Mega Matrix Corp. Announces Establishment of a Joint Venture With Bit Digital, Inc. to Jointly Provide Digital Assets Staking Services

PALO ALTO, Calif., March 07, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Mega Matrix Corp. (“MTMT” or the “Company”) (NYSE American: MPU), today announced that its wholly-owned Singapore subsidiary, Saving Digital Pte. Ltd. (“Saving”) has formed a joint venture with Bit Digital, Inc. (NASDAQ: BTBT) (“Bit Digital”) by entering into a shareholders’ agreement (the “Agreement”) with MarsProtocol Technologies Pte. Ltd., the joint venture company (the “JV Company”), to jointly provide proof-of-stake technology tools for digital assets through the staking platform “MarsProtocol”, an institutional grade non-custodial staking technology (the “Joint Venture”). The JV Company will be domiciled in Singapore. Before offering any services, the JV Company will undertake a regulatory review to ensure that its services are fully compliant with the laws of Singapore and any other nation in which it seeks to conduct business. Pursuant to the Agreement, Saving will control 60% of the Joint Venture.

Bit Digital is a sustainability-focused generator of digital assets with large-scale bitcoin mining operations. Bit Digital is headquartered in New York with operations throughout North America. As of December 20, Bit Digital had 7,904 ETH and 2,004 sETH-h with a combined worth of approximately $12.1 million. 2,164 ETH were actively staked as of that date, using either native staking or liquid staking protocols. Bit Digital intends to continue accumulating Ethereum and stake substantially all of its ETH position over time.

Following the transition by Ethereum on September 15, 2022 from proof-of-work (PoW) to a proof-of-stake (PoS) consensus mechanism (the “Merge”), Ethereum shifted to a PoS validation system where validators stake their ETH into a smart contract on Ethereum to serve as collateral that can be destroyed if the validator behaves dishonestly or lazily. The validator (selected randomly) is then responsible for processing the blockchain transactions, storing data and adding new blocks to the blockchain. To become a validator on Ethereum, a participant must stake 32 ETH. Through MarsProtocol, the Joint Venture will seek to provide non-custodial staking tools whereby users’ private keys are not stored in its database to ensure the safety of its users’ digital assets.

“We are very excited to cooperate with BTBT to jointly explore the digital assets staking business, and we are looking forward to providing proof-of-stake technology tools for digital assets through the Joint Venture, which will enable users to earn ETH rewards through an easy-to-use and non-custodial staking platform,” said Mr. Yucheng Hu, CEO of Mega Matrix Corp.

About Mega Matrix: Mega Matrix Corp. (the “Company”) is a holding company located in Palo Alto, California with four subsidiaries: Saving Digital Pte. Ltd., a Singapore corporation (“Saving”), MarsProtocol Inc., an exempted company incorporated under the laws of the Cayman Islands, Mega Metaverse Corp., a California corporation (“Mega”) and JetFleet Management Corp. a California corporation (“JetFleet”).
