(TSX.V: MATE) (OTCQB: MATEF) (FSE: 8MH1) (“Blockmate” or the “Company”) is pleased to announce that it has received commitments for a strategic investment (the “Offering”) of CAD $1,400,000 from a group of investors led by Antanas Guoga (Tony G) to accelerate the expansion of Blockmate’s portfolio. Blockmate’s primary asset, its controlling stake in Hivello Holdings Ltd, has been able to source capital independently since December 2023, so this new capital will assist in launching Blockmate’s subsequent companies.

His expertise and belief in our mission empower us to fast-track our roadmap, accelerating the development of powerful, scalable solutions. With this capital injection, we are poised to launch new projects with as much promise as Hivello, while diversifying Blockmate’s portfolio.”
The Offering will be conducted by way of non-brokered private placement in which the Company proposes to issue 14,000,000 units (each, a “Unit”) at a price of $0.10 per Unit.
