CoinW Research: Navigating Value and Risk in the Blockchain Era
HONG KONG, June 9, 2025 /CNW/ -- In the fast-evolving cryptocurrency landscape, identifying high-quality assets while steering clear of hype-driven investments is a critical challenge for both investors and exchanges.
As a key player in the industry, CoinW Research stands at the forefront of this task, committed to independence, integrity, and analytical rigor. With a data-driven and rational approach, it filters market noise, uncovers long-term value, and strengthens risk management frameworks.
Serving as the core team for asset review and sector research, CoinW Research merges data science with industry expertise to offer insightful evaluations. Its work not only supports the platform's sustainable development but also promotes the health of the broader blockchain ecosystem.
Anchoring Value In a Shifting Market
The early days of blockchain revolved around foundational innovations like Bitcoin and Ethereum—decentralized money and programmable smart contracts. Since its establishment in 2020, CoinW Research has witnessed the market's transformation from speculative "aircoin" phases to a new era emphasizing fundamental value.
Prior to the DeFi wave, the market was heavily influenced by ICOs, many of which prioritized hype over substance. This speculative bubble eventually gave way to the rise of DeFi—introducing practical financial utilities with transparency, composability, and real returns.
CoinW Research emerged early as a value-oriented evaluator, developing its proprietary SCORE model—a comprehensive asset evaluation system that blends quantitative metrics with in-depth sectoral research. The model has become a benchmark for identifying quality assets.
Its methodology evaluates factors like token distribution, vesting policies, and governance models. For example, the Institute's recommendation of MYRO, a Solana-based meme coin, was based on its equitable tokenomics and active community. Its successful platform launch validated the Institute's rigorous review process.
The prevailing industry consensus is clear: sustainable blockchain growth hinges on technological innovation, not speculation. CoinW Research is committed to identifying enduring value and serving as a rational voice in a volatile market.
The SCORE Model: A Holistic Approach to Asset Evaluation
Built on principles of fairness, transparency, and deep market insight, the SCORE model assesses crypto assets across five key dimensions:
Sector & Hype: Tracks market trends while filtering irrational speculation.
Code & Security: Enforces strict security through smart contract audits and code transparency.
Operations & Outreach: Evaluates project fundamentals such as economic models, marketing strategies, user growth, and community engagement to determine sustainability and market vitality.
Resources & Teams: Assesses the experience and network strength of the project team as dual indicators of reliability.
Evaluation & Data: Leverages on-chain analytics to reveal a project's real value and activity.
More than just a rating framework, SCORE embodies CoinW Research's philosophy: identify real innovation, manage risk rigorously, and simplify decision-making for users and exchanges alike.
From Strategy to Impact: Practical Success Stories
SCORE is not theoretical—it delivers measurable outcomes. By leveraging this model, CoinW Research identifies promising opportunities ahead of the curve and shields users from high-risk or non-compliant projects.
In 2020, CoinW Research analyzed early capital flows during the DeFi boom and listed top projects like YFI and YFII before they went mainstream—allowing users to ride the liquidity mining trend early. This proactive approach showcases the model's predictive power and the Institute's strategic foresight.
Such results demonstrate CoinW Research's value not just as an analytical team but as a market authority capable of guiding both users and platforms through complex industry cycles.
Staying Ahead: Insight, Independence, and Execution
Over years of experience, CoinW Research has adhered to four core principles: user-first thinking, independent judgment, industry foresight, and strategic execution. It acts as both a rigorous filter for listings and a benchmark in the Web3 space.
When Sushiswap launched its now-famous "liquidity attack" on Uniswap in 2020, the Institute provided timely on-chain analysis, enabling CoinW to become one of the first exchanges to list SUSHI—reinforcing its leadership in data-informed decision-making.
As DeFi evolved, CoinW Research deepened its technical research to help users identify sustainable, long-term opportunities.
Navigating Hype: Caution During the BRC-20 Frenzy
The BRC-20 boom in 2023 marked another speculative phase in the crypto market, as the Ordinals protocol introduced a novel way to inscribe data onto individual satoshis—creating a wave of inscription-based tokens on the Bitcoin network. As hype escalated and a flood of projects emerged, CoinW Research Institute maintained its disciplined approach.
Upholding rigorous standards, the Institute approved only two projects—Ordi and SATS—after comprehensive security audits. This caution proved effective: SATS's market cap skyrocketed from $10 million to over $2 billion, exemplifying the power of quality-over-quantity asset selection.
By filtering out short-term noise and focusing on fundamentals, CoinW Research helps users navigate volatile markets—mitigating the 99% of risks to uncover the 1% of truly valuable opportunities.
Decoding Meme Trends
In 2024, CoinW identified early momentum within the Solana ecosystem, strategically backing meme coins like BOME and SLERF—which ultimately delivered outsized returns.
While the broader market dismissed Pump.fun as a "junk coin factory," CoinW Research recognized the underlying innovation in its auto-launch and burn mechanisms. Projects like MOODENG, which leveraged this infrastructure, gained early support from the Institute.
This contrarian insight reflects CoinW Research's willingness to challenge popular narratives and uncover value in unconventional places.
The Rise of Decentralized AI and Infrastructure Partnerships
In parallel, CoinW Research prioritized the rapidly emerging AI sector, listing projects like ARC and Virtual, which leverage AI to boost blockchain performance. CoinW Research anticipates that future breakthroughs—akin to Uniswap's impact—may arise from decentralized AI protocols.
Supporting public infrastructure also remains a priority. The Institute played a key role in launching Shardeum globally and formed strategic alliances with Solana to revitalize its ecosystem, reinforcing its commitment to long-term value creation.
Its team—bringing together Web3 innovation and traditional finance experience—continues to transform conviction into disciplined research and strategic action.
Finding Certainty Amid Market Uncertainty
Over the past five years, CoinW Research Institute has consistently followed the principles of user focus, independence, industry insight, and future planning. It neither blindly chases trends nor remains complacent.
Its success is rooted in a methodology that deeply integrates industry knowledge, data science, and risk management.
In a noisy and chaotic market, truth lies in on-chain data and long-term trends. CoinW Research continues to illuminate the path to value discovery in cryptocurrency with clear-headed rationality.

EDC supported more than 27,800 businesses and facilitated more than $123 billion intrade-related activities Français
OTTAWA, ON, June 9, 2025 /CNW/ - Today, Export Development Canada (EDC) released its 2024 Integrated Annual Report, highlighting how the organization helped its customers grow their business beyond Canada to seize the vast trade opportunities that await them in the global marketplace. The report is complemented by additional environmental, social and governance (ESG) disclosures: 2024 Climate-Related Disclosure, and the 2024 Sustainable Bond Impact Report. In 2024, exporters faced a complex and rapidly evolving economic environment. During this period, EDC expanded its presence in key Indo-Pacific markets to support the trade diversification of Canadian exporters. EDC invested in medium-sized Canadian exporters, sharpening its focus on priority sectors, and maintained a strong commitment to sustainable and responsible business practices. "In 2024, global economic softness weighed on Canadian exporters. Slow domestic growth, higher-for-longer interest rates and slowing labour markets strained the economic outlook in many countries," said Alison Nankivell, EDC's President and CEO. "Those challenges, coupled with new market uncertainties towards the end of the year, have energized our customers to transition from continental to global traders as we strive to make it easier for them to secure new international business opportunities. This renewed interest in trade diversification and EDC's solutions have increased since the start of this year given the evolving nature of U.S. trade policies, and we're stepping up to support them." In 2024, EDC supported more than 27,800 customers with financial and knowledge solutions, with the vast majority being small and medium-sized businesses. We facilitated a total of $123.4 billion in exports, foreign investment and trade development activities, including $23.4 billion in business in emerging markets. This support contributed to over 475,800 domestic jobs and helped to generate $87 billion of Canada's GDP. "During an uncertain economic environment, we strategically deployed capital and took on risk to help more Canadian companies reach global markets—and we are continuing to do so in response to the current climate," said Scott Moore, EDC's Executive Vice-President and Chief Financial Officer. "We're motivated by findings that Canadian companies supported by EDC generate 23% more revenues, employ 16% more workers and are 6% more productive, according to our latest study with Statistics Canada." In 2024, EDC's net income increased to $915 million from $450 million in 2023. This was driven by higher net revenue, combined with unrealized gains on financial instruments carried at fair value. Our growing presence in the Indo-Pacific In 2024, EDC added three new representations in the Indo-Pacific, increasing the total number of representations to 11 in the region, including its Singapore branch. EDC opened representations in Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam, Manila, Philippines, and most recently, Bangkok, Thailand (in 2025) to offer in-market support to attract more Canadian companies to the booming region and help them navigate local market complexities. EDC supported 1,529 customers and facilitated $13 billion in business volumes in the Indo-Pacific region in 2024. It also signed memorandums of understanding with several export credit agencies and market leaders to enable strong market access for Canadian exporters. Our support for Canada's medium-sized exporters and key sectors In 2024, we continued our strategic objective to support the international growth of Canada's medium-sized companies. In 2024, we served 1,175 medium-sized Canadian companies across our financial solutions. EDC is focusing on Canadian sectors that provide net-new growth for Canada, namely agri-food, critical minerals, the energy transition, advanced manufacturing and digital industries. Its goal is to highlight Canada's strengths on the global stage and improve trade competitiveness. For example, in the agri-food sector, EDC served 3,201 customers throughout the year, facilitating $21.7 billion in business. As a leading financier of Canada's cleantech industry, EDC served 500 cleantech customers in 2024, enabling $9.7 billion in business facilitated. Our commitment to responsible business Throughout the year, EDC maintained its commitment to responsible business. In 2024, we issued our sixth green bond valued at US$ 1 billion, helping to further attract capital for climate-focused investment and support for projects that generate positive environmental outcomes. Additionally, we deployed $1.3 billion in financing for 56 renewable energy projects. Through our inclusive trade efforts, we offered targeted support for Canadian companies owned by members of equity-seeking groups, focusing on companies owned by women and Indigenous people. This effort served 3,816 financial and non-financial customers and facilitated $2.5 billion in business and trade activities. For more information, read the 2024 Integrated Annual Report and the suite of supplemental ESG reports. Export Development Canada (EDC) is a financial Crown corporation dedicated to helping Canadian businesses make an impact at home and abroad. EDC has the financial products and knowledge Canadian companies need to confidently enter new markets, reduce financial risk and grow their business as they go from local to global. Together, EDC and Canadian companies are building a more prosperous, stronger and sustainable economy for all Canadians.

Canada's new government is rebuilding, rearming, and reinvesting in the Canadian Armed Forces Français
TORONTO, June 9, 2025 /CNW/ - In an increasingly dangerous and divided world, Canada must be prepared – to defend our people and our values, to secure our sovereignty, and to protect our Allies. We must be prepared to lead and to shape a more stable and prosperous world. This entails government recognizing our new realities and investing in the measures required to meet this moment. Today, the Prime Minister, Mark Carney, announced that Canada's new government is rebuilding, rearming, and reinvesting in the Canadian Armed Forces. With this increase, Canada will achieve NATO's 2 per cent target this year – half a decade ahead of schedule – and further accelerate our investments in years to follow, consistent with our security imperatives. The investment for 2025-26 will be over $9 billion. Measures in this plan include: Better pay for Canadian Armed Forces, improved recruitment and retention, and investments to support operational readiness, fleet maintenance, security, and infrastructure requirements. New aircraft, armed vehicles, and ammunition, as well as support for projects currently underway. Developing new drones and sensors to monitor the seafloor and the Arctic. Repairing and maintaining existing ships, aircraft, and other assets. More health care funding and staff for Armed Forces personnel. Expanding the reach, security mandate, and abilities of the Canadian Coast Guard and integrating it into our NATO defence capabilities – to better secure our sovereignty and expand maritime surveillance. Bolstering Canada's defence industrial capacity. Building capacity in artificial intelligence, cyber, quantum, and space. Modern and secure digital infrastructure. The plan will support key capabilities, including: Arctic Over-the-Horizon Radar Joint Counter-Drone Program Joint Support Ships Long-range precision strike capability Increased domestic ammunition production Additional logistics utility vehicles, light utility vehicles, and armoured vehicles This government will also undertake efforts to support veterans, including modernizing the benefits system so veterans get supports sooner, streamlining military trade credentials in the civilian sectors, and improving health services for women veterans. Canada requires these capabilities to uphold and assert its sovereignty and ensure our defence never becomes dependent on others again. As we strengthen the Canadian Armed Forces, we will also build up Canadian industry, driving innovation and creating good careers for Canadian workers and new opportunities for Canadian businesses. Now more than ever, we need to defend our sovereignty and safeguard Canada's people and interests. Quotes "In an increasingly dangerous and divided world, Canada must assert its sovereignty. We will rapidly procure new equipment and technology, build our defence industrial capacity, and meet our NATO defence commitment this year. Canada will seize this opportunity with urgency and determination." — The Rt. Hon. Mark Carney, Prime Minister of Canada "For generations, Canadians have served our country with honour, and today, we renew our promise to stand behind them. We are equipping our Armed Forces with the capabilities and support they need to protect Canadians and uphold our commitments around the world. This historic investment will strengthen our sovereignty and invest in the Canadian economy – growing a world-class defence industry that fuels innovation and job creation." — The Hon. , Minister of National Defence

Democrats are drawing closer to the crypto industry despite Trump divisions
An advertisement for the cryptocurrency, Bitcoin, is displayed on a building in Hong Kong on Nov. 18, 2021. (AP Photo/Kin Cheung, File) WASHINGTON — As U.S. President Donald Trump builds a crypto empire — including hosting a private dinner with top investors at his golf club — Democrats have united in condemning what they call blatant corruption from the White House. But the Democratic Party's own relationship with the emerging crypto industry is far less cut and dried. Work in the Republican-led Senate to legitimize cryptocurrency by adding guardrails has drawn backing from some Democrats, underscoring growing support for the industry in the party. But divisions have opened over the bill, with many demanding it prevent the Republican president and his family from directly profiting from cryptocurrency. 'I'm all on board with the idea of regulating crypto,' said Sen. Chris Murphy, D-Conn. 'But at this moment, when cryptocurrency is being so clearly used by Donald Trump to facilitate his corruption, I don't think you can close your eyes to that when you're legislating.' The legislation is moving ahead more rapidly than Congress usually acts when an industry is new. But the big money and campaign donations flowing from cryptocurrency firms have made them a new powerhouse on the political scene, one that's increasingly gaining allies and capturing the attention of lawmakers. A look at what to know about the industry's clout and the political fight over what's known as the GENIUS Act: 'Anti-crypto is a good way to end your career' To understand the growing clout of the crypto industry, look no further than the 2024 election. Fairshake, a crypto super political action committee, and its affiliated PACs spent more than US$130 million in congressional races. Fairshake spent roughly $40 million supporting Republican Bernie Moreno in Ohio in an effort to defeat Democratic Sen. Sherrod Brown. Brown, who lost to Moreno by more than 3 percentage points, was seen as a chief critic of the industry as the chairman of the Senate Banking Committee. 'DC received a clear message that being anti-crypto is a good way to end your career, as it doesn't represent the will of the voters,' Brian Armstrong, the CEO of Coinbase, wrote in a social media post the day after the 2024 election. Coinbase — the largest crypto exchange in the U.S. and biggest contributor to Fairshake — does not view support for its industry as partisan, according to Kara Calvert, the company's vice president of U.S. policy. The industry also spent heavily to support Democrats Ruben Gallego and Elissa Slotkin in their races for open Senate seats in battleground states. Fairshake spent $10 million in support of Slotkin during her successful Senate run against Republican Mike Rodgers, and Slotkin, who won the Michigan race by fewer than 20,000 votes, spoke in favor of crypto on the campaign trail. Similar dynamics are setting up ahead of 2026 in contested House and Senate races. Fairshake said in January that it already had $116 million in cash on hand aimed at the 2026 midterm elections. 'We're not slowing down, and everything remains on the table,' Josh Vlasto, a spokesperson for Fairshake, told The Associated Press. Hours before a May 19 vote to move forward on cryptocurrency legislation in the Senate, an advocacy group tied to Coinbase sent an email to the offices of U.S. senators warning that the vote would count toward their crypto-friendliness scores. 'What the spending does is put crypto on the map. It lets members know that this is not a phase, this is real industry, with real dollars, that is developing its hold in Washington,' said Calvert. Democrats navigate around a 'crypto president' A significant number of Democrats, 16, joined Republicans in advancing the crypto legislation. The GENIUS Act would create a new regulatory structure for stablecoins, a type of cryptocurrency typically pegged to the U.S. dollar. It is viewed as a step toward consumer protections and greater legitimacy for the industry. The sticking point for many Democrats is that while the bill prohibits members of Congress and their families from profiting off stablecoins, it excludes the president from those restrictions. Trump, once a skeptic of the industry, has vowed in his second term to make the U.S. the global capital of crypto. Meanwhile, he and his family have moved aggressively into nearly every corner of the industry: mining operations, billion-dollar bitcoin purchases, a newly minted stablecoin and a Trump-branded meme coin. Days after Trump's interests in the industry became public in early May, Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer of New York urged the Democratic caucus to unite and vote against the package to have a stronger hand in negotiations, according to a person familiar with the matter who insisted on anonymity to discuss private discussions. On May 8, a bloc of Senate Democrats who had previously backed the GENIUS Act reversed course — ultimately voting to block the bill from advancing. Negotiations between Senate Democrats and Republicans followed. The new version of the bill is now expected to pass the 100-member Senate this month. Amendments are still possible. Schumer and Sen. Jeff Merkley, D-Ore. are expected to propose one that would bar the president and his family from profiting off stablecoins, though it's unlikely to pass. 'There is room for improvements as there often is with a lot of legislation. But with this in particular, we've got issues with the president,' said Democratic Sen. Mark Kelly of Arizona 'Having said that, this was negotiated with Democrats and Republicans. We got to a place. We voted on it. I expect this is the version we're going to pass.' Still, the legislation is stirring unease. Schumer, asked if he's urging members to vote against the bill, noted that he has opposed the legislation and said 'there's division in our caucus on that issue.' 'There's a gaping hole in this bill that everybody sees,' Murphy said. 'After it's passed, it will be illegal for me to issue a cryptocurrency, but it's legal for the president of the United States.' 'If this bill passes, we kind of go from a dirt road to a paved road,' he said. What comes next If the Senate approves the stablecoin legislation, the bill will still need to clear the House before reaching the president's desk. Crypto advocates say the next priority is pushing Congress for market structure legislation, a far more sweeping effort than simply regulating stablecoins. 'Stablecoin is one step of the path. Then you need market structure. We're hopeful that the Senate works together to pass something quickly,' Calvert said. Some Democrats view the legislation as a chance to impose basic guardrails on a rapidly growing industry that's particularly popular among men and younger voters, two groups that drifted from the party in 2024. ___ Associated Press writers Alan Suderman, Lisa Mascaro, Matt Brown and Mary Clare Jalonick contributed to this report.
