VANCOUVER, British Columbia, Sept. 06, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Spirit Blockchain Capital Inc. (the “Company” or “Spirit”), a Canadian company that offers shareholders diversified exposure to the Blockchain and crypto industry, is pleased to announce that it has invested in AVAX and has set up its own validator node to help secure the Avalanche network.

Avalanche is one of the world’s most decentralized high-performance blockchains and continues to experience rapid growth. The Avalanche network is a Proof-of-Stake (PoS) smart contract platform that is focused on scalability and offers fast transaction completion. The innovative Layer 1 protocol is one of the leading Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM) compatible chains. The protocol’s unique consensus mechanism requires validators and subnets to stake AVAX – the blockchain’s native token.

AVAX locked in decentralized finance (DeFi) applications has continued to rise, highlighting the growth and resilience of the Avalanche ecosystem despite the recent fall in crypto asset prices. In the second quarter of 2022, the network has also seen an upward trend in the number of validators and delegation, healthy developer activity as well as the successful launch of a long-awaited gaming subnet, to name a few positive trends.

By becoming an active validator of the Avalanche network, SPIRIT plans to be a long-term supporter of the blockchain, contributing to decentralization and participating in protocol governance. In return for staking its AVAX tokens, SPIRIT will receive annual rewards of approximately 9%. Furthermore 3^rd parties can delegate their AVAX tokens to the SPIRIT validator node, for which SPIRIT earns a commission.

Spirit is a Canadian-Swiss group operating in the blockchain and digital asset sectors with the primary objective of creating value in a fast-growing environment through recurring cash flows and capital growth.

Spirit gives investors direct exposure to the sector, without the technical complexity or limitations of buying and holding the underlying crypto assets. Spirit’s strategy is based on management’s belief that the blockchain and digital asset ecosystem will provide significant growth and outperform traditional asset classes in the medium to long term.

The company’s strategy focuses on four complementary financial units:

• Royalties & Streams by lending capital to blockchain ecosystem participants, where repayment of the nominal and interest occurs in the form of crypto-assets;
• Consultancy and research services;
• Treasury management through investment in large crypto-assets with cold storage in Switzerland; and
• Deliver IT solutions to the sector within the areas of Compliance, AML, Forensics and Risk Reporting.

Spirit’s common stock (the “Stock“) has been approved for listing on the Canadian Securities Exchange (“CSE“), subject to customary listing conditions. The Company expects the shares to begin trading in September 2022 and will update the market pending confirmation of a listing date by the CSE.
