dVIN Labs Launches dVIN Protocol from Stealth to Tokenize the $1T Wine Asset Class

Published

dVIN Labs launches the dVIN protocol from stealth to unify the $1T wine asset class through data, DePIN and tokenization.

Coinciding with dVIN’s launch is the start of the Cellar Challenge Where Users Earn Points for Tokenizing Their Own Wine Collection & Sharing Wine with Friends

NEW YORK, July 24, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — dVIN Labs, the development team behind the dVIN protocol, today announced the launch of the dVIN Protocol (“dVIN” or the Protocol) from stealth. The dVIN protocol is built on Solana and is designed to leverage a combination of data, DePIN and tokenization to bring wine, a $1T real world asset class, on-chain.

David Garrett, Co-Founder & CEO of dVIN Labs, commented on the news, “We’re thrilled to announce the launch of dVIN Labs’s first protocol, dVIN, from stealth. By transforming each bottle into a unique digital asset, the tokenization of luxury wine enhances the social and economic dimensions of wine collecting and investing.”

The launch of dVIN is marked by the introduction of the Cellar Challenge, an initiative that enables participants to earn points by tokenizing bottles from their home cellar, and then opening those bottles and sharing each bottle with up to 12 friends to earn Tasting Tokens. Exclusive to dVIN, Tasting Token™ NFTs (“Tasting Tokens”) are functional NFTs connected to a Digital Cork™ NFT (“Digital Cork”). When a bottle is tokenized, it’s linked to a Digital Cork NFT on the blockchain. Tasting Tokens are minted when these bottles are opened and the Digital Cork is destroyed.

Collecting Tasting Tokens grants access to exclusive experiences and special rewards from winemakers. Over time, these NFTs serve as an immersive virtual tasting journal, allowing winemakers to engage directly with consumers at the moment of enjoyment and offer tailored incentives. The Cellar Challenge will not only generate valuable data but also facilitate the rapid acquisition of new users. Additionally by unlocking “Beast Mode,” luxury wine enthusiasts can rack up additional points in the challenge by competing to conquer one of the five leaderboards.

Club dVIN (or “the Club”), is the world’s premier global wine club providing members access to unparalleled wine experiences and exclusive benefits. The Club’s ~1,000 early adopters along with several of dVIN’s partner communities – including RealVision, CryptoMondays, Friends with Benefits, Madlads among others – will have the ability to join the Cellar Challenge early. For instance, RealVision ProCrypto members will receive special access and points, with every member getting at least 12,000 points if they join the challenge, and can earn up to 48,000 points if they complete all the quests!

Points accumulated in the Cellar Challenge will translate to a $VIN airdrop at the time of the token launch in Q3 2024 and others to be announced. For more information on the mechanics of the $VIN Token, see the $VIN Whitepaper.

Garrett concluded, “The Cellar Challenge will help wine enthusiasts engage with their collections and share their experiences, serving as both a sandbox and proof of concept, to showcase the capabilities of dVIN.”

dVIN Labs also recently partnered with SegMint GmbH (“SegMint”), a digital assets management platform, to fractionalize 12 bottles (0.75L) of Weingut Egon Müller 2022 Riesling Scharzhofberger Auslese, making them for sale via the platform here. Egon Müller is the only German producer to belong to the world’s most exclusive alliance of the 12 best family-owned wineries, Primum Familiae Vini, and its wines are some of the most coveted and collectible in the world, but also among the most costly ounce for ounce.

Which makes these bottles ideal first candidates for the first set of luxury wines offered as a more reasonable fractionalized investment via the SegMint platform. This is the first of many luxury wine listings that dVIN Labs plans to organize with luxury wine listings planned for RWA marketplaces like Jupiter’s Giant Unified Marketplace (“GUM”) and others to be announced.

About dVIN Labs:
dVIN Labs is the development team behind the dVIN protocol which is designed to leverage a combination of data, DePIN and tokenization to bring wine, a $1T real world asset class, on-chain. The dVIN Protocol leverages blockchain technology to both allow wine enthusiasts to monetize their data and be rewarded for their wine activity, purchases, and loyalty. While winemakers simultaneously incentivize these wine lovers to share consumption data and personal data in order to drive deeper consumer relationships, making their businesses more responsive, efficient and profitable.

Elementix and Lightning Docs Announce Reporting Partnership to Deliver Industry-Comprehensive Data on Business-Purpose Lending

Published

on

By

Each company’s monthly report will draw on shared recorded transaction data and loan-level document data, giving lenders, brokers, and investors a more complete view of current bridge, fix-and-flip, construction, and DSCR lending.

IRVINE, Calif., Oct. 27, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Elementix, a leading provider of aggregated data on business-purpose lending, and Lightning Docs, the premier loan document automation platform for private lenders, Non-QM lenders, credit unions, and law firms, today announced a data-sharing partnership to strengthen reporting on the business-purpose lending market.

The partnership brings together two complementary datasets. Elementix aggregates recorded real estate transactions nationwide, including mortgages, deeds, satisfactions, assignments, and preforeclosure filings, providing a comprehensive picture of lender activity, loan volume, and market share. Lightning Docs captures loan-level terms at the point of document generation, including interest rates, loan amounts, and loan structures, from a document automation platform used by 60% of the nation’s top 50 private lenders. Combined, the two sources produce a level of coverage and detail that has been unprecedented in the private lending space.

“Private lending has long been an opaque industry, with limited data on interest rates, loan amounts, geographic trends, and other metrics that are vital to running a profitable operation,” said Nema Daghbandan, CEO of Lightning Docs. “Lightning Docs set the standard for monthly private lending market reporting, and this partnership raises it. By pairing our loan-level data with Elementix’s transaction data, we are delivering reporting with the scale, precision, and depth the market has been missing, and providing lenders, brokers, and investors a clearer view of the industry than they have ever had before.”

Each report, delivered at a regular monthly cadence, will cover bridge, fix-and-flip, ground-up construction, and DSCR loans, with aggregated data on interest rates, loan amounts, loan volume, lender activity, geographic trends at the state and regional level. All data will be aggregated and anonymized, with no borrower- or lender-specific loan terms disclosed.

“Managing risk in private lending starts with understanding the borrower and the broader market, yet lenders often have to make decisions with incomplete information. Elementix was built to help lenders understand that risk through public record data, and partnering with Lightning Docs adds the loan-level detail that completes the picture. Together, we’re helping lenders better understand market conditions and bring that context into how they assess and manage risk,” said Cameron Kelliher, founder and CEO of Elementix.

The first joint report is scheduled for release in November 2026. Reports will be published on the Lightning Docs and Elementix websites and distributed to subscribers of both companies.

Meet Providi: One Company Behind Cerbo and OptiMantra

Published

on

By

The new name reflects a long-term commitment to the cash-pay personalized care market, where Cerbo and OptiMantra keep their brands and together serve nearly 7,000 clinics.

ATLANTA, Oct. 27, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Providi launched today as the corporate brand of the company behind Cerbo and OptiMantra, two long-standing products in the cash-pay personalized care market. The companies combined in 2025, backed by a growth investment from Mainsail Partners. Cerbo and OptiMantra will continue as product brands within Providi.

Together, the two providers of electronic health record (EHR) and practice management products support nearly 7,000 clinics. These include functional, integrative, longevity, wellness, direct primary care, concierge, med spa and behavioral health practices. Both have served the market since 2011.

The name Providi combines “provi,” for the provider at the center of every practice, with “vidi,” Latin for “I saw.” It stands for a company that starts with the provider and can see where personalized care is going.

Providi’s mission is to empower personalized care providers to deliver better patient outcomes and create thriving practices. That mission is already shaping the product roadmap. With the Cerbo and OptiMantra teams building together, new capabilities reach providers faster, and AI Scribe is the first example. Available now, Cerbo AI Scribe captures visit notes automatically, so providers spend less time charting between visits or after hours. OptiMantra AI Scribe, built on lessons from the Cerbo launch, is coming to OptiMantra providers soon.

“Personalized care providers built this market one practice at a time, each one designed around the time, attention and care they believe every patient deserves,” said Jeff Hindman, CEO of Providi. “Cerbo and OptiMantra have each earned the trust of thousands of practices, and Providi exists to amplify that work. Coming together as one company accelerates the innovation we can bring to market and enables us to invest more in both products. Our focus remains giving the providers already running our products and the new providers entering the market the technology they need to succeed.”

Providers can expect to log in to the same Cerbo and OptiMantra products, reach out to the same reps and receive support, onboarding and product updates the same way they do today. They will start to see the Providi name at combined events and in company communications, and they’ll feel it in their products: two teams sharing what they learn, active investment in both products and new capabilities reaching their practices sooner.
