Global Investors Back Elixxir, a next-generation Blockchain Platform Focused on Mainstream Adoption

LAS VEGAS,Oct. 23,2018 --The Elixxir blockchain - launched during Consensus Singapore by legendary cryptographer David Chaum - has announced strategic investments from lead players in the blockchain industry.

Legendary cryptographer,David Chaum,has been working on the Elixxir platform in "stealth mode" since 2016.

David Chaum will be at Money 20/20 on Tuesday,October 23 from 9:00 am to 9:30 am PST where he will speak on the "Privacy in the Digital Age" Panel alongside Charlie Lee,Founder of Litecoin and David Bailey,Founder of BTC Media. Mr. Chaum will be able to discuss this announcement further,in person.

The investments come after years of platform architecture design in "stealth mode" dating back to 2015,with specific development on the Elixxir project beginning in early 2016. The funding comes from leaders both in Asia and the United States who share a common vision of a blockchain platform capable of supporting confidential and secure communication of sensitive financial information at the scale required for mainstream adoption.

H&D Company Pte Ltd,a Singapore-based entity and Chris Larsen,a leading privacy advocate and Ripple co-founder,have emerged as seed investors in project.

H&D Company Pte Ltd spoke enthusiastically about the investment,"H&D Company Pte Ltd and Elixxir are working together to give everyone the opportunity to build wealth by investing in products that are currently out of reach. We value David Chaum's experience and innovations in cryptography and shared vision to create a more vibrant and sustainable future."

Echoing a similar sentiment,Larsen said,"David Chaum has been a defender of privacy in the digital world for almost forty years. I am proud to be an early backer of Elixxir and look forward to seeing this consumer-facing blockchain open the door to secure use by millions of individuals in their daily lives."

Within just 10 days of Elixxir's launch,over 1,500 interested parties signed up to run Elixxir network nodes,while over 500 developers declared interest in developing decentralized applications on Elixxir*.

The Elixxir design is capable of processing hundreds of thousands of confidential,quantum-resistant transactions in a matter of seconds. No existing blockchain platform has been capable of achieving this scale to-date. The Elixxir blockchain can also operate at a fraction of the energy of the bitcoin,addressing concerns over the energy consumption of the bitcoin network.
