When Pain Points in Cross-Border Payment Brings Payment Changes, How Can Hypercard Lead the Trend
Throughout the evolving history of global cross-border payment, cross-border payment is rising with the continuous development of the international division of labor and international exchanges. In the early days, people use precious metals for cross-border payment and clearing, then followed by paper money, and today’s modern electronic transfer and clearing. Cross-border payment is developing gradually towards a rapid, safe and economical trend as the entire international community is engaging in the activities more frequently and science and technology are changing and progressing.
The change of cross-border payment
According to the data, the total amount of global cross-border payment reached $125 trillion in 2018 and is expected to reach $218 trillion in 2022, promising huge profits.
In the existing transfer and remittance system, the transaction is slow and the cost is high with much margin for error; institutions have to coordinate the value transfer between different internal databases, which makes it extremely difficult to settle transactions quickly. This process not only slows down the transaction progress but also requires large working capital, which has a negative impact on the balance sheet of the institution.
As cryptoassets are gradually accepted by traditional finance, digital currency payment is also implementing and applying quickly. The competition around digital currency has just begun across the globe. In 2019, the emergence of Libra has triggered the catfish effect, and legal currency is discussed more enthusiastically all over the world. Countries have taken precautions and speeded up the research on sovereign digital currency. Even the European Central Bank, which did not seem interested before, recently began to discuss the necessity of developing a unified digital currency. According to a report released by the International Monetary Fund in July of the same year, nearly 70% of the world’s central banks are studying sovereign digital currency.
Some fear that Libra may become a strong currency once in circulation. It can be exchanged with the currencies of countries and erodes the fiat currency. If the weak countries make mistakes in regulation, hyperinflation or even de-monetization will likely happen. In the past, a typical example is Zimbabwe who abolished its local currency and was forced to use the US dollar and other currencies.
Traditional payment giants are fostering digital currency payment
Bitcoin was born to destroy the existing monetary system, which many people think is too expensive and exclusive. Given this, it has a much broader value proposition than a deflationary policy and a hard cap of 21 million coins. The new application of blockchain technology also allows anyone to remit money to counterparties around the world in minutes at a low cost.
This function makes bitcoin directly target the existing payment platforms (such as credit card networks and inter-bank messaging systems). While some companies shrug off these concerns, others see the potential and are looking for ways to create value for partners and shareholders.
According to news on February 20, Visa, an international payment giant, has cooperated with 35 leading digital currency platforms or digital wallets.
These institutions are digital currency platforms licensed by the state or regulated by relevant departments, such as the digital payment platform WireX, the digital currency trading platform Coinbase and Fold, cryptoasset lending platform BlockFi, Austria encryption trading platform Bitpanda, Encrypted debit card platform Crypto.com, etc.
Industry insiders said that the cooperation between Visa and digital currency service providers enables consumers to exchange digital currency more quickly and easily. Users can also deposit this money into their Visa certificates in real-time.
When asked why Visa chose the cryptoasset payment, Visa’s executives clearly expressed their optimism about the payment method in his talks with Forbes: “we saw significant innovation in new financial services for consumers holding digital currency. One example is the growth in demand for digital money lending. We are delighted to work with fintech companies like Cred. The company develops new products in this ecosystem and finds new ways for Visa to improve the entrance of fiat currency associated with these products. “
At present, in addition to Visa, MasterCard, Paypal and other international payment tycoons are also fostering digital currency.
Recently, MasterCard stated that it has cooperated with the Central Bank of The Bahamas to launch the world’s first Bahamas prepaid card. The prepaid card allows people to immediately exchange digital currency into traditional Bahamas dollars and pay for goods and services anywhere MasterCard supports. PayPal also claimed to provide cryptocurrency services to the UK market in the coming months.
Cryptoasset service providers speed up the participation in payment
Not only the traditional payment giants are paying attention to cryptoassets payment, but also the asset service providers in the encryption industry are exploring the possibility of payment. HyperBC, a well-known encrypted asset service provider, has launched a comprehensive consumer card HyperCard. After being deposited with digital currency, the card is available in more than 176 countries and more than 50 million merchants worldwide.
As a global standard credit card, HyperCard supports the binding consumption with third-party payment companies by users
Every payment made by HyperCard is secure and consumer privacy is protected by law. HyperCard can transfer money beyond the geographical limit in a second at a low commission, yet with 24/7 service. It is traceable with clear information of all parties. No matter which city you are in, you can use it at all merchants accepting Visa, Master and UnionPay.
In fact, in addition to payment, the most intuitive appealing of digital currency credit cards is it makes encrypted assets purchasing easy and cash out of cryptoassets. In this context, digital currency payment is still a very new track, and the choice of such products is still limited. The main problems are as follows:
1. Only single-currency payment is supported, such as bitcoin
2. Only available in a small number of areas
3. Users have to buy cryptocurrency issued by the card providers before paying
4. Charge a certain percentage of the annual fee
HyperBC also takes this situation into consideration. It is convenient to apply for HyperCard. The digital currency, deposited into HyperCard, can be exchanged into fiat currency in real-time, eliminating the tedious process and the trouble of cash payment, and significantly improving the user-friendliness of digital currency. HyperCard does not charge for KYC verification and only charges a very low commission for each deposit.
How to apply for HyperCard?
a Download the HyperPay App（https://www.hyperpay.tech/app_down） and register
b Apply for HyperCard
c Submit KYC documents and pass the certification
d HyperCard received
Conclusion
With the rapid development of digital currency and the increasing global acceptance of digital currency, the boundary between fiat currency and digital currency will become narrower. At the same time, digital currency credit card reduces the threshold for traditional users to access digital currency. The selective digital currency assets also avoid their risk in holding digital currency to a certain extent, Whether for investment, quick cash-out, or regular consumption, HyperCard, as a mature digital currency credit card, can enable cardholders to enjoy more convenient services.

Scientology Volunteer Ministers Open First Sarajevo Exhibition with Sevdalinka Songs and Free Seminars
Scientology Volunteer Ministers brought their yellow tent of help to Sarajevo for the first time, opening a three-day public exhibition in the city center with traditional sevdalinka songs, a ribbon cutting and free seminars in practical techniques for everyday problems.
SARAJEVO, Bosnia and Herzegovina – 8 October 2026 – The Scientology Volunteer Ministers opened their first public exhibition in Sarajevo, bringing the program’s yellow tent of help to a central square of the Bosnian capital for three days of free seminars and demonstrations of practical techniques for dealing with the difficulties of everyday life.
Caption: The ribbon is cut to open the Scientology Volunteer Ministers exhibition in central Sarajevo. The banner reads “Nesto se ipak moze uciniti” – “Something can be done about it,” the motto of the Volunteer Ministers.
The grand opening was scheduled for 5:30 p.m. on the square. When rain and a sudden drop in temperature arrived, the Volunteer Ministers moved the ceremony inside the tent, where guests gathered among the exhibition’s panels for an evening of sevdalinka, the traditional urban folk song of Bosnia known for its emotional melodies and poetic lyrics of love, longing, and life. A local ensemble of singers in traditional Bosnian costume, accompanied on accordion, performed two sets of eight songs and an encore, closing with songs dedicated to Sarajevo and to Bosnia itself.

Between the two sets, Juraj Duna, the Volunteer Minister in charge of the European Goodwill Tour, told guests how the Volunteer Ministers program began, how its volunteers assisted in Bosnia and Herzegovina after the floods of 2014 and what the yellow tent offers today. A Volunteer Minister who has supported the tour on previous visits to the region then cut the red ribbon together with two guests from the local community, and visitors were invited to tour the exhibition and take part in the hands-on demonstrations that followed.
“Sarajevo is a city with a long tradition of different communities living side by side, and the people here have shown us a warmth and openness that made this visit memorable,” Duna said. “The Volunteer Ministers came because the tour had never been to Sarajevo before, and because the tools in this tent are for anyone who wants to improve conditions in his own life and help the people around him. Something can be done about it, and that is the message we came to share.”
The exhibition presents 19 subjects drawn from the Scientology Handbook, each offering practical know-how for a common difficulty in life, from stress and conditions at work to study problems, communication, marriage, raising children and the causes of suppression. Visitors are introduced to simple tools intended to help them understand the roots of a difficulty and take a concrete step to improve it.
The most requested seminars in Sarajevo were those on assists, a set of simple techniques intended to help a person relax and ease discomfort by addressing the spiritual component of stress and tension. Attendees watched a short film, saw the technique demonstrated, received an assist themselves and then practiced delivering one to another person. By the close of the exhibition, 13 participants had reported that they were applying what they learned to help family members at home, and several asked for further training.
“What stood out in Sarajevo was how quickly people moved from watching to doing,” Duna said. “By the second day, visitors who had come in for a seminar were delivering assists to each other. That is exactly what the Volunteer Ministers program is for: putting workable tools in the hands of people who will use them.”
Following the exhibition, the tour delivered a lecture and workshop on “The Cause of Suppression,” one of the 19 subjects presented in the tent, for members of a local cultural association, and has been asked to repeat the lecture for a larger audience in the city.
The Volunteer Ministers European Goodwill Tour arrived in Bosnia and Herzegovina on 6 June 2026, spending five weeks in Mostar before moving to Sarajevo. The tour concludes its work in the country on 8 October 2026 and continues to other cities in the region.

The Scientology Volunteer Ministers program was created in the mid-1970s by Scientology Founder L. Ron Hubbard, who wrote that “a Volunteer Minister is a person who helps his fellow man on a volunteer basis by restoring purpose, truth and spiritual values to the lives of others.” Volunteer Ministers have responded to major disasters around the world for nearly five decades and, through traveling yellow-tent exhibitions and free online courses, bring the same tools to communities in times of peace. Their motto is “Something can be done about it.”

Our lead asset, Hopes Advance, produces 66.6% Fe iron ore, with 0.01% Al₂O₃ and 0.005% phosphorus – among the lowest impurity levels of any seaborne concentrate globally.
Canada, 8th Oct 2026 – Global Stocks News – Sponsored content disseminated on behalf of Oceanic Iron Ore. On October 7, 2026, Oceanic Iron Ore (TSXV: FEO) issued a message to shareholders entitled “The Demand for Green Steel”.
Oceanic is focused on the development of its 100% owned Hopes Advance, Morgan Lake and Roberts Lake iron ore projects located on the coast, in the Labrador Trough in Québec, Canada.
The flagship Hopes Advance Project has a NI 43-101 Measured & Indicated resource of about 1.36 billion tonnes at a head grade of 32.1% Fe. The project is located at tidewater. The PEA highlights that Oceanic will not require a railroad to get its iron ore to market, significantly reducing capital expenses and operating costs.
The Demand for Green Steel
Chris Batalha
CEO of Oceanic Iron Ore
The planet is heating up. The ten warmest years in recorded history have all occurred in the last decade. The International Science Council (ISC) warns that higher temperatures are causing an increase in hurricanes, droughts and tropical cyclones.
The production of steel is a major contributor to global warming. An astonishing one billion metric tonnes of metallurgical coal is consumed globally every year to manufacture steel. This accounts for 15% of coal burned globally across all industries. Steel and iron ore are responsible for 7-9% of the world’s CO2 emissions.
The United Nations Industrial Development Organization (UNIDO) has recommended that emissions from the iron and steel sector fall by more than 90% by 2050. To achieve this reduction target, global metallurgical infrastructure is currently being reimagined and rebuilt.
For decades, iron ore has been processed in traditional blast furnaces. These enormous chemical reactor towers transform iron ore into liquid metal (pig iron). The process requires extreme heat generated from burning metallurgical coke with hot air.
Blast furnaces are designed to run continuously 24/7 for 10 to 20 years. Shutting them down creates three major problems: the molten iron and slag inside the furnace can turn solid after time; cooling refractory linings can cause structural damage; reheating the blast furnace requires large amounts of energy, taking weeks – sometimes months – to achieve operational readiness.
Currently, about 70% of global steel is manufactured using these coal-fired blast furnaces. Gradually, production is being shifted to Direct Reduced Iron (DRI) plants that use Green Hydrogen to strip oxygen from the iron ore, releasing water vapour instead of CO2.
The benchmark grade of iron ore required for blast furnace product is 62% Fe. Impurities like phosphorus make the steel brittle. Removing other impurities such as silica, alumina and sulphur forces the steel mill to use more energy, pure oxygen and fluxing agents like limestone.
The greener DRI plants require high-grade iron ore with low impurities due to the electricity requirements to produce a molten slag during steel making. Our lead asset, Hopes Advance, produces 66.6% Fe iron ore, with 0.01% Al₂O₃ and 0.005% phosphorus – among the lowest impurity levels of any seaborne concentrate globally.
New environmental regulations are actively pushing Chinese steel mills toward higher-grade ores. The Chinese want processing facilities that will maximize output while minimizing the additional pollution created from removing impurities.
High-grade, low-impurity iron ore has been added to Canada’s and Québec’s Critical Minerals List. This premium product is in high demand from global steelmakers transitioning to green, hydrogen-based Direct Reduced Iron (DRI) processing.
Because the Hopes Advance iron ore is high-grade and has negligible alumina and phosphorus content, we have an opportunity to play an important role in servicing the green steel markets. It is a significant business advantage. Not all iron mines can contribute to the green steel input market.
There are still about 1,000 blast furnaces in operation. Many of these operations need high-grade material to blend with their lower-grade feed. Oceanic downstream iron ore buyers could be steel companies, iron ore producers, or trading houses.
In the next message, I will explain what we learned from the Hopes Advance Re-Scoped PEA.
