DeFi Technologies Inc.’s Wholly Owned Subsidiary Valour Inc. Launches 3 New Products on NGM

| ● | DeFi Technologies' subsidiary, Valour Inc., introduces three EUR denominated products on NGM: Valour Ethereum Zero EUR, Valour Solana EUR and Valour Digital Asset Basket 10 (VDAB10) EUR. The products are available for trading as of 25/08/2023.

Zug, Switzerland and Toronto, Canada, August 29, 2023 - DeFi Technologies Inc. (the “Company” or “DeFi Technologies”) (NEO: DEFI) (GR: RB9) (OTC: DEFTF), a crypto native technology company that pioneers the convergence of traditional capital markets with the world of decentralised finance (“DeFi”), is excited to announce that its subsidiary Valour Inc. (“Valour”), a leading issuer of exchange traded products (“ETPs”) that provide simplified access to digital assets, has launched three euro-denominated products on NGM - Valour Ethereum Zero EUR (ISIN: CH1149139623), Valour Solana EUR (ISIN: CH1114178838) and Valour Digital Asset Basket 10 (VDAB10) EUR (ISIN: CH1149139623).

“After the exciting launch of our newest product in the Nordics, the VDAB10 SEK ETP, a diversified digital asset basket, it is only natural to offer this innovative and dynamic product to investors that prefer trading in Euro.” said Johanna Belitz, Head of Sales France and Nordics. “Similarly, simplifying access to our excellent Ethereum Zero EUR product to Nordic investors is a natural step in our expansion in the Nordics. The absence of a management fee in this product makes it extraordinary in its performance. As with funds, management fees are as important a factor as potential yields when making a choice on where to invest your capital.”

“Through the introduction of these three innovative products, we are strengthening our robust market stance within the Nordic region. Valour's deep-rooted associations with Sweden, from a historical and corporate standpoint, synergize with our latest product range to streamline cryptocurrency asset accessibility also to the Finnish investment community.” Said Johan Wattenström, Founder and Director of Valour.

About the products:

Valour Ethereum Zero EUR precisely tracks the price of ETH without charging management fees, making an investment in the world’s second largest digital asset easier, more secure and more cost-effective than all other options.

Valour Solana EUR precisely tracks the price of SOL, the native cryptocurrency fuelling the Solana network. Marketed as one the fastest blockchains, Solana has more than 400 live projects spanning its DeFi, NFT, and Web3 ecosystem. Valour's Solana ETP makes an investment in this leading decentralised platform cost-effective, simpler and more secure.

Valour Digital Asset Basket 10 (VDAB10) tracks the performance of the top 10 largest crypto assets based on market capitalisation with a maximum cap of 30% for any constituent. Valour’s VDAB10 ETP provides investors with a diversified and dynamic exposure to the ever evolving crypto landscape in a trusted and secure manner.

The new products are available for trading as of 25/08/2023 through online brokers such as Avanza and Nordnet.

In addition to its novel digital asset platform, which includes 1Valour Ethereum Physical Staking ETP and 1Valour Bitcoin Physical Carbon Neutral ETP, Valour offers fully hedged digital asset ETPs with low to zero management fees, with product listings across European exchanges, banks and broker platforms.
