BITGRIT DLT Foundation: The First Japanese-Rooted Crypto Asset Foundation in ADGM

Abu Dhabi, UAE (ARAB NEWSWIRE) — bitgrit, originally founded in Japan and now registered as an entity in the Abu Dhabi Global Market (ADGM), announced the establishment of the "BITGRIT DLT Foundation." This foundation represents the first instance of a Japanese-rooted company leveraging ADGM's regulatory framework to create a crypto asset foundation.

What is ADGM?

The Abu Dhabi Global Market (ADGM) is a free zone located in Abu Dhabi, UAE, and is known as an international financial center. ADGM provides a unique regulatory framework that actively supports fintech and blockchain-related businesses. In 2023, it introduced the world's first "DLT Foundation Scheme," designed to enhance transparency and reliability for crypto asset and distributed ledger technology (DLT) projects.

What is a DLT Foundation?

A DLT Foundation is a foundation scheme provided by ADGM, specifically tailored for projects involving crypto assets and DLT. This framework enables such projects to operate transparently and reliably. It also allows for the issuance and management of tokens in a legally authorized environment, providing significant advantages for projects prioritizing regulatory compliance.

bitgrit's Transition and Initiatives

Originally founded in Japan, bitgrit has now transitioned into an ADGM-registered entity, placing itself at the forefront of AI and blockchain innovation in the Middle East. The company connects a global community of over 35,000 data scientists and offers innovative services through its AI competition platform and an AI marketplace currently under development.

The newly established BITGRIT DLT Foundation will form the foundation for bitgrit's planned issuance of crypto tokens. These tokens will be utilized within the company's platforms, enabling AI agents to leverage AI models and datasets while facilitating transactions among users through token-based ecosystems.

Future Outlook

As an ADGM-registered company, bitgrit aims to achieve the following goals:

1. Token Issuance: Issue crypto tokens to build an ecosystem where AI agents can efficiently operate and interact.

2. UAE Certification: Work toward listing the tokens on the UAE's "Available Virtual Assets" list to enhance trust and adoption.

3. Global Expansion: Leverage ADGM's status as an international financial center to expand its reach from the Middle East to global markets.

"The establishment of the BITGRIT DLT Foundation is a significant milestone for us as a Japanese-rooted company operating under ADGM's regulations. By integrating AI agents and Web3 technologies, we aim to create a new ecosystem that delivers value to both users and businesses while ensuring transparency and reliability."

Summary

The establishment of the BITGRIT DLT Foundation highlights bitgrit's growth from a Japan-founded company to an ADGM-registered entity.
