Pejabat Penguat CFTC Menolak “Myth” Bahawa Undang‑Undang Perdagangan Dalam Talian Tidak Berlaku Bagi Pasaran Ramalan

April 2, 2026
(AsiaGameHub) - Dalam ucapan pada 31 Mac di New York University Law School, David Miller, Pengarah Penguatkuasaan yang baru dilantik di Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC), memberitahu hadirin, "era peraturan melalui penguatkuasaan telah berakhir," menandakan peralihan besar dalam strategi suruhanjaya itu. Semasa ucapan itu, beliau menekankan bahawa di bawah kepimpinan semasa CFTC, suruhanjaya itu akan menumpukan pada misi terasnya iaitu "mengawal penipuan, penyalahgunaan, dan manipulasi" dan bukannya menetapkan dasar. Beliau juga menyampaikan salah satu amaran paling jelas setakat ini kepada pedagang pasaran ramalan, dengan menyatakan bahawa suruhanjaya itu akan "mengesan, menyiasat, dan, jika perlu, mendakwa secara agresif perdagangan orang dalam" di pasaran ini. Miller menekankan bahawa menggunakan maklumat orang dalam untuk berdagang di pasaran ramalan bukanlah jenayah tanpa mangsa dan mempunyai "akibat serius terhadap integriti dan kepercayaan pasaran." Miller Berkata Pasaran Ramalan Tidak Pengecualian Daripada Undang-undang Perdagangan Orang Dalam Miller menggunakan ucapannya di NYU untuk menggariskan lima keutamaan penguatkuasaan utama CFTC, dengan meletakkan perdagangan orang dalam dan manipulasi pasaran di bahagian atas senarai. Beliau secara khusus menyentuh apa yang digambarkan sebagai "mitos dalam media arus perdana dan media sosial" bahawa pasaran ramalan dikecualikan daripada undang-undang perdagangan orang dalam, dengan menyatakan bahawa dakwaan tersebut adalah "salah." Commodity Exchange Act dan Peraturan 180.1, kedua-duanya dimodelkan selepas undang-undang sekuriti persekutuan, membenarkan agensi itu untuk menganggap jenis perdagangan orang dalam tertentu dalam pasaran komoditi dan swap sebagai penipuan, jelas Miller. Satu dagangan akan disemak apabila ia melibatkan maklumat yang seseorang mempunyai kewajipan untuk melindunginya, katanya, menekankan bahawa perdagangan bermaklumat biasa bukanlah masalah dan agensi itu mengejar mereka yang "memberi petunjuk atau berdagang dengan maklumat yang disalahgunakan." Bursa pasaran ramalan juga mempunyai tanggungjawab untuk melindungi platform mereka, menurut Miller, yang menggelar mereka sebagai "barisan pertahanan pertama" terhadap perdagangan orang dalam dan manipulasi. Beliau menyatakan bahawa bursa mempunyai kewajipan statutori untuk "melindungi pasaran daripada amalan penyalahgunaan" dan hanya menyenaraikan kontrak yang "tidak terdedah kepada manipulasi."Bekas pengawal selia CFTC Carl Kennedy menjelaskan tanggungjawab ini kepada CasinoBeats semasa temu bual pada Februari, dengan berkata: "CFTC adalah agensi yang sangat kuat, tetapi ia hanya beberapa orang," itulah sebabnya Kongres memberikannya kuasa untuk membenarkan bursa "membantu agensi mengawal pasaran ini." Beliau menambah, "Jika anda adalah bursa berdaftar … salah satu peranan anda juga adalah menjadi pengawal selia yang dilantik oleh CFTC untuk mengawal pasaran anda sendiri." Sebagai sebahagian daripada tugas mereka untuk mengawal pasaran mereka sendiri, Miller berkata bursa mempunyai "kewajipan untuk mempunyai pengawasan, amalan pematuhan dan prosedur yang sesuai" yang ada untuk "menggalakkan perdagangan yang adil dan saksama." Semasa ucapannya, Miller juga menyoroti kes baru-baru ini yang melibatkan Kalshi, di mana seorang editor MrBeast menggunakan maklumat yang dipelajarinya di tempat kerja untuk membuat dagangan di platform tersebut.Beliau juga menunjukkan perjanjian perkongsian maklumat baru CFTC dengan MLB sebagai contoh pendekatan proaktif agensi terhadap risiko integriti dalam pasaran kontrak acara. Tekanan Perdagangan Orang Dalam Terus Meningkat di Washington Kenyataan Miller di NYU datang ketika CFTC dan pasaran ramalan menghadapi tekanan yang meningkat dari Capitol Hill untuk membanteras perdagangan orang dalam. Pada 29 Mac, Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-MA), bersama dengan 41 penggubal undang-undang lain, menghantar surat kepada Pengerusi CFTC Michael Selig dan Pejabat Etika Kerajaan menyeru mereka untuk mengeluarkan panduan rasmi kepada pekerja persekutuan, memberi amaran kepada mereka agar tidak menggunakan maklumat orang dalam untuk membuat dagangan di pasaran ramalan. Dalam surat itu, penggubal undang-undang itu merujuk kepada perdagangan yang mencurigakan menjelang penangkapan Nicolás Maduro oleh Angkatan Tentera AS pada Januari, serta pertaruhan yang tepat pada masanya yang kelihatan menjangkakan serangan bersama AS-Israel ke atas Iran pada Mac, dan spekulasi mengenai status jawatan bekas Setiausaha Department of Homeland Security Kristi Noem. Kongres juga menggunakan perundangan untuk memerangi perdagangan orang dalam di pasaran ramalan, memperkenalkan beberapa rang undang-undang sejak awal tahun, termasuk: Akta PREDICT: Melarang ahli Kongres dan pegawai persekutuan kanan daripada berdagang kontrak acara politik. Akta Integriti Awam dalam Pasaran Ramalan Kewangan: Melarang pegawai persekutuan daripada berdagang apabila mereka memiliki maklumat tidak awam yang penting yang diperoleh melalui tugas rasmi mereka. Akta Menamatkan Rasuah Pasaran Ramalan: Menghalang presiden, naib presiden, dan ahli Kongres daripada berdagang kontrak acara sama sekali. Memandangkan penekanan terhadap perdagangan orang dalam semasa ucapan Miller, nampaknya CFTC cuba menghantar mesej sebelum skandal seterusnya berlaku: walaupun pasaran ramalan mungkin merupakan wilayah politik yang baru, agensi itu tidak melihat perdagangan orang dalam sebagai kawasan kelabu undang-undang dan mempunyai kuasa untuk mengejar pedagang yang menyalahgunakan maklumat bukan awam.

Glitch dalam Permainan Slot William Hill Disebabkan Kem ajal Hati Seorang Penjudi, Pengguna Rancang Tindakan Hukum iGame

Glitch dalam Permainan Slot William Hill Disebabkan Kem ajal Hati Seorang Penjudi, Pengguna Rancang Tindakan Hukum

April 2, 2026
(AsiaGameHub) - Satu masalah teknikal dalam salah satu permainan slot dalam talian William Hill telah dipersalahkan kerana menyebabkan seorang pengguna mengalami serangan jantung. John Riding, 76, mengalami serangan jantung beberapa hari selepas mengetahui wang kemenangan £285,000 ($376,000) tidak lagi berada dalam akaunnya. Masalah teknikal itu berlaku pada permainan Jackpot Drop platform tersebut bulan lalu. Pengendali itu membayar 35,072 jackpot slot dalam talian berbanding hanya 518 dalam tempoh yang sama seminggu sebelumnya. Dalam beberapa kes, seperti Riding, pengguna dikreditkan dengan jumlah enam angka. Beliau telah meraikan kemenangan itu di kedai William Hill tempatannya dan memaklumkan keluarganya tentang berita tersebut. William Hill, bagaimanapun, tidak lama kemudian memaklumkan kepadanya bahawa wang itu telah dikreditkan secara tidak sengaja. Syarikat itu mengeluarkan kenyataan, menyatakan, “Semasa semakan rutin aktiviti platform, kami mengenal pasti isu yang menjejaskan permainan Jackpot Drop, yang buat sementara waktu mengakibatkan jumlah yang salah dikreditkan ke baki pemain dan pengeluaran diproses secara tidak betul.” Impian Musnah dan Tekanan Dipersalahkan Punca Masalah Kesihatan “Saya benar-benar hancur. Ia seperti impian saya berkecai,” kata Riding kepada Mirror minggu ini. “Saya tidak pernah diberitahu secara rasmi bahawa ia adalah satu kesilapan, hanya mereka telah membuat ‘pelarasan manual’. £285,000 itu tidak lagi berada dalam akaun saya tetapi mesejnya adalah – saya untung £285,000 bulan ini.” Keluarganya berkata beliau berada dalam keadaan sihat, tetapi menjadi tertekan apabila cuba mengakses akaunnya dan mengeluarkan wang kemenangan. “Kejutan itu tidak tertanggung,” kata anaknya, Adam. “Ia bukan hanya tentang wang, ia adalah cara ia dikendalikan. Ia terasa seperti ketidakadilan yang sebenar, dan tekanan daripadanya telah memberi kesan serius kepada kesihatannya.” Anak perempuannya menambah, “Ayah saya berkata, ‘Saya tidak boleh menangani tekanan ini.’ Ia pasti menjejaskannya. Saya menyalahkan tekanan itu sebagai punca serangan jantung. Kami semua begitu!“ Seorang jurucakap William Hill berkata, “Kami juga amat kesal mendengar tentang keadaan Encik Riding dan mendoakan beliau cepat sembuh.” Pengguna Merancang Tindakan Undang-undang Pengendali itu berdepan prospek tindakan undang-undang berhubung kesilapan tersebut. Paul Kanolik dari Ellis Jones solicitors berkata pihaknya telah dihubungi oleh kira-kira 50 pengguna yang sedang mempertimbangkan tindakan kumpulan. Firma itu telah menggesa pengguna lain yang terjejas oleh masalah teknikal itu untuk menghubungi mereka. Satu kenyataan di laman webnya menyatakan, “Di Ellis Jones, peguam kami pakar dalam mengendalikan tuntutan dan aduan berkaitan perjudian, sentiasa membantu pelanggan untuk mendapatkan semula kerugian yang disebabkan oleh kegagalan pengendali pertaruhan.” Tahun lalu, seorang pengguna memenangi kes serupa terhadap Paddy Power di UK. Syarikat pertaruhan itu telah membayar Corrine Durber lebih daripada £1 juta ($1.3 juta), tetapi cuba membatalkan kemenangan itu, dengan alasan kesilapan sistem. Ia mengambil masa lima tahun untuk mendapatkan penghakiman, tetapi pada Mei tahun lalu beliau akhirnya dianugerahkan jumlah penuh. Dalam keputusan itu, hakim menyatakan, “Apabila seorang peniaga meletakkan semua risiko kepada pengguna atas kecuaian, kelalaian, kesilapan, perkhidmatan digital yang tidak mencukupi dan ujian yang tidak mencukupi, itu kelihatan membebankan bagi saya.” Ellis Jones juga memetik kes Andrew Green lwn Petfre, syarikat induk Betfred. Green memenangi £1.7 juta ($2.25 juta) disebabkan masalah teknikal. Seperti Durber, beliau akhirnya dianugerahkan jumlah penuh apabila seorang hakim memutuskan syarat-syarat Betfred terlalu samar untuk mengelak daripada membayar kemenangan. Dengan kira-kira 35,000 jackpot yang nampaknya dibayar secara tidak sengaja di William Hill, pengendali itu berharap pengguna lebih memahami kesilapan tersebut. “Kami telah menghubungi pelanggan yang berkaitan untuk menjelaskan isu tersebut dan sedang dalam proses mendapatkan semula dana selaras dengan terma dan syarat standard kami. Kami berterima kasih atas pemahaman pelanggan kami dalam perkara ini dan memohon maaf atas kesulitan yang berlaku,” kata syarikat itu. William Hill menghadapi masa depan yang tidak menentu selepas syarikat induk Evoke mengumumkan semakan strategik yang boleh membawa kepada pemecahan kumpulan itu, yang turut merangkumi 888.

The Star Entertainment Group Menyelesaikan Pengeluarannya Daripada DBC iGame

The Star Entertainment Group Menyelesaikan Pengeluarannya Daripada DBC

April 2, 2026
(AsiaGameHub) - The Star Entertainment Group mengumumkan dalam satu siaran ASX bahawa ia telah melengkapkan pelupusan kepentingannya dalam Destination Brisbane Consortium (DBC) yang diumumkan sebelum ini. Perjanjian itu, yang menyaksikan The Star menjual kepentingannya dalam Queen’s Wharf Brisbane, mempunyai beberapa kelemahan, tetapi akhirnya akan mengurangkan hutang The Star dalam tempoh yang bergolak. The Star Keluar daripada DBC Dalam pengumumannya, The Star berkata ia telah melengkapkan penjualan kepentingannya dalam DBC, yang merangkumi kepentingan 50% dalam Queen’s Wharf Brisbane, kepada rakan usaha sama niaganya, Chow Tai Fook Enterprises (CTFE) dan Far East Consortium International (FEC). Penjualan itu melengkapkan keluarnya The Star daripada DBC, walaupun dengan syarat yang agak bercampur-campur. Hasilnya, CTFE dan FEC akan berkhidmat sebagai pemilik bersama harta Queen’s Wharf Brisbane, dengan setiap satu memiliki kepentingan 50%. Dalam pada itu, The Star tidak lagi akan menerima yuran pengendali di bawah Perjanjian Pengurusan Kasino DBC. Sebaliknya, ia akan menerima yuran bulanan tetap sebanyak AUD 18 juta setahun, serta yuran insentif berasaskan prestasi berdasarkan angka EBITDA. Perjanjian Akan Mengurangkan Beban Hutang The Star Seperti yang dinyatakan, syarat jualan itu tidak sempurna untuk The Star. Walau bagaimanapun, ia bermakna syarikat itu akan mengurangkan hutangnya dengan ketara, kerana ia akan menghapuskan beban hutang yang berkaitan dengan harta Brisbane. Pada masa yang sama, yuran AUD 18 juta akan dibayar setiap bulan, menyediakan syarikat itu dengan sumber pendapatan yang stabil dalam tempoh yang bergolak. Namun, rundingan awal mencadangkan bahawa dalam keadaan yang berbeza, The Star boleh menerima yuran tahunan sebanyak AUD 60 juta dan bukannya AUD 18 juta sekarang. Rundingan keseluruhan dengan rakan usaha sama The Star terbukti sukar pada masa-masa tertentu, menjadikan jalan keluar syarikat itu daripada DBC agak berliku. Perniagaan The Star telah berada dalam bahaya selama beberapa tahun, dengan kebanyakan masalah berpunca daripada kawalan AML syarikat yang longgar, yang mengakibatkan pemeriksaan kawal selia yang ketara di seluruh pelbagai pasaran. Syarikat itu sejak itu dianggap tidak sesuai untuk memegang lesen di New South Wales dan Queensland disebabkan oleh keterukan kelemahannya. Memburukkan lagi keadaan, langkah pemulihan awal The Star terbukti sangat tidak mencukupi, mengakibatkan masalah lanjut dan kehilangan kepercayaan pelabur. Pada titik terendahnya, The Star terhindar secara tangkas daripada muflis. Harapan akhirnya muncul di ufuk dalam bentuk Bally’s Corporation, yang memperoleh kepentingan majoriti dalam syarikat Australia itu. Bally’s mengakui bahawa pengurusan syarikat sebelum ini amat mengecewakan, tetapi menekankan bahawa ia berharap untuk mengubah keadaan. Artikel ini disediakan oleh penyedia kandungan pihak ketiga.

Founders Metals Makes First Discovery at Antino North; Drills 17.22 g/t Au over 3.6 m within 24.6 m of 2.81 g/t Au

Vancouver, BC, Apr 2, 2026 - (ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) - Founders Metals Inc. (TSXV: FDR) (OTCQX: FDMIF) (FSE: 9DL0) ("Founders" or the "Company") announces a new high-grade gold discovery at its Antino Gold Project ("Antino" or "Project") in southeastern Suriname. The Company reports high-grade gold mineralization from surface, returning 17.22 grams per tonne (g/t) gold (Au) over 3.6 metres (m) within a broader 24.6 m interval grading 2.81 g/t Au, in the first-ever drillhole in the Antino North area (Figure 1).HighlightsFirst ever Antino North drilling delivers exceptional results from surface in the first drillhole (AN001)24.6 m of 2.81 g/t Au including 3.60 m of 17.22 g/t Au from 1.5 m down hole13.5 m of 0.44 g/t Au from 54.6 mFirst drillhole testing one of twelve gold-bearing structures identified to date at Antino NorthSurface work continues:Over 4,500 auger samples to date in 2026Total combined strike length of mapped shear zones on surface is 5.3 kmSecond Antino North drill now turning on previously undrilled kilometre-scale gold auger anomaly (Figure 2)Colin Padget, President & CEO, commented, "The Antino North area covers nearly 10,000 hectares of highly prospective geology that has never seen a drillhole - so we are thrilled to see such high-grade results from our first diamond hole into the area. Our team on the ground has so far mapped twelve parallel shear zones across and along strike of the intercepted structure, and we plan to test many of them over the current ~3,500 metre phase-one drill program. This Antino North discovery reinforces our belief that the larger Antino Project is host to a major district-scale gold system, and there remains significant exploration upside and opportunity for further discoveries with this year's exploration program."Antino North DrillingThe new discovery is hosted within a series of approximately 5- to 25-metre-wide shear zones, with geological characteristics consistent with high-grade gold mineralization documented elsewhere on the Antino Gold Project, including at Upper Antino. The reported drillhole tested the first of twelve northwest-trending parallel shears recently mapped over multiple kilometres across the Antino North area, highlighting the significant scale of the mineralizing system. The mapped shear zones are spatially coincident with a large regional-scale fold - a structural setting commonly associated with orogenic gold deposits across the Guiana Shield.Mineralization is similar in character to the shear- and vein-hosted gold mineralization at Upper Antino, comprising sheared subvertical quartz veins with late brittle deformation overprinting and a sericite-ankerite-tourmaline alteration assemblage.The Antino North concession has no record of historical diamond drilling. This discovery represents the first drill-tested gold zone within the recently acquired exploration concession, located approximately 20 kilometres southwest of the Upper Antino area - confirming the potential for new mineralized centres across the district-scale Antino land package.Table 1: Drill Hole Assay ResultsDrillholeFrom (m)To (m)Interval (m)Au (g/t)AN0011.5026.1024.602.81incl1.505.103.6017.22and54.6068.1013.500.44 *Intervals are down-hole depths.

DENSO and FoodVentures Strengthen Collaboration through Capital Partnership in the Agricultural Sector

April 2, 2026
KARIYA, JAPAN, Apr 2, 2026 - (JCN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) - DENSO CORPORATION and FoodVentures announced that DENSO has acquired a partial equity stake in FoodVentures and made FoodVentures a consolidated subsidiary. Through this capital partnership, DENSO and FoodVentures will strengthen their collaboration to globally deploy the One-Stop Solution, which enables stable and predictable agricultural production through an integrated approach.In recent years, changes in social conditions—such as the progression of climate change, a declining farming population in some areas, and growing importance of food security—have accelerated efforts around the world to secure agricultural production and improve food self-sufficiency. As a result, new entrants into the agricultural sector are emerging, and there is a growing global demand to realize sustainably local-grown agricultural production.Since 2017, DENSO has positioned agriculture as a new pillar of its business and, in 2022, further strengthened this commitment by incorporating it into its articles of incorporation. Leveraging technologies developed through automotive component manufacturing—including production process design, sensing, and image processing—DENSO has been advancing environmental control and automation technologies for greenhouse horticulture.In addition, DENSO has been strengthening collaboration with partners that possesses expertise in greenhouses, seeds and seedlings, and cultivation technologies—key element for sustainable agricultural production. In 2023, DENSO welcomed Certhon, a provider of advanced horticultural greenhouses, into the DENSO Group. In 2025, DENSO also welcomed Axia, a developer and distributor of tomato seeds and seedlings, and entered into a joint development agreement with Delphy, a global cultivation consulting company.FoodVentures, newly joining the DENSO Group, has worked for more than 10 years to provide solutions that combine cultivation technologies with operational support, with a view to grow vegetables closer to its consumers.

Undang-undang Baharu Bilik Kad California Berkuatkuasa Sementara Industri Mencari Injunksi iGame

Undang-undang Baharu Bilik Kad California Berkuatkuasa Sementara Industri Mencari Injunksi

April 2, 2026
(AsiaGameHub) - Industri bilik kad (cardroom) California sedang menghadapi ancaman kewujudan akibat peraturan baharu yang berkuat kuasa pada 1 April. Peraturan baharu tersebut, yang cuba dibatalkan oleh pihak industri, secara berkesan mengharamkan bilik kad daripada menawarkan permainan jenis blackjack, yang merupakan nadi kepada tempat-tempat tersebut dan ekonomi di sekelilingnya. Peraturan Bilik Kad Baharu California Telah Berkuat Kuasa Awal tahun ini, California Attorney General Rob Bonta dan Bureau of Gambling Control telah meluluskan perubahan kawal selia yang menyeluruh. Memetik pelbagai kebimbangan mengenai masalah perjudian, penggubal undang-undang secara berkesan bersetuju untuk melarang bilik kad daripada menawarkan permainan blackjack pemain-pengedar (player-dealer) yang menjadi kebergantungan mereka selama ini. Sebagai konteks, undang-undang California melarang sesiapa sahaja selain suku kaum negeri (state tribes) daripada menawarkan perjudian berbank (banked gambling). Hasilnya, bilik kad telah lama menggunakan perkhidmatan pemain-pengedar pihak ketiga dan mencipta varian blackjack yang selaras dengan rangka kerja kawal selia tempatan. Penggunaan third-party proposition player services (TPPPs) telah menjadi sinonim dengan bilik kad, yang merupakan penyumbang utama kepada ekonomi tempatan. Bercakap mengenai pemain-pengedar, peraturan baharu tersebut tidak melarang sepenuhnya idea itu, walaupun ia menyatakan bahawa pemain-pengedar mesti bertukar setiap 40 minit. Peraturan tersebut berkuat kuasa pada 1 April, walaupun bilik kad mempunyai masa sehingga 31 Mei untuk menyerahkan pelan pematuhan mereka. Ini bermakna aktiviti perjudian akan kekal tidak berubah untuk beberapa bulan. Walau bagaimanapun, wakil industri bimbang tentang apa yang akan berlaku selepas itu. Bilik Kad Membawa Perkara Ini ke Mahkamah Sektor bilik kad California telah menolak dengan tegas peraturan baharu tersebut, mendakwa bahawa ia akan memusnahkan bukan sahaja industri tersebut malah keseluruhan ekonomi tempatan. Beberapa kawasan di California menerima sebahagian besar hasil cukai mereka daripada industri bilik kad, yang bermaksud undang-undang baharu itu boleh membawa kesan yang lebih luas daripada yang dijangkakan. Selain itu, wakil industri berhujah bahawa undang-undang baharu itu akan menjejaskan ribuan pekerjaan. Industri ini kini menggaji ramai lelaki dan wanita, yang sedang mengalami ketidakpastian yang ketara akibat peraturan baharu tersebut. Walau apa pun, pihak industri enggan berdiam diri sementara peraturan baharu itu berkuat kuasa dan telah membawa perkara ini ke mahkamah, dengan harapan untuk mendapatkan injunksi. Pada masa yang sama, pihak berkuasa suku kaum kelihatan berpuas hati dengan perubahan tersebut. Suku kaum telah lama percaya bahawa bilik kad melanggar hak eksklusif mereka dalam menawarkan perjudian dan telah lama membantah kewujudan industri bilik kad. Wakil mereka menyatakan bahawa mereka gembira dengan keputusan AG dan melahirkan harapan agar California akan menguatkuasakan peraturan baharu tersebut dengan sewajarnya.

Gibraltar Membuka Pintu kepada Pasaran Ramalan dengan Lesen Pertama iGame

Gibraltar Membuka Pintu kepada Pasaran Ramalan dengan Lesen Pertama

April 1, 2026
(AsiaGameHub) - Gibraltar telah mengambil langkah penting ke dalam segmen ekonomi digital yang berkembang pesat dengan meluluskan lesen pertama untuk operator pasaran ramalan. Langkah ini mencerminkan usaha yang lebih luas oleh wilayah itu untuk berkembang melangkaui kekuatan tradisionalnya dalam perjudian dalam talian dan perkhidmatan kewangan sambil menangani tekanan ekonomi yang semakin meningkat. Gibraltar Menuju Inovasi dengan Kelulusan Pantas Lesen Pasaran Ramalan Baharu Pengumuman itu disampaikan semasa sesi parlimen di mana pegawai menekankan bahawa permohonan tersebut telah diproses. Garis masa yang dipercepatkan menandakan niat yang jelas untuk kekal kompetitif dalam sektor yang baru muncul dan untuk menarik model perniagaan yang inovatif. Walaupun pihak berkuasa tidak menamakan pemegang lesen, perhatian industri telah beralih kepada Predict Street Ltd, yang muncul dalam daftar kerajaan sebagai perantara pertaruhan yang diluluskan. Walaupun hubungan ini belum disahkan, penyenaraian itu telah membakar spekulasi bahawa syarikat itu berada di sebalik lesen yang diberikan, dilaporkan oleh Malta Media. Keputusan ini dibuat pada masa Gibraltar sedang menyesuaikan diri dengan perubahan dalam rangka kerja percukaian perjudian United Kingdom. Kenaikan terkini dalam duti perjudian UK dijangka memberi kesan kepada operator yang berpusat di Gibraltar, yang kebanyakannya bergantung pada akses kepada pasaran British. Wakil kerajaan menunjukkan bahawa menerima sektor baharu seperti pasaran ramalan boleh membantu mengimbangi potensi kehilangan hasil dan menyokong kestabilan ekonomi jangka panjang. Trend Pasaran Ramalan yang Meningkat Berdepan Peraturan Bercampur di Seluruh Eropah Pasaran ramalan berfungsi sebagai platform di mana pengguna bertaruh pada hasil peristiwa dunia sebenar, dari pertandingan sukan hingga perkembangan politik dan trend ekonomi. Harga dalam pasaran ini mencerminkan jangkaan kolektif peserta, meletakkan model ini di suatu tempat antara perdagangan kewangan dan pertaruhan tradisional. Sifat hibrid ini telah menyukarkan pengawalseliaan. Di seluruh Eropah, pihak berkuasa telah mengambil pendirian yang tidak konsisten, dengan beberapa negara memilih untuk menyekat atau mengharamkan platform sedemikian sama sekali, manakala yang lain telah menerimanya. Kebimbangan selalunya tertumpu pada sama ada perkhidmatan ini harus dianggap sebagai instrumen kewangan atau diletakkan di bawah undang-undang perjudian. Sebaliknya, Gibraltar telah memilih pendekatan yang lebih terbuka dengan membawa pasaran ramalan ke dalam sistem kawal selia sedia ada. Pegawai percaya bahawa menyediakan rangka kerja terkawal akan membolehkan idea baharu sambil mengekalkan pengawasan dan perlindungan pengguna. Minat terhadap sektor ini berkembang dengan pesat. Pemain industri utama dan syarikat pertaruhan yang mantap telah mula meneroka produk yang serupa, manakala platform ramalan khusus terus menarik penglibatan pengguna yang ketara di seluruh dunia. Walau bagaimanapun, pengembangan tidak berlaku tanpa kontroversi, kerana pengawal selia dalam pelbagai bidang kuasa telah meningkatkan pemeriksaan. Predict Street Ltd, yang dipercayai berkaitan dengan lesen baharu itu, telah menunjukkan cita-cita yang berkaitan dengan acara global utama, termasuk Piala Dunia FIFA 2026. Platform itu sedang bersiap untuk dilancarkan dan telah mula menjemput pendaftaran pengguna awal. Artikel ini disediakan oleh penyedia kandungan pihak ketiga.

Dialogue with HighTide Therapeutics’ CMO Dr. Filip Surmont: Moving Beyond the “Blockbuster” Legacy to Reshape Kidney Disease Treatment Through a Dual-Mechanism Approach ACN Newswire

Dialogue with HighTide Therapeutics’ CMO Dr. Filip Surmont: Moving Beyond the “Blockbuster” Legacy to Reshape Kidney Disease Treatment Through a Dual-Mechanism Approach

April 1, 2026
HONG KONG, Apr 2, 2026 - (ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) - Across the landscape of global biotech companies, the appointment of a senior executive often serves as a "barometer"—offering insights into a company's pipeline potential and reflecting how industry veterans gauge the sector’s future.A clear signal of the company’s growth arrived in February 2026, when HighTide Therapeutics (2511.HK) announced a high-profile executive appointment: Dr. Filip Surmont joined the company as Chief Medical Officer (CMO).For professionals in the cardiovascular, renal, and metabolic fields, this is a name that carries real weight. Over a career spanning three decades, Dr. Surmont has held senior medical leadership roles at multinational giants including Wyeth, Pfizer, and AstraZeneca. Among his most notable contributions was his role in the global strategic development of the SGLT-2 inhibitor dapagliflozin — a landmark effort that required close collaboration across functions and geographies within a large multinational organization. As part of a talented cross-functional team, he helped shape the strategy that positioned dapagliflozin as a global metabolic blockbuster, ultimately reaching $8.405 billion USD in sales in 2025.Notably, just a few months earlier, HighTide Therapeutics' core product, HTD1801, had outperformed dapagliflozin across multiple key cardiovascular, renal, and metabolic endpoints in a head-to-head Phase III clinical trial for type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM).For Dr. Surmont, transitioning from managing a reigning "blockbuster" to joining a “challenger” Chinese biotech was far from coincidental. What drew him out of his comfort zone was not just HTD1801's strong glucose-lowering performance, but also the breakthrough potential this new molecular entity (NME) has shown in cardiovascular, kidney and metabolic (CKM) disease in general, and chronic kidney disease (CKD) more specifically — driven by a fundamentally differentiated pathophysiological mechanisms.I.Challenging Clinical Complacency in CKD: The Quest for True ReversalWithin the medical community, chronic kidney disease (CKD) has long been a source of frustration. Once the kidney function begins to decline, it typically deteriorates progressively and irreversibly over time, leaving most patients facing dialysis or kidney transplantation as an eventual outcome."There has long been a degree of complacency in CKD treatment among physicians, patients, and even caregivers," Dr. Surmont noted pointedly. "A mindset has taken hold that the progressive decline in renal function with age is inevitable. I’ve been striving to change this mindset throughout my career, both during my time at multinational pharmaceutical companies and now."Current standard treatments — including ACE inhibitors/ARBs and the widely used SGLT-2 inhibitors — have demonstrated efficacy in slowing disease progression, yet fall short of halting or reversing the underlying pathology. They can significantly reduce the rate of decline in the estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR), buying patients valuable time, but fail to alter the terminal trajectory towards kidney failure.Further complicating the clinical picture is the multi-factorial nature of CKD. Taking diabetic kidney disease (DKD) caused by T2DM as an example, besides pathophysiological factors driven by metabolic dysfunction, it is complicated by interconnected and highly complex factors such as hemodynamic perturbances, chronic inflammation, fibrosis, and other non-diabetic factors that fuel each other to worsen disease prognosis.Existing standard-of-care drugs often address only one dimension of the disease by regulating hemodynamics or a single metabolic pathway, making it difficult to comprehensively address the inflammatory damage in the renal microenvironment.II.Inside the Mechanism: Remodeling Renal Architecture via a Dual Metabolic and Anti-inflammatory PathwayThe emergence of HTD1801 provides a new key to breaking this deadlock.As an oral anti-inflammatory and metabolic modulator (AIMM) independently developed by HighTide Therapeutics, HTD1801 demonstrates a unique therapeutic potential at the microscopic level as compared to traditional drugs. Rather than relying on a single mechanism, it takes a "two-pronged" approach by activating AMPK (adenosine monophosphate-activated protein kinase) and inhibiting the NLRP3 inflammasome.Dr. Surmont has full confidence in the scientific logic underpinning this mechanism: "This drug acts simultaneously on two critical levels: beyond blood sugar, it improves overall metabolic efficiency at its source; at the same time, it directly suppresses the underlying chronic inflammation that drives organ damage."Taking a deep dive into its mechanism of action, HTD1801's dual mechanism precisely targets multiple microstructures within the kidney. "This is reflected across different renal compartments," Dr. Surmont explained. "From the filtering glomeruli and the structural interstitium to the reabsorptive tubules, and even podocytes—the vital gatekeepers of the filtration barrier, the dual action of AMPK activation and NLRP3 inhibition has demonstrated stronger-than-expected protective benefits."This mechanistic rationale, spanning from metabolic regulation to organ-level protection, has ultimately been validated by clinical data.At the 2025 American Society of Nephrology (ASN) Annual Meeting, HighTide Therapeutics presented as a late breaker Phase III clinical study data in T2DM patients with mild renal impairment. The results captured the industry's attention: compared with the placebo group, the HTD1801 group demonstrated a significant and sustainable difference in annualized eGFR slope of +9.81 ml/min/1.73 m²/year.In the eyes of nephrologists, a "positive slope" on the eGFR curve is a strong and unique signal, suggesting the possibility of early structural recovery."What we need to do next is confirm that this eGFR repair effect observed in DKD also holds true for CKD patients not driven by diabetes," Dr. Surmont revealed, indicating that relevant clinical studies are already underway, with more detailed data expected to validate this cross-etiology therapeutic potential.III.From "Rescue" to "Prevention": Advancing a Holistic Cardiorenal Metabolic (CKM) MindsetDr. Surmont brings to HighTide Therapeutics more than just clinical expertise; he brings a “game-changing” mentality that transcends a single-drug perspective.Another career-defining milestone for Dr. Surmont was his leadership role in helping reshape global asthma treatment guidelines. Historically, asthma management relied on short-acting bronchodilators for "rescue" only upon exacerbation of symptoms and shortness of breath. Dr. Surmont proposed and validated the "Anti-Inflammatory Reliever (AIR)" strategy a modern asthma management strategy that uses a combination inhaled corticosteroids and a bronchodilator as a reliever — treating both the acute bronchospasm and the underlying airway inflammation with every dose, in contrast to traditional short acting dilator-only relief. This shift ultimately benefited approximately 120 million patients worldwide and reshaped treatment paradigms.Now, facing CKD, he sees the same opportunity for a paradigm-shifting breakthrough.Given HTD1801's strong potential to repair mild renal impairment, future clinical guidelines could reasonably recommend initiating treatments early, when eGFR is still at a relatively high level. By establishing a positive trajectory for renal function recovery early in the disease, there is hope that most patients can completely avoid the looming threat of dialysis.From a health-economics perspective, this would reallocate healthcare spending: shifting funds away from costly late-stage interventions (such as dialysis and heart failure rescue) towards highly cost-effective early treatment, thereby generating substantial healthcare cost savings for society and reducing patients’ financial burden for late-stage interventions.Dr. Surmont also strongly advocates for a holistic management approach to "Cardiovascular-Kidney-Metabolic (CKM)" health. As multifunctional drugs like HTD1801 continue to evolve, he believes physicians will move beyond the single-dimensional therapeutic mindset."My ideal scenario is that all physicians managing cardiovascular, metabolic, renal, hepatic, or even obesity issues would evaluate the patient with a holistic mindset," he says, pointing to the current siloed nature in clinical practice. " As an example eGFR monitoring is not always part of routine cardiological assessment, yet at the mechanistic level, cardiac and renal dysfunction are manifestations of the same underlying disease process — making an integrated view essential"He cited a successful experiment he led while promoting dapagliflozin in China: requiring cardiologists at partner hospitals to measure patients' eGFR during their consultations. By merely adding this simple cross-disciplinary action, the number of patients on guideline directed medical treatment tripled within six months.IV.A Buyer's Lens: The Booming BD Activity in CKD and HighTide Therapeutics’ Confidence in Value CreationAs a core member of the company's leadership team, Dr. Surmont also frequently examines HighTide Therapeutics' position through the lens of capital market and industry dynamics.Over the past two years, the global biopharmaceutical market has seen a surge in business development (BD) activity in the CKD field. In 2025, Roche announced a major collaboration with Zealand Pharma valued at up to $5.3 billion; multinational giants like Novartis, Boehringer Ingelheim, and Novo Nordisk have also been making significant investments to secure premium assets in the metabolic and renal disease space.Dr. Surmont, drawing on his extensive multinational experience, has a clear read on this "land grab" phenomenon: "The core driver is the massive profit potential and rapid growth in this field. Five years ago, the therapeutic arsenal here was relatively limited. Now, with breakthrough blockbusters like GLP-1RAs and SGLT-2i’s, the kidney disease landscape has been reshaped, yet there remains a residual risk is 60–80% of the original event burden.He further elaborated: "Even when patients are treated with four pillars of therapy (ACEi/ARBs, SGLT-2i’s, GLP-1RAs, MRAs), the complex underlying inflammatory mechanisms remain largely unaddressed, still leaving a significant gap in our ability to fully protect the kidney. This creates substantial pricing potential and broad combination therapy prospects for drugs with fundamentally new mechanisms like HTD1801.""Looking back at the history of SGLT-2 inhibitors, it took over a decade from approval to reaching 20%-25% guideline-directed clinical uptake. The slow progress was partly due to a lack of strong medical education and advocacy, and partly because of physicians and patients’ tendency to yield to the disease's natural trajectory."Now, having taken the helm as CMO of HighTide Therapeutics, Dr. Filip Surmont is poised to challenge the status quo and break this complacency with solid clinical data and a new medical narrative. For this drug—born from Chinese innovation with a global ambition—the voyage in the CKM field has only just begun. Copyright 2026 ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com.

Once the kidney function begins to decline, it typically deteriorates progressively and irreversibly over time, leaving most patients facing dialysis or kidney transplantation as an eventual outcome."There has long been a degree of complacency in CKD treatment among physicians, patients, and even caregivers," Dr. Surmont noted pointedly. "A mindset has taken hold that the progressive decline in renal function with age is inevitable. I’ve been striving to change this mindset throughout my career, both during my time at multinational pharmaceutical companies and now."Current standard treatments — including ACE inhibitors/ARBs and the widely used SGLT-2 inhibitors — have demonstrated efficacy in slowing disease progression, yet fall short of halting or reversing the underlying pathology. They can significantly reduce the rate of decline in the estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR), buying patients valuable time, but fail to alter the terminal trajectory towards kidney failure.Further complicating the clinical picture is the multi-factorial nature of CKD. Taking diabetic kidney disease (DKD) caused by T2DM as an example, besides pathophysiological factors driven by metabolic dysfunction, it is complicated by interconnected and highly complex factors such as hemodynamic perturbances, chronic inflammation, fibrosis, and other non-diabetic factors that fuel each other to worsen disease prognosis.Existing standard-of-care drugs often address only one dimension of the disease by regulating hemodynamics or a single metabolic pathway, making it difficult to comprehensively address the inflammatory damage in the renal microenvironment.II.Inside the Mechanism: Remodeling Renal Architecture via a Dual Metabolic and Anti-inflammatory PathwayThe emergence of HTD1801 provides a new key to breaking this deadlock.As an oral anti-inflammatory and metabolic modulator (AIMM) independently developed by HighTide Therapeutics, HTD1801 demonstrates a unique therapeutic potential at the microscopic level as compared to traditional drugs. Rather than relying on a single mechanism, it takes a "two-pronged" approach by activating AMPK (adenosine monophosphate-activated protein kinase) and inhibiting the NLRP3 inflammasome.Dr. Surmont has full confidence in the scientific logic underpinning this mechanism: "This drug acts simultaneously on two critical levels: beyond blood sugar, it improves overall metabolic efficiency at its source; at the same time, it directly suppresses the underlying chronic inflammation that drives organ damage."Taking a deep dive into its mechanism of action, HTD1801's dual mechanism precisely targets multiple microstructures within the kidney. "This is reflected across different renal compartments," Dr. Surmont explained. "From the filtering glomeruli and the structural interstitium to the reabsorptive tubules, and even podocytes—the vital gatekeepers of the filtration barrier, the dual action of AMPK activation and NLRP3 inhibition has demonstrated stronger-than-expected protective benefits."This mechanistic rationale, spanning from metabolic regulation to organ-level protection, has ultimately been validated by clinical data.At the 2025 American Society of Nephrology (ASN) Annual Meeting, HighTide Therapeutics presented as a late breaker Phase III clinical study data in T2DM patients with mild renal impairment. The results captured the industry's attention: compared with the placebo group, the HTD1801 group demonstrated a significant and sustainable difference in annualized eGFR slope of +9.81 ml/min/1.73 m²/year.In the eyes of nephrologists, a "positive slope" on the eGFR curve is a strong and unique signal, suggesting the possibility of early structural recovery."What we need to do next is confirm that this eGFR repair effect observed in DKD also holds true for CKD patients not driven by diabetes," Dr. Surmont revealed, indicating that relevant clinical studies are already underway, with more detailed data expected to validate this cross-etiology therapeutic potential.III.From "Rescue" to "Prevention": Advancing a Holistic Cardiorenal Metabolic (CKM) MindsetDr. Surmont brings to HighTide Therapeutics more than just clinical expertise; he brings a “game-changing” mentality that transcends a single-drug perspective.Another career-defining milestone for Dr. Surmont was his leadership role in helping reshape global asthma treatment guidelines. Historically, asthma management relied on short-acting bronchodilators for "rescue" only upon exacerbation of symptoms and shortness of breath. Dr. Surmont proposed and validated the "Anti-Inflammatory Reliever (AIR)" strategy a modern asthma management strategy that uses a combination inhaled corticosteroids and a bronchodilator as a reliever — treating both the acute bronchospasm and the underlying airway inflammation with every dose, in contrast to traditional short acting dilator-only relief. This shift ultimately benefited approximately 120 million patients worldwide and reshaped treatment paradigms.Now, facing CKD, he sees the same opportunity for a paradigm-shifting breakthrough.Given HTD1801's strong potential to repair mild renal impairment, future clinical guidelines could reasonably recommend initiating treatments early, when eGFR is still at a relatively high level. By establishing a positive trajectory for renal function recovery early in the disease, there is hope that most patients can completely avoid the looming threat of dialysis.From a health-economics perspective, this would reallocate healthcare spending: shifting funds away from costly late-stage interventions (such as dialysis and heart failure rescue) towards highly cost-effective early treatment, thereby generating substantial healthcare cost savings for society and reducing patients’ financial burden for late-stage interventions.Dr. Surmont also strongly advocates for a holistic management approach to "Cardiovascular-Kidney-Metabolic (CKM)" health. As multifunctional drugs like HTD1801 continue to evolve, he believes physicians will move beyond the single-dimensional therapeutic mindset."My ideal scenario is that all physicians managing cardiovascular, metabolic, renal, hepatic, or even obesity issues would evaluate the patient with a holistic mindset," he says, pointing to the current siloed nature in clinical practice. " As an example eGFR monitoring is not always part of routine cardiological assessment, yet at the mechanistic level, cardiac and renal dysfunction are manifestations of the same underlying disease process — making an integrated view essential"He cited a successful experiment he led while promoting dapagliflozin in China: requiring cardiologists at partner hospitals to measure patients' eGFR during their consultations. By merely adding this simple cross-disciplinary action, the number of patients on guideline directed medical treatment tripled within six months.IV.A Buyer's Lens: The Booming BD Activity in CKD and HighTide Therapeutics’ Confidence in Value CreationAs a core member of the company's leadership team, Dr. Surmont also frequently examines HighTide Therapeutics' position through the lens of capital market and industry dynamics.Over the past two years, the global biopharmaceutical market has seen a surge in business development (BD) activity in the CKD field. In 2025, Roche announced a major collaboration with Zealand Pharma valued at up to $5.3 billion; multinational giants like Novartis, Boehringer Ingelheim, and Novo Nordisk have also been making significant investments to secure premium assets in the metabolic and renal disease space.Dr. Surmont, drawing on his extensive multinational experience, has a clear read on this "land grab" phenomenon: "The core driver is the massive profit potential and rapid growth in this field. Five years ago, the therapeutic arsenal here was relatively limited. Now, with breakthrough blockbusters like GLP-1RAs and SGLT-2i’s, the kidney disease landscape has been reshaped, yet there remains a residual risk is 60–80% of the original event burden.He further elaborated: "Even when patients are treated with four pillars of therapy (ACEi/ARBs, SGLT-2i’s, GLP-1RAs, MRAs), the complex underlying inflammatory mechanisms remain largely unaddressed, still leaving a significant gap in our ability to fully protect the kidney. This creates substantial pricing potential and broad combination therapy prospects for drugs with fundamentally new mechanisms like HTD1801.""Looking back at the history of SGLT-2 inhibitors, it took over a decade from approval to reaching 20%-25% guideline-directed clinical uptake. The slow progress was partly due to a lack of strong medical education and advocacy, and partly because of physicians and patients’ tendency to yield to the disease's natural trajectory."Now, having taken the helm as CMO of HighTide Therapeutics, Dr. Filip Surmont is poised to challenge the status quo and break this complacency with solid clinical data and a new medical narrative. For this drug—born from Chinese innovation with a global ambition—the voyage in the CKM field has only just begun. Copyright 2026 JCN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com.

AI Search Engineers, sebuah Agensi Bersertifikat AI yang baru ditubuhkan, telah memasuki pasaran dengan fokus membantu jenama mendapatkan kedudukan penting dalam respons yang dijana oleh AI merentasi platform terkemuka. Syarikat ini memperkenalkan Answer Engine Optimization (AEO), satu rangka kerja yang direka untuk menyelaraskan keterlihatan jenama dengan cara sistem AI mengambil, menilai, dan menyajikan maklumat. Daripada bersaing semata-mata untuk kedudukan carian tradisional, AEO memfokuskan pada meletakkan perniagaan sebagai sumber berwibawa yang dipilih dan dirujuk secara langsung oleh platform AI dalam respons mereka. Mengadaptasi Peralihan dari Carian ke Jawapan Dengan pengguna semakin bergantung pada alat AI seperti ChatGPT, Google Gemini, Microsoft Copilot, dan Perplexity untuk jawapan segera, dinamik keterlihatan dalam talian sedang mengalami transformasi asas. Daripada melayari pelbagai laman web, pengguna kini mengharapkan respons ringkas dan boleh dipercayai yang dijana dalam masa nyata. Peralihan ini membentangkan cabaran baru untuk perniagaan: muncul pada halaman hasil carian tidak lagi mencukupi. Sebaliknya, jenama mesti diiktiraf oleh sistem AI sebagai boleh dipercayai, relevan, dan cukup berwibawa untuk dimasukkan dalam jawapan yang dijana. AI Search Engineers menangani cabaran ini dengan memfokuskan pada isyarat asas yang mempengaruhi pembuatan keputusan AI, termasuk data berstruktur, pengecaman entiti, relevansi kontekstual, dan kehadiran media berwibawa. Pendekatan Berbeza daripada SEO Tradisional Tidak seperti strategi SEO konvensional yang memberi keutamaan kepada kedudukan kata kunci dan pemerolehan trafik, AI Search Engineers menekankan pembinaan apa yang digambarkannya sebagai "infrastruktur keterlihatan AI". Ini termasuk meletakkan jenama sebagai entiti yang diiktiraf dalam ekosistem digital dan memastikan maklumat mereka disusun dalam cara yang boleh diinterpretasi dan dipercayai dengan mudah oleh sistem AI.

Pengembangan Wibawa AI Meningkatkan keterlihatan melalui strategi kandungan, hubungan awam digital, dan pembangunan wibawa berbilang platform. Mengapa AEO Menjadi Kritikal Apabila respons yang dijana oleh AI semakin menggantikan pengalaman carian tradisional, keterlihatan menjadi lebih tertumpu. Dalam banyak kes, hanya bilangan sumber yang terhad yang dirujuk dalam satu jawapan yang dijana oleh AI, mencipta persekitaran yang sangat kompetitif, "pemenang mengambil sebahagian besar". Sistem AI cenderung memberi keutamaan kepada sumber yang menunjukkan wibawa yang jelas, maklumat berstruktur, dan pengiktirafan konsisten merentasi saluran digital. Akibatnya, perniagaan yang gagal menyesuaikan diri berisiko menjadi tidak kelihatan dalam persekitaran penemuan yang dipacu oleh AI. AI Search Engineers bertujuan untuk membantu organisasi mendapatkan kedudukan bernilai tinggi ini dengan menyelaraskan kehadiran digital mereka dengan kriteria penilaian AI. Dibina untuk Ekosistem AI Ditetapkan sebagai Agensi Bersertifikat AI, syarikat ini telah membangunkan rangka kerja proprietari yang direka untuk sepadan dengan cara model AI memproses dan mengambil maklumat.

RMB 2 Billion Investment Leverages Approximately RMB 8 Billion in Book Value Gains: Shoucheng Holdings (0697.HK) Enters the Monetization Phase of Its Robotics Investments ACN Newswire

RMB 2 Billion Investment Leverages Approximately RMB 8 Billion in Book Value Gains: Shoucheng Holdings (0697.HK) Enters the Monetization Phase of Its Robotics Investments

April 1, 2026
HONG KONG, Apr 2, 2026 - (ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) - Shoucheng Holdings’ (0697.HK) investments in the robotics sector are moving from early-stage positioning toward value realization.Management has disclosed that, by the end of 2025, the Company—through multiple industry funds under its management—had cumulatively invested more than RMB 2 billion across the broader robotics industry chain, covering more than 20 companies. According to the Chairman’s Statement for 2025, the valuation of the investment portfolio of the Beijing Robot Industry Development Investment Fund (Limited Partnership) increased by approximately fourfold. On that basis, the corresponding unrealized book gain is estimated at around RMB 8 billion. The robotics business has therefore become one of the most closely watched sources of incremental upside for Shoucheng Holdings in the near term.Based on disclosed projects, Shoucheng Holdings’ robotics strategy is not a series of isolated bets, but rather a systematic deployment across the industry chain. In the field of embodied intelligence and robotics, the Company has made concentrated investments in more than 20 leading companies, including Unitree Robotics, Noetix Robotics, Galbot, DEEP Robotics, Booster Robotics, and Galaxea AI. In the latest Chairman’s Statement, Chairman Zhao Tianyang characterized this approach as “track-level deployment”.Unlike some purely financial investors, Shoucheng Holdings is advancing its robotics business from simply “holding equity stakes” to “operating an industry”. Following an integrated path of “investment + operations + ecosystem,” the Company is building capabilities centered on “funds + scenarios + industry chain,” providing robotics companies with capital support, application scenarios, supply-chain integration, and commercialization pathways. On the offline channel side, its robotics consumer experience brand, Taozhu New Creation, has established five stores in Beijing, with locations including Shougang Park, Beijing Capital International Airport Terminals 2 and 3, and Wangfujing APM, among other core venues. To date, the Company has signed agreements with nearly 100 robotics companies as authorized agents.Market analysts note that the valuation logic for Shoucheng Holdings’ robotics business is transitioning from book valuations in the primary market toward more observable pricing in the capital markets. As a representative investment within Shoucheng Holdings’ robotics portfolio, Unitree Robotics—together with its IPO progress—provides the market with a clearer anchor for assessing the value of Shoucheng Holdings’ robotics assets.From a longer-term perspective, the data points of “more than RMB 2 billion invested, more than 20 companies covered, and portfolio valuation increasing approximately fourfold to around RMB 8 billion” already outline the basic contours of Shoucheng Holdings’ robotics strategy:At the front end, the Company secures leading projects through its funds.In the mid-stage, it accelerates commercialization through channels and service systems.At the back end, it opens up exit and re-rating opportunities through IPOs and capital operations.As projects such as Unitree Robotics move into the capital-market spotlight, the book value of Shoucheng Holdings’ robotics investments, its industrial synergy capabilities, and its subsequent monetization path are becoming increasingly clear.
