Datavault AI Closes NYIAX Acquisition, Bolstering Blockchain and Exchange Infrastructure for Tokenized Assets

Datavault AI Inc. (NASDAQ: DVLT), a provider of AI-driven data monetization and tokenization solutions, has completed its acquisition of NYIAX, Inc., a contract management exchange and operator of a blockchain-enabled marketplace for trading guaranteed contractual assets. The deal, announced in a press release, adds institutional-grade exchange technology, blockchain settlement infrastructure, and a proprietary platform protected by four issued U.S. patents, with a fifth patent application filed. This strategic move is expected to enhance Datavault AI's tokenization pipeline, spanning from asset origination and AI-driven valuation to tokenization, commercialization, exchange infrastructure, and secondary-market participation.

The acquisition is poised to support the development of specialized exchanges across emerging asset categories, including the International Elements Exchange (IEE) for tokenized critical minerals and commodities, Project Democracy and the American Political Exchange (APE), athlete NIL marketplaces, healthcare and enterprise data exchanges, and intellectual property and media rights marketplaces. By integrating NYIAX's capabilities, Datavault AI aims to create a comprehensive ecosystem for trading tokenized assets, leveraging its existing AI and data monetization expertise.

Additionally, the acquisition brings Collective Audience's commercialization, audience development, and market activation capabilities into Datavault AI, building on a collaboration that began in March 2025. This synergy is expected to accelerate the adoption of Datavault AI's platform and expand its reach in the Web3 environment.

Datavault AI's platform is designed to serve multiple industries, including high-performance computing software licensing for sports & entertainment, events & venues, biotech, education, fintech, real estate, healthcare, and energy. The company's Information Data Exchange enables Digital Twins and the licensing of name, image, and likeness by securely attaching physical real-world objects to immutable metadata, fostering responsible AI with integrity.

The closing of the NYIAX acquisition marks a significant milestone for Datavault AI as it continues to build out its end-to-end solution for tokenized assets. With the addition of exchange and blockchain settlement infrastructure, the company is well-positioned to capitalize on the growing demand for secure and transparent digital asset trading. The move also underscores Datavault AI's commitment to innovation in the Web3 space, as it seeks to provide comprehensive solutions for data monetization and asset tokenization.
