I-ON Digital Corp. Acquires Controlling Interest in Orebits Corp. and Secures Significant Gold-Backed Digital Asset Holdings

--News Direct--

I-ON Digital Corp. (OTC: IONI) (“I-ON Digital” or the “Company”) announced the completion of its previously announced Contribution and Exchange Agreement with Orebits Acquisition Group, LLC ("OAG"), by which I-ON Digital has acquired a controlling interest in Orebits Corp. (“Orebits”), along with Orebits' gold digitization patent portfolio, trademarks, brand marks, and core intellectual property. As part of this transaction, I-ON Digital will assume control over the Orebits digital platform and 9,700 Orebits.au gold-backed digital assets in exchange for Series C Preferred Shares in I-ON Digital. The Company estimates that the transaction will add approximately $18.2 million in shareholder equity to I-ON's balance sheet.

I-ON Digital is at the forefront of institutional-level asset digitization, tokenization, and securitization. The Company’s focus is on tangible mineral assets like proven gold and other precious metals reserves. The Company recently added a SaaS platform that will allow banks, broker-dealers and other financial intermediaries to onboard an institutional-level platform further facilitating receipt, management, and reporting in the arena of digital assets. The Company is dedicated to offering innovative solutions that bring tangible value to the banking, financial technology and mineral asset industries.

Employing proprietary means, the Company will immediately convert the 9,700 Orebits.au into I-ON's own gold-backed digital securities, referred to commercially as ION.au. By leveraging its internally developed and acquired patent & intellectual property portfolio, the Company aims to enhance the underlying value of these digital securities. Having validated internal applications for institutional-level asset digitization and treatment, the Company looks to renew its focus on the acquisition of US-based gold and other mineral asset claims. With the addition of an estimated $18.2 million in shareholder equity, the Company believes that it will be able to offer a broader variety of digital asset–based financial instruments to an expanding list of product and service offerings.

"We are extremely excited to announce the completion of this transaction and can't wait to deploy increased shareholder equity to further expand and enhance our asset digitization offerings in the marketplace," shared Ken Park, Director and Chief Marketing Officer of I-ON Digital Corp. "This transaction builds on the technological progress we've made this year and will greatly enhance our go-to-market strategies while expanding our product and service offerings along the way."
