This shift aligns with Blocktrade's dedication to delivering enduring value and services to its customers, shareholders, and partners.

The infusion of expertise and resources from the fresh group of investors will empower Blocktrade to enrich and broaden its solutions, offering comprehensive financial services and fostering a dynamic ecosystem for enterprises and individuals.

Fred Kaasik, the newly appointed CEO of Blocktrade, looks forward to steering Blocktrade through its forthcoming expansion phase. Leveraging expertise in traditional finance, capital markets, and compliance, Kaasik intends to transform the company into a contemporary financial institution. The strategic approach involves a two-pronged strategy focusing on expanding trading pairs, reducing fees, streamlining onboarding processes, and readying for upcoming regulatory developments.
