ASX ANNOUNCEMENT
4 March 2026
DIGITALX APPOINTS LEIGH TRAVERS AS EXECUTIVE CHAIR
DigitalX Limited ( ASX: DCC, OTCQB: DGGFX ) (“ DigitalX ” or the “ Company ”), announces that Non-Executive Chair Leigh Travers will transition to the role of Executive Chair, effective immediately. A summary of material terms of the Executive Chair role is included as Annexure 1.
The transition reflects the Board’s view that the Company has entered an execution phase following the launch of its strategic investment acquisition program to deploy up to A$30 million into select digital asset businesses and Fintech-aligned opportunities.
Mr Travers will take a more direct operational role in overseeing capital deployment, strategic partnerships, trading initiatives and the continued development of the Company’s operating businesses, including the Sell My Shares platform.
Strategic Context
DigitalX is progressing its refined capital allocation framework following recent volatility and valuation resets across digital asset markets. The Company maintains a strong balance sheet and remains focused on disciplined capital management, balance sheet optimisation and selective investment execution.
Management continues to work toward improving capital efficiency and progressing toward a cash flow neutral position over coming months, subject to market conditions.
The Board believes Mr Travers’ capital markets experience, investment relationships and digital asset sector expertise are well suited to leading this next phase of disciplined execution.
Leigh Travers’ Background
Mr Travers brings over a decade of senior leadership experience across digital assets, venture capital, and regulated financial services. He most recently served as Director of Capital Markets with Animoca Brands, one of the world's leading Web3 venture builders, with over 600 portfolio companies. Prior to that, Mr Travers held a senior role at Binance and importantly, was CEO of DigitalX from 2016 to 2021.
During his previous tenure as CEO, DigitalX grew the Bitcoin and asset base substantially and acquired the Sell My Shares online brokerage platform. Mr Travers has also held Board roles across the ASX, NASDAQ and CSE.
