December 13, 2018 BACK TO PRESS RELEASES

Hollywood, CA - December 11, 2018 - AltMarket, the peer-to-peer trading and fundraising platform with products and features for the entertainment industry - best known for its ODBCoin, an officially-licensed cryptocurrency from the Estate of Ol’ Dirty Bastard of Wu-Tang Clan - recently announced several additions to its board. The new members are music industry veterans who understand the exciting world of cryptocurrency and the opportunities it presents for performers and fans alike.

David Lotwin and Dick Wingate are new additions to AltMarket’s board. Peter Rafelson, one of AltMarket’s co-founders, is also joining. Their expertise adds to the already formidable team of co-founder and CEO, Bryce Weiner, and Hakim Draper, also a co-founder.

Lotwin is one of the founders of D&D Studios, a legendary Bronx recording studio that initially focused on freestyle and dance music. A veritable who’s who of hip-hop royalty passed through Lotwin’s studio, from KRS-One to Nas and Jay-Z.

Wingate boasts over 40 years of experience in the music and interactive industries and is the Principal of DEV Advisors, an entertainment consulting firm that provides expertise to service providers, app developers, content owners and investors. An early adopter of technology, Wingate has been at the intersection of music and technology from its beginnings.

Rafelson has written and produced songs for legends such as Madonna, Jackson Brown, Stevie Nicks, Elton John and Britney Spears. His work over the years helped sell over 300 million records worldwide. Rafelson also produces and consults for various technology and media entities with his company, Rafelson Media Company. He counts Microsoft, Apple, Toshiba and Compaq among his clients.

“We’re excited to partner with some of the most trusted names in the entertainment and technology fields to provide consumers a safe platform to connect with cryptocurrencies as well as their favorite artists,” said Bryce Weiner, CEO of AltMarket. “Our new board members bring a wealth of experience and insight. They will undoubtedly help us move forward as an organization that provides consumers a safe platform to connect with cryptocurrencies as well as their favorite artists.”

After a hugely successful pre-sale period, AltMarket’s ODBCoin officially went on sale on December 1, 2018.
