GREENWOOD VILLAGE, Colo., Feb. 6, 2019 /PRNewswire/ — Helix TCS, Inc. (OTCQB: HLIX) has acquired Amercanex International Exchange, one of the first and most influential cannabis electronic trading platforms in the legal cannabis industry. The acquisition provides Helix with a sophisticated Electronic Communications Network (ECN) that can integrate blockchain technology to facilitate real-time transactions of wholesale cannabis product between licensed operators in regulated markets.
Building on its recent merger with BioTrackTHC in 2018 and Cannabase in 2016, the acquisition further expands Helix TCS’ Critical Infrastructure Services Platform. This platform enables new and already operating cannabis businesses, as well as ancillaries and governments, to manage mission critical infrastructure in their supply chain, inventory, and compliance functions.
Amercanex’s electronic marketplace enables compliant wholesale product transaction capabilities in over a dozen legal cannabis markets within the US and internationally, including the key markets of Canada, California, Washington, Colorado, Nevada, Oregon, New York, Illinois, and more.
“Helix TCS now possesses the unique technology suite needed to scale the industry’s first compliant wholesale cannabis exchange worldwide,” said Zachary L. Venegas, Executive Chairman and CEO of Helix TCS, Inc. “Clients of BioTrackTHC, Amercanex, and Cannabase, which is likely the largest network of licensed cannabis operators in the industry, will be the first to enjoy the competitive advantages and benefits of our industry-leading Critical Infrastructure Services Platform.”
“We are extremely excited to become a part of Helix TCS, which is known throughout the industry as a leading innovator in technology and security offerings,” says Steve Janjic, CEO of Amercanex. “This acquisition further strengthens Helix’s position at the forefront of the cannabis market.”
Amercanex’s blockchain-powered technology was built to be SEC/CFTC compliant and provides participants with real-time electronic transaction notifications and audit systems, QA lab results, and dispensary loyalty programs for repeat buyers. Amercanex is currently available in the following regulated cannabis markets: Canada, California, Washington, Oregon, Nevada, Montana, New Mexico, Arizona, Minnesota, Illinois, Michigan, Georgia, New York, Vermont, New Hampshire, Maine, Massachusetts and Maryland; with more coming in 2019.
The terms of the deal included equity remuneration at closing, with multiple performance-based milestones to be paid out in cash or equity over time.
