DeFi Technologies to Present at Canaccord 6th Annual Digital Assets Virtual Symposium prnewswire.com/news-releases/… $DEFT

This webinar was a deep dive into @DeFiTechGlobal new DVIO Index. Thanks to all who took the time to attend! The $DEFT Valour Investment Opportunity (DVIO) Index is our proprietary data-driven leading market indicator that provides clear investment flow driven signals that are derived from the AUM, inflows, and trading movements of @ValourFunds world leading portfolio of over 100 digital asset underlying ETPs. DVIO Index is both unique and powerful precisely because DeFi Technologies wholly owned subsidiary Valour, with a world leading 102 digital asset underlying ETPs, operates as an incredibly transparent and efficient marketplace for regulated access to the world's top digital assets. The fact that Valour runs their own market making operations out of the UAE with the express goal of maintaining minimal spreads and reducing price slippage for investors helps bolster the efficient market hypothesis of the Valour ecosystem of products. The value propositions to $DEFT of the DVIO Index are as follows: 1. An investment grade data-driven framework that provides strong narratives and signals that can power recurring conversations about Valour ETPs with Alternative Investment Managers, Asset Allocators, Wealth Managers, Broker / Dealers, Platforms, Foundations, and the Media, worldwide; 2. A paid subscription service that provides DVIO Index Weekly and / or Monthly Reports as well as individual digital asset DVIO InFocus Reports which give insight as to why a specific Valour ETP is demonstrating alpha return potential; 3. In the future, the ability to support third party financial institutions creating structured instruments that track the DVIO Index thereby driving passive flows into the underlying Valour ETPs; 4. In the future, the ability to support tokenized RWA that track the main DVIO Index and strategic subsets of the DVIO Index thereby driving passive flows into the underlying Valour ETPs. DVIO Index: - is exclusive to $DEFT; - provides informative signals that helps keep DeFi Technologies, Valour, and $DEFT in front of buy and sell side equity analysts, alternative investment managers, asset allocators, wealth managers, and investors; - provides branded narrative and messaging which we will use to drive PR, press, marketing, and social media messaging on a weekly basis around the world; - helps drive direct and indirect inflows to @ValourFunds; - is a launchpad to explore third party structured instruments and tokenized RWA that have Valour ETPs as the underlying asset. DVIO Index is proprietary, virtually impossible to replicate, and is all ours. Please watch the replay of the seminar below. Should you have any questions or are interested in subscribing to the DVIO Index weekly or monthly reports, don't hesitate to contact via DM and we can start the onboarding process.

The future of digital asset market intelligence is not just price. It is capital flows. Watch the recording of our DeFi Technologies webinar on the DEFT Valour Investment Opportunity Index (DVIO) and see how regulated ETP flows can provide a forward looking view of the market. $DEFT

📽 Now available: Watch the panel discussion from the @DAF_Global in London – "Institutional Crypto Allocation: Moving Beyond the 5% Threshold". 🇬🇧 @Forson, President of @DeFiTechGlobal, highlights a familiar theme: institutions are interested, but clarity and actionable signals remain critical. A key focus is the DEFT Valour Investment Opportunity (DVIO) Index, designed to translate digital asset activity into clear, finance-native insights, helping investors track flows, identify opportunities, and navigate the market with greater confidence. 📊 As Andrew notes, broader adoption depends not just on access, but on tools that make digital assets understandable within traditional investment frameworks. ▶️ Watch the discussion to hear more on why signal clarity – not complexity – will drive the next phase of institutional allocation: youtu.be/tf5mSm6IvxQ?si… @ValourFunds @RyanEbner @alphaparty_io @Alessandro @CryptoFinanceAG @DeutscheBoerse @inside_r3

We are thrilled to announce that @DeFiTechGlobal is joining MERGE São Paulo as a Silver Sponsor! To kick things off, we are proud to partner with them to host a highly anticipated pre-event. On March 16, 2026—one day before MERGE São Paulo officially opens its doors—DeFi Technologies will host the Insights Symposium. This exclusive, in-person gathering will bring together senior leaders from traditional finance and digital assets to explore the next phase of institutional crypto adoption. 👉 Request an invitation via the Luma page: luma.com/a2zu32wi But that's not all! During the main conference, don't miss @Forson on stage.

I am super proud of the team of Data Analysts, Quantitative Engineers, and technologists @ValourFunds and @DeFiTechGlobal for the hard work they put into the creation and launch of the unique and proprietary DEFT VIO (#DVIO) Index - I like to pronounce it "#DEFTView". Their hard work and desire to innovate is second to none! Why is DEFT VIO important? DVIO is important because it brings $DEFT into the world of economic market data and the provision of investment research and signals that are based on a proprietary index that uniquely weights actual capital allocations and AUM from the #Valour ecosystem of structured instruments. What problem does DEFT VIO solve? Quite simply, asset allocators and investors often do not know what signals to look for when investing in digital assets - particularly when it comes to the long-tail altcoins which is an area where Valour has a particular competitive advantage. The world of digital asset investing is one in which if the price of Bitcoin sneezes the entire sector catches a cold. It doesn't have to be this way - thanks to DVIO Index, data indicates there are digital assets that are uncorrelated and others that are at times negatively correlated. What DVIO Index provides is a data-driven view of how and where actual allocators operating within the transparent and efficient market ecosystem of Valour's world leading 102 digital asset underlying ETPs are choosing to invest; whilst giving a more tangible, data-driven view of capital flow movements in the digital asset space. Where our DVIO index is particularly useful to me as an executive at DeFi Technologies and Valour, is in our discussions with buy side and sell side equity analysts and portfolio managers who constantly seek greater understanding of the markets in which DeFi Technologies operates. It is important to be able to offer professional investors something more than "buy Bitcoin" or "buy crypto". You need to be able to advise on the basis of data and true signals - not noise. The DVIO Index Reports enable exactly this. For instance, during the week ending January 30th 2026, where the market saw a broad decline in $BTC and broader digital asset prices, #DVIO Index revealed that the Valour $HYPE ETP generated a 29.43% weekly return whereas the $FIL and $LTC Valour ETPs demonstrated %7.91 and %6.31 respective Flow Magnitude measures. With this February 6 sample report, you can examine how the signals the Valour ETP market has provided have since evolved. Valour is in the unique position of having over 100 ETPs all with critical, similar characteristics of transparency, accessibility, clear fees, tight spreads, minimal price slippage, and liquidity. Because of this, our data is different - it is better. Our data represents the buying and selling behaviours of actual rational investors operating within an efficient digital assets market. Put simply: there is less noise and more signal in investing in digital assets through the Valour ecosystem of ETPs. The DVIO Index captures the signals from this efficient market to serve as a leading market indicator for the broader digital assets space. The DVIO Index narrative will be increasingly useful and important as Valour moves towards the launch of our upcoming UCITS and AMC products. It will be important for us to be able to give investors granular insight as to the value proposition of the underlying assets that comprise these new products. From a more day to day perspective, the DEFT View (DVIO) Index provides #DeFiTechnologies with some valuable ammunition in the form of intellectual property as we work to expand our global footprint of available markets and investors for $DEFT and #Valour ETPs. How does #DEFTView Index help $DEFT? 1. In a world where digital assets have become available through a broad range of modalities, we, as a company, need a way to cut through the noise in a digital assets space that is dominated by the daily price fluctuations of $BTC. With the #DVIO Index, we generate fresh data driven insights on a daily, weekly, monthly, quarterly, semi-annual, and annual basis. We are not in 2020, 2022, or even 2024 for that matter - the digital assets world has evolved and so must we. It is no longer innovative to just say buy Bitcoin or buy our stock. We must demonstrate value-added insight to attract and hold attention. Now we can and we will. 2. #DVIO Index is driven by Valour ETPs. Any discussion of the DVIO Index anywhere in the world automatically and necessarily means driving the attention of institutional investors to all of our Valour ETPs. With the upcoming launches of our UCITS and AMC products, having a narrative that enables us to discuss the underlying assets from the perspective of Valour generated data-driven signals is critical. 3. The #DVIO Index periodic reports have, as a primary target audience, buy side and sell side institutional investment house analysts who increasingly seek deeper insight into how to invest in digital assets, what to invest in, and why entities / individuals are investing in particular digital assets. With regular updates, each weekly report gives the professional asset allocator new data-driven signals upon which to base investment and asset allocation decisions. These reports are available on the basis of a subscription fee but perhaps equally as important as the revenue model, is the opportunity to keep DeFi Technologies in close and regular contact with the analysts that are covering our $DEFT stock. It is no longer sufficient to just repeat "buy our stock"; we must demonstrate the additional value-add we offer on a consistent basis. 4. Crypto Foundations whose tokens are featured in our reports, particularly those that can be classified as "Top Movers", are eager to engage the investing world in order to explain why their particular ecosystems may be relevant to retail and institutional investors. In many instances, our team will call on them to provide guidance as to why there has been a particularly strong move or otherwise with their token. These conversations are useful in that they help reinforce the already strong linkages between DeFi Technologies and crypto foundations. These conversations also bring about paid sponsorship and strategic partnering opportunities for the DeFi Technologies Global Insights Symposia. 5. PR, Podcasts, and DeFi Technologies Insights Global Symposia will be primary communication vectors for our DVIO Index. Industry is always seeking commentary and fact based insights and interpretations as to what is happening within the digital assets space. With DVIO Index, we are able to provide objective macro-level contributions to any digital asset industry discussion on an on-going basis from both spot and longitudinal perspectives. In fact DVIO Index becomes more valuable over time - the more data points we have from the January 16 2026 1000.00 Base Value, the more powerful the analytical insights, AI model training capacity, and predictive signals will become. 6. Data is becoming increasingly important currency in the age of AI. With DVIO Index, DeFi Technologies is now deep in this space. Engineering an index required the scaling up of a significant data operation alongside the unique skills of Financial Quantitative and Risk Engineers. This was done in record time and all in-house. The platforms we have created enable us to conduct R&D to uncover innovative signals and propose new products. Our data operation also enables us to identify hidden opportunities. Without a doubt, DVIO Index opens a number of doors whose potential will only be fully revealed in time. AI is quickly becoming entrenched in the world of finance and quantiative engineering. With DVIO Index, $DEFT has entered this space. 7. Lastly and most importantly, by having a leading market indicator whose very name prominently incorporates both "DEFT" and "Valour" - the DEFT Valour Investment Opporunity Index helps us strategically keep the name of our company, our stock, and our flagship ETP issuing asset manager in the consciousness of the investing public. Every time #DEFTView is mentioned, there is a direct and implied reference to our company, our stock, and our ETPs. #DVIO Index is a powerful weapon for $DEFT to have in its arsenal when engaging in conversations with investors from New York to Sao Paulo, from London to Dubai, from Hong Kong to Singapore. We are a global company and now, with the DVIO Index, we have the proprietary narrative that underpins any message we issue that is designed to promote our investment products and our company.

📊 Introducing the DEFT Valour Investment Opportunity Index (DVIO) Weekly Report We are pleased to release the first edition of our weekly intelligence report tracking how institutional capital is being allocated across digital assets. The DVIO Index monitors 50 digital assets within @ValourFunds' regulated ETP ecosystem, with weights updated weekly based on assets under management and capital flow momentum. The result is a transparent, rules-based view of where regulated investor capital is actually moving, reflecting real institutional positioning rather than purely price-driven allocation. Key insights from this week’s report (February 6, 2026): 🔹 @Bitcoin continues to dominate institutional capital allocation, accounting for more than 50% of total weekly inflows. 🔹 The DVIO Altcoin Barometer (DAB) indicates a rotation toward #Bitcoin, suggesting a consolidation in investor positioning. 🔹#HYPE recorded strong positive momentum, ranking among the top assets for both weekly price performance and net inflows, signaling increasing investor conviction. 🔹 Weekly index rebalancing resulted in @iota being added to the Index, reflecting evolving capital allocation trends across the Valour ETP ecosystem. The DVIO Weekly Report provides: 🔹 Detailed capital flow analysis 🔹 Price–flow divergence indicators ⁠⁠🔹Institutional accumulation and distribution signals ⁠⁠🔹 A Watchlist tracking emerging assets outside the Top 50 for early-stage momentum signals DVIO is designed to deliver the institutional clarity digital asset markets have long needed, translating Web3 complexity into structured, decision-ready intelligence that asset managers and professional investors can analyze, interpret, and act upon. To learn more about the DVIO Index, its insights framework, and how Valour’s regulated ETP ecosystem can support digital asset portfolio strategy, risk management, and allocation decisions, please contact @forson. 📩 #DeFiTechnologies #Valour #DigitalAssets #InstitutionalFinance #DVIO #AssetAllocation #CryptoETPs @reflexivityres @DigitalStillman @HyperliquidX

DeFi Technologies Insights Symposium – São Paulo 🇧🇷 On March 16, 2026, DeFi Technologies will host an exclusive, in-person symposium in São Paulo, bringing together senior leaders across traditional finance and digital assets to discuss the next phase of institutional crypto adoption. Hosted in partnership with @mmerge_io, this private forum will feature proprietary data and market intelligence derived from the DEFT Valour Investment Opportunity (#DVIO) Index, offering participants a unique perspective on how regulated capital is shaping digital asset markets. ⁠🌐 The discussion will explore: 🔹 ⁠Where institutional capital is moving and the drivers behind those flows 🔹 ⁠Underrated opportunities emerging beneath the surface 🔹⁠ ⁠The fundamental narratives supporting today’s leading digital assets 🔹 ⁠How institutions are positioning for the next phase of growth Brazil is becoming a strategic hub in global digital assets. In December 2025, @ValourFunds expanded into the Brazilian market through the launch of BRL-denominated digital asset #ETPs listed on @B3_Oficial, alongside BDRs representing DeFi Technologies’ publicly listed shares, providing local investors access to digital assets through familiar and regulated capital market infrastructure.

From Web3 complexity to institutional clarity 💡 🇬🇧 Today at the @DAF_Global in London, during the panel discussion “Institutional Crypto Allocation: Moving Past the 5% Benchmark,” @Forson, President of DeFi Technologies, shared a candid perspective on two of the biggest challenges facing digital asset adoption: institutional ease and signal clarity. In the panel, moderated by @RyanEbner, Portfolio Manager at #Forteus, he was joined by: 🎤 Robert de Rozario, CEO & Chief Investment Officer at @alphaparty_io 🎤 @Alessandro Fuser, Head of Sales at @CryptoFinanceAG (@DeutscheBoerse) 🎤 Arunkumar Krishnakumar, VP at @inside_r3 As a publicly listed company, DeFi Technologies engages daily with shareholders, buy-side and sell-side analysts, and portfolio managers. 💼 What’s clear from those conversations is that while institutions want exposure to digital assets, complexity and understanding of the investment options remain a major barrier. Concepts like custody, staking, yield, or even knowing how to assess digital assets beyond Bitcoin and Ethereum, are still poorly understood – and that friction slows adoption. 📉 That gap is filled by @ValourFunds ETPs and structured instruments which make it easy for traditional TradFi retail and institutional investors to invest in digital assets. In order to invest effectively clear signals and research is recquired which is precisely why DeFi Technologies launched the DEFT Valour investment Opportunity Index (#DVIO). The index is designed to speak the language of traditional finance, giving equity analysts and institutional investors a clear, structured view of what is actually happening across Valour's digital asset ecosystem whilst providing clear signals based on the actual capital allocation movements of real investors across Valour's homogeneous, low friction, digital asset underlying investment universe. 📊 From long-tail assets, to investor flows, to top moving digital assets in volatile or down moving markets – the DVIO Index can provide signal-driven investor insight into #Valour ETPs and the broader digital asset space. The message is simple: institutional adoption is contingent on ease of implementation and having smart metrics that speak finance – not Web3. Tools like the DEFT Valour Investment Opportunity Index translate fast-moving digital asset markets into frameworks institutions can understand and use to assess, and ultimately allocate capital with an enhanced degree of data-driven confidence. 🤝
