The latest announcement is out from DeFi Technologies ( (TSE:DEFI) ).

DeFi Technologies issued a clarifying update on persistent discrepancies it has identified between reported share positions across various intermediaries, including DTC, CDS and Broadridge, based on multiple analytical reports obtained since June 2025 from Shareholder Intelligence Services. The company has contacted 14 broker-dealers with the largest reported imbalances and, from five responses so far, has been told that the differences largely stem from settlement timing, reporting variations between intermediaries, securities lending and currency-related reporting differences; management said that, based on information reviewed to date, these imbalances are not believed to have affected voting outcomes at the 2025 shareholder meeting, and it plans to continue its inquiries and monitoring. Separately, DeFi Technologies announced the immediate resignation of director Stefan Hascoet, who had served on the board since June 2023, marking a change in its board composition as it continues to address questions around trading irregularities and share ownership transparency.
