NEW YORK, July 10, 2025 - (ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) - In a move poised to redefine the contours of modern proprietary trading, Hola Prime, an emerging leader in the prop trading industry, has announced two major developments: the launch of Hola Prime Futures, the world's first 1 hour withdrawals futures prop trading firm; and the strategic expansion of its forex vertical through the integration of MetaTrader 4 (MT4) - the world's most widely adopted retail trading platform.These initiatives are not just product additions - they signal Hola Prime's commitment to building a prop trading ecosystem that is faster, fairer, and far more accessible than the industry status quo.Hola Prime Futures: World's First 1-Hour Withdrawal Futures Prop Trading FirmFutures trading, once considered the preserve of institutional desks and seasoned speculators, is now witnessing a strong surge in interest from independent traders looking to diversify beyond forex and crypto. But with this shift has come a growing list of frustrations: multi-step evaluations, unclear rules, delayed withdrawals, and outdated platforms that deter rather than empower.Hola Prime Futures seeks to turn that narrative on its head."Futures prop trading has been shaped by legacy systems that serve firms more than traders," said Somesh Kapuria, CEO of Hola Prime. "We're rewriting that logic. With Hola Prime Futures, we've stripped the experience down to its most essential elements: 1 Rule. 1 Target. 1-Step Challenge. 1-on-1 Mentorship. And 1-Hour Withdrawals. It's simple by design and powerful by intent."At the core of Hola Prime Futures is a radically simplified access model: traders can choose between a 1-Step Challenge or a Direct Account, both offering access to funding levels of up to $150,000. There are no daily loss limits, no unclear or complex rules, and no hidden fine print - a stark departure from the layered complexity typical of most futures prop firms.Yet it's the withdrawal speed that truly sets Hola Prime apart. Backed by its strong and comprehensive 10-point payout system, Hola Prime Futures enables verified withdrawals within 60 minutes - an industry first in futures trading."Most prop firms still operate on outdated withdrawal cycles - three days, five days, even two weeks," said Sumedha Sharma, CFO of Hola Prime. "But when a trader qualifies, they've done the work. Our system recognizes that in real time. We've eliminated unnecessary approvals, automate what can be automated, and built the tech to support one promise: You withdraw in one hour. Every time."In addition to this, Hola Prime Futures offers Project X - a trading platform designed with simplicity and strong risk management at its core. Traders can access instruments listed on CME, COMEX, NYMEX, and CBOT, all from one intuitive interface.Furthermore, Hola Prime Futures also provides Quantower and R Trader Pro (Rithmic feed being compatible with multiple other platforms), allowing traders to work in the environment that best suits their strategy and comfort.MT4 Integration: Strengthening the Forex DomainWhile futures take center stage, Hola Prime hasn't taken its foot off the gas in the forex segment. In fact, the firm's forex vertical is receiving a major upgrade with the integration of MetaTrader 4 (MT4) - a move that underscores Hola Prime's dual-asset vision and long-term trader support strategy. They already have MT5 in place. This marks the addition of both MT4 and MT5 along with 3 other trading platforms- Ctrader, DX Trade, and Match Trade. So, Hola Prime now offers a whopping 5 trading platforms for its forex traders."MT4 is a global standard for a reason," said Kapuria. "It's reliable, intuitive, and deeply compatible with the way traders operate - from algorithmic strategies to custom indicators. Bringing MT4 into our forex vertical wasn't a tactical move; it was a strategic necessity."This complements the firm's broader commitment to accessibility, performance, and infrastructure reliability across asset classes."We don't believe in one-size-fits-all," added Sharma. "Forex traders need different tools and timelines than futures traders. Our ecosystem is now robust enough to serve both - without compromise."Education and MentorshipSupporting both launches is the firm's educational initiative, Hola Prime TV - an original content platform offering live trading sessions, expert market breakdowns, and 1-on-1 mentorship from industry experts. Unlike traditional prop firms, which often outsource trader education or rely on generic resources, Hola Prime has made coaching a direct part of its offering."Traders today want more than capital - they want guidance, community, and real conversations about risk and resilience," said Himanshu Chandel, Marketing Director at Hola Prime. He added, "Hola Prime TV is built around that ethos. It's not about showing off trades. It's about showing what it takes to last."The Vision AheadHola Prime's dual expansion - into 1-hour withdrawal futures prop model and platform-enhanced forex reflects a larger ambition: to be not just a prop firm, but a trader-first institution that defines the next generation of global trading."Our goal isn't to be the biggest," Kapuria concluded. "It's to be the most trusted. A place where traders know the rules, own their path and get rewarded without delay. We're building what every trader deserves: a fair shot."Hola Prime Futures and MT4 for Forex are both live. The future of trading isn't just faster - it's finally in the trader's favor.Social LinksInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/holaprime_global/ YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCtVEJa1Ml132Be7tnk-DjeQ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/hola-prime/?viewAsMember=true X: https://x.com/HolaPrimeGlobal Discord: https://discord.gg/TJ7TcHPXBf Quora: https://www.quora.com/profile/HolaPrime/ Reddit: https://www.reddit.com/user/HolaPrime/ Medium: https://medium.com/@social_46267 Media ContactCompany: Hola PrimeContact: Media TeamWebsite: https://holaprime.com/ Copyright 2025 ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com.

TSUKUBA, Japan, July 7, 2025 - (ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) - Potassium-ion batteries could have a higher energy density than sodium-ion batteries. This is important for large-scale energy storage such as for renewable energy.In a review published in Science and Technology of Advanced Materials, researchers have surveyed the battery technologies that will be vital for a sustainable green transition. Eunho Lim and colleagues at Korea’s Dongguk University discuss recent advances and challenges, and point towards the research needed to develop an alternative to lithium-ion batteries.Although lithium-ion batteries have been invaluable in the electronics revolution—powering laptops, smartphones, electronic vehicles, and much more—their expanding use faces a critical challenge. Lithium is not a common resource. Increasing demand has turned it into a high-value, strategic resource, and the green transition is expected to increase demand further still.One alternative is to develop battery technologies based around a more common material. Sodium-ion batteries are an option, and the technology is nearly ready for commercialization. But potassium-ion batteries would be even better, since they could have a higher energy density, which is especially important for large-scale energy storage, such as for renewable energy.“Potassium-ion batteries are emerging as a viable alternative due to the abundance and cost-effectiveness of potassium, but realizing their potential requires the development of advanced anode materials tailored to the unique properties of potassium ions,” explains Lim.Professor Lim’s review addresses the research needed to realize the potential of potassium-ion batteries. The paper systematically examines the strengths and weaknesses of different anode materials and the electrochemical mechanisms each would rely on. The paper also outlines strategies that could overcome the weaknesses of each approach, as well as the trade-offs between performance and stability. One important point that emerges is the interaction of electrochemical parameters and physical structures in determining the potassium-ion batteries’ capacity and longevity. Based on this overview, the team highlights paths for future research to advance potassium-ion battery technology.Lim plans to build on this groundwork, aiming to design new materials that can deliver the promise of potassium-ion batteries while working around their limitations. “My research will focus on the development of cost-effective, high-performance, and safe anode materials for potassium-ion batteries,” he says. He also plans to use advanced characterization techniques to investigate some of the fundamental phenomena that happen in the battery materials. “Understanding these mechanisms will be crucial for optimizing material design and electrode architecture.”“Ultimately,” he says, “my goal is to contribute to the commercialization of potassium-ion batteries by developing materials that can rival or exceed the performance of current lithium-ion battery anodes.”Further informationEunho LimDongguk University, Republic of Koreaeunholim@dgu.ac.krPaper: https://doi.org/10.1080/14686996.2025.2518746About Science and Technology of Advanced Materials (STAM)Open access journal STAM publishes outstanding research articles across all aspects of materials science, including functional and structural materials, theoretical analyses, and properties of materials. https://www.tandfonline.com/STAM Dr. Kazuya SaitoSTAM Publishing DirectorEmail: SAITO.Kazuya@nims.go.jpPress release distributed by Asia Research News for Science and Technology of Advanced Materials.

All prices and share numbers in this release assume completion of a 10:1 consolidation ("Consolidation") prior to or concurrent with the Offering.The Offering is subject to the TSX Venture Exchange (the "Exchange") acceptance and approvals required under the Australian Securities Exchange ("ASX") Listing Rules, as well as other regulatory approvals. Concurrent with, or prior to the Offering, the Company intends to complete a consolidation (the "Consolidation") of the issued and outstanding common shares issued on the Exchange and Chess Depositary Interests ("CDIs") on the ASX on the basis of ten (10) pre-Consolidation shares being consolidated to one (1) post-Consolidation share. Existing options will be consolidated on the same basis. The Consolidation will be subject to approval from the Company's shareholders, the Exchange, and ASX.The Units will comprise one common share (a "Share") and one common share purchase warrant (a "Warrant"), each Warrant entitling the holder to acquire a further common share at a price of C$0.50 for a term of three (3) years. The Shares will be subject to a one (1) year hold period from the closing date and such other restrictions as may be required by applicable securities laws and stock exchange rules. Fifteen (15) months after the closing date, the Company will have the right to accelerate the expiry date of the Warrants (the "Acceleration") if the weighted average closing price of the Company's common shares on the Exchange equals or exceeds C$0.75 (the "Acceleration Price") for 20 consecutive trading days (the "Acceleration Event"). Upon the occurrence of the Acceleration Event, the expiry date of the Warrants will then be 30 days from the date of issue of a news release announcing the Acceleration."This relatively unique financing structure puts Kincora in a strong position to leverage and accelerate our strategy of more drilling, more asset level deals, more management fees and discoveries," Cameron McRae, Chairman of Kincora, and Sam Spring, President and CEO. "We're especially pleased to have this strategy endorsed and financing supported by a number of leading North American natural resource sector investors, including Rick Rule and Jeff Phillips, and other new and existing respected institutional and accredited investors."The Company plans to use the net proceeds to fund its ongoing project generation strategy, undertake significant drilling at its 100% owned gold-base metals Condobolin project, as well as for general working capital and corporate purposes.The Offering is subject to certain conditions customary for transactions of this nature, including, but not limited to, the receipt of all necessary approvals, including the approval of the Exchange and shareholder approvals required by the ASX. In the event the Company completes the Consolidation at a ratio other than the 10:1 ratio referenced above, certain provisions of the Offering will be adjusted accordingly, including the price per Unit, the Warrant exercise price and the Acceleration Price. Completion of the Consolidation will be subject to regulatory and shareholder approval. All Warrants underlying the Units will be subject to a four (4) month plus one day hold period and Shares underlying the Units will be subject to a one (1) year hold period from closing.A portion of the Offering is expected to include a related party transaction within the meaning of Multilateral Instrument 61-101 given the expected participation of one or potentially more existing insiders. The Company is relying on the exemptions in sections 5.5(a) and 5.7(1)(a) of Multilateral Instrument 61-101 from the valuation and shareholder approval requirements based on the fact that the fair market value of the transactions (as it concerns related parties) is not more than 25% of the market capitalization of the Company.The Company may pay finders' fees in connection with the Offering in accordance with the policies of the Exchange.The Company also announces that, effective July 7, 2025, (the "Grant Date"), its Board of Directors has granted an aggregate of 3,266,927 stock options (on a post-Consolidation basis) of the Company to certain directors, officers, and consultants of the Company, with all of such stock options (the "Conditional Options") being subject to the receipt of the applicable approval of the disinterested shareholders of the Company, acceptance of the Exchange and approvals required under the ASX Listing Rules. All such stock options shall be exercisable to purchase one common share in the capital of the Company at $0.50 per Share (on a post-Consolidation basis) for a period of three (3) years from the Grant Date and such other terms as may be acceptable to the Exchange.The Conditional Options, together with an amended equity incentive plan that will sufficiently increase the reserve of stock options available to the Company, will be presented to the disinterested shareholders of the Company for review and consideration and, if satisfactory, approval at an upcoming Annual General and Special Meeting of Shareholders of the Company.This press release does not constitute an offer to sell or a solicitation of an offer to buy nor shall there be any sale of any of the securities in any jurisdiction in which such offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful. This news release does not constitute an offer to sell or solicitation of an offer to sell any securities in the United States.

The Company is now successfully proving up the prospectivity of its extensive project portfolio, which includes multiple district-scale landholdings and scalable drill ready targets. These assets are located in Australia's Macquarie Arc and Mongolia's Southern Gobi, two of the globe's leading porphyry belts, and the historical Condobolin mining field within the southern section of the Cobar superbasin in New South Wales, Australia.Kincora is using an asset level partner model to develop and implement exploration strategies for its wholly-owned large-scale exploration stage porphyry projects. It has already unlocked over $110 million of potential partner funding for multiple earlier stage and/or non-core porphyry projects, which has resulted in over A$5.5-million of partner funding and 11,000m of drilling to date. Partner discussions are ongoing for its remaining 100% owned flagship projects that are all situated within existing porphyry camps containing over 20 million ounce gold equivalent resource inventory at third party mines and deposits.These partner agreements, when combined with others in the pipeline, are targeted to provide sufficient project management fees for the Company to be self-funding (covering corporate costs and maintenance of remaining wholly owned projects).Kincora is adopting a different exploration funding model for its Condobolin project, which hosts the historical Condobolin open cut gold and base metals mining field located within the southern section of the emerging Cobar Superbasin. The length of time and capital required to both advance and add significant value to this project is expected to be materially less than that needed to similarly progress the Company's porphyry projects.To learn more, please visit: www.kincoracopper.comThis announcement has been authorised for release by the Board of Kincora Copper Limited (ARBN 645 457 763)For further information please contact: Sam Spring, President and Chief Executive Officersam.spring@kincoracopper.com or +61431 329 345Executive office400 - 837 West Hastings StreetVancouver, BC V6C 3N6, CanadaTel: 1-604-630-7296Subsidiary office AustraliaC/- JM Corporate ServicesLevel 6, 350 Collins StreetMelbourne, VIC, Australia 3000 Forward-Looking StatementsCertain information regarding Kincora contained herein may constitute forward-looking statements within the meaning of applicable securities laws.
