WEMIX is making a strategic move into Southeast Asia’s fast-growing crypto and gaming market, announcing the listing of its native token on Coins.ph, the Philippines’ largest digital asset platform. The listing, which goes live on March 17, 2026, marks a significant step in deepening WEMIX’s global reach while tapping into one of the world’s most active gaming communities.
The expansion aligns with WEMIX’s broader vision of merging blockchain technology with immersive gaming ecosystems. By enabling direct trading against the Philippine peso (PHP), the listing removes barriers for local users, making it easier for both gamers and crypto enthusiasts to participate in the WEMIX economy.

Strengthening GameFi growth in a gaming-first market
The Philippines has long been recognized as a hotspot for online gaming and GameFi adoption, making it a natural fit for WEMIX’s next phase of growth. The ecosystem is closely tied to Legend of YMIR, a flagship MMORPG developed by WEMADE, which has already seen strong engagement from Filipino players.
The Philippines is also positioning itself as a global pioneer in tokenized finance, with a 2025 report estimating a $60-billion market for tokenized assets by 2030. To accelerate momentum, WEMIX recently launched the “Manila” Partner Server for the game on March 10, designed to onboard new users and stimulate in-game economic activity.
Amira Alawi, Global Marketing Director at Coins.ph, emphasized the importance of accessibility, noting that direct PHP trading simplifies entry into GameFi ecosystems. According to her, Filipino gamers are quick to embrace new digital economies when participation is frictionless and rewarding.
Regulatory backing and global expansion strategy
Founded in 2014, Coins.ph boasts over 18 million users and operates under regulatory oversight from Bangko Sentral ng Pilipinas. Its compliance as both a Virtual Asset Service Provider and Electronic Money Issuer reinforces trust and liquidity for new listings like WEMIX.
Shane Kim, CEO of WEMIX, expressed confidence that the listing will strengthen synergy between its blockchain infrastructure and gaming ecosystem, particularly within the Philippines.
WEMIX is also transitioning its USD-based stablecoin from WEMIX$ to USDC.e, and users are strongly advised to retrieve assets from WEMIX$ liquidity pools before April 6, 2026, to avoid potential losses when the Foundation withdraws liquidity; this stablecoin focus is complemented by the recent debut of the StableNet wallet by Wemade, which serves as a compliant gateway for its planned Korean won (KRW) stablecoin network.
