of New York City’s Times Square. Ads will appear on the iconic Reuters 42nd Street Billboard up to 20 times per hour for four weeks each month, with the initial run highlighting Valhalla’s immersive metaverse experience. This visual domination in one of the world’s busiest intersections ensures that the Valhalla brand will be front and center for millions of pedestrians and commuters.

In addition to television and outdoor coverage, FLOKI’s partnership with New To The Street brings a strong digital and press distribution component. Monthly recaps from the NYSE floor and ecosystem case studies will help position FLOKI and Valhalla as leaders in blockchain gaming. 

The campaign will also leverage New To The Street’s 3.16 million YouTube subscribers, along with its social media channels, ensuring 12-month archival access and SEO-optimized reach.

Investor engagement will be another focus area during the campaign. FLOKI plans to participate in broker meet-and-greets, retail-focused gatherings in New York City, and virtual presentations to family offices and accredited investors. 

About Valhalla

Valhalla is a blockchain-based MMORPG inspired by Norse mythology, offering players the chance to discover, tame, and battle with creatures called Veras. The game features a player-driven economy and a hexagonal battlefield designed for dynamic combat. You can play the game now, and it will be officially launched on Mainnet on June 30, 2025.

DUBAI, UAE, Aug. 11, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — Bybit, the world’s second-largest cryptocurrency exchange by trading volume, is excited to announced the launch of the Bybit Rising Fund, a groundbreaking corporate social responsibility (CSR) initiative focused on education through impact. Spanning 15+ geographies across four continents—from Bolivia and South Africa to the Nordic capitals—the fund represents a paradigm shift from traditional one-off charitable donations to sustainable, mutually beneficial, and education-first partnerships that serve communities long-term.

Rewriting the Standard for Crypto CSR

The Rising Fund debuts as part of Bybit’s World Series of Trading (WSOT) 2025, operating under the transformative theme “Rewrite & Reshape.” This year’s competition goes beyond trading excellence to create real-world impact by allocating a portion of the prize pool to localized education initiatives, demystifying abstract blockchain concepts and utilities for the academia, researchers, developers, creators, and students alike.

Contribution to philanthropic and educational causes has been an integral part of WSOT, the longest-running crypto trading competition of its kind and Bybit’s flagship event that excites millions of traders each year.

For the first time in WSOT’s history, Bybit will decentralize control of the CSR prize pool, giving each region—from Latin America and Southeast Asia to MENA and Europe—the opportunity to directly fund and co-create educational programs, scholarships, and hackathons with local institutions. The approach strengthens project ownership and decentralizes creative power to the builders. Together, local taskforces will shape the blockchain-enabled future best suited for their realities and real-world needs.

Reshaping Access to the Industry

The Rising Fund addresses critical barriers to entry in the blockchain and cryptocurrency space through:

• Blockchain and crypto bootcamps designed for entry-level participants
• Beginner-focused educational courses that make complex concepts accessible
• Stronger scholarship-backed educational support for underserved communities
• Collaborative hackathons that unite core crypto players and foster innovation

“The Rising Fund represents our commitment to amplifying WSOT’s legacy through real-world educational support beyond just goodwill gestures,” said Ben Zhou, co-founder and CEO at Bybit. “Through strategic partnerships, Bybit creates lasting value, positioning crypto as a force for real-world utility and social mobility.”

Restrictions and user requirements apply. For the full sets of rules and terms and conditions, users will find out more about the initiative on WSOT 2025’s official page, or learn more about the competition here.

HONG KONG, Aug. 11, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — Cango Inc. (NYSE: CANG) (“Cango” or the “Company”), today announced the acquisition of a fully operational 50 MW mining facility in Georgia, USA, for a total cash consideration of US$19.5 million – a pivotal step marking the Company’s transition into a diverse strategy that manages a robust portfolio of Bitcoin mining and energy infrastructure.

This transaction represents Cango’s first step to steadily increase its portfolio of owned and operated mining facilities. By selectively acquiring low-cost power operations, Cango aims to enhance operational efficiency, cost discipline, and long-term financial resilience—while establishing the foundation for a more advanced energy strategy in the future.

The facility has hosted Cango’s miners under a third-party hosting agreement. Following this acquisition, Cango will allocate 30 MW to its self-mining operations and 20 MW to hosting services for third-party clients. Fully equipped with essential mining infrastructure, accommodation, and support facilities, the facility enables a seamless transition for Cango. With this acquisition, Cango will begin developing in-house operational expertise required for managing self-owned mining sites, strengthening the Company’s technical and managerial foundation.  As this infrastructure is put in place, Cango is also laying the strategic groundwork for a gradual pivot towards supplying energy for high-performance computing (HPC) applications, further expanding the long-term potential of its sites beyond Bitcoin mining while leveraging operational and technical expertise developed in-house.

Mr. Peng Yu, CEO of Cango, said, “This acquisition is a critical milestone and marks the beginning of our vertical integration as we transition towards a more diversified and resilient portfolio of Bitcoin mining sites and energy infrastructure. By integrating long-term power supply agreements into our portfolio and developing new revenue streams, we are optimizing power costs, expanding operational capacity, and reinforcing our financial sustainability. This acquisition aligns with our long-term vision to become the leading mining and energy solutions provider.”

MultiBank Group, the world’s largest financial derivatives institution, has kicked off 2025 with $209 million in H1 revenue, up 20% compared to the previous year, and $170 million in profits. In April, the Group set a single-day trading record of $56 billion, with high client activity sustained across its global platforms.

Investor excitement peaked in July with the launch of the $MBG Utility Token on MultiBank.io, MEXC, Gate.io, and Uniswap. Since its debut on 22 July, $MBG has surged to roughly seven times its launch price, reflecting strong customer sentiment. 

The $MBG token powers MultiBank’s four-pillar ecosystem:

• MultiBank FX/CFDs: Traders can use $MBG for fee discounts and enhanced platform access, while introducing brokers and social traders may benefit from token-based rebates and loyalty tiers.
• MEX Exchange (Institutional ECN): A hybrid FX and crypto ECN for emerging markets, where $MBG automates settlement, reduces counterparty risk, and enables smart contract-based margin and delivery versus payment (DvP).
• MultiBank.io (crypto exchange): Regulated in the UAE, Australia, and Seychelles, the platform offers spot and leveraged trading. $MBG is used for trading fee discounts, launchpad access, staking, and token buy-in events.
• MultiBank.io RWA: Built on Mavryk’s layer-1 blockchain, this arm follows a $3 billion real estate tokenization agreement with MAG Lifestyle Development. $MBG holders receive fee discounts, early project access, and benefit from revenue-linked token burns that gradually reduce circulating supply.

“Delivering $209 in revenue in just six months highlights the effectiveness of our core businesses and the trust our clients place in us worldwide,” said Naser Taher, Founder and Chairman of MultiBank Group. “The subsequent growth of our $MBG Utility Token shows how our digital asset program can build on that performance and create further value for stakeholders.”

With more than two million users, licenses from 17 regulators worldwide, and an unblemished compliance track record since 2005, MultiBank Group is scaling its blockchain and risk infrastructure to accelerate digital asset adoption and DeFi participation worldwide.

CARV, the first AI infrastructure that is powering the rise of sovereign AI Beings, proudly marks the successful conclusion of the Tech Fairness Hackathon, co-hosted with FAIR3 and HackQuest. The global hackathon, focused on building open, equitable AI and Web3 technologies, drew over 600 applicants and more than 200 registered projects, culminating in 21 winning teams selected from 30 finalists.

The event showcased the global momentum behind agent-based, privacy-first, modular applications, perfectly aligned with CARV’s long-term roadmap for evolving from data infrastructure into a fully composable, autonomous AI Being Stack.

CARV’s track challenged developers to go deep into four core infrastructure layers:

• AI Agent Infra on SVM: Building execution and coordination layers atop CARV’s custom Solana Virtual Machine (SVM) chain.
• Decentralized Data Orchestration: Leveraging CARV’s D.A.T.A. Framework for real-time, consent-based agent data.
• Modular Identity & Reputation: Extending the capabilities of CARV ID for agents through behavioral metadata and verifiable Agent IDs.
• Open Innovation: Demonstrating real-world agent applications that align with CARV’s consumer-focused direction.

Projects like AI World, Cipher Protocol, DootyCall, NutriMe, and PeachLust emerged as leading examples of how decentralized agents can be brought to life through modular infrastructure. These use cases range from AI-powered health apps and generative storytelling platforms to real-time financial assistants—all integrated with identity, data, and onchain execution logic.

“Genesis Evolution is not a theory. Builders are proving what is possible,” said Ambero Tu, CTO of CARV. “This Hackathon gave us a live lab to test those ideas with builders around the world. The winning projects are not just demos, they are viable microcosms of what the CARV ecosystem can become.”

Ambero highlighted that several teams successfully integrated the CARV ID SDK and began experimenting with structured queries to the D.A.T.A. Framework. Furthermore, he emphasized three near-term priorities following the Hackathon:

1. Deploy Agent IDs at Scale: Begin issuing Agent IDs with behavioral metadata, enabling early versions of the Unified Reputation Graph.
2. Launch Early Agent Marketplaces: Enable testnet-native transactions between agents for data access, compute, or service exchange.
3. Drive Governance Participation: Encourage builders to stake veCARV and participate in early governance rounds that influence protocol parameters and developer incentives.

Victor Yu, COO of CARV, mentioned that the next step is to support the builders with on-chain deployments, testing environments, and fast-track access to CARV’s infrastructure.

To continue momentum post-Hackathon, CARV will provide:

• Engineering mentorship for integrating with the CARV SVM chain and D.A.T.A. Framework
• Grants and ecosystem onboarding for top teams ready to productize
• Access to real user traffic via CARV Play and partner platforms
• Participation in the Agent ID early issuance program
• Opportunities to propose Agent DAO pilots through veCARV governance

CARV sees this Hackathon not as an endpoint, but as the ignition point for an ecosystem of AI Beings, agents that are identity-bound, economically aligned, and designed to serve real people, not just centralized platforms.

“This was a proof of concept not just for our technology, but for our values,” said Victor. “We are proud to see builders from around the world embrace Tech Fairness, Data Sovereignty, and the Agent Economy. Now, we keep building. Together.”

About CARV

CARV is where Sovereign AI Beings live, learn, and evolve.

What are AI Beings? They are sovereign intelligences born natively on-chain. AI Beings are designed with purpose, autonomy, and the capacity for growth. They possess memory, identity, and the ability to perceive and interact with their environment, not just to execute tasks, but to make independent decisions, adapt over time, and pursue self-defined goals.

Anchored by its proprietary CARV SVM Chain, D.A.T.A. Framework, and CARV ID/Agent ID system (ERC-7231), CARV enables verifiable, consent-based AI Beings that learn, adapt, and co-create with users. Driven by CARV’s AI-first stack, consumer AI apps incubated through CARV Labs launched on Google Play, App Store and beyond, reaching billions of people, bringing agent-powered experiences and real-world incentives into mainstream digital life.

With 8M+ CARV IDs issued, 60K+ verifier nodes, and 1,000+ integrated games, CARV bridges AI agents, Web3 infrastructure, and real-world utility, fueling the rise of agent-driven economies. At its core, $CARV token powers staking, governance, and coordination across this stack, making CARV the operating system for AI Beings on Web3.

DUBAI, UAE, Aug. 7, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — Bybit, the world’s second-largest cryptocurrency exchange by trading volume, has unveiled its bold roadmap for the future of crypto, setting the tone for a new era of innovation, security, and trading excellence.

In the highly anticipated “Keynote with Ben: Reshaping What’s Next, Bit by Bit,” CEO and Co-founder Ben Zhou delivered a forward-looking vision grounded in real-world adoption, institutional-grade innovation, and deep ecosystem alignment.

Celebrating over six years of service, 74 million users, and a milestone where 1 in 8 crypto enthusiasts globally have chosen Bybit, CEO and Co-founder Ben Zhou reaffirmed the exchange’s mission: Rewrite Your Success. Reshape The Standard.

“Crypto is no longer just about speculation — it’s about real world application. At Bybit, we’re not just trading the future; we’re rewriting and reshaping what success looks like, bit by bit,” said Zhou.

Compliance as a Foundation for the Future

Bybit opened the keynote with a reaffirmation of its compliance-first approach — a critical pillar as the industry matures.  Now fully compliant with the EU’s Markets in Crypto-Assets Regulation (MiCAR) framework and securing FIU-India registration in the first half of 2025, Bybit emphasized compliance not as a barrier but as an enabler. Zhou emphasized that “sustainability in crypto begins with trust and transparency,” and positioned compliance not as a constraint, but as a catalyst for long-term growth.

Rewriting the Industry Security Standard

Bybit has also successfully rewritten the industry standard for security following a sophisticated multi-stage attack on one of its vendors in February — the largest known hack in crypto history. While Bybit’s own infrastructure remained uncompromised, the company acted swiftly in response. Within weeks, it completed nine extensive security audits — conducted by both internal and independent experts — and implemented over 50 enhanced safeguards.

The response drew industry-wide praise and global recognition for its transparency, resilience, and user-first approach. Today, Bybit’s security overhaul is regarded as a new benchmark in platform integrity.

Trading Excellence Backed by Infrastructure Upgrades

Bybit continues to lead in performance and reliability. Its upgraded matching engine now handles 3.5 million transactions per second, processing nearly 200 billion daily orders — a 75% year-over-year increase in the first half of 2025.

By extending its Rapid Price Improvement (RPI) mechanism to perpetual contracts, Bybit has delivered 150% higher liquidity and up to 5x better execution across retail and VIP accounts, firmly establishing itself as the go-to destination for professional trading.

Setting a New Height in Crypto Wealth Management

As institutional and high-net-worth adoption increases, Bybit is reshaping what wealth preservation means in the digital age. Its newly launched wealth management platform has already surpassed $150 million in AUM, offering curated portfolios and strategic services tailored to sophisticated investors — all underpinned by Bybit’s trading depth and robust security infrastructure.

Redefining Real-World Utility: Bybit Card and Payments

Another highlight was the new edition of the Bybit Card — now positioned as a crypto-native business card that integrates seamlessly into both corporate and consumer spending. With support for Visa and Mastercard networks, smart security features, and real-time expense tracking, the card bridges the gap between digital assets and daily transactions. Bybit Card is expected to expand into the EU region in August, with Peru and Colombia lined up for Q4.

Bybit’s payments infrastructure has also made major strides. Native support for nationwide QR payments in Southeast Asia and LATAM has driven a 719% quarter-over-quarter increase in usage. With over two million users and cross-sector partnerships with local services like Rappi and Vivaticket, Bybit is moving closer to making crypto as usable as “cash”.

Introducing Bybit Lite to Earn, Manage, and Trade

Zhou unveiled the upgraded Bybit App — a unified platform that streamlines both active trading and passive income generation. Bybit Lite is a new upgraded version for casual users and a reimagined Earn section, offering personalized strategies and simplified ways to activate idle capital.

A Key Partner of Mantle 2.0

A major announcement was Bybit’s deepened strategic alignment with Mantle This partnership sets the stage for what Zhou called “a bold new chapter in institutional-grade on-chain finance.” The launch of Mantle 2.0 comes with renewed leadership and tighter ecosystem integration — including Helen Liu, Co-CEO and Partner of Bybit and Emily Bao, Head of Spot and Web3 at Bybit stepping in as key advisors.

Together, Bybit, as one of Mantle’s ecosystem partners, will accelerate the development of decentralized finance by aligning infrastructure, liquidity, and governance. The collaboration aims to set new standards for scalability and compliance, while tapping into the growing demand for trust-driven DeFi solutions.

Reshaping the Standard

With this keynote, Bybit signaled more than just platform growth — it marked a shift in how the industry defines success. Zhou’s message was clear: The next era of crypto will be shaped by platforms that offer trust, usability, and true innovation.

“We believe crypto should be usable, secure, and powerful enough to serve everyone — from first-time users to institutional investors,” Zhou said. “Together with our community, we are rewriting the rules and reshaping the space for good.”

“I am excited that the native Kaia USDT has expanded into Flipster’s well-established trading platform,” said Dr. Sam Seo, Chairman of Kaia DLT Foundation. “As part of our goal to build a comprehensive global stablecoin network, Kaia will work with our excellent partners as the Kaia chain focuses on the composability of stablecoins to ensure the smoothest experience for users worldwide.”

To mark the launch, Flipster is offering exclusive campaigns to onboard users into the Kaia ecosystem, including offers for users who deposit and trade USDT on Kaia during the campaign period.

This partnership continues Flipster’s broader push to drive stablecoin adoption and expand multichain access. Together with Kaia, Flipster strengthens its commitment to bringing stablecoins closer to everyday use and expanding their utility across Asia.
