VANCOUVER, BC, Dec. 30, 2025 /CNW/ - Intellistake Technologies Corp. (CSE: ISTK) (OTCQB: ISTKF) (FSE: E41) ("Intellistake" or the "Company") today provided a year-end review outlining the milestones achieved since its change of business announced on June 5th 2025, marking its first calendar year end operating as a publicly listed company focused on decentralized artificial intelligence and blockchain infrastructure.

Since launching mid-year, Intellistake focused on establishing operational and strategic foundations. The Company completed its change of business in early July 2025, began trading on the Canadian Securities Exchange under the ticker ISTK, and subsequently obtained an OTCQB quotation to broaden market accessibility. In September 2025, Intellistake was also added to the CSE 25 Index, the flagship benchmark of the Canadian Securities Exchange, reflecting its inclusion among the 25 largest companies on the exchange by market capitalization.

During the second half of 2025, Intellistake completed multiple capital raises, including an oversubscribed private placement totalling approximately C$10 million, supporting execution across corporate operations, infrastructure deployment, strategic investments, and platform development.

This activity took place during a year in which artificial intelligence moved from experimentation into enterprise-wide integration. According to data from McKinsey 2025 global survey, nearly nine out of ten organizations now report regular use of AI in at least one business function,² highlighting how widely AI has moved into enterprise operations; materially increasing demand on underlying compute, data, and network infrastructure.

Operationally, Intellistake deployed secure wallet and validator infrastructure on the Fetch.ai blockchain, a core network within the Artificial Superintelligence Alliance, one of the largest decentralized AI digital asset ecosystems by market capitalization. During 2025, the Company expanded its validator operations to approximately 1.97 million FET, including both Company-owned tokens and third-party delegation. The validator has operated with continuous uptime since activation, with performance and staking activity publicly verifiable via the Fetch.ai Mintscan Explorer, confirming active third-party participation and operational reliability within the ASI ecosystem.

In parallel with its infrastructure build-out, Intellistake initiated development of IntelliScope, an enterprise-focused AI agent suite designed to help organizations access, interpret, and act on complex data through structured, transparent workflows. During 2025, the Company progressed IntelliScope into closed beta testing, with PowerBank Corporation. (NASDAQ: SUUN) participating as an enterprise beta partner to support real-world testing and feedback. The initial IntelliScope agent is being developed for the energy sector, with planned capabilities including data analysis, regulatory monitoring, and intelligence summarization, while maintaining traceability and transparency through decentralized AI infrastructure.

Strategic investment activity formed another pillar of execution during the year. In December 2025, Intellistake completed a US$500,000 strategic investment in Orbit AI following the successful deployment and operation of Genesis-1, Orbit AI's first satellite running artificial intelligence workloads directly in low Earth orbit. Orbit AI has indicated that a second orbital launch is targeted for Q1 2026.

The investment was made during a period of accelerating AI infrastructure spend. According to reports, investment in data centers accounted for nearly all U.S. GDP growth in the first half of 2025, with growth estimated at just 0.1% excluding data center investment.³ Against this backdrop, major technology and aerospace companies have begun exploring alternative compute environments beyond terrestrial data centers. Against this backdrop, leading technology and aerospace participants have begun exploring alternative compute environments beyond traditional terrestrial data centers. Industry discussions have increasingly focused on distributed and non-terrestrial infrastructure models, including the potential role of space-based systems, as power, cooling, and geographic constraints on Earth-based data centers intensify.^4,5,6

Alongside infrastructure deployment and investment activity, Intellistake expanded its advisory group during 2025 to reflect the convergence of AI research, blockchain infrastructure, and institutional capital. Appointments included senior figures across decentralized AI, blockchain ecosystems, and traditional finance, notably Dr. Ben Goertzel, widely recognized as the 'father of Artificial General Intelligence.'⁷

Intellistake Technologies Corp. has also signed a definitive agreement to acquire Premier AI–Web3 Venture Accelerator Singularity Venture Hub ("SVH"), a strategic milestone announced ahead of year-end. The acquisition is expected to expand the Company's capabilities across venture acceleration, ecosystem development, and AI-Web3 infrastructure engagement entering 2026.

Jason Dussault, Chief Executive Officer of Intellistake, commented:

"Launching Intellistake in 2025 allowed us to focus on building the right foundations. Since June, we've completed financings, deployed infrastructure, made targeted strategic investments, and assembled an advisory group aligned with where AI infrastructure is being built today. We're pleased with what has been achieved in a short period of time, and the groundwork laid this year positions the Company well as we move into 2026."

Gregory Cowles, Chief Strategy Officer, added:

"2025 was about execution and alignment across the AI infrastructure stack. When large technology leaders are investing heavily in compute, data centers, and alternative infrastructure models, it reinforces where the industry is heading. Intellistake spent the year moving from concept to active participation across infrastructure and development, and with those foundations in place, the focus entering 2026 is on expanding and integrating what has already been established."

With its infrastructure, strategic relationships, and ecosystem access established during 2025, Intellistake enters 2026 focused on further development and planned commercialization to Intelliscope, further evaluation of Tokenization and bringing Assets on-chain, technology infrastructure services to terrestrial and in-orbit compute and blockchains, expanding validator operations, AI platform development, and strategic initiatives announced to date.
