TORONTO, Dec. 12, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Matador Technologies Inc. (“Matador” or the “Company”) wishes to issue a correction related to its previously announced press release dated December 12, 2024, (the "Release") in which the Company indicated it is focusing on digitizing real-world assets on the Bitcoin blockchain, and strategically deploying Bitcoin into other high potential projects building on top of the Bitcoin network.
While Matador believes in the potential of utilizing blockchain for data management, scalability, and to incentivize young buyers to participate in the gold market, it has no definitive plans to adopt digitized assets in its service offerings or build on top of the Bitcoin network at this present time, other than in its proprietary application for the purchase and sale of gold.
Matador’s focus at the present time remains the development of its proprietary application for the purchase and sale of gold, as disclosed in its filing statement dated November 29, 2024, (the "Filing Statement") which continues to be on target for launch in early 2025. At current, the Company plans to incorporate blockchain-based data management technologies in the development of its proprietary application in order to enhance transparency and security, and ensure that transaction data is immutable, easily auditable, and decentralized, to protect against tampering and unauthorized access. To the extent that Matador determines to implement other operations related to Bitcoin or other blockchain technologies, such operations will be subject to the TSX Venture Exchange and applicable regulatory approvals.
The Release contains statements attributed to Sunny Ray and Deven Soni, and the 'About Matador' section, which are inconsistent with the business description of Matador as disclosed to the TSX Venture Exchange and as outlined in the Filing Statement. While the Company remains excited for future potential prospects associated with the Bitcoin ecosystem, Matador is currently focused solely upon its proprietary application for the purchase and sale of gold.
For greater certainty, the following section is to replace the 'About Matador' section in the Release:
About Matador Technologies Inc.
