RYO Digital and GRNX Global Partner to Revolutionize Global Grain Trade with Blockchain Innovation

Press Release

Tokyo, May 6, 2025 – RYO Digital and GRNX Global have officially entered into a working agreement to redefine the global grain trading industry through blockchain technology. This strategic collaboration brings together RYO Digital’s next-generation digital payment ecosystem and GRNX Global’s GrainX Protocol grain tokenization platform, creating unparalleled efficiency, transparency, and accessibility in global commodity trading.

Transforming Global Grain Trading

The $1.6 trillion global agricultural commodities market has long been plagued by inefficiencies, slow transactions, and outdated financial systems. RYO Digital and GRNX Global are changing that by bringing decentralization, security, and frictionless payments to international grain trade.

Through this collaboration:

• RYO Digital will serve as a trusted payment solution, offering lower costs, faster settlement, and enhanced security compared to traditional banking mechanisms.
• GrainX Global will facilitate a seamless, traceable, and smart-contract-driven marketplace for Canadian grain exports, particularly to Japan’s multi-billion-dollar beer brewing industry.
• GrainX Protocol will provide new financial tools to facilitate faster farmer payments and lower cost grain buyer inventory lending, which will strengthen the agriculture financial ecosystem.
• Blockchain-backed lending pools will revolutionize trade finance, ensuring liquidity and reduced risk for producers, buyers, and traders alike.

A Groundbreaking Synergy

This alliance represents a powerful integration between digital assets and real-world commerce. RYO Digital, a project built from Japan, and recognized for its compliance with Japan’s stringent regulations, provides a stable and secure means for commodity transactions, eliminating inefficiencies associated with fiat-based trade. Meanwhile, GRNX Global’s platform enables real-time settlement, automated contract execution, and verifiable supply chain transparency for grain producers and exporters.

Disrupting Japan’s Agricultural Supply Chain

Japan’s agricultural and brewing industries rely heavily on high-quality Canadian grain. Through this partnership:

• RYO Digital will enable Japanese buyers, including major brewing companies, to seamlessly purchase Canadian grain with instant, low-cost blockchain transactions.
• GRNX Global will ensure full traceability, smart contract settlements, and improved financial instruments to modernize international trade.
• The collaboration will support Japan’s push for blockchain adoption, ensuring compliance with financial regulations.
