On August 25, YZi Labs announced that 24 early-stage companies have been selected for the fourth season of its flagship incubation program, EASY Residency, with each receiving a $500,000 investment. This season's program spans 10 weeks, starting online, followed by an intensive exchange and building session for the founding teams in Bhutan. The program focuses on the next generation of global financial infrastructure, covering multiple directions including stablecoin payments. Selected projects include Aile, Alloco, and others. YZi Labs stated that this season's projects reflect its judgment on the development directions of global payments, on-chain markets, and delegated finance, namely that financial processes will become more programmable, localized, compliant, and more deeply integrated into daily financial scenarios.
