  "summary": "WeWire, a global cross-border infrastructure and payments fintech, has been admitted to the Securities and Exchange Commission’s (SEC) Virtual Assets Regulatory Sandbox in Ghana. The company will use the sandbox to pilot the tokenisation of trade finance, aiming to address capital inefficiencies, settlement delays, and liquidity bottlenecks in cross-border trade across Africa and emerging markets. WeWire CEO Eben Ghanney emphasized the potential of tokenisation to lower barriers, reduce friction, and drastically cut costs associated with cross-border trade.",
