Ex-Singapore Parliamentarian’s Swiss Company Launches Swiss Franc and Euro Stablecoins

Singapore investor and former parliamentarian Calvin Cheng has announced that his wholly-owned, newly rebranded Swiss company, Anchored Coins AG (“Anchored Coins”), will be issuing two stablecoins – a Euro-backed stablecoin AEUR, and a Swiss Franc-backed stablecoin ACHF. Both stablecoins will be backed 1-to-1 by their respective fiat currencies and held in Swiss banks. The stablecoins will be issued on the Ethereum and BNB Chain public blockchains.

Earlier this year, the company was granted membership in the Swiss VQF, which means it has to comply with Swiss anti-money laundering obligations.

Calvin Cheng, Chairman of Anchored Coins said, “Switzerland has very clear regulatory guidelines for the issuance of stablecoins. The reputation of Swiss banks is also second to none. There is a clear need for stablecoins to be pegged to currencies other than the US Dollar, given the regulatory uncertainty in the US. I feel this is the right time and right place, to launch highly compliant stablecoins in two other well-regarded global currencies, the Swiss Franc, and the Euro.”

Cheng further added that his company will comply with the European Union’s new Markets in Crypto Assets (“MiCA”) regulations once they come into effect in 2024.

Anchored Coins announced a partnership with DCS Card Centre (“DCS”) in Singapore. Formerly known as Diners Club Singapore, DCS is a 50-year-old financial institution that pioneered the issuance of credit cards in the Republic. Through this collaboration, DCS will accept ACHF and AEUR as a form of collateral placement for credit limits on its cards, thereby enhancing the value and utility of both stablecoins.

Karen Low, CEO of DCS said, “We believe that stablecoins are crucial in bridging digital assets to traditional finance. DCS aims to lead the charge on connecting Web2 and Web3 with integrated payment experiences that are co-created through partnerships. We are proud to partner with Anchored Coins in providing immediate value to their stablecoin holders by using ACHF and AEUR as collateral for instant credit limits on the cards we issue. We currently offer a choice of cards from global payment networks including Diners Club International, Mastercard, UnionPay and soon, Visa.”

Anchored Coins is in the process of launching, and will only be available to institutional partners during the first phase of its development. The company is also in advanced discussions with major digital asset exchanges to be listed.

ABOUT CALVIN CHENG

Calvin Cheng is currently the Republic Of Serbia’s first Honorary Consul to the Republic of Singapore. Cheng was a former appointed Member of Singapore’s Parliament, and a Young Global Leader of the World Economic Forum.

Cheng is a serial entrepreneur, formerly the President of Elite Models for Asia, as well as a director of Singapore’s largest luxury events management company Lumina. He was most recently Chairman of Australia Stock Exchange (ASX)-listed EdTech firm ReTech Technology Co, which he led to an Initial Public Offering, together with leading investors from China, including several co-founders of Alibaba, and other Chinese tech companies.

ABOUT DCS CARD CENTRE

DCS Card Centre Pte Ltd (“DCS”), formerly known as Diners Club Singapore is a financial institution governed by the Monetary Authority of Singapore (MAS) under the Banking Act to carry on the business of issuing credit cards or charge cards in Singapore. Established in 1973, DCS was amongst the founding institutions that pioneered cashless payments with its first series of credit and charge cards in Singapore.

As part of its name change in October 2022, the financial institution embarked on a massive business transformation to expand its network of payments schemes and new payment solutions. Along with a set of new shareholders and a leadership team helmed by industry veterans, DCS has since achieved remarkable milestones. These include an expansion of schemes from just Diners Club International to include Mastercard, UnionPay and Visa, as well as the launch of new solutions such as D-Vault, a feature for cardholders to seamlessly aggregate their assets through funds transfers and digital assets for instant spend limits, and a whole new DCS cards app that enables several card management services to ease customer convenience.

Prontoblock and Mercantile Bank International Partner to Modernize the $1.25 Trillion Commercial Paper Market Through Tokenization

Prontoblock, a leading digital asset fintech company, is pleased to announce its strategic partnership with Mercantile Bank International (MBI). This partnership aims to revolutionize the commercial paper market through the tokenization of these financial instruments.

This partnership will empower MBI clientele to engage in the purchase and issuance of tokenized commercial paper using Prontoblock’s cutting-edge digital assets platform. Prontoblock will collaborate closely with issuers to identify the most suitable commercial paper instruments for tokenization.

The outstanding value of U.S. commercial paper exceeded $1.25 trillion at the end of 2022. Commercial paper works like fixed-income investments but tends to have rates higher than Treasuries with similar maturities, and even higher than bank savings deposit rates. Of the $1 billion in assets Prontoblock plans to tokenize by Q2 2024, $250 million will be high grade commercial paper.

Prontoblock’s digital asset platform is revolutionizing investment opportunities such as hedge funds, private equity, fixed income and commercial paper. Leveraging the power of blockchain technology and smart contracts, the platform tokenizes financial assets issued by its clients, streamlining investment processes and enhancing operational efficiency.

Leveraging its strong track record of enabling clients to participate seamlessly in the digital asset realm, MBI offers high-quality, high-yield, and liquid short-term instruments such as commercial paper that generate attractive risk-adjusted returns.

Bill Gleason, CEO of Prontoblock, commented, “MBI, with its robust presence in the US digital asset space, is an ideal partner as they routinely generate excess liquidity and are in search of high-quality, short-term liquid instruments to invest their short-term liquidity and generate an attractive risk-adjusted return.”

Bo Collings, CEO of MBI, echoed the sentiment, “Our alliance with Prontoblock perfectly aligns with our strategic vision. Tokenizing commercial paper allows us to provide a diverse array of investment opportunities to our clients while facilitating their access to liquidity. Through leveraging our advanced blockchain technology stack, we are poised to enhance client investment capabilities, yielding exceptional outcomes while meticulously adhering to US securities regulations.”

By taking proactive measures to ensure that their financial solutions are compliant with relevant laws and regulations, both MBI and Prontoblock are solidifying their status as trusted partners for their global clientele, ensuring that their financial interests are safeguarded within the bounds of regulatory frameworks. As digital asset adoption and regulatory compliance regulations evolve, both companies remain committed to ensuring clients can navigate the complexities of the digital assets landscape with confidence.

“BREATHE! Convention is spearheading the creation of the world’s largest communal NFT, an embodiment of the future,” said Shawn Willis, our CEO and Founder. “This unique venture stands as a testament to the power of Web3 ethos, harnessing the strength of the community.”

Famed Photographer David Christopher Lee to Give Away NFTs of Iconic Photos Over the Month of June

Celebrity photographer David Christopher Lee announced giveaways of several iconic photos turned NFTs over the month of June – including one of Kim Kardashian. This NFT giveaway is part of the launch of Illuminate Art, an executive talent management service for experienced artists who understand the significance of having a digital presence and virtual community.

“Increasing access to art and finding innovative ways to engage with a virtual community were driving forces in my decision to turn several of my celebrity portraits into NFTs,” said David Christopher Lee. “These giveaways expand opportunities for collectors to own works that represent a moment in our pop culture consciousness.”

To participate in these giveaways, follow David Christopher Lee (@davidchristopherlee) and @illuminate.art_ on instagram, and tag three friends on an @illuminate.art_ post. Ten winners will be selected for each of the NFT giveaways throughout the month of June.

Klaus Moeller will also be providing exclusive access to photos in his digital archive of over 20 million iconic celebrity photos. Initially a fine art photographer, Klaus began acquiring archives of celebrity photos such as his acquisition of rare vintage negatives from RKO studio.

“Celebrity images are as timeless as NFTs, and NFTs have also changed the way we collect and interact with art,” Klaus Moeller said. “Fusing the concepts of art, celebrity and NFTs seemed like a natural fit with the white-label NFT agency illuminate.art. Through this partnership, we are providing NFTs with pop art elements of cinematic legends Audrey Hepburn, Brigitte Bardot and Jane Fonda.”

Post-impressionistic painter Sari Esserman also provided pieces for the launch of illuminate.art.

“NFTs deconstruct the idea of how people view, engage with and own art, which is why I was excited to participate in this cataclysmic evolution in creative expression,” Sari Esserman said.

Illuminate’s software provides a smooth sales experience for the customer. Illuminate is one of the rare NFT platforms to provide customer service while also featuring a highly accessible platform for new NFT buyers including a Venly wallet upon registration. To further improve customer satisfaction and reduce a barrier to entry, Illuminate absorbs the cost of gas when minting an NFT for the customer.

Throughout the month of June, four digital collectibles of celebrities will be tied to access to four different portraiture classes taught by David Christopher Lee.

Collectors of four David Christopher Lee celebrity portraits will also receive an invite to an exclusive Hollywood red carpet celebrity event through a collaboration with Hollywood Film and Television Producer and Actress Darcy Donavan. This event is connected to multi-million-dollar films produced in conjunction with the #CryptoQueen’s own NFT Project, StarDawgs. In exchange, collectors who hold one of Darcy Donavan’s exclusive, “Director” StarDawgs NFTs will receive an hour and a half photoshoot with David Christopher Lee.

“In both of our respective projects, we offer inherently valuable NFTs backed with incredible IRL utilities. Through this partnership with Illuminate, we are showcasing NFTs that open educational, professional and personal doors,” Darcy Donavan said.

Established artists Peter Halasz, Saxon Chang, Sari Esserman, and George Mullen will also be participating in the Illuminate.art launch and will be releasing more art pieces. Klaus Moeller will also be providing access to photos in his digital archive of iconic celebrity photos.

These portraits kick off the launch of Illuminate.art. In contrast to NFT platforms that are like an Ebay or Instacart for artists, Illuminate is an executive talent management service for experienced artists who understand the significance of having a digital presence and virtual community. Illuminate works hand in hand with artists with a variety of services including social media post creation, public relations, and gallery placements. Illuminate guarantees that the physical and digital artworks complement each other and builds brand value and recognition for the artist.

Illuminate‘s software provides a smooth sales experience for the customer. Illuminate is one of the rare NFT platforms to provide customer service while also featuring a highly accessible platform for new NFT buyers including a Venly wallet upon registration. To further improve customer satisfaction and reduce a barrier to entry, Illuminate absorbs the cost of gas when minting an NFT for the customer.
