LOS ANGELES, CA, Dec. 27, 2017 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) --
World Poker Fund Holdings, Inc. (OTC PINK: WPFH), a leading developer and operator of online and event-based social gaming platforms and brands, announces today that it will be participating in an Initial Coin Offering (“ICO”) through its new digital currency subsidiary to raise funding for its projects. The cryptocurrency will be filed with the U.S Securities and Exchange Commission under Regulation D 506(c) and allow accredited investors to realize income from dividend payouts in the form of cryptocurrency.
Once launched, the digital currency will be traded through a SEC-regulated Alternative Trading System (“ATS”). An ATS, also known as a multilateral trading facility (“MTF”), comprises a non-exchange trading venue that finds counterparties for transactions by matching buyers and sellers.
“We are excited to be developing a coin catered to the gaming world. This ICO will not only integrate our digital currency into casino games and apps, it also allows WPFH a funding mechanism to develop and integrate blockchain mining technology into our projects,” says Travis Kasper, Chairman of WPFH.
The cryptocurrency is currently scheduled to be launched by or before the second quarter of 2018.
Last week, WPFH announced that it has launched a new division which will allow for the integration and use of digital currency with its existing and future technologies and applications. In addition to acquiring a digital currency wallet, WPFH is developing and exploring cryptocurrency mining opportunities specifically geared toward its social gaming projects and its users. WPFH is planning to integrate blockchain mining into its social games, casino games, and applications.
