Colb Launches Colbee, a Digital Financial AI Agent That Turns Conversation Into Onchain Transactions
Colb today announced the launch of Colbee, its digital financial AI agent, available now on WhatsApp . Colbee is a financial AI agent designed to make complex DeFi actions and onchain products easier to use. Rather than requiring users to understand and interact directly with complex decentralized platforms, it creates a conversational path between the user and supported financial products and services. The launch addresses a structural challenge in the development of tokenized finance. Tokenization has created new possibilities for ownership and access to financial assets, yet the infrastructure supporting onchain finance remains complex. Through Colbee, users can explore and access supported products, including Colb’s pre-IPO structured products, without directly navigating the underlying infrastructure while remaining in control of each decision. Supported transactions are initiated by client instruction and prepared by Colbee for the client’s own review and signature; the agent does not exercise discretionary investment management. Extending Beyond Colb’s Ecosystem Colbee was initially developed to serve Colb’s qualified investor base and has executed more than $40 million in crypto and tokenized asset transactions based on client instructions and signature. Concrete has used Colbee to allocate USD1 from the USD1 RWA Vault to Colb Staked European Private Credit (CSEPC). Colbee has also added Concrete products to its catalog, giving users direct access through chat to the Concrete DeFi USDT vault, a delta neutral strategy that accepts USDT, and the Concrete WBTC vault. On BNB Chain, supported products can be accessed through WhatsApp, with PancakeSwap and PancakeSwap X providing the relevant onchain infrastructure for liquidity, execution and staking where applicable. Colbee today supports 10,163 distinct onchain actions across Ethereum, BNB Chain and Polygon: 63 product actions covering tokenized pre-IPO subscriptions, Colb strategies, $USC minting and bridging, vaults and staking, alongside 3,368 swap routes and 6,732 bridge routes between the three chains, a catalog that grows with every integration. The development reflects Colb’s broader vision that the next generation of financial interfaces will be built around investor intent rather than the complexity of financial infrastructure. “We built a financial system that runs on a conversation. Financial services became very sophisticated, but the interfaces did not. They create friction for humans and are useless to AI agents. We are changing that today. Everyone else is building the conversation. We built what the conversation connects to,” said Yulgan Lira, Co-Founder and CEO of Colb. A New Interface for Financial Markets Colbee represents Colb’s broader strategy to make increasingly sophisticated financial infrastructure accessible through a more intuitive interaction model. Rather than requiring investors to navigate wallets, networks, decentralized exchanges and other onchain components, Colbee allows them to interact with the relevant infrastructure through a familiar conversational environment. “Colbee is our first step toward a financial system in which investors express their intent through AI agents while remaining firmly in control of every decision. Ask Colbee to purchase tokenized Tesla, SpaceX or Anthropic, and it finds the route onchain and prepares the transaction. You need zero knowledge of the process. You sign, you own it,” Lira added. Originally developed in Geneva for Colb’s qualified investor base, Colbee is now available to a broader audience through WhatsApp. Technology and Security Colbee launches on WhatsApp, but the conversation is only the surface. Beneath it runs a robust transaction engine, built so that convenience never comes at the cost of control. Colbee is non-discretionary: it operates only on user instructions and does not make investment decisions on behalf of users. Investor assets remain subject to the custody, issuance and legal structures applicable to each underlying financial product and are not held by Colbee. Access to specific products may be subject to eligibility, identity verification and jurisdictional restrictions set out in the product documentation. Colbee never holds an investor’s keys or funds. Each transaction is prepared as an unsigned request, checked against the investor’s balance, approvals and applicable product limits, and simulated onchain before being presented for review. The investor then reviews and signs the transaction using their own wallet on Colb’s signing page. Unsigned requests expire within minutes if they are not used. Transfers can only be sent to addresses entered by the investor. Every Colbee response passes through deterministic safeguards designed to prevent fabricated transaction confirmations and unverified links from being delivered. Access is tied to a verified wallet, and regulated products are restricted to compliance-approved wallets. Availability Colbee is available today on WhatsApp. It understands messages in any language and currently responds in English. Add Colbee on WhatsApp now . Access is open, with the full catalog of actions available on connection of a wallet, swaps, bridges, transfers, staking and vaults included. Products that carry their own eligibility requirements, such as tokenized pre-IPO direct subscriptions at colb.finance, need additional verification. About Colb Colb Asset SA is a Swiss financial technology company established in Geneva in 2020, building compliant infrastructure for digital finance. It develops colb.finance, its platform for onchain investments and services, operated by Colb Asset SA as a supervised financial intermediary; and Colbee, a broader conversational AI for finance that reaches beyond Colb’s own products into swaps, staking and crypto markets at large. Through colb.finance, Colb holds over $108 million in total value locked (TVL), the value of assets held on its onchain infrastructure, and ranks fourth globally in tokenized private equity, according to RWA.xyz.

15 Years Beyond: FISG Hosts "The Victory Season" Client Appreciation Event in Thailand
InterStellar Group (FISG) hosted026 annual client appreciation event, “Come On FISG: The Victory Season,” on Saturday, August 29, 2026, at Mövenpick BDMS Wellness Resort Bangkok. Bringing together clientsb, partners, and members of the FISG team, the event celebrated the Group’s achievements over the past year while looking ahead to its next chapter of global development. More than a celebration of 15 years in the industry, the event reflected FISG’s long-term ambition to build the first 100-year brand in the industry, a vision built on resilience, continuous innovation, global compliance, and sustainable growth. 15 Years of Growth - A Beginning, Not a Finish Line The year 2026 marks FISG’s 15th anniversary , a significant milestone in the Group’s journey. Coinciding with a global football tournament year, and the global brand ambassadorship collaboration with international football superstar Andrés Iniesta has been successfully executed. The FISG chose football as the central theme of the celebration, reflecting the values that have shaped its development: teamwork, determination, execution, seizing opportunities, and striving for victory. For FISG, however, 15 years represents more than an anniversary. It is a starting point for a much longer journey. With a vision of becoming the industry’s first 100-year brand, FISG is focused on building an organization capable of creating lasting value across generations continuously evolving its business, technology, compliance framework, and client experience to meet the changing demands of global financial markets. Strengthening Global Compliance Through Continuous Evolution As FISG continues to expand its international presence, global compliance remains a fundamental pillar of its long-term strategy. The Group continues to strengthen and evolve its regulatory framework across four regulatory jurisdictions, reflecting its commitment to responsible business development and higher standards of operational governance. Rather than viewing compliance as a static requirement, FISG approaches it as an ongoing process of continuous global compliance iteration adapting its systems, processes, and operational standards as regulatory expectations and international markets continue to evolve. This approach supports FISG’s broader ambition to build a financial services brand that can grow sustainably while maintaining trust, transparency, and accountability across different markets. Technology Innovation Designed Around the Trading Experience Technology is another key pillar of FISG’s long-term development. As financial markets become increasingly sophisticated, traders expect faster execution, greater stability, and an increasingly seamless trading experience. In response, FISG continues to invest in proprietary technology and infrastructure designed to meet the evolving needs of modern traders. A key development is Flux 1.0 Execution Accelerator, FISG’s proprietary technology solution designed to enhance execution performance and contribute to a continuously evolving trading experience. Through ongoing technological innovation, FISG aims not simply to keep pace with changes in the CFDs online trading industry, but to continuously improve the way clients interact with global markets. For FISG, technology is not a one-time upgrade. It is an ongoing process of innovation with each iteration designed to bring a more efficient, responsive, and seamless trading experience. Celebrating a Year of Partnership and Achievement One of the major highlights of the evening was the FISG Opening Ceremony, which combined the elegance of live violin music with the energy and excitement of competitive sport. The celebration also featured a special appearance by Datsakorn Thonglao, legendary former player of the Thailand National Football Team. Entertainment throughout the evening included a performance by FISG’s own employee band, AJ & Friends, followed by a special performance from renowned Thai artist Tor – Saksit Vejsupaporn. The evening concluded with a DJ set by DJ Phum, a talented member of the FISG team. The event provided an opportunity for FISG to express its appreciation to the clients and partners who have contributed to the Group’s journey and continued growth. Beyond Where We Began - Master the Moment FISG’s 2026 milestones also extended beyond its business and technological development. The Group further strengthened its global brand presence by appointing Andrés Iniesta, the legendary Spanish football icon, as its Global Ambassador under the common vision “Master the Moment.” FISG also became an Official Sponsor of Pattani FC for the 2026–2027 Thai League season under the banner “Beyond Where We Began.” These partnerships reflect FISG’s belief in the values shared between sport and financial markets: discipline, preparation, execution, resilience, and the ability to perform when the moment matters most. Looking Beyond 15 Years Every season brings moments that can change the game. For FISG-InterStellar Group, the past 15 years have built the foundation. The next decades will be defined by continuous evolution strengthening global compliance, advancing proprietary technology, improving the trading experience, and building a brand designed to stand the test of time. The ambition is not simply to celebrate 15 years. It is to build the foundation for the next 100 years. Come On FISG: The Victory Season - Stepping into the season of victory together.

STS Digital Launches Smart Bitcoin, Expanding Its Structured Products Offering with Quantitative Investment Strategies
STS Digital, a Bermuda Monetary Authority regulated principal trading firm specialising in institutional digital asset derivatives, today announced the launch of its Quantitative Investment Strategies (QIS) offering - rules-based, systematically executed derivatives strategies across spot, options and other derivatives, available to professional and institutional clients. Each QIS strategy follows a methodology defined in advance, covering asset selection, rebalancing and risk parameters; STS Digital exercises no discretionary investment judgment within the strategies. Strategies are available through OTC derivatives instruments built on STS Digital's regulated structured products infrastructure, spanning a universe of more than 400 digital assets. From Bitcoin to Smart Bitcoin The flagship strategy at launch is Smart Bitcoin, a volatility target strategy. Rather than holding a fixed Bitcoin position, Smart Bitcoin adjusts exposure against a defined volatility target: when market volatility rises, the strategy systematically reduces exposure, and when volatility falls, it increases it. The result is an allocation whose risk level is calibrated toward a consistent target rather than left to move with the market. Volatility targeting is a long-established technique in systematic strategies, used for decades in index-linked products and institutional portfolios in traditional markets. “Institutional clients keep asking the same question, how do we hold Bitcoin without inheriting the full swing of its volatility?” says Maxime Seiler, CEO and Co-Founder of STS Digital. “Smart Bitcoin answers that with a technique traditional markets have relied on for decades. The strategy targets a defined level of risk and adjusts Bitcoin exposure systematically as volatility moves, so allocators get exposure with a risk profile they can plan around. That is what we mean by Smart Bitcoin: not a view on the price, but discipline in how to get exposure.” As institutional clients increasingly diversify risk, both across asset classes and within digital assets themselves, STS Digital is developing a broader range of systematic strategies to meet that demand, from currency-debasement hedging to options-based income, with further launches to follow. Systematic by Design A QIS strategy applies a systematic methodology with strictly defined risk parameters and rebalancing constraints, accessible to clients through bilateral OTC transactions with STS as principal counterparty. Unlike traditional structured products, which typically carry a fixed maturity and a defined payoff, QIS strategies are rules-based, systematically executed and transparently priced. The methodologies are not limited to spot exposure. Drawing on STS Digital's core options and derivatives business, QIS strategies can reference derivatives-based approaches, from systematic option overlays such as covered calls to volatility strategies and defined-outcome structures, all executed under the same predefined rules. “QIS is about turning a market thesis into a repeatable process,” said Jeremy Dominh, Head of Structured Products and QIS at STS Digital. “We establish the methodology, risk parameters and rebalancing rules upfront, then execute systematically. That consistency and transparency is exactly what institutional clients entering digital assets are asking for.” Designed for Institutional Access Institutional clients can be onboarded directly by STS Digital and access QIS through its platform, via UI, API and voice, with valuation available through traditional venues like Bloomberg and Telekurs, and compatibility with conventional custody arrangements. The QIS offering is delivered under STS Digital's DABA Class F licence, issued by the Bermuda Monetary Authority. Smart Bitcoin is not about making Bitcoin more complicated. It is about making the approach smarter. About STS Digital Ltd. STS Digital Ltd. is a regulated principal trading firm specialised in digital asset derivatives and structured products, providing institutional-grade market access to professional clients and financial institutions. Clients can trade more than 400 tokens across vanilla and exotic options, spot, and structured products through a unified platform spanning UI, API, and voice channels. Founded by derivatives veterans, STS Digital delivers deep liquidity, competitive pricing, and rigorous risk management to ensure a seamless trading experience. STS Digital Ltd. is licensed under the Bermuda Monetary Authority (BMA), holding a DABA F Licence.

RWA INC and Sproutly Expand Collaboration to Bring Real-World Environmental Assets On-Chain
RWA INC and Sproutly INC are expanding their collaboration around tokenized real-world environmental assets backed by measurable activity in the real world. At the center of that collaboration is Sproutly, which enters this next phase from an established operating base: a live Web3 ecosystem built on more than three years of development, real-world environmental infrastructure, existing commercial activity and infrastructure already connecting real-world environmental assets to digital ownership and on-chain participation. Its foundation includes more than 711,250 tokenized agroforestry systems, more than 10 million square metres of restored land and blockchain infrastructure connecting environmental assets with digital ownership, measurable impact and on-chain participation. Its next stage of growth is built around three applications on one shared infrastructure: a consumer platform for individual tree ownership and lifecycle tracking, a business platform for climate impact management and reporting, and a partner SaaS platform that enables external climate and nature organizations to bring their own projects and physical impact assets on-chain. Three applications. One infrastructure. A scalable platform designed to bring environmental assets and impact projects from around the world on-chain. “Sproutly is not simply launching another tokenized asset project. We have built the operating infrastructure around real environmental assets, real activity and real participation. With three applications sharing one platform, every new user, business and partner can strengthen the same ecosystem. That is the foundation for our next phase of growth.” Jaap Harmsma, CTO, Sproutly Building on this foundation, the next phase will focus on turning this existing infrastructure into a broader distribution and adoption engine. Sproutly will expand its consumer and business applications while opening its partner platform to external organizations bringing new environmental projects and physical impact assets on-chain. Further details regarding token structure, eligibility, partnerships and launch mechanics will be communicated through Sproutly’s official channels. For RWA INC, Sproutly represents more than a single project. It is a live example of how tokenization can move beyond financial assets and into large-scale real-world environmental infrastructure. By combining blockchain rails with measurable impact data and digital asset design, the model shows how RWAs can become more transparent, accessible and scalable. Sproutly: sproutlyrwa.com RWA INC: rwa.inc Launch platform: launch.rwa.inc About RWA INC RWA INC, operated by RWA Global Inc., is a real-world asset infrastructure and consultancy platform focused on tokenization, digital asset launches and market infrastructure connecting real-world activity to blockchain markets.

X Travel Management Operates 24-Hour VIP Travel Desk Across Five Global Hubs
X Travel Management, a VIP and luxury travel company headquartered in New York, coordinates private aviation, ground transport and security services for clients from five international hubs and says it serves more than 100 cities. The company operates offices in New York, London, Dubai, Paris and Tokyo, each staffed with regional specialists, and runs an operations centre 24 hours a day. Its services cover private jet and helicopter charter, chauffeur services, security drivers, close protection, business travel management and yacht travel management. X Travel Management states that clients receive a response to an inquiry within one hour. The company was founded by James Kim. It grew from a single New York office through partnerships in the city’s event and government sectors before opening its other four hubs, according to the company. There was a point where we came very close to not making it. The recovery was down to a small number of people who stood by the company. — James Kim, founder, X Travel Management The company says its operating model places the coordination of aviation, ground transport and protection with one team rather than across separate vendors, on the basis that most failures in VIP travel occur at the handover between suppliers rather than within any one of them. In New York the company arranges helicopter movements from Teterboro, Westchester and Manhattan heliports and ground transport across the Tri-State area. The company says each hub is staffed by regional specialists who handle local customs and logistics, and that a single operations centre holds one service standard across all five. It takes bookings across its full service range from each hub. About X Travel Management X Travel Management is a VIP and luxury travel company headquartered in New York, with hubs in London, Dubai, Paris and Tokyo. It arranges private aviation, helicopter, chauffeur, security and yacht travel for corporate, government, family office and private clients. More information is available at xtravelmanagement.com.

VeraData Announces 20-Year Milestone in AI-Powered Nonprofit Fundraising
VeraData Holdings today announced a 20-year milestone in applying machine learning to nonprofit donor acquisition and retention, a capability the company has operated since its founding in 2007. The announcement comes as major fundraising platforms rush to embed artificial intelligence into their products and sector research shows organizations integrating AI into fundraising are reporting 20 to 30 percent increases in donations through improved targeting and personalized outreach. Michael Peterman built VeraData on that exact premise in 2007. "We have been doing this for nearly two decades," said Peterman, Founder and CEO of VeraData Holdings. "The tools have different names now. The underlying discipline is the same one we built this company around from day one. Data is the asset. The model is the engine. And the nonprofit sector has always deserved access to both." What Peterman recognized at VeraData's founding was a structural inequity that most of the business world had never considered: the same AI and machine learning capabilities that Fortune 500 companies deploy to identify their best customers, predict purchase behavior, and optimize acquisition costs had no equivalent in the nonprofit sector. Organizations raising money for humanitarian aid, medical research, veteran services, and animal welfare were making donor acquisition decisions the way commercial marketers did in the 1980s, relying on basic demographic segmentation, historical response rates, and instinct. VeraData was built to close that gap entirely. What 20 Years of Sector-Specific Data Actually Means The distinction Peterman draws between VeraData and the wave of AI tools now entering the nonprofit market is not about technology. It is about data. General-purpose AI models trained on commercial consumer behavior do not translate cleanly to charitable giving. A person who buys premium consumer goods does not necessarily have a higher probability of making a major gift to a humanitarian organization. The behavioral signals that predict philanthropic giving are sector-specific, accumulated over years of campaign history, and require models trained on nonprofit data to interpret correctly. VeraData's proprietary database and predictive modeling infrastructure has been built on nearly two decades of nonprofit-exclusive campaign performance. The company's team of more than 25 PhD mathematicians does not work on general-purpose AI problems. They work exclusively on the mathematics of donor acquisition, lapse reactivation, and major donor pipeline development for mission-driven organizations. That depth of specialization is what produces the outcomes VeraData puts behind its performance-based pricing model: routinely doubling or tripling an organization's active donor pool while reducing the cost of acquiring donors by 20 to 30 percent. Those are not projections derived from sector averages. They are outcomes the company is willing to guarantee, charging clients only when results are delivered. "The organizations that have been using data science in fundraising for years already have a compounding advantage over the ones just starting now," Peterman says. "Every campaign makes the model smarter. Every donor interaction adds signal. The flywheel is real, and it takes time to build. The nonprofits that started late will spend years closing the gap." Three Problems AI Actually Solves in Fundraising Peterman is precise about where AI delivers genuine value in nonprofit fundraising, as opposed to where it generates activity without outcomes. Prospecting is the most obvious application and the one where VeraData's two-decade data advantage is most pronounced. Identifying which individuals outside an organization's current donor base have the highest statistical probability of making an initial gift, given their behavioral, demographic, and transactional characteristics, is a problem that machine learning solves with far greater precision than any manual segmentation approach. The difference in acquisition cost between a well-modeled prospecting campaign and a broadly targeted one compounds across the full donor file over time. Lapse reactivation is the most underutilized opportunity in the sector. Most organizations treat lapsed donors as a homogeneous group and apply the same reactivation messaging uniformly. Behavioral modeling reveals that lapsed donors have widely varying reactivation probability based on how long they have been lapsed, what their giving history looked like, and what external signals correlate with renewed giving intent. Targeting reactivation spend on the highest-probability segment rather than the broadest one dramatically changes the economics of the program. Major donor pipeline development is where AI creates the most long-term value and where most organizations remain almost entirely data-blind. Identifying mid-level donors who have the behavioral and demographic characteristics of eventual major donors, years before they make a transformational gift, allows organizations to invest in those relationships at the right time rather than discovering the opportunity after it has already matured. "The data exists to answer all three of these questions with precision," Peterman says. "The organizations that build the infrastructure to use it well right now are going to look very different in five years from the ones that don't." The Integration Advantage What separates VeraData's AI platform from the point solutions entering the market in 2026 is that the data science does not operate in isolation. Through The VeraData Group, which includes Faircom New York, Teal Media, and Avalon Consulting, the predictive modeling outputs feed directly into creative strategy, channel selection, production, and campaign execution under a single accountable structure. That integration matters because the most common failure mode in data-driven fundraising is not a bad model. It is a good model handed to a creative or production partner who has no visibility into what the data says and no incentive to act on it. When the entire chain from insight to outcome sits inside one enterprise, accountability is no longer diffuse and the gap between what the data recommends and what actually gets executed closes to near zero. VeraData stands alone in the nonprofit sector with both SOC2 and HIPAA compliance, ensuring unparalleled data safety and integrity for clients across every vertical the company serves, including healthcare-adjacent and social services organizations that handle sensitive constituent data as a matter of course. VeraData now serves more than 400 nonprofit organizations nationwide that collectively raise more than $1 billion in annual philanthropic giving. Peterman was named EY US Entrepreneur of the Year 2026 Florida Award winner and advances to the national competition at the EY Strategic Growth Forum in November 2026, where high-growth CEOs, Fortune 1000 executives, and investors converge to recognize the country's most consequential company builders.

RWA Inc. Announces the Launch of RWA CHAIN to Connect Real-World Production Directly With Global Capital
RWA Inc ., a global real-world asset infrastructure and tokenization company, today announced the launch of RWA CHAIN , a new blockchain infrastructure initiative designed around one of the largest opportunities in the emerging real-world asset economy: connecting production directly with capital . Real-world value begins with production. Businesses manufacture. Infrastructure gets built. Energy gets generated. Real estate gets developed. Technology gets created. Intellectual property is produced. RWA CHAIN is being introduced as an infrastructure layer designed to bring these two worlds closer together, creating a network where real-world production, asset structuring, advisory, capital formation, and blockchain infrastructure can increasingly operate together. “We believe the next evolution of the RWA industry is not simply about putting assets on-chain. It is about connecting the people and companies producing real economic value with the capital that can help them grow.” Kevin Yunai, Founder & CEO, RWA Inc. RWA Inc. Has Built the Foundation. RWA CHAIN Is the Next Chapter RWA Inc. has already built an ecosystem around the real-world asset lifecycle, including tokenization infrastructure, private-market opportunities, investor infrastructure, and advisory capabilities. The company's platform is positioned around onboarding, structuring, tokenization , distribution, reporting, and ongoing investor engagement. The company has also established a highly selective approach to opportunities, stating that less than 0.5% of projects pass its four-stage institutional due-diligence framework before reaching investors. That experience provides the foundation for RWA CHAIN. The chain is being built around the lessons RWA Inc. has gained from working with real assets, real businesses, investors, advisors, and capital markets. The objective is to bring the infrastructure closer to the source of economic value. From Production to Capital For decades, the relationship between production and capital has remained fragmented. A company may have a valuable business, significant assets, or a compelling opportunity for growth, yet accessing the right capital can require navigating banks, funds, brokers, intermediaries, and fragmented private markets. At the same time, investors seeking exposure to productive assets often face limited access, complex structures, and information asymmetry. RWA CHAIN is designed around a simple proposition: Production should be able to connect more efficiently with capital. The architecture of the RWA economy can increasingly connect production with the assets that support it, the structures that make those assets investable, the capital required to scale them, and the markets through which that capital can participate. This creates a broader economic pathway: Production → Assets → Structuring → Capital → Distribution → Liquidity → Growth Blockchain becomes the infrastructure connecting these layers. This is the larger opportunity behind RWA CHAIN. Beyond Tokenization RWA Inc. believes tokenization is a tool, not the final destination. Putting an asset on-chain does not automatically make it a good investment. A token cannot fix poor business fundamentals. Technology cannot substitute for due diligence. And capital cannot replace strategic expertise. Real opportunity is to build an ecosystem where technology, advisory, and capital work together. That means beginning with the underlying economic activity and understanding what is being produced, who is producing it, what assets support that production, what capital is required, how the opportunity should be structured, who is qualified to participate, and how investors can receive transparent information throughout the lifecycle. The objective is to create a stronger connection between real economic activity and the infrastructure required to finance, structure, distribute, and scale it. RWA CHAIN is designed around this complete lifecycle. RWA Inc. Is Disrupting the Grant Model One of the significant shifts behind RWA CHAIN is RWA Inc.'s approach to supporting projects. The traditional Web3 model has frequently relied on grants as a primary mechanism for ecosystem growth. Fund the project. Let the team build. Hope adoption follows. RWA Inc. believes the RWA industry requires something more sophisticated. The future is not simply about giving projects grants. It is about giving them the right advisory, infrastructure, and access to become stronger businesses. This represents a fundamental change in mindset. Instead of asking, “How much funding can we give this project?” , RWA Inc. wants to ask a more fundamental question: “What does this project need to become investable, scalable, and capable of creating lasting real-world value?” That can mean strategic advisory, tokenization architecture, capital-raise strategy, regulatory and structural planning, business development, investor positioning, distribution, partnerships, and access to the infrastructure required to operate effectively within the emerging digital economy. It also means helping founders understand where blockchain genuinely creates value and where it does not. RWA Inc.'s existing advisory and acceleration model already incorporates sourcing, due diligence, and executive review, with dedicated intake processes for tokenization strategy, capital raises, tokenomics, smart contracts, and related infrastructure. RWA CHAIN takes that philosophy into the infrastructure itself. Advisory Becomes the Multiplier Capital can accelerate a great project. But the right advisory can make the project better before the capital arrives. That distinction matters. The RWA industry does not need thousands of tokenized projects simply for the sake of numbers. It needs better projects. Better structures. Better governance. Better economics. Better compliance. Better investor communication. Better distribution. Better connections to real-world production. RWA Inc. has already demonstrated this advisory-first approach through its work with asset owners and businesses seeking to bring real-world opportunities to global capital markets. Most recently, RWA Global Inc. entered into an advisory agreement supporting the potential tokenization of approximately US$300 million in Chinese new-energy mobility assets , illustrating the company's focus on structuring real-world opportunities for access to global capital. That experience reinforces the philosophy behind RWA CHAIN: capital should not be treated as the beginning of the process. Strong businesses, sound structures, qualified opportunities, and strategic expertise should come first. RWA CHAIN is designed to build on that experience. Building an Economic Network The long-term vision for RWA CHAIN extends beyond transactions. It is about creating an economic network connecting the companies and organizations producing real-world value with the assets representing that value, the advisors capable of helping those businesses become investment-ready, the infrastructure required to structure and manage opportunities, and the capital seeking exposure to productive economic activity. This is the foundation of an interconnected RWA economy. The RWA Economy Needs a New Standard The real-world asset industry is rapidly moving from experimentation toward institutional infrastructure. But the next phase cannot simply be measured by the number of assets tokenized. It should be measured by the amount of real economic activity that can be connected to capital more efficiently. That requires more than blockchain. It requires selectivity in the opportunities entering the ecosystem, advisory capable of improving those opportunities, infrastructure capable of supporting them, appropriate compliance and structuring, efficient capital formation, and distribution that can connect opportunities with qualified participants. Ultimately, it requires real businesses and real production. Monday Marks the Beginning On Monday, September 7, 2026 , RWA Inc. opens the next chapter. About RWA Inc. RWA Inc. is a real-world asset infrastructure company focused on enabling the tokenization, issuance, distribution, and management of real-world assets and private-market opportunities. Its ecosystem combines tokenization infrastructure, marketplace capabilities, investor tools, and advisory services designed to connect asset owners and professional investors through compliant digital infrastructure.

Prosper Introduces MemeRWA, a Framework for Bringing Verifiable Performance Data to Crypto-Native Markets
Prosper , an onchain infrastructure platform, today introduced the MemeRWA framework, which enables third-party operators to connect verifiable performance data to crypto-native assets. Performance data and open market liquidity have so far lived in separate systems. Onchain strategies and real-world assets are now independently verifiable, but their performance stays inside asset-management wrappers, where price is calculated from NAV rather than publicly discoverable and nothing trades between reporting periods. Meme markets have the opposite profile: open participation builds deep liquidity within hours, with no verifiable performance underneath. MemeRWA defines a framework-level connection between the two. The MemeRWA framework consists of three components: a verifiable economic reference, a predefined mechanism connecting that reference to the market, and an openly traded crypto-native asset whose price is determined by market participation. Third-party Curators use Prosper’s framework infrastructure to deploy onchain strategies through two distinct instruments. Vault Shares, issued and managed by the respective Vault owner, provide proportional exposure to a strategy's assets and NAV. p{VAULT} is a fixed-supply asset through which the market can trade expectations around a Curator and their future performance. Prosper does not issue, manage, or control either instrument. The two instruments are linked by the MemeRWA framework: when a Curator's strategy earns performance fees, a share of those fees is used to buy the paired p{VAULT} on the open market, translating verified performance into real demand. Every step is verifiable onchain. The two instruments carry different rights — p{VAULT} does not represent Vault NAV, ownership of underlying assets, or a claim on Vault profits. The opening slate of third-party curated strategies is expected to span U.S. equities, global market equities and Hyperliquid strategies, with Stove Finance, R25 Protocol and TopNod Wallet among the first ecosystem partners. All strategies are independently operated by their respective Curators and partners; Prosper provides only the underlying protocol technology. Prosper runs on Pharos , the RealFi-and-value-discovery-focused blockchain that handles asset issuance, settlement and execution, and has built an extensive onchain financial network around it. Prosper has developed the protocol and interface layers on top, enabling Curators, assets, capital and community to interact with assets through a unified technology stack. p{VAULT} is designed to be quoted in $PROS, tying platform activity directly to the wider Pharos economy. “Prosper creates a new way to bring verifiable strategy performance into crypto-native markets,” said Laura, Chief Business Officer at Pharos. “Vault Shares provide capital exposure, while p{VAULT} gives the market a separate way to express conviction around performance.” "Our technology infrastructure exists to empower universal access to efficient on-chain capital, and trust and transparency play central roles in the on-chain financial ecosystem," said Sean Chung, VP of Business Development at R25 Protocol. "MemeRWA ties a curator's standing directly to performance data that anyone can verify onchain. That is a meaningful addition to how strategies get evaluated." The first Curator-operated Vaults are expected to go live in mid-September 2026, when strategies from the inaugural Curator cohort begin trading and users can deposit into Vaults and access the paired p{VAULT} instruments. Ahead of launch, Prosper will announce the first Curators, their Vault strategies and additional ecosystem partners. Additional strategies, Curators and community members are expected to follow. About Prosper Prosper is an onchain infrastructure platform for liquid alpha and the first application of the MemeRWA framework, which connects independently verifiable economic performance data to openly traded crypto-native assets through predefined protocol mechanisms. Prosper turns investment strategies into two distinct instruments: Vault Shares, offering direct exposure to a strategy's NAV, and p{VAULT}, a fixed-supply asset through which the market prices expectations around a Curator and their future performance data.

Zoomex, a global cryptocurrency exchange focused on derivative trading experiences, announced that its official side event during Coinfest Asia 2026, “Zoomex Summer Bay Party: Trade the Tide,” was successfully held on August 20 at the Tropical Temptation Beach Club in Bali. As a Gold Sponsor of Coinfest Asia 2026, Zoomex engaged directly with traders, builders, content creators, investors, community members, and ecosystem partners from Indonesia and the broader Southeast Asian region through its main conference presence and dedicated side event. Coinfest Asia 2026 took place from August 20 to 21 at Melasti Beach, Bali. Tailored for institutions, builders, and traders, the conference agenda covered digital asset infrastructure, trading, developer ecosystems, and regional partnerships. Under the theme “Trade the Tide,” Zoomex combined industry discussions, community networking, local Balinese cultural performances, and a beachside social environment, providing attendees with a direct engagement space beyond the traditional conference format. Roundtable Focuses on Trust, Execution Efficiency, and SEA Market Adoption The core industry session of the event was a Mini Roundtable themed: “Trading the Next Tide: Trust, Speed and the Next Wave of SEA Adoption” Moderated by Christian( @christianvctrs ), the panel featured Fernando Lillo, Marketing Director at Zoomex, alongside Indonesian crypto educator and content creator Michael Wyann ( @itsmikewyann ) and crypto trader Andy Tjoeng ( @kyojindee ). Zoomex had previously confirmed the participation of both regional guest speakers through official channels. The discussion centered on three key operational questions: how digital asset trading platforms build user trust through clear rules, transparent balance information, and continuous communication; how trading speed integrates with execution stability, product ease-of-use, and a complete trading journey; and how platforms can more effectively serve Southeast Asian market participants through localized education, community feedback, and regional partnerships. During the event, Fernando Lillo stated: “ Coinfest Asia allows us to hear direct, authentic feedback from traders, builders, and regional communities regarding their product experiences. While market conditions constantly evolve, user expectations remain clear: operations should be simpler, account and balance details should be transparent, and users deserve fair access to their earnings. Zoomex will continue converting this feedback into product and service enhancements tailored for Southeast Asian users .” This message aligns with Zoomex’s current brand proposition: Easy to Use.

By pairing local cultural elements with a beachside setting, Zoomex seamlessly connected formal industry discourse with authentic community interaction. Emiliano Martínez, Zoomex’s Global Brand Ambassador and Argentine goalkeeper, greeted attendees via a special video message. The subsequent “Pass-the-Flag” interactive challenge offered participants opportunities to win signed footballs from Martínez and exclusive signed merchandise from the TGR Haas F1 Team. Zoomex currently serves as the Official Cryptocurrency Exchange Partner of the TGR Haas F1 Team, with Emiliano Martínez acting as its Global Brand Ambassador. The interactive session translated Formula 1’s hallmark attributes—speed, precision, and team execution—alongside a goalkeeper’s judgment, focus, and quick reflexes into an engaging offline brand experience for attendees.

VeraData Holdings Completes Acquisition of Avalon Consulting, Forming the Nonprofit Sector's Most Integrated Fundraising Enterprise
VeraData Holdings, the originator of Donor Science and the most acquisitive company in nonprofit fundraising services, has completed its merger with Avalon Consulting, a Washington D.C.-based fundraising agency with nearly three decades of direct response and multichannel program experience. The deal marks the latest move in a private equity-backed consolidation strategy that has transformed VeraData from a data analytics firm into a full-spectrum fundraising enterprise with capabilities spanning predictive modeling, creative strategy, digital storytelling, direct mail production, and integrated donor communications. The acquisition adds Avalon to a growing portfolio that already includes Faircom New York and Teal Media, bringing the total number of agencies operating under the VeraData Holdings umbrella to four alongside the company's core data platform. "Nonprofits deserve fewer disconnected tactics and more integrated, accountable partnerships," said Michael Peterman , Founder and CEO of VeraData Holdings. "Together, across Donor Science, Creative Science, and Media Science, we are building an omnichannel fundraising enterprise that is more integrated, more measurable, and more effective." The Investment Thesis In November 2022, VeraData received a significant investment from private investment firm Beringer Capital to position the company for substantial growth in servicing the nonprofit sector. What followed was a disciplined acquisition strategy targeting agencies with complementary capabilities, established client relationships, and cultural alignment around mission-driven work. The company rebranded as VeraData: The Donor Science Company in January 2024 and announced the formation of The VeraData Group, consolidating acquisitions of Faircom and New River Communications alongside Acuity under a single structure spanning creative design, data analytics, production, and logistics. Faircom New York and Teal Media subsequently merged in July 2025, uniting Teal's digital branding and technology capabilities with Faircom's direct mail, digital strategy, and omnichannel marketing depth. The Avalon acquisition, announced April 30, 2026, completes the next phase of that build. Discoperi The merger creates a vertically integrated player with superior data analytics and creative fundraising solutions, potentially attracting larger nonprofit clients seeking comprehensive service packages that integrate strategic consultation and advanced technology. PRWeb Why the Nonprofit Sector Is an Attractive Consolidation Target The nonprofit fundraising services industry has historically been fragmented, with organizations managing separate relationships across data vendors, creative agencies, production firms, and media buyers. That fragmentation creates cost inefficiencies, attribution gaps, and a diffuse accountability structure where no single partner is responsible for the outcome that matters most: fundraising revenue. Peterman identified that structural problem when VeraData was founded in 2007 and has spent nearly two decades building toward its solution. The performance data supports the thesis. VeraData routinely doubles or triples an organization's active donor pool while reducing the cost of acquiring donors by 20 to 30 percent, outcomes made possible by controlling the full chain from predictive modeling through creative execution and channel delivery. VeraData The total addressable market is substantial. The nonprofit sector in the United States generates hundreds of billions in annual philanthropic giving. VeraData's current client base, representing more than 400 organizations across humanitarian aid, animal welfare, veteran services, health research, and related verticals, collectively raises more than $1 billion annually. That figure represents a fraction of the sector's fundraising activity and underscores the growth runway available to a platform with the capability and infrastructure to serve it. Omnichannel as the Competitive Moat VeraData blends Donor Science, Creative Science, and Media Science through its partner agencies Teal Media, Faircom New York, and Avalon Consulting, with capabilities spanning predictive analytics, creative strategy, direct mail production, digital capabilities, and data-driven optimization. Nonprofit Pro That combination is not easily replicated. Building proprietary donor behavioral data at scale requires years of sector-specific campaign history. Training predictive models on nonprofit giving patterns requires PhD-level quantitative talent with domain expertise. And delivering creative and production work that actually converts requires agency relationships built on long-term client trust. VeraData now owns all three and has structured its platform so each component makes the others more effective over time. The company charges clients only when results are delivered, a performance-based model in place since the company's founding that aligns VeraData's financial outcomes directly with its clients' fundraising success. As the platform scales, that model becomes more defensible, not less, because the data flywheel compounds with every campaign. Peterman was named EY US Entrepreneur of the Year 2026 Florida Award winner, selected from 592 finalists across 17 regions nationwide, and advances to the national competition at the EY Strategic Growth Forum in November 2026. About VeraData VeraData is a data analytics company headquartered in Sarasota, Florida, specializing in AI and machine learning-enabled donor acquisition and retention for the nonprofit sector. Founded in 2007 by Michael Peterman, VeraData serves more than 400 nonprofit organizations nationwide and supports clients that collectively raise more than $1 billion in annual philanthropic giving. VeraData operates as The Donor Science Company. For more information, visit veradata.com. About Michael Peterman Michael Peterman is the Founder and CEO of VeraData and the originator of the Donor Science framework. He is the EY US Entrepreneur of the Year 2026 Florida Award winner and will compete at the national EY Entrepreneur of the Year program in November 2026. Peterman is based in Sarasota, Florida.
