Nexo is a cryptocurrency-backed loan platform that allows users to borrow fiat US dollars by using cryptocurrencies as collateral. To ensure the security of crypto funds, Nexo is partnering with Nexo partners with BitGo, a blockchain security firm backed by Goldman Sachs.
On Monday, Nexo announced that it would hold a dividend distribution worth $912,071. To become eligible for the dividend payments, investors have to go through advanced verification procedures and store their Nexo tokens on the platform before December 5, 2018. The payment will be made on December 15.
“A meeting of the Board of Directors of Nexo Capital Inc., convened today, approved a decision regarding the distribution of an interim dividend of $912,071.00 for the financial period through November 30, 2018,” the announcement reads.
The dividend will be offered in Nexo tokens based on the NEXO/USD rate of US$0.104256, which was recorded at the close of November 30.
The announcement seems to have attracted investors’ interest, as the price exploded despite the overall bearish sentiment, with the top ten coins being in the red.
