We’re proud to announce that <a href="https://www.bridgetowercapital.com/" target="_blank">Bridgetower</a> has chosen Cubist as the exclusive wallet provider for their <a href="https://www.bridgetowercapital.com/web3" target="_blank">Web3 Commerce Platform</a>. <br> ## Why we’re excited to partner with Bridgetower<br> Bridgetower is one of the leading providers of digital assets infrastructure and private equity services. A Singapore-based company with operating entities in Switzerland, the United Arab Emirates, and the United States, Bridgetower serves many of the most important jurisdictions in the global economy with a focus on compliance, safety and regulation. <br> With $800M assets under management, the Bridgetower team are experienced validator operators, powering more than 10,000 nodes staked with institutional capital. They partner closely with their customers to build creative NFT and AI projects using a well-vetted set of technology partners. We love their relationship-driven approach—after all, we’re a bit customer-obsessed ourselves. <br> We built CubeSigner to allow teams to safely build on blockchains without having to stress about low-level details; with that, we are perfectly aligned to support Bridgetower’s mission of bridging the gap between legacy business models and the new possibilities blockchain enables—starting with their Web3 Commerce Platform. <br> ## Enabling Web3 ownership without Web3 complexity<br> Coming from a regulatory angle, Bridgetower cares a lot about the security of the assets belonging to their customers’ end users. This was a hard requirement from day zero (as it's been for us). But they also don’t want to sacrifice the usability of their platform nor give up on feature-parity across chains. The Bridgetower team works with projects that span different L1 (and L2) ecosystems, including Avalanche, Solana, Cardano, and the Internet Computer—and they're veterans who know that cobbling together different wallets to (try to) provide a seamless experience doesn't work. CubeSigner serves as a base layer on top of which the team has bridged the gaps of different chains—from gas relaying, to permissioning, to self-custody staking. <br> <blockquote>“Bridgetower’s partnership with Cubist marks a significant milestone in our journey to integrate Web3 and Blockchain technologies. Our relationship with Cubist is yet another example of Bridgetower aligning with those who are pioneering the adoption of Web3 globally.” <footer>- Cory Pugh, Founder and CEO of Bridgetower Capital</footer> </blockquote> <br> We designed CubeSigner as a single solution that can securely and seamlessly power the many use cases Bridgetower supports (and looks to support), so partnering together to help teams build the future of Web3 was an easy next step for us. The projects that the Web3 Commerce Platform is powering are interesting and forward-thinking—they bring digital ownership, provenance, and content monetization to reality—and we're excited to be part of Bridgetower’s initiative to drive the industry forward in these different markets. <br> ## The future of Web3 commerce<br> As an example of one of these projects, the Bridgetower entity BT Commerce recently announced their collaboration with <a href="https://www.airev.ae/" target="_blank">AIREV</a>, an Abu Dhabi-based pioneer in blockchain-based AI solutions. AIREV’s popular AI-powered education app, <a href="https://www.schoolhack.ai/" target="_blank">School Hack</a>, is one of the first to launch on the new Web3 Commerce Platform. Each of School Hack’s 3 million users now have a CubeSigner-backed wallet to allow them to take advantage of the app’s Web3 features without having to know anything about Web3. <br> At Cubist, we continue to be excited about developing technology that makes it possible for the mainstream to participate in Web3. We believe that Bridgetower is the right partner to be at the leading edge with us and we look forward to sharing what we do together. <br> <pre><br> <br> <br> <br> <br> </pre><br> <br> **About Bridgetower** <br> Bridgetower Capital is a global leader and pioneer in the convergence of blockchain and AI, the most transformative technologies of the 21st century.
