Complete, corrected release follows:
ADDX expands investment products for accredited investors
SINGAPORE, Sept. 25, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — ADDX, one of Singapore’s leading wealthtech platform, is proud to distribute a new tokenised structured note issued by DBS, Southeast Asia’s largest bank by assets. This launch is not the first structured note on ADDX. There have been regular launches of equity-linked structured notes on the platform since the start of the year. In the coming months, ADDX will expand its suite of products to include currency-linked and credit-linked structured notes, offering investors even more options for yield, preservation, and participation.
This marks a significant milestone in ADDX’s mission to make private markets and private wealth services available to all by making quality finance easily accessible, driving capital to quality investments, and using leading-edge technology integrated with robust regulatory integrity.
Unlocking structured notes at lower entry points
Structured notes have long been accessible only to institutional or ultra-high-net-worth investors, often requiring minimum commitments of USD 100,000 or more. Through tokenisation technology, ADDX offers structured products in fractional units as low as SGD 20,000, lowering the entry barrier.
This development empowers a broader segment of accredited investors to diversify their portfolios with instruments. ADDX currently uses DBS as its custodian for structured notes.
Going beyond private blockchain
As a regulated private market platform, ADDX not only provides accredited investors seamless access to such products but is also expanding its technology to support public blockchain issuance and offering white-label tokenisation solutions for financial institutions, underscoring its role as a trusted partner in driving the next phase of digital finance innovation in Singapore and beyond.
Scaling the structured product universe
“This new tokenised structured note launch is a landmark moment for our platform and the broader wealthtech industry. It signals a new era where financial institutions can bring structured products to market with greater efficiency, while empowering investors with more choice and flexibility,” said Vianne Choo, Executive Director, Structured Derivatives at ADDX. “We are committed to deepening access to innovative products while preserving the security, compliance, and sophistication our users expect.”
ADDX is an investment platform headquartered in Singapore that provides accredited investors with access to private markets, alternatives, and differentiated opportunities to help them diversify and grow their wealth, all at lower minimums. With ADDX, investors can access high-quality investments across private equity, private credit, hedge funds, structured products, cash alternatives, fixed income, and more, using a convenient and user-friendly app and web platform. The platform uses digital securities and tokenisation technology to fractionalise investments, making traditionally institutional-grade opportunities more accessible.
ADDX has raised a total of US$140 million in funding since its inception in 2017. Its shareholders include Singapore Exchange (SGX), the Stock Exchange of Thailand, Temasek subsidiary Heliconia Capital, the Development Bank of Japan, UOB, Hamilton Lane, Tokai Tokyo Financial Holdings and KB Securities, a subsidiary of Korea’s largest banking group KB Financial Group.
ADDX has been approved by the Monetary Authority of Singapore as a recognised market operator. It also has a capital markets services license to deal in securities and collective investment schemes as well as to provide custodial services. It currently serves individual accredited investors from over 50 countries spanning Asia Pacific, Europe, Middle East and the Americas (except the US).

SEOUL, South Korea, Sept. 25, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — DESILO Inc. today announced the introduction of its THOR framework, a breakthrough in privacy-safe AI that enables large language model (LLM) inference to run fully under homomorphic encryption. The company’s joint research paper with Professor Miran Kim’s research team at Hanyang University has been accepted for presentation at ACM CCS 2025, one of the world’s premier peer-reviewed venues for computer and communication security research, alongside IEEE S&P and USENIX Security.
The research delivers two key results. First, the team ran a widely used open-source model under homomorphic encryption. They did so without retraining, replacing its computations with homomorphic encryption so inputs and outputs remained encrypted throughout inference.
Second, they achieved near practical runtime. Roughly two sentences of input (128 tokens) are answered on a single GPU at deployment-relevant speed. On core matrix multiplication, performance improved by 5.3x for plaintext to ciphertext operations and 9.7x for ciphertext to ciphertext operations, setting a new state of the art in the team’s evaluation setting. To the authors’ knowledge, THOR is the first framework to run an entire existing LLM under homomorphic encryption without retraining while still reaching near practical speed.
“This CCS acceptance recognizes a breakthrough in running large language models fully under homomorphic encryption, marking an important academic milestone in privacy-preserving AI research,” said Seungmyung Lee, CEO of DESILO. “It also highlights our dual focus: driving forward homomorphic encryption research with partners like Cornami, and accelerating product development to bring trusted Privacy AI into real-world applications.”
This innovation forms the technical foundation for upcoming DESILO solutions such as Harvest™, designed to enable secure, privacy-safe analysis across multiple institutions.
Exclusive Early Prime Big Deals Offerings Available Now
SAN FRANCISCO, Sept. 25, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — In a crowded market where many smart cleaning devices promise convenience but often fall short, YEEDI stands apart with its latest innovation: the S20 Infinity. Engineered for large homes, complex surfaces, and demanding messes, the S20 Infinity marries cutting-edge technology with unparalleled endurance — letting users reclaim their time and peace of mind.
YEEDI S20 Infinity
PowerBoost Charging: Designed to Solve Real User Frustrations
For many robot vacuum users, battery life and charging downtime remain the biggest frustrations. It’s common to find your cleaning interrupted halfway through a large home because the vacuum runs out of power. Long charging times mean you can’t simply run back-to-back cleaning sessions or trust your device to handle big jobs without supervision. Constantly having to monitor, schedule, or manually recharge the robot defeats the whole purpose of a “smart” cleaner — it should give you freedom, not more hassle.
YEEDI’s PowerBoost Charging is designed specifically to tackle these issues. This innovative system enables ultra-fast, in-use top-up charging that dramatically extends runtime without pausing the cleaning process.
Rapid top-ups on the fly: Just a 3-minute charge replenishes 6% of battery capacity, enough to maintain high suction and mopping power continuously.
Full recharge in under an hour: The S20 Infinity battery charges completely in less than 60 minutes — far faster than most competitors.
Exceptional cleaning coverage: Thanks to PowerBoost, the S20 Infinity cleans over 10,000 square feet per session without losing power or performance.
Smart power management: This technology eliminates the need to micromanage cleaning schedules or worry about battery interruptions, giving users a truly hands-off, worry-free experience.
In essence, PowerBoost Charging transforms how robot vacuums operate — turning battery life from a limiting factor into a seamless advantage.
PureCyclone Station: Bagless, Consistent, and Hassle-Free
The PureCyclone 2.0 vacuum station features a two-stage cyclonic airflow system, ensuring consistent suction strength with less than 1% loss at full capacity — a dramatic improvement over conventional systems that can lose over 60%. Its large 1.6L dustbin holds debris for over a month, eliminating the need for frequent emptying or messy bag replacements.
Advanced Cleaning Power: OZMO Roller 2.0 & BLAST Suction System
The OZMO Roller 2.0 delivers next-level mopping with a horizontally mounted roller that maximizes ground contact. It continuously cycles clean water while extracting dirty water, preventing smears even on stubborn spills. Operating at 200 RPM with 3800Pa suction, it easily handles dried stains and daily grime.
Paired with this is the BLAST (Boosted Large-Airflow Suction Technology) vacuum system. Featuring a 100W motor and optimized airflow, BLAST provides powerful yet quiet suction—ensuring deep cleaning without excessive noise.
YEEDI S20 Infinity
Intelligent Navigation for Complex Homes
Equipped with TruePass Adaptive 4WD Climbing and TruEdge 3.0 technology, the S20 Infinity navigates thresholds up to 2.4cm high and cleans edge-to-edge with precision. Whether moving across tiles, carpets, or around delicate molding, it delivers accurate, collision-free cleaning tailored to your home’s layout.
Fall into Savings: Early Prime Big Deals Day Promotions
As the fall season kicks in, YEEDI invites consumers to upgrade their home cleaning with exclusive savings during the Early Prime Big Deals Day, running from September 22 to October 8. Featured discounts include:
