EXHIBIT 99
BlackStar will Receive a Patent on its Revolutionary Digital Trading Platform: A Blockchain Encrypted Infrastructure Designed to Enable Digital Assets that are Securities to Trade on a Blockchain.
BOULDER, CO / October 24, 2023 / BlackStar Enterprise Group, Inc. (“BlackStar”) (OTC Pink: BEGI) BlackStar on 10/19/2023 received a ‘Notice of Allowance’ from the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO), for a patent application titled “System and Method for Matching Orders and Immutable Blockchain Ledger for all Customer Trading Activity with Settlement into the Broker Dealer Ecosystem.” The technology claimed in the patent application enables trading of common shares of a public company on a blockchain. This revolutionary software is called the BlackStar Digital Trading PlatformTM (“BDTP TM”), a trading platform for electronic fungible shares in book-entry, and compliant at any U.S. Brokerage Firm.
When asked for comment, BlackStar’s CEO, Joseph E Kurczodyna stated that “this may revolutionize blockchain trading of digital assets that are securities.” When this patent issues in due course at the USPTO, likely in November 2023, BlackStar will have a registered patent that will give BlackStar a 20- year monopoly on digital equity trading of securities on a blockchain.
