DeFi Technologies Announces Initial Shyft Network Node Earnings

DeFi Technologies Inc. (NEO: DEFI) (GR: RMJR) (OTC: DEFTF) has announced that its Shyft Network Node has earned over 300,000 Shyft tokens in less than two months and expects to create roughly 6800 Shyft tokens every day or 2,482,000 Shyft tokens per year. On the Shyft Network, the private, semi-permissioned blockchain designed to embed trust, validation, and discoverability into public and private ecosystems, the Company is running a validator.

The Shyft Network protocol is a transformative intraoperative solution that allows for identity verification, validation, and the transmission of credentials and other data across many blockchains and networks. The protocol was created to assist VASPs, brokers, and financial institutions in achieving complete compliance with the Travel Rule, which was defined globally by the Financial Action Task Force in 2019 and to reduce friction in the deployment of technological compliance solutions for virtual assets.

DeFi Technologies makes money by operating a node on the Shyft Network, which secures and validates transactions. DeFi Technologies receives transaction fees on the network as well as the Shyft Network token issuance in exchange for providing the service. The earnings created by running this node on the Shyft network will be used to assist fund the development of Shyft network products, as well as a variety of additional efforts such as providing market liquidity and developing institutional trading solutions, among others.

DeFi Technologies is currently running one Shyft node. DeFi Technologies has generated over 300,000 Shyft Tokens in July and August of 2021. Shyft Tokens have a current network price of $1.05.

Tokens.com Shares Positive Outlook on Ethereum Merge

Tokens.com Corp. (NEO Exchange Canada: COIN)(Frankfurt Stock Exchange: 76M) (OTCQB US: SMURF) (“Tokens.com” or the “Company”), a publicly-traded company that invests in Web3 assets and builds businesses linked to crypto staking, the metaverse and play-to-earn gaming, shares its positive outlook on the upcoming Ethereum Merge and the impact to its staking business segment.

Ethereum, the most widely used blockchain for NFTs and Web3 metaverses, will be making a significant processing upgrade on or about September 15th. The upgrade, called the ‘Merge’, marks the transition from a proof-of-work mechanism, performed by crypto miners, to a proof-of-stake mechanism, performed by crypto stakers.

The upgrade will require 99.9% less energy consumption to validate transactions than the previous mining process. As a result, the Ethereum blockchain will no longer require miners, who will be fully replaced by stakers, like Tokens.com. The upgrade will also allow Ethereum to achieve greater scale, with faster transaction speeds and lower transaction fees. Ethereum’s native token, ETH, is the second largest cryptocurrency after Bitcoin with a market capitalization of approximately $200 billion.

Tokens.com has been staking ETH at scale since early 2021 and owns over 3,100 ETH. Tokens.com anticipates no impact to its operations through the completion of the Merge other than increased revenues. Subsequent to the Merge, it is expected that the compensation for staking ETH will increase from current levels.

“We have been early adopters of the shift to staking and are one of the first public companies to own and stake ETH at scale,” said Andrew Kiguel, CEO of Tokens.com. “Long-term mass adoption of Web3 and crypto requires a move to environmentally friendly processes. As a result, we have continued staking Ethereum, Solana, Polkadot and other layer one blockchains used in the creation of NFTs, metaverses and play-to-earn video games.”

Tokens.com is committed to only investing in tokens compatible with a staking platform due to its increased energy efficiency and environmental friendliness. In addition to its ETH token ownership, Tokens.com owns Polkadot and Solana used for its staking business, amongst other tokens.
