#RedotPay has postponed its planned U.S. IPO from this year to 2027 or later as it works to secure regulatory approvals and resolve legal issues. A #Binance-linked entity previously sued RedotPay’s founder, alleging he diverted hundreds of thousands of users to a competing product and seeking nearly $500M in damages. RedotPay declined to comment on the IPO timeline, citing its focus on global compliance and growth.
The company said users, revenue, profits, and profit margins have all reached record highs in recent months. It also obtained a U.S. money-transmitter license this week and plans to actively defend against the Binance lawsuit.
#Bitwise has partnered with fintech firm #Superstate to enable the tokenization of shares in select Bitwise funds. The firm expects its Bitwise Solana Staking ETF to be the first fund it tokenizes, although the launch is not guaranteed. Under the proposed framework, tokenization would only alter how ownership is recorded, with investors retaining the same rights and access to existing purchase channels.
Shareholders could choose to hold their shares either in traditional book-entry form through The Depository Trust Company or as blockchain-based tokens managed through Superstate’s transfer agency infrastructure.
