MetaPay-Open the Era of Meta Payment
Since the birth of mankind, we seem to have never experienced lasting peace and prosperity. We have tried our best to build one civilization after another, but because of lack of trust and coordination, it always disappeared immediately. In the evolution of the universe, humans have walked for millions of years, but even though they have faced countless difficulties together, they still cannot understand each other in the end.
Just when we were about to lose confidence, the emergence of blockchain relighted our hopes. The greatness of decentralized consensus is that code is more reliable than human nature, and “Code is Law” can last the development of civilization. Decentralization allows independent thoughts to shine like stars, and at the same time allows trillions of individuals to reach a commendable consensus on the identification of rules and trends, and enable the collaboration between humans to reach an unprecedented height and breadth.
In the collaboration between many humans, MetaPay shines with the brightest light, guiding us towards eternity.
Why is MetaPay followed by the public?
We know that the existing global payment system relies on the establishment of various centralized governments, central banks and some third-party payment institutions. There seems to be no problem with the existing payment system, it has very fatal flaws.
Firstly, the fully centralized governance system makes the system very easy to be attacked by hackers, and once it is attacked, it will cause catastrophic consequences. Secondly, the high transfer fees and management fees have seriously harmed the interests of users. Thirdly, when it comes to cross-border transfers and payments, the speed and efficiency will be greatly reduced, which is not conducive to the development of commercial trade.
Based on these market pain points, the founding team of MetaPay put forward the idea of meta-financial payment.

Meta Finance, derived from Metaverse, is committed to the construction of virtual and real payment infrastructure,is a safe and efficient Meta financial payment ecosystem based on the Ethereum Layer 2 expansion protocol developed by genius blockchain technology geeks. The main direction is cross-chain payment and ecological construction of virtual assets, including decentralized payment , pledge, liquidity mining, NFT aggregator, etc.
The reason why MetaPay can carry the efficient and complicated payment requirements is because of its strong cryptographic algorithm. It uses the discrete logarithm encryption and elliptic curve encryption which are commonly used in modern public key crypto systems. At the same time, it uses the non-interactive zk-SNARKs zero-knowledge proof system to completely address the issue of transactions being traced to expose user privacy.
MetaPay adopts the Layer 2 technology based on Ethereum, and achieves a flash payment experience comparable to Internet products through expansion of the off-chain channel. In addition to the extremely fast payment experience, there is no handling fee in the off-chain channel, which effectively solves the problems of slow speed and high gas fee of the Ethereum.
It is mainly achieved through the following three aspects:
Two-way payment channel
Two participants create a ledger entry on the blockchain, which requires the two participants to sign any fund expenditures. Both parties create transactions that return ledger entries to their respective allocations, but do not broadcast them to the blockchain. They can update the personal distribution of ledger entries by creating many transaction expenditures from the current ledger entry output. Only the latest version is valid, which is enforced by smart contract scripts that can be analyzed by the blockchain. By broadcasting the latest version to the blockchain, any party can close the entry at any time without any trust or custody.
Lightning Network
By creating a network of two-party ledger entries, you can find a path across the network, similar to routing data packets on the Internet. The nodes on the path are not trusted because the payment is executed through a script that enforces atomicity (the entire payment succeeds or fails) by decrementing the time lock. In order to expand Lightning Network in Layer 2, MetaPay incorporates two basic protocols, RSMC (Revocable Sequential Maturity Contract) and HTLC (Hash Clocked Contract) in the transaction verification process of the underlying protocol which is to build the Fund pool on Layer 2 and the establishment of payment channels.
The Lightning Network on Layer 2 has many advantages. The first is instant determinism. As long as the signatures of all parties pass the status update, the status will be “confirmed” without waiting for block confirmation on the blockchain; Secondly, The status update is off-chain, and peer-to-peer communication can guarantee privacy. Only the final status will be submitted to the blockchain. Finally, there is a low gas fee. The Lightning Network only needs to settle and clear the fees on the blockchain when the channel is opened and closed. At other times, no matter how the two parties update in the channel, the transaction is free.
Blockchain arbitration mechanism
It is possible to conduct transactions outside the blockchain without restrictions. It is also possible to conduct off-chain transactions with the confidence that it is executable on the blockchain. This is similar to the way one person enters into many legal contracts with others, but there is no arbitration every time a contract is signed. By making transactions and scripts parseable, smart contracts can be executed on the blockchain. Only in the case of non-cooperation, arbitration will be intervened. But for blockchain, the result is certain.

There is no doubt that the technical team of MetaPay understands the pain points of the current market very well. Through the above three points, MetaPay can completely break the congestion of existing Ethereum network transactions and achieve the best transaction speed in the entire network.
The MetaPay system with advantages such as instant payment, high scalability, low cost and cross-chain will help mankind get rid of the shackles of the existing payment system and realize the ultimate dream of payment freedom.
If you think MetaPay’s planning stops at payment, then you are wrong. After completes the payment infrastructure, it will use Meta NFT as the starting point to fully deploy the metaverse ecology.
Let’s first look at the layout of Meta NFT. It aims to build the world’s largest NFT asset and financial derivatives trading platform with the richest ecology and the strongest technical strength.
Therefore, Meta NFT is integrating more than 100 animation IP and 1,000 global artists and collecting more than 5,000 contemporary artworks as a reserve. Users will be free to trade NFT assets including artwork and real estate in Meta NFT.
In addition to NFT asset trading, Meta NFT allows users to mint their custom NFT assets.
Users can directly create NFTs in Meta NFT Layer 2, and the changes in the state of the world in the system are similar to recharging NFTs. Web, Mobile App and API-based user interfaces to the Mint smart contract will be developed to make asset creation and management a simple process. The following parameters define a new custom asset:


Currently, MetaPay has completed the construction of the development team, the internal structure of the functional prototype, and is focusing on the development of the first version of MetaPay. Although the development work is still in progress, MetaPay has completed the internal angel round of fundraising and is in the process of private sales. At present, it has received preliminary investment intentions from global leading institutions such as CMS, AU21, DFG, NGC, Rarestone, LinkPad, etc.
As of press time, the MetaPay team is still intensively developing. It is believed that users will be able to directly use MetaPay and NFT asset trading shortly. We are very much to see it soon.

Niihara International Announces Rosa Parks Spirit Award Honor for Founder and CEO Dr. Yutaka Niihara
Niihara International announced that its Founder and CEO, Dr. Yutaka Niihara, has been awarded the Rosa Parks Spirit Award by the Rosa and Raymond Parks Institute for Self Development. The honor recognizes his long-standing commitment to improving care and treatment options for patients with sickle cell disease, particularly those affected by health disparities. The Company continues to advance therapies, including L-glutamine treatment, aimed at reducing complications and addressing unmet medical needs in rare diseases.
Irvine, California – June 23, 2026 – Niihara International, Inc. (“Niihara International” or the “Company”), a development-stage biopharmaceutical company focused on therapies for rare and orphan diseases, today announced that its Founder and Chief Executive Officer, Yutaka Niihara, M.D., has been awarded the Rosa Parks Spirit Award by the Rosa and Raymond Parks Institute for Self Development, the only organization founded by civil rights icon Rosa Parks.

The Rosa and Raymond Parks Institute for Self Development, co‑founded by Rosa Parks and Elaine Eason Steele in 1987, is dedicated to educating and motivating youth and adults for self and community betterment and continues Mrs. Parks’ legacy as a global symbol of courage and human rights. The Rosa Parks Spirit Award is presented on a selective basis to individuals and partners whose work reflects Mrs. Parks’ belief that “we are here on Planet Earth to live, grow up, and do what we can to make the world a better place for all people to enjoy freedom,” including freedom from injustice and inequity.
In presenting the Rosa Parks Spirit Award to Dr. Niihara, a representative of the Institute cited his more than decade‑long commitment to improving the lives of patients with sickle cell disease, particularly those facing significant health disparities and barriers to care. The presentation acknowledged Dr. Niihara’s role in bringing broader attention to the burden of pain experienced by sickle cell patients and his sustained efforts to develop and advance treatment options for this historically underserved population.
“This recognition from the Rosa and Raymond Parks Institute for Self Development is deeply humbling,” said Dr. Yutaka Niihara. “Rosa Parks devoted her life to the cause of human dignity and equal opportunity, and I am honored that our work on behalf of sickle cell patients has been associated with her legacy. We remain committed to developing therapies that can help reduce suffering and address the persistent inequities faced by patients and families around the world.”
Niihara International is focused on the development, commercialization, and distribution of innovative therapies for rare and orphan diseases, including its initial product candidate, a generic prescription‑grade L‑glutamine oral powder designed to reduce acute complications associated with sickle cell disease in patients ages five years and older. L‑glutamine therapy has been recognized as an important option within a limited range of treatments available to sickle cell patients and reflects the Company’s mission to target serious unmet medical needs.
Niihara International’s efforts build on a growing body of clinical and real‑world evidence demonstrating that pharmaceutical‑grade L‑glutamine can reduce the frequency of painful vaso‑occlusive crises in sickle cell disease and offer meaningful benefits in a population that has historically had few therapeutic choices. The Company intends to continue advancing its product and pipeline strategy while seeking collaborations that align with its commitment to patient‑centered innovation and health equity.

Kazakhstan Climbs 28 Places in Global Tourism Ranking

Kazakhstan continues to strengthen its position on the regional tourism map. In recent years, the sector has demonstrated steady growth, with tourism activity increasing across nearly all key indicators. Following strong growth in 2025, the positive trend has continued into 2026.
According to the latest data, nearly 2 million guests were accommodated at tourism establishments across Kazakhstan during the first quarter of 2026. The value of services provided exceeded 69 billion tenge, representing a 14% increase compared to the same period last year. The volume index of tourism services reached 104.5%, indicating not only higher prices but also genuine growth in tourism activity.
Domestic tourism has shown particularly strong momentum. During the first quarter of 2026, the number of Kazakh citizens using accommodation services within the country increased by 3.6%. This reflects growing interest among residents in travelling within Kazakhstan and points to ongoing improvements in tourism infrastructure, a broader range of services, and the increasing attractiveness of domestic destinations. As a result, domestic tourism is becoming one of the key drivers of the sector, stimulating regional economic activity, creating jobs, and supporting the growth of small and medium-sized businesses.
At the regional level, Almaty remained the leading destination, welcoming 472,900 visitors during January–March 2026. It was followed by Astana with 352,200 visitors and the Akmola Region with 161,100 visitors. Approximately 40% of all visitors were concentrated in resort areas, amounting to more than 800,000 people, highlighting the growing importance of recreational tourism and strong demand for domestic holiday destinations.
The positive trends are consistent with the priorities outlined by President Kassym-Jomart Tokayev, who has repeatedly emphasised the importance of tourism development, including in his 2025 State of the Nation Address, where he highlighted the Almaty tourism cluster and the strategic significance of the sector.
Tourism infrastructure continues to expand. Kazakhstan now has more than 4,500 accommodation facilities, employing around 31,000 people. Three years ago, the country had approximately 3,800 accommodation facilities and 28,000 employees in the sector. This represents growth of 17% in accommodation capacity and 12% in employment, underscoring the sector’s increasing contribution to the national economy.
Tourism’s contribution to Kazakhstan’s economy continues to grow. In 2025, the sector generated 5 trillion tenge and accounted for 3.1% of GDP. More than 600,000 people are now employed in tourism-related activities, representing around 7% of total national employment. According to Tourism and Sports Minister Yerbol Myrzabossynov, foreign visitors spent US$2.9 billion in Kazakhstan in 2025, while tax revenues generated by tourism increased by 18% to 630 billion tenge, raising the sector’s share of total tax revenues to 2%.
These results reflect sustained efforts by both the government and private sector to develop tourism infrastructure, improve transport connectivity, enhance service quality, and promote Kazakhstan internationally. Investment in the tourism sector reached 1.3 trillion tenge in 2025, up 33% year-on-year. At the same time, government spending on culture, sport, tourism, and information policy reached a record 1.2 trillion tenge.
Legislative reforms have also been introduced. Amendments adopted in March 2026 include a “green corridor” mechanism for tourist buses to reduce border crossing times for organised groups, the formal recognition of visitor centres, and the introduction of unified standards for guides, tour leaders, and tourism instructors. Additional measures support children’s and eco-tourism, including free access to national parks for visitors under the age of 18.
The development of the tourism sector is being guided by Kazakhstan’s Tourism Industry Development Concept for 2023–2029. A key objective remains attracting more international visitors through visa liberalisation, expanded international air connectivity, and stronger promotion of Kazakhstan abroad. Citizens of 84 countries can currently enter Kazakhstan visa-free, while an electronic visa system is available to citizens of 102 countries. Kazakhstan is connected to 30 countries through 626 weekly flights operating across 135 international routes.
Infrastructure development also continues at pace. In 2025 alone, 96 tourism infrastructure projects worth 167.4 billion tenge were implemented, while government support measures for the sector totalled approximately 7 billion tenge. These figures demonstrate that tourism has become one of the priority sectors of Kazakhstan’s economic policy.
The sector’s progress is increasingly reflected in international rankings. One of the most important benchmarks is the Travel & Tourism Development Index published by the World Economic Forum, which assesses tourism infrastructure, investment attractiveness, and readiness for sustainable tourism development. Kazakhstan ranked 80th in 2019 with a score of 3.7, improved to 66th in 2021, and reached 52nd place in 2024 with a score of 4.1. Overall, Kazakhstan climbed 28 places in just five years, representing one of the most significant improvements in the region.
The country has also improved its standing in the tourism and culture category of rankings published by U.S. News & World Report. Kazakhstan ranked 73rd in 2025, improving by 11 places over three years. Notably, Kazakhstan has narrowed the gap with regional competitors and now ranks seven places ahead of Uzbekistan, while also outperforming countries such as Qatar, Bahrain, Tunisia, and Vietnam.
Overall, international rankings confirm that Kazakhstan’s tourism sector is not only expanding quantitatively but also strengthening its competitiveness globally. Improvements in international indices reflect broader progress in infrastructure, service quality, investment attractiveness, and tourism promotion, reinforcing Kazakhstan’s emergence as one of the most promising tourism destinations in Central Asia.
