VALYGO Launches Integrated Platform Bridging Crypto, Fiat, and Global Payments

BASSETERRE, KN – 10/03/2026 – (SeaPRwire) – As digital assets, traditional banking services, and global payment networks continue to evolve independently, individuals and businesses that operate internationally often face a fragmented financial landscape. Addressing this challenge, the VALYGO platform has officially launched, introducing a unified financial environment designed to consolidate multiple financial functions into a single operational framework. Modern financial activity frequently requires users to rely on separate systems for cryptocurrency management, fiat transactions, payment processing, and cross-border transfers. This fragmentation can slow financial operations, create administrative complexity, and increase operational friction for professionals and companies conducting business across multiple jurisdictions. VALYGO enters this space with the goal of simplifying financial workflows by bringing these capabilities together within one structured platform. A Platform Designed Around Real Financial Workflows Rather than focusing on a single financial service, VALYGO has been designed around the way individuals and businesses interact with money in real-world scenarios. The platform enables users to operate within a connected account environment where several financial functions can coexist and interact. Through the platform, users are able to manage digital assets alongside supported fiat services, conduct card-based transactions both online and at physical merchants, and execute cross-border transfers without relying on multiple external systems. In addition, supported ATM access provides another method for interacting with funds. By integrating these services into one platform environment, VALYGO aims to reduce the need for users to shift between different tools and platforms, helping create greater continuity in everyday financial activity. Supporting Cross-Border Financial Participants The platform has been developed with internationally active users in mind. Freelancers who invoice clients abroad, remote professionals earning income from multiple regions, and businesses maintaining relationships with clients across different countries often require financial infrastructure capable of supporting complex payment flows. VALYGO’s structure seeks to address these needs by providing an operational environment where payments, asset management, and account access can function within a single system. Individuals who frequently interact with both cryptocurrency and traditional financial services may also find value in the platform’s integrated structure. Flexible Account Models for Different Operational Needs Recognizing that users operate at varying scales, VALYGO offers multiple account tiers designed to accommodate different levels of financial activity. This structured approach allows participants to select an account model aligned with their operational requirements. Entry-level access is available for users with more basic needs, while higher-tier accounts provide expanded functionality and may involve participation through the VYO ecosystem component. By offering tiered access, the platform seeks to provide scalability without imposing identical requirements on all participants. VYO Utility Within the Platform Ecosystem Within the VALYGO ecosystem, VYO functions as a utility component connected to platform participation. Its use cases include enabling access to certain account tiers, supporting staking participation, and linking token utility with platform functionality. Rather than existing independently from the platform environment, VYO is designed to operate as part of the broader ecosystem infrastructure, aligning user participation with the system’s operational structure. Transitioning from Development to Active Use With the platform now live, users are able to engage with VALYGO under real operating conditions. The launch represents the transition from development and system design to practical usage. While future updates and improvements may continue as the platform evolves, the current release establishes the foundation for users to interact with a financial environment that brings together digital assets, payment tools, and supported fiat services within a single operational framework. A Unified Operational Layer for Modern Finance VALYGO does not position itself as a traditional bank replacement, a trading platform, or solely a cryptocurrency wallet. Instead, it presents itself as an integrated operational layer intended to connect several financial functions—ranging from crypto access and supported fiat services to payment infrastructure and account management—within one unified environment.

Virgin Hotels Las Vegas kasino pemain menang dua jackpot, permainan yang sama

(AsiaGameHub) - Apabila kebanyakan orang melawat sebuah kasino Las Vegas, harapan tertinggi mereka hanyalah untuk berseronok dan menikmati minuman percuma. Walau bagaimanapun, seorang pemain benar-benar bernasib baik dengan memenangi dua jackpot Rabu lalu, semasa bermain permainan yang sama. Semasa menikmati sesi permainan di mesin slot Mo Mo Mummy di Virgin Hotels Las Vegas casino, pemain yang tidak dikenali itu meraih $21,150 daripada pertaruhan $2.50. Walaupun kebanyakan orang akan menasihati anda untuk berhenti selepas kemenangan baik, supaya anda tidak akhirnya cuba memenangi lebih banyak sementara kehilangan apa yang telah dimenangi, adalah satu perkara yang baik bahawa pemain itu meneruskan untuk seketika. Secara tiba-tiba, pemain itu akhirnya meraih satu lagi jackpot – kali ini bernilai $34,000 selepas satu lagi jackpot jatuh pada mesin yang sama semasa sesi yang sama. Jumlah wang yang dimenangi mencecah $55,150, dengan pemain itu akhirnya membuat keputusan bahawa dia sudah puas dan beredar dari permainan dengan apa yang jelas merupakan salah satu kisah jackpot terbaik untuk dikongsi.

$15 juta dalam satu siaran perjudian: Pendapatan XQC yang Mengelilingi Kepala

(AsiaGameHub) - Pada awal bulan ini, kami memberitahu anda bahawa xQc memperoleh $200,000 untuk setiap siaran langsung yang ditaja oleh Stake, maklumat yang dikongsi sendiri oleh individu berusia 30 tahun dari Kanada itu semasa siaran langsung bersama pencipta kandungan lain, StableRonaldo. Kini, individu yang berasal dari Quebec yang asalnya dikenali sebagai pemain profesional Overwatch bahagian tank itu membuat pendedahan baharu mengenai betapa menguntungkannya kerjaya penstriman langsungnya selama ini. Dalam Satu Siaran Langsung: $57,000 daripada Iklan, $15 Juta daripada Tajaan xQc baru-baru ini berkongsi bahawa jumlah tertinggi yang pernah diperolehnya daripada iklan semasa satu siaran langsung ialah $57,000. Namun, jumlah yang mengagumkan itu tidak setanding dengan apa yang diperolehnya daripada siaran langsung perjudiannya. xQc mendedahkan bahawa satu siaran langsung perjudian sahaja membawa masuk kira-kira $15 juta, sekali lagi membuktikan betapa banyak hasil yang boleh dijana oleh penstrim terkenal dalam sudut-sudut khusus platform tersebut. Selain pendapatan iklan, xQc telah memperoleh wang yang signifikan melalui tajaan. Beliau mendedahkan bahawa perjanjian terbesarnya datang daripada Call of Duty Warzone, yang membayarnya yuran tetap sekitar $1 juta. Perjanjian itu asalnya memerlukan beliau untuk menstrim permainan itu beberapa kali sepanjang dua minggu, tetapi xQc berjaya menyelesaikannya dalam satu sesi maraton selama 12 jam. 1.3 Juta Pertaruhan dengan Kadar Kemenangan 10% Siaran langsung perjudian nampaknya sangat menguntungkan baginya. Pada Jun 2025, xQc mendedahkan bahawa beliau telah meletakkan sejumlah $3.6 bilion dalam pertaruhan merentasi lebih daripada 1.3 juta pertaruhan, memenangi kira-kira 10% daripada masa. Kekayaannya semakin bertambah dengan perjanjian platform yang lumayan. Tiga tahun lalu, beliau menandatangani perjanjian penstriman dengan Kick yang dilaporkan bernilai sehingga $100 juta sepanjang dua tahun, satu angka yang setanding dengan kontrak utama dalam sukan profesional, seperti perjanjian LeBron James dengan Los Angeles Lakers. Sama ada melalui tajaan, perjudian, atau pendapatan iklan, xQc telah menjelaskan bahawa penstriman boleh menjadi sangat menguntungkan di peringkat tertinggi. Walaupun melibatkan kemenangan besar, rakan penstrim perjudian, Trainwreck, baru-baru ini bercakap tentang kemungkinan kembali ke siaran langsung perjudian biasa. Pemain itu, yang menurut laporan Bloomberg, menerima sehingga $1 juta sebulan untuk menstrim kandungan crypto-casino, juga membincangkan hubungannya dengan Stake dan kepimpinannya, menunjukkan bahawa sesetengah pencipta kandungan yang mempromosikan platform perjudian tidak menerima tahap pampasan yang sepatutnya kerana perjanjian yang dinilai rendah. Penstrim itu memberi isyarat bahawa keadaan mungkin mencapai titik perubahan, dengan pencipta kandungan memutuskan untuk membina platform mereka sendiri daripada terus bergantung pada platform perjudian yang sedia ada.

Clockwork.io Launches TorchPass Workload Fault Tolerance to Improve Reliability in Large-Scale AI Training SeaPRwire

Clockwork.io Launches TorchPass Workload Fault Tolerance to Improve Reliability in Large-Scale AI Training

PALO ALTO, CA – 14/03/2026 – (SeaPRwire) – Clockwork.io has announced the general availability of TorchPass Workload Fault Tolerance, a new capability designed to improve resilience in large-scale artificial intelligence training environments. The software-based solution aims to reduce the operational disruption and financial losses associated with infrastructure failures in distributed GPU clusters. TorchPass is delivered as a core feature within the Clockwork.io FleetIQ platform. The technology applies the company’s Software-Driven AI Fabrics architecture to distributed training workloads, enabling systems to continue operating even when GPU hardware, network links, or cluster nodes encounter failures. By leveraging Live GPU Migration, the platform can transparently shift active training workloads to available resources without requiring job restarts or checkpoint recovery. According to Suresh Vasudevan, the cost of infrastructure interruptions has become a growing challenge for organizations investing heavily in AI computing resources. “Companies are investing billions in next-generation accelerators, yet distributed AI workloads still lose significant productivity due to avoidable infrastructure faults,” Vasudevan said. “TorchPass was designed to address that gap by allowing training workloads to continue operating through failures rather than forcing expensive restarts.” Industry observers have also noted that reliability becomes increasingly difficult as AI clusters scale. Dylan Patel said that maintaining continuity across large GPU deployments is becoming critical as new hardware architectures increase cluster density. “As systems scale to larger compute domains, even minor errors—such as a single GPU failure or a network disruption—can terminate an entire training run,” Patel said. “Technologies like TorchPass help maintain utilization by enabling transparent failover and live workload migration.” Addressing Reliability Challenges in Distributed AI Training Distributed AI training is widely recognized as one of the most complex and failure-prone workloads in modern computing infrastructure. Research conducted by Meta FAIR indicates that the mean time to failure decreases sharply as cluster sizes increase. In clusters with more than a thousand GPUs, interruptions can occur within hours, frequently forcing jobs to restart from checkpoints. These interruptions often result in lost compute time and reduced GPU utilization. When failures occur, training systems typically roll back to the latest saved checkpoint, discarding recent progress and requiring additional time to restore workloads. TorchPass is designed to mitigate these inefficiencies by addressing faults proactively and maintaining workload continuity. By reducing restart events and preserving training progress, the system aims to improve cluster utilization and reduce operational overhead for enterprises and AI cloud providers. Live GPU Migration Enables Continuous Training The key mechanism behind TorchPass is Live GPU Migration, which enables affected training processes to move dynamically to spare resources within the cluster when faults occur. The migration process typically completes in approximately three minutes while the overall training workload continues to operate. TorchPass supports three primary resilience scenarios: Unplanned migration, which responds to unexpected failures such as GPU faults, kernel crashes, or power disruptions Pre-emptive migration, triggered by early warning signals including thermal anomalies or ECC memory errors Planned migration, allowing infrastructure maintenance or workload balancing without interrupting training operations According to the company, this approach can reduce wasted training progress by up to 95 percent in certain environments. Independent Testing Highlights Performance Benefits Independent benchmarking conducted by Jordan Nanos evaluated TorchPass in large-scale training scenarios. Testing involved a GPT-scale training workload using a Kubernetes-based cluster equipped with 64 H200 GPUs. The evaluation measured job completion time and model FLOPs utilization against both traditional checkpoint-restart methods and the open-source fault-tolerance framework TorchFT. The results indicated that TorchPass achieved faster recovery after simulated hardware failures while maintaining higher GPU utilization rates. The benchmark also suggested that by improving fault tolerance, organizations may be able to reduce checkpoint frequency in training pipelines. This can enable larger batch sizes, lower memory pressure, and simplified storage management. Financial Impact for Large AI Clusters For operators managing large GPU deployments, improved reliability can translate into significant cost savings. Clockwork.io estimates that in a typical deployment using 2,048 H200 GPUs, TorchPass could recover more than $6 million in annual compute value by preventing wasted GPU hours caused by restart-driven downtime. These savings primarily result from avoiding repeated training interruptions and eliminating idle recovery periods. By maintaining continuous training progress, organizations may also accelerate the time required to complete large model training runs. Supporting Next-Generation AI Infrastructure Clockwork.io positions TorchPass as part of a broader effort to make reliability a software-defined capability within AI infrastructure. This approach is designed to support emerging high-density systems, including architectures built around GPUs such as the NVIDIA GB200 NVL72 and NVIDIA GB300 NVL72. TorchPass expands on the company’s earlier Network Fault Tolerance capabilities, which address network-level disruptions by rerouting traffic around failing links. Together, these technologies form the foundation of Clockwork.io’s Software-Driven AI Fabric, a vendor-neutral software layer designed to coordinate compute, network, and storage resources across large AI clusters. The goal is to enable operators to run heterogeneous infrastructure as a unified system while maintaining predictable performance and high utilization. Clockwork.io will present TorchPass during the upcoming NVIDIA GTC conference from March 16 to 19. About Clockwork.io Clockwork.io develops Software-Driven AI Fabrics, a programmable software layer designed to improve observability, determinism, and fault tolerance in large-scale AI clusters. Its FleetIQ platform enables enterprises to train and operate complex AI workloads while maintaining high infrastructure utilization. Organizations including Uber, Wells Fargo, Nebius, and Nscale use Clockwork.io technologies to support AI infrastructure operations.

Perbahasan Pertaruhan Sukan AS: Cukai 10% Akan Menjana Hasil Sebanyak $182B iGame

Perbahasan Pertaruhan Sukan AS: Cukai 10% Akan Menjana Hasil Sebanyak $182B

(AsiaGameHub) - Pertaruhan sukan di Amerika Syarikat telah mengalami pembaharuan dalam beberapa tahun kebelakangan ini, lebih tepat lagi, sejak Mahkamah Agung membuka jalan bagi negeri-negeri untuk menghalalkannya pada 2018. Industri yang pada mulanya bermula pada $7 bilion secara beransur-ansur berkembang kepada $167 bilion yang mengejutkan pada tahun lepas, sebahagian besarnya didorong oleh aplikasi mudah alih, yang tidak lagi mengehadkan pertaruhan kepada kasino atau buku sukan. Hari ini, hampir setiap pertaruhan diletakkan secara dalam talian, menjadikannya lebih mudah dan cepat untuk orang ramai mengambil bahagian. Negeri-negeri yang kini membenarkan pertaruhan sukan telah menyaksikan faedah kewangan yang jelas, dengan hasil cukai, yang digunakan sebagai sokongan belanjawan awam yang kukuh, meningkat secara berterusan. Pada masa yang sama, kerajaan persekutuan hanya mengutip sebahagian kecil, dengan cukai 0.25% yang telah lama dikenakan ke atas setiap pertaruhan. Kadar ini tidak berubah selama beberapa dekad, dengan perbincangan yang semakin meningkat di Washington sama ada ini perlu diubah. Cukai 5% Akan Menjana $100 Bilion Dalam Tempoh 10 Tahun Beberapa penganalisis mencadangkan cukai perlu dinaikkan kepada 5%, yang menurut anggaran terkini, akan membawa masuk hampir $100 bilion dalam dekad akan datang. Kadar yang lebih tinggi, seperti 10%, boleh menjana sehingga $182 bilion dari TK2027-2036, sambil mengurangkan bilangan pertaruhan yang diletakkan sebanyak 10%. Hasil ini akan mencukupi untuk menjadikan cukai pertaruhan sukan sebagai cukai eksais persekutuan kedua terbesar, di belakang cukai gas. Cadangan Cukai Tetap Dolar Selain pilihan cukai 5% atau 10%, Budget Lab “juga memodelkan cukai dolar tetap yang lebih sederhana ke atas pertaruhan sukan: $0.05 setiap transaksi.” Model yang berkaitan mendakwa ia akan “menjana jumlah hasil yang jauh lebih kecil, hanya $1.3 bilion dari TK2027-2036, berbanding cukai ad valorem 5%, tetapi dalam jangka panjang kesannya boleh menjadi lebih besar dengan mengurangkan bilangan pertaruhan.” Sementara itu, penyokong mengatakan pertaruhan sukan harus diperlakukan seperti aktiviti bercukai lain, seperti penjualan alkohol atau tembakau, dengan tahap yang lebih tinggi membawa masuk hasil yang signifikan dan mungkin melambatkan perjudian berlebihan. Terdapat juga kebimbangan mengenai kesan yang lebih luas daripada pertaruhan, termasuk tekanan kewangan bagi sesetengah pengguna dan peningkatan kehadiran perjudian dalam budaya sukan. Walau bagaimanapun, pengkritik memberi amaran bahawa cukai yang lebih tinggi boleh mendorong orang ramai ke arah pasaran yang tidak terkawal. Laman web luar pesisir dan rangkaian pertaruhan tidak formal sudah wujud, dan peraturan yang lebih ketat boleh menjadikannya lebih menarik. Terdapat juga kebimbangan daripada negeri-negeri yang bergantung kepada hasil pertaruhan, kerana penurunan aktiviti boleh menjejaskan pendapatan mereka. Satu lagi perubahan baru-baru ini telah menarik perhatian para petaruh. Bermula pada tahun 2026, penjudi tidak lagi boleh mengimbangi sepenuhnya kerugian mereka terhadap kemenangan mereka apabila mengira cukai. Ini bermakna sesetengah orang mungkin berhutang cukai walaupun mereka mencapai titik pulang modal secara keseluruhan. Buat masa ini, penggubal undang-undang sedang mempertimbangkan pilihan mereka. Industri pertaruhan sukan terus berkembang, tetapi persoalannya ialah bagaimana ia harus dicukai dan dikawal selia pada tahun-tahun akan datang.

Nevada Hentikan Aktiviti Kalshi dalam Langkah Mahkamah Bersejarah iGame

Nevada Hentikan Aktiviti Kalshi dalam Langkah Mahkamah Bersejarah

(AsiaGameHub) - Mahkamah Nevada telah memerintahkan platform ramalan dalam talian Kalshi untuk menangguhkan aktivitivitinya di negeri itu sekurang-kurangnya dua minggu, menandakan peningkatan besar dalam pertelingkahan yang semakin meningkat antara pengawal selia dan pengendali pasaran ramalan di Amerika Syarikat. Mahkamah Nevada Menghalang Kalshi Dalam Perintah Penghalangan Sementara 14 Hari Keputusan yang dikeluarkan oleh Mahkamah Daerah Kehakiman Pertama di Carson City, mengenakan perintah penghalangan sementara 14 hari yang menghalang syarikat itu daripada menawarkan kontrak yang berkaitan dengan sukan, pilihan raya, atau acara hiburan tanpa kebenaran negeri yang sesuai. Keputusan itu merupakan insiden pertama di mana negeri AS telah memaksa Kalshi untuk menghentikan operasi, walaupun hanya untuk tempoh yang singkat. Kes ini berpunca daripada pertikaian berpanjangan yang bermula pada awal 2025 apabila pengawal selia perjudian Nevada menuntut platform itu berhenti menawarkan kontrak berasaskan acara. Pihak berkuasa berhujah bahawa produk ini mirip dengan pertaruhan tradisional dan harus berada di bawah undang-undang perjudian negeri yang ketat. Kalshi menegaskan bahawa penawaranannya adalah alatan kewangan yang di kawal pada peringkat persekutuan. Dokumen mahkamah menunjukkan bahawa hakim mendapati Nevada pengawal selia berkemungkinan berjaya dalam cabaran undang-undang yang lebih luas mereka. Perintah itu menyerlahkan bahawa negeri itu menjalankan peraturan komprehensif ke atas aktiviti perjudian dan memerlukan semua pengendali untuk mendapatkan lesen. Ia mencatat bahawa model Kalshi, di mana pengguna memasang wang pada hasil yang tidak pasti, dan syarikat mengambil komisen, boleh sesuai dengan definisi undang-undang bagi sistem pertaruhan di bawah undang-undang negeri. Perintah Sementara Menentang Kalshi Menyoroti Ketegangan Antara Peraturan Perjudian dan Kewangan Mahkamah selanjutnya menyimpulkan bahawa membenarkan syarikat itu terus beroperasi boleh menghancurkan rangka kerja pengawalseliaan Nevada. Kekhawatiran termasuk ketidakupayaan untuk memantau peserta, menghalang penyertaan di bawah umur, atau memastikan integriti acara yang berkaitan dengan kontrak. Hakim menentukan bahawa risiko seperti itu boleh menyebabkan kemudaratan yang sukar untuk diterbalikkan, yang membuktikan tindakan segera adalah wajar. Oleh kerana perintah penghalangan sementara di Nevada tidak boleh dirayu, Kalshi mesti mematuhi penutupan sementara kes ini diteruskan. Sidang susulan dijadualkan untuk awal April, di mana mahkamah akan mempertimbangkan sama ada untuk memanjangkan sekatan untuk tempoh yang lebih lama. Keputusan ini dibuat di tengah-tengah tekanan undang-undang yang semakin meningkat ke atas syarikat itu di seluruh beberapa negeri. Pengawal selia di seluruh negara sedang memeriksa pasaran ramalan dan berhujah bahawa mereka mengelak peraturan perjudian yang telah étab. Pada masa yang sama, pihak berkuasa persekutuan telah memberikan isyarat sokongan untuk menganggap platform ini sebagai sebahagian daripada pasaran derivatif dan mewujudkan persekitaran undang-undang yang kompleks. Hasil kes Nevada boleh mempunyai implikasi yang lebih luas untuk masa depanpasaran ramalan di AS kerana mahkamah terus menimbang sama ada platform ini tergolong di bawah peraturan kewangan atau undang-undang perjudian.

Valve Berdepan Gufisan atas Klaim Sistem Judi Loot Box iGame

Valve Berdepan Gufisan atas Klaim Sistem Judi Loot Box

(AsiaGameHub) - Satu cabaran undang-undang baharu telah dibawa terhadap Valve, dengan plaintif menuduh firma permainan ini mengendalikan mekanik yang sangat menyerupai amalan perjudian. Aduan ini, yang difailkan di mahkamah persekutuan di negeri Washington, menyasarkan penggunaan "loot box" berbayar oleh syarikat itu di beberapa tajuk permainan paling popularnya. Loot Box Counter-Strike Dituduh Meniru Perjudian Di tengah kes ini adalah Counter-Strike, di mana pemain boleh membeli kunci maya — biasanya berharga $2.49 — untuk membuka bekas digital yang mengandungi item dalam permainan rawak. Menurut pemfailan, kebanyakan ganjaran ini mempunyai nilai yang lebih rendah daripada harga yang dibayar untuk mengaksesnya, lapor The Seattle Times. Wakil undang-undang plaintif berhujah bahawa majoriti besar hasil tidak menjustifikasikan kos, dengan anggaran menunjukkan hanya sebahagian kecil item memberikan pulangan yang ketara. Bagaimanapun, kemungkinan mendapatkan item jarang dan sangat bernilai, kadangkala bernilai ratusan malah ribuan dolar, telah ditekankan sebagai pemacu utama di sebalik pembelian berulang. Peguam mendakwa dinamik ini menggalakkan perbelanjaan berterusan, kerana pemain tertarik dengan peluang mendapatkan ganjaran bernilai tinggi walaupun dengan peluang yang tidak menguntungkan. Tuntutan undang-undang ini juga menimbulkan kebimbangan tentang cara ciri-ciri ini dipersembahkan. Ia mendakwa bahawa reka bentuk visual dan interaktif pembukaan loot box menyerupai pengalaman gaya kasino, termasuk animasi berputar dan kesan hampir menang yang bertujuan membina jangkaan. Unsur sedemikian, menurut aduan, mungkin sangat berpengaruh terhadap penonton muda yang membentuk sebahagian besar pangkalan pemain. Valve Dituduh Memperoleh Berbilion Dolar Untung Daripada Sistem Loot Box Di luar pembelian individu, Valve dikatakan menjana hasil tambahan melalui komisen di pasaran digitalnya, di mana pengguna boleh berdagang atau menjual item yang diperoleh. Sistem sekunder ini telah berkembang menjadi ekonomi yang besar, dengan anggaran meletakkan jumlah nilai barangan maya yang berkaitan dengan Counter-Strike dalam angka berbilion dolar. Data yang dirujuk dalam pemfailan menunjukkan bahawa ratusan juta loot box dibuka dalam satu tahun, menghasilkan lebih daripada $1 bilion hanya daripada jualan kunci. Plaintif berhujah bahawa skala ini menunjukkan kepentingan kewangan sistem ini dan mengukuhkan dakwaan bahawa ia beroperasi sama seperti aktiviti perjudian yang dikawal selia. Tindakan undang-undang ini menuntut pampasan untuk pemain yang terjejas, bersama ganti rugi dan pembayaran balik kos undang-undang. Peguam juga sedang mengejar status tindakan kelas, yang akan membolehkan kumpulan pengguna yang lebih luas menyertai kes ini. Valve, yang juga berada di bawah penelitian atas kesalahan serupa di New York, belum menjawab dakwaan tersebut secara umum. Syarikat yang diasaskan pada tahun 1990-an ini juga terkenal kerana mengendalikan Steam, salah satu pasaran permainan PC terbesar di dunia, dan membangunkan tajuk permainan seperti Dota 2 dan Team Fortress. Kes ini menambah kepada penelitian global berterusan terhadap sistem loot box, yang terus mencetuskan perdebatan mengenai persamaannya dengan perjudian dan potensi kesannya terhadap pemain.

Penasihat Parlimen Estonia Diperhentikan Berikutan Kesilapan Cukai Judi ### Translation Notes: 1. **Estonia**: Kept as “Estonia” (proper noun, no translation required) 2. **Adviser**: Translated as “Penasihat” (reflecting the government advisory role)

(AsiaGameHub) - Seorang penasihat kanan di parlimen Estonia kehilangan jawatannya selepas kesilapan penggubalan yang mahal dalam undang-undang perjudian yang dijangka menyebabkan belanjawan negara kerugian berjuta-juta euro. Estonia Kehilangan EUR 4 Juta Selepas Kesilapan Cukai Kesilapan tersebut muncul dalam Gambling Tax Act yang diluluskan pada bulan Disember, di mana penggunaan perkataan yang salah telah mengecualikan pengendali kasino dalam talian daripada cukai bagi tahun 2026. Disebabkan ini, pihak berkuasa menganggarkan kekurangan hasil sekitar EUR 4 juta ($4.6 juta) daripada pendapatan yang dijangkakan. Penggubal undang-undang telah meminda perundangan tersebut, namun kesan kewangan bagi tahun tersebut tetap tidak dapat dielakkan. Pemecatan itu disahkan oleh Riigikogu Chancellery Director Antero Habicht, yang menjelaskan bahawa prosiding tatatertib telah dimulakan pada bulan Januari, lapor ERR News. Menurut beliau, keputusan untuk menamatkan perkhidmatan penasihat tersebut adalah berdasarkan bukan sahaja kepada kesilapan perundangan itu sendiri, tetapi juga isu-isu tambahan yang dikenal pasti dalam semakan dalaman. Beliau menegaskan bahawa keputusan itu dianggap wajar dan tidak dapat dielakkan dalam keadaan tersebut, sambil menolak dakwaan bahawa ia bermotifkan politik. Butiran daripada arahan dalaman mendedahkan bahawa penasihat tersebut telah mengenal pasti kesilapan itu pada awal Januari tetapi tidak memaklumkan pegawai kanan dengan segera. Pihak kepimpinan menyedari situasi tersebut beberapa hari kemudian melalui liputan media, yang meningkatkan penelitian dan kritikan. Ketegangan Politik Meningkat Selepas Kesilapan Cukai Perjudian Estonia Kes ini telah mencetuskan ketegangan politik, dengan tokoh pembangkang berhujah bahawa penasihat tersebut telah dijadikan kambing hitam. Ahli Jawatankuasa Kewangan Aivar Kokk mencadangkan bahawa tanggungjawab tidak seharusnya diletakkan pada seorang individu sahaja, sambil menuduh gabungan pemerintah cuba mengalihkan kritikan. Beliau merujuk kepada kejadian terdahulu di mana pihak lain dipersalahkan sebelum fokus beralih kepada pegawai yang dipecat itu. Konteks tambahan telah merumitkan lagi keadaan. Laporan menunjukkan bahawa penasihat tersebut telah memberi amaran bahawa draf undang-undang itu disediakan terlalu tergesa-gesa dan memerlukan lebih banyak masa untuk semakan yang teliti. Beliau berhujah bahawa perundangan menuntut ketepatan dan pembangunan yang berhati-hati, kerana isu perkataan yang kecil sekalipun boleh membawa akibat yang besar. Dalam maklum balas bertulisnya semasa prosiding, penasihat tersebut merujuk kepada tekanan beban kerja yang berat dan prosedur pelaporan yang tidak jelas sebagai faktor penyumbang. Beliau juga berpendapat bahawa di bawah keadaan yang lebih baik, isu tersebut mungkin dapat dikesan lebih awal. Kontroversi ini berlaku pada masa yang sensitif bagi Estonia, yang berhasrat untuk mengukuhkan kedudukannya sebagai hab yang kompetitif bagi industri iGaming. Negara itu telah menurunkan cukai perjudian dalam taliannya, dengan rancangan untuk mengurangkannya kepada 4% menjelang 2029 dalam usaha untuk menarik pengendali dan pelaburan. Walaupun pembetulan pantas terhadap kesilapan undang-undang tersebut telah dilakukan, insiden ini telah menimbulkan kebimbangan mengenai proses perundangan dan menarik perhatian kepada risiko yang dikaitkan dengan penggubalan dasar yang tergesa-gesa dalam sektor yang mempunyai implikasi kewangan yang besar.

SwissChain Holding Digitizes Participation Certificates on Blockchain Infrastructure

EQS Newswire / 23/03/2026 / 10:09 UTC+8 Geneva, Switzerland - March 23, 2026 - (SeaPRwire) - SwissChain Holding SA, a Geneva-based holding company, announced that it has digitized its participation certificates (“Bons de participation”) by recording and transferring ownership on blockchain infrastructure. The initiative applies distributed ledger technology to a traditional Swiss corporate instrument while maintaining established shareholder protections and corporate governance standards. Implemented within the framework of Switzerland’s Distributed Ledger Technology Act (DLT Act / Lex DLT), the tokenized participation certificates retain full legal enforceability under Swiss law. The digital structure is designed to enhance the precision of ownership records, streamline settlement processes, and strengthen overall corporate recordkeeping without altering the underlying principles of Swiss corporate law. SwissChain oversees a network of specialized subsidiaries across key areas of digital finance. While individual subsidiaries are not named, their activities include trading and market-access infrastructure, licensed third-party custody, corporate treasury operations, and technology integration. This model ensures that the tokenized certificates are supported by functional, scalable infrastructure rather than conceptual models. The company also highlighted its Digital Assets Treasury (DAT) as part of its treasury strategy, with less than half of net proceeds allocated to established digital assets like Bitcoin and Ethereum. The DAT is not a fund, not an investment product, and not a trading operation. Its purpose is long-term balance-sheet diversification carried out within Swiss accounting standards. SwissChain’s tokenization initiative forms part of a broader movement within Switzerland to integrate blockchain infrastructure into traditional corporate processes. The DLT Act provides companies with a clear legal basis for issuing equity in digital form, allowing administrative functions to modernize without altering the underlying structure of Swiss corporate law. A representative for SwissChain noted that the company’s approach reflects Switzerland’s commitment to combining corporate law with technological innovation in a manner consistent with institutional expectations and regulatory clarity.

Huace Group Showcases Swords into Plowshares at FILMART to Drive Global Expansion SeaPRwire

Huace Group Showcases Swords into Plowshares at FILMART to Drive Global Expansion

On March 18, Hong Kong International Film & TV Market (FILMART) – Asia’s largest film and television trade market-was teeming with activity. Amidst the bustling halls, Huace Group booth drew a diverse international crowd, captivated by the “Oriental scroll” unfolding on screen: the historical Chinese drama Swords into Plowshares, which is currently sweeping the globe. During the market, Huace Group presented a slate of key series including Swords into Plowshares, The Heir, and War and People. The creative team behind Swords into Plowshares also made intensive appearances at several high-profile events. Since its January debut, the series has reached 73 countries and regions in over 11 languages, and becoming a phenomenal start for Chinese content exports in 2026. A Single Series Sparks Tourism in Multiple Cities CEO of Huace Group Invites Viewers: “Travel China with Swords into Plowshares” “I warmly invite global audiences to visit Zhejiang, to recognize the beauty of China appears in Swords into Plowshares, walking the landscapes and feeling China through the series’ poetic imagery and moving stories,” CEO of Huace Group, Fu Binxing said in a keynote address at the “Forum on International Comminication Cooperation and Innovation for a New Vision” on March 17, extending a heartfelt invitation to the show’s global viewers. Set in the same era when Otto I was campaigning in Italy to establish the Holy Roman Empire in the West, China in the East was also mired in the turmoil of the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms. Swords into Plowshares follows three young heroes who meet amid the chaos—Qian Hongshu, Zhao Kuangyin, and Guo Rong—each enduring war and separation, steadfastly fulfilling their duties, presenting a panoramic portrait of war and peace of ancient China. This invitation from the CEO of Huace Group stems from the unprecedented cultural tourism trend sparked by the show. As the drama gained popularity, it triggered a “one show, multiple cities” phenomenon across Zhejiang and the rest of China. Cities featured in the plot, such as Hangzhou, Taizhou, Taiyuan, and Kaifeng, have seen a massive influx of tourists, allowing audiences to step off the screen and into the scenery to experience a thousand-year-old vision of peace. “When Hearts Connect, Stories Resonate” Decoding the Global Success of Swords into Plowshares Since its January premiere, Swords into Plowshares has debuted on over 12 major international platforms, covering 73 countries and regions. On YouTube, it has surpassed 10 million views with total exposure exceeding 100 million, successfully breaking through cultural barriers. The series has also received high industry praise at international festivals in Cannes, Tokyo, and Singapore, marking a successful transition from merely “going abroad” to “going deep” into local markets. Wang Yan, the Producer of Swords into Plowshares, provided an in-depth look at how the series achieved such global resonance. She noted that from the project’s inception, the focus was on international positioning: creating a high-quality, international historical epic. The production utilized 8K standards and ultra-high-definition technology, with a professional cast of over 200 actors meticulously matched to their roles. “Everything was done for one purpose: to allow everyone to have an immersive experience,” she said. “Only when we believe in it and enter that world ourselves can the audience be drawn into the story”. Wang Yan believes that while technology is the shell, the core remains key. The title Swords into Plowshares captures the “soul” of the show, expressing a desire for peace over conflict. This compassion for life and longing for peace are universal human emotions. “Ultimately, international expression isn’t about simplifying history; it’s about excavating the essential, shared emotions of humanity,” Wang Yan said. One overseas viewer commented, “To understand the past is to see the future clearly”. By tapping into these deep layers, cultural barriers are dismantled: “When hearts connect, stories resonate”. Huace Group Releases 2026 Line-up Bringing More Chinese Stories Across the Seas The global journey of Swords into Plowshares is far from over. During this FILMART, Huace Group booth hosted over a hundred meetings with overseas buyers from North America, Japan, South Korea, Singapore, Vietnam, Thailand, and the Philippines. Several international platforms reached new cooperations on-site, further strengthening the global distribution network of Huace Group. The global influence of Swords into Plowshares is part of a broader trend. Huace Group has long pursued a “China Wave” strategy, having distributed nearly 180,000 hours of content to over 200 countries and regions. Its self-operated Huace multi-channel network covers 20 languages with over 58 million overseas subscribers. Other recent global successes include Meet Yourself, which brought the “healing breeze” of Dali to the world; Flourished Peony, which captivated audiences with its exquisite Oriental aesthetics; and contemporary dramas like Go Ahead, which showcase the lives of modern Chinese youth. On the evening of March 18, Huace Group held its “Unound Stories, New Experiences” networking event in Hong Kong, attended by nearly 200 representatives from global media and film institutions. The event featured a heavyweight release of key drama projects, including Swords into Plowshares, The Heir, Sentencing, You are My Fateful Love, Blossom, I Live in Your Time, Now or Never, The Garden of Missing Paths, War and People, and A Simply Jane. Additionally, Huace Group plans to launch over ten mid-to-short-form series such as Zizhi Tongjian and Journey to the West, while actively applying AIGC to explore new paradigms of human-machine collaborative creation. From historical epics to modern realism, and from premium long-form series to innovative content formats, Huace Group is driven by “premium content” and “technological empowerment”. This dual engine is building a new pattern of international communication—moving from “going global” to “going in” and finally “integrating in”. As Fu Binxing stated at the forum: “Huace Group is willing to work with the utmost sincerity to invite global creators, tech companies, platforms, and investors to build a ‘Smart Cultural & Creative Community.’ Let more Chinese stories carrying shared human emotions fly to every corner of the world on the wings of innovative technology”

FinHarbor Introduces Rapid-Deployment Neobank Platform for 30-Day Go-Live SeaPRwire

FinHarbor Introduces Rapid-Deployment Neobank Platform for 30-Day Go-Live

Nicosia, Cyprus – March 17, 2026 – (SeaPRwire) – FinHarbor recently announced a major update to its modular fintech infrastructure platform, expanding its crypto-fiat functionality and introducing a deeper orchestration layer across all modules. The updated platform bundles IBAN accounts, card issuing, payments and crypto-fiat exchange into a single stack, reducing typical launch timelines from more than a year to roughly one month. The company positions the platform as a ready-to-deploy foundation for fintech startups, embedded finance teams and licensed institutions that want to bring a financial product to market without building the entire stack internally. The problem it addresses Launching a neobank from scratch is still a long and expensive process. Most teams need 15–20 engineers, more than a year of development, and roughly €1.5–2 million before the first customer can even open an account. FinHarbor’s approach is to remove much of that upfront work. The platform comes with core components already integrated: pre-built connectors to banking partners for IBAN and account infrastructure, card processing, payment rails, and crypto wallets. In practice, this means companies can start with a working financial product instead of assembling and connecting multiple vendors themselves. What changed in the new release The main change in the latest version is the introduction of a unified orchestration layer. Earlier versions of the platform offered modular components that could be connected together. The updated release adds a shared data model, a single audit log and compliance logic that operates across all modules. Clients now integrate through one API and operate under a single contract, while still keeping the option to replace individual components if needed. On the crypto side the platform has added extended custody capabilities for clients with specific blockchain integration requirements, broadening the range of supported networks and asset types. The compliance and AML tooling has also been updated, making it easier to configure the system to match each client’s internal policies and risk frameworks across different jurisdictions. A recent deployment in four weeks One EU-licensed fintech company recently used the updated platform to launch a full neobank in 28 days, including IBAN accounts, card issuance and crypto-fiat exchange. The first week focused on core infrastructure: setting up the environment, integrating identity verification through SumSub, and connecting to the banking partner’s IBAN account infrastructure. During the second week the team activated card issuing and configured the platform’s connections to SEPA, SWIFT, and international payment rails provided by the licensed banking partner. The third week introduced the crypto layer – custodial wallets, exchange logic and fiat ramps. The final week was dedicated to integration testing, white-label interface customisation and the production launch. According to the company, the only noticeable delays were related to compliance approvals with the partner bank – a regulatory step rather than a technical limitation. Industry perspective “The new release is based on a simple idea: orchestration matters more than integration,” – said Ilya Podoynitsyn, CEO of FinHarbor. “Connecting APIs from several vendors isn’t the difficult part. The real challenge is making those components behave like a single product – with unified compliance rules, a shared audit trail and enough flexibility to avoid vendor lock-in. That’s the engineering problem we focused on solving.” Compliance and target users The platform includes built-in AML transaction monitoring, sanctions screening and configurable verification tiers. Suspicious activity reports can be generated in formats accepted by regulators, and every system action is recorded in a unified audit log accessible through the admin panel or API. Companies can operate under their own EMI, PI or VASP licence, or work through a licensed banking partner. The platform is designed to support both models and is aligned with regulatory frameworks such as MiCA and DORA. FinHarbor says the platform is primarily aimed at three types of clients: fintech startups launching an MVP, companies adding embedded financial services to an existing product, and regulated institutions – including banks or government organisations – that need on-premise infrastructure. It is best suited for companies looking to launch and iterate quickly on a proven infrastructure, rather than building every component from scratch. About FinHarbor FinHarbor is a technical platform provider for launching compliant, modular financial products – from wallets and neobanks to crypto ramps and OTC desks. Built on years of real-world fintech experience, the platform covers onboarding, compliance, wallets, transactions, cards, and reporting, delivered with a microservice-based architecture (ISO/PCI DSS-certified), a robust API layer, and on-premise or cloud-ready deployment. FinHarbor supports fiat-only, crypto-native, and hybrid business models across markets in Europe, MENA, and beyond.

Zylo Ecosystem Announces the Launch of the ZYLO Token to Expand Its Digital Ecosystem

San Jose, Costa Rica – March 17, 2026 – (SeaPRwire) – Zylo Ecosystem, a multi-product digital platform that combines trading, gaming products, and online services, has announced the launch of its native token ZYLO. The token will act as the crypto-economic layer of the Zylo ecosystem, connecting various platform products into a unified digital economy. At the same time, the project’s primary focus remains the development of services for a broad audience, including users who are not part of the crypto community. Everyday Internet Users Remain at the Center of the Ecosystem Many projects in the crypto industry are built around blockchain technologies from the start and primarily target the Web3 audience. This approach often limits growth, as such products tend to be understood mainly by users who are already familiar with cryptocurrencies. Zylo Ecosystem follows a different model. The ecosystem is designed so that its products are convenient and accessible for everyday internet users who use digital services, play mobile games, and interact with online platforms. Within this model, the ZYLO token becomes an additional crypto-economic tool that expands the ecosystem’s capabilities without complicating the user experience. What the Zylo Ecosystem Includes The Zylo Ecosystem combines several directions that together form a unified digital and crypto economy. Trading Infrastructure One of the key elements of the ecosystem is intrade.bar, a trading platform with many years of operational history and an established user community. Over time, the platform has built a strong presence in its niche within the CIS market and developed a stable user base. For most users, the platform remains a fully functional online service. The integration of the ZYLO token introduces additional opportunities within the trading infrastructure and expands the platform’s economic model. Gaming Products and the GameFi Direction Gaming is also an important part of the Zylo ecosystem. Within the ecosystem, the CosmoFox project is being developed — a gaming universe that includes elements of collectibles and an in-game economy. At the same time, Fox Survivor is being developed as a mobile and web game in the roguelike survival / bullet-hell genre, where players fight waves of enemies, unlock characters, upgrade weapons, and progress through a meta-progression system. The games are designed as accessible products for a wide audience, while the ZYLO token introduces additional mechanics such as in-game rewards, rare items, premium features, and competitive modes between players. In certain gameplay scenarios, users will be able to participate in PvP battles, placing bets in ZYLO tokens. The winner receives the tokens staked in the match, creating an additional in-game economy and increasing player engagement. These mechanics generate additional token circulation within the gaming economy and create organic demand for the token from players. This approach forms a GameFi economy within the ecosystem, integrated into a broader digital platform. Digital Services In addition to trading and gaming products, Zylo is also developing digital services, including VPN solutions and other online tools. These services add practical utility to the ecosystem and allow the ZYLO token to be used in real user scenarios. How the ZYLO Token Works Within the Zylo ecosystem, the token acts as a crypto-economic layer integrated into the platform’s existing products. The token can be used for: purchases within the ecosystem gaming mechanics and rewards premium features special conditions in trading services payments for digital services The Zylo economy also includes deflationary mechanisms, where a portion of tokens is removed from circulation through various burn mechanisms. As the number of users and services within the ecosystem grows, demand for the token may increase alongside the expansion of its use cases. Cross-Product Ecosystem Model One of the key features of Zylo is its cross-product development model, where different products within the ecosystem strengthen each other. User activity in one service can create value in another. For example, gaming activity may unlock additional opportunities within the ecosystem, while participation in trading services may provide advantages in other products. This structure enables a more sustainable development model compared to projects built around a single product direction. Preparation for the First Exchange Listing Zylo Ecosystem is currently in the final stage of preparation for the first exchange listing of the ZYLO token. The listing will represent an important step in integrating the ecosystem into the broader crypto market and expanding access to the token for the crypto community. At the same time, the project’s strategy remains focused primarily on product development and user growth rather than on exchange activity alone. Founder’s Comment “We are building products for a broad audience of internet users, not just for the crypto community,” says Alex, founder of Zylo Ecosystem. “The ZYLO token adds a crypto-economic layer to existing products and allows us to expand the ecosystem’s capabilities without complicating the user experience.” What’s Next Following the token launch and the first exchange listing, the Zylo team continues developing the ecosystem, including: deeper integration of the token into trading infrastructure expansion of the CosmoFox gaming economy development of Fox Survivor gameplay launching new digital services and expanding them within the ecosystem At the same time, Zylo is building an ecosystem accelerator, through which new startups will be able to connect to the project’s infrastructure and integrate the ZYLO token into their products. About Zylo Ecosystem Zylo Ecosystem is a multi-product digital platform that combines trading services, gaming products, and online tools. The ecosystem is designed as a convenient digital environment for everyday users, while the ZYLO token forms a crypto-economic layer that connects different services and expands the platform’s capabilities. This approach allows Zylo to combine the convenience of traditional online services with the possibilities of a Web3 economy.
