Antalpha announces a strategic investment in Tether Gold to expand into a new track of institutional lending products.

Singapore, May 27, 2025 - Antalpha Platform Holding Company (NASDAQ: ANTA) (hereinafter referred to as "Antalpha" or "the Company"), a financial technology platform listed on NASDAQ, today announced several strategic initiatives to strengthen its financial reserve plan and expand its product service capabilities.

Strategic Allocation Gold RWA (XAU₮)

Antalpha plans to allocate up to ₮40 million equivalent of Tether Gold (XAU₮) at market price in phases from now until June 30, 2026. The company regards this round of allocation as a long-term strategy to hedge macroeconomic fluctuations, and also hopes to further enrich the collateral structure of the platform by introducing assets with stable value anchoring, so as to provide stable financing channels for institutional customers in an uncertain market environment.

Antalpha believes that XAU₮ holds significant strategic value in institutional asset allocation, especially in maintaining asset stability during market volatility, while supporting a rich array of financial application scenarios. In the future, XAU₮ will become a cornerstone collateral asset in Antalpha's lending architecture, assisting the Prime platform in expanding its financing business while enhancing its robustness and ability to withstand risks.

XAU₮ Product Integration Plan

Antalpha plans to purchase XAU₮ and use it as collateral for digital assets to support the company's lending operations and ongoing funding arrangements. To align with this strategy, Antalpha's risk control and product teams are collaboratively advancing multiple functional upgrades of the Antalpha Prime platform, focusing on the optimization of multi-party computation (MPC) capabilities and account management features.

In addition, Antalpha plans to launch near real-time market information of XAU₮ and the corresponding physical gold holdings on its official website, providing near real-time market data for XAU₮, further enhancing asset transparency and increasing customer trust.

Multi-asset collateral layout to support business scaling and risk control system upgrade

Antalpha will continue to focus on its core lending business and build a scalable financing model with long-term growth potential. In addition to the current acceptance of Bitcoin and mining rigs as collateral, the company plans to further expand the serviceable market and introduce new collateral assets, including XAU₮ and GPUs for AI computing, to create a more flexible and scalable digital asset lending system. In addition, Antalpha will also deepen its business relationship with its partner Northstar and support its launch of Ethereum margin loan service on the Antalpha Prime platform, further expanding its lending support capabilities for Ethereum assets.

• XAU₮ Mortgage: Accepting XAU₮ as collateral to enhance the stability of collateral value in supply chain financing scenarios;
• AI Computing Power Financing: Providing financing solutions backed by GPUs for institutional clients, supporting AI computing power investments.
• Ethereum Margin Loan: Provided by Northstar on the Antalpha Prime platform, it further expands lending capabilities based on existing Bitcoin collateral loans to meet the financing needs of users in the Ethereum ecosystem.

"We have always built Antalpha with a long-term perspective, adhering to the core principles of transparency, prudence, and risk management," said Antalpha's CFO Paul Liang. "The digital gold strategy and new lending product line we launched reflect Antalpha's continuous listening to customer needs, leading the digital asset financing ecosystem with institutional-level innovative solutions, and building a more robust and sustainable financial infrastructure system."

This series of new initiatives further solidifies Antalpha's leading vision as a crypto-native infrastructure service provider and continues to drive the development of the digital asset financing industry in a trusted role.
