At PR Plug, this week has been full of momentum: answering new enquiries, scouting PR opportunities at upcoming industry events and continuing to spread the word about our mission to make PR accessible and impactful for startups, scaleups and established companies in Crypto, Web3, AI, Fintech, Forex and Prop Firms. Like many founders will recognise, it’s the classic startup rhythm: balancing growth conversations, mapping strategies and seizing visibility opportunities, all while keeping eyes on the bigger picture. With this in mind, our focus this week is on turning regulation into reputation…
Industry Pulse (with a PR Perspective)
Forex, Fintech & Prop Firms
Global regulation is tightening, with new rules reshaping leverage caps, licencing, and trader protections across Europe, the US and Asia.
Don’t just comply – communicate. Companies that address regulation openly in their messaging demonstrate trust, accountability, and long-term credibility, reassuring clients and attracting investors. By framing regulation as a strength through blogs, press releases, and community updates brands set themselves apart. Instead of “we have to,” the narrative becomes “we choose to lead.”
Crypto & Web3
Real-world asset (RWA) tokenisation is moving beyond hype, with institutions exploring tokenized bonds, commodities and real estate.
PR angle: Position your project as part of this larger movement by offering thought leadership on how tokenization creates value. Media and audiences look for expert commentary, not just updates. Step into that space before competitors do.
AI
AI adoption in fintech and trading is shifting from content creation to fraud detection, compliance and operational transparency.
PR angle: If your company is integrating AI responsibly, highlight it. Use case studies, press releases, or interviews to show not only the tech but the ethics behind it. That narrative positions your brand as innovative and trustworthy.
PR & Marketing Insight
The most successful companies in high-risk industries share one common thread: authentic communication. Whether it’s founder-led storytelling, timely media commentary, or transparency about regulatory changes, PR builds the trust that drives growth.
Community-driven marketing amplifies this effect. The brands breaking through aren’t just broadcasting updates – they’re inviting feedback and shaping narratives with their audiences.
Visibility Tip of the Week
Use timely commentary to your advantage. The fastest way to catch the eye of media outlets and potential partners is by offering expert takes on breaking news, whether it’s a regulation update, an AI milestone, or a crypto market shift.
