(“Long Blockchain” or the “Company”) today announced that it has appointed Toby Carroll as the new Chief Executive Officer. Mr. Carroll will immediately replace Andy Shape who will step down to focus on his other business affairs.

Mr. Carroll is the current CEO and founder of Kinect Hub, a blockchain enabled token provider whose donations application and platform is focused on disrupting how charitable giving is originated and deployed amongst the Christian community. The platform proposes to eliminate infectious disease and revolutionize healthcare with a focus on wellbeing, education, engagement, sovereignty and the collective good.

KinectHub, a blockchain-enabled donations application and platform that is focused on disrupting how charitable giving is originated and deployed amongst the Christian community. The platform provides an incorruptible and fully auditable ledger that delivers full accountability for every dollar donated, significantly reducing the likelihood of fraud and disrupting a ~US$770bn/annum market in the process.

KinectHub bootstraps Bitcoin, the most secure global blockchain, to make entering new markets and implementing security, tracking and accountability features of our application far simpler.

By improving efficiency through currency and fee leakage and ensuring the honesty of multiple intermediaries, has the power to more than quadruple the power of every dollar donated versus the current industry model.

In relation to the appointment of Mr. Carroll and recent developments, the Company has given formal notice of its voluntary settlement to delist its common stock from OTC Capital Market and to deregister its common stock under Section 12(J) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”). The Company has made the decision to delist its common stock and suspend its reporting obligations under the Exchange Act. The savings derived from this change are expected to be financially meaningful.
