Tokens.com Completes Acquisition of Metaverse Group

TORONTO--()--Tokens.com Corp. (NEO Exchange Canada: COIN)(Frankfurt Stock Exchange: 76M) (OTCQB US: SMURF) (“Tokens.com” or the “Company”), a publicly-traded company that builds web3 businesses and owns an inventory of digital assets, is pleased to announce that it has closed its acquisition of all of the issued and outstanding shares from the minority shareholders of Metaverse Group LTD that the Company does not already own. In addition, Metaverse Group has launched a new website, which can be visited at metaversegroup.com, reflecting its expanding business branding.

As consideration for the acquisition, Tokens.com has issued 20,576,941 common shares to the minority Metaverse Group shareholders. Each minority Metaverse Group shareholder will receive 0.347 Tokens.com shares per Metaverse Group share. The Tokens.com shares to be issued as part of this transaction will be subject to contractual escrow provisions over a nine month period. In addition, an aggregate of 3,105,650 options to purchase shares of Tokens.com and 694,000 RSUs of Tokens.com were issued as replacement securities to certain security holders of Metaverse Group. This transaction has been approved by the board of directors of both entities, Metaverse Group shareholders, and the NEO Exchange.

The integration of the two entities will further enhance the synergies between the two entities, including Hulk Labs, the gaming unit of Tokens.com. The gamification capabilities of Hulk Labs will enhance Metaverse Groups services offered to clients. The merger will enable the development of new, immersive experiences within the metaverse, combining the best of gaming and virtual reality. Furthermore, the amalgamation is expected to bring additional synergies in corporate overhead, investor relations, public relations, and human resources.

Metaverse Group also continues to build its software development capabilities across various web2 and web3 metaverses. This includes web2 metaverses such as Robolox, which has an estimated 65 million users daily. Metaverse Group is platform agnostic and is able to deliver value within all types of 3D virtual realities. In addition, Metaverse Group is looking at expanding its service capabilities to headsets, which will allow its clients to build on such platforms like the forthcoming Apple VR Headset set for release later this year.

Tokens.com will actively seek to acquire other companies that align with its vision and mission. The company believes that these strategic acquisitions will further strengthen its position in web3 and accelerate its growth.

Tokens.com intends to gradually pivot from its staking operations to focus on the building of Metaverse Group and Hulk Labs. In the future, the Company may seek to sell part or all of its staking inventory to finance further growth in its businesses.

“The staking business has provided a strong cushion of capital for our business since inception,” said Andrew Kiguel, CEO. “As the Company grows, we need to evaluate where we can achieve the highest risk adjusted returns. With token values peaking in 2021 and staking rewards declining for large cap tokens, we are evaluating the most strategic and rewarding ways to use the digital assets on behalf of shareholders.” added Kiguel.
