Transformative Initiative Merges Regulated Finance with Web3 Capabilities
This initiative merges the country’s regulated operations across lotteries, gaming, capital markets, banking, and online trading. It pairs these sectors with the capabilities of Web3 and decentralised finance. This Web3 National Lottery marks a transformative moment for blockchain-enabled regulated industries. It arrives in a market already showing strong crypto adoption.
Integrating AI, Blockchain, and Regulated Finance
The collaboration will allow Filipino users to purchase regulated national lottery tickets using cryptocurrency, creating a tangible bridge between traditional gaming and digital assets. On the technical side, M42’s AI platform integrates with Constellation Network’s Hypergraph Network, a decentralised framework that ensures secure, scalable, and transparent data exchange. Constellation’s DAG token powers data validation and security within the network. DFNN brings its extensive experience with regulated operations. It will provide the necessary licenses and infrastructure for lotteries, banking, exchanges, and online trading.

This combination enables real-world applications that are both compliant and innovative. For example, a lottery ticket purchase using crypto could be instantly verified and securely recorded on the blockchain, while AI ensures compliance with regulatory rules and fraud prevention. The Philippines, which ranks fourth globally in crypto adoption with nearly 13% of the population using digital assets, presents an ideal testbed for these technologies. The lottery sector alone accounts for over 45% of the nation’s gaming revenue, offering a clear pathway for blockchain adoption.
Unlocking Opportunities and Innovation
By merging AI, blockchain, and financial regulation, the partnership aims to create a more transparent, efficient, and inclusive ecosystem. Crypto-enabled payments, transparent draws, and regulated cross-border participation are just some of the potential use cases. This effort also aligns with a growing trend in the Asia-Pacific region, where countries are exploring digital finance solutions that integrate traditional industries with emerging technologies.
