NEW YORK, USA, September 8, 2023/EINPresswire.com/ — BlackRock plans to acquire Voyager Digital, deepening its layout in the encryption field.
According to industry insiders. in the past month, BlackRock has completed the first round of due diligence on Voyager Digital, an encryption platform that has filed for bankruptcy. The two parties are in negotiations regarding the current sale of the assets and shares of the bankrupt entity and have reached a preliminary acquisition intent.

In the future,once the acquisition plan is finalized, Voyager will become BlackRock first acquisition in the cryptocurrency field. This represents not only a strategic move into the cryptocurrency sector but also preparation for the lengthy Bitcoin ETF application process.It bears great significance for the entire cryptocurrency market.

As an asset management giant, BlackRock has currently made more than 200 investments and acquisitions around the world, all in the traditional financial and technology fields.This acquisition of a company in the encryption field is the first time in history, although the details of the acquisition negotiations have not been made public. but it also triggered a series of speculations from the outside world.

Since applying for the Bitcoin ETF, BlackRock has already made it clear that it will enter the field of crypto asset management,but the operation of digital assets needs to meet a series of compliance conditions,such as digital asset custody and trading licenses,MSB (money service business),MTL (money transmission) license).

At the same time,Voyager Digital has a crypto brokerage license,which can directly provide BlackRock with a complete set of forward-looking conditions required to operate crypto asset business, helping to quickly promote crypto business in the United States.

Prior to this,Voyager Digital was the largest crypto brokerage platform in the United States.However,due to the collapse of the 3AC fund,the company had to deal with a severe liquidity crisis and filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy last July. During the bankruptcy process that lasted for more than a year,Voyager went through two acquisition plans proposed by FTX and Binance,and finally withdrew due to internal reasons of the other party.

After the agreement broke down,Voyager started asset liquidation work,has completed the first round of return of assets to creditors,and entered the final stage of bankruptcy proceedings.During this process, the liquidation debtors have repeatedly stated that they are discussing the feasibility of selling platform assets with multiple relevant parties in an effort to return as many assets as possible to creditors.
According to a previous statement by the creditors committee on Twitter,the platform will be sold as a whole, which also means that Voyager will have the opportunity to rebuild its brand value based on the resumption of operations.value on the basis of resuming operations.

Compared to the previous two sales, BlackRock’s influence is undoubtedly substantial. It is conceivable that EDXMarkets, launched by traditional financial giants such as Fidelity Investments and Citadel Securities, has completely revolutionized the cryptocurrency exchange mechanism.

Will BlackRock leverage Voyager Digital to bring about new changes in the traditional trading broker model within the encryption field? This remains uncertain…

As of the current press time, Voyager’s official website indicates that the liquidation debtor will revamp the website page in September to provide creditors with updates on the progress and status of bankruptcy cases.

Erik’s Curiosa and Carde.io Partnership Creates Best-in-Class Social Play Program for Sorcery TCG Retailers, Players, and Collectors

AUSTIN, TEXAS, UNITED STATES, September 8, 2023/EINPresswire.com/ — Erik’s Curiosa, the creative force behind Sorcery TCG, today announced a strategic partnership with Carde.io, the leader in Organized Play and Retail Enablement software for the tabletop gaming industry. The partnership will enable Erik’s Curiosa to deliver a world class social play program for Sorcery TCG retailers, players, and collectors.

The Sorcery Play Network, powered by Carde.io technology, will seamlessly integrate with Curiosa.io, Sorcery TCG’s card database and deckbuilding platform, to provide Sorcery TCG fans a one-stop digital companion experience for the Sorcery TCG. The technical integration between Curiosa.io and the Sorcery Play Network is scheduled to coincide with the launch of the highly anticipated Sorcery TCG Beta release.

“We are delighted to announce our partnership with Carde.io to expand on our vision of social play for brick-and-mortar stores,” said Simon Swan, Director of Operations, Erik’s Curiosa. “After successful trials at GenCon this year, we were keen to press ahead with the adoption of the Carde.io platform to streamline store sign up, event creation and management, registration, and even player metrics and achievements.”

“At its heart, Sorcery is not designed to be a dedicated competitive experience, the game fully supports casual playstyles too. Embracing both aspects is what we call social play, where the fun features first.” Simon added “That doesn’t mean stores and players don’t require the best possible tools to manage their communities and support their enjoyment of the game. The Carde.io team’s direct involvement means we can accelerate our plans and help Sorcery reach its full potential when we release in stores worldwide in November.”

“The Carde.io team is thrilled to work with the team at Erik’s Curiosa as they seek to enable their retailers with our industry leading organized play and retail enablement platform,” said Chris Sheridan, Chief Executive Officer, Carde.io. “The Erik’s Curiosa team has displayed an affinity for data in their business and game management processes, so we’re especially excited to see how Carde.io’s data platform can shape the ongoing development of Sorcery TCG.”

“The metaverse is not a replacement of the real world but an augmentation of the varied identities we already inhabit. As we create more immersive, interoperable and pandemic proof experiences in the digital space, we still believe in the transformative power of human capital. We should never underestimate the value of a firm handshake and a genuine smile across the room. The best ideas in the world begin with a simple hello,” says Loretta Chen, Co-Founder and CEO of Smobler.

“It is important to show how the metaverse is an extension of our physical world where anyone can be creative and make connections in an inclusive virtual space to learn new skills and prepare themselves for future jobs in the digital economy. The NOVA phygital experience organized by Smobler in the heart of IMDA’s PIXEL demonstrates how Singapore is participating in this digitization movement and creating a blueprint for others to follow,” says Sebastien Borget, COO and Co-Founder of The Sandbox.

NOVA will commence with a performance led by Andy Benjamin Cai, a veteran dancer who was chosen as the Chief Choreographer for the Singapore National Day Parade 2017 and 2022. He says, “Loretta gave me my first big break into professional theater fifteen years ago. She is known for exploring new artistic expressions, pushing the boundaries of creativity with intention, imagination and fun! I am ecstatic to pay it forward with budding creators and experimental technology!”

There will be a panel discussion moderated by Chen on “Trust Matters: Building in a Broken World”, joined by Borget, Alexandre Lemarchand, Vice President of Global Sales of Ledger, Lenna Onto, Founder and CEO of Clay Nation and Sandy Carter, COO of Unstoppable Domains.

Carter, who recently launched her book “The Tiger and The Rabbit: Harnessing the Power of the Metaverse, Web3, and AI for Business Success, A Business Fable” will share valuable lessons on digital identity, community, and data ownership as well as conduct a book signing.

“This event is powerful as it brings together the ecosystem. The power of digital identity in Web3 is a transformative force when embraced collectively by partners and users. It is the cornerstone that builds trust, enables secure interactions and empowers individuals to take control of their online presence.” Adds Sandy Carter, COO of Unstoppable Domains, “Together, we are not just navigating the digital frontier; we are shaping it, forging a path towards a more decentralized, secure, and user-centric online world.”

Another highlight of the event is the exhibition of Light and Brilliance (光宗耀祖) by Singaporean artist y/x and the launch of its digital equivalent in The Sandbox. y/x whose real name is Chua Koon Beng is also CEO of Spa Esprit Group, one of Singapore’s best known lifestyle companies,
