Bayport International Holdings, Inc. Releases Shareholder Update On Cannabis Technology Platforms
Thu, 14 Dec 2017 13:00 GMT | GlobeNewswire | Symbol: BAYP
Dallas, TX, Dec. 14, 2017 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Bayport International Holdings, Inc. (OTC Pink: BAYP) is releasing a comprehensive update to its shareholders regarding its recent developments and progress being made on its cannabis technology platform. Currently, the Company has three major developments that it is working on:
Development of secondary cannabis technology platform to complement Weedwiser.com and expand its digital ecosystem
The Weedwiser e-commerce platform and online store that will have up to 15,000 products by end of Q1 2018
Looking into enabling cryptocurrency payments, as well as traditional merchant payment capabilities, for the Weedwiser e-commerce platform
Bayport has reached consensus regarding adding cryptocurrency to its platform because it believes that the Cannabis Industry is a perfect testing ground for cryptocurrency transactions. There are multiple coins and platforms that are targeting the industry, and blockchain is a natural technology to be deployed as the industry becomes more regulated. We have seen the funding and trading of coins like WEED and Paragon. “We don’t know who the winner will be but we intend to participate in the transition the industry will experience,” stated Clay Franks, Bayport CEO.
As previously announced, Bayport International Holdings, Inc. is actively looking to partner with vetted manufacturers, retailers, and distributors of cannabis apparel, clothing and accessories. After further consideration, management is also looking into adding high-quality Cannabidiol (CBD) products on the Weedwiser e-commerce platform. Unlike THC, CBDs do not get you “high” and are said to have several health benefits.
The CBD market is a multi-billion dollar market that is still in the early stages of growth. According to The Hemp Business Journal, the CBD market is forecast to be a $2.1 billion market by 2020. Greenwave Advisors’ Matt Karnes, forecasts the CBD market to reach $3 billion by 2021.
Through partnering with high-quality CBD extraction and distribution companies, management believes this will help deliver shareholder value and give its cannabis technology platforms an even greater ability to generate revenues.
