TORONTO, May 20, 2021 /PRNewswire/ - DeFi Technologies Inc. (the "Company" or "DeFi Technologies") (NEO: DEFI, GR: RMJR, OTC: DEFTF) announces that its wholly owned subsidiary, Valour Structured Products, has experienced record trading in Cardano (ADA) ETP (VALOUR CARDANO SEK - CH1114178796) on the NGM stock exchange in its first day of listing.

Cardano is an open-source, proof-of-stake blockchain platform which facilitates decentralized applications and peer-to-peer transactions via its native token, ADA. With a research driven approach and focus on the security, scalability, ESG compliance and programmability, Cardano's development has been propelled in the past year. This, and increasing interest in the efficiency of proof-of-stake blockchains, has seen the ADA token move to the fourth largest digital asset by market capitalization in the past week.

Wouter Witvoet, CEO of Defi Technologies comments "It's been tremendously exciting to see such clear market adoption of yet another novel exchange traded product. It shows that making investments in DeFi protocols easier is what people have been waiting for. I cannot be more excited about Valour's upcoming Polkadot launch and other products that are in the pipeline to add to our vision of removing barriers to entry when it comes to investing in decentralized finance."

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

About the Cardano ETP

Valour Cardano SEK (ISIN: CH1114178796) is a fully-hedged, passive investment product with Cardano's native token, ADA, as its underlying assets. The new Valour ETP,  available in Swedish krona, are traded on the NGM, a regulated stock exchange in Stockholm, Sweden, under local ticker VALOUR CARDANO SEK. Available for purchase via banks or brokers in the same way as any other security, Valour's ETPs remove the mystery, complexity and costs of ADA investment and custody that have thus far impeded mainstream adoption of digital assets and decentralised finance.
