Guide to 'apM Members Diamond Membership' Benefits & Usage for NAWS Holders

NAWS.AI is currently accelerating its technology integration and connection to the real-world economy with our partner, apM Coin, to expand our global ecosystem. Following our previous partnership announcement, we are pleased to provide the practical guide on how to use the 'apM Members Diamond Membership' that many holders have been waiting for.

Our partner, 'apM Group,' has been a leading force in the Korean fashion wholesale market since 1999. Operating three core shopping malls in Dongdaemun—apM, apM Luxe, and apM PLACE—it commands approximately 30% of the market share. It is a massive real-world economic cluster boasting over 1.5 million annual visitors and generating trillions of KRW in foreign currency inflow.

NAWS has combined AI technology with this robust infrastructure. Based on our technical prowess, proven by our selection for AWS and Google Cloud startup programs, we are maximizing the synergy between real-world data and AI. Now, it is time for NAWS holders to enjoy tangible benefits as VIPs of this vast ecosystem: 'apM Members Diamond Member'.

rthermore, GetBlobs—which is recording explosive growth after appointing the friendly and trustworthy Korean Actor Yun Si Yun (recently garnering attention for his special appearance in Taxi Driver 3) as its exclusive model—is also planning to provide additional Diamond benefits for participants of the apM wholesale fashion cluster.

Hello, this is apM Coin.

The Foundation expresses deep regret regarding the decision to terminate transaction support announced by Bithumb today.

Above all, we clarify that the statements in Bithumb’s Investment Warning Designation notice—such as claims that they were "verifying measures for investor protection with the Foundation" and "ensuring investors can trade safely through communication with the Foundation"—are clearly false.

Regarding the issues raised in the warning designation notice, the Foundation has submitted all relevant objective data to clarify our position, including data on over 110,000 real users, a cumulative voucher issuance record of 11.3 billion KRW, and operational achievements of our proprietary mainnet.

apM Coin is not a project without substance. Based on the 40-year history of apM Group, which holds a brand value of approximately 2.53 trillion KRW (about 1.95 billion USD) as evaluated by the Institute for Industrial Policy Studies (IPS), we are a unique real-economy integrated project holding an unrivaled leading position in Korea’s wholesale fashion industry.

Having proven our actual utility and independent ecosystem through numerous crises over the past five years, we will never give up.

We must question whether this decision, which holds innocent holders hostage and causes massive damage, truly aligns with the "investor protection" Bithumb claims. We make it clear that the responsibility for the resulting market confusion lies with the exchange that made this incomprehensible decision.

The Foundation takes the current situation very seriously and will establish and announce future plans as soon as possible.

apM Coin Team

Hello, this is apM Coin.

apM Coin expresses deep regret regarding the decision to terminate transaction support for apM Coin (APM), which was announced by Bithumb on December 19, 2025. We would like to transparently address the unfairness of this decision and share our future plans with our community.

We explicitly state that we were not provided with any specific reasons or additional explanations by Bithumb regarding this termination, other than what was written in the official public notice. During the review period, our representatives received no calls for substantive communication or specific inquiries. Like general investors, we were forced to deduce the reasons solely from the text of the notice and submit vast amounts of explanatory materials based on conjecture. We strongly protest this opaque review method and unilateral notification by Bithumb, and we raise deep questions regarding the procedural legitimacy of this decision.

apM Coin is not a meme coin with an unclear identity or a paper project. Through our submitted materials, we have already proven our verified substance, which is not merely a plan but a reality: over 110,000 real active users, a cumulative issuance of 11.3 billion KRW in vouchers for token holders, over 1.26 million annual records of on-chain NFT-based shuttle bus boardings, and the direct operation of a multi-chain bridge and mainnet over a long period. Bithumb's decision to exclude a project with such a clear real-economy basis and business achievements cannot be interpreted as anything other than a targeted review that runs directly contrary to the justification of investor protection.

From the time of listing until now, we have communicated transparently and continuously with Bithumb regarding major project changes and roadmaps. We also faithfully explained the issues raised through the recent Investment Warning designation notice. Nevertheless, we make it clear that the responsibility for this incomprehensible decision—made without specific reasons while thoroughly ignoring the processes we have shared over a long period—lies entirely with Bithumb, who unilaterally notified us of the termination. We ask that you verify the specific reasons for delisting and the review criteria through Bithumb, the party responsible for this decision.

Apart from the external situation, apM's blockchain business will not stop. We will continue our real-economy-based business, expanding the digitalization of the Dongdaemun market and blockchain membership services centered on the apM Members mobile app. Furthermore, membership benefits for coin holders will be maintained. We are currently drafting a new whitepaper containing this business direction, which will be released through our official website soon.

Additionally, following the announcement of the transaction support termination, there has been a sharp increase in malicious attacks exploiting anxiety, mockery of holders, and attempts at impersonation and phishing. Therefore, to prevent further damage to investors and to deliver only accurate information, the chat function of the official community will be temporarily suspended. Please note that all future official news will be delivered only through the existing announcement channel. Major inquiries regarding services can be made through the respective service inquiry channels, and specific future schedules will be provided via the new whitepaper and the announcement channel.

Thank you.
apM Coin.

ANN | apM: The New Innovation – 2026 Roadmap

Hello, this is apM Coin.

Over the past period, our project has contemplated intensely to prove our intrinsic value and advance to a larger stage amidst a rapidly changing market environment. Today, along with our new whitepaper, we would like to present the completely renewed vision and roadmap of apM.

apM: The New Innovation
We have streamlined our project name from the existing 'apM Coin' to 'apM' and refurbished our official website domain to apm.fashion. This change is intended to more intuitively convey our identity of combining the fashion industry with blockchain technology. The new whitepaper, reflecting this evolved technical architecture and vision, has also been released on our homepage.

2026 Roadmap : Establishing Fashion Tech Standards through AI and ZK Technology
The year 2026 will mark the beginning of apM project's expansion into the global market, restoring technological trust through the establishment of a 'zk-Authenticated Trust Layer' and the completion of 'AI-Powered Innovation.'

Technology : Rebuilding Trust and Security Infrastructure via ZK Technology Adoption
Due to frequent data hacking and security incidents recently, the importance of 'trust' is being emphasized more than ever. Accordingly, we plan to introduce a 'zk-Authenticated Trust Layer' to strengthen data security and integrity to the highest level. This serves as an upper layer replacing the existing permissioned mainnet, utilizing a method that compresses large-scale transactions and anchors the verified results to the L1 network. Through this, we will inherit the robust security of public chains while protecting privacy and dramatically increasing processing speed, thereby providing a flawless platform environment that market participants can use with confidence.

Business : e-Voucher and Stablecoin PoC
On the business front, we are anchoring our strategy on the 'e-Voucher Solution,' which has already been verified through actual use in over 1,000 merchants within Dongdaemun. Not resting on our current achievements, we have completed the architectural design to allow this solution to technologically interface with stablecoin payment systems in the future, keeping pace with rapidly changing global financial trends. Furthermore, we are actively conducting Proof of Concept (PoC) tests with numerous partner companies to enhance technical perfection. This process is being conducted within the scope of strictly monitoring and complying with changing laws and regulations related to virtual assets. We are making full preparations so that it can immediately function as a service expansion and a future growth engine at the point when relevant regulations permit.

Service : Strengthening User Lock-in through Market-Specific AI Solution
Expansion In terms of service, beyond the currently live 'AI Trend Search,' we are actively verifying and testing multiple new AI-based services internally. Going beyond simply improving existing functions, we are focusing on developing an 'apM-specialized MCP (Model-Context Protocol)' that perfectly understands and reflects the distinct characteristics of the fashion wholesale market. Through this, we are making company-wide efforts to differentiate the user experience by providing market-specific solutions that are difficult to implement with general AI models, ultimately creating a lock-in effect that strongly retains users within the platform by offering irreplaceable utility.

Listing & Unlock: Strategic Resource Allocation for Phased Relisting and Entry into Major Exchanges
Our immediate priority is to swiftly complete listings on multiple exchanges to secure liquidity, and leveraging this foundation, achieve progressive listings on major domestic and global exchanges in the long term. From this moment, we humbly accept Bithumb's decision to terminate transaction support, and will immediately initiate concrete negotiations regarding listing schedules and conditions with multiple exchanges. We will dedicate all our efforts to delivering news of phased listings by February at the latest.

As you are aware, successful listings require meeting the rigorous standards set by exchanges. To this end, we have inevitably adjusted our existing lock-up policy to secure the necessary resources required by exchanges, including initial token provision, liquidity supply, marketing allocation, and mandatory long-term security deposits. Specifically, as of January 1, 2026, we have unlocked the remaining 'User Reward' reserves (199,375,000 APM) and 'Global Expansion' reserves (69,162,180 APM), thereby simultaneously securing the vital resources needed for the listing race and our future growth engines.


Conclusion
We have realigned existing rules with a desperate resolve, moving beyond survival to a new leap forward. The roadmap and token economy reorganization announced today are not simple plans, but realistic and concrete execution measures to immediately satisfy the requirements of exchanges with whom we are currently in close negotiation and to complete the listing race starting in the first quarter.

Strategically utilizing the secured base of over 1,000 merchants and our verified technological capabilities, we will put the project back on the normal track along with news of multiple listings in the near future.

Thank you.

ANN | Notice on Foundation Merger and Buyback Status

Hello, this is apM team.

We would like to provide an update regarding the recent project status and changes in the foundation’s operational structure.

Foundation Consolidation
To ensure efficient project management and seamless business expansion, our foundation entities have been consolidated.
While the existing apM foundation (DA Network) and the NAWS foundation (FINNACLE INC.) had already been integrated operationally during the merger process, as of January 2026, a legally binding agreement was executed. Consequently, the apM Project has been fully integrated and transferred under FINNACLE INC.

This is a procedural step for streamlined project management; token holders are not required to take any action. We anticipate that this consolidated foundation will allow for faster progress in exchange listings and other key developments. We are committed to sharing positive updates with you in stages shortly.


Buyback & Hold
In addition to the buyback using operating profits announced last June, the foundation has consistently strived to enhance project value.
Finnacle Inc. (the integrated foundation for NAWS and apM) maintains the firm belief that "the current market price does not adequately reflect the unique utility value apM holds within its massive market." Driven by a commitment to responsible management, we have been continuously accumulating tokens with the intent to hold these friendly volumes long-term until their true value is recognized.

As a result, the volume directly purchased and held long-term by the foundation and its strategic partners currently totals 631,721,092 apM. Including this amount, we are stably managing approximately 50% of the total issuance. We ask for your continued trust in the foundation’s ethical and legal operational direction.


Warning to Malicious Traders
During the recent process of investment warning designation and trading termination on the Bithumb exchange, the foundation became acutely aware of the activities of specific groups seeking only short-term arbitrage. These entities exhibited "pump and dump" patterns—inducing artificial volatility (so-called "caution beams")—thereby targeting general holders.

The project will continue to pursue new listings and ecosystem expansion. However, as malicious actors may attempt to target individual investors through artificial price fluctuations during this process, we strongly urge holders to exercise extreme caution regarding such volatility to avoid potential losses.

The foundation will strive for even greater transparency and accountability under this integrated system. We will do our utmost to ensure the apM ecosystem receives its proper valuation.

Thank you.

ANN | New Listing Announcement: LBank

Hello, this is the apM Team.

Following our 2026 roadmap, we are pleased to share the first milestone of our strategic re-listing and global ecosystem expansion. apM (APM) will be listed on the LBank exchange.

LBank Listing and Trading Support
- Trading Pair: APM/USDT
- Trading Starts: January 29, 2026, 09:00 (UTC)
- Announcement Link: [https://www.lbank.com/support/articles/2016025139799392256]


Rationale for Selecting LBank
The decision to list on LBank was made with the utmost priority on the convenience of asset migration for our holders who have been using domestic exchanges. LBank has completed the Travel Rule solution integration with Bithumb.

This integration allows users who need to move their assets following the termination of trading support on Bithumb to transfer their assets directly to LBank. This ensures a seamless transition within a familiar environment without the need to create or utilize separate personal wallets.


Contract Address and Scam Prevention
Recently, there has been an increase in scam activities impersonating the project. To protect your assets, please verify the official contract address and network information below.

- Network: Ethereum (ERC-20)
- Contract Address: 0xc8c424b91d8ce0137bab4b832b7f7d154156ba6c

Please note that the casing of our project name, apM, may be displayed differently depending on the wallet service or platform you use. This is simply a system-level difference. As long as the contract address and the network (Ethereum) match the information above, it is the official token. We urge you to double-check the address during deposits and withdrawals to prevent any loss of assets.

Future Plans
Following the integration into FINNACLE INC., the foundation is pursuing listing initiatives more efficiently and rapidly. This LBank listing marks the beginning of our race to achieve the 2026 roadmap. We will continue to share updates regarding other exchanges currently under discussion as soon as preparations are finalized.

Thank you.

ANN | Implementation of Strategic Additional Buyback and Status Update on Circulating Supply Stabilization

Hello, this is the apM team.

While our project has achieved significant milestones in both business and on-chain sectors — including recent listings on global exchanges like LBank, three major DEXs, and various service updates — we are deeply aware that the intrinsic value of the project is being distorted by abnormal market volatility. Consequently, the Foundation and its strategic partners have executed an additional buyback to stabilize the market and improve the health of the circulating environment. We hereby announce the status of our circulating supply management as follows:

1. Details of the Additional Buyback
Strategic partners who share apM’s vision have completed an additional buyback of 86,479,668 APM from the current circulating supply. These tokens are held for the purpose of sustainable ecosystem growth rather than short-term profit and will be managed under a strict long-term holding principle.

2. Current Status of Circulating Supply Management
The total volume currently secured and managed by the Foundation and its strategic partners is approximately 990,769,052 APM, which accounts for roughly 55% of the total supply. We confirm that more than half of the total supply is being stably held and managed by the Foundation and its partners.

3. Operational Policy and Future Plans
The Foundation operates the project in the most transparent and responsible manner within legal frameworks. We remain committed to the project’s advancement, undeterred by temporary market undervaluation.
We sincerely appreciate the continued support of our community members who believe in and support the intrinsic value of apM.

Best regards,
The apM Team

ANN | 2026 Q1 Roadmap Implementation Status: Building Stablecoin Infrastructure via SentBe Partnership

Hello, this is the apM team.

To follow through on the objectives mentioned in our previous roadmap regarding the restoration of trust and global market expansion, the apM team has been working tirelessly throughout the first quarter of 2026. Today, we are pleased to share a significant milestone regarding a key global payment infrastructure partnership and our Q1 business progress.

Business: Supply Agreement for e-Vouchers and Stablecoin Infrastructure with SentBe
Following our previous announcement regarding the integration of the apM e-Voucher solution with stablecoin payment systems, we have reached a practical execution stage. We have signed an e-Voucher supply agreement with SentBe, a global fintech company holding a Major Payment Institution (MPI) license in Singapore.

Through this collaboration, we aim to utilize SentBe’s off-ramp network to enable overseas buyers to purchase apM e-Vouchers using stablecoins. This is expected to enhance user utility by significantly reducing processing times and transaction costs compared to traditional remittance methods.

We are currently working closely to complete a Proof of Concept (PoC) for overseas buyers within Q1 2026, with plans to sequentially expand the service scope based on the results.

Service: Establishing the apM 72P (Protocol Reserve) and Executing the Long-term Roadmap Furthermore, in preparation for the potential implementation of an 'apM Direct Payment System,' we are developing the ‘apM 72P’ framework. This system involves allocating a portion of protocol fees as a technical reserve by converting them into the native token (APM).

This is a technical preparatory process aimed at establishing the most secure and transparent blockchain-based payment case within the global fashion distribution industry, while strictly adhering to evolving regulatory environments.

Press Release Information
For more details on this partnership, please refer to the official article below.
