๐Ÿšจ NEW UNICORN ALERT

Yoshitaka Kitao (SBI Group) just led a $68M round for Own Network โ€” an AI-powered stablecoin banking play.

What they're building:
โ€ข 16 blockchain integrations
โ€ข 100+ banking corridors
โ€ข Multi-million wallet infrastructure
โ€ข 125 country coverage (APAC โ†’ MEA focus)

This is cross-border liquidity infrastructure at scale. If they execute, this becomes the rails for stablecoin flows across emerging markets.

SBI backing = serious institutional firepower. Watch this space.
