VANCOUVER, BC, April 1, 2026 /CNW/ - Intellistake Technologies Corp. (CSE: ISTK) (OTCQB: ISTKF) (FSE: E41) ("Intellistake" or the "Company"), today announces ST0x as the technology platform in which it completed a previously announced US$150,000 investment in February 2026 (see prior press release).
At the time of the original announcement, the Company referred to ST0x as the "Tokenized Securities Technology Company." With ST0x continuing to reach operational milestones, Intellistake is now providing shareholders with additional detail on this investment.

About ST0x
ST0x group is a tokenized equities platform that enables publicly listed shares to be represented, traded and settled using blockchain-based digital infrastructure. The platform's regulated issuer, S01 Issuer GmbH, a German limited liability company, issues tokens as debt instruments under an EU Base Prospectus approved by the FMA on 30 March 2026. Each token carries a contractual Right of Exchange entitling the holder to the corresponding underlying shares held in segregated custody.
The prospectus approval enables public offer of tokenized equity products across Europe. The platform is operational with trading activity underway, currently offering tokenized representations of major US-listed equities and exchange-traded funds. ST0x has indicated plans for continued expansion across European and international markets.
Unlike cash-settled alternatives, ST0x tokens are backed by a right of exchange for physical shares, giving holders the contractual right to take delivery of the underlying shares. The tokens are standard ERC-20 tokens, allowing them to operate within existing decentralized finance infrastructure without requiring counterparty whitelisting.
Strategic Relevance to Intellistake
Intellistake's investment in ST0x is part of the Company's broader strategy to position itself at the technology layer between traditional capital markets and blockchain-based systems.
ST0x provides the Company with a strategic position in a platform working to build the systems and controls that allow publicly traded securities to operate on blockchain networks. A report published by Ripple, citing projections from Boston Consulting Group, estimates the tokenized asset market could grow from US$600 billion in 2025 to US$18.9 trillion by 2033.1 Intellistake believes its early positioning in this market is a strategic advantage.
The relationship with ST0x also supports Intellistake's previously announced expression of interest in the CSA's Project Tokenization initiative. This initiative is examining how tokenized financial products intersect with Canadian securities laws. Intellistake expects this relationship with ST0x to inform and strengthen its participation in this process.
Jason Dussault, Chief Executive Officer of Intellistake, commented:
"ST0x has continued to make strong operational progress, including obtaining EU Base Prospectus approval from the FMA. We are pleased to provide our shareholders with a clearer picture of what we are building toward.
Regulators are actively examining tokenization of public equities and institutions are beginning to engage with it. Intellistake's role is to be positioned at the technology layer as this transition unfolds. ST0x is building exactly that."
Nick Magliochetti, CEO of ST0x commented:
"Our platform is now operational and our EU Base Prospectus has been approved by the FMA, enabling public offer across Europe. We are building the technology that enables traditional securities to operate on blockchain-based digital systems. As we expand across international markets, we look forward to continuing to work with Intellistake as we pursue this objective together."
