ALYI Chooses Bigger Investment Market with Less Competition
Dallas, Texas–(Newsfile Corp. – September 1, 2020) – Alternet Systems, Inc. (OTC Pink: ALYI), in advance of a funding release schedule for tomorrow from its investment partner RevoltTOKEN (www.revolttoken.com), announced today its optimism in the success of both realizing its $100 million funding object through RevoltTOKEN’s upcoming ICO, and exceeding far beyond its initial $300 million African electric mobility sales goals.
ALYI management highlighted today that most other notable electric vehicle (EV) companies are pursuing IPOs and SPACS to fund their business plans.
Statista reports, “The share of U.S. companies that were profitable after their IPO has been falling since a decade high of 81 percent in 2009. In 2018, this figure had dropped to only 28 percent, which may spell bad news for this form of raising capital.”
Investopedia reports that the SPAC market in 2019 was $13.6 billion. Statista reports the ICO market in 2019 was $14.8 billion.
While one EV company after another announces a SPAC merger, ALYI, virtually in a field by itself, pursues the larger and growing ICO market.
While ALYI management is pursuing an investment road less traveled, the investment market trends indicate ALYI’s path is taking the company in a promising direction.
ALYI’s investment strategy is consistent with its market sector development strategy. While most EV companies pursue the replacement of existing internal combustion engine powered vehicles within developed economies, ALYI is focusing on bringing technology leapfrog EV solutions to developing economic regions where adequate existing per capita transportation solutions are not yet in place and have dramatic room for growth.
ALYI intends to feature a news release tomorrow, September 2, 2020, from its funding partner, RevoltTOKEN (www.revolttoken.com). RevoltTOKEN has recently secured what it refers to as “the last key component” necessary to proceed with a $100 million investment transaction to fund ALYI’s $300 million electric mobility initiative in Africa that could soon be a $500 million initiative.

ALYI has entered into a comprehensive funding agreement with RevoltTOKEN that includes an existing $25 million first tranche investment commitment at $0.05 per share. ALYI has initiated a $2.5 million draw down on the first $25 million to begin construction on a 100-acre facility in Africa. Overall, RevoltTOKEN intends to invest $100 million in ALYI in conjunction with an independent initial cryptocurrency offering (ICO).
RevoltTOKEN has already partitioned a cryptocurrency on the Ethereum Blockchain in advance of the planned ICO.
ALYI’s funding partner, RevoltTOKEN (www.revolttoken.com) will present a comprehensive update tomorrow, Wednesday, September 2, 2020 on the $100 million transaction intended to fund ALYI’s electric mobility business. In addition to featuring the key component now in place, the presentation will include an overall update on progress toward the launch of the RevoltTOKEN initial cryptocurrency offering (ICO). Based on both individual investor and institutional investor response, the presentation will specifically include an overview on how the $100 million funding target could well be exceeded.

P2 Ventures Commits $50M Via Hadron FC to Startup Founders in Polygon Ecosystem
Last year, P2 Ventures emerged as a distinct entity from Polygon Labs, with a focus on blockchain investments. Now, it’s earmarking funds and providing mentorship to bolster project founders, particularly those concentrated on the Polygon blockchain ecosystem. A contributor from Hadron FC remarked that the community offered the perfect blend of “capital and vibes.”
P2 Ventures, a venture capital firm with a blockchain emphasis, was established late last year as a separate entity from developer Polygon Labs. It has pledged $50 million to support startup founders, potentially igniting fresh initiatives within the Polygon ecosystem.
The investment from P2 Ventures will be channeled to founders via Hadron FC, a program tailored for founders with hubs in Dubai and New York, according to a press release. This program encompasses mentorship, legal and regulatory guidance, networking opportunities, and “comprehensive assistance in navigating the complexities of startup development and fundraising,” the release stated. Among the initial 36 projects onboarded, several participated in a week of collaborative efforts at the Dubai facility. Shreyansh Singh, head of investments at P2 Ventures, expressed confidence in Hadron Club’s unparalleled capacity to nurture the aspirations of forward-thinking founders within the Polygon ecosystem.
Ajit Tripathi, a core contributor at Hadron FC, noted that the community provided the ideal mix of “support, capital, and ambiance.”
Initially part of Polygon Labs, the principal developer of various Polygon layer-2 networks built on Ethereum, P2 Ventures transitioned into an independent unit with its own 10-person team late last year, rebranding itself as P2 Ventures.

Blockchain sleuth uncovers identity of PrismaFi’s hacker, who stole $11m
Blockchain investigator ZachXBT uncovered the purported perpetrator behind the PrismaFi breach, which resulted in the protocol losing $11.1 million worth of cryptocurrency. Through a series of posts, ZachXBT disclosed that the individual behind the attack, identified as 0x77 (or Trung), may be connected to several other breaches.
The Prisma team initially detected a sequence of transactions on the MigrateTroveZap contract in March, ultimately resulting in a loss of 3,257 ETH (equivalent to $11.1 million at the time). Initially, the attacker communicated with the Prisma deployer, claiming the attack was a white-hat initiative. However, all funds were subsequently transferred to Tornado Cash, a sanctioned cryptocurrency mixer.
The attacker then made audacious demands, including a $3.8 million (34%) white-hat bounty, significantly higher than the industry standard of 10%, as noted by ZachXBT, who highlighted that this demand was essentially extortion, given the insufficient assets in the treasury to reimburse users.
Further investigation revealed that the attacker’s address received funds via FixedFloat and was subsequently traced to Arbitrum, a layer-2 solution on Ethereum. By analyzing timing, ZachXBT determined that the attacker’s address was linked to withdrawals on TRON, including those from the Bybit cryptocurrency exchange.
The investigation also unveiled connections to prior breaches, such as the Arcade_xyz breach from March 2023 and the Pine Protocol breach from February of the current year. The attacker, utilizing the alias 0x77 on Telegram, remained active and had ties to the deployer of @modulusprotocol, further solidifying the connection between each incident.
Furthermore, the investigator disclosed conducting an analysis of the attacker’s personal information, including phone numbers and emails, which indicated a proficient technical background. All collected personal data has been forwarded to the Prisma team, who are pursuing legal action against the hacker in Vietnam and Australia, ZachXBT added.

Bybit CEO: “Institutions Driving Today’s Crypto Bull Market” – At Blockchain Life 2024 Dubai
During a discussion among industry leaders at the Blockchain Life conference in Dubai, Bybit CEO Ben Zhou emphasized the preparedness and sophistication of contemporary cryptocurrency exchanges (CEXs). Zhou, who co-founded Bybit in 2018, now stands at the helm of one of the world’s top three exchanges by trading volume.
At the event, Zhou shed light on various facets that underscore the current era of crypto maturity. “From Bybit’s standpoint, this ongoing bull market has been primarily propelled by institutional involvement… Our collaboration with third-party custodians like Copper and Fireblocks led to a 186% increase in institutional capital flows last year,” Zhou noted. He highlighted the pivotal role of enhanced infrastructure and the approval of Bitcoin spot ETFs in facilitating institutional participation in the crypto market.
Zhou has overseen meticulous upgrades to Bybit since the previous crypto bull run in 2021, enabling institutional investors to deploy larger capital pools. “Bybit boasts a highly versatile trading system that accommodates trading of any token against any other,” Zhou remarked during his live address on the main stage. “This affords our institutional clients a plethora of tools, enabling them to engage in spread trades, arbitrage funding rates, and various sophisticated trading strategies. This capability has facilitated the influx of new capital into the crypto space.”
Furthermore, Zhou highlighted the evolution of service reliability amidst market volatility. “Our risk management and system resilience have undergone continuous enhancements,” he affirmed. “Even during turbulent market conditions, Bybit maintains its stability.” This stability serves as a testament to the advanced infrastructure supporting both institutional investors and the exchange’s 25 million retail users.
Zhou also emphasized Bybit’s efforts to empower retail clients with access to products that simplify sophisticated trading strategies. “We offer a unique product known as perpetual protect, which utilizes options contracts to safeguard perpetual positions from losses,” Zhou explained. “Additionally, our advanced Unified Trading Account (UTA) design provides traders with a competitive edge in the market.” These initiatives aim to demystify derivatives and options, making complex financial instruments more accessible and comprehensible to a broader audience.
As the crypto market continues to mature, Bybit remains at the forefront, spearheading innovations that align with evolving market trends and regulatory standards. This proactive stance not only signifies a significant milestone for Bybit but also underscores the overall advancement of the crypto exchange industry.
