We also have made minority investments in three solid businesses – Wonder.fi, ZenLedger and LQwD Fintech Corp, that are becoming leaders in their respective markets. In Q3, Netcoins made the significant step of receiving the first restricted dealer license for a crypto trading platform, owned by a public company, in Canada. This license sets the stage for growth, and Platform as a Service offerings to enable 3rd parties to offer crypto trading to their customers. Netcoins also expects to launch Netcoins Pay shortly, making it even easier for our loyal customers to make everyday purchases via their Netcoins account and receive crypto rewards. Thus far in the 4th quarter of 2021, we have seen trading volumes rise significantly from the quieter summer period and we look forward to continued growth, customer acquisition and product enhancements, as well as partnership expansions.”
