VANCOUVER, Feb. 25, 2019 /CNW/ – BLOCKStrain Technology Corp. (TSX:V: DNAX.V) (OTC: BKKSF) (“BLOCKStrain”), creator of the first Blockchain-secured, fully-integrated IP tracking platform for the cannabis industry, is pleased to announce that its shares have received Depository Trust Company (DTC) full-service eligibility in the United States. DTC eligibility is expected to simplify the process of trading and enhance liquidity of the Company’s common shares in the United States.
Securities that are eligible to be electronically cleared and settled through DTC are considered DTC eligible. DTC eligibility enables shares of BLOCKStrain to be distributed, settled and serviced through DTC’s automated processes, thereby taking advantage of the efficiencies created in the electronic method of clearing securities and the resulting cost benefits that DTC provides through accelerated settlement processes. Companies that are DTC eligible often experience higher trading volumes in their stock given the additional accessibility and availability of shares for trading.
“DTC eligibility is another milestone for BLOCKStrain,” said CEO, Robert Galarza. “With improved settlement for our shares, it opens up an opportunity for US investors to participate in the BLOCKStrain growth story and makes it much easier to buy our stock.”
About BLOCKStrain:
BLOCKStrain has developed the first integrated blockchain platform to register and track intellectual property in the cannabis industry. BLOCKStrain’s technology allows cannabis growers and breeders to identify and secure rights to their intellectual property. It also streamlines the administrative process and reduces the costs of genetic and mandatory quality-control testing for legal cannabis. BLOCKStrain’s technology is proprietary, immutable and cryptographically secure, thereby establishing a single-source, accurate, validated, and permanent account for cannabis strains from ownership to market.
