A seasoned executive specializing in building and scaling ventures in Web3, decentralized finance ("DeFi"), and artificial intelligence ("AI") sectors, Spanò will provide strategic operational guidance to support the Company's growth as a technology company focused on decentralized AI and digital currencies.

His proven track record includes his previous role as Vice President of Operations at SingularityDAO Labs, where he played a pivotal role in scaling the organization and leading spin-off acceleration strategies. His operational excellence contributed to projects that collectively reached a fully diluted valuation of over $1.5 billion USD and secured more than $20 million USD in early-stage funding—demonstrating his ability to execute at scale in the rapidly evolving digital asset ecosystem.

Their proactive approach to infrastructure, compliance, and scalability reflects a clear vision for long-term success at the intersection of decentralized finance and AI. By prioritizing secure systems, regulatory alignment, and future-ready architecture from the outset, Intellistake is positioning itself as a trusted and resilient player capable of supporting both institutional partners and innovative builders in this rapidly evolving space."
