Bitcoin News Today: PowerBank and Intellistake Partner on Bitcoin and RWA Tokenization Strategy

PowerBank Corporation and Intellistake Technologies Corp. have announced a strategic alliance to explore digital currencies and tokenized real-world assets (RWA) as part of a broader shift toward decentralized finance and AI-driven infrastructure. The partnership, unveiled on July 31, 2025, outlines three key initiatives: the integration of Bitcoin into PowerBank’s treasury, the management of PowerBank’s digital assets by Intellistake, and the evaluation of tokenizing PowerBank’s clean energy infrastructure. This collaboration marks a significant step in merging traditional energy systems with blockchain-based financial innovation [1].

Under the agreement, PowerBank intends to accumulate and hold Bitcoin as part of its long-term treasury strategy, while Intellistake will focus on digital assets that support decentralized AI, such as the FET token. Intellistake will also serve as a security, custody, and treasury management partner for PowerBank’s digital assets, replacing previous arrangements with Coinbase. The companies emphasize that no Bitcoin purchases have been executed yet, and the timing and volume of any future acquisitions remain subject to market conditions and internal strategy [1].

Tokenization of PowerBank’s energy assets, including solar and storage infrastructure, is another focal point of the partnership. The companies are assessing the regulatory landscape for RWA tokenization, which could allow for new investment and financing models. Analysts forecast that the RWA tokenization market could reach $30 trillion by 2034, driven by blockchain and AI advancements [1].

Both companies stress that the actual structure of the tokenization initiative, the specific assets to be involved, and the timeline remain undetermined and will be updated as the strategy progresses. Intellistake CEO Jason Dussault highlighted that tokenization is no longer a speculative concept but an “inevitability,” aligning with the growing institutional interest in decentralized assets. PowerBank CEO Dr. Richard Lu stated the collaboration aims to redefine how capital and assets are managed in the context of AI, automation, and clean energy [1].

The press release also includes a corporate update related to the issuance of 56,275 shares to certain former and current directors of Solar Flow-Through Funds Ltd. The shares are being issued to settle outstanding director fees and are subject to a four-month holding period and regulatory exemptions. The transaction is considered a related-party deal and has been approved by PowerBank’s board [1].

PowerBank, a Canadian-based clean energy project developer, operates solar and battery storage projects across North America and has a pipeline exceeding one gigawatt in capacity. It has developed over 100 megawatts of renewable energy infrastructure and aims to leverage blockchain technology to enhance transparency and efficiency in its operations [1].

The partnership includes forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties, including regulatory hurdles, market volatility, and execution risks. Both companies caution that actual results may differ materially from expectations and disclaim any obligation to update forward-looking statements unless required by law.

This alliance underscores a broader industry trend toward integrating blockchain and AI with traditional infrastructure, with PowerBank and Intellistake aiming to lead in this transformative space.
