Snail, Inc. Announces Intent to Explore Proprietary USD-Backed Stablecoin

Globe and Mail15-07-2025
CULVER CITY, Calif., July 15, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Snail, Inc. (Nasdaq: SNAL) ('Snail Games' or the 'Company'), a leading global independent developer and publisher of interactive digital entertainment, announced its intention to explore pursuing a strategic digital asset initiative that includes the evaluation and feasibility for introduction of its own proprietary stablecoin. This initiative would be subject to a range of factors, including but not limited to, regulatory approvals, market conditions, technical feasibility, cybersecurity safeguards, financial controls, and internal governance. The Company believes that exploring stablecoin infrastructure may position it as an early mover within the digital entertainment industry. While no decisions have been made to integrate such technology into the Company's corporate strategy, it continues to evaluate and explore opportunities as part of its broader innovation roadmap.
Recognizing the growing potential of crypto-based transactions in the digital entertainment and gaming industry, the Company is currently assessing the feasibility of developing and exploring its stablecoin with multiple external use cases, with no current timeline or commitment.
To support this initiative, Snail Games has retained Dr. George Cao, an external consultant. Dr. Cao earned his PhD degree in Computer Science from the University of Chicago and is the Founder and the Chief Executive Officer of AscendEX, a full-stack cryptocurrency financial platform that offers simple solutions for investing, trading, and earning to global users. In addition, the Company also retained seasoned legal advisors, including a nationally recognized law firm ranked by Chambers FinTech Legal USA as a leading firm serving cryptocurrency and blockchain clients.
'This stablecoin exploration is a natural evolution of our innovation-led strategy and will support a broader effort to evaluate how blockchain-based technologies could be aligned with the Company's long-term goal to be at the forefront of digital transformation in the entertainment space,' said Snail, Inc. co-CEO Hai Shi. 'To support this initiative, we've engaged a nationally recognized law firm and a seasoned strategic advisor to support and guide the successful exploration of this opportunity. We are evaluating potential future phase hiring needs for professionals with specialized experience in blockchain, stablecoins, and digital asset strategy. While our focus continues to remain on gaming across our ARK franchise, indie titles, and other up-and-coming genres, this investigation into the crypto space and evaluation of the feasibility of launching our own stablecoin would mark a key step in advancing our vision of driving innovation across digital entertainment. We're excited to share continued updates as we reach meaningful milestones in our evaluation.'

NANO Nuclear Completes Assembly of Its Proprietary Annular Linear Induction Pump Technology Prototype for Critical Test Loop Validation In SBIR Phase III Program

Milestone demonstrates NANO Nuclear's ability to bring advanced nuclear technology from initial design to construction and demonstration New York, New York--(Newsfile Corp. - July 23, 2025) - NANO Nuclear Energy Inc. (NASDAQ: NNE) ("NANO Nuclear" or "the Company"), a leading advanced nuclear energy and technology company focused on developing clean energy solutions, today announced that its proprietary, patent pending Annular Linear Induction Pump (ALIP) technology for nuclear reactors has been assembled onto a test loop and integrated to a controllable test setup for variable design validation at NANO Nuclear's Demonstration Facility in Westchester County, New York. As NANO Nuclear continues progress with its microreactor programs, including its lead KRONOS MMR TM Energy System project, the ALIP assembly milestone demonstrates NANO Nuclear's leadership in advanced nuclear energy technology and its ability to move technology from initial design to construction and demonstration. NANO Nuclear hopes to be able to start commercial sales activities for ALIP by the end of this year or next year. This milestone also underscores the utility of NANO Nuclear's Westchester Demonstration Facility, which became operational earlier this year. "This initial milestone with ALIP shows in a small but very promising way what we can do as a company in the real world," said James Walker, Chief Executive Officer of NANO Nuclear. "ALIP is an enabling technology that supports the development of next-generation reactors utilizing molten salts or liquid metals, and advancing ALIP through the SBIR Phase III process has allowed us to mature the system extensively, refining its design, validating key performance metrics, and preparing it for integration into demonstration-scale platforms at our custom-built Westchester facility. This progress not only enhances the technology's readiness for deployment but also opens a clear pathway toward revenue generating activities for NANO Nuclear as we progress work on our broader portfolio of advanced nuclear technologies." The ALIP technology is a thermal management and distribution system within NANO Nuclear's suite of advanced nuclear energy technologies. It operates using electromagnetic, in place of mechanical, pumps, and could serve as a critical component in the development of advanced molten-salt and liquid-metal nuclear reactors. As previously announced, earlier this year, NANO Nuclear collaborated with aRobotics Company, a leading innovator in robotics fabrication, inspection, engineering and testing, to support NANO Nuclear's ongoing SBIR Phase III program for ALIP, which was previously funded by the U.S Department of Energy. Data from the test and validation work being done will be leveraged to support the SBIR Phase III program.

"With the support of aRobotics Company, we plan to steadily develop and test additional generations of ALIP as we improve the technology's readiness for the market." To view an enhanced version of this graphic, please visit: "We believe ALIP will have a number of applications upon development including in the space and defense sectors," said Akaash Kancharla, CEO of aRobotics Company. "The procedural knowledge and material science advanced by this work will have implications far beyond this useful product." By utilizing a time-varying magnetic field, ALIPs enable the movement of conductive fluids without mechanical components, reducing wear and maintenance requirements while increasing efficiency. Current efforts at the NANO Nuclear Demonstration Facility are geared towards the development of the first operational ALIP prototype and a custom designed test loop for research data collection, alongside a magnetic field mapping system, for the collection of manufacturing and performance data. Future work will include testing and characterizing pump performance with different working fluids, simulating component failure scenarios, and material testing.
