TORONTO, March 30, 2022 /PRNewswire/ – DeFi Technologies Inc. (the “Company” or “DeFi Technologies”) (NEO: DEFI) (GR: RMJR) (OTC: DEFTF), a technology company bridging the gap between traditional capital markets and decentralized finance, announced today that its wholly owned subsidiary, Valour Inc.

Valour recently unveiled two new products: the Valour Avalanche (AVAX) ETP and Valour Terra (LUNA) ETP.

“Since listing our first product, Bitcoin Zero, on the Nordic Growth Market just over a year ago we have seen an incredible reception to our ETP offerings,” said Russell Starr, CEO of DeFi Technologies. “We are still in a very early growth stage and our team has done a tremendous job of planting seeds for future growth by launching eight ETPs across several exchanges in Europe that enable individuals and institutions to invest in digital assets simply and securely. With more product launches, new exchange listings, a digital asset backed program and our joint ETP venture with SEBA Bank AG we are very excited for the Company’s growth trajectory in 2022 and the years to come.”
