Hamburg, 13. December 2017

SwipeStox is proud to announce that it is one of the world's first companies to offer cryptocurrencies as a funding method via the SwipeStox App to trade the financial markets.

SwipeStox, a 100% NAGA Group AG company, is now able to offer its users the option to fund trading accounts with Bitcoin, Bitcoin Cash, Dash, Litecoin and Ethereum via the SwipeStox App. As one of the world's first companies offering Forex, CFDs and Indices trading, the mobile-focused trading app will now allow its real-money users to bridge the gap between classical funding methods and the increasingly popular cryptocurrencies.

"SwipeStox has experienced strong growth throughout the year amongst its user base who trade stocks, forex and indices through the power of a social network. After the successful launch of cryptocurrency CFDs, such as Bitcoin, Ethereum or Litecoin, SwipeStox now takes it to the next level by allowing all users to use cryptocurrencies as collateral via a real-time calculation to fund their SwipeStox trading accounts. "We've seen a huge demand to allow crypto-investors to use their tokens in order to participate in trading the global markets", says Benjamin Bilski, Founder & Executive Director at The NAGA Group AG.

In addition, the social network for traders also plans to launch a unique support system for NAGA Coin (NGC) based trading accounts, allowing NAGA Coin holders to use SwipeStox with exclusive benefits over traditional fiat accounts.

"After the release of NGC tokens by the Naga Development Association Ltd., it was a logical step for us to accept the NAGA Coin as unit of account within our financial ecosystem. Our new mission at SwipeStox and NAGA is not only to facilitate the trading of cryptocurrency with cryptocurrency, but to also establish the world's leading social trading app for crypto-investors.", adds Yasin Sebastian Qureshi, Founder & Executive Director ot The NAGA Group AG.

Funding with cryptocurrencies will be available on the SwipeStox iOS, Android and Web applications from 19 December 2017 [for users with an existing trading account at NAGA Markets Ltd]. The support of NGC as a unit of account and investment currency is planned for January 2018, which is 4 months earlier than originally planned.
