Vancouver, BC, Nov. 22, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Spirit Blockchain Capital Inc. (CSE: SPIR), ("Spirit"), a leader in digital finance and blockchain innovation, is pleased to announce the closing of the acquisition of Dogecoin Portfolio Holding Corp marking a pivotal milestone in our mission to lead the transformation from traditional asset management to a tokenized and digital asset world.

A New Chapter in the Dogecoin Ecosystem

This acquisition of Dogecoin Portfolio Holding Corp. positions Spirit as a powerful player in the Dogecoin ecosystem, a symbol of the democratization of finance through decentralization and community-driven innovation. We are committed to delivering value to our stakeholders while expanding the functionality of Dogecoin Portfolio Holding Corp. within traditional and digital finance, enabling unique opportunities for both retail and institutional investors.

Driving Transformation in Digital Asset Management

"We see the evolution from mutual funds to ETFs, and now to tokenized funds, as a natural progression in asset management," said Lewis Bateman, CEO of Spirit "Tokenization offers a secure, transparent way to protect and enhance the sovereignty of personal assets on-chain, leveraging blockchain to enable a level of trust and accessibility that is invaluable. By bringing Dogecoin Portfolio Holding Corp. into this landscape, we are not only aligning with innovation but setting new standards in how assets are managed, accessed, and protected for future generations."

Sean Zubick, Co-Founder and Strategic Advisor of Dogecoin Portfolio Holding Corp., remarked, "Being the first public proxy to Dogecoin allows the world to build exposure without the need for a crypto wallet. DogeCoin as a technology is in its early adoption, and with the momentum of the crypto bull market and key global figures like Elon Musk working towards increasing adoption - We like the coin!"

This acquisition highlights Spirit's commitment to fostering a new age in finance, where blockchain technology empowers individuals with ownership and control over their investments. According to a recent report by Deloitte, the tokenization of financial assets is projected to reach $16 trillion by 2030, reflecting a growing demand for secure, transparent, and flexible investment models.

Under the terms of the agreement, Spirit has acquired all of the issued and outstanding securities of Dogecoin Portfolio Holding Corp., including common shares and share purchase warrants, from the company's shareholders (the "Vendors"). In exchange, Spirit will issue 14,000,000 common shares and 14,000,000 common share purchase warrants, with each warrant exercisable at $0.05 per common share for a period of 24 months from the closing. This strategic acquisition is structured to facilitate Spirit's integration with Dogecoin Portfolio Holding Corp. assets and operations, creating long- term value for shareholders of both companies.
