Calvin Ayre Reveals New Bitcoin SV Headquarters in Carribbean – newsBTC

Gambling business mogul and Bitcoin SV proponent Calvin Ayre has just opened a decadent new headquarters on the island of Antigua. Ayre describes the new building as being the home of Bitcoin SV in the Caribbean.

The Canadian entrepreneurs new global headquarters appears to have pleased Antigua and Barbudas government. Prime Minister Gaston Browne described it as the most impressive building on the island, hands down.

According to a report in the Antigua Observer, Calvin Ayre has just opened an extravagant new global headquarters. The five-storey building, called Canada Place, will be home for various pioneering technologies, the iGaming entrepreneur said at the buildings opening on Friday.

In a post to Twitter earlier today, Ayre stated that one of these pioneering technologies would be Bitcoin SV.

The new building is certainly impressive. It boasts a games room, employee lounges, a library, gym, and daycare centre. Calvin Ayre Group media relations representative Anika Potter claims the whole building can be run on solar energy alone. The employee car park roof houses a solar farm capable of transmitting 500 kilowatts.

This, and other environmentally-friendly touches throughout Canada Place, led Antigua and Barbudas Prime Minister to call it the the most impressive building on the island, hands down. At its opening on Friday, Gaston Browne also acknowledged Ayre as a true partner of Antigua.

Ayre described the building as a $40 million investment into the Antiguan economy. The Bitcoin SV proponent claims that the Calvin Ayre Group plans to employ greater numbers of locals throughout next year, with a hope to bring the total up to 600.

With regards the buildings purposely low environmental impact, he added:

[I] fully endorse the governments policy of seeking to transition from the use of fossil fuels to green energy. This magnificent complex is a symbol of this commitment to a pollution-free Antigua.

It comes as little surprise to see Ayre making the island of Antigua his business headquarters. After all, the nation has long offered very favourable legislation for online gambling companies and Ayre himself has had business interests there for many years. However, its less clear how Bitcoin SV fits into Canada Place.

Ayre himself describes it as the new home of Original #Bitcoin #BSV in that part of the world. However, its not immediately obvious why a supposedly decentralised asset would need a central hub of operations in any part of the world.
