EasyA, a platform that enables developers to build blockchain and artificial intelligence applications, has been valued at $1.1 billion ahead of a planned public listing in the first half of next year. The valuation, determined by an independent third party using audited financial statements, operating performance, growth plans and comparisons with publicly traded companies, was disclosed in a draft registration filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. The company, founded by brothers Philip and Dominic Kwok, intends to pursue a direct listing, allowing existing shareholders to sell shares without raising new capital through a traditional initial public offering. EasyA has completed two years of audits by PKF and says its app serves more than 1.3 million users, including software developers and AI tool users. The firm is exploring tokenized shares for its offering and expanding into tokenization projects and AI agent applications through EasyA Labs. It has partnered with companies such as Ripple and Solana to introduce their technology to developers via educational programs and hackathons. The listing would provide public-market access to infrastructure and services supporting blockchain and AI industries, rather than direct exposure to cryptocurrencies or AI models. Tokenized equities are gaining attention from major financial firms, with Robinhood building a blockchain for tokenized stocks and analysts anticipating regulatory developments that could benefit brokers and custodians. EasyA has not yet disclosed details of how its tokenized shares would be issued or traded.
