    INX, the regulated marketplace for trading security tokens and tokenized real-world assets, and Backed, a pioneer in real-world asset tokenization, today announced the listing of tokenized stock on the INX platform for eligible non-US users. This groundbreaking partnership begins with the launch of bNVDA, a tokenized security backed one-to-one by NVIDIA Corp (NVDA) stock, issued on the Ethereum network, with the blockchain ledger conveying ownership.

    The Future of Investing

    This launch is a monumental step towards democratizing access to traditional financial assets and merging them with the 24/7 liquidity and accessibility of the digital asset space. Non-US eligible investors will be able to trade bNVDA with the ease and speed of cryptocurrencies, outside of traditional stock market hours, and with the ability to fund their account with crypto. Self-custodial securities open up new possibilities for traders. This is only the start, with more assets coming in the pipeline, such as ETFs, Bonds, or even commodities arriving on INX in the future. Backed’s tokenized public securities are called bTokens, which are permissionless ERC-20 tokens that can be transferred between wallets freely.

    “We are thrilled to have Backed as one of our tokenization and issuance partners, and we’re excited to initiate the listing of their securities in our marketplace.” said Shy Datika, CEO of INX. “This partnership represents another milestone in our journey to enable the trading of real-world assets tokens. We are committed to advancing the accessibility and efficiency of the tokenized asset market, ushering in a new era of global finance.”

    Adam Levi, Backed Co-Founder, added, “Crypto traders have been seeking a seamless bridge to the traditional market – and tokenized stocks provide exactly that. bNVDA is just the beginning; we envision a future where investors can build diversified portfolios of tokenized real-world assets directly on the blockchain. No need to offramp, and users can self custody their entire portfolio.”

    INX provides a marketplace for tokenized assets and their partnership with Backed brings the first tokenized share to this market. This means that Backed’s bNVDA can now be traded on INX, which integrates crypto, fiat, and security tokens into a unified marketplace. Traders can now benefit from 24/7 availability to trade bNVDA, and fractional share ownership.

    Backed’s tokenized assets, including bNVDA, are issued under an EU prospectus, allowing eligible investors to have full transparency of the products. Holders of bNVDA have the primary claim to the collateral value, in this case, Nvidia stock, which is held with a licensed custodian under an account control agreement. Distributed ledgers (blockchains) are the primary way that ownership is defined.

    With Republic recently reaffirming its commitment to form a strong partnership with INX, and Backed completing their Series A funding round, the ecosystem for tokenized securities is becoming increasingly exciting. With partnerships like this, true interoperability and composability is becoming a reality.

    Key Benefits:

    ●     Self-Custody: Hold the securities directly in a wallet that only you have control over.

    ●     24/7 Trading: Trade anytime, anywhere, not limited by traditional market hours.

    ●     DeFi ready: Use your tokenized stocks as collateral for loans or within other DeFi applications.

    ●     Blockchain Security: Leverage the inherent security and transparency of blockchain technology.

    ●     Access: Available to non-US qualified investors across multiple jurisdictions.

    ●     All On-chain: Fund your account with crypto and invest in tokenized stocks.

    How to Get Started

    Right now, to trade bNVDA, investors need to create an account on the INX platform and complete the required verification process.

    CFO transitioning to the Board of Directors, interim CFO appointed

    The Company further announces that John B. Kennedy will be stepping down from his role as CFO and joining the Board of Directors, effective September 30, 2024.

    While John will remain with the company as a member of the Board, he is starting a new chapter in his life to take over a non-profit organization, and the Company wishes him the very best in this new endeavor.

    Jack Cartwright, who has been working with the Company in a senior finance role over the last 3 months, will assume the role of interim CFO effective immediately while the Company conducts a search for a permanent CFO.

    Jack Cartwright is a successful financial and operational leader with over 20 years of corporate finance experience ranging from high growth early-stage tech firms to highly technical complex global businesses. His depth of experiences includes SaaS, B2C marketplaces, AdTech, telecommunications, carbon and clean energy, and logistics.

    Based in Austin, Texas, Jack was previously CFO at two other technology firms and has held a variety of positions in finance. He has led several M&A transactions on both the sell side and buy side, and he has also led several fundraising efforts with large, institutional investors.

    Jack has also led many post-closing integration projects involving advanced reporting optimization, including the financial integration of two public software companies. He led the acquisition and concurrent integration of 4 Fintech companies with audit and IPO filings.

    Jack holds an MBA (The University of Texas at Austin) with a concentration in finance, accounting & strategy, and a Master of Science degree in Accounting (University of Miami). He was formerly an officer in the United States Army.

    The appointment of Jack Cartwright as interim CFO is subject to the approval of the TSX Venture Exchange.

    The Company’s Chairman, James J. Hickman, wrote, “This company is at a tremendous inflection point: we finally have Thunderbird in production, combined with ample funding which should carry us to profitability. John was instrumental in helping us achieve this. Now that the Company is transitioning to its next phase, we wish John the absolute best as he transitions to his next phase. And we’re grateful that he is remaining with the business as a Board member.”

    “I am incredibly proud of the achievements the Inspire team has made in the nearly five years since I came on board,” said Kennedy, “I am equally as excited about the future potential and opportunities as the Company moves towards the production and sales phase with its first product, Thunderbird I. However, it is time for me to take on a completely new challenge, in the nonprofit sector, while still staying involved with Inspire as a member of the Board of Directors.”
