Routemaster Capital Inc. (the “

Routemaster”) (TSXV: RM) is pleased to announce

Inc. (“
DeFi Holdings”), first announced on October

DeFi Holdings is a company focused on investing,
incubating and managing trading technologies associated with the
fast-growing decentralised finance market. Decentralized finance
could be considered the next wave of financial innovation on the
blockchain. It refers to digital assets, financial smart contracts,
protocols, and decentralized applications
(“DApps”) built on Ethereum and
other blockchains. In simpler terms, it is financial software built
on the blockchain. Decentralized finance’s core selling point is
the removal of intermediaries in transactions which in traditional
finance provide the “trust” layer (i.e. banks and brokers) in a
transaction between two parties. With decentralized finance, users
can access the network directly, so there is no need for
intermediaries.
