April 16, 2024 — In a landmark move following the successful listing of Destiny Tech100 (“DXYZ”) on the New York Stock Exchange, Destiny XYZ Inc. (“Destiny”) announced today that it has successfully sold 350,000 shares of DXYZ for a total of $9.43 million. The proceeds of these sales will be used to broaden its base of innovative product offerings and provide support for its rapidly growing investor base in the public market.
