Reading Time: 4 minutes

Vancouver, British Columbia–(Newsfile Corp. – December 15, 2021) – iMining Technologies Inc. (TSXV: IMIN) (the “Company” or “iMining“) is pleased to announce that it has become a publicly traded Web3.0 company, involved in virtual currency mining, digital asset staking and trading. In addition to its current operations, iMining has entered into a Letter of Intent (“LOI”) with 1850142 Ontario Inc. (the “Seller”), for iMining to acquire the Seller’s assets which include digital land in the Decentraland Metaverse (the “Transaction”). Through this acquisition, iMining is purchasing land in the Metaverse to develop the future of work and how organizations, professionals and employees will interact and work together going forward. This transaction will also provide iMining with a collection of 16 NFT assets of Crypto Kitties and NBA Top Shots.

IMIN will acquire the Assets in consideration of CAD $300,000 payable upon receipt by IMIN of regulatory acceptance of the transaction, and the issuance and delivery of 2,500,000 common shares of IMIN (the “Shares”) at a deemed price of $0.12 per share. The Shares will be subject to a four-month hold period, after which escrow conditions will apply whereby the shares will be released as to 25% every 3 months.

With this acquisition, iMining will complete the puzzle and will have developed an infrastructure to become a Web3.0 technology company. Web3.0 is the next evolution in computing and information technology, after the transition from Web1.0 to Web2.0, as early-stage applications of this technology are already here. Web3.0 will bring together the convergence of Augmented and Virtual Reality technology, IOT devices, distributed ledger technology (blockchain), Artificial Intelligence and Machine learning.

Web3.0 is a decentralized method of accessing the information on the Internet and it is built using the blockchain technology. Currently, large corporations and entities hold the data and information which is provided by individuals. However, in the new age of Web3.0, it is believed that the information and data will be held on the blockchain and individuals will control their own data. This way the benefits will be shared with the entire community rather than just the owners of the technology.

“We are on the cusp of major technological transformation and some people are oblivious to it entirely. The advent of new technology or the evolution of existing technologies, which changes how people interact with no clear future impact, is intimidating initially. However, we at iMining are working with our strategic partners to provide our investors and clients with an end-to-end solution so they can easily participate in the growth of Web3.0 and benefit from it,” said Khurram Shroff, President and CEO of the Company. “Web3.0 will entirely change how people interact with technology and with each other. This is an exciting time and I remain confident that iMining is positioned as thought leaders to assist this entire industry grow. iMining has established itself to provide public market investors exposure to Web3.0, the next evolution of Internet.”

About Web3.0:

Web3.0 is the third generation of internet services for websites and applications that will focus on using a machine-based understanding of data; the goal of Web3.0 is to create more intelligent, connected, and open websites. Web3.0 is the most recent evolution of the internet. Web3.0 is built largely on three new layers of technological innovation; edge computing, decentralized data networks and artificial intelligence, and will allow the user and machines to interact with data and other counterparties via a peer-to-peer network without the need for third parties. This will result in a human-centric and privacy preserving computing platform for the next wave of the web.

About iMining Technologies Inc.

iMining is a publicly listed Web3.0 technology company developing technology for Proof of Stake (“POS”) infrastructure on Ethereum, Cardano, Avalanche and Solana Blockchains and investing in revenue-generating crypto and blockchain assets linked to Decentralized Finance (“DeFi”) and Non-Fungible Tokens (“NFT”). iMining also owns BitBit Financial, an ATM Network and crypto OTC Platform.

With diverse blockchain investment and infrastructure solutions, iMining will be a leader in accelerating the growth of Web3.0 for the enterprise market. The Company’s operations include secure and sustainable cryptocurrency payments, staking, mining and digital asset investment designed for the scale and compliance requirements of institutional clients. iMining is committed to building strong global blockchain ecosystems and supporting inclusive access to digital tools and technologies.

Fintech Farm raises $32m to expand its ‘neobank in a box’ model to India

Published

on

 

London-headquartered Fintech Farm has secured additional funding as part of its strategy to expand its operations into India.

The startup, which specializes in providing technology solutions to medium-sized banks in emerging markets to develop digital tools, has raised $32 million in funding.

This funding includes an initial Series B round led by London-based venture firm Nordstar, followed by an extension Series B round led by Bank of Georgia, listed on the London Stock Exchange.

Fintech Farm’s founding team includes Dmytro Dubilet, one of the founders of Ukrainian neobank Monobank, former KPMG M&A executive Nick Bezkrovnyy, and Alexander Vityaz, the founder of Corezoid, a cloud-based operating system provider.

Previously, the company raised a $7.4 million round in 2022 led by Flyer One Ventures and Solid, with participation from TA Ventures, Jiji, u.ventures, and AVentures Capital.

Fintech Farm, established in 2020, partners with medium-sized banks in emerging markets seeking to build neobank apps but lacking digital expertise. Dubilet explains that the startup differs from other banking-as-a-service (BaaS) players by focusing on providing operational support rather than regulatory or infrastructure services.

According to Dubilet, Fintech Farm offers comprehensive technology solutions, often referred to as ‘a neobank in a box,’ covering all the essentials for building a large and profitable digital bank.

The startup has already launched its solutions in Azerbaijan, where it partnered with a local bank to offer an app-based service to over 1 million users. In Vietnam, it collaborated with Orient Commercial Joint Stock Bank to establish Liobank. Fintech Farm earns compensation based on performance, tied to the number of customers and revenues generated for its partner banks.

Fintech Farm is now focused on developing a fintech product in India, aiming to enhance consumer access to credit. Bezkrovnyy highlights India’s robust digital payment ecosystem, particularly the Unified Payments Interface, which facilitates partnerships with local banks to offer lending products.

The funding round for Fintech Farm underscores Europe’s investment trend favoring fintechs with business-to-business (B2B) models. In the first quarter of 2024, B2B fintechs received $2.1 billion in funding, nearly double the amount allocated to consumer fintechs.
