IRVINE, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Hop-on, Inc. (OTC:HPNN), a leading developer and marketer of wireless phones and accessories, and the foremost creator of mobile gambling technology is excited about yesterdays House Judiciary Committee’s hearing on the state of Internet gambling for not making a stronger decision. The hearing concluded that Internet gambling is a fascinating subject that should be studied and examined more closely by the legislative body, state Governors and state attorneys. This gives the Company an opportunity to get established in this market before the competition.
Professional poker player, Annie Duke, gave some of the strongest testimony, asking for government regulation to help protect online gamblers. She insisted that the personal freedoms and responsibility of American’s should not be undermined by the current laws forbidding online gambling.
Professor Joseph Weiler, an expert in international trade law, argued that the U.S. could not allow legal online gambling from American-run companies while simultaneously banning it from outside countries as that goes against the countries trade agreement with the WTO.
As the only American handset manufacturer currently developing software, licensing and regulations for online gambling via mobile phones, Hop-on, Inc. is filling a growing market demand. By accepting bets from both the U.S. and other WTO counties, Hop-on will keep millions of tax dollars flowing back to the American government while ensuring its customers can wager in the most secure, easy-to-operate environment. Hop-on ensures the safety, privacy and legality of its players, all of which are verifiable over 21, the legal gambling age in the U.S.
“I knew this current administration would not make a decision about Internet gambling,” says president of Hop-on, Inc., Peter Michaels. “This gives Hop-on software and hardware the opportunity to get licensed from legitimate governments to take wagers from US and other WTO countries without a bunch of competition entering our niche market that has huge potential of gaming on cell phones. This is just like our disposable cell phones; the prepaid cell phone market is a huge industry.”
