Strategic leadership appointment positions G-Knot to redefine digital security and identity management
G-Knot, a pioneering biometrics technology company developing the world’s first finger vein crypto wallet, today announced the appointment of Wes Kaplan as the company’s CEO. Kaplan, a globally recognized leader with expertise across fintech, digital assets, and traditional finance, will spearhead the global commercialization of G-Knot’s revolutionary biometric solutions. This strategic move comes as G-Knot prepares to launch its flagship crypto wallet product, setting a new standard for security in the crypto industry.
G-Knot is the exclusive licensee of eTunnel Inc., a Seoul-based global leader in biometric research and development, and is built on over a decade of research and development of cutting-edge finger vein technology. G-Knot leverages unforgeable biometric data to eliminate vulnerabilities, such as compromised private keys and recovery phrases, addressing a critical pain point in the digital asset industry. With cryptocurrency hacks resulting in over $1.4 billion in losses in 2025 alone, G-Knot’s finger vein crypto wallet introduces a transformative solution for secure self-custody. G-Knot’s goal is to bring its technology to market through consumer and enterprise-grade products, starting with the launch of the world’s first finger vein crypto wallet. This product is the first of many commercial use cases for biometric identification technology.
“G-Knot is poised to redefine security in the digital age, and I am thrilled to lead this mission,” said Wes Kaplan, CEO of G-Knot. “We are entering the market to solve the security challenges plaguing the cryptocurrency space. By replacing the need for recovery phrases with users’ unique biometric authentication, we’re not only solving today’s issues but also paving the way for broader applications in decentralized finance and identity management.”
The biometric technology that powers G-Knot has been validated at the highest levels, earning global recognition for reliability and innovation. In September 2024, G-Knot’s technology, developed by eTunnel, secured a prestigious contract with the United Nations’ International Telecommunication Union (ITU) to deploy biometric smart cards across UN organizations. Today, G-Knot is the only provider of commercial finger vein biometric solutions in the world.
“Kaplan’s proven track record in scaling innovative financial tech makes him the ideal leader to bring eTunnel’s technology to market,” said Youngkuk Kim the CEO of eTunnel. “As eTunnel continues to advance biometric research, G-Knot, under Wes’s leadership, will leverage the gold standard of biometric technology to deliver enterprise-grade and consumer-focused products that address the growing security needs of an increasingly digital world.”
Kaplan is a seasoned technology leader with deep experience across fintech, digital assets, and traditional finance. He has held executive roles at top firms including Cointelegraph, AscendEX, and Tradewind Markets, and began his career at J.P. Morgan and BNY Mellon. Most recently, Wes served as CEO of Cointelegraph, a premier global cryptocurrency media organization. His appointment signals G-Knot’s ambition to bridge the gap between cutting-edge biometrics and DeFi to create new and more secure opportunities for retail and institutional adoption.
About G-Knot
G-Knot is a pioneering biometric technology company redefining security and identity management for the digital age. G-knot was established to commercialize over a decade’s worth of biometrics development and innovation from its parent company, eTunnel Inc., a leading biometrics research and development firm based in Seoul, South Korea. G-Knot is bringing this technology to market through consumer and enterprise-grade products, starting with the launch of the world’s first finger vein crypto wallet. This product, designed to address critical security and usability issues in the cryptocurrency industry, is the first of many commercial use cases for biometric identification technology.

GUNZ, the L1 blockchain ecosystem that powers the groundbreaking AAA game Off The Grid (OTG), today announced the expansion of its $GUN token to the Solana blockchain. This strategic move brings part of the $GUN token’s circulating supply to Solana, enhancing accessibility for U.S. (and global) users while reinforcing GUNZ’s leadership in the blockchain gaming sector. On the 10th of July $GUN lands on Solana, bringing lightning-fast access and next-gen infrastructure to a whole new wave of gamers and community members.
Strategic Alignment with Solana: A Multi-Chain Vision
Under the bold banner, “$GUN is Coming to Solana,” GUNZ is embracing Solana’s high-speed, low-cost blockchain infrastructure and robust ecosystem to amplify its multi-chain strategy, aptly summarized as “Too Big for One Chain.” This move represents the latest step in a clear multichain strategy, setting the stage for additional expansions to other prominent blockchains in the future. The bridging process to Solana will be facilitated by LayerZero, a leader in blockchain interoperability and seamless cross-chain transactions.
Currently, $GUN is available on multiple blockchains and platforms, including GUNZ Layer 1 and AVAX C-chain.
This alignment radically increases accessibility to the token and unlocks new opportunities for partnerships, campaigns, and community engagement by leveraging Solana’s global reach.
To celebrate this milestone, GUNZ will launch a limited-edition Solana-themed NFT content pack. Details on how to claim this exclusive offering will be announced soon, adding excitement for the growing Off The Grid community.
Off The Grid and the GUNZ Ecosystem: A Clarified Vision
GUNZ is renowned for Off The Grid, the first AAA game with an onchain economy, available across platforms like Epic Games Store, Xbox, PlayStation, and soon Steam. Within OTG, the $GUN token serves as a utility token, enabling players to purchase in-game items, engage in asset trading, and participate in blockchain-powered gameplay interactions. Following the Solana integration, players will be able to deposit Solana-based $GUN directly into their in-game wallet, enabling fast, reliable, and convenient transactions within OTG’s immersive digital economy.
With over 17 million wallets registered in the GUNZ ecosystem, GUNZ is poised for strong growth. This milestone will boost ecosystem activity and token utility.
Leadership Perspective
“Launching $GUN on Solana reflects our long-term commitment to building a truly global, player-first ecosystem,” said Vlad Korolov, CEO at Gunzilla Games. “Solana’s speed and scalability allow us to reach new communities with greater efficiency and reliability. This is more than a technical upgrade—it’s a major step toward making blockchain gaming seamless, inclusive, and ready for the mainstream.”
Looking Ahead
GUNZ is set to share additional updates in the coming weeks, including details on the highly anticipated Steam release of Off The Grid and further global token availability. As the ecosystem gears up for mass adoption, the crypto community is encouraged to stay tuned for announcements that will solidify GUNZ’s position as a trailblazer in blockchain gaming.

No regulator has reviewed this material. This release is not an offer, solicitation, or investment advice, and $GUN is not offered to U.S. persons.

The Open Platform raises $28.5M in Series A equity funding round, showcasing investor confidence in TON’s ecosystem
- The equity round was led by Ribbit Capital, a leading fintech and crypto investor, with Pantera Capital also participating.
- The investment underscores strong confidence in The Open Platform’s continued development of the blockchain ecosystem in Telegram, being built on TON.
- The involvement of prominent investors and the raised capital will support the launch of TOP’s portfolio companies across the U.S., EU, and other key regions.
The Open Platform, the leading tech company developing TON-based innovations in Telegram, has announced the completion of its Series A and subsequent extension funding rounds, reaching a $1 billion valuation and becoming the first unicorn in the TON-based ecosystem in Telegram.
The Open Platform raised $28.5 million in an extended Series A funding round, led by Ribbit Capital, with Pantera Capital also participating. Including this latest raise and previous seed investments, The Open Platform has now secured over $70 million in total funding. These investments demonstrate the confidence that leading investors have in The Open Platform’s ability to spearhead the growth of the blockchain ecosystem in Telegram. This ecosystem is being built on TON Blockchain – a fully decentralized and highly scalable blockchain that is the exclusive blockchain partner of Telegram Messenger.
The current strategic focus of The Open Platform centers on geographical expansion. The involvement of prominent investors, along with the newly raised capital, will support the launch of TOP’s portfolio companies across the U.S., EU, and other key regions — in alignment with TON Foundation’s global vision. This expansion will involve significant investment in go-to-market strategies, regulatory licensing, compliance infrastructure, and security enhancements, all aimed at ensuring sustainable growth and long-term success in these new jurisdictions.
Andrew Rogozov, CEO and Founder of The Open Platform, said, “This investment supports our long-term strategy to scale the adoption of blockchain-based products by leveraging the power of Telegram as a distribution channel. By combining TON Blockchain with Telegram’s global reach, we’re building both the infrastructure and the consumer-facing apps needed to onboard a billion users to crypto.”
The Open Platform is driving the growth of the TON-based ecosystem within Telegram, building both core infrastructure and consumer-facing apps across finance, gaming, and entertainment. Products that The Open Platform has powered include Wallet in Telegram, a digital asset solution seamlessly embedded into Telegram’s interface; Tonkeeper, TON’s leading non-custodial crypto wallet; STON.fi, the leading swap dApp on TON and the developer of a liquidity aggregation protocol, Omniston; Getgems, TON’s foremost NFT marketplace; Tribute, a monetization platform for creators in Telegram; and Notcoin, a viral Tap-to-Earn game, along with many more products.
By integrating blockchain technology into everyday digital experience, The Open Platform is creating a seamless, scalable platform designed for a billion users, accelerating the mainstream adoption of crypto — expanding global access to financial services, and enabling a new generation of builders and developers to build the next wave of consumer dApps.
This latest investment from Ribbit Capital, which has previously provided early-stage investment to Coinbase, Nubank, and Revolut, amongst many others, and Pantera Capital, is a testament to the potential these investors see in the integration of blockchain technology into a messenger application with over a billion users.
Micky Malka, Founder of Ribbit Capital, said, “We back teams that reimagine how the world experiences money and technology. The Open Platform’s vision of building an intuitive and open platform that enables a robust digital ecosystem to form within Telegram — a platform used by hundreds of millions — opens a new frontier of opportunities for builders and users on a global scale.”
“We’re thrilled to back this exceptional team led by Andrew. The opportunity to support groundbreaking tech and financial products that reach 1 billion people is inspiring,” said Ryan Barney, Partner at Pantera Capital. ”We’re excited to collaborate with the TOP team and strengthen our commitment to TON and Telegram’s ecosystems.”
TON Blockchain has been the subject of increased institutional interest throughout this year. In March, TON Foundation announced that several leading investors, including Sequoia Capital, Ribbit Capital, Benchmark, Draper Associates, Kingsway, Vy Capital, Libertus Capital, CoinFund, SkyBridge, Hypersphere, and Karatage, have acquired and now hold $400 million worth of Toncoin, signaling growing interest in the TON-based ecosystem in Telegram.
About The Open Platform:

Cooking.City, a recently introduced fair-launch platform, emphasizes ecosystem sustainability and long-term development. The project is backed by institutional investors including Jump and CMT Digital.
Today, Cooking.City fully launched, revealing its core mechanisms and points system to better align incentives between traders and developers while creating new ways to participate in on-chain launches.
Bringing Back Value Redistribution to Solana Fair Launches
Cooking.City is more than just another launchpad. It is a community-first platform focused on value redistribution instead of value extraction.
With Referral System, Cooking.City shares platform revenues with users. Referrers earn fee rebates and points based on their invitees’ trading activities. As the only launchpad which hasn’t launched its official token, Cooking.City aims to attract early users through highly-anticipated airdrops, encouraging interaction between traders and quality token launches.
Users can check the rules of rewards and point history on the dashboard every day. Top referrers and traders will receive significant reward multipliers to further amplify their future rewards.
Cooking Points: A Multi-Layered Incentive System
The Cooking Points system is now live. It rewards users who actively engage with the platform across multiple dimensions.
- Trading on Cooking.City: Higher trading volumes bring more points. And high market cap with healthy trading volume tokens are designated as Michelin Tokens, and trading them can offer bonus points multipliers.
- Referrals: Users can share referral codes and earn up to 10x points multipliers based on referred users’ trading activity.
- Social Quests: Liking, commenting, sharing official tweets, or using the #CookingCity tag unlocks additional point rewards.
Each user has a personal dashboard that updates daily. Points are retroactively calculated based on activity since launch and will be tied directly to future airdrop events.
Conviction Pool: A Capital-based Launch Feature to Signify Good Launch
Cooking.City’s Conviction Pool is a new mechanism that holds developers accountable and helps traders to tell quality launches from random ones.
- Developer Commitment: To opt in, developers can choose to deposit some SOL and set a price that signals their conviction in the token.
- Soft Price Protection: If the token graduates, the conviction pool will activate. If the price drops to a set level, users can swap their bought tokens into SOL from the conviction pool, acting like an insurance, establishing benchmarks for quality in the market. If the price does not fall below the set level, the developer can claim back the SOL from the conviction pool.
This design filters out low-effort launches, protects traders, and signals serious commitment from builders.
The Birthplace of Onchain Conviction
Cooking.City is creating a marketplace of convictions, allowing builders and investors to actualize and capture their faith through launches and trading. The launchpad is the first step towards its greater on-chain nation, effectively allowing more convicted projects to enter crypto through Cooking.City.
The team expects to diversify approaches of asset issuance and capital matchmaking through their evolving launch infrastructure and mechanisms.
About Cooking.City
Cooking.City is a pioneering platform designed to revolutionize token fair launches. By aligning values between builders, believers, and traders, Cooking.City creates new opportunities to reward quality launches and early support on token projects, encouraging builders and investors to grow together.

Oasis Protocol Foundation Launches ROFL Mainnet: Verifiable OffChain Compute Framework Powering AI Applications
Positioned as the “Trustless AWS,” ROFL enables developers to build privacy-preserving consumer and finance applications by leveraging Trusted Execution Environments (TEEs)
Oasis Protocol Foundation, steward of the AI-focused and privacy-first Oasis Layer 1 blockchain, has announced the official mainnet launch of Runtime Offchain Logic (ROFL), a transformative new framework designed to enable developers to perform complex computations offchain while retaining blockchain-level trust, verification, and privacy.
ROFL bridges a critical gap in Web3: how to run intensive workloads, such as AI model training, inference, and data analysis, without sacrificing decentralization or trust. With ROFL, developers can execute resource-intensive operations off-chain within secure enclaves, then cryptographically verify and connect the results back to smart contracts on-chain, unlocking entirely new use cases across the AI and blockchain landscape.
“When we think about the future of our digital world, consumers will continue to value convenience and ease of use over anything,” said Jernej Kos, co-founder of Oasis Protocol Foundation. “Which is why it’s critical for developers to focus on building applications that already have privacy and transparency built into their infrastructure. ROFL is a production-ready platform that will serve as plug-and-play infrastructure for building the next wave of AI applications.”
Early Builders on ROFL Are Already Redefining What’s Possible
Two standout projects already building on ROFL underscore the platform’s versatility:
- Zeph, a privacy-first AI companion platform, utilizes ROFL to maintain user data confidentiality through trusted execution environments. In a space plagued by security concerns, a 2023 study in the Indian Journal of Psychological Medicine found 74% of companion apps posed “Critical” or “High” security risks. Zeph ensures sensitive data remains protected and verifiable.
- WT3, an autonomous AI agent for decentralized trading strategies, is leveraging ROFL to deliver fully private, trustless key management and trade execution. The project is funded with $100,000 in seed capital from the Oasis Protocol Foundation to accelerate development.
And the pipeline is just getting started. ROFL is designed to support a wide variety of future products, including game hosting, MCP servers, LLM oracles, price oracles, AI-powered chatbots, and more.
ROFL: A “Trustless AWS” for AI Applications
What sets ROFL apart is its integration with the Oasis TEE (Trusted Execution Environment) Cloud, a robust infrastructure offering developers a full end-to-end TEE-as-a-Service. This makes ROFL the “Trustless AWS” for AI applications, a white-label compute layer where developers can deploy powerful services with built-in privacy, trust, and scalability.
By combining blockchain’s integrity with the processing power of offchain computation, ROFL offers a breakthrough solution to two of today’s biggest tech challenges: the blockchain ecosystem’s limited application layer and AI’s pervasive trust issues.
Builders can start exploring how to leverage ROFL at the oasis.net/rofl-deck.
About Oasis Protocol Foundation
Oasis Protocol Foundation is a steward of Oasis Network, a Layer 1 blockchain platform focused on privacy, scalability, and versatility. It offers the first production-ready confidential EVM (Ethereum Virtual Machine), Sapphire, enabling privacy-preserving smart contracts and decentralized applications. The network is expanding its focus to include AI applications, positioning itself at the intersection of blockchain, privacy, and artificial intelligence.

Running from July 1 to August 31, 2025, the campaign is designed to remove entry barriers for new traders by automatically upgrading every new account to VIP 2.

According to PrimeXBT, the campaign delivers real value by giving new traders access to some of the best trading conditions in the industry. From day one, the broker empowers users to start stronger, trade smarter, and build early momentum, combining cost-efficiency with a professional-grade experience designed to support their trading journey.
PrimeXBT ranks among the lowest-cost options on the market, outperforming major platforms in fee efficiency. For example, a $1,000,000 Bitcoin trade under VIP 2 would generate $300 in savings compared to standard fees. These savings scale significantly with volume, helping both casual and active traders reduce trading costs without compromising execution quality.
With meaningful savings and access to top-tier tools and conditions, PrimeXBT is lowering the cost of entry while raising the standard of what new traders can expect. This campaign reinforces the broker’s ongoing commitment to making high-performance trading more accessible, empowering, and competitive for all.

AI-powered web3 platform CorgiAI has announced the launch of PAWS, a community-led initiative inviting the Cronos community to submit strategic proposals for improving the Cronos chain ecosystem. The campaign gives participants the opportunity to share their insights and recommendations for enhancing the Cronos ecosystem.
To maximize participation and proposal quality, PAWS will take the form of an incentivized program. During the course of the campaign from 2 – 16 July, the top 10 contributors will be selected based on proposal quality and impact. AI messenger Corgi President will evaluate submissions based on a range of criteria including innovation, feasibility, technical merit and potential ecosystem impact.
The event is designed to directly engage the community in the development of Cronos. Inviting Cronos users and builders to share their insights enables them to voice their ideas and have a say in the future direction of its growing ecosystem. Anyone who holds $CORGIAI can participate in the event, using their tokens to submit proposals here: https://corgiai.xyz/chat/ptw/
Gwyn, founder of CorgiAI said: “PAWS layers on an AI engine that listens to every community insight, scores each submission and surfaces the gems. It’s the simplest way to turn collective intelligence into concrete upgrades. Our Corgi President AI evaluates each proposal on merit, but the creativity comes from Cronos users themselves. Together we’re building a feedback loop where great ideas rise quickly and Cronos keeps setting the pace for user-centric chains”
“The Cronos network has improved greatly over the past year, aided by infra developments that have slashed gas fees by 10x and reduced block times by a corresponding amount to deliver sub-second performance. Now it’s time to match that technical progress with user-driven innovation — and that’s exactly what PAWS is here to unlock.”
The use of the Corgi President AI messenger allows for timely responses to proposals, keeping community members informed every step of the way. Not only does this system provide a forum for Cronos users to express their ideas, but it empowers Cronos developers and builders who can contribute their own ideas for improvements.
CorgiAI’s previous campaigns have attracted significant network-wide interest including “Who’s POTUS,” which tasked users with predicting the outcome of the US presidential election, and AI agent game Bark4Bonus. The PAWS campaign is open to $CORGIAI token-holders, who currently number around 50,000, and who have staked more than 10 billion tokens onchain.
The PAWS campaign will provide an efficient system for gathering community proposals and spotlighting ideas that have the potential to strengthen the Cronos network. This will help to improve the Cronos ecosystem, giving core developers an insight into areas for improvement and strengthening Cronos for the benefit of all users.
About CorgiAI
Corgi AI is the leading community memecoin on Cronos and a top 20 memecoin by market cap across all chains. Backed by Cronos Labs as part of the Cronos Accelerator Program, CorgiAI is creating a growing ecosystem of AI products powered by its native token that provides new opportunities for community engagement.
