FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

I-ON Digital Corp. Retains Craft Capital to Advance Capital Strategy and Prepare for National Exchange Uplisting

Recent digital asset banking and tokenization deals strengthen I-ON's capital markets readiness ahead of a planned 2026 uplisting.

November 24, 2025 — I-ON Digital Corp. (OTCQB:IONI), a U.S.-based digital asset infrastructure company specializing in real-world-asset (RWA) tokenization and regulated digital asset banking, today announced a strategic engagement with Craft Capital Management, LLC ("Craft Capital") to strengthen its capital markets strategy, support upcoming financing initiatives, and guide the Company's preparations for a potential national exchange uplisting.

Craft Capital, headquartered in Garden City, New York, is a full-service broker-dealer and investment bank providing institutional and retail brokerage, private and public capital advisory, uplisting expertise, and comprehensive corporate finance solutions. The collaboration is designed to align I-ON's accelerating RWA tokenization activity with disciplined, market-ready capital formation.

This engagement comes at a time of accelerating operational and transactional momentum for I-ON Digital—momentum that increases the importance of experienced capital markets guidance as the Company scales. Recent activity leveraging ION.au's institutional gold treasury includes:

● An institutional transaction with RAAC.io, a co-founder of the RWA Federation, integrating ION.au – I-ON Digital's fully backed, LBMA-priced digital gold asset – into RAAC's regulated DeFi lending, borrowing, and $PMUSD stablecoin infrastructure.

● Commercial deployment by GGBR, Inc. (goldfishgold.com) of ION's institutional gold treasury as the backing for retail, micro-denominated, gold-backed digital stablecoins.

● Advancement of the I-ON's Digital Asset Platform (DAP), enabling regional and local banks to integrate RWA digitization and gold-backed asset tools into their emerging digital-asset ecosystems.

Rising institutional demand for I-ON's regulated RWA solutions underscore the importance of securing seasoned capital markets guidance at this stage of the Company's growth. Craft Capital's expertise and advisory support will help guide I-ON through a period of expected expansion and increasing capital requirements. Craft Capital's involvement reinforces the Company's commitment to building a compliant, transparent, and scalable digital asset ecosystem that delivers long-term value for stakeholders.

"Craft Capital's institutional advisory capabilities, capital markets experience, and uplisting expertise align with I-ON's long-term objective of establishing a fully compliant, transparent, and scalable digital asset banking platform." shared I-ON Digital's CEO, Carlos X. Montoya. "Recent transactions reflect increasing market validation for our gold-tokenization model and digital treasury hypothecation framework. Craft will assist us in preparing for increased institutional engagement, structured capital formation, and the requirements associated with a national exchange uplisting."

Montoya continued, "We believe these developments position I-ON for meaningful expansion in 2026 as the market for regulated real-world-asset tokenization continues to accelerate."

I-ON's multi-layered strategic direction aligns with broader global trends in the RWA market. Independent analyses from major financial institutions project multi-trillion-dollar expansion in tokenized assets over the next decade—driven by institutional demand for transparent, asset-backed instruments; improved capital efficiency; and enhanced auditability and reporting.
