PLANET VENTURES INC. POSITIONS ITSELF TO BECOME A LEADER IN THE CRYPTO-CURRENCY/BLOCKCHAIN SPACE   
Vancouver, British Columbia - November 8, 2017 -- Planet Ventures Inc. (the "Company") (TSX.V: PXI) is pleased to anno
--->unce that it is focusing its attention towards investing in the rapidly growing crypto-currency/blockchain space. 

The Company's initiative is to empower entrepreneurs developing disruptive technologies in the blockchain space and pr
--->ovide them with the necessary capital and expertise to help them revolutionize the industry.

Management is working to position Planet as a leading investment issuer giving shareholders access to a wide range of 
--->investments in all sectors of the market with strong exposure to the crypto space. Planet will primarily, but is not l
--->imited to, investing in existing crypto currencies, initial coin offerings (ICO's) and public and private companies wo
--->rking to revolutionize and disrupt the entire blockchain industry. 
To date, the Company has made several strategic investments within the cryptocurrency and blockchain arena and plans t
--->o deploy additional capital in the sector. Planet's portfolio investments include:

HIVE Blockchain Technologies (TSXV:HIVE)

Hive is a growth-oriented, TSX-V-listed company building a bridge from the blockchain sector to traditional capital ma
--->rkets. Hive is strategically partnered with Genesis Mining to build the next generation of blockchain infrastructure. 
--->Hive owns state-of-the-art GPU-based cryptocurrency mining facilities in Iceland, which produce mined cryptocurrency l
--->ike Ethereum around the clock.

Aida Minerals Corporation (CSE:AMC)

Aida has signed a non-binding letter of intent to acquire 100 per cent of 10375977 Canada Inc., a blockchain technolog
--->y company doing business as Greenstream.

Global Blockchain Technologies Corporation (TSXV:BLOC)

Global Blockchain Technologies is an investment company providing investors access to a basket of holdings within the 
--->blockchain space, managed by a team of industry early adopters and pioneers who have had a significant impact on the r
--->ise of the blockchain. Global Blockchain is focused on streamlining the complicated process that interested investors 
--->currently must undergo in order to gain exposure to the cryptocurrency space. Global Blockchain aims to become the wor
--->ld's first publicly traded company that invests in vertically integrated originators and managers of top-tier blockcha
--->ins and digital currencies.

PXI has also directly acquired holdings in Bitcoin, Ether and Litecoin.

The Company believes that the blockchain/crypto-currency market is at its infancy and the intent is to invest the Comp
--->any's capital at the forefront of this revolution. Given the size of the Company's treasury, which sits at over $5,000
--->,000 (including marketable securities), Planet believes they can drastically increase shareholder value over the short
---> term. 

In addition, PXI is looking to potentially add management and advisory personnel who are industry experts and who can 
--->help expose the company to new opportunities globally.

The Company has set up a digital wallet and plans to invest in the growing ICO market in the near-future. Initial coin
---> offering (ICO) is an unregulated and controversial means of crowdfunding via use of cryptocurrency, which can be a so
--->urce of capital for start-up companies. In an ICO a percentage of the newly issued cryptocurrency is sold to investors
---> in exchange for legal tender or other cryptocurrencies such as Bitcoin. The term may be analogous with 'token sale' o
--->r crowd-sale, which refers to a method of selling participation in an economy, giving investors access to the features
---> of a particular project starting at a later date. ICOs may sell a right of ownership or royalties to a project. 

The Company will retain its investment portfolio and will continue to assess new opportunities for investment outside 
--->of the crypto-currency/blockchain space. Notwithstanding the focus on crypto currency, the Company may take advantage 
--->of investment opportunities as they arise.
