Innovating Financial Data Accessibility
According to the announcement, the integration between AMINA Bank and Pyth Network is designed to provide enhanced data accuracy to the DeFi community. Anes Fific, COO of AMINA Bank, stated that this partnership marks a significant milestone in their effort to meld the realms of traditional finance and Web3 technologies.
By contributing their digital asset price data to Pyth Network, AMINA Bank supports the infrastructure that underpins informed decision-making in crypto and DeFi spaces.
This collaboration also positions AMINA Bank as a trailblazer among banking institutions in adopting and adapting to decentralized technologies. As the first banking entity to contribute to Pyth Network’s community of data providers, AMINA is setting a precedent for how regulated financial entities can engage with and benefit from decentralized financial ecosystems.
Michael Cahill, CEO of Douro Labs, commented on the partnership, noting the potential for new business opportunities it creates for AMINA Bank without significant overhead costs. Cahill particularly noted:
“As Pyth Network expands its on-chain financial price data offerings for smart contract developers, we are pleased to welcome AMINA Bank to the community of data providers. By providing this data, AMINA Bank is able to generate an entirely new revenue stream for their business without incurring significant costs.”
Expanding Horizons in Digital Asset Management
AMINA Bank has been at the forefront of digital asset management since securing a Swiss banking and securities dealer license in August 2019. With operational hubs in Switzerland, Abu Dhabi, and Hong Kong, AMINA combines a broad spectrum of financial services with stringent security measures, providing a unique value proposition in the global market.
Meanwhile, Pyth Network, established in April 2021, has quickly ascended as a substantial provider of financial data. It supplies over 500 real-time price feeds across various asset classes to more than 50 blockchain ecosystems, highlighting its role as a pivotal player in the financial oracle space.
