GreenBank has launched two subsidiaries investing in Bitcoin and Bitcoin startups, and is the first public company in the Bitcoin space. It also has special expertise and experience in creating and listing companies on the Canadian National Stock Exchange (“CNSX”), which it can do quickly and inexpensively. GreenBank is based on the model of a London merchant bank, taking equity positions in its clients and participating in client company decisions via board of directors positions. GreenBank also facilitates mergers and acquisitions, often participating with equity in the transactions as appropriate. GreenBank focuses primarily upon Canadian publicly listed small caps in the Bitcoin, natural resource and technology industries, although its CNSX expertise is available to companies in all sectors. GreenBank became publicly listed on the Canadian National Stock Exchange in April 2013 (CNSX: GBC). At listing its over $2,500,000 investment portfolio was primarily in mineral development companies with interests in gold, nickel and copper properties. In December 2013 it established Bitcoin Canada Investments and Bitcoin Angel Capital to invest in Bitcoin and in early stage Bitcoin and other cryptocurrency focused companies, and intends in due course to to spin off these companies to GreenBank shareholders and make application to list the Bitcoin companies on the CNSX.
