This plays into our long-term objective of having a significant number of Lightning Network payment channels with Bitcoin staked on them (a requirement of the network) that are active across the Lightning Network and allow us to forward and route transactions as a major network participant, and earn fees for doing so,” says Chairman and CEO Shone Anstey.

Lightning Network focused company, LQwD FinTech Corp. (TSXV: LQWD, OTC: LQWDF) (“LQwD” or the “Company”) is pleased to announce that it has closed its previously announced offering of 20,000,000 units (the “Units”) at a price of C$0.35 per Unit (the “Offering Price”) for total gross proceeds of C$7,000,000 (the “Offering”). The Offering was conducted by a syndicate of underwriters led by Canaccord Genuity Corp. and including PI Financial Corp. (together, the “Underwriters”). The Underwriters also exercised their over-allotment option in full to purchase an additional 3,000,000 Units for additional gross proceeds of C$1,050,000.  Including the proceeds from the exercise of the over-allotment option, the total gross proceeds of the Offering are C$8,050,000 with an aggregate of 23,000,000 Units issued.

Each Unit consists of one common share of the Company (a “Common Share”) and one half of one common share purchase warrant (each whole purchase warrant, a “Warrant”).  Each Warrant is exercisable to acquire one Common Share until October 28, 2023, at an exercise price of C$0.50.

The net proceeds from the Offering will be used to acquire Bitcoin and for general corporate and working capital purposes.

In consideration for their services, the Company paid the Underwriters a cash fee equal to 7.0% of the aggregate gross proceeds of the Offering, other than in respect of Units sold to purchasers designated by the Company, for which a cash fee of 3.5% was paid, and issued an aggregate of 1,528,765 compensation Warrants and 214,285 Common Shares as partial payment of a corporate finance fee. Each Compensation Warrant will be exercisable to acquire one Common Share at an exercise price equal to the Offering Price for a period of 24 months from the closing of the Offering, subject to adjustment in certain events.

Certain directors and officers of the Company participated in the Offering by purchasing a total of 413,500 Units.  Accordingly, the Offering constituted to that extent a \”related party transaction\” under applicable Canadian securities laws.  The Company did not file a material change report more than 21 days before the expected closing of the Offering as the details of the Offering and the participation therein by related parties of the Company were not settled until shortly prior to closing and the Company wished to close on an expedited basis for sound business reasons.

This press release shall not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy nor shall there be any sale of the securities in any jurisdiction in which such offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful. The securities being offered have not been, nor will they be, registered under the 1933 Act and may not be offered or sold in the United States or to, or for the account or benefit of, U.S. persons absent registration or an applicable exemption from the registration requirements of the 1933 Act, and applicable state securities laws. “United States” and “U.S. person” are as defined in Regulation S under the 1933 Act.

IBN (InvestorBrandNetwork), a multifaceted communications organization engaged in connecting public companies to the investment community, is pleased to announce the release of the latest CryptoCurrencyWire Audio Production as part of its sustained effort to provide specialized content via widespread syndication channels.

The audio production features Shone Anstey, Co-Founder, Chairman and CEO of LQwD FinTech Corp. (TSX.V: LQWD) (OTCQB: LQWDF), a financial technology company focused on creating enterprise-grade infrastructure to drive bitcoin adoption.

To begin the interview, Anstey discussed his extensive background in tech and crypto leading up to his time with LQwD FinTech.

“I’ve been in tech for 25 years. … I heard about crypto in 2011 and got involved in 2012, so I’ve been in the bitcoin area for quite some time,” he said. “In 2015, I co-founded a company called Blockchain Intelligence Group. … We actually acquired a company called Netcoins.ca. … It is now Canada’s first publicly traded crypto exchange that actually has a license from regulators as of a few weeks ago. … I’m still there as a director and a large shareholder, but I’ve been involved in LQwD and the Lightning Network for the last two years. We’re working where I like to be – on stuff that’s cutting edge and about to become mainstream over the next few years. That’s the Lightning Network itself.”

Anstey then provided an overview of the Lightning Network and detailed how it could revolutionize bitcoin transactions and the entirety of the crypto space.

“The Lightning Network is a solution to scaling bitcoin,” he continued. “Bitcoin, which is the anchor cryptocurrency for the entire crypto market … is backed by millions of computers doing bitcoin mining, which helps secure the network and make it really safe with an immutable ledger. But it can only handle so many transactions with its current technology – about seven transactions a second. The Lightning Network steps in there and scales it to the next level.”

“The Lightning Network is a mesh-style network, very similar to how the internet functions. It’s made up of a series of nodes – computers and servers – and on those nodes you run open-source Lightning Network software,” he added. “That Lightning Network software creates payment channels to other companies running Lightning Network software. … This whole mesh network happens around the world. There’re now 60,000 nodes and all kinds of payment channels that have been growing very, very quickly over the last number of years. This year alone it’s increased by about 182% since January. … This whole interconnected mesh network … allows transactions to find a place very quickly with very low fees. It’s designed for massive volume. … You’re seeing the uptick with countries like El Salvador taking on bitcoin as a national currency. The Lightning Network is one of the catalysts to make that happen.”

Join both Shone Anstey, Co-Founder, Chairman and CEO of LQwD FinTech Corp. (TSX.V: LQWD) (OTCQB: LQWDF), and Jonathan Keim, IBN’s Director of Communications, as they discuss the long-term applications and potential for crypto, the benefits of LQwD’s position as a publicly traded company and the company’s business model relating to bitcoin investing.
