Clearsky Network Eyes Expansion in Cyprus; Opens New
Office
Clearsky Network, a company specializing in the
financial markets, payments, and blockchain technology, has opened a new office
in Limassol, Cyprus. The company announced the step last week, saying it
plans to strengthen its presence in the region.
Amir Peled, Clearsky Network’s Chief Financial
Officer (CFO), will be relocating to Limassol to manage the new office, the
company said in a statement. Some of the services offered at the new location are company formations and corporate services.
"This new office under my management gives us the
opportunity to better assist clients in all aspects of their business and be
more hands-on with localized support," said Peled.
Alchemy Pay has announced a new service that
enables users to purchase as low as a dollar's worth of cryptocurrency. The new
service is part of the plans by the fiat-cryptocurrency payment platform to remove
barriers to purchasing digital assets.
The service is reportedly supported by several
crypto networks, including USDT, USDC, ERC20, and TRC20, the company said in a
statement today (Monday).
Based in Singapore, Alchemy Pay was founded in 2017.
The platform links cryptocurrencies to fiat currencies and claims to support
users in more than 170 countries.

In this conversation, we sit down with Drew Niv, CSO at ATFX Connect and one of the most influential figures in modern FX.
We speak about market structure, the institutional view on liquidity, and the sharp rise of prop trading, a sector Drew has been commenting on in recent months. Drew explains why he once dismissed prop trading, why his view changed, and what he now thinks the model means for brokers, clients and risk managers.
We explore subscription-fee dependency, the high reneging rate, and the long-term challenge: how brokers can build a more stable and honest version of the model. Drew also talks about the traffic advantage standalone prop firms have built and why brokers may still win in the long run if they take the right approach.

In this conversation, we speak with Aydin Bonabi, CEO and co-founder of Surveill, a firm focused on fraud detection and AI-driven compliance tools for financial institutions.
We start with Aydin’s view of the Summit and the challenges brokers face as fraud tactics grow more complex. He explains how firms can stay ahead through real-time signals, data patterns, and early-stage detection.
We also talk about AI training and why compliance teams often struggle to keep models accurate, fair, and aligned with regulatory expectations. Aydin breaks down what “good” AI training looks like inside a financial environment, including the importance of clean data, domain expertise, and human oversight.
He closes with a clear message: fraud is scaling, and so must the tools that stop it.

Interview with Jas Shah
Builder | Adviser | Fintech Writer | Product Strategist
In this episode, Jonathan Fine sat down with Jas Shah, one of the most thoughtful voices in global fintech. Known for his work across advisory, product, stablecoins, and his widely read writing, Jas brings a rare combination of industry insight and plain-spoken clarity.
We talk about his first impression of the Summit, the projects that keep him busy today, and how they connect to the stablecoin panel he joined. Jas shares his view on the link between fintech, wealthtech and retail brokers, especially as firms like Revolut, eToro and Trading212 blur long-standing lines in the market.
We also explore what stablecoin adoption might look like for retail investment platforms, including a few product and UX angles that are not obvious at first glance.
To close, Jas explains how he thinks about writing, and how he approaches “shipping” pieces that spark debate across the industry.
