WeSalute Launches National Recognition Program for Nurses

Texas, USA, Oct 14, 2026, ZEX PR WIRE — WeSalute, the nation’s first service recognition platform, is proud to announce the launch of its Nurses program the week of January 12. The initiative honors nurses as the heart and hands of healthcare, offering secure verification, exclusive benefits, and meaningful financial empowerment to the professionals who dedicate their lives to caring for others.

“For years, nurses have told us that recognition feels fleeting — a simple thank-you at the end of a long shift,” said a WeSalute spokesperson. “We built WeSalute to make recognition daily and tangible. Nurses deserve a system that acknowledges their service, safeguards their credentials, and delivers real financial relief.”

Why This Matters Now

Nurses face extraordinary demands every day. From twelve-hour shifts that often stretch longer, to life-and-death decisions made in moments, their work is critical — yet often under-recognized. At the same time, healthcare professionals are exposed to identity theft and data risks when seeking workplace discounts and benefits online.

WeSalute’s program addresses these challenges by creating secure, verified access to exclusive savings and life resources — including prescriptions, travel, insurance, and retail — while protecting nurses’ personal and professional credentials.

A Platform Built for Real Recognition

WeSalute pioneered service recognition platforms over 25 years ago, starting with military members and veterans. Today, that same platform is expanding to healthcare heroes, offering:

  • Secure verification: Nurses use their WeSalute+ ID Card to access offers without exposing personal credentials.

  • Real financial relief: Members save an average of $1,200+ annually through benefits across healthcare, travel, retail, and more.

  • A community of gratitude: Access to over 300 partners, including major travel, technology, and lifestyle brands that recognize the value of nurses’ service.

“The goal is simple: recognition that is meaningful, consistent, and secure,” said the WeSalute spokesperson. “Nurses don’t need symbolic gestures — they need a system that delivers practical benefits while acknowledging the critical service they provide every day.”

How the Public and Partners Can Support Nurses

WeSalute encourages businesses, communities, and individuals to take actionable steps that support nurses year-round:

  1. Offer consistent appreciation — beyond holidays and Nursing Week, show regular acknowledgment of their contributions.

  2. Promote verified benefits — partner with trusted platforms like WeSalute to protect nurses’ credentials and ensure access to legitimate offers.

  3. Build supportive communities — connect nurses to local and professional networks that value their service.

  4. Align your brand with a mission — partners gain the “Halo Effect” by demonstrating social responsibility and commitment to healthcare heroes.

  5. Share verified resources — help nurses navigate benefits safely and avoid scams.

A Movement Toward Meaningful Support

With the launch of the Nurses program, WeSalute is expanding its mission from military service recognition to honoring all groups who serve the public, starting with healthcare professionals. By providing secure, everyday recognition and tangible benefits, the platform sets a new standard for how society thanks those who give so much of themselves.

“Our vision is clear: create a system where nurses are respected, protected, and rewarded every day,” said the spokesperson. “Recognition shouldn’t be seasonal. It should show up where it matters most — in the moments that count for them.”

Call to Action

The Nurses program opens the week of January 12, with free enrollment and the option to upgrade to WeSalute+ for exclusive benefits. Nurses and healthcare professionals are encouraged to sign up for the WeSalute newsletter to receive early access and notifications for launch offers.

“Support doesn’t have to be grandiose,” said the spokesperson. “It’s in the everyday actions — recognition, protection, and meaningful benefits that make a real difference. That’s the WeSalute promise.”

About WeSalute

Founded in 2000, WeSalute (formerly Veterans Advantage) is the nation’s first service recognition platform delivering respect, recognition, and rewards for active duty military, veterans, and their families. Through secure ID verification, exclusive partnerships, travel protection, and community-driven support, WeSalute has helped redefine modern service appreciation for over 25 years.

The Next Era of Prediction Markets: How Minti Markets is Using Copy Trading to Drive Mainstream Adoption

London, United Kingdom, Oct 14, 2026, ZEX PR WIRE — Prediction markets have officially crossed the chasm. Driven largely by the explosive growth of platforms like Polymarket, what was once a niche experiment for crypto enthusiasts has evolved into a global truth engine. Today, political analysts, economists, and everyday news consumers are looking to prediction markets not just to participate, but to understand real-time sentiment on everything from global elections to pop culture.

But as the spotlight on these platforms brightens, a significant structural barrier has emerged: the sheer friction of participation.

Unlike traditional passive investing, where you can buy an index fund and look away for a decade, prediction markets are ruthlessly active. They require continuous monitoring, deep domain expertise, and the ability to make split-second decisions as news breaks. For the average user who has a day job and cannot afford to stare at probability charts 24/7, the barrier to entry is exhaustingly high.

This is the exact friction point that Minti Markets is attempting to solve by introducing a proven fintech concept—copy trading—to the prediction market ecosystem.

The Shift from Trading to Curation

In traditional finance and cryptocurrency trading, platforms like eToro popularized the idea that you don’t need to be an expert trader to participate; you just need to be able to identify one. Minti Markets is applying this same logic to prediction platforms, starting with Polymarket.

The premise is elegantly simple: Every participant on the blockchain leaves a public, unforgeable track record of their predictions, right or wrong. Minti aggregates these transparent on-chain records, allowing users to browse through the histories of top-performing forecasters across different categories—whether it’s sports, geopolitics, or economics.

Instead of betting on the outcome of a specific event, users effectively “bet” on the analysts who have a proven history of getting it right.

Automated Execution, Sovereign Control

What makes Minti’s approach compelling is how it balances automation with risk management. When a user finds a forecaster they trust, they don’t simply hand over their funds. Operating on a non-custodial architecture, Minti allows users to set strict, personalized budget caps.

Once a follow is initiated, Minti’s infrastructure automatically mirrors the expert’s eligible positions within the user’s account, scaled to their specific budget. If the forecaster makes a move at 3:00 AM, the user’s portfolio reacts accordingly without them needing to be awake to hit a button. And because the platform is non-custodial, users retain ultimate control of their wallets, with the ability to pause or sever the connection at any time.

Why This Matters for the Broader Ecosystem

For prediction markets to truly become a mainstream financial and informational primitive, they cannot be restricted to professional traders and insomniacs. By automating the execution layer and focusing the user experience on curation rather than trading, Minti Markets is building a critical piece of infrastructure.

It transforms prediction markets from a high-stress, active-trading environment into a more accessible, strategic ecosystem. As global events continue to accelerate, the platforms that succeed will be the ones that allow users to leverage collective intelligence without sacrificing all of their free time. Minti is betting that copy trading is the key to that future.

Frank Lauletta on the Warning Signs Business Owners Miss Before Legal Trouble Starts

Pennsylvania, USA, Oct 14, 2026, ZEX PR WIRE — Frank Lauletta has spent his career advising companies across software, healthcare, manufacturing, energy, and professional services. Across those industries, he says the businesses that avoid expensive legal problems are rarely the ones with the most lawyers on retainer. They are the ones that notice small warning signs before those signs become big ones.

“By the time a shareholder dispute reaches a courtroom, the real problem usually started years earlier,” Frank says. “Someone saw it coming and didn’t act on it.”

Sign One: Contracts That Were Never Built to Repeat

A lot of companies grow using whatever agreement worked the last time. Sales terms get copied from one deal to the next, with small edits here and there. Frank says this is one of the clearest signs a business has outgrown its own paperwork.

“If every contract looks a little different, that’s not flexibility. That’s risk sitting in a drawer,” he says. Standardized sales agreements, licensing terms, and terms of use exist for a reason: they remove ambiguity before a negotiation starts, not after it goes wrong.

Sign Two: A Founder Who Is the Only Plan

Frank often works with business owners who built something successful but never wrote down what happens if they step back, sell, or pass the business to someone else. He treats this as a warning sign worth taking seriously, not a distant concern.

“Succession planning isn’t about assuming the worst,” Frank says. “It’s about making sure the business doesn’t depend on one person being available forever.” Companies that wait until a transition is already underway tend to make rushed decisions. Those decisions are harder to unwind than the ones made early.

Sign Three: Disagreements Among Owners That Get Smoothed Over Instead of Resolved

Shareholder disputes rarely start as disputes. They start as disagreements that two partners decide not to put in writing because the relationship feels fine for now. Frank has represented clients on both sides of these situations, including in litigation when a disagreement could not be resolved another way.

“The owners who come to me early, before a disagreement hardens into a position, almost always have more options,” he says. “Once people stop talking and start preparing for a fight, the choices narrow fast.”

Sign Four: Outside Counsel Who Only Hears From You When Something Breaks

Frank frequently serves as outside general counsel to companies, working alongside executive teams on decisions that shape where a business is headed. He says one sign a company is managing legal risk poorly is simple: its lawyer only hears from them after a problem has already happened.

“If the first call I get is the crisis call, we’ve already lost time we didn’t need to lose,” Frank says. “Legal strategy works best when it’s part of the conversation before a deal closes, not after.”

Sign Five: Growth That Outpaces the Agreements Behind It

Fast growth is good news until the paperwork underneath it stops matching the business. Royalty structures, licensing models, and joint venture agreements that made sense at one size can create real exposure at another. Frank says this is a sign that gets missed often, because growth itself feels like proof that everything is working.

“A company can be doing everything right on the business side and still be carrying agreements that don’t fit anymore,” he says. “That gap is where problems start.”

What These Signs Have in Common

None of these signs are dramatic on their own. A copied contract, an unwritten succession plan, a disagreement nobody addressed. Frank says the pattern that connects them is timing: each one is cheap to fix early and expensive to fix late.

“My job isn’t to wait for the fire,” he says. “It’s to help a business notice the smoke.”

Bybit Expands Beyond Crypto as CEO Outlines Next Phase of Financial Platform

Dubai, United Arab Emirates, October 13th, 2026, Chainwire

Bybit Co-founder and CEO Ben Zhou has outlined the latest stage of the company’s expansion from a crypto exchange into The New Financial Platform, highlighting new products and collaborations across traditional and digital markets. 

The updates were presented during Bybit’s latest biannual “Keynote with Ben” session titled “Make Your Move”, where Ben discussed the convergence of financial markets and the company’s approach to building for that shift. Held outside the usual studio format, in a gathering with a live audience, the keynote brought Ben together with selected guests to discuss changes in the financial landscape, new technologies and the products shaping Bybit’s next phase.

Four Years of TradFi Expansion, With Stocks Now Live and mStocks Ahead

Four years after entering traditional finance with contracts for difference (CFDs) in 2022, Bybit has established itself as the largest crypto CFD platform, with trading volume reaching as much as $100 billion at its peak. On Oct. 12, the company expanded further into traditional markets with the launch of stock trading for eligible users, providing access to more than 1,000 U.S. stocks and ETFs. Users can trade using USDC, with fractional shares and 24/5 access covering U.S. pre-market, regular and after-hours sessions.

Bybit is also developing mStocks in collaboration with Mantle, with a targeted launch in November. The tokenized stock product is designed to be backed 1:1 by real stocks, with plans to support round-the-clock conversion between eligible stocks and mStocks on Bybit, as well as decentralized exchange trading through automated market maker (AMM) liquidity pools on Mantle. Converted mStocks are also expected to be transferable into Bybit’s Unified Trading Account (UTA) for use as trading collateral, subject to applicable terms and conditions.

Bybit launched IPO Express in June, giving eligible users access to selected IPO opportunities at the offering price through tokenized representations of the underlying securities. The service launched with SpaceX and is designed to extend Bybit’s access beyond secondary-market trading into selected primary-market opportunities.

The latest developments build on Bybit’s expansion into perpetuals, pre-market products, foreign exchange and options. Its TradFi offering now spans more than 600 products across equities, ETFs, indices, commodities and FX. TradFi perpetuals have recorded more than $180 billion in trading volume, while recent additions include Forex Perps and Perp Options, an industry-first options product built on TradFi perpetuals.

Bybit is continuing to develop new perpetual products linked to AI computing and commodities, extending its range of instruments beyond conventional crypto markets.

Extending the Platform into Payments

Beyond trading and investing, Bybit has expanded its payments infrastructure to help customers move funds with greater flexibility. Bybit Pay and Bybit Card support crypto and fiat transfers, merchant payments and everyday spending. The service now connects users with more than 5,000 merchants across 15+ countries and supports transfers to bank accounts and e-wallets, alongside QR payments and other payment services. Bybit has issued more than 4 million Bybit Cards, extending the platform’s use beyond financial markets into payments and spending.

Security and Regulatory Infrastructure

The expansion has been accompanied by investment in security, compliance and technology infrastructure.

In the first half of 2026, Bybit said it intercepted more than 30,000 suspicious withdrawal requests, protecting users from more than $700 million in potential losses.

Bybit also secured five new licenses and regulatory approvals across European Union, the Cayman Islands, Indonesia, South Africa and El Salvador during 2026. These regulatory developments support the company’s efforts to expand its presence across different markets, subject to local requirements.

The company launched Bybit AI in September as a conversational assistant across trading, account management and customer support, with further development planned around the platform’s wider financial services.

“Bybit is all about giving you the speed and scale you need when you Make Your Move. We have brought trading, investing, payments and AI together, and we are continuing to add more markets and more ways to use them. We built the platform. Now it is about giving people the financial freedom to make their own move,” said Ben Zhou, Co-founder and CEO of Bybit.

Building Beyond the Exchange

Four years after entering TradFi, Bybit now combines crypto markets with stocks and ETFs, derivatives, commodities, FX, selected pre-IPO access, payments and AI-powered services. The company’s focus is increasingly on bringing these capabilities together within a single platform while continuing to expand market access, product depth and the infrastructure supporting them.

For Bybit, the development of The New Financial Platform represents the next stage of its growth beyond crypto and into a broader role across global financial markets.

Meet A7 International, an Innovative Global Platform Designed to Reinvent the International Payments Market

Moscow, Russia, October 13th, 2026, FinanceWire

A7 International enables businesses and individuals to pay invoices with digital assets, while recipients receive a regular bank transfer, reflecting A7’s international positioning and expanding the geography of settlements available to foreign clients.

In two years of operation, A7 has become one of the key players in the international settlements market. Founded in 2024 to serve the foreign economic activity of Russian businesses, it currently serves around 15,000 companies, processing 10+ trillion roubles in 2025 alone. The services A7 offered domestically sparked interest among businesses from other countries, prompting the company to come up with a new product for foreign clients.

The launch of A7 International marks a new stage in A7’s journey. In response to requests from foreign entrepreneurs, the company is expanding its positioning and creating an export offering for businesses in various countries. It is a remote service compliant with local legislation on digital assets and available only in those jurisdictions where cryptocurrency circulation is permitted.

“We are presenting not just a new product in the lineup, but a new image of A7. We have adapted our service so that it can be used remotely from anywhere in the world. This is precisely the key demand of market participants today. They want to be able to transfer money around the world in a few clicks in the shortest possible time – directly from your smartphone, without lengthy paperwork, hidden fees, or unjustified holds on funds. And we are packaging this demand into a convenient and competitive form,” said Chairman of Bank PSB Petr Fradkov.

The mechanics of the service are simple: the client transfers USDT, and A7 arranges a bank transfer via SWIFT using the counterparty details specified in the invoice. The recipient does not need to accept cryptocurrency or open a crypto wallet: the funds arrive in their bank account.

To submit an application, you need to register in your personal account on the website a7.biz. Individuals undergo identity verification (KYC), and companies undergo corporate data verification (KYB). Then the client uploads the invoice and the necessary documents. The built-in algorithm automatically recognizes the invoice data and helps fill out the application.

“The system operates as follows. AI analyzes the sender and beneficiary, jurisdictions, and key risk factors of the transaction. Based on the verification results, a risk profile of the payment is formed and the available options for processing it are determined. The system compares compliance requirements with the capabilities of the existing payment infrastructure. After that, it recommends the optimal payment route taking into account its cost, speed, reliability, and applicable restrictions. Routing dynamically adapts to changes in conditions and the availability of payment channels. Data accumulated over the years makes it possible to continuously improve the quality of decisions made by the system,” noted A7 CEO Ilan Shor.

At launch, A7 International accepts USDT on the TRON network. Bank transfers are available in US dollars, euros, Chinese yuan, and UAE dirhams. Other currencies are available by prior agreement. The commission is 0.3% for both businesses and individuals. After uploading the invoice, the client sees the final cost of the payment, including commission, in advance.

Payment execution time is from one business day. After the operation is completed, the client receives a SWIFT message or another confirming document. For currency and customs control, the service also provides closing documents.

The presentation of the service took place on a symbolic date and time — October 13 at 13:13.

Video of the official presentation and Customer journey here.

About A7

A7 is a global financial technology company specializing in international payments and settlement solutions for international trade. It was established in 2024 with the involvement of PSB Bank.

A7 is developing an independent global payment infrastructure across more than 100 countries, combining global financial expertise, advanced technology and regulatory compliance. The company’s products include international payments, digital financial assets and promissory notes.

A7 Group works with 15,000 clients, with around 2,000 transactions processed through the system every day. In 2025, approximately 19% of Russian companies’ cross-border trade settlements were processed through A7. In October 2025, A7 received an AA(RU) credit rating with a Stable outlook from ACRA.

Matthew Mirro Names the Warning Signs He Tells Clients Never to Ignore

  • Matthew Mirro, a sales professional and senior advisor based in Valparaiso, Indiana, is sharing the warning signs he tells clients to watch for before they commit to an advisor, a deal, or an investment.

Why the Pitch Matters Less Than the Pause

Indiana, USA, Oct 13, 2026, ZEX PR WIRE — Matthew Mirro has spent his career in financial services, first building a business in Chicago and later expanding into real estate investment. Across both, he has seen the same pattern show up again and again: people get talked into decisions before they get the chance to think them through.

“A good opportunity can survive a pause,” Mirro says. “If someone is rushing you past the point where you’d normally ask questions, that itself is the warning sign. Not the product. The pressure.”

Mirro’s background in psychology, paired with years of sales experience, shaped how he reads a room and a pitch. He says the two skills work together: one tells you what someone is saying, the other tells you what they are avoiding.

The First Sign: A Pitch That Skips the Numbers

Mirro says the clearest red flag is when someone leads with a feeling instead of a figure.

“If the conversation is all about excitement and none of it is about math, slow down,” he says. “I want to see the numbers before I care about the story. The story should back up the numbers, not replace them.”

He tells clients to ask directly for the breakdown behind any projection, whether it’s a financial plan or a real estate deal. If the answer is vague or the person seems annoyed by the question, he treats that as information.

The Second Sign: Advice That Ignores the Client’s Timeline

Mirro says a second warning sign shows up when advice sounds identical no matter who is receiving it.

“Someone starting a family has different priorities than someone who’s twenty years into their career,” he says. “If the recommendation doesn’t change based on your actual situation, it probably wasn’t built for your situation in the first place.”

He points to his own path as an example, without treating it as a template for anyone else. He moved to Chicago to build a career and a business, then returned to Northwest Indiana when he and his wife decided to start a family. The decisions that made sense at each stage were different, he says, because the goals were different.

The Third Sign: No Room for Questions

The third sign Mirro names is simpler than the first two: how a person responds when you push back.

“If someone gets defensive the moment you ask a follow-up question, pay attention to that reaction,” he says. “A person who actually knows the material wants you to understand it. They’re not threatened by questions.”

Mirro says this sign applies whether someone is choosing a financial advisor, evaluating a business partner, or looking at a property. The willingness to slow down and explain, he says, tells you more than the pitch itself.

What Mirro Tells Clients to Do Instead

Mirro is careful to frame these signs as things to notice, not a checklist he hands out. He says the goal is for clients to build their own judgment over time, rather than depend on someone else’s approval for every decision.

“I’d rather someone learn to trust their own read on a situation,” he says. “My job is to give them the information and the honest answer, not to make the decision feel bigger or smaller than it is.”

He says the habit of asking questions, checking numbers, and noticing pressure has served him in both financial services and real estate investment. It is also, he says, a habit he hopes to pass along, both to clients and to his own children.

“Entrepreneurship and long-term financial decisions come with real risk,” Mirro says. “The people who do well aren’t the ones who avoid every risk. They’re the ones who know how to spot the difference between a real opportunity and a rushed one.”

About Matthew Mirro

Matthew Mirro is a sales professional and senior advisor based in Valparaiso, Indiana. He built his career in financial services after graduating from Ball State University with a degree in psychology, later expanding into real estate investment. Mirro is also the founder of the Michael Mirro Neurological Fund at the Mirro Center in Fort Wayne, Indiana, established in honor of his brother, Michael.

What Is LinkPro AI Multiple Identities, AI and Privacy in One Messaging Platform

Malaysia, 13th Oct 2026 – Discover LinkPro’s vision for next-generation communication infrastructure, bringing together multiple identities, AI-native messaging, contextual privacy, Secure Space and control over personal data.

LinkPro is a next-generation messaging platform built around multiple identities, AI-native communication and contextual privacy. Positioned as AI Communication Infrastructure, it rethinks messaging around the relationships people manage, the growing volume of conversations they receive and their need for control over identity and data.

For people managing projects, participating in communities and keeping up with personal contacts, a messaging system needs to reflect different relationships and help them find what matters. LinkPro brings these needs together, connecting identity, conversations and privacy rules within a single system.

Multiple Identities for Different Relationships

A professional presence at work, a private conversation with family and a public role in a community all belong to the same person, but involve different relationships. LinkPro accommodates those differences through Work, Personal, Community and Anonymous identities.

Each identity has its own name, profile picture, contacts, groups, notifications, online status and privacy rules. Users can manage their profile and communication environment according to the role they are in, giving each relationship a clearly defined place.

For creators, multiple identities separate fan communities, brand partnerships and personal contacts. For founders, they address the need to manage teams, clients, partners and private life at the same time. Starting with the structure of those relationships makes LinkPro better suited to the different roles a person actually holds.

AI at the Core of Conversation Understanding

LinkPro puts AI’s ability to interpret conversations at the heart of messaging. Summaries help users catch up on long exchanges, decision extraction organizes confirmed arrangements, and reply suggestions take the situation into account. Multilingual understanding supports conversations across regions, while Context Memory helps users find relevant past discussions.

In intelligent groups, these capabilities organize key decisions, action items, important files and discussion threads. Members returning after time offline can get an overview of the project before opening the topics they need to continue their work. Group conversations gain a clearer information structure.

LinkPro defines AI’s role clearly: AI understands; humans decide. Intelligent organization helps users make sense of information, while the people involved confirm important arrangements and make the final decisions.

Privacy Rules That Fit Each Relationship

Clients and family members have different expectations around availability. Friends and unfamiliar community members need different levels of access to profile information. LinkPro organizes privacy around relationships and conversations so settings reflect the situation in which communication takes place.

The design includes forwarding controls, read receipts, online status, message lifetimes, screenshot safeguards and alerts, and additional access conditions. These govern activity disclosure, content use and access to spaces, letting users apply appropriate rules to each relationship.

Multiple identities and contextual privacy work together. The identity establishes the role in use, while privacy rules define the boundaries within that role. For people managing several kinds of contact, this connection makes privacy easier to understand and manage.

A Separate Security Layer for Important Information

Everyday chats and important business information call for different access arrangements. LinkPro Secure Space provides a security layer for sensitive content outside ordinary messaging, with a separate entry point and access conditions for important conversations.

LinkPro’s technical security layer also incorporates end-to-end encryption, device keys and permission management. Identity, privacy and Secure Space are considered together within the foundational architecture, providing distinct management layers for different communication needs.

Digital Identity and Data Control for Wider Collaboration

LinkPro includes DIDs and verifiable credentials in its identity layer, with cross-platform identity, data ownership and community collaboration in its development direction. The focus is how users manage their digital identities and maintain relationships built over time.

Its data design distinguishes between encrypted cloud, local-first and decentralized storage. These approaches address different priorities, including convenient synchronization, control through users’ own devices and data sovereignty. Different identities and situations can have appropriate data arrangements.

For collaboration involving AI agents, LinkPro also focuses on agent identities, permissions and authorization limits. Communication between people and agents requires clarity about who is participating, who has authorized them and what they are allowed to do. These considerations extend into the next phase of the messaging architecture.

Designed for People and Teams with Complex Communication Needs

Founders and project leads manage several business relationships at once. Remote teams need handoffs across time zones. Creators separate their public presence, commercial work and private life. Community members need clear identities, discussions and participation rules. LinkPro builds a shared communication system around these situations.

Its product roadmap begins with messaging, identity and privacy foundations, develops AI’s understanding of conversations, and then extends into cross-platform identity, control over data and agent collaboration. Each stage connects the capabilities to practical communication needs.

Together, these choices give LinkPro a clear proposition: distinct spaces for different roles, easier access to the information that matters, and communication rules and data arrangements shaped by the user’s needs. They define LinkPro’s position as AI Communication Infrastructure.

B2PRIME Expands Tier-1 Access and Liquidity Architecture for Sophisticated Institutional Flow

Limassol, Cyprus, October 13th, 2026, FinanceWire

B2PRIME Group, a global financial services provider for institutional and professional clients, has announced a material expansion of its institutional liquidity architecture.

Following two years of strong growth, product development and investment in institutional infrastructure, B2PRIME has secured an additional line with its Tier-1 prime broker, expanded its relationships with Tier-1 banks and global financial institutions, and increased its capacity to construct and manage bespoke aggregated liquidity streams.

The expansion enables B2PRIME to support larger counterparties, more complex trading models and a broader range of institutional flow profiles.

Intelligent Liquidity Management

Over the past two years, B2PRIME has substantially diversified its pool of banking and non-banking liquidity providers, building a full-scale infrastructure for aggregating liquidity from a wide range of heterogeneous sources. 

Where the Group’s model previously relied on aggregating already-normalised sources, it now aggregates flows with varying order book depth, data formats and execution parameters — systematised and normalised within a single infrastructure rather than simply combined.

This has brought B2PRIME’s customisation to a new level. Individual liquidity streams can now be built for each client, accounting for execution parameters and source-specific characteristics, not just spreads and consolidated pricing. 

Each stream can be configured around instrument coverage, ticket-size distribution, target depth, holding periods, session concentration, latency sensitivity, pricing structure and expected volumes.

This gives institutional clients a liquidity configuration built for their business, rather than a generic pool offered on identical terms to every counterparty.

The Group has also developed more advanced markout and anomalous price-movement detectors, improving control over liquidity quality, faster identification of underperforming sources, and greater price-stream stability.

“Access at this level is earned through financial strength, consistent flow, operational discipline and a strong compliance record. Our expanded relationship with our Tier-1 prime broker and the addition of further Tier-1 bank pricing relationships reflect the progress B2PRIME has made. We now have the access, capacity and infrastructure to serve some of the most sophisticated businesses in the market, and to continue supporting them as they scale.” — Eugenia Mykuliak, Founder of B2PRIME Group

Expanding Prime-of-Prime Liquidity Infrastructure

The additional line with B2PRIME’s Tier-1 prime broker strengthens the Group’s ability to support higher volumes and larger institutional relationships. At the same time, the addition of further Tier-1 bank pricing relationships increases the range and quality of liquidity available for aggregation.

Together, these developments allow B2PRIME to create deeper and more resilient liquidity streams while reducing dependence on any single source.

The resulting architecture is designed to support demanding institutional requirements, including concentrated flow, larger ticket sizes, multi-asset coverage and businesses operating across different trading sessions and execution environments.

This combination of prime-broker access, diversified Tier-1 pricing and client-specific liquidity engineering places B2PRIME among a relatively small group of regulated Prime-of-Prime providers capable of supporting sophisticated liquidity mandates at scale.

More Than a Price Feed

At the institutional level, liquidity quality depends on the diversity of underlying sources, available credit, fill performance and suitability for the client’s specific flow and many other factors. Instead of distributing a standardised feed, B2PRIME designs each stream around the client’s business model and execution requirements, with performance continuously assessed against real execution data.

This has already translated into tighter spreads across major and minor FX pairs and precious metals, more competitive swap rates, increased executable depth and stronger price continuity across principal sessions. 

The broader source mix also gives B2PRIME greater flexibility to manage the liquidity behind each stream. Sources can be assessed against fill ratios, rejection rates, slippage, response times, spread stability and performance during volatile market conditions. This is a continuous process. A liquidity stream is not treated as a static product: it is monitored, reviewed and adjusted as the client’s flow and market conditions evolve.

B2PRIME’s publicly available Best Execution framework, aligned with MiFID II, governed all of this. Institutional counterparties can access detailed execution-quality reporting.

“The difference between supplying liquidity and managing liquidity is significant. A feed can look competitive in a snapshot. An institutional liquidity stream must perform across volume, volatility, different sessions and changing flow characteristics. We understand the client’s flow and manage the stream continuously against real execution data.”

— Alex Tsepaev, Chief Strategy Officer at B2PRIME Group

Two Years of Growth Results in Expansion

In 2025, the Group’s client trading income increased by 165% year-on-year to EUR 52.8 million. Net profit reached EUR 15.0 million, while client trading volumes grew more than fivefold. B2PRIME ended the year with zero debt and an equity-to-total-assets ratio of approximately 45%.

That’s why this combination of balance-sheet strength, consistent volumes, regulatory standing and operational performance has enabled B2PRIME to deepen its relationships with leading global financial institutions.

The offering is available now to eligible brokers, hedge funds, proprietary trading firms, asset managers, OTC desks and banks, subject to entity and jurisdiction, via FIX API, PrimeXM, oneZero, Centroid, FXCubic and MT4/MT5 bridges.

Chai Clinic Expands Personalized Anti-Aging Care with Ulthera, Thermage and Serf Lifting

Chai Clinic is expanding its one-on-one customized total skin solutions, combining premium lifting treatments such as Ulthera, Thermage, and Serf Lifting with skin boosters and medical skincare. Through precise treatment tailored to each patient’s skin condition, the clinic aims to maximize anti-aging synergy.

South Korea, 13th Oct 2026 – Chai Clinic announced it is significantly strengthening its “Customized Total Skin Solution,” which spans anti-aging lifting procedures, skin boosters, and systematic skincare management.

Chai Clinic Expands Personalized Anti-Aging Care with Ulthera, Thermage and Serf Lifting

As interest in preventing skin aging grows, more consumers are seeking personalized care based on skin thickness, elasticity loss, and overall condition. Chai Clinic responds by combining distinctive lifting devices with skincare programs.

Its flagship programs, Ulthera and Thermage, deliver energy precisely to the epidermis, dermis, and deeper layers. Ulthera uses high-intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) to lift the SMAS layer, while Thermage uses radiofrequency (RF) energy to stimulate dermal collagen regeneration. Depending on skin type, the two can be combined or chosen individually. The clinic has also introduced options such as Surf lifting, which aim to restore elasticity and improve facial contours with less discomfort.

Skin boosters balance moisture and oil, soften fine wrinkles, and strengthen the skin barrier, enhancing regeneration when paired with lifting devices. Professional skincare before and after procedures helps prolong results and supports recovery.

“Satisfying anti-aging results require a multifaceted approach that cares for both the surface and inside of the skin,” said Won-jin Cho, Representative Director. “Through one-on-one consultations and genuine products in exact amounts, we will provide solutions optimized for each individual.”

Located in Delight Square near Hapjeong Station in Mapo-gu, Seoul, Chai Clinic is a global anti-aging clinic where doctors with over 10 years of clinical experience personally handle everything from consultation to treatment.
