KUALA LUMPUR, MALAYSIA – Media OutReach Newswire – 28 May 2025 – According to Coinbase’s April 2025 Monthly Outlook, the total crypto market capitalisation (excluding Bitcoin) has fallen by 41% from $1.6 trillion in December 2024 to $950 billion in early April 2025. This was the sharpest decline in over two years, pulling valuations below levels seen throughout most of the 2021–2022 cycle. However, the sell-off was far from uniform. While Bitcoin has shed less than 20% at the beginning of April, altcoins have experienced a 41% wipeout, underscoring a distinct capital flight towards more established digital assets. Most recently, Bitcoin has managed to recover and even set a new all-time high, surpassing the critical $110,000 mark on 21 May. At the same time, other crypto majors—notably, Ethereum and XRP—continue to trade substantially below their recent peaks (see the chart below). As capital retreated from riskier altcoins, investor sentiment has soured, prompting Coinbase to warn of an emerging ‘crypto winter’ scenario. Global broker Octa, active in digital asset transactions, sees this as a decisive phase of risk reallocation, with traders seeking clarity before any meaningful return to risk. Major crypto coins’ performance in 2025 Source: Octa Broker Several stress points are converging: Venture capital (VC) funding, though up from Q4 2024, remains 50–60% below 2021–22 levels. Liquidity conditions are tightening, particularly for smaller projects. Macro headwinds—including rising global tariffs and macroeconomic uncertainty—have paralysed risk appetite. More speculative corners of the market, such as tokens used for Decentralized Physical Infrastructure Networks (DePINs), memecoins and coins used for Artificial Intelligence (AI) agents, have been hardest hit. Their underperformance highlights growing investor caution. Kar Yong Ang, a financial market analyst at Octa broker, explains: ‘As of right now, the market clearly sees more value in Bitcoin vs the rest of the crypto universe. The global macroeconomic situation is highly unstable, with tariffs drama still unfolding and rising protectionism potentially threatening the U.S. dollar’s reserve currency status. As a result, investors’ capital has migrated from high-risk crypto space like alt-coins into relatively low-risk Bitcoin. In fact, Bitcoin has become a sort of “safe-haven coin” of the crypto market’. Indeed, broader financial markets have become increasingly concerned about the deteriorating U.S. twin deficits (fiscal and trade), both of which are on an unsustainable trajectory. The yields on the U.S. 20-year government bonds rose above 5.15% on 22 May, almost a two-year high, while the U.S. Dollar Index (DXY) dropped below the critical 100 mark, reflecting eroding confidence in the USD’s safe-haven status. Furthermore, ratings agency Moody’s downgraded the U.S. sovereign rating, one notch down from ‘Aaa’ to ‘Aa1’ due to concerns about the nation’s growing debt. Concurrently, most cryptocurrencies continue to act as high-beta proxies for global sentiment, and in today’s global macroeconomic environment, that sensitivity is proving to be a significant headwind. Tariff disputes between the U.S. and China, macroeconomic uncertainty, and declining equity market performance are all contributing to a reduction in overall risk appetite, thereby negatively impacting most cryptocurrencies. However, Bitcoin appears to be a major exception in this regard. Kar Yong Ang explains: ‘At first, the BTC rally appeared to be highly speculative: the market had positively reacted to Trump’s softer stance towards the Federal Reserve (Fed) Chairman and U.S.-China trade deal. Later, however, Bitcoin became the only major crypto coin to set a new all-time high. It suggests a continuing flight to perceived safety within the crypto universe, while alt-coin flows remain diminished’. Still, the ongoing macroeconomic uncertainty and potential failure of the U.S. to resolve its trade tensions with China and the European Union (EU) could act as an immediate catalyst, potentially triggering a renewed bearish phase for Bitcoin. Just recently, U.S. President Donald Trump’s threat to impose 50% tariffs on the EU triggered a classical risk-off move—a sell-off in BTCUSD and a rally in XAUUSD. Traders and long-term investors should keep a close eye on: the total market cap, excluding BTC fluctuations in VC funding headlines impacting regulatory frameworks in the U.S., EU, and Southeast Asia any news related to the ongoing trade disputes and the possibility of trade negotiations. Tactical patience will be essential this summer. Rushing in to buy Bitcoin now may be unwise, but carefully buying the dips is more reasonable. Key levels to watch are 105,000, 98,000, 94,000, 89,000, and 84,000. ___ Disclaimer: This content is for general informational purposes only and does not constitute investment advice, a recommendation, or an offer to engage in any investment activity.

The objective of the 2024 drilling is to increase confidence in the intensity of mineralization, location and lithological and structural controls in historical drilling for the Ringo, Holliday and Earp Zones. Economic Geology of Corral Precious and base metal mineralization at Corral is concentrated in structurally controlled northeast dipping siliciclastic and carbonate sedimentary rocks including (oldest to youngest) Cambrian Bolsa Quartzite, upper-Cambrian Abrigo Limestone, Devonian Martín limestone and Mississippian Escabrosa limestone and in Jurassic aged intrusions. The most intense mineralization occurs in the Abrigo Limestone (main host) and Bolsa Quartzite, which are intruded locally by a series of Jurassic (and possibly younger) mineralized intrusions including the Star Hill, Copper Bell and Sniveler porphyries, quartz latite sills, and cross-cutting mineralized breccia bodies. The Corral Copper Property includes the Holliday, Earp and Ringo Zones (northwest to southeast), which are related zones of discontinuously outcropping, locally high grade CRD, skarn and distal porphyry related mineralization and associated supergene enrichment that formed in the distal porphyry copper geological environment. A significant component of Intrepid’s discovery strategy at Corral is to leverage distal alteration and mineralization to vector toward one or more mineralized porphyry copper centers (see News Release dated April 15, 2025). The Ringo Zone is located at the southern end of a 3.5km long string of copper-gold-silver-zinc bearing carbonate replacement bodies (Figure 1). The Ringo Zone measures approximately 900m (northwest to southeast) by 800m (southwest to northeast) and contains favorable Abrigo Limestone (and Bolsa Formation), pre-mineral intrusions, alteration and copper-gold-silver-zinc replacement style mineralization and secondary enriched copper oxide zones that are locally high-grade.

HONG KONG SAR – Media OutReach Newswire – 27 May 2025 – In a rare convergence of economic and environmental expertise, three landmark studies released today by ADM Capital Foundation, HKUST and WWF-Hong Kong, presenting a transformative vision—Hong Kong can reinvent itself as Asia’s premier blue economy hub. The reports—Port 1.0 to Port 2.0 (HKUST), Blue Finance for a Blue Economy (ADMCF), and Valuing the Invaluable Blue (WWF-Hong Kong)—all agree that the city has a unique opportunity in this moment, wherein: Global shipping reforms are creating openings for blue finance leadership Port redevelopments can integrate ecological and economic value Marine ecosystems, long undervalued, are essential to regional prosperity and resilience Global shipping reforms – IMOs net zero emission and carbon pricing mandate will force fleet upgrades, fuel transitions and new financial risks. In parallel, the UN has announced an ambitious biodiversity framework to be achieved by 2030. Hong Kong, itself, is striving to re-assert itself as a maritime powerhouse. This alignment, the authors propose, creates an unprecedented opportunity to transform the city into Asia’s sustainable blue economy leader. At the heart of this transformation lies ‘Port 2.0’ – a visionary reimagining of Hong Kong’s waters as a multifunctional interface that connects sea, land, city, technology and people, and serve as platforms for innovation, environmental stewardship and civic life. “What makes this moment truly extraordinary is how these elements intersect with Hong Kong’s unique advantages. Our world-class financial ecosystem can mobilise the billions needed for maritime decarbonisation. Our strategic location positions us as the natural hub for green shipping business in Asia. And our existing port infrastructure provides the ideal testing ground for innovative solutions.” said Christine Loh, Chief Development Strategist, Institute for the Environment at HKUST and author of the paper “From Port 1.0 to Port 2.0: Hong Kong’s Next Leap to Evolving a Blue Economy Vision”. Hong Kong’s status as the world’s third-largest capital hub gives it unmatched potential to pioneer blue finance. As ADMCF’s Blue Finance report highlights, instruments such as blue bonds can mobilise capital to facilitate port decarbonisation, sustainable aquaculture and marine eco-tourism—transforming the city into Asia’s premier blue economy hub, aligning marine protection with economic prosperity. In 2023 there was a surge in blue bonds followed by continued growth in 2024, and Asia was the largest issuing region—led by China. “If Hong Kong were to issue blue bonds, this would not only signal the city’s commitment to improving its status as a leading international maritime hub but also accelerate the growth of blue finance, ensuring a future where economic prosperity and marine resilience go hand in hand,” said Kate Martin, the report’s lead author and sustainable finance consultant with ADMCF. This untapped potential aligns with the groundbreaking research in Valuing the Invaluable Blue. The WWF-commissioned study by the Chinese Academy of Sciences has, for the first time, quantified the staggering monetary value of the Greater Bay Area’s coastal ecosystems—revealing a Gross Ecosystem Product (GEP) worth RMB 4.9 trillion, equivalent to over 35% of the GBA’s GDP, with 73% contributed by marine ecosystems. “This valuation demonstrates our marine ecosystems’ critical, yet often overlooked, economic contributions,” said Lydia Pang, Head of Oceans Conservation at WWF-Hong Kong. “From climate regulation to disaster mitigation, these natural systems provide services worth over one-third of our regional GDP – services that should be factored into development decisions and anchor blue economy planning,” she said. “What’s more, our study shows that Hong Kong is uniquely positioned to adopt this ecosystem accounting framework. With strong data foundations, policy alignment, and technical readiness, we can localise and institutionalise marine GEP accounting to guide planning, investment, and conservation.” The authors’ combined focus on a blue economy vision integrates port development with marine conservation, biodiversity, climate resilience, recreation and the responsible use of ocean resources. It builds on China’s decades of marine policy leadership, where comprehensive frameworks – from ocean GEP systems to blue finance instruments – have laid the foundation for sustainable maritime development. “The window to developing a sustainable blue economy and to establish ourselves as the global leader in sustainable maritime commerce is open now, but won’t remain so indefinitely.” Said Sophie le Clue, CEO at ADMCF. “The question isn’t whether we can seize this opportunity, but whether we will.” Hashtag: #ADMCapitalFoundation The issuer is solely responsible for the content of this announcement.

Forum 66, Palace 66, and Olympia 66 are the first commercial developments in Liaoning Province to be powered by wind and solar energy HONG KONG SAR & SHANGHAI, CHINA – Media OutReach Newswire – 27 May 2025 – Hang Lung Properties Limited (SEHK stock code: 00101) (the “Company” or “Hang Lung”) announced that the Company has increased its portfolio of renewable energy-powered properties in mainland China from 50% to 80% of its operating properties. The three additional properties—Forum 66 and Palace 66 in Shenyang, and Olympia 66 in Dalian—have transitioned to renewable energy sources since May 1, 2025, and are the first commercial developments in Liaoning Province to achieve this milestone. Forum 66, Palace 66, and Olympia 66 are the first commercial developments in Liaoning Province to adopt green energy “This transaction marks a major step towards realizing Hang Lung’s 2050 net zero goal. With these latest pioneering renewable energy projects in mainland China, we are proud to continue leading this journey,” said Mr. Adriel Chan, Chair of Hang Lung Properties and Chair of the Sustainability Steering Committee. “We will continue to pioneer renewable energy initiatives, support the sustainability targets of our partners, and inspire others to accelerate their decarbonization efforts in line with China’s dual carbon ambitions.” The three properties have secured renewable energy from wind and solar sources through power purchase agreements aligned with China’s green energy policy framework. By the end of 2025, Hang Lung is expected to purchase a total of approximately 320 million kWh of renewable energy across eight properties.

SINGAPORE – Media OutReach Newswire – 27 May 2025 – Prudential Singapore (“Prudential”) has launched GenAI XPonential, a new programme in partnership with the Infocomm Media Development Authority (IMDA) to accelerate the adoption of Generative AI (GenAI) among small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs). Unveiled by Senior Minister of State for Digital Development and Information, Mr Tan Kiat How, at ATxEnterprise – an Asia Tech x Singapore (ATxSG) event held today – the programme is in support of the Digital Enterprise Blueprint and aims to equip SMEs with practical knowledge and real-world use cases to strengthen AI adoption. As part of the programme, SMEs will gain access to a series of up to 10 bite-sized explainer videos and up to four hands-on workshops co-created and hosted by Prudential and its Talent Engagement Ecosystem (TEE-Up)1 partner, Republic Polytechnic. The first two videos on GenAI-enabled Customer Engagement Chatbots and GenAI-enabled Sales & Marketing Content Creation will be available on IMDA’s CTO-as-a-Service platform for SMEs, and the remaining videos will be rolled out progressively in the second half of 2025. The complementary workshops offered as part of the programme are conducted by Prudential’s GenAI domain experts and Republic Polytechnic lecturers. Prudential has been a long-standing supporter of SMEs through its SME Skills Accelerator Programme2, which equips SMEs with the skills and resources to grow and innovate by upskilling and reskilling their employees. In 2022, the insurer had worked with Ngee Ann Polytechnic and ST Engineering to produce a digital commerce playbook to help SMEs kickstart their digital journey in a safe and secure manner3. Mr Ben Tan, Chief Distribution Officer, Prudential Singapore, said: “Having been a long-time supporter of SMEs, who are a key pillar of Singapore’s economy, we are proud to deepen our commitment by enabling them to gain access to the latest technologies such as GenAI to fuel business growth. Through practical explainer videos and hands-on workshops conducted by us and Republic Polytechnic, one of our Talent Engagement Ecosystem partners, we aim to equip SMEs with the knowledge and skills to apply GenAI meaningfully in their businesses. These efforts are part of the GenAI XPonential programme, delivered in partnership with IMDA, to help SMEs innovate, grow, and stay competitive in today’s digital economy.” Mr Johnson Poh, Assistant Chief Executive, Sectoral Transformation Group, IMDA, added: “In today’s fast-evolving digital landscape, it is vital to equip our SMEs with the tools and knowledge to harness GenAI effectively. IMDA welcomes the collaboration with Prudential Singapore to ensure that our SMEs can navigate the complexities of this emerging technology, gain the confidence to use GenAI to boost productivity, and remain competitive in an AI-driven economy.” Collaboration with students to bring GenAI to the fore Students from Republic Polytechnic’s Year 2 and 3 cohorts were engaged to develop the GenAI XPonential tech explainer videos. Guided by experts from IMDA and Prudential, these students explored real-world GenAI applications while honing their videography and editing skills. These students were engaged for their digital fluency and to encourage knowledge sharing. Singapore’s youth are among the most active users of GenAI, with 80 per cent4 using the technology at least once a week for tasks such as homework or school-related tasks. Ms Wong Wai Ling, Director, School of Infocomm, Republic Polytechnic, said: “This collaboration exemplifies how industry and education can come together to empower both students and SMEs in the GenAI space. Our students had a unique opportunity to translate classroom learning into practical outcomes, co-creating resources that will help local businesses harness the potential of emerging technologies. We are proud to support Singapore’s digital future by equipping youth with real-world skills while contributing to the nation’s broader upskilling efforts.” Mr Ben Tan added: “By involving youth in the creation of educational content for SMEs, the broader initiative nurtures the next generation of AI creators who are confident in using new technologies and eager to drive change. It also encourages intergenerational learning, where students support SMEs in the digital economy, building a future-ready ecosystem grounded in knowledge sharing and innovation.” This collaboration, supported by the National Youth Council, deepened students’ understanding of emerging technologies, served as a platform for them to apply their skills in a real-world setting, and is part of youth outreach initiatives aimed at helping SMEs upskill. 1 For more information, please visit: https://www.prudential.com.sg/innovation/tee-up 2 For more information, please visit https://www.prudential.com.sg/others/sme-skills-accelerator-programme 3 For more information, please visit: https://www.prudential.com.sg/about/newsroom/press-release/2022/prudential-singapore-boosts-support-for-smes 4 Source: https://www.ceiglobal.org/work-and-insights/investigating-parent-views-teen-use-generative-ai Hashtag: #PrudentialSingapore #IMDA #GenAIXPonential https://www.prudential.com.sg/https://www.linkedin.com/company/prudential-assurance-company-singaporehttps://www.facebook.com/PrudentialSingapore/ The issuer is solely responsible for the content of this announcement.
