A new chapter for Coinhako. Built in Singapore. Trusted by more than 480,000 users. For more than a decade, #Coinhako has built one of Southeast Asia's trusted and regulated digital asset platforms from Singapore — one of the world's leading financial centres and a frontrunner in digital asset regulation. Today, as part of SBI Group, we are entering our next chapter. By combining Coinhako's regional expertise, customer base and regulatory experience with SBI Group's financial services, technology and global network, we aim to expand global digital asset corridors originating from Japan and Southeast Asia. Our ambition is to support the next generation of digital financial infrastructure through responsible innovation, while continuing to explore opportunities across stablecoins, tokenisation, on-chain finance and cross-border financial services, in accordance with applicable laws and regulations. The next chapter begins.

JUST IN: 🇬🇧🇭🇰 London Metal Exchange to tokenize metals stored in Hong Kong into digital assets used for financing.

🇺🇸 Dollar-backed #stablecoins are increasingly becoming part of the discussion around the US dollar's global role, beyond their use in payments. Their potential to support US Treasury demand gives policymakers another reason to keep the conversation moving.

🇺🇸 HUGE: US Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent says America is "going to win" in crypto. "We are going to win in the digital asset stack," Bessent told Ripple's Swell conference. The Treasury Secretary thinks that will "continue to fortify the dollar." With over 90% of stablecoins backed by US dollars, he sees them as "an important source of funding for the Treasury." Bessent called Congress's failure to pass the CLARITY Act a disappointment, but says Treasury could work with the SEC and CFTC instead.

🇯🇵 BIG: BlackRock signs an MOU with SBI Holdings and Startale to explore linking tokenized money market funds with JPYSC, a yen-backed stablecoin, to push onchain finance in Japan.

"The crypto narrative is changing." 🔄 This cycle, the conversation is moving beyond spot trading towards stablecoin payments, tokenised assets, RWAs and the infrastructure connecting digital assets with traditional finance. For SBI Coinhako, this direction isn't new ↓ For years, we've been building regulated digital asset infrastructure in Singapore 🇸🇬 and connecting users and institutions to the digital asset economy. Becoming part of SBI Group strengthens that foundation. It gives us the opportunity to connect our Singapore presence with a broader financial ecosystem across liquidity, payments, banking and digital assets, while exploring what comes next: → Stablecoins and cross-border payment rails → Tokenised money market funds → Deeper institutional participation → Infrastructure that connects onchain markets with traditional finance The next chapter of digital assets may look less like a separate financial system, and increasingly like part of the financial system itself. That's the convergence we're building for. 🌐

Cool phone. But can it survive me refreshing my portfolio 10,000 times?

🏦 Corporate Bitcoin treasuries are back in focus. Tesla and SpaceX did not sell any Bitcoin in Q3. Based on their latest disclosed holdings, the two companies hold a combined 30,221 $BTC, worth around US$2.5 billion at quarter-end. 📊 Zooming out, public companies tracked by CoinGecko now hold around 1.3 million BTC, roughly 6.2% of Bitcoin's total supply. Strategy remains the largest corporate holder, while Metaplanet, Twenty One Capital, MARA and Strive also hold sizeable Bitcoin treasuries. What's becoming more interesting is how the conversation is evolving, from simply accumulating BTC to questions around capital allocation, liquidity, financing and how digital assets fit within broader corporate treasury strategies.

🔥 UPDATE: Elon Musk’s Tesla and SpaceX did not sell any Bitcoin in Q3, holding 30,221 $BTC worth $2.54 billion combined.

We were pleased to support Onchain Finance Connect, hosted by SBI Investment and @WebX_Asia during TOKEN2049 week in Singapore. Our Co-Founder & CEO, Yusho Liu, joined the panel, "From Tokenization to Adoption: The Next Chapter of On-Chain Finance," alongside leaders from DigiFT, Sygnum and Fasset. The discussion covered institutional adoption, stablecoins, tokenisation and the infrastructure needed to bring more of finance onchain. Great to exchange perspectives with partners and peers across the industry. We look forward to continuing the conversation. #SBICoinhako #OnchainFinance #DigitalAssets #TOKEN2049

Whales moving again 🐋 One to watch.

Glad to have contributed our perspective to ARC's 2026 APAC Crypto Infrastructure Map. As an active participant in Singapore's digital asset ecosystem, we're pleased to be part of these conversations and look forward to more exchanges with industry peers, media and partners across the region.

TOKEN2049 Singapore has wrapped up 🇸🇬 , but a few themes from the week are worth watching. 💳 Stablecoins are moving closer to payments. The conversation is increasingly extending beyond trading and liquidity towards payments, settlement and cross-border use cases. 🔗 Tokenisation is becoming an infrastructure conversation. As more traditional assets move onchain, the focus is shifting towards custody, liquidity, distribution and the infrastructure needed to support them. 🏦 Institutional adoption is becoming more practical. The question is increasingly not whether institutions will engage with digital assets, but what regulatory and operational frameworks are needed to support participation at scale. Different themes, but a common direction: digital assets are becoming more closely connected with the infrastructure of traditional finance. For SBI Coinhako, having spent years building across regulated digital asset infrastructure and institutional markets, it's a shift we're increasingly becoming part of. #TOKEN2049 #DigitalAssets #Stablecoins #Tokenisation
