Mr. David Flores Resigns from Board Paving the Way to add New Strategic Members
SAN DIEGO, Jan. 28, 2020 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Global Payout Inc. (OTCPink:GOHE) (“Global” or the “Company”) would like to announce to its valued shareholders that effective January 31, 2020, Mr. David A. Flores will be stepping down from his role as the Company’s Chief Operating Officer and interim Chief Financial Officer. This move comes as part of the Company’s ongoing reorganization with the intent to promote diversification and new venture opportunities for its long-term profitability objectives. Mr. Flores’s resignation from Global Payout also extends to his role as Executive Vice President of the Company’s wholly-owned subsidiary, MTrac Tech Corporation and his current seat as a GOHE Board Member.
Mr. Flores joined the Global Payout executive team in June 2018 following the Company’s reverse triangular merger with MoneyTrac Technology. Since then, he has been instrumental in guiding the Company through the successful completion of its two-year audit, in addition to playing a key leadership role alongside CEO, Vanessa Luna in the internal restructuring of the Company and effective launch of the MTrac brand.
“I am eternally appreciative of the hard work, determination and sacrifice Mr. Flores has demonstrated over the last year and a half with Global Payout,” said Global Payout CEO, Vanessa Luna. “His diligence and intellect were instrumental in working effectively with our accountants and auditors to successfully complete our two-year audit despite the significant challenges and frustrations that were encountered throughout its process. The positive impact on our company can be traced back to before he and I took control of Global Payout in June of 2018 and to the foundation he helped to develop for MoneyTrac Technology, which was the precursor to the success we have achieved with MTrac Tech. While his presence on our team will be missed, I am appreciative of the job he did to develop an incredibly stable foundational structure for the company and one that I am excited to continue building and expanding from.”
“I will be forever grateful of the incredible opportunity I have had to help reshape and restructure the core of this company,” said David Flores. “Opportunities such as the one I have had here with Global Payout are few and far between in one’s career. Much of my focus over the last year and a half has been directed towards the effective rehabilitation of the company’s internal structure with the intent to position it for long-term success and profitability. The two-year audit has unquestionably been one of the largest obstacles this company has had to clear in order to get itself on a path to profitability and with that obstacle finally in our rearview mirror, I am confident that this is the best moment for me to step aside and allow the vision of Ms. Luna to take lead. I do, however, intend to continue to lend my knowledge and expertise to Ms. Luna and the company from time-to-time and when it is called upon. Global Payout in my opinion, is ready to position itself for far greater business ventures, potential mergers and acquisitions, and prestigious new business partners. The newly available board seat will be offered to strategic partners that can help the Company move to the next level.”
In closing, David Flores stated, “I would like to personally thank all of the valued shareholders for your ongoing support and assure you I will be supporting alongside you as a shareholder and believer in the Global Payout team.”

Drofa Comms and CryptoUK Boosting Crypto Education in the UK with New Initiative
A groundbreaking initiative set to transform crypto education in the UK is to set off. Drofa Comms, a leading PR firm specialising in finance and fintech, in collaboration with CryptoUK, a self-regulatory trade association for the UK cryptoasset industry, is proud to launch an educational initiative, CryptoEdu, aimed at enhancing cryptocurrency awareness in the UK. This initiative represents a crucial step in addressing the need for accessible and comprehensive crypto knowledge for economic development.
The first phase of the project aims to inform the professional community about new trends, rules, regulations, and challenges of the crypto industry. Participants from Zumo, The Crypto Collective, Orbital, Cointelegraph, Coindesk, and Crystal Intelligence were invited to take part in these industry dialogues. These interviews reveal several key insights, such as the complexities of crypto concepts, an urgent need to shift the focus of crypto education from technical details to real-world benefits, and the importance of incorporating formal educational programs and hands-on learning.
Valentina Drofa, co-founder and CEO of Drofa Comms, emphasised the importance of this initiative, saying: “Even though the industry has already made progress in crypto education, it is clear that we now need to significantly boost these efforts. Without proper education of both key stakeholders and the population, the sector will not have a future. Someone has to take the lead in the systematic promotion of education at all levels. My expertise in PR and educational products led Drofa Comms to form CryptoEdu as a joint effort with CryptoUK. We now offer organisations perspectives for crypto education, contributing to both the industry’s maturing and crypto players’ development.”
And the launch of the magazine is just the beginning, the project is set to evolve. Webinars and workshops that will serve as platforms for companies to engage in discussions are soon to be introduced. Thought leaders, trade associations, and market players will be further brought to explore the current state of crypto education, address pain points, share personal experiences and advice, and develop improvement strategies.
Drofa Comms aims to provide the industry with a boost in innovation and knowledge, recognising that education should not be a marketing tool but contribute to the growth of the industry.
