  • Attention Raises $30M Series B to Build the AI System That Runs Revenue Teams — Not Just Records Them

    New York, USA, June 23rd, 2026, FinanceWire

    Round led by RTP Global; several of Attention’s own customers invested.

    Attention, the AI platform for revenue teams, today announced a $30 million Series B led by RTP Global, with participation from returning investors Aglaé Ventures, Eniac, and Alven, new investor Linea Ventures, and a group of angel investors drawn from Attention’s own customer base. The company will use the funding to expand its agentic offering and move further upmarket into enterprise revenue organizations.

    Most AI tools for sales watch the call and write up what happened. Attention takes the action – it drafts and sends the follow-up, updates the CRM, and runs the next play – and because it takes the action, it can tie the outcome back to its own work. That closed loop is the thing observation-only tools can’t do: if software only records and summarizes, it can never prove what it changed. Attention is built the other way around.

    The approach shows up in usage. Attention is now running more than 20 million agent actions per month for customers since launching the capability, and annual recurring revenue is up 4x year over year. As the platform has moved upmarket, average contract value has grown 10x over two years. The company now serves more than 500 customers, including Abridge, Scale, Lovable, Preply, and BambooHR.

    Earlier this month, co-founder and CEO Anis Bennaceur open-sourced a stripped-down version of what Attention does and posted it to LinkedIn. It drew more than 500 comments from people asking for access – a signal of how much demand sits in the gap between tools that record the call and a system that acts on it.

    Customers report outcomes that show up in revenue, not just in hours saved. Abridge, the healthcare AI company, credits Attention with 5x coaching efficiency while their sales organization experienced 4x growth. Unify improved its win rate 40%. Certificial cut its forecasting margin of error from 15% to 5%. Because Attention takes the action, each of these traces back to work the platform did. 

    “Attention serves as a fundamental operating layer across our go-to-market. It’s one of those win-win-win solutions — a win for the rep, a win for the company, and a win for managers. The ability to customize prompts and workflows has been a game changer for our forecasting accuracy and pipeline hygiene.” — Jeremy von Halle, VP of Revenue Operations, Abridge.

    “The simplest way I describe Attention is that we automate smarter work for sales teams over time. Most software in this space watches the call and writes up what happened. We take the next best action, and because we take it, we can see what actually worked and didn’t, and get smarter every time we do.” — Anis Bennaceur, co-founder and CEO, Attention.

    The funding goes toward Attention’s next step: an autonomous action engine that surfaces each rep’s highest-impact next moves, ranked by likely revenue, and executes the ones they approve, then learns from the outcome of every action it takes. 

    Attention was founded at the end of 2021 by Anis Bennaceur (CEO) and Matthias Wickenburg (CTO), who were formerly competitors in the previous startups they had co-founded. They saw the shift to LLMs coming early and started working together.

    The round also drew angel investments from leaders at companies that run on Attention, including Preply co-founder and CEO Kirill Bigai, Pavilion CEO Sam Jacobs, and executives at Engine, Abridge, and Scale AI.

    About Attention

    Attention is the AI platform for revenue teams. Its agents act inside the revenue workflow, drafting and sending follow-ups, updating the system of record, and running the next play, so teams can see, and prove, the outcomes the software drives. Founded in 2021 and headquartered in New York, Attention serves more than 500 customers, including Abridge, Scale, Lovable, Preply, Engine, and BambooHR. Users can learn more at attention.com.

  • MyTonWallet Rebrands to My Wallet After Expanding to 11 Blockchains

    Dubai, United Arab Emirates, June 23rd, 2026, Chainwire

    My Wallet, one of the leading TON-native wallets, now runs on Solana, Ethereum, Base, and eight other networks with built-in portfolio tracking, a native AI Agent, gasless transfers, and a top-7 CertiK security ranking

    MyTonWallet, an open-source self-custodial wallet launched on The Open Network in 2022, rebrands to My Wallet. The product serves over 9 million users and has expanded from a single-chain TON wallet to an 11-network platform covering TON, TRON, Solana, Ethereum, Base, BNB Chain, Polygon, Arbitrum, Monad, Avalanche, and Hyperliquid, with Bitcoin next on the roadmap. Existing wallets and seed phrases remain unchanged, with no migration required.

    Portfolio Tracking Across 11 Supported Chains

    My Wallet tracks net worth and portfolio performance across all supported networks inside the non-custodial wallet. Total Value, Total P&L, Daily P&L, and Portfolio Share charts show how balances and returns change over time with flexible date ranges, token-level filters, and key events. Chain, Asset Mix, and Staked breakdowns add a clear view of portfolio composition based on actual on-chain balances, and users can follow how their holdings changed in any base fiat currency they choose.

    Unlike many existing wallets, My Wallet integrates full portfolio tracking directly into the wallet experience across all 11 chains. While MetaMask keeps complete portfolio analytics in a separate web app, and Phantom’s built-in P&L covers Solana only, My Wallet brings net-worth and P&L tracking across every supported network into the wallet itself — with no third-party tools or browser dapps.

    Every Chain Works Like the Main Chain

    My Wallet keeps persistent high-frequency connections to all 11 blockchains, including EVM, making every chain feel native. Combined with optimistic UI techniques, it allows transfers to appear instantly, bringing a messenger-like experience. 

    Gasless transfers on both TON and Solana remove another friction point. Users can send USDC without holding any SOL, and the token being sent covers the fee. The same mechanism is in development for EVM chains.

    “Stablecoins already move more money than Visa — $33 trillion in 2025. For that to reach people outside crypto, the wallet has to stop being the hardest part, and the blockchain fees should be simplified,” says Alex Zinchuk, Founder of My Wallet.

    Transaction Simulation and Unified Activity History

    Before confirming any dapp transaction on any chain, My Wallet displays a simulation of the smart contract interaction — assets leaving the wallet, assets arriving, the contract being called. Full transaction history is available across all 11 chains, with activity from every supported network joined into one unified view. Users no longer need to switch between separate chain-specific interfaces to track what happened across their wallet.

    Built-In AI Agent

    My Wallet offers a native AI Crypto Agent inside the wallet. Users talk to it in natural language to send assets, swap tokens, and stake cryptocurrencies. The Agent can also answer questions about token prices, portfolio performance, and market signals like the Fear & Greed Index.

    Security Track Record

    My Wallet ranks No. 7 on CertiK’s Wallet Security Leaderboard at the time of publication — alongside MetaMask, Coinbase Wallet, and Bitget Wallet. The CertiK audit, open-source codebase, and reproducible builds have been in place since launch. A $100K bug bounty on CertiK SkyShield has been live since March 2024 with no critical vulnerabilities reported to date.

    My Wallet is self-custodial by design. The team cannot access user funds, seed phrases, private keys, passwords, or browser history.

    “We started My Wallet because we could not find a wallet we wanted to use ourselves — one where security and usability were both taken seriously, at the same time. The name was the last thing to catch up,” says Alex Zinchuk.

    Features in Development

    Bitcoin support, Ledger hardware wallet integration across all chains, staking and lending on every supported network, and a headless wallet mode for AI agents are in active development.

    My Wallet is built to be a self-custodial wallet people actually enjoy using: clear, fast, and beautiful enough to feel familiar even outside crypto. It keeps the power of a multichain wallet under the surface — with CertiK-audited security, open-source code, reproducible builds, and full user control.

    My Wallet is available on iOS, Android, macOS, Windows, Linux, and as a browser extension at mywallet.io.

    About My Wallet

    My Wallet (formerly MyTonWallet) is a self-custodial, open-source multichain wallet for TON, TRON, Solana, Ethereum, Base, BNB Chain, Polygon, Arbitrum, Avalanche, Hyperliquid, and Monad. Founded in 2022 and audited by CertiK with a top-7 Wallet Security ranking, it serves over 9 million users across mobile, desktop, web, and Telegram Mini App.

    Staking inside My Wallet is powered by Stakee, its own staking protocol, ranked among the top two TON DeFi protocols by TVL on DefiLlama, and top three by TVL on TON overall.

  • Menroc Asset Management Sees Growing Preference for Income-Focused Investments

    Melbourne, Victoria, June 23rd, 2026, FinanceWire

    Menroc Asset Management has reported a growing shift among its clients towards fixed income and income-focused investment strategies as investors seek greater certainty around returns amid ongoing economic and market uncertainty.

    According to the firm, a growing number of private and corporate clients have increased allocations to fixed income investments during the first half of 2026, with many reducing exposure to traditional growth-focused assets such as equities and other investments primarily reliant on capital appreciation.

    The trend comes as investors continue to assess the impact of elevated interest rates, inflationary pressures and ongoing discussions surrounding proposed capital gains tax reforms.

    “We have seen a noticeable increase in client enquiries and investment activity relating to fixed income and contractual income solutions throughout 2026,” said Mr. Michael Everett, Account Executive at Menroc Asset Management.

    “Many investors are seeking greater visibility over future cash flow and are placing increased importance on investments that can provide defined income payments rather than relying solely on future market appreciation.”

    Menroc Asset Management says the shift has been evident across a broad range of clients, including self-funded retirees, high-net-worth investors and corporate investors seeking to diversify portfolio risk.

    The firm believes that while equities remain an important component of long-term portfolio construction, investors are increasingly looking to balance growth objectives with investments capable of generating predictable income.

    “Investors are becoming more focused on portfolio resilience,” said Mr. Giles Harper, Account Executive at Menroc Asset Management.

    “We are seeing greater interest in investments that offer defined payment structures and more certainty around expected returns, particularly among clients seeking to preserve capital while maintaining income generation.”

    Menroc notes that higher interest rate settings have expanded the range of income-producing opportunities available to investors compared with the low-rate environment experienced in previous years.

    “In today’s market, investors have more options available when constructing income-focused portfolios,” said Mr. James Roberts, Account Executive at Menroc Asset Management.

    “The focus is increasingly shifting towards understanding the quality of income, issuer strength, underlying risk and how income-producing assets fit within a broader diversification strategy.”

    Menroc Asset Management expects demand for fixed income and contractual income strategies to remain strong throughout the remainder of 2026 as investors continue to seek portfolio diversification and greater certainty around investment outcomes.

    About Menroc Asset Management

    Menroc Asset Management is an independent Australian investment and advisory firm. The firm provides investment services across equities, FX, managed funds, structured products and derivatives.

  • STARTRADER Delivers Emergency Relief to 300 Earthquake-Affected Families in the Philippines

    Dubai, UAE, June 22nd, 2026, FinanceWire

    Aid initiative supports families in Sarangani Province following the 7.8-magnitude earthquake, reinforcing the importance of collective action during times of crisis.

    STARTRADER, through its charitable arm STARCARES, is delivering emergency relief to 300 families displaced by the 7.8-magnitude earthquake that struck Sarangani Province in the Philippines. The initiative focuses on Glan and Malapatan, two of the hardest-hit areas, where communities face urgent needs as long-term recovery begins.

    The scale of impact has been severe. Official reports confirm 65 fatalities, 1,447 injuries, and 36 people still missing. More than 57,252 homes were damaged, 10,023 of them completely destroyed, while roads, bridges, schools, healthcare facilities, and public infrastructure sustained extensive damage. Approximately 176,186 families remain affected by electricity outages.

    In coordination with local partners and government-supported relief channels, STARTRADER is distributing urgent supplies, including drinking water, food, hygiene kits, medicines, sleeping mats, blankets, and child care essentials. With families displaced, services interrupted, and infrastructure damaged, timely support is critical to helping communities manage immediate needs while long-term recovery continues.

    Effective disaster response depends on coordinated effort across communities, public institutions, the private sector, and volunteers. Through this initiative, STARTRADER joins broader relief efforts to help families stabilise their lives and begin the process of rebuilding.

    “It is impossible to see the impact of this earthquake without being deeply moved by the challenges families face. Behind every damaged home and school are families determined to rebuild. We stand with them, not only with supplies, but with solidarity and the belief that recovery begins when people come together. We are proud to stand alongside local communities and partners in Sarangani Province.” — Peter Karsten, Chief Executive Officer, STARTRADER

    The initiative forms part of STARTRADER’s broader CSR commitment under STARCARES, focused on practical, community-based impact across the regions where the company operates. Recently rebranded from STAR Foundation to STARCARES, the organization continues to expand its social impact efforts under the vision “Bringing STAR, Delivering Care,” through youth development, education, sports infrastructure, disaster relief, and community support programs across Asia and the Middle East.

    As recovery efforts continue, STARTRADER calls on businesses, institutions, and communities to join broader relief efforts and help the families of Sarangani Province rebuild with dignity, stability, and hope.

  • IUX Releases Educational Analysis on How Economic Volatility May Influence Force Sell Risk in Leveraged Trading

    Ebene Cybercity, Mauritius, June 19th, 2026, FinanceWire

    IUX has released an educational analysis examining how periods of heightened economic volatility, particularly following major macroeconomic announcements, may influence Force Sell risk in leveraged trading. The publication comes as recent economic data releases have once again highlighted the impact that unexpected market movements can have on leveraged positions when outcomes diverge significantly from market expectations.

    From central bank rate decisions to inflation reports and labor market data, financial markets often experience rapid repricing as investors adjust their outlooks. While such events may create trading opportunities, they can also increase exposure to risk for participants using leverage across foreign exchange, commodities, and index markets.

    Economic announcements such as Consumer Price Index (CPI) releases, Non-Farm Payrolls (NFP), Gross Domestic Product (GDP) reports, and Purchasing Managers’ Index (PMI) data are among the most closely monitored indicators by market participants. When actual results differ materially from consensus forecasts, price movements may accelerate within a short period of time, potentially affecting margin levels across leveraged positions.

    According to market observers, periods of elevated volatility may increase the likelihood of stop outs, also known as force sells or forced liquidations. These automatic risk-management mechanisms are commonly used by trading platforms to close positions when account equity falls below predefined margin requirements.

    The process is designed to help limit further losses and, in some cases, may reduce the risk of account balances becoming negative during extreme market conditions.

    Industry data has consistently shown that leverage can significantly amplify both gains and losses. While leverage allows traders to gain larger market exposure with a relatively small capital outlay, it may also accelerate equity drawdowns when markets move against open positions.

    As a result, risk management practices continue to be a key focus among experienced traders. Maintaining sufficient margin buffers, monitoring economic calendars, applying stop-loss strategies, and sizing positions appropriately are commonly cited approaches for navigating periods of heightened uncertainty.

    Trader engagement with economic-event-related content may increase around major macroeconomic announcements, as market participants often focus more closely on such events during these periods. This may reflect growing awareness among retail traders regarding the relationship between market volatility, leverage, and account risk management.

    Economic events can be significant drivers of short-term market volatility. During these periods, understanding how margin requirements and leverage work may help traders better assess and manage their market exposure.

    Market participants increasingly recognize that successful trading involves more than identifying potential opportunities. Risk management, particularly during major economic announcements, remains a critical component of long-term participation in financial markets.

    While no strategy can eliminate risk entirely, educational awareness of concepts such as margin levels, stop out thresholds, and leverage mechanics may contribute to more structured decision-making during volatile market conditions.

    About IUX

    IUX is a global multi-asset trading platform. IUX Markets (MU) Ltd is regulated by the FSC Mauritius (License: GB22200605).

  • PremiumBlock Launches Non-Custodial Risk Hub for User-Created Prediction Markets, Perps and Web3 Poker

    Stockholm, Sweden, June 19th, 2026, Chainwire

    PremiumBlock brings leveraged prediction markets, liquid 24/7 FX perpetuals and Web3 poker together in one wallet-native platform via premiumblock.org

    PremiumBlock today announced the launch of its non-custodial risk hub for decentralized prediction markets, perpetual futures and Web3 poker, giving crypto users one wallet-native destination to create markets, trade outcomes, access perps and participate in on-chain poker without relying on a centralized custodian.

    PremiumBlock is built around a simple idea: the next generation of crypto speculation will not be limited to order books or one-directional prediction markets. Users want to price real-world events, express conviction with leverage, trade crypto volatility, and control their bankroll from the same wallet. PremiumBlock brings those use cases together in a single interface designed for speed, maximal liquidity and instant withdrawals.

    The platform’s prediction market layer allows users to create and participate in markets around crypto, sports, politics, culture, macro events and world news. Unlike platforms where market creation is tightly curated, PremiumBlock is designed for user-created markets, giving communities the ability to surface the questions they believe deserve liquidity.

    PremiumBlock also supports leveraged prediction-market positions, with up to 2.5x leverage available on selected markets. The feature gives experienced users a way to express stronger conviction on event outcomes while operating inside a defined collateral framework. As with any leveraged product, participants should understand volatility, liquidation risk, and market-resolution rules before entering a position.

    Alongside prediction markets, PremiumBlock offers crypto perpetual futures for traders who want long or short exposure without traditional expiry dates. The perps layer brings a familiar derivatives format into the same wallet-native environment as the platform’s event markets, reducing the need for users to move capital between separate prediction-market, exchange and gaming applications.

    PremiumBlock’s Web3 poker product adds a third pillar to the platform’s risk ecosystem. Built for crypto-native users who value bankroll control, the poker experience is designed around fast deposits, instant withdrawals and non-custodial fund management. The goal is to offer a transparent alternative to legacy poker rooms where withdrawal delays, account controls and operator custody can create unnecessary friction.

    “PremiumBlock was built for users who want direct market access without waiting on approvals, custodians or withdrawal queues,” said Baqir Hussain at PremiumBlock. “Prediction markets, perps and poker all revolve around information, timing and risk. Bringing them together in one non-custodial environment gives users a more flexible way to participate in the markets they understand.”

    PremiumBlock enters the market as prediction platforms continue to move further into mainstream crypto conversation. Polymarket helped popularize event markets for crypto-native users, while Kalshi brought regulated event contracts into broader public discussion. PremiumBlock expands the category with a model focused on user-created leveraged markets, perpetual futures and wallet-based bankroll control.

    The platform is available now for users seeking a crypto-native environment where event markets, leverage, perps and poker can exist side by side. PremiumBlock does not provide investment advice. Users are responsible for understanding applicable laws, smart contract risk, market volatility and the rules of any market or game before participating.

    About PremiumBlock

    PremiumBlock is a non-custodial risk hub for decentralized prediction markets, perpetual futures and Web3 poker. The platform combines user-created event markets, up to 2.5x leverage, crypto perps and instant withdrawals in a wallet-native experience designed for crypto users who want direct control over funds.

  • Stratosphere, Pudgy Penguins and Streamex Host Founders Table VIP Dinner During ETHConf 2026 and NYC Tech Week

    New York, United States, June 18th, 2026, Chainwire

    Stratosphere, Pudgy Penguins and Streamex hosted a private Founders Table VIP Dinner in New York City during ETHConf 2026 and NYC Tech Week, bringing together leaders across digital assets, tech, AI, traditional finance and institutional capital.

    The invite-only dinner took place on June 9th and gathered a curated room of founders, operators, funds, C-level executives and institutional leaders for an intimate evening of dinner and conversation.

    Guests in attendance included leaders from Citi, BitMine, BitGo, Mirae Asset Securities USA, Experian, Pyth Network, Space and Time, MegaETH, B3, Stable, Antler, Delphi Digital, Fun, Linera, Vanta Trading, Streamex, PolyData, Horizen Labs, World Foundation, Zipcode, OpenLedger, Onyx, Definitive, Notalone Ventures and more.

    The Founders Table format is intentionally simple: a selected guest list, a private room and no stage agenda. The goal is to bring the right people together in a setting where conversations can happen naturally.

    The dinner was hosted by Stratosphere with Pudgy Penguins and Streamex. Stratosphere brought its network across founders, operators, investors and institutional teams. Pudgy Penguins added one of the strongest consumer brands and communities in digital assets. Streamex brought the institutional and real-world asset side of the conversation, with its focus on tokenized gold and commodity markets.

    The Stratosphere team and its CEO, Hassan Shaikh, have continued to build Founders Table into a private dinner series around major industry conferences. After previous editions during Digital Asset Summit and Consensus, the New York dinner continued the same idea: high-quality rooms, selected attendance and conversations that are hard to recreate on a conference floor.For Stratosphere, the dinner reinforces the company’s position as an ecosystem partner for leading brands across tech, finance and digital assets. Established projects work with Stratosphere to deepen cultural relevance, strengthen market narratives and connect with founders, investors, institutions and operators across the industry.

    “I’m optimistic about the next phase of digital assets, especially around the tokenization of commodities,” said Hassan Shaikh, CEO of Stratosphere. “These dinners give us a way to bring funds, institutions, and founders into the same room to talk about where the market is heading.”

    The Founders Table series is expected to continue around major global conferences throughout the year, with future editions focused on bringing together founders, capital, institutions and leading brands in private, relationship-driven rooms.

    For those interested in attending or getting involved in future Founders Table editions, reach out to the Stratosphere team.
