BIGG DIGITAL ASSETS ANNOUNCES ACCEPTANCE OF NETCOINS CIRO MEMBERSHIP APPLICATION

The membership application to the Canadian Investment Regulatory Organization (CIRO) filed on May 27, 2026, by Bigg Digital Assets Inc.'s wholly owned subsidiary, Netcoins Inc., has been accepted by CIRO.

As previously announced, by filing the CIRO membership application, Netcoins has satisfied a key regulatory milestone in connection with the undertaking provided to the British Columbia Securities Commission and the Ontario Securities Commission. For additional information on the exemptive relief decision and the undertaking, please refer to the company's press release dated Sept. 29, 2025.

"This acceptance reflects years of deliberate work to build a crypto platform that meets the highest regulatory standards in Canada. CIRO membership is the next chapter in that journey, and we're committed to engaging fully and diligently through the review process. Netcoins exists to give Canadians a trustworthy place to participate in digital asset markets, and this milestone reinforces that mission," said Netcoins chief executive officer Fraser Matthews.

As previously disclosed, Netcoins currently operates as a restricted dealer under the Canadian Securities Administrators' framework for crypto asset trading platforms and as a money services business registered with FINTRAC. The exemptive relief decision under which Netcoins operates sets out terms and conditions, including specified milestones, that Netcoins must satisfy to carry on its business in compliance with Canadian securities laws.

Under the terms of the undertaking, Netcoins was required to submit a complete CIRO membership application by June 1, 2026. Following CIRO's formal acceptance of the application, Netcoins confirms that none of the triggering events under the undertaking have occurred. Accordingly, Netcoins may continue to operate under its restricted dealer registration until CIRO approves its membership.
