Tokens.com invests in Web3 crypto assets and invests and builds businesses linked to the Metaverse, NFTs, blockchain gaming and proof-of-stake (“PoS”), technology. Web3 is the broad term used to describe a new iteration of the internet based on blockchain technology, which incorporates concepts such as decentralization and token-based economics.
Operations began in 2020 with a focus on crypto staking. This involved using our balance sheet capital to purchase an inventory of tokens and staking them to earn compensation in additional tokens.
Today, Tokens.com has three Web3 verticals. The first vertical is involved in the purchase and staking, through PoS technology, of tokens. The second vertical is Metaverse Group, a majority owned subsidiary focused on building a virtually integrated digital real estate business. The third vertical is a wholly owned subsidiary called Hulk Labs which is focused on holding NFT assets and investing in crypto based games that have a token return attached to them. Tokens.com leverages its human resources across the three verticals and seeks to utilize synergies between these businesses which are all based on the same blockchain technology.
Our investment approach is to identify the key trends happening in the crypto and web3 sector and purchase assets and build businesses linked to the macro growth of these areas. We remain confident that our assets and businesses are poised for further growth in 2022 and beyond.
November 2021 saw all time highs for many cryptocurrencies. Since then, the backdrop has been less positive. Fears around inflation and interest rate hikes dominated financial news in December and January. In addition, fears of a war between Russia and Ukraine materialized in February creating volatility in world financial markets. Tokens.com shares were impacted by this, although there were no material undisclosed matters.
2021 revenue is solely from our staking operations, which is still in its building phase. Our industry moves quickly and much has developed since the end of 2021, which is outlined above. We look forward to continuing to create value for shareholders ahead.
Tokens.com management team achieved several accomplishments in 2021, including going public. Although capital markets have been volatile, our business has been consistently growing. Management is committed to building shareholder value over the long term and providing investors with exposure to Web3 assets and businesses.
Tokens.com seeks to stake tokens that are linked to the fast-growing DeFi and NFT sectors. The tokens we stake are the programmable building blocks required by DeFi and NFT applications. Thus, as those sectors grow, the greater the requirement for third party stakers like Tokens.com. Tokens custodies its digital assets with Coinbase, a SOC 1 type 2 certified digital asset custodian, a non-related party. See Coinbase Custodial agreement below.
Q4 was our third quarter as a public company and our second full quarter with the proceeds from the April 2021 fundraise fully deployed. Tokens.com benefited significantly from the rebound in cryptocurrencies during Q3 & Q4 as is evidenced by the token price appreciation of the top 5 cryptocurrencies held by the Company as follows:
A complete financial reporting package, including the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and Management’s Discussion & Analysis, is available on our corporate website (www.tokens.com), and the SEDAR website (www.sedar.com).
An investor call has been scheduled to discuss the Company’s 2021 financial results, hosted by CEO Andrew Kiguel, starting at 4:00 pm ET on April 4, 2022.
