Coinsilium Group Limited: Yellow Network Progress and Upcoming Token Launch

Coinsilium Group Limited (COIN)
Coinsilium Group Limited (“Coinsilium” or the “Company”) Strategic Investment Update: Yellow Network Progress and Upcoming Token Launch Gibraltar, 13 May 2025 – Coinsilium Group Limited (AQUIS:COIN, OTCQB:CINGF), the Web3 investor, advisor, and venture builder is pleased to provide the following strategic update regarding the progress of Yellow Network (“Yellow”), a Layer-3 decentralised clearing network for cryptocurrency trading infrastructure, in which the Company holds a vested interest via a Simple Agreement for Future Tokens (SAFT). Highlights
Development Timeline and Upcoming Token Launch One of the most groundbreaking features of the Yellow Network is its ability to enable trustless transactions—a transformative concept in the world of global trading. Traditionally, business is only conducted between parties who trust each other, but this reliance on trust is a limiting factor, especially in fragmented and fast-moving markets. By leveraging state channel technology, Yellow creates an environment where counterparties can trade securely and instantly without the need for trust. This trustless architecture—much like Bitcoin’s original breakthrough for value transfer—removes the need for intermediaries or custodians, ensuring that the decentralised nature of each transaction is embedded in the technology itself. The result is a trading ecosystem where value can be streamed in real-time, profits can be distributed continuously, and the global marketplace can be dramatically expanded beyond traditional boundaries. Yellow continues to advance steadily in its development roadmap. The Yellow Protocol is set to engage over 10,000 participants worldwide by the end of 2025, focusing on retail and institutional traders looking for streamlined, cross-chain trading infrastructure. Based on public statements made by the Yellow team to its community and the broader market, the $YELLOW token launch is currently projected to take place within the next two months, however, this timeline is indicative only and should not be relied upon, as it remains subject to change due to market conditions and other external factors. Clearing fees on the network are paid in $YELLOW tokens and are automatically directed to the Reserve Vault to uphold system integrity. As Alexis Sirkia, Chairman of the Yellow Network, notes, this design reflects Bitcoin’s core philosophy of building trustless financial infrastructure. In the United States, the token sale is expected to be conducted in accordance with Regulation D of the Securities Act, providing a compliant framework for participation by accredited investors in that jurisdiction. This structure reflects Yellow’s commitment to regulatory alignment in key markets, particularly the U.S., while the broader token distribution is expected to include participation from global markets in accordance with applicable local laws. Based on these statements and the visible progress the project is making, Coinsilium is encouraged by the momentum and views the forthcoming launch as a potentially significant milestone for Yellow and the broader digital asset ecosystem. Alexis Sirkia, has previously expressed the view that the scale and ambition of this project position it among the most notable network launches since the early years of the Ethereum era (2015/18). While this represents his own perspective, Coinsilium recognises the robust technical foundations and strategic relevance of Yellow Network’s architecture, particularly as institutions begin to seek compliant access to decentralised market infrastructure. U.S. Regulatory Shifts Support Yellow Network’s Institutional Integration Potential Recent developments in the U.S. regulatory landscape are paving the way for deeper integration between decentralised finance (DeFi) and traditional banking — a trend highly relevant to Yellow Network and its institutional infrastructure ambitions. Key updates include:
These regulatory changes are materially lowering barriers to entry for institutions seeking to engage with crypto-native infrastructure, including custody, settlement, and token-based products — precisely the categories of financial activity that Yellow Network is designed to support. Yellow’s design — enabling real-time, cross-chain settlement through trustless clearing infrastructure — aligns strongly with emerging institutional needs. As banks and financial services providers move to meet demand for digital asset services, Coinsilium believes Yellow is well-positioned to become a key layer within the evolving financial architecture. Coinsilium’s Investment Interest in Yellow As an early-stage investor, Coinsilium participated in Yellow’s strategic investment round with a US$200,000 investment under a SAFT structure in April 2022. While the precise quantum of tokens allocated under this agreement cannot yet be disclosed, we anticipate being in a position to provide further details following the official launch and token listing. On 17 September 2024, Yellow Network announced that it had secured USD 10 million in seed funding, led by Ripple Co-Founder and Silicon Valley technology pioneer Chris Larsen, at a post-money valuation in excess of USD 200 million. This represents a significant uplift relative to the valuation at which Coinsilium made its early-stage investment in April 2022. Should Yellow begin to realise its intended adoption and utility across the decentralised finance and institutional trading landscape, the Company believes the investment has the potential to deliver transformational long-term value for Coinsilium. Forward Outlook and Shareholder Value Creation The Yellow protocol is targeting a critical layer of infrastructure — namely trustless, cross-chain settlement and decentralised clearing — which sits at the heart of the emerging global digital asset economy. As regulatory conditions improve and institutional interest accelerates, we believe that infrastructure providers capable of delivering scalable, compliant solutions will attract disproportionate market attention and value. While any immediate post-launch impact will depend on broader market conditions and liquidity dynamics, the strategic relevance and ambition of the Yellow Network place it within a category of projects that, if successful, have historically supported multi-billion-dollar valuations. From Coinsilium’s perspective, this represents a rare opportunity with the potential to redefine the Company’s value trajectory in the coming cycles. Coinsilium continues to closely track the progress and momentum of Yellow Network with a strong conviction in its technical achievements and market potential. Execution is one of the most critical and difficult aspects to get right in any venture, and what gives us particular confidence in Yellow is the clear evidence that this is being delivered. The team’s ability to meet key milestones and maintain operational focus is a strong validation of the project’s direction. This investment aligns closely with our strategy of backing high-impact, foundational blockchain projects capable of delivering meaningful long-term value for our shareholders. We also note that projects of comparable ambition and infrastructure scope — particularly those focused on critical trading and settlement infrastructure in the crypto ecosystem — have historically commanded significant valuations once market traction has been established. Notable examples include:
Each of these projects has introduced foundational infrastructure solutions, similar in ambition and technical complexity to the aims of Yellow Network. Their success highlights the scale of market opportunity available to protocols that deliver meaningful improvements in network interoperability, settlement efficiency, and trustless coordination between market participants. As such, Yellow represents a compelling example of the kind of opportunity Coinsilium seeks to support — infrastructure-layer innovation with real-world applicability and institutional relevance. We encourage shareholders and market observers to continue monitoring developments closely, particularly as we approach Yellow’s anticipated token launch. Update on Forza and Bitcoin Treasury Strategy In parallel to the progress with Yellow, shareholders are reminded of the Company’s recent announcement on the development of Forza!, a wholly owned subsidiary of Coinsilium, established to implement a Bitcoin-focused treasury strategy powered by automated yield optimisation technologies. Forza! represents an important part of Coinsilium’s growing strategic focus on long-term digital asset value creation and institutional-grade financial tooling. This initiative aligns with the Company’s belief in Bitcoin as an emerging global store of value and is designed to deliver capital efficiency, transparency, and sustainable yield opportunities within the framework of a compliant treasury platform. For full details of the Forza initiative, shareholders are encouraged to refer to the Company's regulatory announcement dated 28 April 2025, available at: Further updates will be provided in due course in accordance with our regulatory disclosure obligations. The Directors of Coinsilium Group Limited take responsibility for this announcement.
