CULVER CITY, Calif., July 22, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Snail, Inc. (Nasdaq: SNAL) (“Snail Games” or the “Company”), a leading global independent developer and publisher of interactive digital entertainment, today provided an update on its recently announced stablecoin initiative, establishing Snail Coins LLC, a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, to serve as the dedicated entity responsible for the issuance, management, and operations of its proprietary USD-backed stablecoin project and other broader digital asset management initiatives.
This move marks a milestone in the Company’s broader stablecoin initiative and broader digital asset management strategy, underscoring the Company’s plans to build a secure, scalable, and transparent digital asset ecosystem.
The stablecoin project is aimed at delivering a secure, regulated, and scalable solution that addresses current market gaps in digital payments and on-chain financial infrastructure. The recent signing of the GENIUS (Guiding and Establishing National Innovation for U.S. Stablecoins) Act into law — which establishes a federal regulatory framework for USD-backed stablecoins — creates a more uniform regulatory structure for stablecoin and has added momentum to the Company’s exploration of a proprietary stablecoin initiative. The Company believes this new regulatory development will enhance market trust, attract institutional interest, and accelerate the broader adoption of compliant digital financial solutions.
“With the GENIUS Act signed into law, we believe the regulatory landscape is beginning to align with the pace of innovation in digital finance,” said Snail, Inc. co-CEO Hai Shi. “The timing of this development couldn’t be more aligned with our own efforts, as we now establish a dedicated subsidiary for our stablecoin and our broader digital asset management initiatives. We view the formation of Snail Coins LLC as more than a corporate structuring move – it’s the beginning of a strategic commitment to the integrity, success, and vision of the project.”
