Tokens.com Partners with Genesis Global Trading on a Loan Facility

Tokens.com Corp. ( NEO:COIN) ( FSE:76M) (“Tokens.com” or the “Company”), a blockchain technology company that provides transaction processing and validation services for various digital assets that power Decentralized Finance (DeFi) applications and Non-Fungible Tokens (NFTs), is pleased to announce a collateralized loan facility with Genesis Global Trading (“Genesis”), a full-service digital currency prime broker and subsidiary of Digital Currency Group.

The loan will have an open term amount for an initial amount of approximately $2 million with an annual interest rate of 9.75%. Proceeds from the facility will be used to purchase additional digital assets to expand Tokens.com’s crypto staking operations.

“The current correction in the crypto markets has created opportunities to expand our crypto staking operations by purchasing additional tokens at attractive levels. We have chosen a premier institutional partner in Genesis to accomplish this strategic expansion. Genesis and the Digital Currency Group have established themselves as leaders with a reputation for excellence and professionalism and Tokens.com is proud to work with them,” said CEO Andrew Kiguel.

“We are pleased to support Tokens.com in growing their crypto staking operation and offering them financing on their staked digital assets,” commented Matt Ballensweig, Director of Institutional Lending at Genesis.

About Tokens.com

Tokens is a publicly-traded blockchain technology company that provides transaction processing and validation services for various digital assets that power Decentralized Finance (DeFi) applications and Non-Fungible Token (NFT) platforms. Tokens utilizes Proof-of-Stake (“PoS”) or Staking technology. DeFi is a new class of financial applications that provides users with automated and transparent financial services, such as borrowing and lending, without the need for financial institutions. NFTs are redefining how art, gaming, music and collectibles are created, valued and traded. Management believes that as mainstream adoption for DeFi and NFT applications grow, the need for Tokens.com’s Staking services will commensurately increase.

Tokens has agreements with industry leaders, Figment, Polychain Labs, Bison Trails, Staked and Coinbase Custody, to manage its staking operations and provide custodial services. Tokens’ management team includes seasoned blockchain and financial professionals with prior experience at Hut 8 Mining, Fidelity Investments, Galaxy Digital and Goldman Sachs. Tokens was formed in collaboration with Polychain Labs, an affiliate of Polychain Capital, which is one of the largest cryptocurrency venture capital firms in Silicon Valley. Current investors include Bitbuy Limited, First Block Capital, HIVE Blockchain Technologies Ltd., PowerOne Capital Group, Matthew Roszak (the co-founder and Chairman of Bloq, Inc.), and Olaf Carlson-Wee (the founder and CEO of Polychain Capital).

The Company’s common shares are listed under the symbol “COIN” on the NEO Exchange and as “76M” on the Frankfurt Stock Exchange.
