Thiqwave joins the Simplicity Accelerator

We are proud to announce that Thiqwave has been selected for the 2026 cohort of the Simplicity Accelerator, one of the most compelling Web3 accelerator programs operating today.

Simplicity Group has built a reputation for rigorous, evidence-based work across tokenomics, go-to-market strategy, and ecosystem development, backing some of the most recognized projects in digital assets.

Out of a competitive applicant pool, fifteen projects were selected for this cohort. Thiqwave is the only stablecoin settlement infrastructure company among them.

Why Simplicity

When we evaluated accelerators and incubator programs earlier this year, we had clear criteria. We needed a program that understood infrastructure-stage companies, offered hands-on operational support rather than passive mentorship, and could connect us to the right investors and ecosystem partners at the right time.

Simplicity checked every box. The program runs six intensive weeks, and the education is delivered by established, market-leading companies. And the venture network — Animoca Brands, Borderless Capital, DWF Ventures, Psalion, and others — culminates in a pitch competition judged by top-tier VCs who have committed capital specifically for this cohort.

"Thiqwave is solving one of the most fundamental infrastructure gaps in the MENA digital asset ecosystem. Lukasz and Ahmed combine deep regional banking experience with strong technical execution, and that is exactly the kind of founding team we want in this cohort. We are excited to support their growth over the coming weeks."
— Alex Fatuliaj, Simplicity Group

The Cohort

What made this program particularly compelling for us was the cohort itself. The fifteen selected projects span tokenized loyalty, RWA infrastructure, DeFi protocols, prediction markets, on-chain capital allocation, AI-powered data intelligence, and operational security.

These are the exact categories of platforms that Thiqwave's settlement API is designed to serve. We are building alongside future customers and integration partners.

What this means for us

Thiqwave is building the settlement layer that connects fiat banking rails to stablecoin networks across the GCC and MENA region via single API, compliantly and at scale.

Joining Simplicity gives us three things at a critical moment: a dense network of ecosystem builders to validate and integrate with, institutional-grade guidance on legal, go-to-market, and fundraising strategy, and direct access to active capital that understands digital asset infrastructure.

Over the next six weeks, we will be heads-down: refining our product, deepening design partner relationships, and preparing for the pitch competition that closes out the program.

We look forward to sharing what comes next.
