2021 BRICS Think Tank International Symposium Held in Xiamen: Grasp important development directions and promote practical cooperation in multiple fields
On June 10th, the 2021 BRICS Think Tank International Symposium, co-sponsored by the China Council for the BRICS Think Tank Cooperation and the Xiamen Municipal People’s Government, with the theme of “Joining Hands to Build an Innovation Center to Create a Model of BRICS Cooperation” was held in Xiamen. More than 200 think tank experts, scholars and industry representatives from the BRICS countries discussed the construction of the BRICS innovation center through online and offline methods, and jointly sought practical cooperation among the BRICS countries.

Xiamen is the venue for the ninth meeting of the leaders of the BRICS countries. In December last year, the innovation center of the BRICS Partnership on New Industrial Revolution was officially launched here. This year is the first year for the construction of the BRICS Innovation Center.
In the keynote speech at the opening ceremony, Guo Yezhou, Chairman of the China Council for BRICS Think Tank Cooperation and Vice Minister of the International Department of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China, shared some ideas and thoughts on the construction of the BRICS Innovation Center by the China Council. He addressed that to build the BRICS Innovation Center, we must adhere to true multilateralism, uphold the principle of extensive consultation, joint contribution and shared benefits, strengthen unity, collaboration and strategic docking, and create a win-win and shared cooperation platform. We must persist in open innovation, tap the potential of the BRICS countries in the new generation of information technology, deepen industrial cooperation, integrate innovative resources, and create a pioneering zone for innovation cooperation. It is necessary to adhere to the “three-wheel drive”, focus on the three major areas of policy coordination, talent training, and project development, and create a key link for pragmatic cooperation. It is also important to adhere to sustainable development and realize the “carbon peak and carbon neutral” roadmaps respectively through cooperation and create a new benchmark for green development.
On behalf of the Xiamen Municipal Party Committee and Municipal Government, Zhao Long, member of the Standing Committee of the Fujian Provincial Party Committee and Secretary of the Xiamen Municipal Party Committee, expressed warm congratulations on the convening of the seminar and extended a warm welcome to the guests attending the meeting in Xiamen. He mentioned that Xiamen hopes to work with the BRICS think tanks to uphold the BRICS partnership spirit of “openness, tolerance, cooperation, and win-win”, be a good “staff” to study and put forward constructive and operable policy recommendations; be a good “promoter” to tell the story of BRICS cooperation, and spread the voice of BRICS development; be a good “liaison” to sow the seeds of friendship, build bridges of cooperation, and promote the continuous deepening of exchanges and expansion of cooperation among BRICS countries.
Huang Haikun, the vice governor of Fujian Province, expressed that to build the BRICS innovation center in Xiamen is a major historical mission given to Fujian and Xiamen by the Party Central Committee and the State Council. He hopes that everyone can give full play to the role of think tanks in gathering talents, gather the wisdom of BRICS, and work together to build the Xiamen BRICS Innovation Center into a landmark and exemplary cooperation platform for the BRICS countries under the framework of the new industrial revolution partnership.
Anil Kishola, Deputy President of the New Development Bank, announced in his speech that the New Development Bank will actively support the construction of the BRICS innovation center, share best practices and experience, and help the BRICS cooperation and innovation base construction.
Jin Xin, Secretary-General of the China Council for BRICS Think Tank Cooperation and Director of the Research Office of International Department Central Committee of CPC, presided over the opening ceremony. The leaders of the relevant departments of the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology and the Ministry of Science and Technology, and the leaders of the BRICS think tanks Brazil, Russia, India, and South Africa also gave speeches or video speeches at the opening ceremony. Xiamen City leaders Chen Qiuxiong, Huang Wenhui, Huang Yanqiang, Huang Xiaozhou, Lin Jian and Huang Guobin attended the opening ceremony.
At the seminar held that day, participants from the BRICS think tanks, business, and financial circles conducted in-depth discussions on topics such as promoting the construction of the BRICS innovation center, promoting investment and trade facilitation, and promoting financial innovation cooperation.
A number of guests pointed out that the new round of technological revolutions and industrial changes such as artificial intelligence, big data, and quantum communications have brought new opportunities and new key links to BRICS innovation cooperation. The construction of the BRICS innovation center should take digitization, intelligence, and networking as important development directions, and strive to promote pragmatic cooperation in the fields of digital economy, smart manufacturing, and green and low-carbon.

Vanilla Gift Cards in 2026: Usage, Balance Verification, and Market Overview
Nigeria, 2nd Feb 2026 – Vanilla Gift Cards continue to play a significant role in the global prepaid card ecosystem. Widely used for online purchases, gifting, and digital subscriptions, these prepaid cards remain popular across multiple regions, including North America, West Africa, and other international markets. However, despite their broad recognition, Vanilla Gift Cards are not always straightforward to use, particularly in cross-border and online transaction environments.
As a result, secondary gift card trading platforms have become an increasingly relevant part of the digital payments landscape.

Understanding How Vanilla Gift Cards Work
Vanilla Gift Cards are prepaid cards typically issued under major payment networks such as Visa and Mastercard. They are available in both physical and digital formats and are preloaded with a fixed value. Because they are not linked to personal bank accounts, they are commonly used as alternative payment instruments.
While Vanilla Gift Cards appear uniform to consumers, industry professionals recognize that cards issued through different channels and banking partners may behave differently during online transactions. Factors such as issuing characteristics, security controls, and merchant acceptance policies can influence whether a card is successfully used on a particular platform.
Usage Limitations and Transaction Challenges
Although Vanilla Gift Cards are accepted by many merchants, users in certain regions often encounter limitations. These may include declined payments, restricted merchant access, or incompatibility with specific online platforms.
Such challenges are not unique to Vanilla Gift Cards. They reflect broader issues related to prepaid card usage across borders, where fraud prevention systems and regional payment policies play a central role. For many users, these restrictions reduce the practical usability of prepaid cards, even when the card itself remains valid and funded.

Secondary Market Activity and Sell Vanilla Gift Card
In response to these limitations, a secondary market for gift card trading has developed. Instead of attempting repeated transactions on restricted platforms, users increasingly choose to exchange unused gift cards for local currency through structured trading services.
In countries such as Nigeria and Ghana, Vanilla Gift Cards remain actively traded due to consistent demand and their recognition as reliable prepaid instruments. The growth of this market has led to the emergence of specialized platforms that focus on secure evaluation, verification, and exchange processes.
Platforms such as Migo – Sell Gift Cards operate within this ecosystem by providing structured mechanisms for converting prepaid cards into cash. Rather than treating all cards identically, such platforms assess cards based on multiple criteria, including card format, remaining balance, issuing attributes, and prevailing market conditions. This approach helps reduce uncertainty for users seeking legitimate and efficient exchange options.
Balance Verification as an Industry Standard
Verifying a Vanilla Gift Card balance is a standard step prior to use or exchange. Cardholders typically confirm balances through official balance-check channels to ensure accuracy.
Within secondary trading environments, balance verification is also a critical requirement. Platforms like Migo – Sell Gift Cards incorporate verified balance information into their assessment processes, enabling clearer valuation and more predictable transaction outcomes. This practice reflects broader industry standards aimed at improving transparency and user confidence.
Regional Access and Global Participation
The gift card trading market operates across multiple regions, with varying levels of access and processing efficiency. In West Africa, particularly Nigeria and Ghana, prepaid cards such as Vanilla Gift Cards are commonly exchanged due to their role as alternative payment tools in digital commerce.
Global platforms that support these regions illustrate how gift card trading has evolved from informal exchanges into structured digital services. By offering standardized processes and cross-border accessibility, platforms like Migo reflect the growing institutionalization of the gift card resale market.
Industry Context and Consumer Considerations
As prepaid cards continue to be integrated into global commerce, consumer awareness remains essential. Understanding that prepaid cards may function differently depending on issuing and transactional factors helps users make informed decisions about usage and exchange.
Equally important is the role of transparent and compliant platforms in supporting this ecosystem. Structured trading services do not eliminate all risks, but they provide clearer frameworks for users navigating the complexities of prepaid card usage in international markets.
Conclusion
Vanilla Gift Cards remain a widely recognized component of the global prepaid card market. While their flexibility makes them appealing, real-world usage limitations have contributed to the growth of secondary gift card trading platforms.
Within this evolving landscape, services such as Migo – Sell Gift Cards represent a structured response to user demand for secure, transparent, and efficient gift card exchanges. As digital payments continue to expand across regions, the role of such platforms is likely to remain an important part of the broader financial ecosystem.

CryptoEasily Issues Market Commentary and Operational Update Amid Changing Liquidity Conditions
London, United Kingdom — CryptoEasily, a digital asset computing services company, today released an operational and market context update addressing recent liquidity developments in global financial markets and their broader implications for digital asset infrastructure providers. The update outlines the company’s perspective on current macroeconomic conditions and confirms the continued stability of its platform operations.
Recent liquidity activity within the global financial system has contributed to shifting market conditions across a range of asset classes, including digital assets. While these developments do not indicate a definitive change in long-term market direction, they have influenced short-term sentiment and prompted renewed evaluation of structural fundamentals within the digital asset ecosystem.
CryptoEasily noted that market behavior is increasingly shaped by macroeconomic factors, liquidity availability, and infrastructure resilience rather than short-term speculative activity. As the digital asset sector matures, valuation dynamics are being assessed with greater emphasis on utility, settlement efficiency, and long-term sustainability.

Operational Overview
As part of its update, CryptoEasily confirmed the continued operation of its cloud-based digital asset computing platform, which enables users to access computing capacity without direct hardware ownership or maintenance. The company stated that its systems remain subject to routine internal controls, security reviews, and compliance procedures aligned with its operational standards.
The platform incorporates automated workload allocation and on-chain verification mechanisms designed to enhance transparency and operational integrity. CryptoEasily also confirmed that it maintains internal risk management protocols intended to support platform continuity under varying market conditions.
Market Context and Risk Considerations
Ongoing volatility across digital asset markets has led to increased discussion around sustainability, risk management, and long-term infrastructure planning. CryptoEasily emphasized that recent macroeconomic developments should be viewed as part of a broader market cycle rather than as indicators of immediate directional change.
The company noted that reference price levels commonly discussed within digital asset markets are typically cyclical markers rather than forecasts. As such, CryptoEasily stated that market participants continue to assess digital assets within the context of evolving economic conditions, technological development, and regulatory considerations.
Outlook
CryptoEasily concluded that while liquidity shifts may influence near-term sentiment, long-term market outcomes are likely to be driven by structural adoption, infrastructure reliability, and measured risk assessment. The company indicated that it will continue to monitor macroeconomic developments and their potential implications for digital asset infrastructure and computing services.
