TORONTO, Nov. 14, 2024 /PRNewswire/ - DeFi Technologies Inc. (the "Company" or "DeFi Technologies") (CBOE CA: DEFI) (GR: R9B) (OTC: DEFTF), a crypto-native technology company at the forefront of merging traditional capital markets with decentralized finance ("DeFi"), is pleased to announce the launch of CoreFi Strategy Corp ("CoreFi Strategy"). Modeled after MicroStrategy and MetaPlanet's successful approaches, CoreFi Strategy offers a regulated, leveraged pathway to Bitcoin yield and CORE—the native asset of the Core blockchain, designed to unlock sustainable Bitcoin yield and other key functions.

CoreFi Strategy (www.corefistrategy.com/) will focus on BTCfi, one of the fastest-growing sectors and largest opportunities in crypto. Like MicroStrategy and Metaplanet's accumulation of Bitcoin, CoreFi Strategy will dual stake and hold CORE and BTC, while using innovative financing strategies to increase its treasury holdings. This approach offers capital market participants regulated access to BTCfi and the potential for higher beta Bitcoin returns.

A New Path to BTCfi Exposure

Earlier this year, Valour Inc., a subsidiary of DeFi Technologies ("Valour") and a leading issuer of exchange traded products ("ETPs"),  launched the first yield-bearing BTC ETP, which uses Core's Non-Custodial Bitcoin Staking product to return investors 5.65% yield on its Bitcoin holdings. Valour also launched a CORE ETP, granting institutional investors exposure to the CORE token through their traditional brokerage accounts. It's currently available to German investors on Börse Frankfurt, the largest German stock exchange.

Core is the most Bitcoin-aligned blockchain with over 8,200 staked Bitcoin and ~75% of Bitcoin mining hash power contributing to the security of its leading ecosystem of over $700M in TVL, 1M+ weekly active wallets, 310M+ total transactions, and 100+ applications. The recent integration of Dual Staking enables Bitcoin stakers who also stake CORE tokens to earn higher Bitcoin staking rates, making CORE essential to unlocking sustainable Bitcoin yields. This unique relationship to the Bitcoin asset makes CORE a high-beta, high-upside Bitcoin ecosystem asset within a regulated framework.

"CoreFi Strategy represents a unique opportunity to capitalize on the BTCfi revolution by providing direct exposure to Core's growth," said Olivier Roussy Newton, CEO of DeFi Technologies. "Investors will have the chance to participate in the rapid adoption of Core as a yield-bearing BTCfi protocol, similar to how MicroStrategy unlocked early Bitcoin exposure for Wall Street."

Maximizing CORE Holdings

Similar to MicroStrategy and MetaPlanet's focus on BTC, CoreFi Strategy will actively acquire and hold CORE assets, using smart leverage to maximize potential gains. MicroStrategy's stock has historically traded at a premium, often outperforming Bitcoin by 1.5x-2.5x, due to the company's position as a pure-play Bitcoin investment vehicle. In the last year, MicroStrategy has risen 632%+, outperforming BTC by more than 3x, and MetaPlanet has risen by 920%+, outperforming BTC by nearly 7x, highlighting the opportunity for public companies to leverage capital markets to exceed the performance of their Bitcoin holdings.

CoreFi Strategy aims to capture this momentum by enabling investors to participate in CORE's yield generation, Non-Custodial Bitcoin Staking, and Dual Staking model, which aligns incentives between Bitcoin and Core. As BTCfi grows, CoreFi Strategy positions itself as the key vehicle for accessing this emerging sector within a regulated public market.

Core is the most Bitcoin-aligned EVM blockchain, with ~76% of Bitcoin mining hash power contributing to the network's security.
