PLANO, Texas, Sept. 17, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — Aduna, the global aggregator of standardized network APIs, today announced a partnership with Spark, New Zealand’s leading digital services provider, to accelerate the adoption of advanced network APIs across the country. With Spark joining Aduna’s growing global ecosystem, New Zealand becomes part of a worldwide federation of operators bringing network intelligence to developers and enterprises through a unified platform.

The partnership will initially focus on SIM Swap detection and Number Verification APIs, providing enterprises with real-time tools to verify customer identities and safeguard digital transactions. These APIs are particularly critical for industries such as banking, financial services, e-commerce, and digital platforms, where fraud prevention and seamless onboarding are essential to trust and growth.

For developers, collaboration unlocks the ability to build new services that integrate network intelligence directly into applications to reduce friction in customer authentication, improving security for online transactions, and creating richer, more responsive user experiences. By accessing these APIs through Aduna, developers in New Zealand gain the same consistent standards already used across North America, Europe, Asia, Australia, and Africa, enabling them to scale solutions across markets.

“Partnering with Spark extends Aduna’s global footprint to New Zealand, opening new opportunities for enterprises and developers,” says Anthony Bartolo, CEO, Aduna. “By delivering standardized APIs, we enable businesses to strengthen digital trust and give developers the tools to build secure, user-friendly services that drive real value.”

“At Spark, we see this partnership with Aduna as an important step in unlocking new ways to monetize our network investments,” said Renee Mateparae, Network and Operations Director at Spark. “It allows us to capture the full value of our network capabilities while giving our business customers access to sophisticated connectivity solutions that solve challenges.

TOKYO, Sept. 17, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — During Asia’s premier Web3 technology conference, WebX 2025 (Aug 25–26) in Tokyo, an Exclusive Financial Leadership Summit that may reshape Asia’s digital financial landscape was held at the 33rd floor of the Prince Hotel. The forum, titled “Powering Asia’s Financial Transformation with Bitcoin and RWA,” was co-hosted by global blockchain leader Blockstream, digital asset security solutions expert Safeheron, and Asia-based on-chain wealth management infrastructure builder EchoX. The event gathered nearly 100 senior decision-makers from the banking, asset management, securities, and regtech sectors across Japan, Taiwan, Singapore, and Hong Kong to discuss the next paradigm shift in Asia’s on-chain asset management.

Unique Collaboration to Build Multi-Layered Infrastructure

At the summit, the three companies officially announced a collaboration to jointly develop a multi-layered blockchain-based financial infrastructure on Bitcoin Layer 2, Liquid Network:

• Blockstream provides the Liquid Network as the foundational platform for stablecoin issuance and real-world asset (RWA) tokenization.
• Safeheron offers MPC-based self-custody and asset governance solutions.
• EchoX leads product design and regional integration, enabling compliant on-chain financial services tailored for Asia.

This partnership aims to create a compliant, secure, and deployable on-chain asset framework, accelerating the migration of traditional financial capital into blockchain ecosystems.

Policy and Industry Endorsement

Ju-Chun Ko, a Taiwanese legislator known for his technology leadership, delivered the opening remarks in person. He emphasized: “On-chain finance is not an extension of risk, but an opportunity for institutional innovation.” He also called for Asia to establish “innovation that can be regulated, infrastructure that can be verified, and systems that can be interoperable.”

Keynotes and Cross-Sector Dialogues

• Neil Lee, CEO of EchoX, shared insights on how on-chain wealth management bridges TradFi and DeFi, offering regulatory-aligned solutions tailored to Asia’s market needs.
• Adam Back, CEO of Blockstream, delivered a keynote on “The Bitcoin Operating System”, outlining the strategic role of the Liquid Network as institutional-grade infrastructure.

Following the keynotes, two executive-level panel discussions addressed the institutionalization of Bitcoin Layer 2 and RWA, as well as the challenges of trust and compliance in digital finance transformation.

Forum Conclusion: Asia Is Redefining the Coordinates of On-Chain Finance

The consensus was clear: Asia is no longer merely a participant but is becoming a primary architect of global on-chain finance. The forum highlighted four core themes expected to shape financial reform over the next decade:

1. Bitcoin Layer 2: Liquid as a Service (LaaS)
   Regional sidechains can share the security and TVL advantages of the Liquid Network while co-developing regulatory and best-practice standards.
2. RWA (Real-World Asset Tokenization)
   Serving as a bridge between traditional finance and blockchain, RWA enhances capital efficiency and cross-border accessibility.
3. Self-Custody & RegTech Evolution
   Empowering financial institutions to securely manage and utilize digital assets within a compliant framework, advancing institutional adoption.
4. Asia’s Financial Transformation and Regulatory Innovation
    Leveraging innovation and policy adaptation to shape the direction of financial reform for the coming decade.

At WebX 2025 in Tokyo, this Exclusive Financial Leadership Summit was recognized as a defining coordinate on Asia’s financial map. The future of asset allocation is being redefined here, and the financial landscape of the next decade will be written from this point forward.

CHANGZHOU, China, Sept. 17, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — On September 13, the International New Energy Exhibition 2025 opened in Changzhou under the theme “New Energy, New Power, New Changzhou.” At the opening ceremony, 33 significant agreements were finalized on-site, representing a combined investment of more than 33.7 billion yuan.

“During the 15th Five-Year Plan period, Changzhou aims to maintain its leading edge in manufacturing, accelerate progress in applied technologies, and adopt a forward-looking approach to emerging industries, with the goal of building a renewable energy hub that represents Jiangsu’s commitment to sustainable growth while strengthening its global competitiveness,” stated Wang Jianfeng, Secretary of the Changzhou Municipal Committee of the Communist Party of China (CPC), at the ceremony.

In recent years, Changzhou has taken the lead in creating a comprehensive renewable energy industry chain that spans five segments: generation, storage, transmission, utilization, and grid. The results have been striking. Last year, the city’s renewable energy sector surpassed 850 billion yuan in output, and this year it is on track to break the 1 trillion yuan mark.

This year’s expo also drew attention for its “dual-IP” approach. On the evening of the opening ceremony, the 11th round of the Jiangsu City Football League — Changzhou vs. Suqian — was held at the Changzhou Olympic Sports Center, drawing more than 40,000 fans. Although Changzhou fell short with a 2–1 loss, the atmosphere inside and outside the stadium energized the city well beyond the final score.

“As September marks a season of achievement, the renewable energy industry and the Jiangsu City Football League are joining forces in a ‘dual-IP partnership,’ opening a new chapter of industrial growth and community engagement in Changzhou,” noted Zhou Wei, Deputy Secretary of the CPC Changzhou Municipal Committee and Mayor of Changzhou. He invited entrepreneurs, scientists, investors, and innovators from around the world to become Changzhou’s partners and contributors to Changzhou’s vision for the future.
