Blockchain technology is still an attractive proposition to investors. Earlier this week, the Wall Street Journal reported
that a software company, Block.one, raised USD 4 Billion for its EOS project from investors on the
promise that the blockchain platform could change the way the internet works. "EOS is a network that allows developers to build
and host applications. It is similar to Google's Android, but because it is based on the concepts behind blockchain, a software
protocol designed to run on a network of linked computers, there is no central authority," the report explained.
GreenBox Pos LLC (OTCQB: GRBX) announced yesterday that, "QuickCard, the company's latest Blockchain payment and
E-Wallet technology development has now passed all deployment criteria, including release criteria and compliance requirements.
This robust, world class technology, is now available for most platforms, and will gradually replace existing installations of
GreenBox payment technology and be the only available payment infrastructure for new clients moving forward. The company's
flagship product, taking full advantage of Blockchain benefits like security, privacy, reliability and extendibility, is also the
first system to offer instant settlement capabilities and an end-to-end, natively-integrated product suite. GreenBox existing and
new clients have lined up to be among the first to adopt the new technology, and full-scale installations are now ongoing. The
company already sees a dramatic improvement to earning quality and predictability and expects this trend to persist. GreenBox's
success in securing robust commitments pipeline to deploy the new technology created opportunities in several new business
verticals for the company. As a result, updated gross revenues projections reflecting that for the next 18 months have more than
doubled."
