GLOBAL BLOCKCHAIN MINING CORP. announced that it has entered into an exclusive letter of intent with Bravio Technologies Limited in which FORK aims to agree on terms with Bravio to develop a blockchain-disciplined cryptocurrency payment and asset administration platform. The Platform is intended to perform payment processing and administrative functions for Bravio's end-to-end foreign lotteries program, in which players from anywhere in the world can participate in lottery drawings that are deemed to be attractive based on jackpot size. Provisionally, the Platform will perform functions that include, but are not limited to sales, ticketing, deposits, payments, and rewards as part of Bravio's existing lottery programs. Once it is enhanced by the blockchain-based Platform to be developed by FORK, it is intended for Bravio's lottery ticketing program to offer a new breed of domestic and foreign lottery players the option to purchase original lottery tickets in the world's most well-known lotteries using cryptocurrencies for payment. Its practices will align directly with those of recognized cryptocurrency exchanges, once deployed. By incorporating the Platform into Bravio's lottery program offerings, the use case for these offerings will be broadened both by facilitating anonymous transactions, and by maintaining Bravio's strict "best business practice protocol", ultimately circumnavigating many of its competitors' key barriers to entry. Barriers include but are not limited to security, compliance, consumer acquisition, payment processing, dissemination of funds/winnings, and procedural costs to enter a foreign lottery. The integration of blockchain technology into Bravio's lottery platform instantly adds a supreme level of security and transparency. Also offering a decentralized cryptocurrency payment gateway, the Platform will bring out the full potential of Bravio's multi-tenanted lottery ticketing system, and offer a more practical entry point for new potential lottery players throughout the markets in which Bravio operates. Both parties believe that the use of the Platform stands to create significant value for FORK and Bravio shareholders alike. Presently, FORK anticipates it will retain around 40% of transaction fees collected by the proposed lottery ticketing Platform in connection with Bravio's lottery program offerings. Notably, the Platform will allow Bravio to accept payments made through Bitcoin's Lightning network, allowing micro-payments for fractional lottery interest purchases to be made with inexpensive transaction fees, and low processing times compared to traditional Bitcoin transactions. As of this writing, approximately 1,000 BTC are locked into the Lightning network. Based on an extrapolation of Bravio's transaction data, the Platform will be facilitating approximately twenty times this amount (i.e. 20,000 BTC) in annual transaction volume from Bravio's lottery ticketing sales.
