Foresight News reports that Xie Jiayin stated during an online live conversation that, from the perspective of underlying assets and compliance, the core difference of IPO Prime lies in the authenticity of underlying assets and its compliance framework. preOPAI is issued by the Republic platform, registered with the US SEC, on the Solana chain. Republic has long served the tokenization of primary market assets, possesses compliance licenses, and is fundamentally different from "new launches" in the market that lack regulatory certification.Xie Jiayin emphasized that although there are many "Pre-IPO" tokenization products currently, preOPAI is the only token in the entire network issued by a compliant issuer with underlying assets clearly mapped to the company's equity economic rights, and backed by real equity. Whether the underlying assets are robust depends on whether they can withstand measurement by traditional financial standards.

According to financial data firm S3 Partners, short sellers have also incurred mark-to-market losses of more than $12 billion.
