Not just buying coins, how do FLock and CIMG reconstruct the production narrative of DATs 2.0?

I see that Flock has also joined the narrative camp of Wall Street DAT (Digital Asset Treasury).

Interestingly, the collaboration between FLock and CIMG Inc. is completely different from the usual practice of buying ETH and BTC as reserve assets to drive stock prices. To elaborate: Specifically, FLock and CIMG Inc. adopt a deeply integrated business collaboration model, where CIMG needs to purchase FLOCK tokens as reserve assets. The two parties will also jointly develop a product called LifeNode, an AI health monitoring and smart recommendation tool, with FLock providing technical services in AI privacy computing and federated learning.

1. The currently popular DATs model on Wall Street is essentially a replica of the Crypto (3.3) model, where buying coins leads to a rise in stock prices, followed by issuing bonds, and then buying coins again. Its positive flywheel operation mode relies on a favorable market trend, which somewhat resembles a "Ponzi" scheme. This belongs to the first wave of speculative DATs, where Wall Street listed companies use Crypto to hype up stock prices, and the Crypto market leverages Wall Street's FOMO to attract external incremental funds for price surges.

The collaboration model between FLock and CIMG adopts a deep integration of "business + tokens". On one hand, due to the need to acquire tokens, the value of FLock's tokens is substantively linked to the main business operations of the listed company; on the other hand, FLock provides AI technology supply services, which will directly influence CIMG's strategy and market performance. In other words, the cooperation between the two is not merely speculative hype but has resulted in business synergy and value connection.

2. To deeply understand this, one must look at the publicly listed company CIMG Inc. This company is quite interesting; on the surface, it started with coffee, but through a series of acquisition moves (AI smart product selection from Xilin Online, and the "industry + AI + capital" four-wheel drive of Huomao Culture), it has transformed itself into a digital health group powered by a "technology + marketing" dual-engine.

This collaboration with FLock represents a direct jump from AI applications in marketing to AI innovation in product development—LifeNode is realized, and CIMG has truly transformed from a "company using AI" to a "company making AI products." The key point is that FLock's federated learning and privacy computing technology precisely addresses the core pain point of health data applications: how to achieve AI personalized services while protecting user privacy?

3. In fact, if the cooperation model between FLock and CIMG can be successfully implemented, it may usher in the era of DATs 2.0 - production-oriented DATs. This model benefits both parties: for FLock, having stable B-end customers and financial support allows it to focus on technological research and development; for CIMG, it not only gains advanced AI technology capabilities but also receives the growth dividends of the Crypto industry through token reserves. The key is that the application of LifeNode will become the foundation of the cooperation between both parties, and subsequent user growth, technological iteration, and commercialization processes will feedback into the benefits of the collaboration.
