As part of its expansion efforts, Coins.ph will leverage blockchain, DeFi, and Web3 technologies to enhance cross-border payments and promote financial inclusion. This is where Coins.xyz will serve as a global platform and foundation for these efforts, offering users tools for faster international transactions, secure access to DeFi services, and easier onboarding to digital asset ecosystems.
“APAC isn’t just a region—it’s proof that blockchain can go mainstream,” Amira shared.
“This is where fintech and culture meet, where innovation grows alongside trust and clear regulation. That balance between creativity and compliance is what makes real adoption possible.”
Amira will lead the company’s marketing and partnership initiatives across multiple regions, with a focus on positioning Coins.ph as a trusted player in the global digital finance sector. Her priorities include developing technology-driven brand campaigns, forming partnerships with fintech and DeFi innovators, and ensuring compliance and security standards are maintained as the company scales.
