VANCOUVER, British Columbia, Aug. 22, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — DMG Blockchain Solutions Inc. (TSX-V: DMGI) (OTCQB US: DMGGF) (FRANKFURT: 6AX) (“DMG” or the “Company”), a vertically integrated blockchain and cryptocurrency technology company, announces John D. (J.D.) Abouchar has been appointed as a new independent Board Director and member of the Audit Committee.

DMG also announces that independent Board Director, Nick Seto has resigned, effective August 22, 2022. Mr. Seto has served on DMG’s board for three years and has stepped into a new consulting role for DMG. We thank him for his service since DMG’s early days of mining.

Mr. Abouchar brings a wealth of experience to the DMG board. He is the founder and managing partner of Glass Creek Partners, Inc., an investment and consulting firm focusing on publicly listed emerging technology companies.

He holds a B.S. in Economics from the Wharton School at the University of Pennsylvania.

In addition to joining the Audit Committee, J.D. will be focused on corporate governance and shareholder engagement. “As we responsibly and profitably grow DMG and enter our next stage of development, J.D. will help us to target a wider pool of institutional investors, lend his capital markets experience with investment banks and US securities exchanges and further develop our corporate governance and shareholder outreach,” stated CEO Sheldon Bennett.

“Sheldon and the team at DMG have done an admirable job in founding and growing the business into the enterprise it is today,” added Mr. Abouchar. “I am honored to be joining the board and look forward to bringing my experience with business development and strategic planning to accelerate the exciting work DMG is doing in the rapidly evolving blockchain technology industry. My goal is to help management engage shareholders, evaluate uplisting opportunities, attract analyst coverage and work with the team to maximize shareholder value.”
