NEW YORK, April 30, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — The Sei Development Foundation announced today that TMO Labs, a Web3 fintech company, will integrate with Sei Network, a high-performance Layer-1 blockchain, with the integration aimed at bringing blockchain technology into Korea’s everyday payments and financial infrastructure.

As part of the integration, TMO Labs will use Sei as the core blockchain behind TMO Wallet, with a focus on expanding real-world use cases across consumer payments, rewards, and digital finance in Korea.

Sei was chosen for its ability to handle real-time payment environments. With sub-second finality and high throughput, it supports large-scale activity and high-frequency transactions without sacrificing the speed and reliability users expect from modern payment systems.

TMO Labs is a Korean payment infrastructure company with deep experience in transit payments, mobile payments, loyalty systems, and consumer financial services. Built on this foundation, TMO Labs develops platforms that connect digital assets with real-world utility.

Its flagship product, TMO Wallet, is already connected to DaemDaem, a widely used transportation top-up and lifestyle rewards app in Korea, and has access to a large existing user base. TMO Wallet is also designed to connect with major domestic payment and loyalty ecosystems, including Naver Pay, Payco, Happy Point, L.POINT, and transportation-linked payment rails such as TMONEY and EZL.

Even accounting for overlapping users, these platforms represent tens of millions of consumer touchpoints across Korea’s payment and rewards landscape.

Sei will serve as the blockchain layer powering TMO Wallet‘s next phase of real-world financial utility. Users will be able to hold Sei-based digital assets, including stablecoins, within the wallet and link those assets to TMO Labs’ point and payment infrastructure for use in everyday transactions.

This will enable a more unified wallet experience where users can manage digital assets, rewards points, and payment balances in one place, and apply them across real-life use cases such as retail purchases, online commerce, and transportation top-ups.

More broadly, the integration is part of an effort to better connect blockchain infrastructure with the real economy—linking onchain assets to the payment and rewards systems people in Korea already use every day.

TMO Labs’ integration with Sei will span several key areas, including:

blockchain-based payment and rewards infrastructure;integration with Korean payment and loyalty services;expansion into transportation, mobility, and lifestyle use cases; anddevelopment of consumer-facing Web3 financial services grounded in real-world utility.

Jin Kim, Founder of TMO Labs said, “This partnership marks an important step toward making blockchain technology a natural part of everyday financial activity and consumer spending in Korea. By combining TMO Labs’ payment infrastructure with Sei’s high-performance blockchain, we aim to deliver a practical digital finance experience centered on real usage.”

Justin Barlow, Executive Director of Sei Development Foundation added, “TMO Labs is closely connected to Korea’s payment, transit, and rewards infrastructure. Through this integration, TMO Labs is well positioned to deliver one of the most meaningful examples of blockchain being applied in real consumer environments.”

AMSTERDAM, Aug. 25, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Hollyland, a global provider of professional wireless audio and video solutions, is set to introduce new solutions for professional live production and modern content creation at IBC 2026. From September 11 to 14, 2026, the company will showcase its expanded ecosystem at Booth 11.C28 in the RAI Amsterdam convention center, where visitors can explore its newest technologies and products scheduled for release later in 2026.

Expanding Live Production Portfolio

Hollyland continues to expand its product range with new solutions for professional production and content creation. At IBC 2026, the company will introduce new solutions for professional live production, designed to help production teams work more efficiently, reliably, and seamlessly in demanding environments. The new lineup includes the Pyro 7 Ultra professional wireless monitor, Argus X1 all-in-one live production switcher, and Solidcom C1 Air and Solidcom SE 2 intercom systems.

The Pyro 7 Ultra, launching on September 3, brings professional monitoring and wireless video transmission together in one 7-inch monitor. Professional productions have traditionally relied on separate wireless transmission systems and standalone field monitors, with additional cables between devices and separate power sources for each device. The Pyro 7 Ultra can serve as an on-camera monitor and transmitter, or as a handheld monitor and receiver for mobile viewing. Its QD-LCD display delivers exceptional color accuracy, with each unit factory-calibrated via Calman® to achieve a ΔE <1.5. Users can also recalibrate the display with the Hollyland Color Calibrator to maintain color accuracy over time. The system also offers 20ms latency, 1km transmission, unlimited receivers, 4K60 video transmission, and TWiFi technology.

Also debuting is Argus X1, an all‑in‑one live production switcher slated for release in December. Argus X1 consolidates switching, monitoring, recording, streaming, and content delivery into a single device. A 10.1‑inch FHD touchscreen provides intuitive control, while 4K60 video I/O and support for three Hollyland wireless transmitters expand its flexibility across multi‑camera workflows. Built‑in streaming, ISO recording, MultiView, and connectivity options including Wi‑Fi 6, 4G, and Gigabit Ethernet make Argus X1 a central hub within the Hollyland production ecosystem.

Two new intercom systems will also be introduced during the event. Solidcom C1 Air features an open‑ear design, a 42g headset, 300m wireless range, and dual‑microphone ENC for clean dialogue. Solidcom SE 2 adds intelligent frequency hopping, a 123g build, 20 dB ENC, 3.5mm audio I/O, and up to 10 hours of runtime, delivering stable performance for field and studio teams.

Empowering Modern Content Creation

Hollyland is also expanding its creator‑focused audio lineup with several new tools designed for modern podcasting and production. LARK A2, arriving in early September, offers 48 kHz/24‑bit recording, three‑level AI noise cancellation, a 200m range, and an 8.5g transmitter. Quick charging, AI power saving, intuitive controls, and a –6 dB safety track support dependable on‑the‑go capture.

Launching on September 22, the LARK M3 introduces flexible multi‑person recording with support for four transmitters and four receivers. It provides four‑track independent recording, 48 kHz/32‑bit float audio, vocal presets, 300m transmission and up to eight hours of use on a single charge. The LARK M3 is well suited for podcasts, interviews, video conversations, and multi-person content creation.

Rounding out the lineup, the VenusLiv Air 2 will arrive in November with 4K60 UVC streaming and SAR AI Tuning 2.0, while maintaining the core performance of the VenusLiv Air.

During IBC 2026, Hollyland will host Roll & Win giveaways from September 11–14. Visitors can participate for a chance to win Hollyland’s products and other prizes. On September 11, the company will unveil its new products, followed by an anniversary celebration that evening. Meanwhile, all showcased solutions will be available for hands‑on experience at Booth 11.C28 throughout the exhibition.
