In cooperation with Central Grid, BNT today inked a deal to open its own grid, named Extropia Grid, with its first 16 sim server. Extropia will be connected to Central Grid, share common presence and asset servers, as well as a common money system, as we work together to build a true grid of grids, the Intergrid."This has been the goal of BNT since over a year ago. We knew this was the direction BNT needed to evolve in the new era of virtual reality hosting," said BNT CEO IntLibber Brautigan.
Also as early adopters and minor partners in this new grid, OMG! Inc. and Bull Run are moving their Central Grid sims to Extropia and will also have an additional sim each for their development projects. BNT is actively courting major SL content creators to join its grid as their first foray out of SL, from skin and clothing makers to vehicle dealers and RP military groups.
"BNT's well known estate management experience is of key value to hosting content businesses in Extropia," Brautigan explained, "We know how to take care of our residents, protect their property rights, and make them feel like they are in a community, not just a random patchwork."
This expansion comes at a time when BNT subsidiary, Ancapistan Capital Exchange is opening branch stock exchanges in other virtual worlds as well as in Extropia. "We expect to be the leader in virtual finance and business hosting into the future, and our expansion connected to Central Grid will leverage that," Brautigan continued, "additionally, this signals to the SL financial community, that BNT is back on the growth path." With the recent addition of two SL sims as escrow assets for SLIB to the BNT estates, Extropia increases the BNT sim count to 56.
