Lipa, Batangas, Philippines, September 15, 2025 — Hive Modular, a leader in sustainable prefabricated housing solutions, has officially completed its Casita X model unit in Lipa, Batangas.

Designed with flexibility in mind, the unit will provide prospective clients, partners, and guests with a tangible experience of Hive’s signature style, blending eco-conscious design, efficiency, and premium comfort.
Earlier this year, Hive Modular launched its Casita X line of modular homes in a pop-up showroom exhibit at One Bonifacio High Street, which ran from February to March. The exhibit introduced thousands of visitors to the possibilities of modular housing, generating strong interest from both private homeowners and institutional players in the hospitality industry.

By operating simultaneously as a model house and luxury vacation rental, the unit offers potential buyers and partners the chance to see firsthand how modular living works in a real-world hospitality setting.
“The Casita X is not only a showcase of design and sustainability but also a real-world demonstration of how modular living redefines hospitality,” said John Avrett, Founder & CEO, Hive Modular. “From our pop-up in BGC to this permanent model in Batangas, we are proving that modular housing is more than a concept. It is a viable solution for supporting world-class hospitality and tourism in the Philippines.”
Hive Modular’s expansion in Batangas coincides with its active participation in key industry events. On September 17, 2025, the company will take part in the 8th Hospitality Philippines Conference, a premier gathering of hotel operators, developers, and innovators in the hospitality space, as a technical keynote participant. Hive Modular’s Founder and CEO is set to deliver a keynote address that will showcase the company’s expertise in sustainable housing solutions and demonstrate how modular construction can support the industry’s demand for scalable, high-quality accommodations.
This participation underscores Hive Modular’s mission to integrate sustainability with hospitality innovation, at a time when the Philippine tourism sector is rapidly rebounding. The company aims to redefine how resorts and accommodations are built, offering developers and operators a partner who can deliver faster, smarter, and greener solutions without compromising quality or design.

Bitget, the leading cryptocurrency exchange and Web3 company, is excited to share its strategic collaboration with its trusted ecosystem project Morph, the EVM layer for payments and onchain consumer finance. The duo has signed up to boost BGB’s utility across a multitude of projects.
With this partnership, Bitget will transfer all BGB tokens that it controls, 440 million in total, to the Morph Foundation. Half of this allocation, 220 million BGB, will be burned in a single action, while the remaining 220 million BGB tokens will be locked and released at 2% per month to fund liquidity incentives, use case expansion, and education. Morph will become the native onchain home of BGB and serve as the core settlement layer for more than 120 million users worldwide, with BGB established as the gas and governance token of an improved high-performance network.
Building the Standard for Onchain Payments
The Morph chain will maintain its brand, team, and strategic direction, staying focused on its positioning as a Layer 2 dedicated to crypto payments, and striving to become the next-generation Web3 payment infrastructure, advancing beyond cost efficiency and performance toward real-world consumer finance at scale, with integrations across wallets, DeFi, stablecoins, and global payment providers.
“With this commitment to the Morph Foundation, BGB is entering a new chapter as the gas and governance token of Morph. This upgrade expands BGB into the utility token for the next era of onchain consumer finance, powering payments, applications, and the broader settlement layer for millions of users worldwide,” said Gracy Chen, CEO of Bitget.
Expanding BGB with Morph
BGB will become the primary token of Morph’s blockchain, serving as the gas, governance, and payment token across the layer. Settlement and PayFi activity will run through BGB alongside stablecoins, giving it a central role in powering the Morph network. Meanwhile, BGB will continue to collaborate with existing partners, including Bitget, MEXC, and Bitfinex, where BGB is already listed, and others beyond these exchanges, serving as a key medium for Launchpool’s new token mining, fee discounts, and more.
Moving forward, The Morph Foundation, a decentralized non-profit organisation, will be solely responsible for BGB’s long-term development roadmap, co-building the ecosystem with the community. It will also update BGB’s burn mechanism to link directly to the Morph network activity until the total supply is reduced to 100 million.
“Morph has always had a close relationship with Bitget since its founding. There are projects we have always dreamed of collaborating on, but much of our growth so far has been autonomous. Through this strategic initiative, we are excited for Morph to become the home of Bitget’s onchain initiatives and to support the millions of BGB holders around the world.” Colin Goltra, CEO of Morph, added.
Growing Decentralized Ecosystem at Scale
To support the long-term prosperity of Morph, Bitget and Bitget Wallet will bring their full infrastructures directly into Morph, consolidating payment, trading, and ecosystem services around the chain. This includes native support for stablecoin issuers, regional currencies, and global payment providers, giving developers and merchants an unmatched foundation to build decentralized payment-focused applications at scale.
Morph Rails will serve as the backbone of this expansion, powering hackathons, builder programs, and direct support for new projects. Developers building on Morph will gain access to Bitget’s and Bitget Wallet’s base of more than 120 million users, connecting their applications with one of the largest onchain audiences in the world. With Bitget’s backing, Morph is positioned to become the settlement hub for the next generation of PayFi and consumer finance.
“BGB has found its home onchain with Morph, marking a new chapter in its journey. We are thrilled to invite millions of users to experience BGB and find utility in entirely new ways. Over the next 12 months, we will see an acceleration of BGB migration onto Morph Layer and deeper partnerships between Morph and Bitget Wallet to enable seamless web3 payments and onchain consumer finance,” said Karry Cheung, CEO of Bitget Wallet.

Boost leadership and efficiency with PetroSync API Training. Stay ahead of competitors and lead your team with confidence.
Why Standing Still Means Falling Behind
Imagine this: your competitor has just enrolled their team in an advanced API training. Within months, their operations run smoother, their inspection cycles shorten, and their clients start noticing the difference. Meanwhile, your team still relies on outdated practices. In today’s oil and gas landscape, standing still is no longer safe—it’s equivalent to moving backward.
Your competitors aren’t waiting. They’re investing in knowledge, sharpening their expertise, and positioning themselves as trusted leaders in the industry. If you don’t take the same steps, the risk isn’t just lost productivity—it’s losing your market share.
Turning Knowledge into Leadership
Enrolling in PetroSync’s API Training isn’t just about earning certifications—it’s about equipping yourself and your team with the skills that transform technical knowledge into leadership. When you can confidently guide your team, make informed decisions, and anticipate challenges before they escalate, you become the kind of leader others want to follow.
Think of the impact: instead of second-guessing inspection processes, your engineers act decisively. Instead of delays caused by uncertainty, your projects move forward with clarity and confidence. This shift doesn’t just elevate your technical performance; it redefines how others perceive your leadership.
And if you want to expand beyond API basics, PetroSync also offers specialized programs such as API 653 training, API 571 training, API 570 training, and API 510 training. Each course builds your credibility and widens your influence across critical areas of inspection and reliability.
From Efficiency to Cost Savings—The Competitive Edge
Let’s talk about results. Businesses that invest in training and smart tools experience measurable improvements. According to industry studies:
Teams with advanced training show up to 20% higher productivity, as employees perform with clarity and confidence.
Enhanced knowledge improves operational efficiency by 15–25%, reducing unnecessary downtime and rework.
Companies adopting smart technologies, including AI chatbots for knowledge support, have reported cost savings of 30% in administrative and communication overheads.
Now imagine combining expert training with these efficiency-driven practices. You don’t just keep pace—you set the standard. And when clients see your ability to deliver reliably and cost-effectively, your business naturally becomes their first choice.
Secure Your Place Before Competitors Do
Opportunities don’t wait. Every time you postpone upskilling your team, your competitors get one step ahead. The leaders of tomorrow are the ones investing in knowledge today.
By joining PetroSync’s API Training, you’re not just learning technical codes—you’re building a foundation of trust, efficiency, and confidence that your competitors will struggle to match. The question isn’t whether you can afford to invest—it’s whether you can afford not to.
So, are you ready to step forward with confidence before the opportunity slips away?
About PetroSync Global Internasional
PetroSync was established in Singapore in 2010 and began its expansion into Indonesia in 2013. To this day, PetroSync has become a leading oil and gas training provider, with a participant passing rate as high as 90%.
