Animoca Brands will focus on stablecoins and RWA in 2026, planning to go public on Nasdaq through a reverse merger

According to The Block, Animoca Brands' Chief Strategy Officer Keyvan Peymani recently stated in an interview with CNBC that the company will focus on developing stablecoins and real-world asset (RWA) tokenization business in 2026. "We will vigorously promote our stablecoin program and launch the RWA market, which is a completely new area for us," Peymani said.

In August this year, Animoca established a joint venture in Hong Kong called Anchorpoint Financial with Standard Chartered Bank and Hong Kong Telecom, and plans to apply for a local stablecoin issuance license. Additionally, the company is collaborating with Fosun Wealth and FinChain to connect traditional finance in Asia with Web3 by distributing Fosun's RWA products. Furthermore, Animoca plans to go public on NASDAQ next year through a reverse merger with Singapore fintech company Currenc Group.
