Dear Hacken Community, Partners and Friends,
Today marks eight years since Hacken was founded, and I could not be more proud of what we have built together. We are no longer a startup. Hacken is now a global brand, trusted by the world’s leading blockchain projects, regulators, and enterprises.
1️⃣ A New Era for Hacken
For eight years, we have evolved alongside this industry. We have exposed bad actors, set standards, and proven that vision backed by action can change the world.
Now it’s time to set bigger goals, with the right people fully accountable for achieving them.
Every change we are making today is about clarity, accountability, and scale.
🔹 Hacken: new global and regional leadership to accelerate expansion.
🔹 HackenProof: true independence with legal ownership for its team.
🔹 Hacken Federation Network: the first legal innovation of decentralized cybersecurity companies.
🔹 HAI Group: a fully new structure – a financial instrument that represents the entire Hacken ecosystem and returns value to HAI holders.
2️⃣ Hacken Federation Network
To accelerate Hacken’s global expansion, we are making one of the most significant structural changes in our history:
Yevheniia Broshevan, Hacken Co-Founder and Chief Business Development Officer, is stepping into the role of CEO of Hacken.
If you’ve worked with Hacken, you already know
@jerh17. She is the reason we secured many of our biggest clients. She has been at the heart of our growth since the very first brainstorm in 2017. Beyond that, Yev is a cybersecurity expert with 12 years of experience, including a deep and growing interest in AI security. She has the trust of the team, the respect of our partners, and a clear and steady vision for what Hacken should be. I cannot imagine a better person to lead this company forward.
3️⃣ My New Role: Building HAI Group
We are creating a completely new corporate structure – the first of its kind in crypto.
It will be called HAI Group, structured as a Crypto IPO-ready holding company. HAI Group will own part of Hacken Services and all of our industry-grade products.
Design for scale, fundraising and IPO
🔹 We will tokenize the holding company itself – a model never done before in crypto.
🔹 This security token will give HAI holders direct access to the growth and success of the entire Hacken ecosystem, uniting all B2B and B2C utilities in one instrument.
🔹 We will spin out major products as independent legal entities, giving their teams ownership stakes and the ability to raise capital directly.
🔹 HAI Group will remain the major shareholder, aligning everyone behind the same long-term vision.
What This Means
▫️ Hacken will be laser-focused on scaling as a global cybersecurity leader, led by Yev and regional CEOs.
▫️ We will build a Hacken Federation Network of independent partner-led firms in North America, MENA, Europe, and beyond. Think Deloitte’s global scaling model, but with HAI as the security token at its core.
▫️
@HackenProof will become an independent entity, unlocking its full fundraising potential and innovation capacity.
▫️ HAI Group will hold part of Hacken and all of our products, giving B2B and B2C stakeholders access to its success through a security token.
4️⃣ My Focus
As a co-founder and major shareholder, I take the non-executive role of Hacken Chairman as well as CEO of HAI Group. My goal is to build a network of independent entities under HAI Group, designed for tokenization, fundraising, and going public.
I will also play a big role in a new product we’ve envisioned for years but never had the space to fully bring to life. It will stand at the intersection of DeFi, insurance, fintech, and AI, built on the foundation of
CER.live, TrustArmy, and hAI app. This will be a product the entire industry will come to rely on.
I will share more in due time. But know this: it is going to change how security, risk, and trust operate in Web3.
Thank you to everyone who has supported Hacken on this journey – our clients, partners, community, and the thousands of HAI holders who believed in our vision from day one.
The next era starts now
