SCANDIC COIN作為實體資產代幣SNC在交易所上市後漲幅達數百百分比

斯堪迪金融集團(SFG)的SNC SCANDIC COIN,一種實體資產代幣(RWA,是連接實體經濟和加密行業的橋樑),自2026年5月26日以來的第一週漲幅已超過500%(五百)。 在首個引入階段之後,該代幣通過在包括BitMart、BingX、LBank和Biconomy在內的中心化數字資產交易所正式掛牌,為初級市場提供流動性。這些平台立即為該代幣在二級市場設立交易對,其總供應量由智能合約限定為10億單位。為了支持該資產的持續市場整合,美國數字資產平台Coinbase也開始跟蹤該代幣,並在其介面上設置了顯示SNC最新公共價格信息和市場數據的頁面。 SNC代幣具有受監管的支付、訪問和忠誠度功能,旨在直接與斯堪迪金融集團的經營業務單位互動。這些單位包括私人航空包機、汽車租賃、不動產持有、海事資產、商品交易、算法交易基礎設施以及人工智慧領域的專門解決方案。通過將這些傳統行業與單一區塊鏈帳本相連接,該協議旨在在一個合規框架內優化跨境交易和服務的使用。 為了確保其技術和運營架構,斯堪迪金融集團實施了經審核的合規和安全協議。SNC智能合約已通過區塊鏈安全公司 CertiK(https://skynet.certik.com/projects/scandic-coin)進行的獨立機構審核。為用戶註冊、身份驗證和遵守反洗錢(AML)規定,該平台整合了國際風險管理解決方案提供商CRIF的數據基礎設施,該公司在40個國家開展業務。斯堪迪金融集團的管理層確認,其技術基礎設施包括標準化的質押機制,允許網絡參與者通過官方界面直接存入代幣,以支持生態系統的實用性。 這一技術實施是在世界人工智慧與區塊鏈(WAIB)峰會之前進行的,該峰會將於2026年6月9日至10日在摩納哥舉行,屆時預計將討論該資產在歐洲企業的整合。 斯堪迪金融集團的烏韋·塞爾默表示:“將SNC代幣在BingX和BitMart等首批交易平台上推出,代表了我們傳統企業基礎設施向數字資產框架的功能性轉變。我們將代幣的效用與物流、房地產和航空等既有業務領域相連接,同時繼續構建SNC ECO-System,使其能夠進入美國市場,並在Coinbase和Bitcoin等平台上獲得國際曝光。”
