CYIOS Corp Provides Shareholders Update
Company to Ship 24 HAND SANITIZER Pre-Orders This Week and Engages Specialty Online Marketing, Social Media Advertising Firm
Aventura, Florida–(Newsfile Corp. – July 22, 2020) – CYIOS Corp (OTC Pink: CYIO), a publicly traded company focused on developing and marketing specialty branded products in the Health and Wellness markets, is pleased to provide the following shareholders update and progress report since launching the Company’s online store last month.
Mr. John O’Shea, Chairman of CYIOS Corp. stated, “We are pleased to report positive Company progress since launching our online store in June. With global case numbers of the current pandemic spiraling out of control, the need for sanitizing solutions is rapidly growing for personal use, home use and business use. Since launching our new online retail store, traffic has been building and sales of our retail consumer products have been booked with shipping underway. The Company is investing in, and currently expanding on, various marketing initiatives designed to increase awareness of the Company’s products and drive traffic to the online store. As part of this initiative, we just completed our first 24 HAND SANITIZER educational and promotional video which can be found here. In addition, the Company has also engaged a specialty online marketing and social media advertising firm to build awareness and drive traffic of all company products.
The Company has been shipping KN-95 5ply face masks, DR’s CHOICE CBD tinctures and topicals and has commenced fulfillment of orders for its 24 HAND SANITIZER. The Company is pleased to announce that two organizations have purchased a total of 700 units of 24 HAND SANITIZER 2ounce tubes, and will be donating all 700 units to first responders and other organizations in need. These 700 units have been purchased and fully paid for by two independent groups that will be making the donations to organizations in consultation with and on behalf of the Company.
The Company has also added additional new products to its online store, including immediate availability of long lasting, alcohol-free hand sanitizer wipes as well as gallon size foaming hand sanitizer containers all formulated with Zetrisil® which provides a nano-shield of unsurpassed protection for hours against recontamination on your hands. 24 HAND SANITIZER is the Company’s consumer branded product and is formulated as a luxurious, long-lasting, alcohol-free sanitizer that leaves hands not only soft and silky smooth, but also germ-free and protected against recontamination for hours after a single application. The fast-acting, ALCOHOL-FREE formula has been clinically shown to kill 99.99% of harmful germs hands may come into contact with.
Mr. O’Shea continued, “In addition, we are working closely with Cicero Transact for marketing to business owners as we prepare to release numerous new sanitizing products for commercial and industrial use, which includes bulk hand sanitizer, hard surface disinfectant/cleaner, and laundry care. Cicero will play an important role, and as part of our previously disclosed agreement they will supply the Company with 2,500,000 records of business owners, medical professionals, pharmacists, restaurateurs, janitorial supply companies, cleaning services, hospitals, property and building management companies, and other key demographic targets that suit Choice Wellness products and our soon to be released commercial products. Our near term focus is to launch additional products that serve specific needs in today’s demanding environment. The objective is to become a trusted solutions provider and online destination for both consumer and business users through offering superior, unique, proprietary sanitizing products that are safer for the environment and are an effective alternative to alcohol based sanitizers which are toxic, flammable and potentially seriously dangerous if ingested. With our FDA Registered products, the physical kill of germs is accomplished by the active ingredient Benzolkonium Chloride which is one of only three (and the only one that is non-alcohol) active ingredients allowed by the FDA for use in hand sanitizer.”
Mr. O’Shea, went on to say, “What sets us apart is that we are investing in our own product development and not simply contracting with a random distillery packaging up Ethyl or Propyl alcohol into a flammable, toxic gel goop that stings if you have a minor nick or cut on your hands or cuticle. Furthermore, alcohol sanitizer is only effective from the time you put it on your hands and until it dries, after which you have no further protection from recontamination. 24 Sanitizer not only kills most potentially harmful germs on hands, but provides for hours of lasting protection from recontamination. Part of our mission is to educate and build customer loyalty among consumers seeking the best protection for themselves, family and children. Our promotional videos are designed to be educational as we believe over time consumers will seek out safer alternative sanitizing solutions rather than using gasoline additives like ethyl alcohol on their skin or kids hands 5 to 10 times a day.”
With Sanitizer global forecasts predicted to grow at a staggering pace, we believe we are at the right place at the right time in order to grab market share through offering superior products that are a safer alternative to alcohol based sanitizers. We look forward to launching new products in the short term and expand our offerings of sanitizing solutions that can give people freedom to go out in public without worrying about contracting a virus from touching a potentially contaminated surface like a bank ATM, gas pump, elevator button, door handle or shopping cart,” concluded Mr. O’Shea.

Fintech Pulse: Your Daily Industry Brief (Chime, ZBD, MiCA)
As we close out 2024, the fintech industry continues to deliver headlines that underscore its dynamism and innovation. From IPO aspirations to groundbreaking regulatory milestones, today’s updates highlight the transformative power of fintech partnerships, regulatory evolution, and disruptive technologies. Here’s what you need to know.
Chime’s Quiet Step Toward Public Markets
Chime, the U.S.-based financial technology startup best known for its digital banking services, has taken a significant step by filing confidential paperwork for an initial public offering (IPO). As one of the most valuable private fintechs in the U.S., Chime’s move could potentially signal a renewed appetite for fintech IPOs in a market that has been cautious following fluctuating valuations across the tech sector.
With a valuation that reportedly exceeded $25 billion in its last funding round, Chime’s IPO could set a new benchmark for the industry. Observers note that its strong customer base and revenue growth may make it an appealing choice for investors seeking to capitalize on the digital banking boom. However, the timing and success of the IPO will depend on broader market conditions and the regulatory landscape.

ZBD’s Pioneering Achievement: EU MiCA License Approval
ZBD, a fintech company specializing in Bitcoin Lightning network solutions, has made history by becoming the first to secure an EU MiCA (Markets in Crypto-Assets Regulation) license. This landmark approval by the Dutch regulator positions ZBD at the forefront of compliant crypto-fintech operations in Europe.
MiCA, which aims to harmonize the regulatory framework for crypto-assets across the EU, has been a focal point for industry players aiming to establish legitimacy and expand their offerings. ZBD’s achievement not only validates its operational rigor but also sets a precedent for other fintech firms navigating the evolving regulatory landscape.
Industry insiders view this as a strategic advantage for ZBD as it broadens its footprint in Europe. By leveraging its regulatory approval, the company can accelerate its product deployment and establish trust with institutional and retail users alike.
