In a world where more assets are getting tokenized, and continue to move on-chain, August provides the most capital-efficient infrastructure for trade execution, maximizing liquidity and capital optimization.

August facilitates over $7 billion in monthly transaction volume across lending, DeFi and OTC transactions, and algorithmic swaps with $400M+ in loans originated over the past year. The company rebranded to underscore its commitment to building trusted financial infrastructure for a crypto industry recovering after the collapse of centralized finance (CeFi). August provides institutions, protocols, and trading desks with a comprehensive suite of on-chain financial tools, including: smart contract multi-signature accounts, trade execution, borrowing and lending, options and structured products, tri-party collateral management, cross-margining and cross-chain DeFi strategies. Clients supported today include both institutional hedge funds and principal trading firms, as well as protocols such as Upshift, the first decentralized application built on August, with total value locked (TVL) around $300M.

“The events of 2022 following the collapse of large centralized finance counterparties, more liquidity and volume has moved on-chain over the past two years, demonstrating that transparency and risk management are non-negotiable,” said Aya Kantorovich, Co-Founder and Co-CEO of August. “August is setting a new standard for capital-efficient and institutionally viable digital asset trading, where trust is no longer assumed—it’s built into the infrastructure itself.”, said Alexandre Elkrief, Co-Founder and Co-CEO of August.

By bringing on-chain verifiability to these services, August eliminates the hidden risks that have plagued CeFi. With August, credit and counterparty risk can be monitored and mitigated in real-time.

“FTX and 3AC didn’t fail due to a lack of institutional interest in digital assets,” said Rob Hadick, General Partner at Dragonfly Capital. “They failed because risk was obfuscated, and counterparty exposure was unmanageable. August provides real-time risk measurement, programmatic collateral management, and default transparency.”

“We are thrilled to double down on August, the leader in On-chain Capital Markets. August combines the speed and composability of DeFi with the risk management tools required by the world’s largest institutions. Now these benefits will be available to the public via Upshift. The future of finance is now,” adds Carl Vogel, General Partner at 6th Man Ventures.

World’s First Large-Scale, Multicenter Prospective Study in Single-Reading Mammography Confirms Lunit AI Boosts Cancer Detection

Prospective study finds Lunit AI increases cancer detection by 13.8% in single-reader settings without raising recall rates, presenting a game-changing tool for countries relying on single-reader mammography screening

SEOUL, South Korea, March 10, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — Lunit (KRX:328130.KQ), a leading provider of AI-powered solutions for cancer diagnostics and therapeutics, today announced the publication of a groundbreaking prospective study in Nature Communications validating the real-world effectiveness of AI-powered mammography screening in South Korea’s national breast cancer screening program. Conducted as the world’s first large-scale, multicenter prospective study in a single-reading setting, the research underscores how AI-assisted mammography interpretation significantly improves breast cancer detection rates without increasing recall rates.

Lunit's AI-powered mammography analysis solution, Lunit INSIGHT MMG
Lunit’s AI-powered mammography analysis solution, Lunit INSIGHT MMG

The study was led by Professor Yun-Woo Chang from Soonchunhyang University Seoul Hospital, in collaboration with both breast and general radiologists from six leading academic hospitals in South Korea. The study analyzed 24,543 women aged 40 and above who underwent routine biennial mammography (2D full-field digital mammogram) between February 2021 and December 2022 as part of Korea’s national breast cancer screening program.

The study compared the performance of breast radiologists interpreting screening mammograms with and without Lunit’s AI-based computer-aided detection, Lunit INSIGHT MMG. The results revealed that AI-assisted breast radiologists detected 13.8% more screen-detected breast cancers than those relying solely on conventional interpretation methods, or without AI assistance. The cancer detection rate (CDR) increased from 5.01 (per 1,000) to 5.70 with AI assistance, while recall rates (RRs) remained statistically unchanged, ensuring improved clinical effectiveness and minimizing unnecessary additional recalls. Moreover, AI assistance led to a significant improvement in detecting small-sized tumors and node-negative cancers, key indicators of improved early detection.

Additionally, the study evaluated Lunit INSIGHT MMG’s impact on general radiologists who do not specialize in breast imaging through a simulated retrospective study. The results demonstrated that AI assistance led to an even greater improvement in CDRs for general radiologists, with an increase of 26.4% (3.87 to 4.89 per 1,000), underscoring AI’s potential to support radiologists with varying levels of expertise.

“This prospective study offers compelling real-world evidence that AI can improve early cancer detection while maintaining effectiveness and reducing unnecessary patient anxiety caused by false positives in a single-reading setting,” said Professor Chang, the lead and corresponding author of the study.

A Proven Solution for Single and Double-Reading Screening Systems

The publication further builds upon Lunit INSIGHT MMG’s well-established track record in improving breast cancer detection. In Sweden, Capio St. Göran Hospital conducted a prospective clinical trial to assess Lunit AI’s effectiveness in breast cancer screening when replacing one reader within a double-reading setting. Following positive trial results, Capio St. Göran Hospital became the world’s first to replace one of two radiologists in its double-reading workflow with AI, marking a paradigm shift in breast cancer screening.

“This latest prospective study in South Korea further solidifies Lunit INSIGHT MMG’s potential as an indispensable tool in breast cancer screening,” said Brandon Suh, CEO of Lunit. “Whether in a single-reader or double-reader setting, AI can serve as a powerful force multiplier, assisting radiologists in detecting cancer earlier and more accurately.”

Shaping the Future of National Breast Cancer Screening Programs

With mounting evidence supporting AI’s role in breast cancer screening, Lunit is driving its global adoption. Lunit INSIGHT MMG has already been deployed in national breast screening programs in Australia, Sweden, Iceland, Singapore, Saudi Arabia, and Qatar, helping healthcare systems enhance efficiency and optimize diagnostic accuracy.

The study’s findings are expected to influence global breast cancer screening protocols, particularly in countries where single-reading mammography interpretation is widely practiced. By demonstrating AI’s ability to enhance radiologists’ accuracy without increasing RRs, the study provides critical data supporting AI’s role in optimizing cancer detection while reducing the workload burden on radiologists. This is particularly relevant as many countries face a shortage of specialized breast imaging professionals, making AI an important tool to improve efficiency and maintain high diagnostic standards.

“As AI adoption accelerates, we remain committed to driving innovation and making AI-powered cancer screening the new standard of care,” added Suh. “By working closely with healthcare providers worldwide, we aim to ensure that AI benefits as many patients as possible.”

The Apple Watch strap GEMINI takes unshakable security to the next level. The first of SKINARMA’s catalog to feature a magnetic band and locking pin mechanism, it is created for action and locked in for performance.

The strap includes a protruding tab that securely tucks into the groove, eliminating the need for a traditional buckle, which is prone to give way.

Syncing up with the sweet spot between Valentine’s and White Day, the GEMINI x ATOM collection unabashedly offers styles for both partners—even if they are opposites. Numerous colorways are available to match the moment, including Pink and Mauve, Black and Purple, and Mint and Orange for the 42mm straps and cases.

For those with 46mm straps, the options expand even further, offering more variety between cases and straps. Choose from straps like Orange and Black, Blue and Black, Navy and Blue, Chalk and Black, and more, paired with cases in Navy and Black or Orange and Black.

A glow-in-the-dark version, created for both 42mm and 46mm, adds whimsy to urban style while providing visibility in low-light settings.

Mix and match within your own collection, or coordinate with your other half for a perfectly paired look.

SKINARMA’s latest release puts a futuristic spin on classic cosmic aesthetics.
