    Forgd, a token advisory and optimization platform, announced the launch of its free-to-use web platform, which provides blockchain projects unrestricted access to tools for tokenomics design, liquidity monitoring, cap table management, and financial planning. Forgd eliminates financial barriers associated with traditional Web3 Advisory and consolidates an otherwise fragmented services industry built to support blockchain projects as they issue a token.

    A token launch involves complex challenges, prompting many blockchain projects to hire multiple external advisors for tasks like tokenomics modeling, market maker engagement, and exchange listing. These engagements can be costly and often lead to operational inefficiencies, given that few advisors operate an end-to-end process. Forgd addresses these challenges with free software tools for executing all vital go-to-market activities and optimizing token performance post-launch. This “self-service” approach to Web3 advisory allows teams to execute at their own pace.

    “Many of the tasks involved in a token launch are outside the expertise of a typical tech founder, which is why we created a set of tools to streamline and simplify the process in an end-to-end application,” said Shane Molidor, CEO and Founder of Forgd. “Forgd was built in response to the recurring needs of founders we’ve observed in Web3. Our DIY software tools not only reduce costs but also allow teams to concentrate on product innovation rather than specialized capital market activities.”

    Shane Molidor is a 10-year cryptocurrency veteran who formerly operated as CEO of AscendEX, Head of Trading at FBG Capital, and Business Development Associate at Gemini. Forgd recently enhanced its capabilities by acquiring Tokenomics DAO, a research institution focused on tokenomics and novel protocol design. 

    For blockchain projects that haven’t yet launched their token, Forgd helps them design tokenomics, conduct cash flow analysis & prepare for fundraising, secure partnerships with market makers & exchanges, and navigate administrative tasks such as offshore company formation. For projects with a live token, Forgd provides tools for monitoring market maker performance & token unlocks, automated token streaming, and even non-custodial liquidity provision.

    In a strategic move, Forgd has aligned with the Solana Foundation to provide select tools exclusively for projects built on the Solana blockchain. This collaboration underscores the Forgd commitment to supporting scalable blockchain ecosystems and fostering project growth.

    “We are thrilled to collaborate with the Solana Foundation to offer our tools to Solana’s vibrant developer ecosystem,” said Florian Strauf, CTO of Forgd and Founder of Tokenomics DAO. “This strategic alignment highlights our dedication to creating public goods to support blockchain entrepreneurs, and we look forward to partnering with other blockchain base layers to create comprehensive cross-chain support.”

    Forgd reports that over 250 projects have already benefited from using its pioneering tools, such as “AMM²”, a non-custodial market making protocol that empowers projects to act as their liquidity provider across all major exchanges with automated rebalancing.

    “The positive response since our private beta launch in Q1’24 has been overwhelming,” commented Shane Molidor. “Our team is motivated to continue innovating and developing new tools to empower Web3 entrepreneurs aiming to launch and scale projects of their own.”

    2024-09-19T14:45:00Z

    PCBB has announced the appointment of Radhika Lipton as Chief Risk Officer, succeeding Steve Baca, who is retiring after nearly two decades of distinguished service.

    WALNUT CREEK, Calif., Sept. 19, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- PCBB, a leading financial firm dedicated to serving the needs of community-based financial institutions nationwide, is pleased to announce the appointment of Radhika Lipton as Chief Risk Officer. Radhika, renowned for her expertise in bolstering organizational resilience and optimizing operational efficiency through strategic risk mitigation, will succeed Steve Baca, who is set to retire in early 2025 after nearly two decades of exemplary service.

    Throughout his tenure, Steve has been instrumental in guiding PCBB’s risk management strategies, contributing significantly to the firm's impressive growth — more than doubling its assets and increasing the customer base over the past decade.

She stated, “I am excited to join the PCBB team as we continue to pursue new market opportunities to bring our customers to the next level of banking. I am passionate about developing and leading comprehensive risk frameworks and compliance strategies that align with business objectives and regulatory standards.”

    PCBB looks forward to leveraging Radhika’s extensive knowledge and experience to enhance its risk management framework, ensuring continued success and innovation in the evolving financial landscape.
