UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED INTERIM FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE SIX-MONTH PERIOD
ENDED 30th JUNE 2020
Coinsilium Group Limited ("Coinsilium" or the "Company"), the Blockchain,
DeFi and Crypto Finance venture operator, is pleased to announce its
unaudited consolidated interim financial statements for the six months ended
30 June 2020.
The period under review was, in the main, one of preparation and transition,
paving the way for the Company's transition from an investor in early-stage
start-ups to a focused Blockchain, DeFi and Crypto-Finance venture operator,

Now in its fifth year of operations as a listed company, the Directors
remain focused on delivering its vision of creating long term value for
shareholders via exposure to a carefully profiled range of high-growth
opportunities in the fast evolving blockchain technology sector.
Corporate Highlights:
· Strategic Investment of GBP250,000 completed with IOV Labs ("IOV"), a
Gibraltar registered company and parent to RSK, by way of a private
placement in the Company. IOV Labs subscribed for 9,434,000 shares at
2.65p per share for an interest of 6.94% in Coinsilium's issued share
capital. Funds to be used towards joint initiatives between the Coinsilium
and IOV and to further the growth and development of the Company.
· In tandem with the Strategic Investment, IOV and Coinsilium executed a
Memorandum of Understanding ('MOU') to establish a Joint Venture Company
(JVC) in Singapore to promote and commercialise RSK's products, services
and technologies, predominantly in the Asian markets and to promote the
adoption in the region of the RIF token which powers the ecosystem of
solutions developed by RSK, their partners and independent developers
around the world. Eddy Travia, Chief Executive of Coinsilium, to be
appointed as Director of the JV Company and to act as IOV's Regional
Director for Asia-Pacific.
· Coinsilium appointed as advisor to Kesholabs, an Africa focused
blockchain venture builder and development studio.
Commenting, Malcolm Palle, Chairman of Coinsilium said "The Strategic
Investment Agreement with IOV Labs and the establishment of the IOV Labs
Asia JV represents a transformational event and significant milestone for
Coinsilium, laying the foundations for a unique and exciting strategic
collaboration between Coinsilium and IOV Labs. The Board believes that this
new commercial relationship presents a real opportunity to create meaningful
value for shareholders and is particularly significant for the long-term
growth of the Company from the perspective of Coinsilium's transition
towards its new strategy as a focused Blockchain, DeFi and Crypto-Finance
venture operator, as announced post period on 13 July 2020.
"The Board therefore believes that the Company is well positioned to
capitalise on new and substantial opportunities in the burgeoning
Decentralised Finance (DeFi) and Crypto Finance sector, including the
development of products, solutions and services in Crypto Lending, Crypto
Staking and Stable Assets, both from within the scope of its joint venture
with IOV and also from Coinsilium's operational base in Gibraltar, which is
fast becoming a pre-eminent global regulatory jurisdiction for innovative
financial technology, and where Coinsilium's core operations are now well
established.
"Finally, the Board would like to once again thank all shareholders,
partners and team members for their continued support and we look forward to
providing the market with regular progress updates at this exciting and
transformational time for the Company."

Outlook
The Covid19 Pandemic declared on 11 March 2020 has entirely changed the
global economic landscape, affecting billions of individuals and millions of
companies around the world and triggering a crash in both the financial and
crypto markets. Despite the major repercussions we continue to see in the
real economy, the crypto markets staged a fast recovery from their March
lows and have since continued to demonstrate a significant degree of
strength and resilience.
The social distancing measures and travel disruptions around the world have
highlighted our reliance on technology and have triggered a wave of
digitisation processes amongst SMEs, Corporates and the Governments of the
world. This digitisation has increased awareness and interest in
cryptocurrencies (currencies whose operation does not rely on a physical
artifact) and blockchain technology which minimises trust for small and
large exchanges of value or data via the internet.
This renewed interest in cryptocurrencies, both as an inflation hedge as
well as a speculative asset, is set against a backdrop of a multi-trillion
dollar money printing policy in the US and the innovation we are witnessing
in the decentralised finance (DeFi) and Crypto Finance space.
The Company is now seeing some exciting opportunities in the DeFi sector and
Management looks forward to unveiling some exciting new projects during the
final quarter of 2020 and going forwards into 2021. Given the current pace
of development and burgeoning pace of growth in Decentralised Finance and
Crypto Finance, the Board believes that Coinsilium is well placed to
capitalise on a plethora of new opportunities with the potential to generate
meaningful revenue streams and growth for Coinsilium in the near to medium
term. We therefore look to the future with renewed confidence and enthusiasm
at this exciting time in this fast maturing technology sector.
Post Period Highlights:

Venture Agreement ("JVA") between IOV Labs and Coinsilium to form a Joint

The JVC is to be financed by IOV by way of a loan which is to be repaid
from the future revenues from the JVC. Eddy Travia, Coinsilium's CEO, to
represent Coinsilium as a Director of the JVC. The business of the JVC is
to promote and commercialise IOV's products, services and technologies,
principally in the Asian markets.
· 13 July 2020 - Coinsilium Group announced a Strategic Business Review of
the Company's operations and equity investments to align the Company in
readiness for its participation within the recently announced IOV Joint
Venture (JV) and to ensure that the Company is optimally positioned and
resourced to capitalise on new and substantial opportunities in the
burgeoning Decentralised Finance (DeFi) and Crypto Finance sector
