Hong Kong, February 18, 2026
The RWA Summit Hong Kong has come to an end—an exciting event that has cemented the city's status as the world's leading center for real asset tokenization (RWA). These were two intense days when more than 700 carefully curated participants, 50+ distinguished speakers, and 80+ leading institutional investors gathered to map out the future of DePin, stablecoins, and the move toward bringing TradFi on-chain.
Rather than revisiting whether tokenization is viable, discussions focused on how it can be executed within credible legal, financial, and operational frameworks.
“RWA SUMMIT Hong Kong was not just another event for us, it was a place where real deals and business happened. We were proud to co-host the event and bring together potential partners, regulators and market leaders. It’s a great opportunity to present our bonds tokenization and DeFi projects to both TradFi and Digital Assets players. I believe that the key result of any event are the real deals that follow. RWA SUMMIT is definitely this kind of event. No noise, no hype, only real expertise of speakers, and a highly curated network” - Peter Kadish, Managing Director LynxCap Investments, RWA SUMMIT Hong Kong co-host.

“The RWA Summit clearly showed that tokenization has moved beyond theory into execution,” says Scott Thiel, co-founder & CEO of Tokinvest. “Across panels on venture capital, IP tokenization, and institutional adoption, the focus was on infrastructure, liquidity planning, and trusted market frameworks.”And this is how Gillian Wu, founder and CEO of Mulana Investment Management, comments on the insights of the event: “At the RWA Summit during Consensus Hong Kong, we explored how real-world assets are bringing wealth on-chain through greater efficiency, transparency, disintermediation, and fractionalized ownership. Tokenization, however, does not change the fundamental factors that influence value, and investors must carefully assess counterparty risk and liquidity. Although market fragmentation and structural differences between DeFi, exchanges, and traditional finance remain challenges, progress toward convergence is evident.”
Day 1: Forging Regulatory Pathways and Institutional Momentum
The summit opened with remarks from Joseph Chan, Under Secretary for Financial Services and the Treasury of the Hong Kong Government, who highlighted Hong Kong’s regulatory direction and its ambition to provide clarity for tokenized financial products. The message was consistent throughout the day: regulatory structure is no longer an obstacle but a prerequisite for scale.
The day included four spotlight sessions.

The first one was on global frameworks. The participants got a profound exploration of regional RWA trends, featuring insights from Scott Thiel (Tokinvest), Julian Kwan (InvestaX), and Terence Ng (EX.IO), expertly moderated by Peter Kadish (LynxCap). The takeaway? Regulation has evolved from a barrier into a strategic advantage.
Thereafter, we covered the AI convergence. Alan Lau (Animoca Brands) and Geoff Kot (Standard Chartered) delved into how artificial intelligence is revolutionizing the connection between traditional banking and digital asset ecosystems.
Another essential point was related to banking giants on-chain. Bugra Celik (HSBC) and Giorgia Pellizzari (Hex Trust) highlighted the transition from experimental proof-of-concept to full-scale institutional adoption, emphasizing robust custody and security for digital currencies.
The day concluded with a forward-looking exchange between Nenter Chow of Bitmart and Sébastien Borget of The Sandbox. They explored how crypto-native ecosystems are incorporating RWAs. The conversation centered on sustainable value creation rather than short-term market cycles.
“At the RWA Summit in Hong Kong, we discussed how blockchain is expanding from virtual real estate to collectible assets and user-generated content revenues being tokenized on-chain. The direction is clear: blockchain technology will become broadly adopted across gaming, digital assets, and the creator economy. It will ultimately integrate so seamlessly into user experiences that people benefit from it without needing to think about the underlying infrastructure,” shares Sébastien Borget, co-founder of SandBox & SandChain.
The first day also featured an outstanding lineup of industry leaders and innovators, including Cathal Donnellan, President at NexStox; Marcos Chow, Group CIO at HKT; Rocky Mui, Partner at Clifford Chance; Tom Wan, Partner at Imprint Capital Partners; Neil Tan, Managing Partner at Tsunami Advisors and Chairman of the AI Association of Hong Kong; Phillip Pon, CEO at EMURGO; Andrei Grachev, Managing Partner at DWF Labs; Musheer Ahmed, Founder & CEO at FinStep Asia; Jelena Zhang, SVP at Amber Premium; Jayendra Jog, Co-Founder at Sei Labs; Nikita (Sachdev) Lord, Founder & CEO at Luna PR; Edwin Mata, Co-Founder & CEO at Brickken; Preetam Rao, Co-Founder & CEO at QuillAudits; and Leo Fan, Founder & CEO at Cysic. 

Day 2: Envisioning Tomorrow’s Wealth, IP, and Payment Innovations
The second day shifted toward applied use cases, examining how tokenization is reshaping wealth management, intellectual property, and payment systems.
The second day of RWA Summit opened with a high-level fireside chat featuring Sean McHugh, Senior Director – Market Assurance at VARA (Virtual Assets Regulatory Authority). The discussion set the tone for the day, focusing on regulatory clarity, market integrity, and the evolving framework for virtual assets in the region.
In a fireside discussion, Yat Siu of Animoca Brands and Bowie Lau of MaGE Group analyzed the implications of IP tokenization for content platforms and creator economies for giants like YouTube, Spotify, and Netflix. The conversation focused on whether blockchain-based models can provide more direct monetization and ownership structures while maintaining compliance and investor protections.
“A recurring theme in our discussion was that RWA is not about “putting a single asset on-chain”; it's about modernizing financial infrastructure without breaking law, trust, or market structure,” comments Jeffrey Broer, venture advisor at Kohpy Ventures. “Tokenization within a regulated environment does not automatically create liquidity, and lower minimums do not mean retail access. True liquidity requires credible market design and participation. For venture-backed startups, the real opportunity lies in compliance-native infrastructure, settlement and orchestration layers, custody, risk tooling, and transparency rails. In short, the value is in building the plumbing, not chasing product hype.”
Wealth migration onto blockchain infrastructure was addressed by Ray Tam of Revo Digital Family Office and Florian M Spiegl of Evident Capital. They tackled the hurdles of onboarding professional investor (PI) wealth onto the blockchain while unveiling exciting avenues for retail investors.
The next spotlight session of the day was on the PayFi Revolution. Rita Liu (RD Technologies) and Evan Auyang (Animoca Brands) offered a grounded perspective on stablecoins and payment finance in the “Asian Reality.”
The 2-day event concluded with a comparative discussion featuring Pauline Fan of InvestHK, Rachel Lee of Cyberport, and Irina Heaver of RWA Labs. The panel assessed Hong Kong’s regulatory agility against competitors like the UAE and beyond.
The stage then welcomed an exceptional lineup of investors, founders, and industry leaders, including Noah Frankel, Investment Analyst at JSquare; Tobias Bauer, General Partner at TBV; Calvin Ng, General Partner at Plutus VC; Melody He, Co-Founder & Partner at Spartan Group; Craig Dyer, Head of Capital Markets at HECTO; Pauli Speaks, CBDO at Cryptic; DiZien Low, Director of Business Development at Polygon Labs; Jacky Kong, Head of Hong Kong at Ava Labs; Sonia Shaw, CEO at OneAsset; Andrey Fedorov, CMO & CBDO at STON.fi; Jackee Wong, Partner & CMO at Leadsourcing; Sudeep Mehta, COO at STBL; and Lawrence Tsui, Director of Business Development and Strategic Solutions for Hong Kong & Mongolia at Fortinet.
Special thanks to the partners of RWA Summit, in particular our Strategic Partner, BTSE Enterprise Solutions, and our Partner, STON.fi, for their invaluable support and contribution to the event’s success.
Industry Developments and Expansion
Apart from panel discussions, the summit also provided a platform for industry announcements. LynxCap introduced its DeFi platform designed to connect RWA yield strategies with structured liquidity environments. In parallel, Ivan V. Ivanov of UVECON.VC and Irina Heaver of RWA Labs announced the launch of Dubai RWA Week 2026, signaling increased collaboration between Asian and Middle Eastern tokenization hubs.
“RWA Summit Hong Kong brought together strong voices from both TradFi and digital assets,” says Ivan V. Ivanov, founder of RWA Summit. “The discussions focused on execution, regulation, and real market structure and were grounded in actual cases, not theory.What stood out to me most was the growing alignment between ecosystems like Hong Kong and Dubai. Different frameworks—and clear potential for collaboration. Our goal was to create a platform where real experts share real cases, challenges, and practical paths forward. Judging by the depth of discussion, we are clearly moving in the right direction.”
To sum it up, the RWA Summit Hong Kong 2026 has unequivocally demonstrated that the dialogue has advanced from “Is this feasible?” to “How swiftly can we expand?” By bridging TradFi’s regulatory rigor with DeFi’s tech stack, we’re moving toward a financial system that is actually transparent and accessible, not just fast.

London, UK, February 6, 2026

As digital asset markets continue to fragment across blockchains, decentralized exchanges, and rapidly emerging tokens, the tools used to navigate these environments are becoming increasingly specialized. One such project, Sairus (https://sairus.net), presents itself as a technology platform designed to address two persistent challenges in decentralized finance: the speed of token discovery and the direct interaction between market participants without centralized intermediaries.
Sairus is structured around automation and peer-to-peer mechanics rather than traditional exchange models. Its publicly described functionality centers on real-time monitoring of blockchain activity, automated execution logic, and direct wallet-to-wallet interactions facilitated through decentralized protocols. Together, these components position the platform as infrastructure rather than a marketplace, emphasizing tooling over brokerage.
Automated Sniper Functionality
A central feature of the Sairus platform is its so-called sniper module. In decentralized finance, “sniping” typically refers to the rapid identification and interaction with newly deployed tokens or liquidity pools at the moment they become tradable. This process often requires continuous blockchain monitoring, low-latency execution, and automated decision-making, as opportunities can emerge and disappear within seconds.
Sairus describes its sniper as an AI-driven system designed to observe on-chain activity in real time. The module tracks events such as smart contract deployments, liquidity additions, and changes in trading conditions across decentralized exchanges. By processing these signals programmatically, the sniper component is intended to reduce the time gap between an on-chain event and a transaction being initiated.
From a business perspective, this reflects a broader shift toward algorithmic infrastructure within crypto markets. As blockchains produce vast volumes of transparent but complex data, automation has become a practical necessity for participants seeking to respond to events at network speed. The Sairus sniper concept aligns with this trend by framing token discovery and execution as a computational problem rather than a manual one.
While the platform does not publicly disclose the internal architecture of its models or execution logic, its emphasis on artificial intelligence suggests the use of pattern recognition and rule-based filtering to distinguish potentially relevant market events from background noise. In this sense, the sniper operates less as a trading strategy and more as an automated interface between raw blockchain data and transaction execution.
Peer-to-Peer Design Principles
Alongside automation, Sairus places notable emphasis on peer-to-peer interaction. In contrast to centralized exchanges, where transactions are routed through custodial systems and internal order books, peer-to-peer systems rely on direct interaction between participants’ wallets via smart contracts.
The platform’s public descriptions indicate that P2P mechanisms are embedded as a core design principle rather than an auxiliary feature. This suggests an architecture where asset transfers, interactions, or executions occur directly on-chain, without a central entity controlling settlement or custody. Such an approach aligns with foundational decentralized finance concepts, including transparency, permissionless access, and user-controlled assets.
From an operational standpoint, peer-to-peer systems reduce reliance on centralized infrastructure but place greater importance on smart contract reliability and network conditions. By combining P2P execution with automated tooling, Sairus appears to be targeting users who prioritize direct blockchain interaction while still requiring high-speed, programmatic access to markets.
The coexistence of sniper automation and P2P execution highlights an important balance within decentralized finance: automation without centralization. Rather than replacing intermediaries with a single platform operator, the model described by Sairus suggests that automation acts as a layer on top of decentralized rails, preserving direct settlement between participants.
Positioning Within the Crypto Infrastructure Stack
Rather than marketing itself as a consumer exchange or investment product, Sairus is positioned closer to infrastructure tooling. Its focus is on enabling interaction with existing decentralized ecosystems — blockchains, liquidity pools, and smart contracts — rather than creating a closed trading environment.
This positioning reflects a maturing crypto market where differentiation increasingly comes from tooling efficiency, latency reduction, and integration depth rather than asset availability. As token creation and liquidity deployment become easier, the challenge shifts toward identifying, filtering, and interacting with opportunities at scale.
Sairus’s emphasis on sniper functionality addresses the discovery and timing side of this equation, while its P2P orientation addresses execution and settlement. Together, these elements suggest a platform designed for users who already operate within decentralized markets and seek more automated, infrastructure-level capabilities.
Broader Context
The emergence of platforms like Sairus illustrates how decentralized finance continues to evolve beyond simple token swaps. Automation, artificial intelligence, and peer-to-peer execution are increasingly interwoven, reflecting both the complexity and openness of blockchain systems.
While the long-term impact of such platforms depends on factors such as reliability, security, and integration with broader ecosystems, their design choices offer insight into where crypto infrastructure is heading. Sairus, through its combination of automated sniping tools and decentralized P2P mechanics, represents an approach focused on speed, autonomy, and direct blockchain interaction — characteristics that continue to shape the next phase of digital asset markets.

LOS ANGELES, January 29, 2026
Mevolaxy has announced the next stage of development for its Mevstake direction - Mevstake 2.0. The key change in the new version lies in the product architecture: a format of personal MEV bots is being implemented instead of a shared operational model.
In Mevstake 2.0, each participant receives a dedicated MEV bot that operates within the platform's set parameters. This means that operations are no longer pooled together but are processed individually at the infrastructure level.
According to the team, this approach allows for:
• More precise distribution of load,
• Isolation of processes between users,
• Simplified system stability control.
From the user's perspective, the interaction format remains largely unchanged. The MEV bots operate fully automatically - requiring no manual configuration, strategy management, or constant monitoring.
The user does not interact directly with the logic of MEV operations. The result is generated at the system level.
Mevstake 2.0 will be available in limited capacity. Mevolaxy explains this by stating that the personal model requires dedicated computational resources for each participant. This approach simplifies scaling and reduces technical risks at the early stage.
Mevolaxy describes the launch of Mevstake 2.0 not as a new product, but as an evolution of the existing solution. The primary focus is not on changing the terms, but on the internal structure and operating principles of the system.

Abu Dhabi, UAE , January 27, 2026

The Global Blockchain Show Abu Dhabi 2025, which was organized by VAP Group and powered by Times of Blockchain, held from December 10-11, 2025, at Space42 Arena, Abu Dhabi, achieved the goal of being a leading platform that influences the worldwide blockchain and Web3 ecosystem in the Middle East region.
The two-day event provided an opportunity for government officials, business executives, investors, developers, and entrepreneurs within the blockchain space to share their thoughts and ideas on blockchain usage, legislation, the development of new technologies, and the implementation of real-world applications of the blockchain. The show attracted 5,000+ participants, and 100+ international keynote speakers were represented in 50+ different sessions and featured over 100+ different companies and startup businesses.
“It’s refreshing to attend a conference like this and engage face-to-face with the audience. Having real conversations, answering questions in person, and experiencing that direct interaction makes the event truly valuable. The atmosphere and engagement are exactly what I look for in a great conference.”  Carl Moon, Entrepreneur, Investor, Speaker, Founder, The Moon Group
Supported by the Abu Dhabi Convention & Exhibition Bureau as Destination Partner, the Global Blockchain Show was much more than a standard conference; rather, it provided an environment for the global blockchain community to engage in ongoing and insightful conversations on significant issues related to digital identity, the architecture that underlies Web3, real-world assets (RWA), the integration of AI and blockchain, and the emergence of DeFi, as well as the changing economic impact of the utilization of blockchain around the world.
A Truly Global Platform for Web3 Innovation
The Global Blockchain Show Abu Dhabi saw participants from all corners of the planet participate, including representatives of government, corporate, startup, investment, and tech appeals to Web3 communities. The Global Blockchain Show Abu Dhabi helped reinforce the rise of Abu Dhabi’s position in the world as a center for blockchain innovation and supporting progressive regulations through the direction of a large team of international delegates.
Many of the leaders, founders, CEOs, and technologists who appeared on stage presented their thoughts on how blockchain technology is becoming less of an experimental model and more of an organizational and an institutional and government-funded tool.

High-Impact Thought Leadership and Headline Discussions
Keynote speeches, panel discussions, fireside chats, and spotlight sessions focused on how blockchain technology currently exists and what it could possibly become in the future. The major themes discussed included 
Blockchain moving from the speculative to practical applicationsRoles of governments as supporters of innovative companies & regulatorsEnterprise uses of blockchain for public service delivery, healthcare, supply chain, and financial sectorsConvergence of blockchain and AI technologiesInteroperability, security, scalability and Web3 infrastructureDigital assets, DeFi, and the future of financial systems Web3 gaming on the blockchain, and the typical creators' economy

The speeches at the event provided practical advice and lessons that were based on real implementation of blockchain technology in the world today.
“It’s fun, it’s exciting, this event. Last time I was here, it was in Dubai; there was good energy, and there were a lot of people discussing great topics. I would certainly recommend people come and visit the show.” Yat Siu, Co-Founder & Chairman, Animoca Brands.
Strong Institutional and Governmental Involvement
There were many examples of how effective public-private partnerships, compliance-driven innovation, and forward-thinking policy frameworks will enable developers of blockchain technology to engage with institutions, regulators, and government representatives, and vice versa.
The discussions were about how regulatory clarity and supportive ecosystems, as demonstrated by the UAE and Abu Dhabi, will be critical for large-scale blockchain adoption, bringing in international businesses, and creating long-term trust from investors.
Startup Innovation and Exhibition Showcase
The exhibition area of the event served as a large and lively venue for showing technological innovation, showcasing blockchain startup companies, platforms built on Web3, technology companies that support infrastructure and other technologies, and companies that illustrate many of the potential next-generation technologies. The exhibition demonstrated the increasing complexity of the Web3 ecosystem and how it can encompass a variety of products and services, such as enterprise-ready platforms, decentralized finance (DeFi), and blockchain gaming platforms.
Through the startup pitch sessions held during the exhibition, startup companies were given numerous opportunities to showcase their ideas and projects. This gave startup founders a direct line of communication with potential investors, business clients, media, and ecosystem partners. Startups that participated included Epow.io, CereBree, SIXR Cricket, and others.
Meaningful Networking and VIP Engagements
True to its mission, the Global Blockchain Show prioritized high-quality, outcome-driven networking. The quality of the networking sessions and opportunities created during the event facilitated strategic conversations and partnerships through the curation of the sessions created for networking and VIP closed-door meetings, as well as having a VIP dinner for long-term relationship building among industry leaders.
“This was my first year attending, and the space and audience were fantastic. I’d be happy to be involved again next year.” Nenter Chow, Global CEO, BitMart
Driving the Future of Blockchain Forward
As the Global Blockchain Show Abu Dhabi 2025 echoed into history, one clear message emerged: blockchain is here today and will be impacting industries, governance, and global commerce now.
The success of the Global Blockchain Show Abu Dhabi demonstrated how individuals can come together through collaboration and play a significant role in developing discussions that will govern the forthcoming phase of blockchain adoption on a global scale.
The Global Blockchain Show 2026 will continue its efforts to bring the global Web3 ecosystem together and provide substantial, real-world transformative change by moving to Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, on 29-10 June, the next stop on the global blockchain show circuit.

Introduction
Bcon Global has announced the launch of its non-custodial crypto payment gateway designed to help businesses accept crypto payments directly to their own wallets. The platform enables cryptocurrency payments without custody, KYC, or access to private keys, providing full control over funds.
Non-Custodial Crypto Payment Infrastructure
Bcon Global operates as a non-custodial crypto payment system, meaning the service does not store user funds or private keys. Merchants connect only a public wallet address, and all cryptocurrency payments are sent directly on-chain to their wallets.
This architecture removes intermediaries from the payment flow and allows businesses to accept crypto payments without relying on banks, custodial processors, or centralized exchanges.
Accept Crypto Payments on Websites and Applications
The crypto payment gateway allows online stores, SaaS platforms, and digital services to accept cryptocurrency payments on websites and applications. Payments can be received in hot wallets, cold storage wallets, or hardware wallets.
Bcon Global supports common wallet solutions such as MetaMask, Trust Wallet, Ledger, Trezor, Exodus, Electrum, and other wallets that provide public blockchain addresses.
API, Invoices, and Payment Tracking
Bcon Global provides a crypto payment API that includes functions for invoice generation, payment status tracking, and balance verification. Businesses can create invoices in fiat currency, while the system automatically calculates the crypto amount using real-time exchange rates.
Webhooks are available to notify merchants about payment confirmations and status changes, enabling automation and integration into existing systems.
E-commerce Integrations
The platform offers ready-to-use crypto payment plugins for e-commerce platforms, including WordPress and OpenCart. These integrations allow merchants to accept crypto payments without complex development or custom infrastructure.
For advanced use cases, developers can integrate directly through the API to build custom cryptocurrency payment flows.
Multi-Blockchain and Stablecoin Support
Bcon Global supports cryptocurrency payments across multiple blockchains, including Bitcoin, Ethereum, BNB Smart Chain, Solana, and TRON. Stablecoin payments are supported on major networks, including USDT, USDC, USDS, and TUSD.
All transactions are transparent and can be verified using public blockchain explorers.
Pricing Model and Fees
The service applies a flat 1% fee only to payments processed through the Bcon Global API. Transactions received directly on the wallet outside the service are not affected. Fees are accounted for separately and do not interfere with wallet balances.
There are no monthly fees, setup costs, or minimum volumes.
Use Cases and Availability
Bcon Global is designed for businesses looking for a cryptocurrency payment processor without custody or KYC. Typical use cases include e-commerce stores, subscription services, freelancers, and developers accepting peer-to-peer crypto payments.
The platform is available globally and supports payments from users worldwide.
About Bcon Global
