💭 Executive Perspective: Benzinga taps WonderFi's early-backer Kevin O'Leary on WonderFi's intent to up-list onto Canada's TSX exchange.

The event, happening on June 22, 2022, marks the first time a Canada-regulated digital asset exchange will be listed on the traditional exchange.

This is what O'Leary had to say:

We’re honored that the TSX approached WonderFi to get listed on Canada’s oldest and largest exchange.

The "timing was perfect," he added.

“When the market turns ... WonderFi will be available on one of the world’s most prestigious exchanges.”
