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.
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.
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.
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 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.
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.
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!
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.

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 ofYNG 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.
How does crowdfunding operate in the cryptocurrency sector? It is an innovative approach to raising capital.
Cryptocurrency crowdfunding is a new, direct, immediate, simple and participative way to raise capital. This approach has gained popularity because it allows companies and individuals to quickly access funding or invest in rapidly growing startups.
Businesses seeking financial support and individuals wanting to fund their projects can use cryptocurrencycrowdfunding platforms. These platforms enable them to reach a broad base of potential investors without depending on traditional banking channels or venture capital. In this article, we will explore crypto crowdfunding and how it works.
What it is and how it works
Crypto crowdfunding is a fundraising method that utilises cryptocurrencies instead of traditional fiat currency as the primary sourceofcapital. Unlike conventional fundraising, this process often occurs without intermediaries or third parties, enabling investors to access opportunities directly.
This approach significantly speeds up the fundraising process and improves security and transparency. Today, startups can leverage blockchain technology and smart contracts to raise capital quickly and efficiently, bypassingthe cumbersome procedures that were common before the digital age.
The advantages of crowdfunding in crypto
Cryptocurrency crowdfunding offers several advantages over traditional funding methods. First, it is generally more efficient, faster, and flexible, providing a reliable infrastructure. This efficiency is crucial for both companies seeking funding and investors.
Companies benefit from the security provided by smart contracts, which leverage the transparency of blockchain technology to manage fundraising effectively. The blockchain permanently records all transactions and details related to fundraising, ensuring complete transparency. This allows investors to monitor how their funds are used in real-time.
Additionally, cryptocurrency crowdfunding provides global access to investors, eliminating the geographical barriers often found in traditional funding. Like conventional crowdfunding, investors are encouraged and supported in evaluating the organisations or projects they wish to fund, but they have access to more independent information for their research.
The main types
There are various types of crowdfunding in the crypto space, with the most well-known—though often misused—being Initial Coin Offerings (ICOs). This fundraising method can be safeand beneficial; a prime example is the ICO of Ethereum, which allowed the project’s first supporters, led by Vitalik Buterin, to invest early on. However, when successful ideas emerge, they tend to be exploited by many, including those with questionable intentions who are simply looking to profit.
Only two parties typically participate in Initial Coin Offerings (ICOs): the company and the investors. Initially, the start-up launching the fundraising event presents its project to potential investors through awhitepaper summarising the business plan. Additionally, the presence of a token is crucial, and it must have a specific function. For example, the token may grant investors access to certain services related to the product or provide them with a share of the company’s future dividends.
Following the rise and decline of Initial Coin Offerings (ICOs), new forms of crowdfunding in the cryptocurrency space emerged, including Initial Exchange Offerings (IEOs). IEOs signify a notable advancement in crypto crowdfunding, as cryptocurrency exchange platforms directly handle them. Unlike independent ICOs, IEOs involve an exchange that oversees the crowdfunding process.
The main advantages of Initial Exchange Offerings (IEOs) include:
1. Increased Security: IEOs are conducted on regulated exchange platforms, providing investors greater trust and security than Initial Coin Offerings (ICOs), often linked to fraud and scams.
2. Access to Markets: IEOs provide startups with a direct channel to investors through the exchange platform, enabling them to access a large user base without establishing their investor network.
3. Simplified Procedures: IEOs streamline the participation process, allowing investors to use funds directly from their accounts on the exchange platform. This eliminates creating a separate digital wallet or navigating complex procedures.
4. Technical Support: Exchange platforms hosting IEOs typically offer technical support and assistance to investors and startups, reducing the risk of errors when purchasing cryptocurrencies.
5. Regulation: Since IEOs are hosted on regulated platforms, rules and procedures are established to prevent illegal activities and fraudulent behaviour and ensure compliance with national and international laws.
Initial Exchange Offerings (IEOs) provide a secureand convenient way forstart-ups to raise funds through cryptocurrencies and forinvestors to participate in these projects. Thanks to blockchaintechnology,IEOs enable quick andtransparent transactions.

Download the new version of the app. In addition to the Crypto section, we are developing the Save and Cash sections that will change how you manage your finances!
In recent years, Young Platform has emerged as one of the leading players in the European cryptocurrency industry. Founded in 2018 as an exchange, the platform has always aimed to make the world of cryptocurrency accessible to everyone. Today, Young Platform is taking a significant step in its evolution by transitioning from a simple exchange to a crypto-native payment account. This change marks the beginning of a new era for the platform and its users, who will have access to more comprehensive and integrated financial tools.
Young Platform’s new interface features three main sections: Crypto, Save, and Cash. This structure allows users to manage their finances in a more organised and intuitive manner:
Crypto: This is the platform’s core, focused on buying, selling, and managing digital assets. Users can easily trade cryptocurrencies and utilise advanced tools like Smart Trades and Staking to enhance their trading experience.
Save (coming soon): This upcoming section will enable users to manage their savings, set financial goals, and create automatic accumulation plans.
Cash (coming soon): This section will be dedicated to cash management in euros and equipped with advanced payment tools. Users will be able to receive salaries, make transfers, and use the Young card for everyday expenses.
This transformation marks a significant evolution in the industry, bridging the gap between traditional finance and cryptocurrency.
A revolutionised user experience
The platform has been redesigned to provide a smoother, more intuitive user experience. The interface ensures simple and accessible navigation, even for less experienced users. Users will be able to customise theirhomepage by setting up widgets and specific preferences to monitor their portfolios, profits, losses, and market performance.
Additionally, Young Platform has introduced a notification system that keeps users updated on portfolio performance and new opportunities, as well as the release of new features. Don’t forget to activate these notifications from the profilesection and thenewsletters!
Access to financial education is also a key focus of the platform. With a dedicated section for guides and insights, Young Platform aims to equip users with the necessary skills to make informed financial decisions.
The Box competition: win the Young Card!
To celebrate this significant change, Young Platform is launching “The Box” competition and offering exclusive prizes to participants. One of the most coveted prizes is the Young Card, which provides cashback of up to 3.6 %* and real benefits on everyday purchases.
The competition rewards our most loyal users and encourages them to explore the platform’s new features and embrace the ongoing changes. Participating is simple: Follow the instructions on the platform to accumulate gems and stand a chance to win exclusive prizes, including Apple devices, Sony products, Amazon vouchers, and more!
With the transition to a crypto-native payment account, security has become a greater priority for Young Platform. The platform employs advanced protocols to safeguard users’ funds and data, and new authentication systems have been introduced to provide even more secure access.
Another significant innovation is obtaining a personal IBAN, enabling users to receive payments directly to their Young account. This feature enhances the platform’s versatility, making it suitable for a wide range of users, from experienced traders to those who simply want to manage their liquidity more effectively.
Towards the future: the integration of traditional assets
Young Platform’s evolution is ongoing. By the end of 2025, the platform intends to incorporate investments in traditional assets, providing an increasingly comprehensive experience. This shift will establish Young Platform as a leader not only in the cryptocurrency space but also in overall financial management.
Integrating ETFs and other traditional financialinstruments will allow users to diversify their investments without switching between multiple platforms. The aim is to create a complete financial ecosystem in which every investor, regardless of experience level, can find the right tools to grow their capital.
This expansion is crucial to attracting a wider audience, particularly those who have previously viewed cryptocurrencies with scepticism. By bringing traditional assets into a native crypto platform, the aim is to break down the barriers between these two worlds and offer a practical solution for asset management.
The impact of regulation and Young Platform’s vision
Young Platform has recently achieved payment account status, enhancing its compliance with European regulations and providing users with a secure and regulated environment. By adhering to the MiCA (Markets in Crypto-Assets) regulations and obtaining the necessary licenses, the platform is taking significant steps toward being recognised as a key player in the financial sector.
This regulation offers excellent consumer protection and enables Young Platform to operate in a more stable and transparent environment. Young Platform aims to set an example of compliance and transparency, distinguishing itself from many international platforms functioning in unregulated settings.
Another essential aspect of Young Platform is the decentralisation of financialmanagement. Drawing from the principles of the blockchain ecosystem, the platform empowers users to maintain control over their funds and investment decisions.
A new way of experiencing digital finance
The future of digital finance goes beyond technology and involves the mindset with which people manage their capital. Young Platform is redefining wealth management by providing tools that enable anyone to invest with knowledge and security.
In a world where bureaucratic barriers and rigid institutions often hinder access to financial services, Young Platform presents an innovative and inclusive solution. It aims to create an ecosystem where blockchain technologycan coexist with traditionalfinancial tools, all while maintaining security, reliability, and accessibility.
Download the new version.
Young Platform is evolving from a sole exchange to a complete ecosystem integrating traditional and crypto finance into a single interface. With the introduction of the payment account and the restructured Crypto, Save, and Cash sections, users will gain access to more advanced and organized investment tools.
The ‘Box’ competition marks just the beginning of this new phase. Young Platform is committed to continuous innovation and aims to provide an increasingly competitive, cutting-edge solution. In this true financial hub, users can develop their wealth growth strategies by combining traditional and innovative approaches.
*Cashback depends on club membership and level: the higher the level, the higher the percentage. Platinum Club members get up to 3.6%.
Does your company have a cryptocurrency portfolio or engage in trading? Subaccounts are the best way to manage different strategies or delegate activities.
Discover how to effectively manage your corporate cryptocurrency portfolio using Young Platform’s sub-accounts.
What are Sub-Accounts?
In a trading platform, a ‘Sub Account’ (SA) is a subordinate account to a primary account, known as a ‘Master Account‘ (MA). The MA can create multiple secondary and segregated accounts, each designated for a different purpose.
Subaccounts are typically used for various reasons, primarily to manage funds or assets separately. Here are some common scenarios where the Sub Account functionality can be beneficial:
Management: Sub-accounts enable traders to allocate funds for different trading strategies or markets. For instance, a trader might have one SA dedicated to day trading and another for long-term investments.
Monitoring: With sub-accounts, transactions executed in different strategies or portfolios can be monitored separately. This feature simplifies record-keeping and performance evaluation.
Risk Management: Sub-accounts allow traders to set appropriate risk limits for various trading activities, helping to prevent excessive losses in a specific account.
In summary, Subaccounts provide greater flexibility and control in fund management. Now, let’s explore the advantages of using the Young Platform service.
Young Platform Pro Sub-Accounts
The functionality is available on demand and exclusively from the Pro version of Young Platform, making it very simple and intuitive. First, let’s see what it entails.
The Master Account has full powers to:
Depositing and withdrawing funds to and from any AS
Transfer funds between accounts (free of charge, no commission)
Viewing and managing HS orders
Checking HS balances
Displaying transactions executed by ASs
Enabling or disabling specific cryptocurrency pairs for individual ASs
Remove SA
Resetting HS passwords
Viewing the access history of ASs
In addition, Sub-Accounts can be classified as either ‘Managed’ or ‘External’. The ‘Managed’ mode is intended for the company’s legal representative who wants to utilise both a Managed Account (MA) and an Automated Strategy (AS). On the other hand, the ‘External’ mode is more suitable for teams. In the ‘External’ mode, the legal representative oversees the MA, while the AS can be assigned to team members or collaborators.
One significant advantage of Young Platform is the ability to combine this functionality with other services, such as the Only Euro Bot. This integration simplifies receiving cryptocurrencies in your account without hindering your ability to make recurring trades or purchases.
The Only Euro Bot facilitates handling crypto payments by automaticallyconverting them into euros. However, this process can interfere with trading activities. Sub-Accounts quickly resolve the issue: you can activate the Bot on one account while using the other account to focus on your market strategy.

Complete guide on how Quests, Gems, the Championship and prizes work
From 9 December to 10 March, The Reveal Championship takes place. Every activity completed in these weeks can earn you Gems and help you climb the leaderboard, but only if you remember to claim them. Otherwise, they will be lost when the Quests refresh.
Differences Between Championship and Tournaments in Brief
The Reveal competition runs on two parallel tracks: the Championship and the Tournaments.
The Championship is the overall leaderboard based on the total number of Gems accumulated throughout the competition; the winner is the one who demonstrates consistency and strategy.
In fact, the most significant prizes – such as the Rolex Submariner, the KTM Duke 125, and tickets to the F1 Monza Grand Prix – are awarded here to the top 20 ranked players.
The Tournament, on the other hand, is a series of mini-competitions that renew every fortnight. Don’t know the Tournament rules? Find all the info at this link: The Reveal: How Tournaments and Tickets Work.
This guide focuses on how the Championship works. We’ll explain how to get Gems, climb the leaderboard, and maximise every opportunity to get closer to the podium – or at least the top 20.
If you’re serious about winning, this is where you start.
What Are Quests?
Quests are activities you can perform directly on the Young Platform app. Each completed Quest allows you to earn Gems, the fundamental unit for climbing the leaderboard or obtaining Tickets valid for the lottery.
Championship Quest Categories: Watch Their Duration
In the Championship, not all Quests are created equal: they can be unique, meaning that a specific Quest will not appear again, or repeatable, meaning they are cyclical.
In addition to varying in frequency of appearance, Quests are divided into three other main categories, designed to reward those who tackle The Reveal with determination.
They can be:
Daily: Available in the App for 24 hours, allowing you to accumulate Gems quickly.
Weekly: Remain active for 7 days because they are more complex than daily ones. For this reason, once completed, you will be entitled to a higher Gem reward.
Permanent: Last for the entire competition and are tied to the Championship.
Warning! Most Quests require a Manual Claim! So remember to redeem the Gems once the Quest is completed: when it expires, the associated Gems “expire” too – and disappear with the Quest.
What Are Gems Used For?
Gems have two fundamental functions. Firstly, they boost your score in the general leaderboard, called the Championship. The more Gems you accumulate, the higher you climb.
Secondly, they unlock Tickets. On this point, pay attention because the Ticket issuance mechanism has changed: while with The Unbox, you earned a Ticket for every 100 Gems accumulated, for The Reveal, we have built a tiered system, as follows:
Tier 1 – from 0 to 500 Gems accumulated: 1 Ticket every 30 Gems
Tier 2 – from 501 to 1,500 Gems accumulated: 1 Ticket every 100 Gems
Tier 3 – from 1,501 to 3,000 Gems accumulated: 1 Ticket every 200 Gems
Tier 4 – from 3,001 Gems accumulated onwards: 1 Ticket every 300 Gems
To summarise, the more Gems you possess, the more “expensive” it will be to obtain Tickets. Why this change? To democratise the game and allow more people to participate in the prize draw.
Clearly, Gems are non-transferable and cannot be converted into cash: they are valid only within the competition.
How Do You Participate in the Championship?
To participate in the championship (i.e., the general Gem leaderboard), you must:
Download or update the Young Platform app.
Log in or register for your personal account.
Sign up for The Reveal in the app and accept the rules.
Complete Quests to collect Gems.
The leaderboard is unique and updates in real-time. At the end of the competition, the top 20 ranked users will receive the main prizes. In the event of a tie, the winner is whoever reached the score first.

How Do You Earn Extra Gems with YNG?
Throughout the duration of the Championship, anyone who holds YNG in their main Wallet on the Young Platform receives a weekly Gem bonus. It is an automatic recognition for those who support the project and choose to hold the YNG token.
Warning:YNG tokens locked for Club membership are excluded from the calculation. Only those held freely in the main Wallet are counted.
The operation is simple and meritocratic: every week, the amount of YNG you possess is detected, and based on that, you are assigned several extra Gems. No manual actions or Quests to complete are needed: the Gems arrive directly in your balance.
There are 7 bonus levels, each tied to a holding bracket. If you buy a new YNG and level up, the number of weekly Gems will increase. Conversely, if you sell or transfer YNG, you could drop a level and receive fewer Gems the following week.
The system is dynamic: each week, you can go up or down based on your wallet movements.
How Can You Earn Gems Outside the App?
With Zealy, you can complete social micro-activities (liking posts, following official Young Platform profiles, commenting, participating on Discord) and convert actions into points, which then transform into Gems to use in the competition.
A useful shortcut for those new to trypto who want to start simply.
If you want to know more, find the dedicated article here: Zealy, the “secret” key for The Reveal competition.
How to Receive Prizes
To receive prizes, you must complete identity verification (KYC) to activate your Young Platform account as a current account.
Without this step, even if you are a winner, you will not be able to redeem prizes.
Ready?
The Reveal is much more than a competition: it is a gamified ecosystem designed to engage you, reward your consistency, and entertain you whilst you discover the Young Platform universe.
Whether you are competitive or curious, every Quest can become an opportunity. And every Gem can bring you closer to a tangible prize.
All that’s left is to sign up, start completing Quests, and monitor the leaderboard.
You have everything you need to play it to the end. And if you have a bit of YNG set aside… You might already have an advantage.
In TheReveal competition, there are two main paths to victory: the Championship and the Tournaments.
Think of the Championship as a marathon: it’s the general leaderboard based on consistency and the total Gems accumulated throughout the entire competition. The Tournaments, on the other hand, are competitive, theme-based sprints held every two weeks, offering access to exclusive prizes through a ticket lottery.
While the leaderboard rewards endurance, Tournaments reward strategy and speed. Crucially, everything resets each time. In this article, we’ll uncover the new Ticket allocation system, how to enter Tournaments, and why every single Gem counts more than ever before.
Tournament Dates: Six Chances to Win
Each Tournament lasts for a fortnight (two weeks). In total, there are six Tournaments:
Tournament 1: 9 December – 23 December 2025
Tournament 2: 23 December – 6 January 2026
Tournament 3: 6 January – 20 January 2026
Tournament 4: 20 January – 3 February 2026
Tournament 5: 3 February – 17 February 2026
Tournament 6: 17 February – 10 March 2026
Each Tournament has its own prize draw with different prizes. All draws will take place collectively after 10 March 2026, in the presence of a notary.
How Do Tickets Work? The “Tiered” System
In The Reveal, the ticket allocation system has been designed to be fairer and more dynamic. The principle is simple: starting is effortless, but reaching the summit requires dedication.
Here is how the Tier System works:
Sprint Start (Tier 1): For your first tickets, you only need 30 Gems! This allows you to jump straight into the competition and rack up your first chances to win very quickly (valid up to 500 accumulated Gems).
Standard Phase (Tier 2): Once you pass the first threshold, the cost stabilises at 100 Gems per ticket (from 501 to 1,500 Gems).
Advanced Phase (Tier 3): If you keep pushing, the game gets tougher. The cost rises to 200 Gems per ticket (from 1,501 to 3,000 Gems).
Elite Phase (Tier 4): For the true “serial accumulators” who surpass 3,000 Gems, each ticket will cost 300 Gems.
This system is designed to give everyone a concrete chance of winning. With the initial cost reduced to 30 Gems, anyone can secure a decent number of tickets with just a few quests. At the same time, heavy hitters will still have more chances, but without monopolising the entire lottery, ensuring a more balanced competition.
Golden Rules for Tickets:
Total Reset: Tickets and Tiers reset at the end of every Tournament. If you finish a Tournament in “Tier 3”, you will start the next Tournament back at “Tier 1” (30 Gems per ticket).
Validity: Tickets are only valid for the prize draw of the specific Tournament in which you earned them.
Probability: The more tickets you hold in a single Tournament, the higher your mathematical probability of being drawn.
To track your progress and see how many Gems you need for your next ticket, check the progress bar in the “Your Tournaments” section of the app.
Timed Quests: Fuel for Your Tickets
Every Tournament is brought to life by timed quests. These quests can be daily or weekly and may change throughout the two weeks.
With the tiered system, completing the early quests is vital: the Gems you earn immediately are “worth more” in terms of tickets than those earned later on!
Warning: Most questsrequire manual claiming. If you forget to confirm them, you won’t receive the Gems, and you’ll miss the chance to get tickets.
YNG Hodler Boost: The Strategic Advantage
Inside the Tournaments section, you’ll also find the YNG Hodler category, designed for those holding the YNG token in their main Wallet on the Young Platform.
Every week, based on the amount of YNG you hold, you automatically receive an extra Gem bonus. These Gems are added to those from quests, allowing you to get extra tickets with no additional effort. It starts at Level 1 with 100 YNG held.
Remember that your level is updated weekly: you can move up (if you buy YNG) or down (if you sell or transfer YNG).
Surprise Prizes: The Reveal
As the name suggests, mystery is part of the game. Each Tournament has a different theme and unique prizes that are revealed only the day before the Tournament starts on our official channels:
Young Platform Instagram Profile
X Profile (formerly Twitter)
Official Blog
Following our social channels is essential to discover in advance whether the week’s theme is the right fit for you (Gaming? Travel? Tech?) and to get ready to sprint out of the gate.
Tournament or Championship? Both.
The Reveal Tournaments and the Championship run in parallel. The Gems you collect have a double value:
They help you climb the general leaderboard of the Championship.
They are converted into tickets for the active Tournament lottery (according to the tiered system).
A completed quest brings you closer to the final leaderboard prizes and the bi-weekly Tournament prizes simultaneously.
