Strategic Acquisition Closes – Delivers Accretive Revenue Streams:
Enterprise-Grade Custodial, Specialized Crypto Trading and Security

TORONTO, March 29, 2018 /CNW/ – (TSXV: CPTO) CryptoGlobal Corp. has officially acquired Blockchain Dynamics Inc., a full service platform offering security, custodial services, trading and staking across a diversified base of cryptocurrencies.

Blockchain Dynamics provides enterprise-grade cold storage and crypto security solutions. The company also operates a specialized crypto trading desk to take advantage of trading opportunities across the entire universe of crypto currencies.

Pursuant to the transaction, CryptoGlobal has issued 21,661,636 common shares at a deemed value of $1.40 per share for a total transaction value of approximately $30 million. In connection with the transaction, CryptoGlobal also issued 400,260 incentive stock options to certain consultants and management of the company with an exercise price of $0.87 per share, with 266,840 options expiring 90 days from the closing of the transaction, and 133,420 options expiring five years from the closing of the transaction.

Blockchain Dynamics also brings exclusive custodial service arrangements, $3.1 million in cash and approximately over $500,000 in cryptocurrency holdings to CryptoGlobal. CryptoGlobal announced its agreement to acquire the company on March 1st, 2018 and the acquisition officially closed on March 29, 2018 upon completion of due diligence.

Building a Diverse Crypto EcoSystem
According to CryptoGlobal CEO Rob Segal, the Blockchain Dynamics acquisition will allow CryptoGlobal to securely store and trade its own crypto holdings and provide custodial services for institutional investors, exchanges and token holders.

“This strategic acquisition strengthens the company’s vision to build a leading FinTech company, underpinned by a diversified cryptocurrency mining operation with an ecosystem that includes custodial, crypto trading and insights,” says CryptoGlobal President James Millership.

Blockchain Dynamics is led by Chris McGarrigle, an encryption and cyber security specialist who has a 20 year track-record working with Europe’s biggest banks — as well as with clients in the energy and defense sectors. McGarrigle says the integration of Blockchain Dynamics’ diversified revenue streams may help insulate CryptoGlobal and its shareholders from the ups and downs of the digital currency market — by mitigating risk and optimizing reward — over the long-term.
