Investment Grants the Company Up to 19.9% Royalty Interest in Alpha Exchange Revenues
TAMPA, Fla., Aug. 28, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Upexi, Inc. (NASDAQ: UPXI) (the "Company" or "Upexi"), a brand owner specializing in the development, manufacturing, and distribution of consumer products with diversification into the cryptocurrency space, today announced its initial strategic investment in Cybersyn Holdings, LLC (“Cybersyn”), owner of Alpha Exchange, a next-generation cryptocurrency trading platform built to serve both new and experienced investors that is expected to launch in the fourth quarter of 2025.
The Alpha Exchange platform combines AI-driven trading insights, real-time analytics, and intuitive tools with institutional-grade security and strict regulatory compliance. Initially focused on emerging and mid-cap tokens on Solana and Base, Alpha Exchange differentiates itself from larger incumbents, targeting underserved market segments while building long-term value through user engagement, education, and community-driven features.
Allan Marshall, Upexi’s Chief Executive Officer, stated, “We are excited to announce Upexi’s investment into Alpha Exchange, a dynamic platform that aligns with our vision of leveraging innovative technologies to drive shareholder value. Through this agreement, Upexi will participate directly in the platform’s growth by earning a royalty interest on future revenues, with the potential to expand that interest as Alpha Exchange reaches key user milestones. This strategic investment provides Upexi with exposure to a unique, high-growth platform and demonstrates our focus on supporting innovative business opportunities with strong potential for long-term success.”
Under the terms of the agreement, Upexi will make an initial investment of $750,000 in Alpha Exchange in exchange for a royalty equal to 14.9% of all future gross revenue generated by the platform. The agreement also provides for two additional investments: a further $250,000 upon completion of the platform and achievement of 10,000 active users, which would increase Upexi’s royalty interest to 19.9% of gross revenue, and an additional $250,000 investment upon the achievement of 25,000 active users. At that stage, Upexi will have the option to either maintain its 19.9% royalty in perpetuity or convert a portion of its interest into a 9.99% equity stake in Alpha Exchange on a fully diluted basis.
