Press Release
Raffles Financial Group Ltd (CSE: RICH) and CICADA Finance Partner to Launch Raffles Crypto Treasury
Singapore – October 23, 2025 – Raffles Financial Group Ltd (CSE: RICH) (“Raffles Financial”), a diversified financial services company listed on the Canadian Securities Exchange, today announced a strategic collaboration with CICADA Finance, a leading on-chain asset management protocol. Together, the two firms will launch the Raffles Reserve Treasury (“RRT”), an innovative digital asset designed to integrate high-growth cryptocurrencies into trade finance for IPO-ready companies.
A New Era of Digital Trade Finance
This collaboration bridges traditional corporate finance and decentralized finance (DeFi), creating a unique model for tokenized trade finance. The initiative combines Raffles Financial’s track record in public listings, compliance, and corporate finance with CICADA Finance’s expertise in tokenomics, Web3 asset structuring, and decentralized asset management.
Under this cooperation, both organizations will advance the structuring of tokenized assets, Real World Assets (RWA), smart contract issuance, token circulation mechanisms, settlement systems, and security and risk control frameworks. The goal is to unlock the exponential demand for crypto assets and decentralized financial markets while providing robust, institutional-grade financial products.

The Proposed Raffles Reserve Treasury (“RRT”)
The RRT will be issued through a Singapore-incorporated special purpose vehicle, leveraging Singapore’s progressive digital finance framework. As exemplified by Token2049, the world’s largest cryptocurrency conference, being held in Singapore during the first week of October. The conference brought together over 25,000 global investors to Singapore.
The RRT is designed to serve as a core value carrier, offering governance participation, platform access, and economic incentives to its holders. Inspired by strategies adopted by pioneers like MicroStrategy, Gamestop, the RRT will issue perpetual bond units to fund a diversified Cryptocurrency Treasury (CT) portfolio across assets such as Bitcoin, Ethereum, Ripple, Solana, and Chainlink.
The CT portfolio will act as collateral for both stablecoin issuance and revolving trade finance credit facilities, ensuring IPO-ready clients can accelerate growth while preparing for North American listings. For investors, this model generates value through arrangement fees and opportunities to purchase clients’ IPO shares at pre-IPO discounts.
Leadership Commentary
Dr. Charlie In, Chairman of Raffles Financial Group Ltd, said:
“The Raffles Reserve Treasury combines the rigor of traditional finance with the innovation of DeFi, enabling IPO-ready clients to secure scalable capital and stronger valuations for North American listings.”
Dr. In is a seasoned capital markets leader with decades of experience guiding companies to IPOs across Asia and North America.
Gary Yang, CEO of CICADA Finance, commented:

Mr. Yang is a veteran investor with 15 years in venture capital and funds-of-funds, having backed over 120 companies and 15 funds globally.

Press Release
Radiant Smiles Dental Care Introduces Comprehensive Teeth Whitening Services in Perth
Radiant Smiles Dental Care, a trusted provider of family and cosmetic dental services in Perth, has announced the introduction of a new range of professional teeth whitening services, enhancing its commitment to providing accessible and comprehensive dental care to the community. The newly launched treatments are designed to address common concerns about tooth discolouration and to offer patients a safe, clinically supported path to brighter smiles.
The new whitening services will be available at the practice’s Yokine location, complementing its existing array of dental care offerings that include general dentistry, cosmetic procedures, orthodontics, and emergency services. Radiant Smiles Dental Care is open seven days a week, providing patients with flexible appointment options, including extended evening hours for urgent needs.
According to the practice, the addition of teeth whitening services reflects both growing patient interest and advances in professional dental whitening techniques. The service aims to provide predictable results while prioritising patient safety and comfort.
Dr Anand Ponnusamy, Principal Dentist at Radiant Smiles Dental Care, commented on the launch, “Tooth discolouration can affect individuals at any age, often impacting confidence in social and professional settings. By introducing comprehensive whitening options, the goal is to provide treatments that are both effective and supported by sound clinical practice, ensuring that patients can make informed choices about their oral health and appearance.”
The whitening services will be delivered under the direct supervision of qualified dental professionals, ensuring that each treatment plan is tailored to the individual’s needs. The practice notes that the decision to expand into this area followed a review of available clinical evidence, patient feedback, and the suitability of whitening treatments as part of broader oral health management.
Teeth whitening, while cosmetic in nature, can also act as a motivating factor for patients to maintain good oral hygiene. By combining whitening treatments with routine check-ups and cleanings, the practice aims to support patients in achieving long-term dental health goals.
Radiant Smiles Dental Care highlights that not all whitening treatments are equal in safety or effectiveness. Over-the-counter options may lack the same level of professional oversight or quality control as treatments delivered in a clinical setting. The practice’s new offering seeks to address this gap by providing a controlled, personalised approach.
The expansion of services comes at a time when cosmetic dentistry continues to grow in popularity across Australia. While the decision to seek such treatments is personal, many individuals consider whitening to be a relatively simple and non-invasive way to enhance their appearance.
Dr Ponnusamy noted that the practice’s focus will remain on evidence-based care, even as it expands its cosmetic services. “Looking ahead, the vision is to continue integrating new treatments and technologies that support both function and aesthetics. Dentistry is evolving, and it is important to ensure that innovations are adopted thoughtfully, in ways that benefit patient health and align with long-term care priorities.”
Radiant Smiles Dental Care’s Yokine facility is equipped to provide a wide range of dental services under one roof, from preventive and restorative care to orthodontics and emergency treatment available until late in the evening. The addition of professional whitening is intended to strengthen its role as a comprehensive dental care provider for patients across Perth.
Radiant Smiles Dental Care, based at Shop 6/201 Flinders Street, Yokine WA 6060, offers a full range of dental treatments, including professional Teeth Whitening Perth. For further information or to arrange an appointment, the practice can be reached on (08) 9440 3654 or by email at admin@radiantsmiles.com.au.

Blockchain Transparency Niufo Addresses Italys 147M Crypto Security Gap with Non-Custodial Infrastructure
US-Registered Platform Launches MiCA-Ready Exchange as Italian Crypto Holders Face Rising Security Threats
Niufo CRYPTO GROUP LTD, a US-registered blockchain-driven cryptocurrency trading platform, has launched its exchange designed to address security vulnerabilities affecting Italian traders. With approximately 1.33 million Italian crypto holders managing assets valued between €1.9-2.6 billion as of 2025, the market faces persistent threats—Italian authorities blocked dozens of fraudulent platforms in late 2024, while media reports indicate losses of approximately €147 million to fake crypto trading schemes during the year.

The Italian market operates within a concentrated ecosystem where 94% of clients rely on large centralized exchanges, according to OAM’s Q4 2024 structural data. This concentration, coupled with the transition period following MiCA’s December 2024 implementation, creates heightened vulnerability. CONSOB’s 2024 investor survey revealed that while crypto asset holders doubled from 8% to 18% between 2022-2023, a significant portion of participants lacked sufficient understanding of associated risks—amplifying exposure to fraud and operational failures.
Addressing Italian Traders’ Security Requirements
Niufo centers on three transparency priorities identified through regulatory analysis: eliminating custody risk, ensuring transaction verifiability, and maintaining compliance clarity.
The platform implements blockchain-recorded transactions where every trade executes on-chain, enabling independent verification through public ledgers—meaning traders can confirm execution without relying on platform-controlled databases. Multi-signature wallet protocols require multiple authorization layers for fund movements, distributing control to prevent single-point compromise. Approximately 98% of platform assets remain in geographically distributed cold storage using Hardware Security Modules certified to FIPS 140-2 Level 3+ standards—isolating the majority of funds from internet-connected systems.
Non-custodial wallet architecture ensures traders retain complete private key control, addressing the custody failures that triggered recent industry losses. Users maintain direct blockchain access to assets rather than depending on platform solvency, eliminating the counterparty risk inherent in traditional exchange models. Smart contract automation executes pre-defined conditions without intermediary discretion, while multi-chain asset support enables traders to diversify across blockchain networks without fragmenting custody arrangements.
Italian Traders Benefit From:
- Complete Asset Control: Direct private key ownership eliminates platform insolvency exposure, addressing concerns heightened by historical exchange collapses
- Chain-Verifiable Execution: Independent transaction confirmation via blockchain explorers, replacing opaque internal record systems
- MiCA-Ready Compliance: Platform policies aligned with EU Markets in Crypto-Assets regulation effective December 2024, addressing the 138-entity VASP transition tracked by OAM through June 2025
- Distributed Security Architecture: Cold storage majority holdings with multi-signature requirements reduce online attack surface area
- Transparent Fee Structure: Published trading costs without hidden charges, addressing the pricing clarity gaps affecting the market’s 160,000+ active participants
Operating under FinCEN Money Services Business registration with Bank Secrecy Act compliance framework, Niufo implements Know Your Customer and Anti-Money Laundering procedures aligned with international standards. The platform maintains SEPA integration for Euro transactions, addressing the Italian market’s 4.3 million crypto-to-fiat conversion transactions recorded in Q4 2024.

With Italy’s crypto asset holdings representing a significant portion of the Central-Northern-Western Europe region—the world’s second-largest crypto economy at $987.25 billion in annual transaction volume—traders require infrastructure combining transparency with regulatory alignment. The platform currently supports spot trading for major cryptocurrencies and stablecoins including Euro-denominated pairs, with margin trading and API access available for advanced participants.
About Niufo CRYPTO GROUP LTD
Niufo CRYPTO GROUP LTD is a US-registered blockchain-driven cryptocurrency trading platform providing digital asset exchange services. The platform combines blockchain transparency, non-custodial architecture, and regulatory compliance frameworks. Operating under FinCEN MSB oversight with MiCA-ready policies, Niufo serves traders requiring verifiable transaction execution and custody-risk elimination.

Celebrating Tradition and Modern Elegance with Fresh Jasmine and Floral Jewelry
In a world increasingly dominated by synthetic accessories and artificial adornments, Al Ghadeer Flowers LLC is redefining bridal elegance and festive beauty by bringing back the timeless charm of fresh flower jewelry. From delicate flower bracelets and traditional gajras to exquisite haars (garlands) and bridal mala sets, Al Ghadeer Flowers is setting new standards in Dubai’s floral craftsmanship.
The company, headquartered in Deira, Dubai, has long been known for its dedication to the artistry of flowers. Now, it has expanded its offerings with a special focus on bridal jewelry made from fresh jasmine, mogra, mothiya, and other fragrant blossoms. This fresh flower jewelry not only embodies cultural heritage but also elevates modern weddings, festivals, and celebrations with a unique, organic touch.
The Beauty and Symbolism of Fresh Floral Jewelry
Flowers have always been a universal language of love, beauty, and blessings. In South Asian, Middle Eastern, and global cultures alike, jasmine (known locally as mogra or mothiya) has been celebrated for centuries as a flower of purity, grace, and devotion. Whether woven into gajras for brides or designed into mala garlands for weddings and cultural events, fresh jasmine holds a special place in traditional ceremonies.
At Al Ghadeer Flowers, expert artisans carefully handcraft each piece to highlight not just the flower’s beauty but also its fragrance, symbolism, and cultural essence. Brides across Dubai and the UAE now have the opportunity to wear living jewelry that reflects tradition while making a bold modern statement.
Fresh Flower Bracelets and Gajras: A Modern Classic
Among the most sought-after creations are fresh flower bracelets and gajras. These delicate adornments, traditionally worn by brides and bridesmaids, have now transcended their cultural boundaries to become popular in modern fashion circles.
– Gajras: Traditionally worn in hair or around the wrist, gajras made of fresh jasmine and mogra are both elegant and symbolic. They represent purity, beauty, and blessings for a new beginning.
– Flower Bracelets: Crafted to last throughout an event, Al Ghadeer’s bracelets bring a refreshing fragrance and a vibrant look. These are especially popular for engagements, mehndi nights, and bridal showers, adding natural charm to the occasion.
Al Ghadeer Flowers ensures that each bracelet and gajra is delicately woven to perfection, designed to last through the long hours of wedding festivities while retaining their fragrance and freshness.
Bridal Haar and Mala: The Centerpiece of Celebration
No wedding is complete without a grand floral mala (garland) or haar. For centuries, garlands have played an important role in South Asian and Middle Eastern weddings, symbolizing honor, acceptance, and union.
At Al Ghadeer Flowers, the bridal mala collection includes:
· Traditional Jasmine Malas: Crafted entirely of fragrant jasmine and mogra, perfect for rituals and ceremonies.
· Mixed Floral Haars: Combining roses, orchids, and jasmine for a bold, festive look.
· Custom Bridal Mala Designs: Tailored for the modern bride who wants to integrate tradition with individuality.
The fresh floral haars and malas are often customized for grooms and family members, ensuring that the entire wedding party is adorned in a consistent theme of floral elegance.
Jasmine, Mogra, and Mothiya: The Soul of Fresh Jewelry
The heart of Al Ghadeer’s fresh flower jewelry lies in jasmine. Known by different names across cultures – jasmine in English, mogra in Arabic, mothiya in South Asia – this flower is synonymous with romance, freshness, and spiritual connection.
· Jasmine’s Fragrance: Unlike artificial jewelry, jasmine releases a natural, calming scent, creating a serene ambiance for the bride and guests.
· Mogra’s Symbolism: Mogra has long been associated with love and purity, making it the perfect flower for bridal adornments.
· Mothiya’s Cultural Relevance: In South Asian weddings, mothiya gajras and malas have been cherished traditions, now reimagined for Dubai’s multicultural audience.
By incorporating these flowers, Al Ghadeer Flowers offers not just accessories but an experience of culture, nostalgia, and elegance.
Why Brides Choose Fresh Flower Jewelry
In Dubai’s diverse wedding landscape, brides are increasingly seeking unique, personalized, and sustainable alternatives to traditional gold or artificial jewelry. Fresh flower jewelry is now becoming the preferred choice for many reasons:
1. Natural Beauty: Nothing compares to the radiance of fresh blossoms.
2. Sustainability: Unlike artificial accessories, fresh flowers are eco-friendly and biodegradable.
3. Cultural Connection: Wearing floral jewelry connects brides to timeless traditions.
4. Affordability: Fresh flower jewelry offers luxury and elegance without the high cost of precious metals.
5. Fragrance and Freshness: Jasmine and mogra infuse the entire event with a delightful aroma.
Al Ghadeer Flowers ensures that each piece is crafted fresh on the day of delivery, giving brides confidence in both quality and longevity.
Craftsmanship and Customization
Each design from Al Ghadeer Flowers is handcrafted by skilled floral artists. Whether it’s a simple jasmine gajra, a grand bridal mala, or a modern flower bracelet, every piece is:
· Freshly curated using the best-quality flowers sourced locally and internationally.
· Customized to order, ensuring that brides and families get exactly the designs they envision.
· Delivered with care across Dubai and the UAE, guaranteeing freshness upon arrival.
