PHILADELPHIA, PA / ACCESS Newswire / October 2, 2026 / Datavault AI Inc. ("Datavault AI" or the "Company") (NASDAQ:DVLT), a provider of data monetization, credentialing, digital engagement, and real-world asset ("RWA") tokenization technologies, today announced that Nathaniel T. Bradley, CEO of Datavault AI, will present "Operating System for Tokenized Assets" at XRP Seoul 2026 on Oct. 3, 2026, at 3:05 p.m. KST at the Grand Hyatt Seoul in Seoul, South Korea. In the session, Bradley will explain why valuation, credentialing and verified metadata belong in a single operating layer beneath every real-world asset and how the Company's DataValue^®, DataScore^® and Information Data Exchange^® technologies perform those functions in a single sequence beneath the point of issuance.

"Tokenization gets treated as an issuance problem when it is really a data problem, and the Information Data Exchange exists to solve the data problem first," said Nathaniel T. Bradley, CEO of Datavault AI. "In Seoul, we will show the XRP Ledger community why valuation, credentialing and verified metadata have to live in one operating layer beneath the asset, and how our platform runs that sequence today."

Bradley will also join the panel "How Traditional Finance Is Embracing Tokenization" at 5:40 p.m. KST. Datavault AI will exhibit at the conference and deploy its ADIO acoustic data transmission technology at its booth and from the keynote stage, where ADIO audio tones will direct attendees' mobile devices to registration and giveaway experiences.

The Company's participation follows its appearances at XRP Tokyo 2026 and XRP Seoul 2025 and reflects its continued focus on expanding its presence and customer development across the Asia-Pacific region.

Separately, Datavault AI will distribute the first XRP Seoul 2026 Limited Edition Collectible Token, a commemorative digital token minted on the XRP Ledger, to XRP Seoul 2026 attendees. The token is intended solely as a commemorative digital collectible for conference attendees and features a custom 3D design created for the event. Following Bradley's keynote, attendees can claim the token through the ADIO web app, which directs them to register or sign in to the Datavault AI platform, where the token is delivered to their account.

"This is a historic first for XRP Seoul. We're thrilled to partner with Datavault AI to bring XRP Seoul's very first commemorative collectible to our attendees: a one-of-a-kind digital keepsake that marks a moment our global community will remember for years to come," said Ben Ko, Co-founder of XRPL Korea.
