Toronto, Ontario--(Newsfile Corp. - May 30, 2019) - Gunpowder Capital Corp. (CSE: GPC) (CSE: GPC.PR.A) (OTCQB: GNPWF) (FSE: YS6N) ("Gunpowder" or the "Corporation") announced today that it has efficiently delivered against a strategy to raise operational funds for its cryptocurrency subsidiary MethodeVerte Inc., and has sold two of its real estate assets which were both located in Windsor, Ontario. Net proceeds from the sale of the two properties amounted to One Hundred and Fifty-Nine Thousand Dollars ("$159,000.00") CDN. All proceeds from the sale of the two properties will be properly put in place for MethodeVerte to expand its current mining presence. Gunpowder strongly believes that current positive movement and indicators in the Cryptocurrency market, along with identified significant growth opportunities in the space, warrant its continued investment in this subsidiary at this time. 

The Corporation has elected to use the net proceeds from the sale of the two properties to purchase more Cryptocurrency Mining Hardware with the primary purpose to expand the current Cryptocurrency Mining operations of MethodeVerte Inc., the Corporation's recently formed Cryptocurrency Mining subsidiary - please refer to the Corporations May 22nd and May 27th, 2019 press releases for further details on MethodeVerte Inc.

In the Corporation's May 22nd, 2019 press release the Corporation previously stated that Bitcoin was valued slightly under $8,000.00 USD per Bitcoin which represented a staggering 58% increase in value between the 30 day time period of April 22nd, 2019 and May 22nd, 2019. As of the date of this press release, Bitcoin's quoted value was approximately $8,700.00 USD per Bitcoin which represents an additional 9% increase in its quoted value in the past 7 days alone. Quoted market prices stated in this press release were provided by Google Finance.

Gunpowder, via its associations and discussions with Cryptocurrency Companies, learned that Bitcoin needs to be valued at approximately $5,500.00 USD to achieve a breakeven point for most Crypto Mining operations. With Bitcoin valued at $8,714.00 USD, there is currently a healthy profitability margin in place. It is anticipated that as new Cryptocurrency Mining Assets are scaled up and put in place, the Corporation will have the ability to mine significantly more Bitcoins or other cryptocurrency equivalents on a monthly basis.
