Creatd Announces Application for Dual Listing on Blockchain-Powered Securities Exchange, Upstream

NEW YORK, Nov. 7, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Creatd, Inc. (OTCQB: CRTD) ("Creatd" or the "Company," a creator-first company, today announced that it has begun the application process to dual-list its shares on Upstream, the premier global exchange and trading app for digital securities and NFTs powered by Horizon Fintex ("Horizon") and MERJ Exchange Limited ("MERJ").

The Company's proposed listing on Upstream is expected to facilitate access to a global, digital-first investor base that can trade using USDC digital currency along with credit, debit, PayPal, and USD, unlocking liquidity and enhancing price discovery while globalizing the opportunity to invest in Creatd ahead of its anticipated application to re-list on a national exchange.

Commenting on the dual-listing strategy, Jeremy Frommer, CEO of Creatd, said, "Upholding transparency is what will drive the next stage of evolution in the public markets. Upstream is uniquely leading this charge by combining the best available technology with enforcement practices that together work to protect and empower issuer and investor alike. We are pursuing Creatd's dual-listing as part of a broader effort to realize the true value of our stock. Looking ahead, we are enthusiastic about the other potential opportunities to leverage Upstream, including its potential utility for the proposed spin-off of our OG Collection media library and other monetizable assets."

Approval to be listed on Upstream is subject to approval by MERJ.
