DURHAM, N.C., March 1, 2017 /PRNewswire/ --MGT Capital Investments, Inc. (MGTI) today announced that its Bitcoin Mining Pool is scheduled to be fully available to the Bitcoin network early in the second quarter of 2017. Code development has been completed and security testing is underway. Upon launch, MGT plans to offer the world's most secure mining pool, branded MacPool, using the Company's proprietary cybersecurity utilities, and hosted exclusively on U.S. based servers.
Bitcoin mining pools are a mechanism for Bitcoin mining nodes to combine resources, share hashing power and split rewards on a pro-rata basis. With Bitcoin valued at all-time highs, and consumer adoption reaching an inflection point, transaction numbers are expected to grow significantly. The growth in daily commerce using Bitcoin will increase the importance of aggregated mining pools to verify and report transactions to the Blockchain.
John McAfee, Chief Executive Officer and Executive Chairman of MGT stated, "Our mining pool is a natural outgrowth of our investment in Blockchain technology as a foundation for future cybersecurity products. Large and respected Bitcoin mining operators will rapidly take over the enormous transaction processing requirements necessary for all companies to secure themselves in the near future. As a publicly-traded company, MGT leverages our unique opportunity to provide investors with a suitable proxy to participate in the profitable bitcoin mining space."
About MGT Capital Investments, Inc.MGT Capital Investments, Inc. (MGTI) is in the process of acquiring and developing a diverse portfolio of cybersecurity technologies. With industry pioneer John McAfee at its helm, MGT is positioned to address various cyber threats through advanced protection technologies for mobile and personal tech devices, as well as corporate networks.
Also as part of its corporate efforts in secure technologies, MGT is growing its capacity in mining Bitcoin. Currently at 5.0 PH/s, the Company's facility in Washington state produces about 100 Bitcoins per month, ranking it as one of the largest U.S.-based Bitcoin miners. Further, MGT is in active discussions with financial partners to grow Bitcoin output materially.
Lastly, MGT stockholders have voted to change the corporate name of MGT to "John McAfee Global Technologies, Inc." Following a dispute over ownership and permitted usage of the name McAfee, The Company and Intel have agreed to a mediation process to avoid unnecessary legal costs.
