Animoca Brands Expands Beyond Cryptocurrency with Strategic Moves
Animoca Brands is shifting its growth strategy beyond cryptocurrencies, targeting the tokenization of stablecoins and real-world assets (RWA) by 2026. Keyvan Peymani, the company’s Strategy Director, emphasized that 2025 will serve as a foundational year for corporate-scale tokenization and stablecoin ecosystem development. The Hong Kong-based firm is also preparing for a reverse merger with Singapore’s Currenc Group, a strategic MOVE toward a Nasdaq public listing.
Through its joint venture, Anchorpoint Financial, Animoca is collaborating with Standard Chartered and Hong Kong Telecommunications to secure a stablecoin issuance license. This initiative positions Hong Kong as a convergence point for banks and tech firms in Web3 finance. Additional partnerships with Fosun Wealth and FinChain aim to bridge traditional Asian financial institutions with blockchain-based investment products.
