BTLTM SETS APRIL 23RD AS THE TEST LAUNCH DATE FOR
INTERBITTM, ITS CHAIN JOINING BLOCKCHAIN PLATFORM
For Immediate Release
Vancouver, Canada / London, UK March 27, 2018
BTL GROUP LTD. (TSX Venture: BTL) (“BTL” or the “Company”) is pleased to announce Interbit,
its proprietary next-generation blockchain platform, will be available on April 23, 2018 for testing
and feedback. Visitors will be able to access and download Interbit on https://interbit.io.
“Interbit is a token free blockchain platform and its release will further highlight the distinction
between blockchain technology and the cyptocurrency markets. Furthermore Interbit's unique
chain joining technology is designed to allow users to keep all metadata private in a design
framework that is familiar and easy to use, of which both are essential for businesses to truly
come to rely on blockchain technology over time,“ said Tom Thompson, CTO of BTL.
Interbit's unique “chain joining capability” has the capacity to inter-connect many thousands of
Interbit blockchains per solution, in a completely private, secure and horizontally scalable manner.
BTL developed and built Interbit after determining two years ago that second generation
blockchain technologies, such as Ethereum, would not meet the privacy nor the scalability
demands of users. Please refer to the Company’s October 17, 2017 press release, wherein the
Company announced its initial patent filings related to Interbit.
"This represents a key milestone in our BTL journey and we look forward to Interbit bringing
unrivalled technology to the market," said Dominic McCann, CEO of BTL. “Subject to completion
of security audit and performance testing following its release, Interbit will be available for
commercial deployment shortly thereafter.”
