[NEW YORK, August 25, 2025] -- A blockchain-powered fintech group and Nasdaq-listed company Mercurity Fintech Holding Inc. (MFH) (NASDAQ: MFH, Russell 2000 Index component) announced today that Peter Nobel (Peter Nobel), Chairman of Nobel Foundation for Sustainable Development, has officially become an independent director of the company, and Wilfred Daye, MFH's Chief Strategy Officer, will also join the board of directors .
This is not only a century handshake between traditional financial authorities and cryptofinancial innovation, but also a key milestone in Bitcoin's deep integration with mainstream capital markets. It is also another historic endorsement Bitcoin has received on the global stage.
As the backbone of the Nobel family's heritage, Peter Nobel has accumulated an outstanding reputation and rich experience in global sustainability, industrial innovation, and corporate governance for decades. He has held senior positions at international industry giants such as Alfa Laval and SWEP International, leading many transformative developments in clean energy, heating, air conditioning (HVAC), and advanced materials
.Today, this leading figure with a century-old family reputation and strategic vision has set his sights on the cutting edge of the intersection of Web3, artificial intelligence, and digital capital markets — a new highland that is profoundly reshaping the global financial landscape. Peter's addition will inject solid impetus into MFH's long-term strategy: integrating financial innovation with sustainable development, transparency, and international institutional standards in the process of accelerating the construction of next-generation financial infrastructure. Its key layout covers key areas such as Bitcoin and Solana treasury management, AI-driven compliance technology, and on-chain settlement of tokenized assets, fully locking in the core circuit of future finance.
MFH CEO Shi Qiu said, “Peter Nobel has irreplaceable strategic value in our industry — he is a bridge between the institutional credibility that traditional finance relies on and the innovative spirit required in the digital asset world. “With Chief Strategy Officer Wilfred Daye joining the board, our governance and strategic capabilities will be taken to a new level, helping to create a transparent, robust, and forward-looking financial ecosystem.”
Since founding the Nobel Trust for Sustainability in 2007 — the only institution led by the Nobel family and focused on global sustainability — Peter Nobel has been working to extend Alfred Nobel's vision of “benefiting humanity” to contemporary challenges, from climate governance to responsible capital. As the most representative face of the Nobel family in the global business field, his involvement in digital finance is seen as a continuation of this century-old wave of ethics and technology — and a historic step in the Nobel
spirit towards epoch-making technologies such as blockchain and artificial intelligence.Peter Nobel said, “The rise of blockchain and digital assets is triggering a revolution in value circulation unprecedented in the history of the human economy. What made me choose to join MFH was not only their visionary layout, but also their unwavering commitment to leading this transformation with transparency, sustainability, and ethical governance at the core. Just as Alfred Nobel established awards back then to recognize outstanding achievements that drive human progress, today we are shouldering the same mission — to ensure that financial innovation not only speeds up transactions, but actually benefits the future of all humankind. I'm really looking forward to working with MFH
to advance this historic process.”“With Nobel and Daye's addition, MFH has also gained a trustworthy institutional voice and a heavyweight intellect with deep knowledge of fintech strategies.”
