Waton Financial Limited Unveils DePearl™, Core AI Agent Technology Bridging Traditional Markets with Web3 Infrastructure

HONG KONG, Oct. 09, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Waton Financial Limited (NASDAQ: WTF) (“Waton” or the “Company”), a provider of securities brokerage and financial technology services, today announced the launch of its proprietary artificial intelligence (AI) agent core, DePearl™. Developed to serve as the foundation of Waton’s AI-native financial ecosystem, DePearl enables the creation, training and monetization of autonomous AI traders on blockchain. The technology marks a major step in Waton’s strategy to bridge traditional finance with digital assets, enabling the company to strengthen its position amidst the AI-driven transformation in global markets.

Inspired by the concept of “pearls” in HBO’s Westworld, DePearl is designed to encapsulate the “soul” of an AI trader — known as a “DeTrader” — within a secure, blockchain-based framework. Each DePearl can transition between active AI trading and learning modes, enabling users to create, train and personalize their own AI traders based on their individual experience and strategies. Built with encryption, digital signatures and transferability, DePearl functions as a verifiable, tradable digital asset that can be stored, retrained and exchanged across Waton’s ecosystem — introducing a new form of financial intelligence that synthesize human insight with machine precision.

“DePearl represents the next evolution of intelligent finance,” said Kai Zhou, Chairman of Waton Financial Limited. “The concept was inspired by Westworld, where the digital consciousness of a host, including its memories and personality can be stored within a pearl. Similarly, each DePearl holds the identity and capability of its AI trader, enabling it to learn, evolve and operate autonomously. With our proprietary AI agent technology, stablecoin framework and digital asset reserve, Waton is building an ecosystem that connects traditional markets with Web3 infrastructure — seeking to offer clients secure, institutional-grade access to the emerging world of digital assets.”

The launch of DePearl marks the foundation of Waton’s broader AI-native financial ecosystem, which is designed to integrate artificial intelligence, blockchain infrastructure and digital asset management. Within this ecosystem, the Company plans to partner with a matrix of stablecoins to facilitate secure transactions and settlements across DePearl-based products and establish an AI-blockchain based reserve to provide liquidity, collateralization and yield stability. Together, these elements are expected to facilitate a seamless flow between traditional financial systems and the emerging AI trading economy — creating new opportunities for scalability, transparency and value creation.

Through DePearl, Waton is seeking to redefine the intersection of artificial intelligence and finance — in order to transform trading from a human-driven process into an AI-native ecosystem where knowledge, data and performance can be owned and exchanged as digital assets. Waton is pursuing a new standard for AI-enabled financial infrastructure that merges the transparency of blockchain with the intelligence of autonomous agents. DePearl is not merely a product launch; it represents the next phase of Waton’s evolution towards building a sustainable, scalable ecosystem that can empower investors, institutions and developers alike.
