Pilot combines Nomyx tokenization infrastructure with ResMac-originated mortgage loans; SEC issues new interpretation on digital-asset securities framework

IRVINE, Calif., March 18, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- via IBN -- ECGI Holdings, Inc. (OTC:ECGI) is advancing a $10 million mortgage tokenization pilot using loans originated by ResMac, a wholly owned subsidiary of RezyFi, with Nomyx Technology Labs providing tokenization infrastructure.

As part of the current pilot, ECGI is evaluating infrastructure designed to:

• Represent mortgage pool interests as digital tokens through Nomyx infrastructure
• Validate end-to-end operational readiness for broader commercial rollout
• Automate compliance verification and investor reporting across the mortgage lifecycle
• Enable programmable distribution and reporting workflows for mortgage pool cash flows

On March 17, 2026, the SEC issued an interpretation clarifying how federal securities laws apply to certain crypto assets and related transactions. ECGI believes the interpretation may help reduce uncertainty for tokenized financial infrastructure in mortgage finance and represents a constructive market-structure development for companies building digital-asset systems around real financial assets.

Jamie Steigerwald, President of ECGI Holdings, said, "We believe this matters because ECGI already has a pilot underway with operating parties in place, and added clarity can help support the path toward broader commercialization."

Steigerwald added, "Mortgage finance is a $2.2 trillion origination market in 2026, according to the Mortgage Bankers Association. We believe tokenized infrastructure can improve how mortgage interests are tracked, reported, and transferred, and our pilot is designed to validate that thesis. Our focus is to keep building responsibly and move toward broader commercial readiness."

ECGI plans to continue advancing the RezyFi mortgage tokenization pilot and evaluate next steps toward broader commercialization, subject to pilot results, legal requirements, and market conditions.

The company emphasized that the SEC's action does not represent an endorsement of ECGI, RezyFi, ResMac, Nomyx, or the company's platform, and does not approve any specific product, launch, or transaction. The RezyFi acquisition remains subject to a binding letter of intent and execution of a definitive agreement.
