Key Terms

self-custodial, digital assets, blockchain, fdic insured
4 terms
self-custodial technical
"Arca Wallet, a self-custodial mobile dollar wallet that enables anyone, anywhere..."
Self-custodial describes a setup where an individual or entity holds and controls their own assets or credentials directly, rather than trusting a third party to store them. For investors, it means you have full control and responsibility—like holding the only key to a safe: greater autonomy and potentially lower counterparty risk, but also greater responsibility for secure storage, loss recovery, and personal security practices.
digital assets technical
"users retain direct and exclusive control over their digital assets at all times."
Digital assets are electronic files or representations of value stored electronically, such as cryptocurrencies, digital tokens, or digital art. They matter to investors because they can be bought, sold, and used for transactions much like physical assets, but exist entirely in digital form, offering new opportunities for investment and financial innovation.
View in glossary
blockchain technical
"Constellation Network, a blockchain and data infrastructure company, today announced..."
A blockchain is a digital record-keeping system that securely stores information across many computers, making it difficult to alter or tamper with. Think of it like a shared, unchangeable ledger that everyone can see and verify, ensuring transparency and trust. For investors, this technology offers a way to securely track transactions and assets without relying on a central authority, potentially reducing costs and increasing security.
View in glossary
fdic insured regulatory
"SimpleFi is not a savings account and is not FDIC insured."
A U.S. government insurance program that protects money held in eligible bank and savings accounts up to a set limit if the bank fails. It matters to investors because it acts like a safety net for cash — reducing the risk of losing deposits and helping decide where to park short‑term funds — but it does not cover stocks, bonds, mutual funds, or cryptocurrencies.

New Mobile Wallet Combines Digital Dollar Management, Streamlined Identity Verification and an Integrated App Marketplace Designed to Expand Access to Global Payments

DALLAS, TX / ACCESS Newswire / June 2, 2026 / AIAI Holdings Corporation (NASDAQ:AIAI) ("Ai2" or the "Company"), an AI-enabled diversified holding company utilizing Transformational AI to enhance portfolio performance, along with its subsidiary portfolio company Constellation Network, a blockchain and data infrastructure company, today announced the public launch of Arca Wallet, a self-custodial mobile dollar wallet that enables anyone, anywhere, to hold, send, and manage digital dollars directly from their smartphone. Arca Wallet is available for download on the App Store and Google Play.

Arca Wallet is designed to address a large and evolving global payments market by combining self-custody, digital dollar transfers, streamlined identity verification, and an integrated application marketplace in a single mobile experience. The product reflects Ai2's broader strategy of supporting portfolio companies that apply advanced technology to clear commercial use cases with the potential to create scalable, transaction-driven revenue opportunities.

"At the heart of Constellation's design genius is the application of Transformational AI to create products adaptable to a multitude of use cases. Arca Wallet exemplifies the technology we are building at AIAI - products that create real, measurable value for people," said Todd Furniss, CEO and co-founder of AIAI Holdings Corporation. "Giving users with a smartphone the ability to hold and send currency without a bank account is exactly the kind of product we want in this portfolio. Just as importantly, Arca's identity verification and marketplace architecture create a foundation that can extend into a much broader range of uses and a much broader range of partner-enabled applications over time, expanding the wallet from a payments tool into a digital Swiss army knife."

"We built Arca around one principle: Your wallet and everything in it belongs to you," said Ben Jorgensen, CEO of Constellation Network. "That means you hold your own keys, no institution can touch your funds, and you pay a fraction of what conventional services charge to send money internationally. Arca provides banking features without having a bank. The marketplace takes that further and extends that utility by allowing users to complete identity verification once and then access a growing network of uses and approved partner applications from the same wallet. We built it for the world as it actually exists today."

Arca Wallet is built on a self-custodial model, meaning users retain direct and exclusive control over their digital assets at all times. No institution, including Arca itself, holds, manages or has the technical ability to restrict access to user funds. Users authenticate through email or social login and complete setup in approximately 30 seconds, without a bank account, minimum balance or prior knowledge of digital asset infrastructure. The wallet supports USDC (USD Coin) and USDT (Tether), U.S. dollar-denominated digital currencies issued and redeemable 1:1 for U.S. dollars by regulated third parties. Arca's underlying technology covers network transaction costs on behalf of users, so senders pay only Arca's disclosed flat fee.

Beyond core dollar management, Arca Wallet includes an integrated in-app marketplace through which users gain access to a curated network of approved third-party partners and applications. Identity verification is completed once; users then interact with the full ecosystem of Arca-supported services without repeated onboarding. Over time, as partner integrations are developed, Arca's verification architecture is designed to support broader use cases where trusted user information may be required, such as secure identity verification for travel or access programs, healthcare registration, insurance enrollment and policy updates, government benefits registration, employee onboarding, mortgage and loan applications, tax-related filing processes, and other digital forms or app-based registration workflows.

The marketplace is designed to expand the utility of the wallet over time and creates a diversified, transaction-driven revenue stream for the Company through fees assessed on partner-enabled commerce.

Cross-border payments represented approximately $179 trillion in global transaction flows in 2024, according to the McKinsey Global Payments Map. A significant portion of lower-value cross-border activity continues to rely on legacy financial infrastructure, creating demand for faster, more accessible, and more cost-efficient alternatives. Arca addresses this opportunity by enabling international transfers that settle in seconds, compared to the one-to-five business days typical of conventional wire transfers, at a flat 0.5% fee versus a global average remittance cost of approximately 6.36%, according to the World Bank's Remittance Prices Worldwide data. Account creation requires no bank account, no minimum balance, and no paperwork, making the product accessible to populations historically excluded from digital financial services.

Arca users may also opt into SimpleFi, a dollar savings product that allows users to put their dollars to work with no lock-up period and no minimum balance. Returns through SimpleFi are variable and not guaranteed. SimpleFi is not a savings account and is not FDIC insured. Past performance does not guarantee future results. Arca does not provide investment, financial or tax advice.

Arca is not a bank. Digital dollars held in Arca are not bank deposits, are not FDIC insured, and are not guaranteed by any government entity. Availability of Arca Wallet, SimpleFi, and marketplace services may be subject to jurisdictional restrictions, eligibility requirements, and applicable law.
