DeFi Technologies’ Subsidiary Valour Approved to List Valour Solana (VSOL) ETP on Brazil’s B3 Exchange

• Valour adds Solana exposure: DeFi Technologies’ subsidiary Valour has received approval from B3 to list Valour Solana (VSOL), expanding its Brazilian digital asset ETP lineup beyond Bitcoin, Ethereum, XRP, and Sui, and giving investors BRL-denominated, locally listed exposure to Solana via their existing brokerage and custody rails.
• Deepening Brazil’s product suite: VSOL is scheduled to begin trading on B3 on December 17, 2025, alongside Valour Bitcoin (BTCV), Valour Ethereum (ETHV), Valour XRP (XRPV), and Valour SUI (VSUI), further strengthening Valour’s foothold in Brazil as its first major market outside Europe.
• Solana access through regulated rails: By adding Solana to its Brazilian ETP offering, Valour aims to provide institutional-grade, exchange-traded access to one of the most active Layer 1 ecosystems globally, aligning with growing demand for diversified digital asset exposure on B3.

TORONTO, Dec. 16, 2025 /PRNewswire/ – DeFi Technologies Inc. (the “Company” or “DeFi Technologies“) (Nasdaq: DEFT) (CBOE CA: DEFI) (GR: R9B), a financial technology company bridging the gap between traditional capital markets and decentralized finance (“DeFi“), is pleased to announce that its subsidiary, Valour Inc., and Valour Digital Securities Limited (together, “Valour“), a leading issuer of exchange traded products (“ETPs“) has received approval from B3 S.A. – Brasil, Bolsa, Balcão (“B3” or the “B3 Exchange”) to list Valour Solana (VSOL), a digital asset ETP providing exposure to the Solana network.

VSOL is scheduled to begin trading on B3 on December 17, 2025, via BDR on ETP, the same date that Valour’s previously announced Brazilian ETPs – Valour Bitcoin (BTCV), Valour Ethereum (ETHV), Valour XRP (XRPV), and Valour SUI (VSUI) – are expected to commence trading. Together, these products will provide Brazilian investors with locally listed, BRL-denominated exposure to multiple leading digital assets, accessible through the same brokerage and custody rails they already use for equities and ETFs.

This latest approval represents a follow-on expansion of Valour’s Brazilian shelf, positioning Solana alongside Bitcoin, Ethereum, XRP, and Sui as part of a diversified digital asset offering on B3.

Expanding Valour’s ETP Platform in Brazil

Valour currently offers approximately 100 digital asset ETPs across Europe and continues to operate the largest selection of digital asset ETPs globally, listed on major venues including Spotlight Stock Market (Sweden), Börse Frankfurt (Germany), SIX Swiss Exchange (Switzerland), London Stock Exchange (England), and Euronext (Paris and Amsterdam). Its lineup spans:

• Layer 1 and Layer 2 networks
• Modular data availability and tokenization infrastructure
• Gaming and creator ecosystems
• Community and governance tokens

This provides diversified digital asset exposure within regulated, exchange-traded market rails.

The approval to list VSOL on B3 via BDR on ETP further advances Valour’s international expansion strategy, which includes Latin America, Africa, the Middle East, Asia, and other developing regions globally. Brazil marks Valour’s first major foothold outside of Europe, with B3 serving as a regional hub for equities, ETFs, and an increasingly broad suite of digital asset-linked products and derivatives.

Brazil: Deepening a Strategic Market

Brazil has emerged as Latin America’s largest and most cohesive financial market, with more than 213 million people connected through a single language and a unified regulatory and capital-markets infrastructure. It is also the region’s largest crypto economy, with hundreds of billions of U.S. dollars in crypto assets transacted annually and growing participation from both retail and institutional investors.

Against this backdrop, Valour’s regulated, exchange-traded BDR on ETPs on B3 – now including Solana through VSOL – aim to provide Brazilian institutions and qualified investors with institutional-grade access to digital assets, combining transparent on-exchange pricing, local settlement, and familiar governance standards.

Management Commentary

“Listing Valour Solana (VSOL) on B3 is a natural next step following the approval of our Bitcoin, Ethereum, XRP, and Sui products,” said Johan Wattenström, Chief Executive Officer and Executive Chairman of DeFi Technologies and Co-Founder of Valour. “Solana has become one of the most active Layer 1 ecosystems in the world, and we are pleased to make regulated, exchange-traded exposure to SOL available to Brazilian investors through the B3 Exchange.”

“Across Europe, we’ve seen strong demand for diversified exposure that goes beyond Bitcoin and Ethereum, and Solana has been a major part of that story,” said Andrew Forson, President of DeFi Technologies and Chief Growth Officer of Valour. “Adding VSOL to our Brazilian lineup builds on our initial four ETPs and further rounds out the product suite we are offering on B3. Over time, we expect this broader shelf to support additional Brazilian listings, structured products, and customized solutions tailored to the needs of local investors.”
