VANCOUVER, British Columbia, April 06, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- DMG Blockchain Solutions Inc. (TSX-V: DMGI) (OTCQB: DMGGF) (FRANKFURT: 6AX) ("DMG" or the "Company"), a vertically integrated blockchain and data center technology company, today announces the delivery of 2 megawatts (MW) of Sensitive Compartmented Information Facility $(SCIF)$-rated prefabricated data center units to the Company's Christina Lake, British Columbia facility.
This delivery onto Canadian soil represents another step towards DMG building sovereign, high-security compute capacity. The SCIF-rated units will ideally enable secure computing for Canada's defence as well as other branches of government along with enterprises requiring secure environments for advanced development and deployment.
"This initial delivery represents the start of a new chapter for DMG, establishing our first deployment of data center infrastructure in Canada," said Sheldon Bennett, DMG's CEO. "As we are ready to deploy SCIF-rated prefabricated data centers at Christina Lake, we plan to create net-new sovereign compute capacity -- infrastructure capable of supporting national security, advanced research and enterprise innovation within a protected Canadian environment."
DMG also plans to expand its secure data center infrastructure footprint through partnerships with Indigenous communities. The Company is working with the Malahat Nation in British Columbia to deploy compute capacity, advancing both economic development and sovereign digital infrastructure.
"Canada has an extraordinary ecosystem of IT talent and research," Mr. Bennett added. "What has been missing is secure, sovereign data center infrastructure capable of supporting the most sensitive and advanced compute workloads. DMG is helping to build that foundation."
Looking ahead, DMG is advancing its broader vision of developing 50+ MW of AI compute capacity at Christina Lake as well as additional data center capacity at sites across Canada, positioning the Company as a national platform for data center infrastructure.
DMG March 2026 Preliminary Operational Results
-- Bitcoin mined: 23 BTC (vs 23 BTC in February 2026) -- Hashrate: 1.63 EH/s (vs 1.78 EH/s in February 2026) -- Bitcoin balance: 398 BTC (vs 410 BTC in February 2026)
At the end of March, DMG held 398 bitcoin, as the Company liquidated bitcoin to fund operations and capital expenses.
Grant of Stock Options and RSUs
DMG announces the granting of stock options and RSUs to employees and directors of the Company. A total of 138,680 stock options ("Options") and 1,275,000 restricted stock units ("RSUs") have been granted. The Options are exercisable over five years at a price of $0.24 per share, with vesting in 25% increments on the six-, 12-, 18- and 24-month anniversaries of the grant date. The RSUs vest in one year; these grants are designed to create an incentive structure that aligns longer-term performance with the Company's growth.

Backgrounder: SCIF-Rated Data Center Infrastructure
What is a SCIF-Rated Facility?
A Sensitive Compartmented Information Facility (SCIF) is a highly secure environment designed to protect classified or highly sensitive information from unauthorized access.
SCIF-rated facilities incorporate multiple layers of security including:
-- Electromagnetic shielding to prevent electronic surveillance
-- Hardened structures and strict physical access controls
-- Acoustic protections preventing information leakage
-- Secure networking infrastructure designed for classified computing
workloads
-- Continuous monitoring and compliance with national security standards
Historically, SCIF environments have primarily existed within government or defense facilities.
DMG's deployment represents one of the first instances in Canada where SCIF-rated digital infrastructure is being deployed in a modular commercial environment capable of serving government, enterprise and academic users.
This approach creates new secure compute capacity for Canada, while also expanding options available to federal, provincial and municipal governments seeking sovereign digital infrastructure for computing workloads and secure data processing.
Enabling Secure Computing Innovation in Canada
By introducing SCIF-rated prefabricated data centers, DMG is enabling Canadian researchers, entrepreneurs and enterprises to develop dual-use technologies--innovations with both commercial and national security applications--within a protected Canadian environment.
This infrastructure supports:
-- Secure model development and training -- National security and defense research workloads -- Protected government data processing -- Trusted academic research environments -- Canadian enterprise development requiring secure compute
Prefabricated 1 MW Units Designed for Community Deployment
DMG's prefabricated SCIF-rated data centers are designed in 1 MW units, allowing them to be deployed flexibly across Canada.
Because of their prefabricated design, these units can be installed in communities of nearly any size, including rural and Indigenous communities, enabling localized access to compute infrastructure.
