Token YNG: Q3 2025 Report

Token Young (YNG): updates and news Q3 2025

 What happened? What are the next steps?

The third quarter of 2025 marked an unprecedented growth chapter for the Young Platform ecosystem, solidifying the strategic breakthrough initiated with the listing of the YNG token on Uniswap. What was still a starting point in Q2 has now become a powerful accelerator, propelling our token toward new horizons of value and visibility.

This report analyses the results of an exciting period—characterised by strong market validation and intense work on multiple fronts: from consolidating our presence in DeFi, to enhancing community‑engagement initiatives such as The Unbox, to making important regulatory progress in the lead‑up to MiCA, and participating in key industry events.

As with earlier editions (except the special Q2 2025 issue celebrating the Uniswap launch), the report is offered in two versions:

  • A public version, providing a clear overview of the milestones reached, events, and new developments of the quarter.
  • An exclusive, in‑depth version, reserved for Club members, with detailed analyses of market data, strategy, tokenomics and a sneak peek at our roadmap.

Are you ready to dive into the details of a pivotal phase in our future?

2025 to date: the market validates our vision

The July listing on Uniswap was not just a technical milestone—it marked the beginning of a new era for YNG. Entering the decentralised market triggered an extraordinary reaction, resulting in the most significant price performance in our history.

Listing on Uniswap and price action: beyond expectations

The enthusiasm generated by the listing translated into exceptional price action. From the announcement in early July, YNG’s price surged by over 300%, moving from approximately €0.20 to a new all‑time high of €0.95.

This result is not accidental, but the first tangible confirmation that our long‑term strategy is paying off. The decision to pursue organic and sustainable growth has so far proven successful. We protected the community and enabled the real value of our ecosystem to emerge healthily.

Despite this milestone, we believe that YNG’s potential remains largely untapped. A market capitalisation below €30 million still does not fully reflect the value of a domestic-market-leading company with clear ambitions for European expansion.

Ecosystem adoption is a lengthy process, grounded in daily work and user trust. Each day we strive to maximise the value we offer in return for that trust—and the results of this quarter tell us we are on the right path.

The Unbox

In Q3, we completed The Unbox, our most ambitious prize contest ever, which served as a strategic bridge to the launch of our payment account and debit card. Building on the success of the first edition, we raised the stakes in both prize value and game mechanics—and the results surpassed every expectation.

The impact on engagement was extraordinary: platform activity rose sharply, registering participation peaks comparable to the most euphoric market periods.
A key role in this success was played by the Boost Holder mechanism, which rewards those holding YNG in their wallets. By offering weekly bonus gems based on token holdings, we created a virtuous cycle that tied contest participation directly to token utility—catalysing community interest and strengthening YNG demand.

Q3 posted a highly significant economic performance, driven by effective marketing campaigns and the “The Unbox” and “The Box” contests. These results demonstrate YNG’s concrete ability to create value for the ecosystem. Specifically:

  • Trading volume on the YNG/EUR pair exceeded €17 million, with an additional €2.7 million on decentralised pools.
  • This marks an increase of approximately 8,000% compared to the total trading volume of €250,000 in Q3 2024.

Roadmap: the Young Platform Account and Card are almost here

The Unbox contest was the event that led us to launch the account. With this in mind, we are excited to announce that the next big step in our evolution is imminent: the Young Platform payment account and debit card are about to become a reality.

At this stage, the feature is in its “Family and Friends” phase — a final testing period during which our team and a group of selected users are already using it daily. This phase will end in November, after which the gradual public rollout will begin, with priority access granted to Club members and to the winners of the 2025 prize contests (The Box and The Unbox).

This project fully reflects our philosophy, which places customer satisfaction and protection at the forefront. We chose a different path from the more speculative approaches seen in our industry. Recent events—liquidations totalling $19 billion—demonstrate the risks of a system based on extreme leverage.
Our goal is not to offer tools that promise rapid riches, but to guide users toward mindful, sustainable investment. We believe investing should be a “near‑zero effort” activity, integrated into everyday life. The account and card are instruments through which we turn that vision into reality.

MiCA: our path toward full compliance

Q3 was also pivotal from a regulatory standpoint, with significant advances in our alignment with the new European crypto‑asset regulatory framework (MiCA). We reaffirm our full commitment to operate in full compliance—this regulation represents a fundamental step toward transparency and investor protection across Europe.

Although we had long since initiated all the necessary activities to comply, with the goal of submitting the final application by the deadline of June 31st, 2025, an extension of the previous term made it impossible for us to meet that date.

In any case, we are ready to obtain authorization from the Supervisory Authority by the new deadline: December 30th, 2025. Thanks to a transitional regime under Italian law, we are authorised to continue providing our services without interruption, ensuring an orderly transition into the new system. For our users, this means there will be no immediate impact—you can continue using the platform just as you always have, without any action required on your part. Functionality, services and contract terms will remain unchanged during this period.

Our legal and compliance team is already working to ensure every aspect of our operations meets the highest standards demanded by MiCA. We will maintain an open and transparent dialogue and commit to regular updates on our progress. This path is not just a regulatory obligation—it’s a reaffirmation of our responsibility to build a crypto ecosystem that is ever more secure and trustworthy.

Strategic events and the future of Young Group

Last but not least, Q3 saw the official launch of Young Group—a strategic evolution celebrated at an exclusive event on 19 September in the prestigious Palazzo Mezzanotte (home of Borsa Italiana). On this occasion, we unveiled our transition from an exchange to a financial Super App: an integrated ecosystem that will offer trading on decentralised exchanges (DEX), collateralised loans, a debit card and payment account, and the integration of perpetual futures, stocks, and ETFs. A pillar of this strategy is Fleap S.p.A., a platform authorised by CONSOB for real‑asset tokenisation, positioning us at the centre of the European digital finance arena. Our co‑CEO, Andrea Ferrero, emphasised how this evolution represents the next step in our mission. After making Bitcoin safe and accessible five years ago, our current objective is to integrate the entire on‑chain economy into our app.

Our presence has not stopped there. We were key participants in Italian Tech Week—Italy’s premier tech event—where we organised the “Crypto Night” and presented our vision to more than 1,500 innovators and tech‑enthusiasts. We have also taken our strategy global: in late October, our Chairman, Nicolas Bertrand, will bring the Young Group model to the stage at Blockchain Life 2025 in Dubai—one of the world’s leading crypto events. His philosophy, at the heart of our strategy, is clear: success in fintech comes not just from technology, but from a perfect balance of regulation, accessibility and trust. While others obsess over hash‑rate optimisation, our obsession is optimising “trust‑flow”—that stream of trust which allows millions of people to approach this world safely, translating the complexity of blockchain into a human experience.

The third quarter of 2025 has demonstrated the strength of our vision and the exponential capacity of our ecosystem. Market validation, the launch of Young Group and a more concrete product roadmap are outcomes of a strategic journey built on solid foundations and a strong community.

But what you have read so far is only the visible part of this acceleration.

We have chosen to reserve the most strategic analyses and sensitive data exclusively for our Club members—they are the true protagonists of our ecosystem and deserve an unprecedented level of transparency regarding the decisions that will shape its future.

Young Platform Pro gets an upgrade: here’s what’s new

Young Platform Pro gets an upgrade: here's what's new

Young Platform Pro is now even more “Pro”: with this latest update, we’ve introduced features explicitly tailored for professional traders. Discover what’s new.

At Young Platform, we’re committed to supporting the needs of advanced traders. That’s why we’ve redesigned the architecture of Young Platform Pro, introducing new features aimed at providing a complete and efficient trading experience. This isn’t just a cosmetic update—it’s a fundamental reimagining of the platform, placing the priorities of professional crypto traders at the very centre.

The importance of high-performance tools

Just as a surgeon achieves better precision and reduces risk with cutting-edge instruments, a trader operates more effectively and nimbly with a modern, high-performance platform. Maximum responsiveness, granular control, and uninterrupted operation are the cornerstones of the latest Young Platform Pro update. Let’s dive into the new features.

An interface designed for performance

The interface isn’t just an accessory—it’s a critical part of any trading strategy. It must be functional, easy to read, and optimised for all kinds of sessions, especially high-intensity ones. With the latest update:

  • Enhanced accessibility: Major improvements have been made in keyboard navigation and screen reader compatibility, making the platform more inclusive and professional.
  • Improved visual comfort: The colour palette has been redesigned to ensure high contrast and adhere to WCAG standards, based on the four POUR principles (Perceivable, Operable, Understandable, Robust). This helps reduce visual fatigue, especially during night sessions.
  • Optimised desktop design: The interface now makes better use of modern monitor form factors, increasing information density and minimising wasted space.

Customizable and synced setup across all devices

Experienced traders need to be able to switch between devices without skipping a beat. Consistency, fluidity, and coherence in the work environment are essential. With Young Platform Pro, you can now:

  • Build a fully customizable layout: Thanks to the new modular tab system, you can create your ideal setup tailored to your specific trading style. Every configuration is saved to your user profile and remains consistent across devices.
  • Sync chart studies to the cloud: Your TradingView analyses—indicators, trend lines, annotations—are no longer locked to a local device. They’re saved and synced in the cloud.
  • Set advanced options for each tab: Every section of your layout can be configured independently, allowing for detailed and precise control of your workspace.
  • View any tab in full screen: Each tab can be expanded to full screen, letting you focus entirely on charts or the order book when needed.

Total control over execution and trading operations

As we mentioned earlier, high-performance tools are essential for a professional trading experience. That’s why the core features of the order panel have been reengineered to deliver greater transparency, speed, and operational safety. Specifically:

  • Operational details always visible: You can now view detailed information on open and closed orders directly within the trading interface.
  • The Order Form has been enhanced:
    • Quick percentage selectors for capital allocation (25%, 50%, etc.).
    • Clearer information on fee calculation and alerts for Limit orders that may execute as Market orders.
    • A detailed order preview, which can be turned off for those who prefer a faster workflow.
  • Improved protection against user errors: A confirmation step has been added when cancelling open orders, helping to prevent accidental actions during high-pressure moments.
  • More flexibility in Market Buy: You can now place market orders using the base currency of the pair (e.g., 0.1 BTC on BTC/EUR), aligning with international platform standards.
  • Advanced tooltips: Every feature is now accompanied by contextual explanations, supporting both experienced traders and those exploring new functionalities.

API v4: optimised performance and speed

We know that automating strategies or building integrations requires instant, reliable data channels. As of March 2025, we’ve rolled out API v4, which reduces latency, enhances stability, and makes everything run more smoothly.

A professional trading experience: even on mobile

We understand that high-level traders keep a constant eye on the market and can’t afford operational interruptions.

With the introduction of mobile responsiveness, you can now enjoy a smooth, consistent, and high-performance experience from your smartphone or tablet. Monitoring, execution, and analysis are always at your fingertips—with no compromises compared to the desktop version.

Lastly—but by no means least—remember that we’ll continue to list new cryptocurrencies on a regular basis: the Young Platform team is constantly working to diversify and expand the range of tradable assets, so we can meet the needs of everyone who has chosen us. All of this is, of course, closely tied to our ongoing work to strengthen and optimise order-book liquidity.

Young Platform Pro has evolved.
It’s now a more mature, high-performance trading environment than ever before.

Discover it today and take your trading to the next level.

MiCA: Our Path Toward Full Regulatory Compliance 

With the entry into force of Regulation (EU) 2023/1114 on Markets in Crypto-Assets (MiCA), the European Union has introduced a harmonised regulatory framework governing the issuance, public offering, and trading of crypto-assets, as well as the services related to them. This marks a significant step forward for the entire sector, aimed at ensuring greater transparency, consumer protection, and market stability.

We are fully committed to aligning ourselves with this new regulatory framework in a responsible and diligent manner. The purpose of this article is to inform our users about the steps we are taking in accordance with Article 45, paragraph 5, of Legislative Decree 129/2024, which aligns national regulations with the MiCA framework. At the same time, we want to reassure users that there will be no immediate changes to their experience and that our services will remain uninterrupted.

What Article 45, Paragraph 5 of Legislative Decree 129/2024 Provides

Article 45, paragraph 1, of Legislative Decree 129/2024 establishes a transitional regime for entities legally operating in the EU prior to the MiCA application date, which is December 30, 2024.

In practice, this provision allows existing operators to continue offering their services without interruption until June 30, 2026, even if they haven’t yet obtained MiCA authorisation—provided they submit their authorisation request by December 30, 2025. This deadline was extended from the original date through the enactment of Decree Law No. 95/2025.

This transitional rule aims to ensure a smooth transition to the new framework, avoiding abrupt disruptions for operators and inconvenience for end-users.

Our Commitment to Compliance

In accordance with the MiCA Regulation and Article 45, paragraph 5, of Legislative Decree 129/2024, we would like to formally communicate our intention to fully comply with the new EU regulatory framework, and specifically with the MiCA Regulation.

We have already initiated all the necessary steps to prepare our authorisation request, which will be submitted by December 30, 2025, as required under Legislative Decree 129/2024 and Decree Law No. 95/2025. This includes updating our internal processes, organisational requirements, and risk management policies as mandated by the new framework.

Our legal and regulatory team is working diligently to ensure full compliance with MiCA, enabling us to continue providing secure, reliable, and transparent services to our clients.

Authorisation Process Underway

We can confirm that our company is actively working to submit the required MiCA authorisation request.

In the coming weeks, we will file the necessary documentation with the competent authority. This marks a key milestone in our compliance journey, reflecting our commitment to operate not only lawfully but also responsibly, in the best interest of our users.

It is important to note that, pending the issuance of our MiCA license, our services will continue to be governed by the current regulations applicable to virtual asset service providers (VASPs) and digital wallet service providers. These services are not yet subject to MiCA provisions during the transition.

Continuity of Service for Our Clients

We want to reassure all our users that our services will remain fully operational throughout the entire transition period set out in Article 45.

There will be no disruptions to the services you are accustomed to, nor any unilateral changes to your current contractual terms. Operational continuity is a top priority for us, and we will continue to uphold the quality, reliability, and security you expect.

We emphasise that, in accordance with current regulations, there will be no immediate impact on your user experience, and all services will remain accessible as usual.

No Immediate Impact on User Experience

As of now—and until further notice—no major changes are planned regarding how you interact with our platform. The available features, services, and terms of use will remain unchanged.

This means you can continue using our tools as usual, without needing to take any action on your part. Any future updates will be communicated clearly, in advance, and with full transparency.

Our Commitment to Transparency and Ongoing Updates

We believe it is essential to maintain open and transparent communication with you. That’s why we are committed to keeping you informed on the progress of our authorisation process and any regulatory developments that may affect our services.

Should any important updates arise, you will be the first to know through our official communication channels. If you have any questions or concerns, our customer support team is available to assist you.

Our ongoing commitment is to guarantee transparency, continuity, and security—today and in the future.


Multinetwork: transfer your crypto in the most convenient way

multinetwork

Transfer your cryptocurrencies via your preferred blockchain, to and from Young Platform, with Multinetwork.

Many in our community have been asking for the option to deposit and withdraw crypto through different networks, such as Layer-2 solutions. Here’s what that means and the advantages of Multinetwork.

What are networks?

While navigating the crypto market, you might use a wallet or a DeFi application.

To add cryptocurrencies to these wallets and use such applications, you’ll often need to go through an exchange to convert Euros into crypto.

At some point, you may also want to transfer the tokens you’ve obtained from these applications to the Young Platform—either to convert them or to store them in a simpler way for your tax declaration.

To move crypto from Young Platform to other crypto applications (and vice versa), you’ll need to use a blockchain network.

Here’s the key question: which blockchain should you use?

Every cryptocurrency is supported by specific blockchains (and networks). For example, BTC is mainly transferred via the Bitcoin network, ETH via Ethereum, and so on.

Over time, however, new blockchains have emerged—faster and cheaper ones—especially for moving Ethereum-based cryptocurrencies. Layer-2 solutions like Arbitrum, Optimism, and Polygon have made it possible for ETH and all ERC-20 tokens to circulate more efficiently and at lower costs.

That’s why many crypto applications now offer the option to use different blockchain networks. And now, you can do the same on Young Platform!

Which networks are supported?

Currently, Multinetwork supports ETH, USDC, and USDT—the most widely used cryptocurrencies in DeFi. More networks and assets will be added in the future.

You can always find the complete list of supported networks on the Fees and Prices page. For step-by-step instructions, visit our Support portal to learn how to deposit and withdraw.

Take advantage of Multinetwork to transfer your crypto in the fastest and most cost-effective way!

Warning: cryptocurrency transfers sent on the wrong network, or to the wrong wallet, or without a memo/tag may not be recoverable.

YNG Token: Q2 2025 Report (Uniswap Listing Edition)

Token Young (YNG): updates and news Q4 2024

The Q2 2025 report on the YNG token. What happened? What are the next steps?

The second quarter of 2025 will be remembered as a strategic turning point for our ecosystem. It was a period of intense work that culminated in a historic event: the arrival of Young (YNG) on the decentralised market. The enthusiasm of our community was palpable, with the token’s price seeing a sharp appreciation following the launch announcement, rising from around €0.20 at the beginning of July to a high of €0.45.

This Report analyses in detail the significance of this step, the strategies that made it possible, and above all, the following exciting developments. On the occasion of an event as important as the Uniswap launch, we have decided to make this edition of the report entirely public and accessible to everyone. We want the entire community, and beyond, to fully understand the scope of this turning point.

This is a notable exception: starting from the next edition, the report will return to being exclusive content, with detailed insights into numbers and strategies, reserved solely for our Club members. Suppose you are not yet one of us. In that case, this is the perfect opportunity to experience the level of transparency and detail we offer and to consider joining the Clubs to stay informed about future in-depth analyses.

The launch of YNG on Uniswap and CoinMarketCap

As repeatedly stated, the YNG listing is just the beginning. However, the third quarter of 2025 is, in a sense, the most important of the year, as it will culminate in the realisation of key projects that propel us toward our ultimate goal: to become a digital hub that merges the best of traditional finance (TradFi) and decentralised finance (DeFi).

The launch of YNG on the decentralised exchange Uniswap took place on July 17th. From that moment, and for the first time in history, our token became accessible to a global audience, marking our official entry into the world of DeFi. Concurrently, we secured listings on CoinMarketCap and CoinGecko, ensuring maximum visibility and transparency from the very first minute.

The Unbox: Young Platform’s richest prize competition ever

But the news doesn’t stop there. In recent weeks, we also launched “The Unbox,” our largest and most ambitious prize competition ever, with the primary goal of freeing participants from their preconceptions about finance.

With a prize pool that includes iconic prizes (like a Rolex Datejust and a Moto Guzzi V7) and new game mechanics, this event is designed to increase our community’s engagement and put them to the test, allowing users to win incredible prizes as a natural continuation of their journey exploring the crypto world.

In this context, YNG is the absolute star thanks to the Boost Holder, a mechanism that provides a tangible advantage to those who hold the token in their Young Platform wallet. Specifically, at the end of each week, users receive an extra Gem bonus, calculated based on the amount of YNG held in their wallet (tokens held in Clubs are excluded). It’s a simple, automatic, and merit-based system: the more YNG you own, the more bonus Gems you get, regardless of the missions completed. This is our way of rewarding those who choose to keep their capital in YNG during this key phase of its evolution.

OTC Allocation for Strategic Partners

During this quarter, a strategic allocation of 2,000,000 YNG tokens was almost entirely completed through an Over-the-Counter (OTC) sale that began on July 1, 2025. To date, 100% of the sales target in Euros has been reached, for a total of 474.766,22 €, corresponding to 1.722.440,88 YNG.

This initiative was reserved for selected profiles, High-Net-Worth Individuals (HNWIs), and top users of the platform, to strengthen our ecosystem by involving actors aligned with our long-term vision.

The offer included a minimum purchase of €5,000 and a tiered bonus structure to incentivise larger investments:

  • 5% bonus for purchases over €10,000
  • 10% bonus for purchases over €50,000
  • 15% bonus for purchases over €100,000

To discourage speculation and ensure long-term alignment, participants could opt for an additional 15% bonus by locking their tokens. The unlocking terms for these tokens include a 6-month total lock-up period (cliff), followed by a linear monthly release over the subsequent 6 months. The selection of participants was rigorous, ensuring that each partner shared our long-term oriented approach.

The proceeds from this allocation will be entirely reinvested to support YNG’s growth. Specifically, they will be used to finance upcoming marketing campaigns, potential listings on other centralised exchanges, and to fuel the token’s stability mechanisms, such as buyback programs and liquidity injections.

Given the success of the initiative, we have prepared a new allocation plan, which we will describe in detail in future updates. Unlike the OTC sale, this new plan entails that token purchases will be executed directly on the market. This means they will have a direct impact on the price of YNG. Further details on this future initiative and participation requirements, also based on Club membership, will be shared exclusively with Club members.

Economic Model Integration: Liquidity Injections and Periodic Buybacks

The following strategic step for YNG’s infrastructure is the activation of our new economic model, designed to support its value and liquidity over time.

The integration will be gradual: the mechanism will become fully operational only with the launch of new features, such as the payment account, the card, and perpetual futures trading, scheduled for the second half of 2025.

However, to provide tangible support to the token from its launch, we have chosen to activate an observation phase immediately. We have allocated a dedicated monthly budget and are ready to intervene to support the project if necessary. This initial phase will then be replaced by a portion of the platform’s revenues with the launch of the new features.

As stated multiple times, the economic model is based on two main actions:

  • Liquidity Injections: The funds will be used to add liquidity to the pools, making the market more stable and resilient.
  • Buyback (market purchase): If a liquidity injection creates an imbalance, the mechanism will use the funds to buy YNG on the market, realigning the value of the assets in the pool and supporting the price. The control and rebalancing between the quantity of Young (YNG), EURO, and USDC in the Pools will be carried out monthly.

To simplify, the process will work as follows:

  • Month 1: Assuming a monthly budget of €20,000, this entire sum is used to purchase the YNG token directly on the market. This buyback operation is intended to support the token’s price.
  • Month 2: The YNG tokens purchased in the previous month are paired with the current month’s budget. The asset pair (YNG and Euro) is then added to the liquidity pool, increasing the market’s depth and stability. The cycle repeats in the following months.

New Benefit for Clubs: Pulsee Energy

The second quarter of 2025 also brings a new, significant benefit for members of the Young Platform Clubs, designed to meet one of the most pressing needs of the moment and to enrich the user experience from a financial and practical standpoint.

In a context marked by the rising cost of living, we have forged a strategic partnership to offer a concrete and immediate advantage.

Pulsee Luce e Gas: a new energy for your finances. We have joined forces with Pulsee Luce e Gas, the 100% digital energy company of Axpo Italia, to give you greater control over your household expenses. This collaboration was born to offer you not only tangible savings but also an innovative and transparent experience, in line with the Young Platform philosophy.

Club members can now access an exclusive discount on their bills:

  • €140 discount on electricity and gas for Club Bronze & Silver members.
  • €160 discount on electricity and gas for Club Gold & Platinum members.

Pulsee offers energy from 100% renewable sources, fully digital management via an app, and zero paper constraints—a concrete way to cut costs where they weigh the most and protect your purchasing power.

This benefit adds to the others already active and demonstrates our ongoing commitment to enriching the value of the Clubs. New collaborations are already being defined to make the experience for our members ever more complete and distinctive.

Strategic Insights and On-Chain Data

The following section represents the level of in-depth analysis that is usually reserved exclusively for members of the Young Platform Clubs: confidential information, strategic data, and previews that are not publicly shared.

As a notable exception to celebrate the listing, we are making this content public. In these pages, you will discover the complete evolution of our ecosystem: from the organic growth of the YNG token, which we consider fundamental for it to remain “healthy,” to the new phase of our roadmap.

Listing on Uniswap, CoinMarketCap, CoinGecko

The launch of YNG on Uniswap was executed with a precise strategy, aimed at ensuring stability and maximum transparency for our community. In conjunction with the listing, we secured the presence of YNG on the two most important data aggregators in the world, CoinMarketCap and CoinGecko.

We are in direct contact with their respective teams to ensure that all information (supply, market data, etc.) is always accurate and up-to-date.

To create the market on Uniswap, we split the liquidity pools already present on our exchange, using part of those funds to develop the new decentralised pool on Uniswap V3. At the same time, to ensure clear on-chain visibility, we have structured the YNG supply into three main wallets:

1. Wallet: treasury & ecosystem rewards 

This is our main wallet, containing 66 million YNG. Its function is twofold:

  • Ecosystem Rewards: A portion of the funds fuels the benefits for Club members, such as enhanced staking, contest prizes, and future cashback.
  • Treasury: The other part serves as a strategic reserve to support the token’s long-term growth, financing the buyback mechanism, liquidity additions, and other future initiatives. We have chosen not to define the breakdown of these funds rigidly. This flexibility is crucial to seize opportunities that will arise in the coming years and to continue rewarding our most loyal users, while always keeping inflation under control. 

Wallet Address (Etherscan): 0xe237A24f67457d32a294b9F21C026C63C7a66B15

2. Exchange Hot Wallet 

This wallet contains approximately 24.9 million YNG and represents the circulating supply held by users on our platform. If you are a YNG holder on our exchange and have not withdrawn the tokens to an external wallet, your funds are safe here. 

Wallet Address (Etherscan): 0x2Ce9f4Fc52AF5498B99597141E66a4273Aa74983

3. Team Wallet 

 7% share of the total YNG supply, equivalent to 7 million tokens, has been allocated to an incentive plan for the team. The objective of this reserve is to align the interests of our staff with the long-term growth of Young Platform, rewarding their strategic contribution. The distribution of 5% of the total token supply will begin in early August and will follow a four-year gradual vesting mechanism. This system ensures a constant commitment over time. Should a team member end their collaboration with the company, they would forfeit the right to receive the unvested portions of the tokens. Furthermore, to support the company’s expansion goals, the 2 million YNG (equal to 2% of the total supply) not yet allocated will be reserved for the recruitment of future talent.

Wallet Address (Etherscan): 0xA26Cbb76156090f4B40A1799A220fc4C946aFB3c

The management of the entire reserve will be carried out with maximum transparency; it will be possible to monitor the amount of tokens released into the market by directly analysing the holders section on Etherscan. Moreover, the issuance of these tokens will be regulated by a mechanism linked to the market capitalisation, which will align the increase in supply with the project’s growth.

4. Wallet for Uniswap Liquidity (LP Token) 

This wallet contains the tokens that represent the liquidity provided by Young Platform to the decentralised exchange Uniswap. 

What are LP tokens? When you provide liquidity to a pool on Uniswap, you deposit two tokens in a “pair” (in this case, YNG and another asset, like ETH). In return, Uniswap issues LP (Liquidity Provider) tokens

These tokens act as a “receipt”: they prove ownership of a share of that liquidity and entitle you to receive a portion of the fees generated each time someone trades the tokens in that pair. This wallet holds these LP tokens, guaranteeing YNG’s liquidity on the decentralised market of Uniswap. As of 07/27/2025, the liquidity locked at this address corresponds to 1,732,074 YNG

The Numbers for Young Platform Clubs in Q2 2025

Let’s now turn to the numbers from the last few months. As you know, YNG is the utility token of Young Platform and grants access to the Clubs: subscription plans that offer significant advantages both on our crypto services and on a selection of brands designed to enrich every aspect of your financial life. First, a clarification is necessary: due to a tracking error related to past promotions, the member data reported in previous reports was not entirely correct. Specifically, some users who were taking advantage of a promotional access to our first Club level, an initiative aimed at testing new engagement strategies, were mistakenly counted. Below are the updated and certified data.

As of 07/27/2025, the Clubs are composed of 1,830 people, divided as follows:

  • 1,205 for Club Bronze;
  • 275 for Club Silver;
  • 156 for Club Gold;
  • 194 for Club Platinum;

This data also allows us to analyse the token’s distribution. The more people join a Club, the more YNG is locked, thus reducing the circulating supply. Consequently, this dynamic contributes to greater price stability for YNG. At the end of the first quarter of 2025, Club members numbered 1,797, marking a growth of about 1%. At first glance, the growth may seem modest. Still, the data must be interpreted in light of another factor: the choice of many users to leave the Clubs to have their tokens available for the listing and to capitalise on a potential price increase of Young (which did indeed happen) to realise a profit.

Below is a chart summarising the growth of Club members from the launch of Young (YNG) on our platform to today. We intend to build a dedicated dashboard accessible to Club members through which it will be possible to see, in real time, how the adoption of our loyalty programs evolves.

YNG Token: Q2 2025 Report (Uniswap Listing Edition)

YNG Token Distribution

In the period between early April and late July 2025, the circulating supply of YNG increased from approximately 24 to 27 million tokens. It is crucial to clarify the nature of this increase immediately: it is not the result of new emissions, but the consequence of a strategic OTC allocation, as previously discussed in the report. These 3 million tokens are now included in the circulating supply calculation because they have left the treasury wallet. However, most are subject to vesting periods and are therefore not immediately available on the market.

This strategic dynamic is coupled with the protocol’s organic inflation, stemming from rewards, which, by contrast, has remained at exceptionally low levels. The analysis of the second quarter (Q2) of 2025 confirms this:

  • Step Rewards: 33,851 YNG
  • Staking Rewards: 3,929 YNG
  • Total Q2 Emissions: 37,780 YNG

This total represents a quarterly inflation rate of just 0.14% relative to the circulating supply.

YNG Token: Q2 2025 Report (Uniswap Listing Edition)

Having defined the composition of the supply, let’s move on to its distribution across the markets. With the listing on Uniswap, YNG’s liquidity was split to support both the CEX and the DEX. As of July 27, 2025, the situation is as follows:

  • YNG/EUR Pool (on Young Platform):
    • 621,000 Euros
    • 1.734 million YNG
  • YNG/USDC Pool (on Uniswap – Ethereum):
    • 723,905 USDC
    • 1.733 million YNG

This configuration is the result of the purchases and sales made on the two markets where Young (YNG) is currently active, summarised below along with the price trend.

What happened during Q2 2025 from a tokenomics perspective?

From a tokenomics perspective, the quantity of tokens issued during the quarter remained in line with previous periods, consistent with our policy of controlled inflation.

This approach, which limits the increase in supply much more significantly than the crypto market average, represents a fundamental strength for YNG’s stability. This characteristic, combined with the new economic model that will be implemented with the launch of new features at the end of Q3 2025, strengthens our prospects for sustainable growth.

A more in-depth analysis of the current circulating supply reveals a strategic division between locked tokens and freely tradable tokens:

  • Illiquid YNG: approximately 11.2 million YNG (just under half of the circulating supply) are not immediately available for sale. This figure includes tokens deposited in Clubs, those subject to lock-up periods following the OTC sale, those contained within the liquidity pools, and those on Step.
  • Liquid YNG: consequently, the amount of tokens actually “sellable” on the market amounts to approximately 8.6 million.

The rest of the circulating supply is distributed within the ecosystem, mainly on Step and in the two currently active liquidity pools.

The Price of YNG

The second quarter of 2025 marked a turning point for Young (YNG), characterised by exceptional price performance and the achievement of a fundamental strategic objective: listing on a decentralised market.

After a phase of remarkable stability for much of the quarter, with the price hovering around the €0.20 level, the situation changed radically in early July. The announcement of the imminent listing on Uniswap triggered a sudden surge, fueled by the positive reaction of the community.

Intense buying pressure pushed the token above €0.27 in a single day, and then, within a week, it broke the previous all-time high of €0.30. This rally peaked in the week of the launch, when YNG set a new all-time high around €0.50, marking an appreciation of about +120% since the end of June.

The enthusiasm was such that, at the time of listing, the price even briefly touched the one-dollar mark on the on-chain pool. While we appreciate this performance, our goal remains steady and organic growth, avoiding excessive volatility and linking the token’s value to its real utility within the platform.

The Next Steps

The listing on Uniswap is not a destination, but the beginning of a new phase of expansion. Our strength lies not in short-term hype, but in building a solid, secure, and valuable ecosystem. Our course for the coming months is set and is based on three fundamental pillars:

1. Global Expansion and Targeted Marketing 

The launch on Uniswap kicks off our first true international marketing campaign to make the project known far beyond Italy’s borders. It’s not just about promoting the token, but about making the entire Young Platform ecosystem accessible and attractive to a global audience, increasing its utility and avoiding purely speculative logic. We will act with a strategic and measured approach, collaborating with agencies and KOLs (Key Opinion Leaders) specialised in the Web3 sector. Thanks to a flexible structure, we will analyse data in real time to focus investments on the highest-impact activities, thus ensuring organic and sustainable growth.

2. Continuous Platform Development 

While the market focuses on price, our team remains focused on our primary mission: building tangible value. Our development roadmap continues unabated, and the release of the announced new features, such as the payment account, the card, and the integration of futures, is our top priority. We firmly believe that the growth of YNG’s value in the long term will not be dictated by hype, but by its real utility. Every new product we integrate into the ecosystem creates new use cases for YNG, increasing its organic demand and offering our community more concrete reasons to hold and use it.

3. Strategic Activation of the Economic Model 

In parallel with development, we will activate our new economic model, designed to link the platform’s successes to the token’s stability. The implementation will be gradual: in an initial phase, until the launch of the account and the card, we will be in “observation mode,” carefully monitoring the market to act with targeted support operations where necessary. Subsequently, the mechanism will become fully operational. A portion of the platform’s revenues — generated from trading fees, the Step app, and staking — will be systematically used to perform YNG buybacks or to inject liquidity into the pools, creating a virtuous cycle that supports the token’s value over time.

Conclusions

The second quarter of 2025 concludes by marking a historic turning point for the Young Platform ecosystem. The listing of YNG on Uniswap was not just a technical milestone, but the beginning of a new era of global accessibility and integration into the world of decentralised finance. The enthusiasm of our community and the positive market reaction, which brought the token to a new all-time high, confirm the validity of our vision.

As we have detailed in this report, every step — from the strategic OTC allocation to the launch of The Unbox competition — has been guided by a single principle: the construction of long-term value. Our course remains firm and focused on organic growth, the real utility of the token, and the constant strengthening of our ecosystem, shielded from purely speculative dynamics.

The coming months will be just as intense. We will proceed with determination along the three strategic pillars we have outlined: the expansion of our marketing globally, the release of new and fundamental features like the account, the card, and futures, and the progressive activation of our economic model. We are convinced that these initiatives will further consolidate the position of YNG and our ecosystem.

Your support as Club members is and remains our greatest asset. We thank you for your trust and invite you to continue following us in this exciting chapter of our journey.

Young (YNG) lands in the DeFi world: the listing on Uniswap

Young (YNG) lands in DeFi: listing on Uniswap

After years of growth within our ecosystem, we are ready for one of the most important steps in our history. This is why the launch of YNG on Uniswap is not a destination, but a new, exciting beginning.

On 17 July, something we have been waiting for a long time will happen, a fundamental milestone in our journey. We are incredibly excited to announce that our token, Young (YNG), will be officially launched on the Ethereum blockchain, specifically on the decentralized exchange Uniswap and simultaneously listed on CoinMarketCap

But that’s not all! In the coming days, we will also kick off a new, incredible prize competition in which YNG will be one of the main protagonists. This is not just a listing. It is the moment we open the doors of our ecosystem to the entire world.

What does this launch mean for the Community and for YNG?

Since its inception in 2018, YNG has lived and thrived within our ecosystem. It has been the tool to reward education with Step, the key to accessing exclusive Club benefits, and the symbol of our community’s trust. 

Until today, however, it was a treasure shared only among our users. 

With the launch on Uniswap, everything changes. YNG becomes a global asset, accessible to anyone, anywhere, without barriers. It enters the world of decentralized finance (DeFi) on Ethereum, opening up to a universe of new possibilities and an international audience. For you, who are part of our community or are approaching YNG for the first time, this means more visibility and the first, true interaction of our token with the global market.

The foundations supporting the launch

We arrive at this moment after more than six years of work and strategic choices designed for long-term stability. This launch is not a gamble, but the next step in a journey built on solid pillars. 

  • A “Community-First” philosophy: our company’s growth has been supported by top-tier institutional partners like Azimut, who have invested in our company’s equity, not in the token. We have consciously chosen not to sell YNG to Venture Capital funds to protect our community from dilution and speculative sales. 
  • A tokenomics based on scarcity: the strength of YNG lies in an economic structure designed to create real value. Scarcity is one of its cornerstones: a huge portion of its circulating supply (currently more than 70%) is locked in our Clubs, on Step, or in liquidity pools. 
  • A sustainable economic model: the economic mechanism that we will integrate shortly, fueled by buybacks financed by platform revenues and by liquidity injections, will allow us to actively support the token’s value.

Why Uniswap?

For such an important event, we chose not only the best platform, but the best technology. The launch will take place on Uniswap V3. This technical choice was made for a specific reason: to protect and stabilize the YNG market from the very first minute. 

Reaching this milestone is not a finish line, but a new starting point. It is the moment when the project we have carefully cultivated with our community presents itself to the world

We are proud of the journey we have made and incredibly excited for the future we will build, now more than ever, together with you. The next chapter of our story is about to begin.

But the best is yet to come…

The utility of YNG is constantly expanding. In addition to the real benefits already available to Club members, such as up to 90% discount on trading fees and a boost on staking returns, we have formed exclusive partnerships with successful brands like WeRoad, Serenis, and Milano Finanza, to offer value that goes beyond the crypto world. Consistent with our roadmap, Club members will get privileges like cashback on the debit card (up to 3.6%) and exclusive benefits on Futures trading

And that’s not all: YNG will be one of the protagonists in the new prize competition that we will launch in the coming days. Reaching this milestone is not a finish line, but a new starting point. 

We are proud of the journey we have made and incredibly excited for the future we will build, now more than ever, together with you. Are you already a YNG hodler? Buy Young (YNG) and join the Clubs now!

Token YNG: Q1 2025 Report

Token Young (YNG): updates and news Q4 2024

The Q1 2025 Report on the YNG Token. What has happened? What are the next steps?

The first months of 2025 have concluded with tangible results for our ecosystem, and, most importantly, several key developments related to our strategy for organic growth. Amid evolving regulations and the launch of new services, we are laying the foundations to make Young Platform increasingly central to the financial lives of our users.

There are also several updates specifically concerning the Young (YNG) token, the beating heart of our ecosystem. The strategy we have adopted aims to facilitate the token’s organic growth while mitigating the risk of excessive selling pressure that could undermine its long-term stability and value. However, this section appears exclusively in the members-only version of our report, which for the first time will be split into two editions:

  • A public version, accessible to all, outlining the achievements reached and new services launched.
  • An exclusive version, reserved for Club members, providing in-depth insights into data, future strategies—including key strategic decisions concerning the growth of the YNG token—and updates on the Young (YNG) tokenomics, including figures on issuance, distribution, and, for this edition, additional information on decentralised listing.

If you’re overcome with curiosity, there’s only one thing to do: join one of the Young Platform Clubs. If you’re already a member… what are you still doing here? Check your inbox: the deluxe version—musically speaking—of this report is waiting for you.

2025 So Far: Achievements and Newly Released Features

During the initial months of 2025, a significant part of our efforts has been dedicated to addressing the regulatory and fiscal aspects of the crypto sector. In addition to the work initiated months ago to ensure compliance with the European Markets in Crypto-Assets Regulation (MiCA), we have launched initiatives focused on taxation to provide our users with comprehensive tools to handle their tax declarations in a simple, secure, and compliant manner in line with Italian regulations.

At the same time, we have continued to advance our planned strategic projects. Our overarching goal for this year remains clear: to become a digital hub that merges the best of traditional finance (TradFi) and decentralised finance (DeFi). However, the path to achieving this is now enriched with new, early milestones.

Young Platform’s Tax Services

For three years, we have been supporting our users with tailored financial solutions. What began as a simple report has evolved into a full-fledged ecosystem of tools designed to make the tax declaration process quick and stress-free. Today, we offer the following documents, all updated for the 2025 tax filing season:

  • Young Platform Tax Report: For those who use our exchange exclusively.
  • Young-Okipo Tax Report: For users active on multiple exchanges, including decentralised platforms, those holding NFTs, or engaging with DeFi protocols.
  • Transaction Report: To neatly archive the history of trades, orders, and Smart Trades.
  • Stamp Duty Receipt: To be retained for any potential tax audits.
  • Crypto Accountant Service: For those who prefer to rely on an expert to manage their tax declaration directly.

The Box

One of the standout features of Q1 2025 has undoubtedly been The Box, our competition designed to make the world of finance more accessible, dynamic, and engaging. The initiative has proven to be a great success, with thousands of users actively participating, completing missions, climbing the leaderboard, and contributing to the ongoing development of the Young Platform ecosystem. The current competition is scheduled to conclude on 31 May, and shortly thereafter, we will announce the winners and distribute the prizes.

At the heart of the initiative is the Young Card, our phosphorescent debit card offering cashback in YNG. It is a cornerstone of our long-term vision.

Club Price Rebalancing Mechanism

Since 4 February 2025, access to Young Platform’s Clubs has been governed by a monthly price adjustment mechanism based on the market value of YNG. The objective is to maintain a stable entry cost in euros, ensuring a balance between accessibility and the token’s value:

  • If the price of YNG decreases, the number of tokens required increases proportionally.
  • If the price of YNG increases, the number of tokens required decreases, though less sharply, thanks to a discount factor.

This system, with pricing updated on the first Tuesday of each month, prevents the Clubs from becoming either excessively exclusive or too inexpensive in the event of significant price fluctuations.

Updated Prices for May 2025 (YNG Price = €0.193):

  • Bronze: 1,865 YNG
  • Silver: 6,217 YNG
  • Gold: 12,435 YNG
  • Platinum: 31,088 YNG

New Club Benefits

The first quarter of 2025 has also been particularly rewarding for members of Young Platform’s Clubs, with the introduction of new exclusive benefits designed to enrich the user experience both financially and personally. Here are some of the most notable additions:

  • BuiltDifferent: A personalised fitness and nutrition platform that allows users to follow tailored workout programmes, access advanced nutritional plans, and enhance their lifestyle—wherever they are. All of this is offered under significantly more favourable conditions than those of a traditional personal trainer.
  • Milano Finanza: One of Italy’s most authoritative sources for investors. Club members now enjoy free access to premium content and daily analysis on markets, macroeconomics, and investment strategies—a practical tool for making better-informed decisions.
  • Serenis: Italy’s number one online medical centre for psychological support. Through our partnership, Club members benefit from access to counselling and therapeutic support at preferential rates, because financial and emotional well-being should always go hand in hand.

These benefits are in addition to the already extensive range of advantages available to Club members—from financial education and exclusive privileges on crypto services to personal well-being and new growth opportunities.

And this is just the beginning: new partnerships are already in development to make the Young Clubs even more comprehensive, distinctive, and aligned with a truly holistic vision of value.

An example? Exclusive access to the most analytical and data-rich section of this Report. While transparency has always guided us in publicly sharing all information related to the YNG token—including supply, purchases, sales, and emissions—starting with this first quarter of 2025, we have chosen to reserve such in-depth analyses exclusively for our Club members, who are direct holders of Young (YNG) and primary supporters of our ecosystem.

Our most engaged supporters deserve full transparency regarding the strategies shaping the future. Therefore, in the members-only version of this Report, we delve into the measures adopted to safeguard the value of YNG and foster sustainable, organic growth.

We will explore plans for the token’s future presence on the decentralised market and clearly outline the carefully considered reasons behind our decision to decline specific proposals from certain venture capital firms concerning the YNG token. This was a strategic decision made to protect our community from potential selling pressure and the dilution of the token’s value.

These strategic insights are a privilege reserved for those who actively live and shape the Young Platform ecosystem.
