Blockhive Partners With Agrello in New Crowdfunding Innovation

Published

on

Blockchain technology is enabling the borderless transfer of value in its simplest form without the interference of intermediaries. This is a property that has encouraged the effective fundraising processes being adopted by various startups and existing organizations for purposes of project development and expansion, as the case may be.

A new fundraising method

One of the latest fundraising methods being introduced into the industry is the Initial Loan Procurement (ILP) process. This system is similar to the more popular Initial Coin Offering (ICO) procedure, only that in this case, the funds are raised in the form of loans, rather than coins acquisition.

The more popular ICO system has exposed the industry to a lot of new opportunities that did not exist before now. Generally, the ICO process enables individuals from any part of the world to have direct investment access to opportunities that had hitherto been beyond their reach. Also, on the part of companies, it opened up new and easier sources, enabling them to get funding from anyone who gets interested in their projects from anywhere in the world in exchange for tokens.

Limitations of older methods

Despite the benefits of the ICO processes, the inherent limitations are becoming even more pronounced as numerous companies adopt the system, which is a subject of concern. For instance, the laws and regulations that are emanating from some countries are categorically unfriendly towards ICOs. The outright bans from China and the restriction of crypto-related ads by Facebook are some of the eventualities that are hampering the ICO processes. Besides, the search for appropriate tax implementation processes has also led to certain restrictions from countries like the United States. Some other countries even consider money raised through ICOs as income, therefore subjecting such to high taxing, even as much as 40% in some cases.

In finding a solution to these limitations, while retaining the benefits of Blockchain technology, Blockhive is partnering with Agrello to create an alternative model of decentralized fundraising that does not involve token purchase. This model implements a smart contract agreement between borrowers and creditors through a process known as Initial Loan Procurement (ILP). Being a loan, hence a debt, such contributions will not be bound by unreasonable tax systems, neither will they be bound by the various restrictions and challenges faced by ICOs.

KYC implementation

With a legally sound structure and proper KYC implementation procedures, the Blockhive system ensures proper fraud prevention and anti-money laundering. Each contract is recorded on the blockchain, thereby ensuring a transparent and immutable system that cannot be altered.

In other words, to have access and transact on the Blockhive platform, users must fully register and receive the protocol’s Future Loan Access Tokens (FLAT) as soon as they lend funds to the company. It is these tokens that will enable the transfer of loan agreements among users. The funds lent however are in the form of cryptocurrency, as those are the payment methods supported by the platform.

A robust partnership

Hence, Agrello’s ID and its binding loan agreement, coupled with Blockhive’s FLAT combine to form a robust decentralized loan platform. Therefore, instead of investing in tokens whose future depends largely on external market forces of demand rather than the fundamental organic growth of its parent company, the ILP system offers a different kind of benefit. This benefit involves a more guaranteed long-term interest, enabling creditors to earn 20% of the annual operational profits of Blockhive. A figure that could increase as more products gets developed on the platform.

MEY Network Announces Property Token Offering NFTs to Revolutionize Real Estate Ownership

Published

on

MEY Network has announced the launch of its Property Token Offering (PTO) NFTs, a blockchain-based solution designed to facilitate fractional ownership of high-value real estate assets across global markets.

The initiative aims to increase accessibility to premium real estate by allowing individuals to invest in tokenized property shares. Each PTO NFT represents a verified fraction of a real-world property, offering holders exposure to potential rental income, capital appreciation, and the ability to trade their assets on supported secondary marketplaces.

Real estate has traditionally been accessible only to institutional investors and high-net-worth individuals,” said a spokesperson for MEY Network. “With PTO NFTs, we are introducing a model that broadens access while leveraging blockchain for transparency and liquidity.

Key Features of PTO NFTs include:

  • Fractional Ownership: Users can invest in property shares at significantly lower entry points compared to traditional real estate.
  • Income Potential: Holders may receive a portion of rental distributions, depending on property performance.
  • Liquidity: Tokenized shares are tradeable on compatible NFT marketplaces, allowing flexible entry and exit.
  • Global Reach: Over 40 tokenized properties are currently available across major cities worldwide.

Whitelist Access for Early Participants

To coincide with the launch, MEY Network has opened a limited whitelist round. Participants in this phase will gain early access to select property offerings and benefit from initial pricing not available after the public launch. Additional incentives include potential staking rewards and ecosystem-based benefits.

About MEY Network

Space and Time Launches on Mainnet to Power a New Generation of Data-Driven Crypto Apps

Published

on

Microsoft-backed Space and Time is the blockchain for ZK-proven data.

Space and Time, the Microsoft-backed blockchain for zero-knowledge (ZK)-proven data, is live on its public, permissionless mainnet.

Space and Time is designed to deliver ZK-proven data to smart contracts to power a new generation of data-driven crypto applications. It indexes data from other major blockchains, including Ethereum, and stores it across a decentralized network of database validators. Developers can access, query ZK-prove and connect this data back to their smart contract using Proof of SQL, Space and Time’s sub-second ZK coprocessor for SQL database queries.

“Prior to Space and Time, onchain applications had no way to query basic user data from a database of blockchain activity without introducing security risks and tampering. In addition, enterprises had no way to securely connect their cloud databases with smart contracts. Today we’re thrilled to announce the mainnet launch of Space and Time, which will empower developers to build sophisticated, data-driven onchain applications secured by cryptographic proofs,” said Scott Dykstra, Contributor #001 at Space and Time.

Smart contracts today can’t natively access historical, cross-chain or offchain data, which limits the complexity of onchain apps. Chainlink pioneered external data access for smart contracts with secure oracles and cross-chain messaging, solving key pieces of the context problem. The next wave of onchain innovation—spanning everything from dynamic financial instruments to data-rich AI agents and tokenized real-world systems—will require a trustless database layer for complex data retrieval. Space and Time enables this with a verifiable, decentralized database network that gives smart contracts the ability to query the full history of Ethereum and beyond.

“Smart contracts need context to make decisions, whether it’s real-time market data, cross-chain messaging or historical onchain activity. Chainlink provides the connective tissue for data to move securely across systems, and Space and Time brings powerful new compute capabilities that complement that vision. Together, we’re pushing the boundaries of what developers can build onchain,” said Sergey Nazarov, Co-Founder of Chainlink.

Space and Time was created by MakeInfinite Labs, a frontier protocol research lab that is backed by Microsoft and working alongside major financial institutions. In addition to its work on Space and Time, the firm has developed key technologies to the broader crypto ecosystem, such as Proof of SQL, Blitzar, an Elastic Network ZK Chain for Space and Time, and Chainlink DeFi Yield Index.

“At MakeInfinite Labs, we’re focused on building foundational infrastructure to enable the next generation of crypto applications. Contributing core technologies like Proof of SQL and the original architecture of Space and Time is part of that vision. We’re excited to see the ecosystem take this work forward and unlock new possibilities for verifiable, data-driven applications,” said Nate Holiday, CEO of MakeInfinite Labs & Co-Founder of Space and Time.

Space and Time is secured by a decentralized set of validators, and anyone can contribute to the network by providing high-quality datasets, staking or running a validator node.

About Space and Time

Space and Time is the blockchain for ZK-proven data, which enables smart contracts to trustlessly access and compute over data from any chain or source. Powered by Proof of SQL, a sub-second ZK coprocessor, Space and Time empowers developers to build more intelligent, data-rich applications with verifiable data.

About MakeInfinite Labs

MakeInfinite Labs is a frontier protocol research lab contributing to some of the most prominent protocols and ecosystems across crypto, including the creation of Space and Time. MakeInfinite Labs raised $50 million from Microsoft’s M12 Ventures and other leading investors to build the infrastructure that enables developers and creators to build data-driven applications, tokenize and monetize and win in the AI economy.

The Next Generation of Crypto Users Isn’t Looking for Another Wallet, They’re Looking for Access – EB1

Published

on

Over the past decade, blockchain innovation has largely revolved around infrastructure. From the rise of Layer 1 protocols and decentralized finance (DeFi) to recent developments in real-world asset tokenization (RWA), technical progress has been both rapid and expansive.

Yet even with over $90 billion in DeFi total value locked (TVL) as of early 2025, mainstream adoption remains elusive. For many consumers, interacting with crypto still involves unfamiliar interfaces, unclear value propositions, and a lack of integration with daily financial behavior. This usability gap has major implications beyond convenience – it limits the reach of even the most technically advanced protocols. Projects struggle not because the tech isn’t working, but because users can’t connect with it.

From Architecture to Access

In response, a new generation of crypto companies is emerging – those that build not at the protocol layer, but at what could be called the experience layer. These ventures prioritize user experience, real-world utility, and embedded financial services over purely technical innovation.

While this shift may challenge the ideals of crypto purists – the builders, maximalists, and mission-driven technologists who shaped the early industry – it reflects a growing consensus that adoption won’t come from ideology alone. Success will depend on delivering intuitive, credible experiences that fit naturally into users’ financial lives.

EB1: Bridging Digital Wealth with Real-World Access

One company illustrating this shift is EB1, a crypto-native venture set to launch its core products in Q3 2025. EB1’s mission is to bridge digital wealth with real-world access by building a seamless interface between on-chain value and off-chain experiences.

At the core of the EB1 platform are three interconnected components:

  • EB1 Pay – a crypto-native payment solution with real-time crypto-to-fiat spending via the EB1 Visa Card
  • EB1 Premium Services – in-app access to a curated range of lifestyle, travel, and concierge offerings
  • EB1 Network – a private community designed to deliver tangible value through member connections

The team behind EB1 draws on extensive experience across payments, digital assets, luxury services, and high-growth product development, with backgrounds at firms like PwC, CVC Credit Partners, and other leading financial institutions.

The Paradigm Shift: From Protocols to Products

Historically, many tokenized projects have launched with minimal utility, often sustained more by speculative enthusiasm than by real-world adoption. This model can distort focus, pushing teams toward sustaining market hype rather than solving user problems.

EB1 takes a different approach. Early-stage development has been funded by the team and select aligned seed investors. Rather than raising capital on promises, EB1 has chosen to build, test, and monetize early – ensuring that any future public fundraising is grounded in demonstrated user traction and clear value creation.

This approach reflects a broader shift in philosophy across the crypto space: the future will belong not to the most technically intricate protocols, but to the products that deliver meaningful, accessible experiences at scale.

Looking Ahead

The broader takeaway isn’t just about EB1 – it’s about where crypto is going next. Infrastructure remains critical, but without intuitive interfaces and clear benefits, users won’t come.

Companies that succeed in the next wave will meet users where they are: mobile-first, always-on, and expecting financial tools that match the polish and convenience of leading consumer fintech products. In that sense, the real innovation may not lie in the next Layer 2 or staking primitive, but in delivering useful, credible, and profitable experiences to millions of people.

Team behind popular Telegram wallet Grindery reveals wallet infrastructure for AI agents

Published

on

The Binance Labs-backed company is building Aventino, the permissionless payments layer for autonomous AI agents.

Following the success of its Binance Labs-incubated (now Yzi Labs) self-custodial crypto wallet with 3.5 billion users, Grindery has turned its sights on building the permissionless payments layer for AI agents. The team behind the popular smart wallet is proud to reveal its latest product, Aventino, a developer-focused infrastructure layer that provides smart wallets for AI agents.

With Aventino, Grindery is bringing financial autonomy to AI agents. I. Aventino provides the tools to build an ecosystem where AI agents can operate independently, owning wallets, making payments, interacting with blockchain protocols, and establishing their own tokenized communities across platforms like Telegram, WhatsApp, XMT and the open web.

Aventino is a permissionless smart wallet infrastructure that uses Ethereum account abstraction protocol ERC4337. The platform lets developers:

  • Build an AI agent on any LLM, use any framework, and distribute on any client and/or device.
  • Enable these agents to pay and get paid, interact with protocols, and issue their own tokens (allowing for tokenized agents).
  • Build communities around their agents, enabling new forms of governance and growth.

“We believe the future of AI requires financial autonomy — not just intelligence of agents,” said Tim Delhaes, Grindery’s CEO and co-founder, adding: “Aventino empowers developers to build platform-agnostic agents that can transact, govern, and evolve on their own. Just like mobile apps created a layer between users and the internet, agentic AI will create a new layer between users and the AI models that power their digital lives. And it will be powered by crypto.”

Backed by Binance Labs (now YZi Labs)

Grindery’s journey began in 2022 in Binance Labs’ incubation program, building what was once dubbed the “Zapier for Web3.” After 3.5 million users registered on its Telegram smart wallet, Grindery saw the opportunity to leverage the infrastructure it has built for its consumer application to expand into a much bigger market: empowering AI agents as autonomous economic actors.

Aventino’s core capabilities

With the launch of Aventino, developers will be able to build fully autonomous, highly customized AI agents that are interoperable, decentralized, and monetizable — without being locked into closed ecosystems. The platform’s core features include:

  • Self-custodial wallets for AI agents – Built on ERC-4337 account abstraction, enabling agents to interact natively with DeFi and web3 protocols.
  • Creator-centric stack – Tech-agnostic and platform-agnostic tools to publish on Telegram, WhatsApp, web, and decentralized clients like XMTP.
  • Agent tokenization & monetization – Optional token issuance for agents to support governance, liquidity, and community co-ownership.
  • Turnkey monetization – Agents can accept payments via traditional fiat methods like Apple Pay and Google Pay, as well as in crypto.

“AI agents should be free to evolve, interact, and earn,” added Delhaes. “With Aventino, we’re building the rails for that vision — and enabling a future where anyone can build AI agents with real-world utility and governance, powered by crypto.”

GX is the currency of AI

Last month, Grindery launched its universal gas token, GX, which is now trading on major CEXs KuCoin, MEXC, and Gate.io, as well as DEXs Uniswap and STON.fi, and DeFi aggregator LI.FI.

The launch of Aventino, however, significantly extends the utility of the GX token. Beyond crosschain gas payments, as well as governance, GX will be used for agent-to-agent transactions, facilitating seamless payments across platforms. GX will also be required to deploy new agents and tokenize them via bonding curves, providing access and incubation mechanisms for the next generation of AI builders.

Partnership opportunities

Grindery is actively seeking partnerships with:

  • LLM platforms looking to expand their reach
  • Messaging clients and protocols
  • Wallet providers
  • No- and low-code platforms
  • Blockchain protocols with AI ambitions

Interested collaborators can reach out to the contacts below to explore integration and co-building opportunities.

What’s next

Grindery has already launched an idea forum to crowd-source ideas and requests for customized AI agents from the community. The project also onboards developers from AI, crypto, and domain-specific fields. The following 4–8 weeks will mark a pivotal phase as the team accelerates the development of Aventino as it transitions from private to public beta.

To join the conversation, contribute ideas, or build on Aventino, users can visit Grindery.com.

About Grindery

Grindery is building the permissionless payment layer for autonomous AI agents. Powered by GX and backed by Yzi Labs (formerly Binance Labs), we enable secure, interoperable transactions between web3-native AI agents across any chain or framework. By giving agents and humans financial autonomy through crypto-native wallets, Grindery is laying the foundation for a decentralized, agentic AI future.
