The global technology and value-internet industry has reached a new milestone. The Betterment Asset Management Foundation (“Betterment Foundation”), a Wall Street institution deeply engaged in early-stage technological innovation, has officially launched its strategic incubation project — the next-generation cross-chain payment infrastructure MPC (Multi-Protocol Connect), aiming to reshape global value circulation and drive the digital economy into a new era of high efficiency, low cost, and worldwide interoperability.

Betterment Foundation is a leading institution deeply rooted in early-stage technology innovation, with a vision of building the next-generation open internet and global economic system. The Foundation has long focused on cutting-edge fields such as blockchain, Web3, AI, decentralized infrastructure, and new financial networks.

The Foundation’s chairman William stated:

“In the next decade, the core competitiveness of global business will no longer be the scale of capital, but the efficiency of value circulation. MPC will become the underlying highway of the next-generation value internet.”

Global payment challenges intensify, positioning MPC as the industry’s anticipated infrastructure base

At present, cross-border and on-chain payments still face systemic bottlenecks:

– Cross-chain incompatibility makes it difficult for assets to circulate freely;

– High cross-border fees restrict global trade and personal payments;

– High integration costs and technical barriers limit Web3 merchant adoption;

– Enterprise blockchain integration remains complex, hindering Web2–Web3 business convergence.

Against the backdrop of accelerating globalization and digitalization, the market urgently expects a new generation of infrastructure capable of breaking the four major pain points of interoperability, cost, security, and accessibility.

The release of MPC is regarded as an important milestone in breaking the barriers between on-chain and off-chain systems.

MPC: A high-performance infrastructure built for global value circulation

Leveraging the Foundation’s technical resources and ecosystem layout, MPC integrates self-developed Multi-Party Computation (MPC) architecture, multi-chain interoperability protocols, and a commercial-grade settlement network to realize true global value interconnectivity.

Three Core Capabilities:

– High-speed transaction performance: second-level confirmation supporting enterprise-level throughput;

– Seamless cross-chain interoperability: no complex bridging required; assets on any chain can be used directly for payment and settlement;

– Extreme cost reduction: technical optimization significantly reduces cross-border, cross-chain, and merchant-side payment costs.

The MPC technical lead stated:

“MPC enables cross-chain, cross-border, and cross-ecosystem value circulation to become as simple as sending a message. This is not just a technological breakthrough — it is a reconstruction of commercial infrastructure.”

Betterment Foundation: Deep participation in building a commercial-grade global value network

As the core incubator of MPC, Betterment Foundation follows a research-driven, long-term value empowerment philosophy and provides full-chain strategic support, including:

1. Global resources and ecosystem enablement

Connecting ecosystems across North America, Asia, and Europe to promote MPC adoption in e-commerce, digital entertainment, cross-border trade, and payment scenarios.

2. Technical and economic model guidance

Experts in cryptography, blockchain engineering, tokenomics, AI, and network effect research participate in MPC’s underlying architecture and long-term sustainable economic system design.

3. Strategic and risk-management support

Providing global market strategy, compliance path planning, and cyclical risk-management frameworks.

Chairman William emphasized:

“We are not merely investors — we are builders of the value-internet infrastructure.”

Future ecosystem blueprint: Building a global value high-speed network

Centered on the payment mainnet + cross-chain protocol + merchant system, MPC has outlined a comprehensive ecosystem plan, including:

– Global acquiring and direct cross-border payments

– On-chain clearing and asset custody

– Enterprise-level cross-border payroll and settlement

– Merchant incentive and loyalty systems

– Community economic growth mechanisms

– AI-automated payments and intelligent instruction systems

Each scenario will push MPC toward becoming the high-speed channel for global commerce.

MPC Token: The core engine of ecosystem growth

The MPC ecosystem token MPC Token is officially released with a total supply of 210 million.

The token will be used for:

– Network fees and cross-chain settlement

– Merchant deductions and enterprise-level access

– Node participation and governance

– Global partner and ecosystem incentives

– Community growth and user rewards

Real payment scenarios will continuously drive the network’s value cycle and support long-term ecosystem growth.

Toward a new era of free global value circulation

As the global digital economy accelerates, payments are entering a decisive era of transformation.

The value-circulation system jointly built by Betterment Foundation and MPC will become a powerful engine driving global commerce toward greater speed, lower cost, and higher openness.

MPC — enabling value to move across borders and ushering in a truly free era of payments.
