CanETH Staking Services Inc. (“CanETH”) invests in Shiba Inu, an Ethereum based ERC-20 Token and plans to launch staking for over 950,000 wallets who are holding Shiba Inu tokens

Vancouver, British Columbia–(Newsfile Corp. – November 19, 2021) – iMining Technologies Inc. (TSXV: IMIN) (the “Company” or “iMining”) is a publicly listed company which through its wholly-owned subsidiary, CanETH, provides staking as a service Proof of Stake (“POS”) infrastructure on Ethereum, Solana and Cardano Blockchains, and invests in revenue-generating crypto and blockchain assets linked to Decentralized Finance (“DeFi”) and Non-Fungible Tokens (“NFT”). The Company also owns BitBit Financial (“BitBit”), an ATM Network and crypto exchange, and is enabling exchange and staking of Shiba Inu tokens (“SHIB”). SHIB is a token poised for growth as it is held in more than 950,000 wallets and is continually increasing its holder base, which is how Bitcoin gained prominence by increasing the number of active wallets and its user base. CanETH has purchased 500,000,000 SHIB tokens, for approximately $26,500 payable in Ethereum tokens, to initiate staking of Shiba Inu tokens.

SHIB is an Ethereum-based token and has a current market capitalization of approximately $30.0 billion. SHIB is now the 11th largest cryptocurrency by market cap. SHIB began as a meme coin but over time has really become popular amongst the millennials. The low price of the coin is really attractive to cryptocurrency investors as they can buy millions of coins with modest capital injection. Another reason why SHIB has performed well over the past few months is because it has created NFTs and provides support for many other DeFi and NFT projects through the use of its own DEFI ecosystem called “ShibaSwap”. Globally, there are more than 950,000 wallets holding SHIB. Currently, SHIB holders can earn additional tokens by staking (in Shiba’s terms “Burying”) their tokens. CanETH is excited to expand its staking offerings to include Shiba Inu and will soon be ready to provide these services to its customers.

Story continues

“I first noticed the Shiba Inu project earlier this year. The anonymous founder named “Ryoshi” really caught my attention after they actually followed through with their DeFi roadmap and implemented Shibaswap. The DeFi ecosystem they implemented its deflationary tokenomics and Vitalik Buterin’s USD $1 billion (at the time) donation to India’s Covid relief fund really separated this token from the majority of other “meme” coins out there,” stated Khurram Shroff, Chairman and CEO of iMining Technologies Inc. “Additionally, Adam Aron, the CEO of AMC Theatres said recently that AMC will accept SHIB as a form of payment within the next 4-6 Months.”

About Shiba Inu (SHIB):

Shiba Inu (SHIB) is an Ethereum-based token alternative to Dogecoin (DOGE), a popular meme coin. SHIB operates on the environmentally friendly Proof-of-Stake platform. The SHIB ecosystem supports NFT, GemeFi, and decentralized trading through Shibaswap.

The two innovative Canadian blockchain companies are partnering on a landmark transaction of carbon credits represented as digital assets on the Cardano blockchain.

Vancouver, British Columbia —iMining Technologies Inc. (TSX-V: IMIN) (the “Company” or “iMining“) and GuildOne Inc. (“GuildOne”) are pleased to announce a new partnership that leverages GuildOne’s advanced blockchain and tokenization technologies to support iMining’s commitment towards net-zero carbon emissions in line with Government initiatives.

iMining is joining the GuildOne-founded Zero Genesis project, a collaboration of technology and industry partners. The Zero Genesis project is committed to realizing the positive impact that blockchain technology and digital assets can bring in the pursuit of sustainable development goals. The companies are collaborating on a landmark transaction that represents verified carbon credits as digital assets, or tokens, on the sustainable Cardano blockchain. Each credit represents a tonne of carbon that has been prevented from being vented into the atmosphere as emissions, acquired from sources including GuildOne’s energy industry partners.

In addition to the tokenized carbon credit transaction, the companies are collaborating on the planting of several thousand trees to further offset iMining’s carbon emissions, including projects with Indigenous partners. The carbon storage capacity of this new forest as it matures will also be tokenized as a digital asset.

The global carbon credit market is rapidly growing and is expected to reach up to US $50 – $100B by 2030, according to UN Special Envoy on Climate Action and Finance Mark Carney, and the sale of emissions offsets will be a key part of financing the multi-trillion annual requirements of the energy transition.

However, the carbon market faces numerous trust and scaling challenges. Blockchain technology is a significant advancement on traditional credit mechanisms by providing an immutable digital record of the origin, provenance and certifications of the carbon behind each credit.

The initial purchase transaction of the blockchain-based carbon credits was settled between the parties in ADA, Cardano’s native currency. Khurram Shroff, Chairman of iMining, said that the transaction was a significant move towards realizing his company’s sustainability goals.

“iMining is committed to strong ESG values, and that includes reducing the emissions impact of our operations,” he said. “Joining forces on this project with GuildOne supports both our net zero goals and our innovation in the Cardano ecosystem. We see many collaboration opportunities ahead and are on track to become net-negative emissions by next year.”

GuildOne CEO James Graham said that the partnership represents an opportunity to demonstrate the power of blockchain to support a sustainable future.

“Our unique position as a bridge between the energy sector and digital asset ecosystem allowed us to create a complete solution for turning verified carbon data into tradeable value,” he said. “We value iMining as a partner who is in deep alignment both on core values and creative technology innovation. The inclusion of nature positive credits- the tokens representing newly planted trees – deepens the positive impact of the project – and further illustrates the values alignment of the partners.”

Having completed the initial tokenized carbon credit transaction, the companies are developing the next stage of their joint project, which will engage additional blockchain capability through the use of R3’s Corda platform in the exchange and settlement of the ESG1 Tokens.
