Amboss and Aureo Connect the Lightning Network to Mexico’s Banking System

Mexico City, Mexico, September 9th, 2026, FinanceWire

Businesses and individuals anywhere in the world can now send payments that arrive as pesos in a Mexican bank account in seconds

Amboss Technologies, the payments platform that connects businesses to instant, global payments, and Aureo, the Mexican platform that converts Lightning payments directly into peso bank deposits, today announced an integration that links the global Lightning Network to Mexico’s banking system end to end.

Until now, the Lightning Network’s instant settlement stopped at the edge of Mexico’s financial system. With this integration, any business using Amboss Payments can route funds to an Aureo Lightning address and have them arrive as Mexican pesos in a bank account via SPEI, Mexico’s interbank transfer system, in seconds. A customer pays in bitcoin over the Lightning Network, and the recipient in Mexico receives pesos in their bank account without touching an exchange.

Lightning payments have become increasingly popular, with a reach of more than 900 million users globally through exchange apps including Coinbase, Binance, and Cash App. For businesses, Lightning payments cost less than traditional payment cards and settle instantly and finally, with no chargeback risk, making them an attractive supplement to card processing.

The timing reflects a large and underserved market. The United States and Mexico traded an estimated $872 billion in goods in 2025, making Mexico America’s largest trading partner, yet most cross-border business payments still move on slow and costly correspondent banking rails.

With Amboss and Aureo connected, a Mexican business can accept Lightning payments from customers across the United States and globally, hold balances in bitcoin, USDT, or USDC to manage treasury, and move funds to their Mexican bank account whenever they choose.

“Payment rails between the US and Mexico were designed decades ago, and businesses on both sides of the border pay for that every day,” said Jesse Shrader, CEO and Co-Founder of Amboss Technologies.

With Aureo, a Mexican business can accept payments from more than 900 million people through the apps they already use, at a lower cost than card processing, with no chargebacks, and receive pesos in its bank account within seconds. But the opportunity goes beyond accepting payments: Mexican and international businesses can also use the same infrastructure to send pesos to suppliers, contractors, workers, or any other recipient with a Mexican bank account. That is what modern cross-border settlement should look like.

Mexican businesses have always been ready to sell to the world. What they lacked was a payment rail that matched their ambition,” said Gustavo Flores, CEO and Founder of Aureo. “By connecting to Amboss, we make it possible for any business in Mexico to accept instant payments from customers anywhere and receive pesos directly in its bank account, fully compliant with Mexican regulations. Through Aureo’s Direct to Bank feature, a business only needs to set up an Aureo Lightning address once and link it to its Mexican bank account. From that point on, incoming Lightning payments are automatically converted and deposited as pesos, removing the complexity of creating and paying individual Lightning invoices. This is the missing link between the global economy and the Mexican banking system.

The integration is live today. Aureo appears in the Destinations and Integrations sections of the Amboss Payments app, where users can direct incoming payments to any Aureo Lightning address. Aureo operates in full compliance with Mexican regulatory requirements, including KYC verification for all users.

Spyder Moving and Storage launches a 30-day challenge for stress-free relocations

Mississippi, USA, Sep 09, 2026, ZEX PR WIRE — Most people wait too long to start packing. Spyder Moving and Storage, based in Oxford, Mississippi, says the biggest source of moving day stress is not the move itself. It is the four weeks before it.

Vladyslav Ladygin, owner of Spyder Moving and Storage, built the company around the idea that a move goes smoothly when the plan is broken into small pieces instead of one big weekend scramble. The 30-day challenge is the company’s attempt to put that thinking into a format anyone can follow, whether they hire movers or not.

“A move feels overwhelming when it’s one giant task,” Ladygin said. “It stops feeling that way once you break it into thirty small ones.”

What the challenge covers

The plan runs in four blocks, each covering about a week:

Days 1 to 7: Sort and decide. Go room by room and separate items into keep, donate, and toss. Spyder Moving and Storage recommends starting with closets and garages, since those tend to hold the most items nobody has touched in a year.

Days 8 to 14: Gather supplies and set a budget. This includes boxes, tape, and padding, along with a firm number for what the move should cost. The company suggests getting a written estimate early so there are no surprises later.

Days 15 to 21: Pack the rooms used least. Guest rooms, storage areas, and seasonal items go first. Kitchens and bedrooms wait until closer to moving day, since those stay in use the longest.

Days 22 to 30: Confirm logistics and pack the essentials. This is the week to confirm the moving date, arrange parking or elevator access, and pack a separate bag with the things needed for the first night in the new place.

Built from the company’s own jobs

Spyder Moving and Storage says the plan reflects patterns the company sees on actual moves, not a generic template. Every step in the plan maps to a problem the company has run into on jobs: families who packed the kitchen too early and had nowhere to cook, or households that waited until the last week to start and ran out of boxes.

The company plans to publish the full day-by-day checklist through its channels so households can follow along without needing to hire a mover first. Ladygin said the goal is for the plan to work whether Spyder handles the move or a family does it themselves.

“We built this company to make moving less stressful,” Ladygin said. “That doesn’t have to depend on whether someone books us.”

A plan for local families too

Spyder Moving and Storage works with households across Oxford and the surrounding area, and the company says the same 30-day approach applies to local moves as well as longer ones. A move across town still benefits from the same early sorting and early packing, even if the truck ride is short.

The company also supports several local and regional causes, including Move for Hunger, pet shelters, and the Denver Children’s Foundation, and treats the 30-day plan as part of the same idea: give people a clear, usable resource rather than a vague promise.

How to follow along

Spyder Moving and Storage will share the checklist in stages over the next month, timed to match the four blocks of the plan. Households that want to start now can begin with the sort-and-decide phase, since that step works no matter when moving day falls.

The company said it built the plan to be simple enough to start today and specific enough to actually follow through day 30.

Lily and Lime Offers Tips for Including Beloved Pets in Wedding Photography Without Disrupting the Celebration

San Francisco, California, Sep 09, 2026, ZEX PR WIRE — Lily & Lime is sharing practical guidance for couples who want to include their beloved pets in wedding photography while keeping the celebration comfortable, organized, and enjoyable for everyone involved. The wedding photography company highlights thoughtful planning, realistic expectations, and a flexible approach as key factors in creating meaningful images with dogs and other family pets.

For many couples, pets are more than companions. They are part of the family and have shared important moments with them long before the wedding day. Including a dog, cat, or another beloved animal in selected wedding photographs can create personal memories that reflect the couple’s life together. At the same time, pets can be unpredictable, making preparation particularly important when photography is taking place alongside a busy wedding schedule.

Lily & Lime recommends that couples first consider their pet’s personality and comfort level before deciding how prominently to feature the animal on the day. A pet that enjoys meeting new people and remaining in unfamiliar surroundings may be comfortable participating in several photographs. A more nervous or energetic animal may be better suited to a short appearance during a planned portion of the day.

Choose a Specific Photography Window

Rather than having a pet remain involved throughout the entire celebration, couples can designate a short period specifically for photographs. This approach allows the photography team to concentrate on capturing the interaction while giving the pet a clear beginning and end to its participation.

A planned photography window can also make coordination easier for the wedding party. Once the pet has completed its photographs, a trusted person can take responsibility for the animal while the couple continues with the ceremony, reception, and other activities.

Assign a Dedicated Pet Handler

Lily & Lime also recommends selecting someone other than the couple to be responsible for the pet during the wedding. A trusted friend, family member, professional pet sitter, or designated handler can manage feeding, bathroom breaks, transportation, and any unexpected situations.

Having a dedicated handler allows the couple to remain focused on the celebration rather than worrying about where their pet is or what it is doing. The handler can also help position the pet for photographs and communicate with the photography team when the animal is ready.

Prepare for Unpredictable Moments

Pets rarely follow a perfectly planned script, and Lily & Lime encourages couples to embrace that reality. A dog looking away from the camera, becoming distracted by guests, or showing excitement at the wrong moment can create an image that feels more authentic than a perfectly posed portrait.

Instead of expecting every photograph to be flawless, couples can allow room for spontaneous interactions. These unscripted moments may capture the pet’s personality and the genuine relationship between the animal and its owners.

Consider the Environment

The setting should also be considered before bringing a pet into wedding photographs. Outdoor locations may offer more space for movement, while crowded indoor venues can create additional challenges. Couples should consider temperature, noise, unfamiliar surroundings, other animals, and the availability of a quiet area where the pet can rest.

The photography schedule should account for these circumstances, particularly if the pet will be participating during an outdoor portion of the wedding.

Keep the Couple at the Center of the Story

While pets can add personality to wedding photographs, Lily & Lime emphasizes that they should complement rather than dominate the visual story of the day. A carefully selected series of photographs can document the pet’s role in the couple’s life while leaving plenty of time for portraits, family photographs, ceremony moments, and candid celebrations. By planning and coordinating with their photography team, couples can create space for their pets without letting the additional logistics overshadow the wedding itself.

Lily & Lime provides wedding photography services designed to capture both the planned and unexpected moments that make each celebration personal. The company encourages couples to communicate their priorities to their photography team before the wedding so that the people, details, and relationships that matter most receive appropriate attention throughout the day.

For couples who consider their pets part of the family, including them in wedding photography need not complicate the celebration. With a realistic plan, a dedicated handler, and flexibility when the unexpected happens, pets can become a natural part of the wedding story and provide couples with photographs they can continue to value long after the celebration ends.

Modcon Advances Oxygen Measurement with MOD 1040 In Situ Analyzer

Modcon Systems’ MOD-1040 In-Situ Oxygen Analyzer provides fast, direct oxygen measurement for hydrogen and other demanding process gas applications. Using optical technology, it measures from 1 ppm to 100% O₂, operates at pressures up to 350 barg, and delivers T90 response below 5 seconds. By measuring directly in the process, the MOD-1040 can reduce the need for complex sample extraction and conditioning systems, improving response time while reducing maintenance and potential leak points. The analyzer is ATEX/IECEx Zone 1 and SIL 2 certified, with automatic pressure and temperature compensation for changing process conditions.

London, United Kingdom, 9th Sep 2026 – Modcon Systems Ltd., a developer of advanced process analyzers and industrial optimization technologies, is advancing oxygen measurement for hydrogen, natural gas, refining and other process industries with its MOD-1040 In-Situ Optical Oxygen Analyzer.

The MOD-1040 is designed to measure oxygen directly at the process measurement point, reducing the need for conventional sample extraction and conditioning systems. This approach can provide faster visibility of changing oxygen concentrations while reducing sample tubing, pressure regulators, filters and other components associated with extractive analyzer systems.

Using optical luminescence-quenching technology, the MOD-1040 provides continuous oxygen measurement from 1 ppm to 100% O₂, operates at process pressures up to 350 barg (5,076 psi) and provides a T90 response time of less than five seconds.

Addressing the Challenges of Hydrogen Measurement

Fast and reliable oxygen measurement is particularly important in hydrogen production, compression, storage and transportation. Oxygen contamination can affect hydrogen purity and, at elevated concentrations, become a significant process safety concern.

In electrolyzer applications, monitoring oxygen in the hydrogen stream can also provide early indication of abnormal gas crossover conditions.

Traditional extractive analyzer systems typically remove a gas sample from the process, reduce its pressure and transport it to an analyzer. For high-pressure hydrogen applications, this may require additional tubing, regulators, valves and sample handling equipment.

The MOD-1040 enables oxygen measurement directly at process pressure, simplifying the measurement architecture and reducing sample transport delays and potential leak points.

Automatic Compensation for Process Conditions

Direct process measurement requires the analyzer to account for changing operating conditions. The latest MOD-1040 design supports automatic pressure and temperature compensation, using external process signals to correct the oxygen measurement as operating conditions change.

The analyzer also provides Modbus RTU communication and Bluetooth connectivity for commissioning, calibration and diagnostics.

Different wetted-material configurations are available for demanding process environments, including 316/316L stainless steel, Nickel 200/201, Inconel 625 and Hastelloy C276.

Designed for Hazardous Process Applications

The MOD-1040 is ATEX, ECASEx and IECEx certified for Zone 1 hazardous areas and SIL 2 certified, supporting its use in critical hydrogen, hydrocarbon and industrial gas applications.

Beyond hydrogen, the analyzer can be applied to natural gas, refinery and petrochemical gases, flare gas, biogas, renewable natural gas and industrial gas production, where rapid detection of oxygen can support process control, gas quality and operational safety.

Moving Oxygen Measurement Closer to the Process

As industrial plants increasingly rely on real-time process data for automation, safety systems, digital twins and Industrial AI, the speed and quality of measurement are becoming increasingly important.

The MOD-1040 reflects Modcon’s approach of moving analysis closer to the process itself. Rather than bringing the process sample to the analyzer, the analyzer is brought directly to the process.

About Modcon Systems

For more than 50 years, Modcon Systems Ltd. has supported process industries with online analyzers, advanced process control and real-time optimisation technologies. Today, Modcon provides process analyzers, integrated analyzer solutions and Modcon.AI Industrial AI technologies for hydrogen, refining, petrochemicals, natural gas, industrial gases and other continuous process industries.

CMS: Initial Prescriptions for Silevimig Injection, the World’s First Bispecific Antibody Against Rabies, Issued in China

SHENZHEN, CHINA – On 9 September, China Medical System Holdings Limited (867.HK/8A8.SG) (“CMS” or the “Group”) is pleased to announce that the initial prescriptions for the Class 1 innovative drug Silevimig Injection (the “Product”) have recently been issued in multiple hospitals across China, including Beijing Luhe Hospital of Capital Medical University, Wenzhou People’s Hospital, Kaiping Central Hospital, Dongguan Guangji Hospital and Huidong Jilong Ankang Hospital. This marks that the world’s first bispecific antibody for passive immunization against rabies has officially commenced its large-scale clinical application, offering a better solution for urgent post-exposure management against rabies in China.

 

Dual-Epitope Neutralization with Low Dosing, Addressing Clinical Pain Points

Silevimig Injection is the world’s first fully human bispecific antibody targeting dual epitopes (G protein epitopes I and III) of the rabies virus, which is consistent with the World Health Organization (“WHO”) recommendation for a “cocktail” therapeutic paradigm. It can effectively neutralize different viral strains or genotypes of the rabies virus, providing immediate protection before the establishment of full protection by active rabies vaccination, and building a critical line of defense against viral infection.

 

The Product is currently the passive immunization product with the smallest dose for rabies (0.05 mg/kg); compared with human rabies immune globulin (“HRIG”), it requires less injection volume and easier administration, which can effectively reduce pain and improve compliance for patient. Manufactured using recombinant technology, the Product is non-plasma-derived and carries no risk of blood-borne infections. It can be manufactured at scale through standardized and stable processes, with controllable production costs, while offering a single active ingredient, consistent quality and minimal batch-to-batch variability. These advantages open up new possibilities for improving the safety, standardized supply and patient accessibility of rabies passive immunization products, with the potential to further increase market penetration.

 

Initial Prescriptions Issued Within About Two Months After Approval, Academic-Driven Commercialization Platform Accelerating Value Realization

Silevimig Injection was approved for marketing in China in June 2026. Following the approval, CMS worked closely with its partner Genrix Bio to advance critical workstreams including drug supply, market access and academic promotion, while integrating expert networks and market resources. The inital prescriptions were issued in China within approximately two months, accelerating the translation of innovation outcomes into a clinically accessible new treatment option.

 

Currently, CMS has nine commercialized innovative drugs that are progressively achieving large-scale clinical application across China, accelerating the realization of the clinical value of each quality medicine. Going forward, CMS will remain focused on clinical unmet needs and continue to build a differentiated innovative product portfolio through a dual-track system of in-house R&D and collaborative R&D, accelerating accessibility of quality innovative drugs and taking concrete action to safeguard patients’ lives and health.

 

About Rabies

Rabies is an acute zoonotic disease caused by RABV, clinically characterized by aerophobia, hydrophobia, pharyngeal muscle spasms and progressive paralysis[1], with a case-fatality rate approaching 100%. At present, there is no proven treatment for rabies once clinical symptoms appear. Standardized post-exposure management, comprising wound care, vaccination and passive immunization administered as needed, remains the most effective strategy[2]. As vaccine-induced antibodies require 1-2 weeks after the first dose of vaccine injection to reach protective levels, passive immunization provides immediate coverage [1].

 

According to the National Technical Guidelines for the Rabies Exposure Prophylaxis (2023 Edition), patients with Category III exposure, patients with confirmed Category II exposure involving severe immunodeficiency, and patients with Category II exposure involving wounds to the head or face while the health status of the offending animal cannot be determined should receive passive immunization at the same time as the first dose of rabies vaccine[3]. In China, more than 40 million people are exposed to rabies annually, of whom approximately 40% fall under Category III exposure[1]. However, due to factors such as limited awareness, high price, and restricted accessibility, only about 15% of Category III cases receive passive immunization[1]. Currently, the primary passive immunization option in China is HRIG. However, HRIG must be sourced from healthy donors, making it difficult and costly to obtain. Furthermore, it carries potential risks of blood-borne infections. This has led to a low penetration rate of passive immunization products in China.

 

More Information about Silevimig Injection

In a Phase III clinical trial in adults in China, Silevimig Injection met its primary efficacy endpoint, demonstrating non-inferior protective efficacy compared with HRIG, the currently most used passive immunization product in China. The Product provides immediate protection during the early stages of rabies virus exposure without compromising the active immune response induced by vaccination. In addition, a Phase III clinical trial in children and adolescents aged 2 to <18 years is currently ongoing in China. The Product has been granted a patent in China.

 

In September 2025, the Group through subsidiaries of the Company entered into an Exclusive Collaboration Agreement (the “Agreement”) with Chongqing Genrix Biopharmaceutical Co., Ltd. In accordance with the Agreement, the Group has obtained exclusive commercialization rights for the Product in mainland China and exclusive licensing rights for the rest of the Asia-Pacific region, the Middle East and North Africa. The collaboration term extends until ten years after the Product receives the marketing approval in Mainland China (the “Initial Term for the Product”). Unless terminated or dissolved under the terms set forth in the Agreement, the Agreement will automatically renew for successive ten-year periods upon expiration of the Initial Term for the Product.

Ekiden Launches Canton Network’s First Order Book-Based Derivatives Exchange

Lisbon, Portugal, September 9th, 2026, FinanceWire

Ekiden, the first order book-based derivatives exchange, brings institutional-grade execution, private trading workflows, and on-chain settlement to the Canton ecosystem. 

The launch adds a professional execution layer to Canton’s growing financial ecosystem, enabling market participants to trade and settle derivatives on-chain using infrastructure designed around the requirements of institutional markets. 

Ekiden is built for professional trading firms, market makers, funds, banks, and institutional trading desks that require execution workflows closer to traditional capital markets than to retail-focused decentralized finance venues. 

The platform combines a central limit order book, or CLOB, with request-for-quote execution, PropAMM integration, a professional trading terminal, and API connectivity for market makers, algorithmic trading platforms, aggregators, exchanges, and funds. 

Ekiden also provides a streamlined entry point into the Canton ecosystem, allowing professional market participants to onboard, connect through its API, and begin trading without having to build their own Canton-native infrastructure.

Canton Network provides a privacy-enabled and interoperable environment for regulated financial markets, allowing institutions to coordinate transactions without making commercially sensitive information publicly visible. Ekiden extends that environment into derivatives trading by bringing execution, liquidity, and settlement together within a single venue. 

“Ekiden’s mainnet is a notable addition to Canton’s application layer, bringing order book execution, privacy, and settlement into a single venue designed for professional trading,” said Viv Diwakar, Head of the Canton Foundation. “Launches like this act as a catalyst as the network broadens its offerings in on-chain derivatives, and we look forward to seeing a range of venues and participants contribute to that growth over time.”

According to a 2026 Coinbase and EY survey, 73% of institutional decision-makers plan to increase their digital asset allocations. Supporting this growth requires reliable execution, liquidity, price discovery, privacy, and infrastructure capable of handling institutional order flow.

“Tokenization alone does not create institutional markets,” said Vitali Dervoed, founder and CEO of Ekiden. “For tokenized assets to trade at scale, institutions need execution quality, liquidity, privacy, and workflows that reflect how professional trading actually works. Canton provides the institutional environment. We add the trading infrastructure layer for on-chain derivatives.” 

Existing on-chain trading venues have largely developed around retail participation, passive liquidity pools, and public execution environments. Professional trading firms have different requirements, including deterministic execution, low-latency API access, configurable privacy, and the ability to manage positions and capital movements without exposing commercially sensitive information to the wider market. 

Ekiden’s architecture is intended to address these requirements while preserving the operational benefits of on-chain settlement. The platform allows the lifecycle of a derivatives transaction from price discovery and execution through to settlement to take place within Canton’s privacy-enabled environment. 

During its first week on the Canton testnet, Ekiden recorded 1,502 active users, more than 72,000 trades, and approximately $8.9 million in trading volume. The company is working with 11 integration partners and has integrated 12 market makers ahead of its expansion on mainnet. 

Initial liquidity is supported by market makers, including Keyrock, Kappa Lab, and Flowdesk. Ekiden plans to add further liquidity providers, onboard more institutional participants, and expand the range of derivatives available through the platform. 

In May 2026, Ekiden raised $2 million in seed financing to develop institutional-grade infrastructure for on-chain derivatives. The round included investors and strategic participants connected to GSR, Flowdesk, Pyth, Aptos, G20, DCF God, Curiosity Capital, and Keyrock. 

The mainnet launch strengthens Canton Network’s position as infrastructure for institutional digital markets by adding a dedicated venue for derivatives execution and settlement. It also broadens the range of financial activity that can take place across the network while maintaining the privacy and workflow controls required by professional market participants.

Ekiden Launches Canton Network’s First Order Book-Based Derivatives Exchange

Lisbon, Portugal, September 9th, 2026, FinanceWire

Ekiden, the first order book-based derivatives exchange, brings institutional-grade execution, private trading workflows, and on-chain settlement to the Canton ecosystem. 

The launch adds a professional execution layer to Canton’s growing financial ecosystem, enabling market participants to trade and settle derivatives on-chain using infrastructure designed around the requirements of institutional markets. 

Ekiden is built for professional trading firms, market makers, funds, banks, and institutional trading desks that require execution workflows closer to traditional capital markets than to retail-focused decentralized finance venues. 

The platform combines a central limit order book, or CLOB, with request-for-quote execution, PropAMM integration, a professional trading terminal, and API connectivity for market makers, algorithmic trading platforms, aggregators, exchanges, and funds. 

Ekiden also provides a streamlined entry point into the Canton ecosystem, allowing professional market participants to onboard, connect through its API, and begin trading without having to build their own Canton-native infrastructure.

Canton Network provides a privacy-enabled and interoperable environment for regulated financial markets, allowing institutions to coordinate transactions without making commercially sensitive information publicly visible. Ekiden extends that environment into derivatives trading by bringing execution, liquidity, and settlement together within a single venue. 

“Ekiden’s mainnet is a notable addition to Canton’s application layer, bringing order book execution, privacy, and settlement into a single venue designed for professional trading,” said Viv Diwakar, Head of the Canton Foundation. “Launches like this act as a catalyst as the network broadens its offerings in on-chain derivatives, and we look forward to seeing a range of venues and participants contribute to that growth over time.”
