VANCOUVER, British Columbia, May 27, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — DMG Blockchain Solutions Inc. (TSX-V: DMGI) (OTCQB US: DMGGF) (FRANKFURT: 6AX) ('DMG' or the 'Company'), a vertically integrated data center and digital asset technology company, announces that DMG's digital asset custody subsidiary, Systemic Trust Company ('STC') has added the capability to send bitcoin in a regulatory compliant and carbon neutral manner.
This enablement is the keystone that bridges the key pillars of DMG's carbon-neutral Bitcoin ecosystem – STC, whose platform is built on Fireblocks' custody solution, and Terra Pool, the world's first carbon neutral Bitcoin mining pool. By utilizing Fireblocks, a proven and trusted solution for wallet infrastructure, users can be assured of the security and integrity of their digital asset holdings when they are stored and subsequently sent. In turn, DMG's Petra technology empowers bitcoin transactions from STC's Petra-enabled wallets to be sent via Terra Pool, which removes the risk of commingling with nefarious actors and utilizes energy from carbon neutral energy sources, a highly sought after capability increasingly demanded by financial institutions globally.
DMG's CEO, Sheldon Bennett, commented: 'Integrating Petra technology with Fireblocks' custody solution achieves a key milestone for enabling DMG's carbon neutral Bitcoin ecosystem, as it allows not only Systemic Trust being able to send bitcoin in a regulatory-compliant and carbon neutral manner but also the much larger ecosystem of Fireblocks' 2000+ customers. Our goal remains to provide financial institutions, government and enterprises choice as to how they transact bitcoin, and this is a key advancement that can broadly give them that choice, all the while advancing our burgeoning collaboration with Fireblocks.'

Vice President JD Vance Just Delivered Incredible News to Bitcoin Investors
Vice President JD Vance gave the keynote speech at the Bitcoin 2025 conference in Las Vegas. Vance highlighted recent moves by the White House to create pro-crypto policies. Vance also emphasized that Bitcoin is a long-term strategic asset for the government, as well as a potential source of competitive advantage. 10 stocks we like better than Bitcoin › On May 28, Vice President JD Vance gave the keynote speech at the Bitcoin (CRYPTO: BTC) 2025 conference in Las Vegas. He offered a broad overview of what's coming next for crypto, as well as a few insights into how the White House is thinking about Bitcoin right now. Last year, President Donald Trump attended this same event, outlining the major pro-Bitcoin policies of his 2024 campaign platform. So now that top political leaders are openly embracing crypto, what should Bitcoin investors expect? A major focus of Vance's speech was a reiteration of the pro-crypto regulatory approach of the Trump administration. In just five months, the White House has already taken a number of big steps -- including a major shakeup at the Securities and Exchange Commission to make it more crypto-friendly, and the creation of the Strategic Bitcoin Reserve. All of this is good news for Bitcoin investors, of course. It opens the door to more innovation, economic growth, and wealth for everyday Americans. As Vance pointed out in his keynote, millions of Americans now own Bitcoin. So any moves that can help Bitcoin grow and prosper will help everyday Americans as they save for the future. And there's more good news on the way. Next up, says Vance, is new legislation for dollar-pegged stablecoins, as well as a comprehensive regulatory framework for crypto that will help to establish the official rules of the road for Bitcoin. Once that's in place, the mainstream adoption of crypto can really start. Institutions will no longer have an excuse not to get involved with Bitcoin. Vance also emphasized that the White House is thinking about Bitcoin as a long-term strategic asset. That was the stated purpose of creating the Strategic Bitcoin Reserve back in March. The next major step, says Vance, is new legislation that will codify the Strategic Bitcoin Reserve in law. Otherwise, the next administration could just as easily reverse the existing executive order with a new executive order of its own. There's a key reason the White House is thinking about Bitcoin as a "strategically important asset" these days. And that's because Bitcoin represents the sort of American values -- innovation, entrepreneurship, freedom, and lack of censorship -- that are anathema to countries such as China. In fact, as Vance pointed out, the U.S. should look to use Bitcoin as a source of competitive advantage against China. All of that should give hope to current Bitcoin investors. There's simply too much invested in Bitcoin for the U.S. government to back off now. The government is going all-in on Bitcoin. As a result, crypto has moved from the fringe to the mainstream. All of that sounds great, of course. It's great to hear that the government is embracing Bitcoin. It's fantastic to hear that Bitcoin could become the answer to some of the economic and strategic problems currently facing the Trump administration. However, it has become impossible to ignore the potential conflicts of interest that may exist. Vance, by his own admission, holds close to $500,000 worth of Bitcoin. Just days before the conference, Donald Trump's media company announced that it was planning to buy $2.5 billion worth of Bitcoin. And Eric Trump and Donald Trump Jr. (both of whom showed up at the Bitcoin 2025 conference) are engaged in Bitcoin ventures of their own. Even if there is no wrongdoing involved, the optics aren't great. It's the reason many people now think that tighter safeguards should be imposed on politicians to prevent them from enacting certain policies or taking certain actions that could be used to enrich themselves. The White House has given a strong signal of its support for Bitcoin. Crypto investors no longer need to worry about regulatory overreach, or about government policies specifically designed to limit innovation in the crypto sector. All of that is incredible news for Bitcoin. Suddenly, all the sky-high price forecasts for Bitcoin no longer seem so unattainable. As long as you are willing to buy and hold for the long haul, investing in Bitcoin right now might be the best way to turbo-charge the performance of your entire portfolio for years to come.

Innergex and MMBC Announce Construction Financial Close of the Mesgi'g Ugju's'n 2 Wind Project
LONGUEUIL, QC, May 30, 2025 /CNW/ - Innergex Renewable Energy Inc. (TSX: INE) ("Innergex" or the "Corporation") and Mi'gmawei Mawiomi Business Corporation ("MMBC") are pleased to announce the closing of the financing for the construction and operation of the 102 MW Mesgi'g Ugju's'n 2 Wind Project. The financing consists in a $163.9 million green loan, an interconnection bridge loan of $41.0 million and a LC facility of $10.2 million with CIBC, Desjardins Group and National Bank of Canada as Lenders, Joint Bookrunners, Coordinating Lead Arrangers and Green Loan Coordinators. The financing was informed by the Green Loan Principles and the Desjardins Group acted as Administrative Agent for the senior lenders syndicate. "We are proud to reach financial close on Mesgi'g Ugju's'n 2 and to continue advancing a project that is deeply rooted in collaboration, sustainability and regional economic impact," said Michel Letellier, President and Chief Executive Officer of Innergex. "We thank MMBC and the Mi'gmaq communities for their continued trust and partnership. This project is a powerful example of how strong Indigenous-led partnerships and clean energy development go hand in hand to generate economic and environmental value." "This project represents more than megawatts on the grid, it is a testament to Mi'gmaq leadership in the energy transition," said Frederic Vicaire, CEO of MMBC. "Through our equal partnership with Innergex and the support of key financial institutions, we are demonstrating that Indigenous-led clean energy projects can be ambitious, innovative and deeply rooted in reconciliation and economic empowerment." Mesgi'g Ugju's'n 2 is a 102 MW wind project to be located in the MRC d'Avignon and an extension to the existing 150 MW Mesgi'g Ugju's'n wind facility commissioned in 2016. The wind project is the result of a 50-50 renewed partnership between Innergex and the three Mi'gmaq communities in Quebec – Gesgapegiag, Gespeg and Listuguj – represented by MMBC. The project recently obtained the government decree authorizing construction and major contract negotiations have advanced significantly, including the execution of the Balance of Plant agreement (BOPA) with Borea Construction and the Turbine Supply Agreement (TSA) with Nordex. These key milestones enable the teams to proceed with construction preparation and pave the way for activities to ramp up in the coming months. Upon its commissioning scheduled in 2026, the electricity to be produced by Mesgi'g Ugju's'n 2 will be sold under a 30-year "take-or-pay" power purchase agreement indexed to 25% inflation with Hydro-Québec. The project financing includes a subordinated construction loan of $92.5 million and an equity loan of $15.4 million provided by a Canadian financial institution, demonstrating the innovative structuring approach behind this Indigenous-led wind project. Plan A Capital, as mandated financial advisor for MMBC, structured and sourced an equity loan from a Canadian financial institution to Mesgi'g Ugju's'n 2 Holding L.P. About Mi'gmawei Mawiomi Business CorporationMi'gmawei Mawiomi Business Corporation ("MMBC") is an organization established by the three Mi'gmaq communities located on the territory of Gespe'gewa'gi, namely, Gesgapegiag, Gespeg and Listuguj.

Bitcoin Suddenly Braced For $7 Trillion ‘Critical' Price Tipping Point After Stark BlackRock Warning
06/01 update below. This post was originally published on May 30 Bitcoin has fallen sharply since hitting an all-time high last week, down 6% despite the U.S. vice president JD Vance issuing a huge bitcoin prediction. Front-run Donald Trump, the White House and Wall Street by subscribing now to Forbes' CryptoAsset & Blockchain Advisor where you can "uncover blockchain blockbusters poised for 1,000% plus gains!" The bitcoin price has rocketed over the last two years, turbo-charged by Wall Street adoption led by the world's largest asset manager BlackRock and then U.S. president Donald Trump's embrace of the technology (with Elon Musk quietly plotting what could be a bitcoin price game-changer). Now, as fears swirl the U.S. dollar could be teetering on the verge of collapse, a serious BlackRock warning that quantum computing could pose an existential risk to bitcoin has been escalated by a Google research paper that found encryption-breaking quantum computers could be a lot closer than previously thought. Sign up now for the free CryptoCodex—A daily five-minute newsletter for traders, investors and the crypto-curious that will get you up to date and keep you ahead of the bitcoin and crypto market bull run BlackRock chief executive Larry Fink has emerged as one of the most bullish voices supporting ... More bitcoin on Wall Street, helping the bitcoin price boom. 'This is a 20-fold decrease in the number of qubits from our previous estimate,' Google Quantum AI researcher Craig Gidney wrote, referring to the number of quantum computer qubits needed to break a public-key encryption algorithm similar to that used by bitcoin. 'If this is even remotely true, combined with everything else happening right now, the only safe trade are hard assets and, dare I say, gold,' investor Chamath Palihapitiya, a vocal supporter of bitcoin who claims to have first bought some when the bitcoin price was just $100, posted to X in response to the paper. 06/01 update: The bitcoin price has now plummeted by almost 10% from its all-time high of $112,000 per bitcoin, falling to just over $103,000 and fast approaching the closely-watched $100,000 level. "Next week will be critical for both the crypto market," analysts with 10x Research led by Markus Thielen wrote in an emailed note that suggested long-term bitcoin holders are beginning to sell. This coming week will see slew of economic and labor market data—topped by Friday's monthly U.S. jobs report—as well as U.S. president Donald Trump's controversial "big, beautiful" tax bill coming to the Senate and legal back-and-forth expected over Trump's market-crashing barrage of global trade tariffs. Meanwhile, bullish bitcoin price analysts are predicting small changes in 'sentiment' could trigger outsized market swings, with huge volumes of cash still sitting on the sidelines. 'With roughly $7 trillion still parked in money market funds and another $2 trillion in fixed income ETFs, even a modest shift in risk sentiment could redirect meaningful capital into crypto and other high-beta assets,' Matt Mena, research strategist at crypto exchange-traded fund (ETF) company 21Shares, said in emailed comments. 'If bitcoin breaks out of the $105,000 to $110,000 range with conviction, we could see a sharp move to $120,000 and, more importantly, reach our previously year-end price target of $138,500 per bitcoin by the end of the summer.' Earlier this month, BlackRock quietly added a serious warning about quantum computing to the list of risks to its huge spot bitcoin exchange-traded fund (ETF). BlackRock, which manages after around $10 trillion worth of assets for investors, spearheaded Wall Street's campaign to bring a long-awaited spot bitcoin ETF to market in 2023, with a fleet of funds debuting in January 2024. The fund now holds around 3% of the 21 million bitcoin that will ever exist, worth $70 billion at the current bitcoin price, which some have warned could be giving BlackRock outsized control over the network. Sign up now for CryptoCodex—A free, daily newsletter for the crypto-curious The bitcoin price has rocketed higher, hitting an all-time high of around $112,000 per bitcoin last ... More week before dropping back. 'If quantum computing technology is able to advance […] it could potentially undermine the viability of many of the cryptographic algorithms used across the world's information technology infrastructure, including the cryptographic algorithms used for digital assets like bitcoin,' BlackRock's amended regulatory filing for its bitcoin fund read. The quantum computing risk to bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies has exploded recently, with tech giants including Google making strides in quantum computing research. 'At this point, no blockchain is ready to withstand a quantum attack when this becomes possible, which could very well be much earlier than 2030,' David Carvalho, the chief executive of decentralized post-quantum infrastructure blockchain Naoris Protocol, said in earlier emailed comments that warned bitcoin is 'sleepwalking into a disaster.'
