???Crypto Insurance Meets AI: AIFT’s Expansion into Japan and Beyond A big thank you to?Nikkei Asia?for featuring?AIFT?and OneInfinity by OneDegree?crypto insurance solutions! With the global crypto market heating up and the U.S. potentially easing regulations under the new #Trump administration, AIFT is solidifying its position as a leader at the intersection of?crypto insurance, blockchain, and AI cybersecurity. Here are a few highlights from the article: ??Category Leader in Asia and the Middle East: We estimate holding roughly?70% market share?in digital asset insurance across Asia, including coverage for most of the new crypto licenses issued by?Securities and Futures Commission (SFC)?and?Virtual Assets Regulatory Authority [VARA]?recently. ??Japan as a Key Market: AIFT is planning to establish an office in?Tokyo?and a R&D center in?Fukuoka, leveraging Japan’s robust consumer protection laws and growing demand for cybersecurity solutions. ??AI and Blockchain Security: Our proprietary software detects vulnerabilities in blockchain and AI systems, addressing critical risks in the digital asset space. As we look ahead,?AI is 10 times bigger than blockchain. With AI adoption accelerating—especially with the rise of AI agents in the blockchain space—securing sensitive data has never been more important. In Japan, where an aging population and productivity challenges are pressing issues, AI could be a game-changer—but only if we get the security piece right. What are your thoughts on the future of?crypto insurance?and?AI cybersecurity? Do you see this as a growing trend, especially with the U.S. potentially re-entering the crypto arena?

2024 in Review ??Strategic Identity & Positioning: AIFT has a clearly defined mission and vision: to secure [cybersecurity + insurance] the future [AI, blockchain, pet]. This unique dual focus enables us to create unparalleled value that is hard for competitors to replicate, as few companies possess expertise in both domains. ??Financial Milestone: In Q3 2024, AIFT achieved its first quarterly operating profit, marking a significant milestone. This success highlights the value of our innovative product portfolio and our ability to leverage technology for scalable growth. We have secured leading market positions in two flagship products—digital asset protection and pet insurance—with revenue growing at high double- or triple-digit rates annually, while maintaining cost discipline. Since 2018, AIFT has successfully raised funding from investors every year. ??Cybersecurity Innovation: Cymetrics launched Vulcan, the first Large Language Model (LLM) security solution in Asia and Middle East. The solution has garnered overwhelmingly positive feedback from regulators and enterprises. We also continue to innovate within our flagship offerings, introducing specialized protection solutions for stablecoins, ETFs, and a market-first critical illness product for pets. Our digital asset insurance product became the first—and remains the only—product approved by Central Bank of The UAE. ??Leadership & Strategic Focus: Starting in early 2024, several team leaders assumed end-to-end ownership of their respective BUs and markets. This shift has allowed Alex and I to focus on high-impact strategic initiatives, including talent development, market expansion, and exploring potential investment and M&A opportunities. 2025 Outlook ??Expansion of Vulcan Team: We have quadrupled the size of the Vulcan team dedicated to LLM security. Talents in cybersecurity, machine learning, linguistics and enterprise sales, have been brought on board. Additionally, we have redeployed warriors from various BUs to ensure Vulcan achieves the same market impact and success as our other flagship products. ??Focus on Middle East & Global Markets: Building on our 2024 hiring efforts, we are further strengthening our presence in Middle East by appointing a regional team leader and relocating key leaders to the region. We have forged significant partnerships in Korea, Japan and ASEAN, and are evaluating opportunities in the EU. To support our global strategy, we are forming an international advisory board. ??Enhanced Metrics & Inorganic Growth: In 2025, we aim to elevate our impact metrics (client acquisition &value delivery), financial metrics (revenue growth & operating profit). We will also pursue inorganic growth opportunities through new funding rounds and strategic M&A activities. This year promises to be transformative as we continue to innovate, expand, and deliver exceptional value to our stakeholders.
