Product on Nordic Exchange

New exchange traded product ("ETP"), Valour Solana (SOL) SEK, will enable institutions and individuals to invest in the SOL token as easily as buying shares from their bank or broker
Trading in Valour Solana (SOL) SEK to begin on September 16th, 2021 on Nordic Growth Market stock exchange ("NGM").
TORONTO, Sept. 13, 2021 /CNW/ - Valour Inc. ("Valour"), a subsidiary of DeFi Technologies Inc. (the "Company" or "DeFi Technologies") (NEO:DEFI) (GR: RMJ.F) (OTC: DEFTF) and issuer of investment products focused on digital assets, has announced it will launch its Solana ETP (VALOUR SOLANA (SOL) SEK - CH1114178762) on the NGM. Trading in Valour Solana (SOL) SEK is expected to begin on September 16, 2021. The Valour Solana ETP enables investors to gain exposure to SOL, the native cryptocurrency in Solana's ecosystem, simply and securely, via their bank or broker.
Solana is the fastest blockchain in the world and the fastest growing ecosystem in the crypto universe, with more than 400 projects spanning DeFi, NFTs, Web3 and more. It currently sits is among the top ten cryptocurrencies in the world by market capitalization1, at USD $52.36 billion as of September 13th.
Solana is a programmable blockchain that can run multiple decentralized finance operations.

"The launch of the Valour Solana ETP is another achievement for our team in our mission to make the digital asset ecosystem accessible via mainstream channels," said Valour CEO Diana Biggs. "We've seen tremendous interest in the Solana ecosystem and this product is testament to the team's ability to rapidly respond to that demand, not only by bringing innovative products to market but the most cost-effective for investors. This is yet another major step for Valour and Defi Technologies as we continue to create not just revolutionary products but also shareholder value. With the Valour Solana ETP, and other innovative ETPs in the works, along with imminently listing our products on numerous other global exchanges we anticipate our AUM to grow rapidly."

By gaining exposure to digital assets via Valour, investors of DeFi Technologies benefit from the standardisation, risk reduction and operational efficiency of a centrally-cleared product listed on a regulated stock exchange. For each exchange traded product of Valour that is bought and sold on the stock exchange, Valour purchases or sells the equivalent amount of the underlying digital assets, meaning the products are fully backed at all times.

"Solana has gathered tremendous momentum in the broader blockchain community. It is great to see our team spotting this so rapidly by creating a new ETP such that public market investors can benefit from this nascent but growing protocol," said Wouter Witvoet, Chief Executive Officer, DeFi  Technologies.
