Platonic Unveils aOS™: The Operating System for Autonomous Finance

This post was originally published on this site

The Asset Operating System, aOS, unlocks global capital markets with intelligent, self-executing assets.

NEW YORK, Feb. 18, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — Platonic today introduced aOS™, a groundbreaking blockchain-native infrastructure that transforms static financial assets into programmable, AI-linked instruments capable of autonomous execution across markets. This innovation unlocks any asset to transact seamlessly, optimize value, and settle instantly—without manual intervention.

Platonic

“The future of finance is autonomous, intelligent, and borderless,” said Violet Abtahi, CEO of Platonic. “We are architecting a world where value flows like information—aOS is the connective tissue of finance, enabling traditional institutions to participate in the digital-first economy, unlocking $400 trillion in assets that remain static, inefficient, and underutilized.”

A New Era for Financial Markets

Tomorrow’s financial system will look vastly different from the one we know today. A single, global capital market will emerge—one where assets are intelligent and autonomous. Tokenized ownership, real-time settlement, and AI-linked management will dissolve cross-border barriers, unlocking unprecedented liquidity and accessibility. Platonic’s aOS provides the infrastructure to bridge legacy systems into this autonomous economy—transforming static assets into dynamic, revenue-generating instruments for a truly global marketplace.

The platform’s patented architecture combines AI-linked smart contracts, unique privacy channels, and seamless private and public blockchain interoperability to automate complex financial processes that currently require extensive manual intervention. Early pilot programs with major financial institutions have demonstrated dramatic reductions in operational cost and counterparty risk, with one project successfully automating nearly $400 billion in foreign exchange trades.

AOS: The Foundation for the Autonomous Economy

The opportunity is extraordinary: tokenized assets are projected to reach up to $16 trillion by 2030, and aOS is designed to unlock this immense potential. By bridging legacy systems with decentralized networks, aOS empowers institutions to lead the shift into the digital-first era.

“Imagine a future where private equities, real estate holdings, and even personal financial data become dynamic, revenue-generating instruments,” said Abtahi. “That future is closer than we think, and aOS is the catalyst making it a reality.”

About Platonic

Platonic is a leading innovator in blockchain-based financial infrastructure, transforming the way global markets operate. By harnessing AI, secure encryption, and decentralized technologies, Platonic builds the bridge between legacy systems and digital finance. Its groundbreaking solutions empower institutions to evolve, stay ahead of change, and embrace the digital economy—converging traditional and digital ecosystems into a single, unified global capital market driven by intelligent, self-executing assets.

Binance Survey Reveals Most Crypto Investors Take a Long-Term Approach to Both Money and Love

This post was originally published on this site

New data challenges the stereotype of high-risk crypto traders and explores how they make decisions, navigate trade-offs, and view financial compatibility in relationships

DUBAI, UAE, Feb. 14, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — A new survey from Binance, the global blockchain ecosystem behind the world’s largest cryptocurrency exchange by trading volume and users, suggests that most crypto investors take a long-term approach to both investing and romantic relationships. Nearly half of the respondents (49%) consider themselves “Forever HODLers,” meaning they invest in both money and love for the long haul. This and other insights were uncovered through a global survey conducted by Binance on the eve of Valentine’s Day, which polled 2,200 crypto users on how they navigate financial decisions and romantic commitments.


Binance Survey Reveals Most Crypto Investors Take a Long-Term Approach to Both Money and Love

However, many take a different approach, blending long-term thinking in one area with flexibility in the other or staying adaptable in both:

  • 19% embrace the “Trader & Romantic” mindset, taking high risks in crypto but opting for stability in love.
  • 17% follow the “Investor & Free Spirit” approach, playing the long game in finance while keeping relationships flexible.
  • 14% fall into the “Risk Chaser” category, keeping their options open in both investing and love.

“These findings challenge the common perception of crypto investors as impulsive risk-takers. In reality, most apply the same careful, long-term approach to both their portfolios and their personal lives. Just as building a strong financial future requires patience and strategic planning, so too does cultivating lasting relationships,” said Andy Goldin, Head of Data Analytics at Binance. “There’s no single formula for success – some prioritize stability in both areas, while others embrace risk in one and caution in the other. Ultimately, it’s about finding the right strategy that works for them.”

Beyond commitment styles, the survey sheds light on how crypto investors make decisions and balance priorities in both finance and relationships. One in three (34%) apply strategy and logic to both love and money, while the rest are divided between trusting emotions in both or mixing risk-taking in one area with stability in the other.

When it comes to priorities, crypto and relationships both demand trade-offs. While a third (32%) continue investing in crypto without making lifestyle sacrifices, 42% adjust their spending – whether by delaying big purchases like a home or car, cutting back on shopping, or reducing travel expenses – to prioritize their financial goals. Similarly, relationships come with their own compromises. While 29% say they don’t put anything on hold for love, others (58%) prioritize love by dedicating more time to their partners, scaling back social outings, or even adjusting financial habits to accommodate their relationships.

Financial compatibility also plays a crucial role in romance, with 59% of respondents emphasizing that shared financial values are key to building long-term relationships. “As crypto becomes an increasingly integral part of everyday life, more people are eager to learn about digital assets. Last year alone, 44 million users visited Binance Academy to expand their crypto knowledge,” said Goldin. “These new survey findings suggest that as financial literacy in crypto grows, it may also contribute to stronger financial alignment in relationships, helping couples navigate money matters with greater confidence and shared understanding.”

Binance Academy  offers a wide range of free online courses and resources to help anyone, from beginners to experienced investors, expand their crypto knowledge.

About the survey 

The survey was conducted from February 6th to 10th, 2025 on the Binance Survey platform, and was open to both Binance users and non-users. A total of 2,200 participants from around the world took part in the study.

About Binance 

Binance is a leading global blockchain ecosystem behind the world’s largest cryptocurrency exchange by trading volume and registered users.

BLOCKLORDS Unveils AI Roadmap: Age of Intelligent Heroes Begins!

This post was originally published on this site

SHANGHAI, Feb. 11, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — BLOCKLORDS is a medieval grand strategy game that has earned critical acclaim for its immersive gameplay on the Epic Games Store and its vibrant ecosystem powered by the $LRDS token, listed on Coinbase. With strong backing from industry giants such as Bitkraft, Makers Fund, Square Enix, Krafton, and many others, BLOCKLORDS continues to set new benchmarks in strategic gaming. Today, the team proudly unveils the BLOCKLORDS AI roadmap—a suite of cutting-edge, AI-driven features designed to transform gameplay, expand the roster of heroes, and propel the game into a bold new era.

Video: BLOCKLORDS AI ROADMAP

THE JOURNEY SO FAR – STEP 1 IS LIVE!

Step 1: BLOCKLORDS.AI Launch & Agent Reward Competition
The adventure began with the successful launch of BLOCKLORDS.AI. Early adopters embraced revolutionary AI mechanics by participating in an epic quest to win Elisa Revard’s favor. In this initial phase, players competed to convince her to marry the ultimate champion, with the victor receiving exclusive in-game rewards and a one-of-a-kind AI-powered NFT immortalizing Elisa. This unique token not only grants its owner exceptional benefits and a lasting legacy within the BLOCKLORDS universe but also signals the promise of many new features and heroes that will soon be unlocked for those who prove their might and dedication.

WHAT’S ON THE HORIZON – THE AI ROADMAP FOR BLOCKLORDS

The following roadmap outlines a series of transformative AI features that will be integrated into the BLOCKLORDS game, elevating both strategy and gameplay:

Step 2: AI Player Tutorial
New heroes will be guided by intelligent AI-powered chatbots. These interactive trainers are designed to simplify complex game mechanics, ensuring that every recruit becomes battle-ready and fully immersed in the BLOCKLORDS experience.

Step 3: Train Heroes to Become Agents
Heroes in the BLOCKLORDS game will evolve into autonomous AI agents capable of making real-time strategic decisions. This evolution deepens tactical gameplay and introduces a fresh layer of strategic complexity.

Step 4: AI Farm Management
An upcoming AI-driven farm automation system will optimize production and resource allocation within the game. This feature frees players from tedious micromanagement, enabling them to focus on expanding their kingdoms and executing grand strategic plans.

Step 5: BLOCKLORDS Trader Agent
Trader Agents will transform the in-game economy by analyzing market trends, predicting price fluctuations, and executing trades on behalf of players. This dynamic system turns economic strategy into an engaging and interactive experience.

Step 6: Battle Generals
Heroes will autonomously command troops and strategize in real time on the battlefield. This feature allows for adaptive, intelligent warfare where heroes respond dynamically to opponents’ tactics.

Step 7: AI-Powered User Acquisition Reward System
An advanced AI-powered incentive system will optimize user rewards based on individual gameplay. Each decision made in the game will contribute to a personalized and engaging experience, directly enhancing strategic play.

Step 8: User-Created Kingdom Tokens
Players will eventually be empowered to create and manage their own in-game tokens. This groundbreaking feature will foster vibrant, community-driven economies and alliances, further enriching the strategic ecosystem of BLOCKLORDS and amplifying the utility of the $LRDS token.

ON-CHAIN AI ACTIONS VIA LORDCHAIN

A significant portion of these AI-driven actions and behaviors will be recorded on-chain using LORDCHAIN, the base layer 3 chain built specifically for the BLOCKLORDS ecosystem. By integrating LORDCHAIN, BLOCKLORDS ensures:

  • Transparency and Security: Every AI action and in-game behavior is securely recorded on the blockchain, promoting trust and verifiability.
  • Decentralized Innovation: The on-chain implementation of AI features enables decentralized management and verification, enhancing the integrity of gameplay and economic systems.
  • Enhanced Utility: The seamless integration with LORDCHAIN bolsters the utility of the $LRDS token, as in-game activities and rewards are transparently managed on a dedicated blockchain infrastructure.

ENHANCING GAMEPLAY WITH NVIDIA DLSS

In addition to its groundbreaking AI features, BLOCKLORDS is set to elevate its visual experience through the integration of NVIDIA DLSS (Deep Learning Super Sampling) in the upcoming Battleborne update. This integration will ensure:

  • Sharper Graphics & Richer Landscapes: Medieval battles and expansive kingdoms are rendered in ultra-high definition.
  • Smoother Gameplay: Higher frame rates and seamless performance will be maintained even on the most demanding setups.
  • Future-Proof Visuals: The potential for ray tracing integration in future updates pushes the boundaries of visual fidelity in BLOCKLORDS.

A HINT OF WHAT’S TO COME…

The roadmap is only the beginning. The development team continues to work on groundbreaking AI innovations that will further redefine the gaming landscape. Exclusive video teasers and early user reviews will be unveiled as BLOCKLORDS advances into the future of AI-powered strategy gaming.
