ACCRA, Ghana, Dec. 19, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — On December 19, the “Light Up Africa” Children’s Solar Lamp Project, jointly initiated by KuCoin, Global CSR, and the Smiling Simon Greenbuild Foundation, held its donation ceremony in Ghana. The project aims to provide light for schoolchildren in underdeveloped areas of Africa, promoting education equality and improving their living conditions.

This charitable initiative originated at the 28th United Nations Climate Change Conference (COP28) in 2023, where KuCoin made a firm commitment to support social welfare initiatives during the “KuCoin Green Future Dinner”, witnessed by over 200 guests from various countries. In 2024, KuCoin has continued to fulfill its social responsibilities by launching a series of impactful public welfare projects, with the “Light Up Africa” Children’s Solar Lamp Project standing out as a prime example.

Through the donation of solar reading lamps, the project provides opportunities for children in rural African areas without electricity to study at night, illuminating their path to knowledge. In February 2024, the first batch of 2,500 solar lamps was delivered to 25 schools in Nigeria. By October 2024, an additional 7,200 solar lamps were distributed to various communities in Sierra Leone, Nigeria, and Ghana, benefiting even more children.

At the donation ceremony in Ghana, Dr. Anita Nana Okuribido from the Smiling Simon Green Building Foundation expressed sincere gratitude to KuCoin. She highlighted that local children previously relied on candles or dim moonlight for their evening studies. The solar lamps donated by KuCoin have significantly improved their learning conditions. One solar lamp impacts at least five students, meaning this project directly benefits 36,000 children, helping them step out of darkness and embrace the light of knowledge.

Zhao Jing, Chairman of Global CSR, emphasized that this project has ignited African children’s enthusiasm for learning, boosting their confidence and instilling hope for a brighter future. This effort is not merely a material donation but also a profound source of encouragement.

As a global leader in the digital economy, KuCoin remains committed to sustainable development goals, focusing on areas such as climate change, health, and education, and has achieved significant positive social impact. KuCoin’s Chief Sustainability Officer (CSO), Nancy Cheung, stated that the “Light Up Africa” project is a key step in KuCoin’s journey to advance the United Nations’ 17 Sustainable Development Goals. KuCoin will continue to support children’s education and technological innovation, driving society toward a better future.

Dimitra and MANTRA Partner to Tokenize Real-World Agricultural Assets for Real Impact

Published

on

dimitra-and-mantra-partner-to-tokenize-real-world-agricultural-assets-for-real-impact

DUBAI, UAE, May 28, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — Dimitra, a global leader in agriculture technology and sustainability solutions – that leverages blockchain and artificial intelligence to support farmers – has partnered with MANTRA, a layer 1 blockchain platform focused on real-world assets (RWAs). This collaboration aims to bring green agricultural assets onchain, offering innovative ways for farmers to finance their activities, and enable global investors to engage in sustainable value creation.

Dimitra uses blockchain and artificial intelligence to help smallholder farmers boost productivity and build more resilient agricultural systems. MANTRA brings a secure, regulation-friendly blockchain designed for tokenizing real-world assets, across real estate, commodities, and agriculture. Together, they will unlock new pathways to connect high-impact farming projects with investors seeking transparent, asset-backed opportunities that deliver both returns and positive change.

The first phase of the partnership will focus on cacao production in the Amazon region of Brazil and carbon credit projects in Mexico. In Brazil, Dimitra is working with smallholder farmers to improve cacao yields through the Connected Cacao platform, designed to provide tools for soil analysis, crop monitoring, AI technical assistance and regenerative best practices. Cacao is a high-demand crop, especially among chocolate producers. Tokenizing cacao-based RWAs can open new paths for financing infrastructure, traceability and farmer incentives, making the entire value chain more profitable and transparent.

In Mexico, Dimitra and MANTRA will leverage Dimitra’s carbon monitoring tools to support a forest conservation project covering over 20,000 hectares, with the potential to generate nearly one million carbon credits in the next ten years. These efforts will produce 100% traceable carbon credits, making it easier to verify, trade and invest. As the global demand for carbon credits continues to rise, tokenization of carbon projects offers a path to broader access and greater impact.

While the initial projects will focus on Brazil and Mexico, this partnership will establish a framework for tokenizing agricultural projects worldwide. Dimitra’s portfolio includes dozens of agricultural projects in Latin America, Africa and Asia. Many of these projects are economically sound, but struggle to attract funding. With MANTRA’s infrastructure, these initiatives can be turned into investable opportunities that appeal to a growing number of people and institutions looking to make a real impact with real returns.

“This partnership is about unlocking new value from the real economy,” said Jon Trask, CEO of Dimitra. “Through MANTRA’s platform, we’ll be able to turn powerful, regenerative agricultural projects into accessible investment opportunities, benefiting both farmers and investors.”

“Tokenizing agriculture isn’t just about innovation, it’s about finding solutions to real-world issues long associated with food supply – at scale – and for long-term impact,” said John Patrick Mullin, CEO of MANTRA. “Dimitra is solving real-world problems, with a focus on traceability and transparency – and we’re proud to help bring those to a wider audience. MANTRA Chain was built to support projects like these.”

The partnership follows a string of strong developments from MANTRA, which continues to build momentum in the real-world asset space. Earlier this year, MANTRA was awarded the first DeFi license from Dubai’s Virtual Assets Regulatory Authority (VARA) to operate as a Virtual Asset Exchange, as well as provide Broker-Dealer and Management and Investment Services. It also launched the RWAccelerator – a start-up program for builders and startups supported by Google Cloud.

About Dimitra

Dimitra is a leading AI and blockchain-based platform for AgTech driving productive, intelligent and inclusive farming. Dimitra empowers farmers to make their processes smarter through actionable data-driven insights. Now working with farmers and co-ops across 35 countries, Dimitra’s AI-driven solutions equip farmers, agribusinesses, and governments with cutting-edge technology to combat deforestation, increase yields, reduce costs, and mitigate risks.

mexc-futures-grid-bot-sets-traders-on-fast-track-to-yields-under-multiple-market-conditions

VICTORIA, Seychelles, May 28, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — MEXC, a leading global cryptocurrency exchange, has taken center stage on the crypto market with the release of the Futures Grid Bot on May 21, 2025. The new product provides users with a host of advantages and is unique as a market offering with an entry threshold as low as 10 USDT and high leverage rates for improved capital efficiency.

The MEXC Futures Grid Bot is an advanced trading instrument that opens up entirely new opportunities for traders in terms of leveraging available assets via innovative approaches. The principle of grid trading relies on applying a fully automated strategy that lets traders set multiple equidistant buy and sell orders within a predetermined price range. The given method allows traders to generate profits based on any market sentiment and at lowered risks.

Traders who rely on the Futures Grid Bot yield profits by taking advantage of market-induced price fluctuations. This lets traders use the Futures Grid Bot to generate profits, regardless of bull or bear markets.

MEXC designed the Futures Grid Bot with a number of distinct advantages, which make it highly attractive to a wide range of trader audiences. Apart from the low entry threshold, the bot grants high leverage rations, uninterrupted operation, and low transaction fees.

Among the potential users of the bot are short-sell traders, giving them effective risk dispersal in case of market falls. Leveraged traders and those seeking risk mitigation can also benefit from the Futures Grid Bot, as it can help them distribute dense orders. The automated nature of the bot makes it ideal for full-time traders, freeing them from monitoring their trades nonstop. Novice traders will find the Futures Grid Bot an excellent stepping stone into their trading careers, considering its low 10 USDT entry threshold and that the instrument automatically adjusts its parameters to suit their modes.

The workflow of the Futures Grid Bot has been intentionally simplified and streamlined to ensure that both novice and professional traders can use its interface with minimal navigation. In order to initiate their first trade with the Futures Grid Bot, users must first determine the price range of their orders within the price range that suits their requirements. The next step is setting the trade intervals into an equidistant grid and placing buy and sell orders within each grid cell. Futures Grid Bot takes over as the final step, launching automated buy-low and sell-high orders.

The MEXC exchange is confident that the Futures Grid Bot will prove to be a valuable addition to the platform’s ever-expanding range of products. The functionality of the bot and its ability to allow traders to generate positive yields under different market conditions makes it an attractive instrument for both novice and professional users, upping the exchange’s market status and audience inflow.

HTX Research: A Fresh Look at Bitcoin Amidst Macro Changes, Featuring HTX’s New Compliant Stablecoin Offerings

Published

on

htx-research:-a-fresh-look-at-bitcoin-amidst-macro-changes,-featuring-htx’s-new-compliant-stablecoin-offerings

SINGAPORE, May 28, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — HTX Research, the research arm of HTX, has just released a crucial new report: The New Macroeconomic Landscape and Bitcoin Outlook: An Analysis of Liquidity, Risk Appetite, Policy Dynamics, and Investment Strategy. This comprehensive analysis comes at a pivotal time, as the global macroeconomic landscape undergoes profound shifts and the cryptocurrency market, especially Bitcoin’s price movements, becomes increasingly influenced by this complex backdrop. The report offers investors valuable insights, a clear market outlook, and strategic investment guidance on how evolving macroeconomic conditions are shaping the Bitcoin market.

Bitcoin Outlook in the Macro Environment: Liquidity & Market Risk Appetite

The current global macro environment is complex. A combination of factors, including cooling expectations for Fed rate cuts, ongoing quantitative tightening (QT), the replenishment of the U.S. Treasury General Account (TGA), and anticipated rate hikes by the Bank of Japan, are collectively contributing to tighter short-term liquidity.

Over the medium term (3–12 months), liquidity is expected to gradually improve. However, uncertainty surrounding market risk appetite presents both opportunities and challenges for the Bitcoin market.

Policy Tug-of-War Signals Crypto-Friendly Shifts: A Loosening Grip on Stablecoin Regulation?

The ongoing policy debate is having a significant impact on the crypto market. In a notable development, Hong Kong’s Legislative Council has passed the Stablecoin Bill, which establishes a comprehensive licensing regime for fiat-backed stablecoin issuers in Hong Kong. This legislation further refines the regulatory framework for virtual asset activities within the region, aiming to foster financial stability and consumer protection.

The more profound and complex policy impacts are unfolding in the United States. The Trump administration’s “Big Beautiful Tax Plan”, aimed at reducing taxes by $5 trillion over the next decade, has boosted market sentiment in the short term. However, the growing fiscal deficit and debt ceiling issues could spark liquidity volatility.

Regarding regulation, the U.S. Senate is making progress on stablecoin legislation. The GENIUS Act seeks to establish a standardized framework for the stablecoin market, mandating backing by 100% high-quality asset reserves. Negotiations have reportedly reached a consensus on approximately 90% of the terms, signaling a strong bipartisan push for regulatory clarity in this critical sector.

Additionally, the accelerated exploration of tokenized U.S. equities is noteworthy, with the U.S. SEC is actively researching and evaluating this space, while major financial institutions (e.g., JPMorgan) are strategically positioning themselves in this emerging field.

Furthermore, U.S. federal and state initiatives to legislate “strategic Bitcoin reserves,” such as New Hampshire’s H.B. 302 bill, are further elevating Bitcoin’s strategic importance and providing policy support for increased institutional participation.These developments collectively indicate a growing recognition and integration of digital assets within traditional financial and governmental structures.

HTX Lists USD1 and Other Compliant Stablecoins, Introduces Zero-Fee Conversion

With global policy easing on the horizon and a growing push for regulatory clarity, stablecoins are increasingly solidifying their role as the foundation of liquidity and value pegs within the crypto market. Recognizing this pivotal opportunity, HTX has recently launched a range of compliant stablecoins, including USD1 (World Liberty Financial USD), USDQ (Quantoz), EURQ (Quantoz), USDR (StablR),  EURR (StablR),and AETHUSDT (Aave Ethereum USDT). This expansion is designed to meet diverse user investment preferences and boost capital efficiency.

To celebrate the launch of USD1 and reduce barriers to user participation, HTX is offering a special zero-fee conversion service. From now until December 31, 2025, at 15:59 (UTC), users can trade the USD1/USDT spot pair with no trading fees. This initiative ensures users incur no additional costs during conversion, thereby maximizing their capital utilization.

The report concludes that the Bitcoin market may encounter liquidity pressures and volatility risks in the short term. However, the medium to long term holds significant potential for a rebound. This optimistic outlook is largely supported by clearer regulatory policies and growing institutional adoption. . HTX will continue to closely monitor market and regulatory trends to help users seize opportunities and achieve steady growth in the complex and evolving crypto landscape.
