Global Blockchain Technologies Corp. has finalized some important milestones of its projects Singularity Exchange, a decentralized crypto asset trading platform, and Laser, a second-layer interoperability network for blockchains. These projects have undergone some changes, as a result of both the shift in the crypto markets and developments related to the projects themselves. Despite the market shift, both projects are currently on track to perform as anticipated, due to the impact that they will have on the blockchain ecosystem, as well as the broader financial markets. The company has developed a crowdsale platform to be part of the Singularity Exchange, which will be for the sale of utility tokens, which includes asset types such as network access tokens and corporate loyalty tokens. The first crowdsale that will be held on Singularity is for the AMR token, the underlying crypto asset of Ammbr, a blockchain-based decentralized wireless mesh network project that BLOC's sister company Global Blockchain Mining Corp. ('FORK') recently announced its involvement with. This crowdsale will begin on January 8, 2019, which will also be the official launch date of the Singularity Exchange. Moreover, BLOC is tailoring Singularity's approach to the needs of crypto asset traders by making it a 'meta exchange' for other DEX (decentralized exchange) platforms, in addition to providing custodianship, making Singularity a unified trading solution. At its launch date, Singularity will support Stellar's decentralized exchange, with support for Ethereum's 0x DEX network to be integrated by the end of First Quarter 2019, and several more to be added by the end of 2019. With respect to custodianship, Singularity's custodianship platform will be a decentralized network by itself, using BLOC's Laser protocol. For simplicity, custodianship on Singularity will be centralized at the outset, though it will become decentralized in steps. Originally, Laser was built to be a second-layer protocol for underlying blockchain networks to interoperate with one another, having its own native token as a way of adding more value to the network. In the interest of focusing on projects which will generate immediate revenue, such as the Singularity Exchange and the Dubai-based trade finance project (announced August 16, 2018), BLOC has elected to not proceed with creating a native token for the Laser protocol. Nevertheless, Laser will be able to function exactly as originally planned, operating as a second-layer network that enables interoperability between the blockchain networks of Bitcoin, Ethereum, Steem, EOS, Bitshares, and Stellar, further providing the option of near-instant and anonymous transaction abilities. Laser will also have initial support for Nuvocash, a blockchain network for decentralized social communities that FORK has recently been commissioned to improve on for a UK-based social network operator. It is still intended for the Cayman-based entity Laser Technologies Corp. to act as a governing body for service node operators on Laser's network.
