ICN wins investment from tech VC to expand decentralized cloud services

Impossible Cloud Network (ICN), Web3’s leading decentralized cloud network, is announcing a new investment from NGP Capital, the venture capital firm that invested in Helium, is backed by telecommunications giant Nokia, and has just valued ICN at $470 million.

Led by tech entrepreneur Kai Wawrzinek, founder of NASDAQ Unicorn Goodgame Studios, ICN is meeting increasing demand for data-sovereign cloud solutions. The funding round from NGP has attracted substantial interest from Web2 leaders keen to expand into this growing sector.

Commenting on this significant milestone, Wawrzinek says: “With NGP Capital, we’ve found a perfect partner with deep expertise in cloud and edge computing that can advise on large-scale infrastructure projects. We are thrilled to be partnered with an investor who believes in ICN’s vision.”

With over $5 million of annual recurring revenue, ICN is already proving the case for decentralized cloud models, which offer significant cost savings compared to centralized providers. ICN’s research shows decentralized cloud solutions are 80% cheaper for enterprises than Amazon Web Services (AWS), while network performance is often superior.

More than this, decentralized cloud services are immune to centralized data control, manipulation, and information loss. By their very nature, decentralized networks also promote user empowerment and foster data sovereignty – both increasingly important factors in the age of AI.

NGP Capital has a history of backing transformative Web2 and Web3 companies, including Xiaomi and Helium. The firm has over $1.6 billion of assets under management and boasts 19 unicorns and 11 IPO exits. As such, its investment in ICN is a strong signal that data sovereignty and decentralized architecture are crucial future technologies.

Ossi Tiainen, Partner of NGP Capital, says, “We believe ICN’s innovative decentralized approach has the potential to reshape the global cloud landscape, providing data protection and data sovereignty where it doesn’t exist now. The company’s impressive traction and experienced team make ICN a serious contender among the next generation of cloud infrastructure providers, and we’re excited to be on board.”

ICN is currently poised to list its native token $ICNT, which will play a pivotal role in the ecosystem by rewarding independent node operators and providing governance rights to key stakeholders. The token’s upcoming launch on leading centralized exchanges will boost both accessibility and ecosystem growth as the firm expands globally.

Real estate tokenization is rapidly evolving from an experimental concept into a viable tool for asset management, fractional ownership, and cross-border investment. With forecasts from firms like BCG estimating the tokenized asset market could reach $16 trillion by 2030, interest in blockchain-based real estate structures is accelerating globally. Regulatory bodies in key markets—including the UAE, UK, EU, and Singapore—are beginning to issue clearer guidance, which is removing many of the legal uncertainties that once limited adoption.

Investors, especially younger and internationally mobile ones, are increasingly drawn to tokenized models that offer digital ownership, real-time access, and transparent revenue streams. Meanwhile, asset sponsors and property developers are exploring tokenization as a way to tap into global capital without the friction of intermediaries or fragmented processes. However, significant operational and compliance challenges remain — particularly around legal structuring, KYC/AML obligations, investor protection, and technical implementation.

Tokenizer.Estate Responds with End-to-End Infrastructure

Against this backdrop, Tokenizer.Estate has launched a global platform designed to address the full complexity of real estate tokenization in a single, unified solution. The platform supports property developers, real estate funds, and private asset owners through every stage of the tokenization lifecycle — from legal structuring to smart contract development to investor onboarding.

Tokenizer.Estate begins each project with a jurisdiction-specific legal framework, developed in collaboration with local legal experts to ensure alignment with securities laws, tax requirements, and investor protection standards. This modular legal approach is particularly valuable for cross-border projects, helping clients avoid common pitfalls related to jurisdictional mismatches or regulatory gaps.

On the technical side, the platform delivers custom smart contracts, backend infrastructure, and a white-label investor portal tailored to the sponsor’s brand and user flow. Integrated wallet support, KYC/AML verification, payment processing, and security layers ensure the offering is fully investor-ready. Token logic can accommodate various financial structures, including rental income distributions, performance-based returns, and buyback mechanisms — all deployed on-chain for automation and transparency.

Liquidity remains a challenge across the industry, and Tokenizer.Estate addresses this by embedding voluntary repurchase and revenue-sharing options into token contracts, with plans to support decentralized secondary trading in future iterations. Ongoing compliance monitoring and platform maintenance are also included, ensuring projects stay aligned with evolving regulations.

By offering a complete legal-tech-investor experience stack, Tokenizer.Estate removes many of the operational roadblocks that have slowed adoption of tokenized real estate. Its model reflects a broader shift in the market: from isolated pilots to scalable, regulated digital asset platforms built for global participation.

About Tokenizer.Estate

Tokenizer.Estate is a UAE-based end-to-end platform for real estate tokenization. It combines legal, technical, and user experience infrastructure to help developers and asset owners tokenize property securely, compliantly, and efficiently for global investor access.

Helix and Avalanche, with support from Faculty Group, today announced the launch of Fusion, a community-led initiative built to accelerate the creation of outcome-driven, domain-specific blockchain economies. Leveraging an innovative economic model to drive ecosystem coordination, Fusion enables developers, businesses, and protocols to access modular, programmable networks that deliver measurable real-world value.

“Fusion is about unlocking the next chapter of blockchain adoption,” said Fusion Core Contributor David Post. “We’re building a framework that goes beyond experimentation – enabling scalable, sector-specific solutions with real-world impact and value. By combining Avalanche’s performance with a powerful suite of modular services, Fusion gives builders the tools they need to deploy meaningful applications and connect them to a thriving, interoperable ecosystem.”

Fusion features a two-layer architecture: Composers, independent Layer 1 blockchains tailored for specific sectors like AI, decentralized science (DeSci), and decentralized physical infrastructure networks (DePIN), and Modules, plug-and-play services like compute, stablecoins, and biometric data that support Composers. Each Composer offers accessible SDKs and APIs, allowing developers to integrate services, deploy applications, and execute tasks.

Modules are an interoperable set of building blocks that can be combined through composers to create value for end users. This includes oracles for real-world data (e.g., weather, sports, commodities), financial services like asset swap platforms and treasury tools, identity verification, decentralized data storage, and reputation systems that offer users loyalty benefits or exclusive access via NFTs.

Fusion’s architecture is built on Avalanche’s high-performance stack, leveraging the C-Chain for fast, EVM-compatible smart contract execution and Interchain Messaging (ICM) for secure, efficient communication between composers and other Layer 1s. This ensures seamless interoperability and scalability across the ecosystem.

“Fusion equips developers with the tools they need to build impactful, real-world applications on live blockchain networks,” said Nicholas Mussallem, CEO of AvaCloud. “While AvaCloud streamlines Layer 1 network creation, Fusion enhances these networks once they’re operational. This initiative combines the best tools for scaling blockchain technology, creating tangible value, and driving widespread adoption across industries.”

Fusion is supported by $100 million in resources allocated to existing Avalanche programs – including Multiverse, Retro9000, InfraBUIDL and InfraBUIDL AI – to catalyze a new wave of ecosystem development. These funds will accelerate the launch of Composers in real-world verticals, support foundational Modules that provide critical infrastructure and services, and incentivize developers and builders to integrate Composer APIs and SDKs into practical, outcome-driven applications.

The initial Fusion ecosystem includes composers like Life Network, which helps healthcare institutions deploy AI-driven solutions for disease-specific use cases, such as stroke prevention. Other Composers include Kite AI, a decentralized AI model platform, and Tayga, focusing on DePIN resources. Fusion plans to launch additional composers in areas such as RWAs, Identity, and Defi in the near future along with convening best in class Modules through partners like QuickNode and Space and Time.

MANTRA, the Layer 1 blockchain purpose-built for real-world assets (RWAs), has entered into a strategic partnership with WIN Investments, a fintech platform pioneering regulated sports digital assets. This partnership represents a major step in MANTRA’s expansion into the world of sport, aligning with its broader mission to tokenize RWAs with a regulatory-first approach.

WIN has built a groundbreaking ecosystem that opens the door for fans and investors to participate in the global football transfer market. Through a regulated framework, WIN issues utility tokens and digital securities linked to real-world assets, including professional players and club rights. The flagship product leverages the FIFA Solidarity Mechanism, a system that rewards youth clubs when players they’ve trained are transferred internationally. This recurring income allows soccer clubs to further develop new talent, and enables investors to participate in future player transfer revenues. WIN is backed by Ripio Ventures and the Werthein Group, the principal stakeholder of DirecTV, Latin America’s largest sports broadcasting company.

“Partnering with MANTRA, a global leader in real-world asset tokenization, regulated by Dubai’s Virtual Assets Regulatory Authority (VARA), is a key milestone in our mission to turn the passion of sports into a new compliant class of Real World Sports Assets,” said Gonzalo Busnadiego, Co-CEO of WIN Investments. “This collaboration brings us closer to a future where fans and investors can connect with clubs and athletes in a more direct, transparent, and meaningful way.”

“FIFA’s 2024 Global Transfer Report details the football transfer market represents $66 billion in locked value, with $8.59 billion spent on transfers in 2024 alone. WIN’s Solidarity Mechanism unlocks 5% of this market—$3.3 billion—by offering access to player transfer revenues. WIN has $7.4 million in assets under management (AUM) from 130 player transfers across 16 partnered clubs, including stars like Alexis Mac Allister and Emiliano Martínez, and expects to exceed $20 million in tokenized assets by year-end.”

MANTRA and WIN Investments will establish a framework for the tokenization of WIN’s existing and future sports-related assets, with MANTRA providing the infrastructure and ecosystem to compliantly bring these offerings on-chain. Together, in the spirit of making investments in sports accessible and transparent, the two companies will develop and launch fan and investor-facing products within the MANTRA ecosystem.

Future initiatives scheduled for Q4 2025 include; WIN leveraging MANTRA as an infrastructure partner to expand the availability of its compliant sports products onchain with a focus upon transfer tokens. Transfer tokens represent a fraction of the future revenue derived from a player’s next transfer and are tied specifically to the FIFA Solidarity Mechanism.

“This partnership with WIN is a natural extension of MANTRA’s RWA vision of bringing the world’s financial ecosystem on-chain by being the preferred ledger of record for real world assets,” said John Patrick Mullin, CEO of MANTRA. “We see huge potential in combining the passion of sports with regulated, tokenized assets, and we believe Latin America is the perfect place to lead that charge.”

The partnership follows a string of announcements from MANTRA including; being awarded the first DeFi license from Dubai’s Virtual Assets Regulatory Authority (VARA) and creation of the RWAccelerator – a start-up program for builders and startups supported by Google Cloud.

The fastest-growing digital dollar-backed stablecoin has been supercharged with seamless, cross-chain mobility between Ethereum, BNB Chain, and other blockchain networks via Chainlink CCIP

World Liberty Financial, the DeFi protocol and governance platform inspired by President Donald J. Trump, and Chainlink, the standard for onchain finance, announced a landmark collaboration to accelerate the adoption of the world’s fastest-growing stablecoin, USD1. As part of this collaboration, World Liberty Financial has integrated Chainlink Cross-Chain Interoperability Protocol (CCIP) to expand access to the institutional-grade stablecoin by enabling secure transfers of USD1 across leading blockchain networks that would otherwise act as silos of value.

Backed by short-term U.S. government treasuries, U.S. dollar deposits, and other cash equivalents, the USD1 stablecoin has skyrocketed in record time to eclipse $2 billion in market capitalization. Chainlink supercharges USD1 with the ability to move seamlessly between Ethereum and BNB Chain networks, with an ambitious roadmap for additional blockchain integrations down the road.

“From the largest enterprises to consumer applications, we have seen extraordinary, worldwide demand for a trustworthy and purely digital US dollar stablecoin. USD1 is setting records because it was designed expressly for this purpose,” said Zach Witkoff, co-founder of World Liberty Financial. “Chainlink’s battle-tested infrastructure delivers the institutional-grade security and extensive reach needed to deliver USD1 into the hands of millions across a growing number of active, onchain ecosystems. WLFI’s partnership with Chainlink will accelerate and improve USD1’s utility for cross-border payments and will result in truly useful applications across DeFi and traditional finance. We’re creating a comprehensive platform for a dramatically improved financial future by building atop a rock-solid foundation.”

The WLFI/Chainlink integration for USD1 tackles critical security challenges that have plagued cross-chain solutions in years past, with approximately $2.8 billion lost in previous exploits at the intersections between blockchains. Having successfully safeguarded $75 billion in DeFi total value locked at its peak and having powered $20 trillion in transaction value, Chainlink’s solution meets the rigorous security requirements for an institutional-grade stablecoin like USD1.

“I’m very excited about the great work that WLFI has done on USD1, and we are thrilled about them selecting Chainlink CCIP as their chosen cross-chain solution for USD1,” said Sergey Nazarov, Co-Founder of Chainlink. “World Liberty Financial is doing important work to bring DeFi to both everyday users and major institutions. We’ve worked with WLFI from the very beginning, and it’s exciting to see that collaboration now live, bringing real utility to users around the world. The Chainlink standard — trusted by leading banks, governments, and financial market infrastructures — is a foundational part of this shift towards Web3, powering a more open, secure, and interconnected global economy.”

The integration of Chainlink CCIP to enable cross-chain transfers of USD1 builds upon a previous collaboration, where Chainlink’s Data Feeds were utilized in World Liberty Financial’s Aave v3 instance.

Starting today, DeFi users can begin transferring USD1 cross-chain through simple web interfaces such as https://transporter.io and with any bridge integrated with Chainlink CCIP.

About Chainlink

Chainlink is the standard for onchain finance, verifiable data, and cross-chain interoperability.

On the heels of WallStreetBets founder Jaime Rogozinski joining as Chief Strategy Officer, Wire Network is expanding their leadership team with four new executive hires to scale their mission of solving the current biggest problem in crypto: fragmentation.

Nick Greenawalt (Wanderers) joins as Chief Marketing Officer, Will Little (Prota Ventures) joins as Chief Operating Officer, Gavin Gillas (Project Venkman) joins as Head of Strategic Partnerships, and Rick Grimes (Microsoft, Yahoo!) joins as VP of Operations.

Wire Network has solved a problem that will move the digital economy into its next chapter by providing an essential solution that’s currently missing: a Universal Transaction Layer that connects all chains and eliminates the need for developers to choose just one. With Wire Network, distribution becomes exponential, not siloed. It’s a chain-agnostic foundation designed to complement — not compete with — existing ecosystems, delivering the infrastructure Web3 needs to finally scale to mainstream adoption.

For years, Wire Network’s CEO Ken DiCross has been strategically developing a solution to remove the barriers and challenges that have separated traditional and modern finance. Meanwhile, Rogozinski exposed the cracks in traditional finance by mobilizing millions of retail investors through WallStreetBets and now he’s bringing that action from Wall Street to crypto.

Today, Wire Network expands their powerhouse team with four executives who have both a rich history in traditional finance and a deep native understanding of crypto, to bolster their leadership as they prepare an aggressive go-to-market strategy to unify the fragmented crypto landscape.

Nick Greenawalt, joins as Chief Marketing Officer. Known for his work as CEO & Co-Founder of Wanderers—a pioneering Web3 sci-fi universe that evolved from an animated NFT collection into a full-fledged game backed by Animoca Brands—Nick specializes in marketing and narrative design that builds communities. His experience in blending immersive storytelling with scalable blockchain ecosystems positions him to lead creative marketing for strategic partnerships across all areas of blockchain from gaming to app development.

Will Little joins as Chief Operating Officer, bringing experience from over 100 portfolio investments and a proven track record incubating companies like Figment, which grew to a $1.4B valuation at their Series C in 2021. A former bioengineer turned software developer, startup founder, and investor, Will has also deployed blockchain infrastructure with NGOs in West Africa—insight he now brings to Wire Network’s mission of building accessible, globally impactful digital infrastructure.

Gavin Gillas joins as Head of Strategic Partnerships and will focus on partnerships that fulfill the promise of interoperability across blockchains for Wire’s expanding network. As the former CEO of Project Venkman, a blockchain startup that gained prominence through its launch of actor Bill Murray’s foray into NFTs as a form of modern storytelling, Gillas has a great history of developing transformative programs around intellectual property that redefine consumer engagement while fostering community and ownership.

Rick Grimes, a former Microsoft and Yahoo! Operations and Marketing leader joins as VP of Operations, bringing decades of experience in scaling operations at companies of all sizes. Grimes is responsible for operational enablement across the Wire Network business functions.

“We are at a pivotal moment for the global digital economy. If traditional finance is not looking at crypto, they’re missing out on a blockbuster moment,” said Jaime Rogozinski, CSO of Wire Network. “We get it – the space has been fragmented up until now. Wire Network has the solution to fix it.”

“We’re here to build the infrastructure layer the decentralized economy deserves,” said Ken DiCross, CEO of Wire Network. “With Jaime driving strategy and this all-star team joining us to scale engineering, product, partnerships, and ecosystem, we’re locking in the leadership to go from testnet to global protocol for mass adoption.”

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.
