Church Leaders Join Mayor Linda Aitken in Prayer for WA's Fastest Growing City

2026-06-12 15:04 Last Updated At:15:25

PERTH, Australia, June 12, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Church leaders from across the City of Wanneroo gathered with Mayor Linda Aitken on Friday 12 June for the Wanneroo Prayer Breakfast, held at the Wanneroo Civic Centre, coming together to pray for the city and hear first-hand about the challenges facing Western Australia's fastest growing community.

The City of Wanneroo is the fastest growing local government area in Western Australia, taking in 36 suburbs stretching from Koondoola and Alexander Heights in the south to Yanchep and Two Rocks in the north. As the region grows, so do the pressures on households and neighbourhoods — and the breakfast focused on how churches and local government can work together to address the challenges facing people across the city and serve their neighbours.

Mayor Aitken thanked church leaders for their contribution to the community, telling Bruce Chant, who leads Kingdomcity's Butler campus:

"Thank you for all the work you're doing to add value to the City of Wanneroo. It's great to see the churches engaging with the community. We are so happy with our partnership with churches like Kingdomcity to serve the people in our city."

In her address, the Mayor called for a united effort across her city.

"We are all encouraged to lift people up, loving one another, caring for our community. Together, we must make a lasting difference," she said.

Nick Scott, who led Mt Pleasant Baptist Church for 29 years, spoke about the unity among Christian churches across the city and their shared commitment to working together for its people, while Ben Gould of the Love Our Suburb initiative from C3 Hepburn Heights closed the gathering by praying a blessing over the people of the city.

Troy Anderson from Kingdomcity in Wangara said the breakfast reflected a genuine sense of hope for the region.

"It was amazing to see leaders and people from different churches and denominations come together to pray for our city," Pastor Anderson said. "Moments like this remind us that we're stronger when we work together. I love being part of what God is doing in our community, and I believe as we continue to serve, love people and bring hope, we'll see lasting change across our city."

Kingdomcity's Wangara and Butler campuses serve communities across the City of Wanneroo and form part of the church's seven campuses across Perth.

ISLAMABAD, June 12, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Binance Exchange today announced the admission to trading of bStocks, fully-backed tokenized securities representing select U.S. stocks issued by BTech Holdings Limited, a Binance group affiliate ("Issuer"). Eligible users can trade bStocks 24/7 and hold on Binance, self-custody them through BNB Chain-compatible wallets, and use them across supported DeFi applications.

At launch, the first bStocks listings will be Circle Internet Group (CRCLB/USDT), Micron Technology (MUB/USDT), NVIDIA (NVDAB/USDT), Sandisk (SNDKB/USDT), and Tesla (TSLAB/USDT). SpaceX (SPCXB/USDT) is planned for trading, pending SpaceX's public listing on Nasdaq, with additional bStocks admission for trading on Binance Exchange to be announced progressively.

First previewed in Binance's recent announcement introducing U.S. equities trading, bStocks combines traditional investing with the flexibility of on-chain transferability. The launch also advances Binance's mission to democratize access to financial opportunities across asset classes and market stages — from private-market exposure through Pre-IPO perpetuals, to public equities, to tokenized real-world assets.

Users can convert between supported underlying equities (purchased through Binance's broker-dealer entity Nest Trading Limited) and bStocks at a 1:1 ratio with zero conversion fees. With fractional shares starting from as little as $5, bStocks makes investing more accessible.

The launch of bStocks follows regulatory approval of the Issuer's prospectuses by the ADGM's Financial Services Regulatory Authority. bStocks are designed as a Certificate over select U.S. stocks and ETFs. Each bStock is backed 1:1 by a corresponding underlying share held with a regulated custodian.

"Early demand for stocks trading on Binance shows that users want more flexible ways to access traditional markets," said Richard Teng, co-CEO of Binance. "bStocks are the next step in that evolution, bringing real-world assets on-chain while giving users greater portability and self-custody. As tokenization gains momentum, Binance is helping bridge traditional finance and crypto infrastructure in a way that is simple, secure, and user-driven."

As standard BEP-20 tokens on BNB Chain, bStocks are compatible with wallets and on-chain applications across the ecosystem, with planned integrations to be announced progressively.

Corporate actions such as stock splits and dividend-related adjustments are processed automatically, helping users maintain continuous exposure without requiring manual action.

Binance is offering zero maker fees for the initial bStocks trading pairs for a limited time. This applies to MUB/USDT from 2026-06-11 17:00 UTC to 2026-08-31 23:59 UTC, and to CRCLB/USDT, NVDAB/USDT, SNDKB/USDT and TSLAB/USDT from 2026-06-11 18:00 UTC to 2026-08-31 23:59 UTC, subject to applicable terms and conditions.
