Vancouver, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - December 23, 2025) - Pioneer AI Foundry Inc. (Cboe CA: JPEG) (FSE: 6NU0) ("Pioneer" or the "Company"), a publicly listed AI venture builder at the intersection of artificial intelligence and decentralized finance, is providing an update on the continued progress of its Kora AI Agent trading platform, development of its digital asset treasury initiatives and recent activities across its strategic ventures.
Pioneer's layered Digital Asset Treasury strategy combines direct Bitcoin holdings, Kora's AI-driven automation layer, and minority venture equity positions in listed companies active in Bitcoin treasury and AI infrastructure. Together, these components form the foundation of the Company's digital asset approach.
"Our recent milestones in Kora's cloud execution and digital asset management reflect steady, deliberate progress across our technology and treasury strategies. We remain focused on disciplined execution as we advance our roadmap" said Darcy Taylor, CEO of Pioneer AI Foundry Inc.
KORA completes internal MCP cloud execution milestone
A Kora development milestone that enables execution of its Model Context Protocol ("MCP") framework, which enables secure and standardized communication between AI agents and external tools, in a controlled cloud environment.
This work is part of the Company's development roadmap and is intended to support scalable cloud execution, distributed processing, and enterprise-grade security. All referenced capabilities have been implemented in limited internal testing and are currently undergoing validation. MCP components are operating in cloud environments under testing for consistent performance under varying workloads and to maintain availability for sensitive operational tasks.
This milestone is designed to improve accessibility by enabling cloud-based execution of complex tasks and support agents that require the ability to perform computationally demanding workloads such as large dataset analysis or simulation tasks without relying on local processing resources. The work includes refining resource allocation practices, extending monitoring systems, strengthening disaster recovery processes, and ensuring alignment with applicable regional data handling requirements consistent with applicable regulatory expectations.
