Vancouver, British Columbia–(Newsfile Corp. – December 24, 2024) – Moss Genomics Inc. (CSE: MOSS) (the “Company” or “Moss”) today announced the appointment of Jack Liu as CEO and a Director of the Company and the launch of its Moss Ethereum treasury division.
The Company has entered into an arms-length asset purchase agreement dated December 24, 2024 to acquire 160 ETH for its treasury at a price of CDN$4,900 per ETH in exchange for the issuance of 7,840,000 common shares, at a deemed price of CDN$0.10 per share for an aggregate purchase price of CDN$784,000.
Ethereum, unlike Bitcoin, serves as a decentralized smart contract platform enabling a wide range of applications, including DeFi, NFTs, and DAOs. Its developer community, network effects, and advantage in smart contracts have strengthened its position as a strong platform for Web3 innovation.
