4 min read

Hong Kong, 23rd January 2026, ZEX PR WIRE, ChainUp has been announced as a Secondary Exhibition Sponsor for the Hong Kong Web3 Festival 2026, set to take place from April 20 to 23, 2026, at the Hong Kong Convention and Exhibition Centre. The partnership underscores ChainUp’s commitment to supporting Asia’s premier crypto gathering and advancing institutional adoption of digital asset infrastructure across the region.

ChainUp is a leading global provider of digital asset solutions that empowers businesses to navigate the complexities of the evolving Web3 ecosystem. Founded in 2017 and headquartered in Singapore since 2019, ChainUp has grown into a trusted technology partner serving a diverse clientele—from blockchain-native Web3 companies to established financial institutions looking to integrate digital assets into their operations.

Comprehensive Infrastructure for Digital Assets

What sets ChainUp apart is its comprehensive suite of B2B solutions covering virtually every aspect of digital asset infrastructure. The company offers crypto exchange solutions for both centralized (CEX) and decentralized (DEX) platforms, liquidity-as-a-service to ensure smooth trading operations, and institutional-grade custody services for secure asset storage.

ChainUp’s MPC (Multi-Party Computation) wallet-as-a-service provides businesses with regulation-ready features, scalability for large user bases, and the ability to safely engage with DeFi protocols for yield generation. The platform employs enhanced governance controls that allow institutions to confidently manage digital assets while maintaining compliance with evolving regulatory frameworks.

The company’s KYT (Know Your Transaction) crypto tracing analytics tool offers AI-powered monitoring for risk control and anti-money laundering compliance—a critical capability as regulators worldwide impose stricter oversight on digital asset flows. In fact, ChainUp was recently named Transaction Monitoring Solution Provider of the Year, recognizing the effectiveness of its compliance infrastructure.

Beyond trading and custody, ChainUp offers asset tokenization services that enable the conversion of real-world assets into blockchain-based tokens, crypto asset management solutions regulated by the Monetary Authority of Singapore, and Web3 infrastructure including mining, staking, Bitcoin restaking, and blockchain APIs. The breadth of these offerings positions ChainUp as a one-stop-shop for institutions seeking to build or expand their digital asset capabilities.

Industry Recognition and Track Record

ChainUp’s technical reliability and institutional focus have earned significant industry recognition. The company was named Best Technology Solution Provider for Digital Assets APAC at the Digital Assets Awards 2025 by The Digital Banker, reflecting the accelerating market shift in Asia-Pacific from speculative innovation to a core pillar of institutional finance.

More recently, ChainUp was recognized among Singapore’s Top Fintech Companies 2026 in an inaugural ranking by Tech in Asia and Statista, which analyzed over 500 firms to identify innovators truly changing how finance works. The company also achieved SOC 2 Type 2 compliance through a rigorous independent audit by Deloitte, validating the effectiveness of its controls for security, availability, processing integrity, confidentiality, and privacy.

Since its founding, ChainUp has served more than 1,000 clients across 30 countries, reaching over 60 million end-users. The company maintains offices around the world and has achieved five internationally recognized security accreditations, demonstrating its commitment to safeguarding client assets in an industry where security breaches can be catastrophic.

Notably, ChainUp’s leadership includes Mr. Ooi as Chairman and Non-Executive Director—the former Chairman of the Board of Directors of OCBC Bank, Singapore, who also served as a Special Advisor to Bank Negara Malaysia and previously as Deputy Governor. This traditional finance pedigree brings credibility and regulatory expertise to ChainUp’s digital asset operations.

Fed Decides On Interest Rates Today—Here’s What To Watch For

Fed Decides On Interest Rates Today—Here’s What To Watch For

The post Fed Decides On Interest Rates Today—Here’s What To Watch For appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Topline The Federal Reserve on Wednesday will conclude a two-day policymaking meeting and release a decision on whether to lower interest rates—following months of pressure and criticism from President Donald Trump—and potentially signal whether additional cuts are on the way. President Donald Trump has urged the central bank to “CUT INTEREST RATES, NOW, AND BIGGER” than they might plan to. Getty Images Key Facts The central bank is poised to cut interest rates by at least a quarter-point, down from the 4.25% to 4.5% range where they have been held since December to between 4% and 4.25%, as Wall Street has placed 100% odds of a rate cut, according to CME’s FedWatch, with higher odds (94%) on a quarter-point cut than a half-point (6%) reduction. Fed governors Christopher Waller and Michelle Bowman, both Trump appointees, voted in July for a quarter-point reduction to rates, and they may dissent again in favor of a large cut alongside Stephen Miran, Trump’s Council of Economic Advisers’ chair, who was sworn in at the meeting’s start on Tuesday. It’s unclear whether other policymakers, including Kansas City Fed President Jeffrey Schmid and St. Louis Fed President Alberto Musalem, will favor larger cuts or opt for no reduction. Fed Chair Jerome Powell said in his Jackson Hole, Wyoming, address last month the central bank would likely consider a looser monetary policy, noting the “shifting balance of risks” on the U.S. economy “may warrant adjusting our policy stance.” David Mericle, an economist for Goldman Sachs, wrote in a note the “key question” for the Fed’s meeting is whether policymakers signal “this is likely the first in a series of consecutive cuts” as the central bank is anticipated to “acknowledge the softening in the labor market,” though they may not “nod to an October cut.” Mericle said he…

Wormhole launches reserve tying protocol revenue to token

Wormhole launches reserve tying protocol revenue to token

The post Wormhole launches reserve tying protocol revenue to token appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Wormhole is changing how its W token works by creating a new reserve designed to hold value for the long term. Announced on Wednesday, the Wormhole Reserve will collect onchain and offchain revenues and other value generated across the protocol and its applications (including Portal) and accumulate them into W, locking the tokens within the reserve. The reserve is part of a broader update called W 2.0. Other changes include a 4% targeted base yield for tokenholders who stake and take part in governance. While staking rewards will vary, Wormhole said active users of ecosystem apps can earn boosted yields through features like Portal Earn. The team stressed that no new tokens are being minted; rewards come from existing supply and protocol revenues, keeping the cap fixed at 10 billion. Wormhole is also overhauling its token release schedule. Instead of releasing large amounts of W at once under the old “cliff” model, the network will shift to steady, bi-weekly unlocks starting October 3, 2025. The aim is to avoid sharp periods of selling pressure and create a more predictable environment for investors. Lockups for some groups, including validators and investors, will extend an additional six months, until October 2028. Core contributor tokens remain under longer contractual time locks. Wormhole launched in 2020 as a cross-chain bridge and now connects more than 40 blockchains. The W token powers governance and staking, with a capped supply of 10 billion. By redirecting fees and revenues into the new reserve, Wormhole is betting that its token can maintain value as demand for moving assets and data between chains grows. This is a developing story.
