BANQ® Announces Commencement of Horizon Globex $35 million VOX Security Token Offering (STO) Pursuant to Regulation D 506(c)

‍VOX brings widespread worldwide adoption of cryptocurrency as a means of payment

NEW YORK, NY, Sept.  06, 2018  BANQ®, a leading electronic broker-dealer and division of TriPoint Global Equities, LLC, announced today a $35,000,000 Regulation D, Rule 506(c) Security Token Offering (“STO”) for Horizon Globex GmbH of Switzerland ("Globex" or the “Company”). Globex is offering VOX tokens to power Talketh1, its global low-cost communications technology and blockchain enabled crypto-payments service.

Worldwide Crypto Payments: Talketh is a smartphone communications app with its own Ethereum cryptocurrency wallet and payment service. The World Bank estimates1 that 1.7 billion adults remain unbanked, yet two-thirds of them own a mobile phone. Talketh bridges this gap with its cryptocurrency scratch-card that Globex intends to distribute in emerging markets.  The scratch-cards are intended to be paid for in local fiat currency and then redeemed for Internet call-credit, without the need for a bank account. Low cost Internet calls used to be only for those with bank accounts, not anymore! This is the blockchain disrupting yet another industry.

Calls for All: The Talketh app is powered by Globex's patented ultra-low bandwidth voice software.  The GSMA estimates2 that there are 3.3 billion mobile Internet users with just 29% having access to high-speed broadband.  Globex's optimized app needs 9x less Internet speed than Skype3 and was designed to work for all mobile Internet users, especially for those 2.3 billion people connected to a slower 2G and 3G mobile Internet service typically found in emerging markets.

Leveraging Globex's 8+ years' experience delivering mobile communications and driven by its powerful management team, Globex is breaking-down technology barriers and delivering a blockchain-enabled communications service that can be used from New York to Nairobi. Talketh users can call each other for free or they can choose to seamlessly pay a small amount on the blockchain to digitally call a local landline, a cell phone or even call loved-ones overseas; at prices well below their local cellular operators.

TriPoint Global Equities, LLC, working with its online division BANQ® (www.banq.co), will act as the lead managing selling agent for US Investors in the offering.  

The Company seeks to raise up to $35 million to fuel Talketh expansion, marketing and operations by issuing the VOX Security Token Offering ("STO").  The VOX token is issued in accordance with the Ethereum ERC-20 standard and, in the United States, pursuant to the exemption from registration under the Securities Act provided by Regulation D, Rule 506(c).  The STO will be offered and sold to accredited investors only.  In addition, VOX is designated as a Utility token pursuant to the Swiss Financial Market Supervisory Authority token offering guidelines published on February 16th, 2018.

BANQ® made history in 2017 when it completed the first Reg A+ to list on a National Securities Exchange (which listed on the New York Stock Exchange).  The BANQ® team hopes to continue making history by combining its deep experience in the equity capital markets with its tech-focused platform to become the global leader in fully-compliant STOs.  Utilizing BANQ®s proprietary technology that converts USD$ to Ethereum, STO participants can purchase VOX tokens using US Dollar funds.

The summary may include “forward-looking statements” with the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Exchange Act of 1934 and are intended to be covered by the safe harbor provisions for forward looking statements.
