Safello teams up with Zumo to set the standard for sustainability in Sweden’s crypto sector

Published

on

Swedish cryptocurrency exchange Safello has entered into a strategic partnership with Zumo to comply with sustainability disclosures under MiCAR.

STOCKHOLM and EDINBURGH, Scotland, March 14, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — Safello, the leading cryptocurrency exchange in the Nordics, has entered into an agreement with Zumo, a B2B digital assets platform, to facilitate sustainability disclosure requirements under MiCAR.

Through this collaboration, Safello will leverage Zumo’s expertise in carbon calculations and crypto sustainability impact to ensure accurate and transparent sustainability disclosures. This initiative accommodates the requirements in the European Union’s (EU’s) Markets in Crypto-Assets (MiCA) regulation, which through Article 66 mandates crypto asset service providers (CASPs) active in the EU to display sustainability disclosures on their websites on the environmental impact of the digital assets in relation to which the CASPs offer services.

In implementing MiCAR, the Swedish Financial Supervisory Authority (FSA) has stipulated a nine-month transition period during which it will grandfather the CASP registrations that were granted before MiCAR came into force. Therefore, Swedish CASPs must obtain their MiCA license by 30 September 2025.

“Compliance is at the core of our business. Partnering with Zumo is one of the steps we are taking to meet MiCA’s sustainability disclosure requirements and ensure we provide accurate data to our customers,” says Tara Abdi, Chief Compliance Officer at Safello.

“Safello is a market leader in the Nordics so we’re delighted the team has chosen to partner with Zumo to help meet new regulatory requirements,” adds Nick Jones, Founder and CEO, Zumo.

“Our award-winning Oxygen product was introduced to help CASPs better align their digital asset activities with net zero principles and adopt more sustainable practices. We’re committed to supporting CASPs at every stage of their sustainability journey, and complying to the MiCAR sustainability requirements is a critical first step – By championing actionable steps, and providing new, accessible solutions, we’re supporting the transition towards a more transparent, sustainable, and compliant crypto industry.”

As part of the agreement, Safello will now explore Zumo’s Oxygen solution suite, reinforcing its commitment to both regulatory adherence and sustainability within the crypto industry.

To further engage and support its growing community, Elegoo has also launched a worldwide brand ambassador program, uniting passionate creators to inspire and empower fellow makers.

Empower: empowering creators and makers worldwide

Starting March 16, Elegoo will launch My ELEGOOD Moment, a community-driven initiative inviting users to share their most memorable experiences with Elegoo. Whether it’s an inspiring project, a game-changing 3D print, or a story of how Elegoo made life better, these moments will be highlighted across social media. Users whose stories are featured will have a chance to win flagship printers like the Centauri Carbon and Saturn 4 Ultra 16K, along with other exclusive rewards. Additionally, a community-focused design contest is coming soon, with full details to be announced in the coming weeks.

Next: together, on the journey to the next chapter

At RAPID + TCT this April, Elegoo will debut its latest 3D printer, Jupiter 2, alongside the Centauri Carbon and other new offerings. And this is just the beginning; more exciting products and events are set to launch later this year. As Elegoo enters its next decade, it remains committed to driving innovation, empowering its global community, and exploring the future of 3D printing.

“When we started, we had a bold vision – to create the future with smart manufacturing. What began as an idea has transformed into a thriving company, empowering creators and enhancing personalized experiences for countless individuals,” says Chris Hong, Founder and CEO of Elegoo. “The 3D printing industry is evolving faster than ever, and we believe that continuously improving our products based on community feedback reflects the attitude a company should have toward innovation. Together, we will keep innovating, dreaming big, and shaping the future of smart manufacturing for the next decade and beyond.”

Varda Announces Third Mission Launch, the Company’s Second Launch this Year

Varda aims to have a monthly launch and reentry cadence, developing a foundation layer for a thriving orbital economy

EL SEGUNDO, Calif., March 15, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — Varda Space Industries, Inc., a microgravity-enabled life sciences and reentry company, today announced the successful launch of its third orbital processing and reentry capsule, W-3, just 15 days after the reentry of the company’s second mission, which landed in Australia on Feb. 27, 2025.

The W-3 vehicle, supported by a Rocket Lab-developed Pioneer satellite like its predecessors, lifted off aboard the Transporter-13 rideshare mission with SpaceX from Vandenberg Space Force Base in California. 

W-3’s payload is an advanced navigation system called an Inertial Measurement Unit (IMU) developed by the US Air Force and Innovative Scientific Solutions Incorporated (ISSI). This payload will be tested at reentry speeds it was designed to withstand but has never encountered before.

IMUs are electronics that can measure an object’s motion, orientation, and velocity. For example, everything from cars to wearable fitness trackers have similar devices to tell their computer the orientation and location without the aid of an external signal like a GPS, though commercial IMUs are notoriously inaccurate at high-speed conditions. Varda’s capsule can help test these devices for our government and commercial partners to advance research into high-hypersonic technologies.

“The need for robust, plug-and-play IMU technology is a growing capability area that will significantly advance the current state-of-the-art for domain awareness and control of future systems,” said Dr. Steve NeVille, senior scientist at ISSI. “The W-3 reentry flight test with Varda provides an exciting and unique proto-qualification platform to rapidly advance our IMU technology readiness level in a relevant reentry environment, which is the pinnacle of early development testing.”

Varda’s capsule reenters the Earth’s atmosphere at speeds exceeding Mach 25, a unique environment that offers researchers a chance to gather data for multiple applications, expanding the possibilities for the orbital economy and supporting US national security interests in low Earth orbit.

“Varda’s commercial dual-use reentry capability is a game-changer for enabling rapid technology maturation for future systems,” said Technical Lead for AFRL’s Prometheus reentry testbed program, Dr. Erin Vaughan. “Affordable, frequent reentry flight test opportunities support S&T development for early risk reduction studies, reducing cost and schedule for novel technologies.”

The W-3 capsule’s payload is funded through the Prometheus program, an initiative from AFRL in partnership with Varda. The program addresses a national security need to accelerate testing and modernization of high-hypersonic systems and reentry technologies through a low-cost, high-cadence commercial flight testbed.

“High-cadence, routine operations is our goal. We are working to make reentry as commonplace as launch,” said Varda Vice President for Mission Management, Brandi Sippel. “We are looking forward to the day when sending capsules into orbit and back to Earth is seen as routine.”

W-3 will spend a few weeks on orbit before reentering and landing safely at the Koonibba Test Range in South Australia, operated by Southern Launch. Varda’s second capsule, W-2, was Australia’s first-ever commercial land reentry.

Distribution Unlimited; Approved for Public Release. Public Affairs Release # AFRL-2025-1094
