AMSTERDAM, May 4, 2021 /PRNewswire=KYODO JBN/ --

- Strategic acquisition that strengthens Nxchange's position as the go-to

destination for tokenizing assets

Today, Nxchange announced the official acquisition of Bondex, the

blockchain-based platform that companies can license in order to digitize their

shareholder register or tokenize their shares or bonds issuance. This

acquisition will further expand Nxchange's service offerings and will continue

to drive the company's mission to become the single destination for tokenizing

and trading alternative assets in Europe. Bondex has been fully acquired by

Nxchange, but will continue to operate as an independent entity. Founder Jos

van Alphen will become part of the board of Nxchange.

"Nxchange has a long expressed interest to further use Decentralised Financing

(DeFi) structures and we have been presented with an opportunity to bring on a

committed and enthusiastic team that aligns clearly with our mission at

Nxchange. This mission is to provide innovative finance solutions for

alternative investments," said Marleen Evertsz, CEO & Founder, Nxchange. "With

Nxchange positioned in Europe as the place to invest and trade alternative

assets on a Regulated Market, taking on a fully established private issuance

platform that can deliver the experience that our Nxchange users have come to

expect was a natural fit for us."

Bondex provides a blockchain-based platform that companies can license in order

to digitize their shareholder register and tokenize their shares or bonds. By

licensing the platform a company can self-structure a share or bond issuance on

the blockchain by involving their employees, direct clientele or other

stakeholders or simply use the Bondex platform to manage their shareholders,

whereby the platform provides functionality for, amongst others, the KYC / AML

process for on-boarding investors, payments, OTC trading, fund management and

social management.

Nxchange believes tokenizing alternative assets will play a vital role in the

future of the financial ecosystem. By including this asset class, Nxchange is

now uniquely situated to position itself as a 360-degree solution for all the

investing needs of European millennials.

"We want our community to know that this step will lead to bigger and more

exciting features in the future and that they can look forward to an enhanced

version of the platform that they have already come to love," said Jos van

Alphen, Founder & CEO, Bondex.

Bondex will be located at Nxchange headquarters in Amsterdam. Further updates

on Nxchange product roadmap as well as new features that Nxchange users can

look forward to will be shared at a later date.
