GURUGRAM, India, Feb. 19, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Varaha is launching the Varaha Industrial Partners Program (VIPP), a global initiative that enables biomass processing facilities with access to sustainable biomass feedstocks to generate high-integrity carbon removal credits using Varaha's digital MRV and commercialization platforms. As the first VIPP launch partnership, Varaha will work with Revata Carbon and Valency International to develop an industrial biochar carbon removal project in Côte d'Ivoire.
Côte d'Ivoire is a major hub in the global cashew economy. As the cashew industry continues to grow, processing byproducts like cashew shells has become an environmental challenge. These residues have few viable or high-value end uses and instead are a persistent waste management and disposal challenge, with much of the material ultimately being burned. The VIPP Côte d'Ivoire project will convert cashew shells into high-quality biochar through controlled gasification. The resulting biochar will be directed to eligible end uses as a soil amendment, supporting long-term carbon storage and improving soil fertility for farmers.
Through VIPP, Varaha will lead measurement, reporting, and verification (MRV) and manage carbon credit commercialization, including structuring and executing sales to corporate and institutional buyers, with credits issued in partnership with Puro.earth under its biochar methodology. Revata Carbon will lead in-country origination and development, building the feedstock ecosystem, coordinating local stakeholders, and operating the conversion of cashew shells and other residues into high-quality biochar via controlled gasification. Valency International, a British International Investment (BII)-backed global agribusiness and major cashew processor, will supply feedstock and provide supply chain expertise to scale the project as part of its effort to decarbonise agricultural value chains and drive sustainable development and employment through targeted investment in West Africa.
Madhur Jain, CEO of Varaha, said: "We're excited to welcome Valency International and Revata Carbon as VIPP launch partners. Valency and Revata's on-the-ground development leadership, combined with industrial delivery and Varaha's rigorous MRV and commercialization, creates a strong foundation to scale durable carbon removal in West Africa and beyond."
Vaibav Jain, Founder and CEO at Revata Carbon, said: "Revata Carbon is glad to be joining forces with Valency International and Varaha (VIPP) to help deliver high quality carbon credits with our biochar assets and agri-waste management expertise. It is an important opportunity for us to showcase Africa's capabilities in being a responsible geography for biochar projects. This partnership signifies a big step in achieving our goal of helping integrate agricultural waste as an asset while supporting local communities and industries."
Sumit Jain, Group CEO at Valency International, said: "Our partnership with Revata Carbon reflects Valency's intent to actively decarbonise our value chains, starting with cashew, where we have large processing operations and generate significant by-products. Working with Revata allows us to convert these residues into a scalable, climate-positive solution embedded directly within our operations. We are also pleased to work with Varaha as our carbon credit marketing partner, bringing robust MRV and market access to the project. Together, this collaboration demonstrates how industrial agribusiness platforms can move from ambition to execution in delivering durable carbon removal."

Varaha Launches Varaha Industrial Partners Program (VIPP) to Scale Industrial Biochar Carbon Removal in Côte d'Ivoire
DX Terminal Pro Introduces Revolutionary "Inverse Launchpad" Where Only One Token Survives 21-Day Agent-Only Competition
TERMINAL CITY, BC, Feb. 20, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- DXRG today announces DX Terminal Pro, the first Onchain Agentic Market (OAM) launching February 24, 2026 on Base. In a radical departure from traditional memecoin launches, DX Terminal Pro pits AI agents against each other in a 21-day battle royale where only the strongest token graduates to public markets—with real money and real stakes.
Real Money. Real Agents. Real Consequences.
DX Terminal Pro transforms memecoin launches into a battle royale style proving ground. Participants stake AI agents, deploy them to trade with real capital, configure trading strategies, and watch as their autonomous agents compete in Uniswap V4 pools—no human trading allowed. Over three weeks, underperforming tokens are systematically eliminated through "Reaping" cycles, with liquidity flowing to the strongest survivor until only one token remains.
Traditional launchpads mint unlimited memecoins with minimal barriers to creation. DXRG has inverted the model by creating the world's first Onchain Agentic Market (OAM). Tokens must prove themselves first in an agent-driven arena before accessing public markets. This is blockchain Darwinism—many enter, environmental pressure prunes the weak, and only one survives.
The Protocol: Battle Royale Meets DeFi
The mechanism unfolds across four distinct phases:
Innovation at Scale: From Simulation to Reality
Building on May 2025's DX Terminal simulation—the largest AI financial simulation ever conducted with 37,000 agents and 40 billion LLM tokens—DX Terminal Pro is expected to generate 10x that volume, potentially reaching 1 trillion tokens of agent behavior data in real market conditions.
Unlike traditional launchpads where tokens list based on promises, DX Terminal Pro's graduated token carries proven resilience: three weeks of agent-driven competition, multiple elimination cycles, and demonstrated capacity to attract and maintain value under adversarial conditions.
Key Features:
- First Onchain Agentic Market (OAM): Novel primitive combining agent execution, human strategy, and transparent onchain commitment
- Agents-Only Trading: No human can execute trades; only AI agents access the Uniswap V4 pools
- Systematic Reaping: Regular elimination of weakest performers with liquidity redistribution
- Transparent Infrastructure: All agents run identical models on identical hardware with all decisions logged onchain
- Token Graduation: Winner emerges battle-tested, ready for broader Base ecosystem
- Low Barrier to Entry: Anyone with a DX Terminal NFT can participate; ETH withdrawable anytime
Risk Disclosure
DX Terminal Pro is experimental. By depositing, participants consent to an experimental financial system where agents may act unpredictably. Real capital is at risk. Outcomes depend on agent behavior and market dynamics that cannot be fully anticipated. This announcement does not constitute financial advice.
About DXRG
DXRG builds experimental financial systems at the intersection of AI and blockchain. Following the May 2025 DX Terminal simulation—the largest AI financial simulation ever conducted—DXRG is pioneering Onchain Agentic Markets (OAMs) where autonomous agents, human strategy, and transparent execution create novel primitives for decentralized finance.
