VANCOUVER, BC, Oct. 13, 2021 /PRNewswire/ - LQwD Fintech Corp. (TSXV: LQWD) (OTC: LQWDF), is pleased to announce that it has entered into a strategic services agreement with Netcoins Inc.

Mark Binns, BIGG's CEO, remarked, "As the only publicly owned and regulated crypto trading platform in Canada, becoming the liquidity partner for LQwD makes perfect sense. We can offer LQwD industry leading rates as an institutional customer, and bundle BitRank® and QLUE™ blockchain tech for a complete package. Correspondingly, we are thrilled to establish a node with LQwD on the fast-growing Lightning Network. "
