As the cryptocurrency mining industry continues to heat up, leaders in the space are leveraging advanced blockchain technologies to differentiate themselves from the rest of the sector. The cryptocurrency mining landscape is currently experiencing significant growth, as a recent study performed by Coherent Market Insights projected the market will near $40 billion in revenue by 2025. In order to keep up with rising demand and combat against the volatility and security risks that are inherent in this industry, advanced blockchain technology is being developed. In addition to enhancing mining methods, blockchain technology is also serving to help provide greener methods. Active companies today include: Block One Capital Inc. (TSX-V: BLOK) (OTC: BKPPF), HIVE Blockchain Technologies Ltd. (OTC: HVBTF) (TSX-V: HIVE), Seven Stars Cloud Group Inc. (NASDAQ: SSC), Pareteum Corporation (NYSE: TEUM)Net Element, Inc. (NASDAQ: NETE).

Block One Capital Inc. (TSXV: BLOK.V) (OTCQB: BKPPF) an investment company focused on high growth opportunities in the blockchain and digital currency mining sector, is pleased to announce progress on its private token sale and pre-initial coin offering (ICO) investment strategy.

Over the past several months, Block One's investment team has travelled the globe to meet numerous blockchain companies across various industry sectors and to evaluate both the business strategy and token use case scenarios of these token issuers.

Utilizing the benefits of Block One's Investment Issuer and Institutional investor status, the company has identified a number of unique pre-ICO utility token allocation opportunities. As a result, Block One will be able to realize institutionally biased ticket size bonuses and gain access to private token sale offerings that typically will not come available for public sale to individuals. Often, access and exposure to quality, high impact token opportunities are too challenging and complex for individual investors to source and evaluate. Block One attempts to address this disadvantage that individual investors face, gaining premium quality exposure to the token issuance space.

"Upon reviewing numerous deals, I am excited about the pipeline of private token sale and pre-ICO investment opportunities we have identified. They are representative of what we feel are compelling opportunities led by proven entreprenuers," said Mr. Sothi Thillairajah, CEO. "I look forward to conveying the specific token allocations Block One will make in the coming weeks."
