March 16, 2018 11:55:01

EVIO, Inc. (OTCQB: EVIO), a life sciences and cannabis testing company, has set up in California to address the supply shortfall in cannabis testing services. An article discussing the company reads: “California, befitting its history as part of America’s westward expansion, has earned an appellation as the ‘Wild West’ of pot. Medical marijuana, legal in the state since 1996, has been largely bypassed by quality control and safety regulations. That is about to change. To coincide with the opening of the adult recreational market, a plethora of rules and rubrics has been issued. California MMJ businesses will have until July 2018 to ensure compliance. As a result, demand for cannabis testing services in California is set to increase rapidly, a development that means EVIO, Inc. (OTCQB: EVIO), which has acquired testing facilities in Berkeley, California, is in the right place at the right time.”

The need for financial privacy has been demonstrated time and time again, and many cryptocurrencies today make it their main focus. On the flip side, with total privacy, accountability becomes a seemingly impossible task. Giving people the privacy they need and still maintaining some form of accountability is a difficult trade-off. The blockchain project æternity (Crypto: AE) is leading the field with creative solutions to this challenge.

The primacy of privacy

Privacy is often misunderstood in our society. We tend to focus on the concept of hiding something, instead of the real purpose, which is to protect. In order to conduct business and interact with other people, we must give them information about us. How much information we reveal and to whom is the critical question. Anyone can be trusted to a small extent, but practically no one can be trusted completely. Privacy is simply the practice of managing…

First Cobalt Corp. (TSX.V: FCC) (OTCQB: FTSSF) Turns Canadian Property into Global Trendsetter in Smart, Ethical Mining

March 15, 2018 14:52:26

Company is largest landowner in renowned, historically productive Canadian Cobalt Camp
Cobalt price has risen four-fold during past two years amid worldwide demand for EVs
More than half of all auto sales expected to be EVs two decades from now

Global society’s growing dependence on smartphones and other new technology, as nearly essential elements of daily routine, has become the foil of comedy platforms and reformative movements that offer a getaway from modern connectivity, but there’s no denying the importance of Internet-enabled tech gadgets to consumers, as well as the industries that supply them. That’s especially visible in the international rush to secure supplies of cobalt, a rare mineral that helped revolutionize the way high-tech battery cathodes move electrons in a more efficient way to minimize overheating problems. Amid the trend, Canadian company First Cobalt Corp. (TSX.V: FCC) (OTCQB: FTSSF) is pursuing its goal of becoming the largest pure-play cobalt exploration and development company in the world.

The progression in cobalt interest has been evident as cobalt prices made a four-fold increase from their February 2016 level, rising from $21,750 per ton to a record $84,250 on March 8, when they plateaued for several days. A worldwide interest in increasing electric vehicle battery-power use as an alternative to fossil fuels has been the primary impetus behind the rising prices. At the same time, the metal has become harder to find, especially as some auto and electronics manufacturers have tried to secure…

Winding Tree ($LIF) to Level the Playing Field in the Travel Industry while Increasing Efficiency

March 14, 2018 15:42:48

Throughout history, society has swung a pendulum route between chaos and organization. Seeking that perfect balance between anarchy and tyranny has been the elusive goal of many social movements. When everyone is shouting, no one can be heard. It is this chaos that leads to the growth of a centralized authority. A central authority has the power to silence most voices so that a few can be heard. While this enables society to function, it greatly limits competition and efficiency. Producers and consumers coordinate through this central organization, and it has enables rules to be enforced.

Centralized Functions

When societies are small, one individual customer can easily select a business to serve their needs. When societies get large and varied, this process becomes much more difficult. More options appear and a society can get disorganized. All the options can be confusing and difficult for consumers and businesses to sort through and often a centralized…

NetworkNewsBreaks – First Cobalt Corp. (TSX.V: FCC) (OTCQB: FTSSF) Enters Definitive Agreement to Acquire US Cobalt Inc. (TSX-V: USCO) (OTCQB: USCFF)

March 14, 2018 09:08:31

Cobalt exploration and development company First Cobalt (TSX.V: FCC) (OTCQB: FTSSF) and US Cobalt (TSX-V: USCO) (OTCQB: USCFF) this morning announced that the two companies have entered into a definitive agreement for First Cobalt to acquire all of the issued and outstanding shares of US Cobalt. Per the terms of the agreement, all of the US Cobalt issued and outstanding common shares will be exchanged at a rate of 1.5 First Cobalt common shares for each US Cobalt common share. In addition, it is expected that all US Cobalt stock options outstanding will be replaced with First Cobalt stock options and be exercisable for First Cobalt shares based on the exchange ratio for the remainder of their original term, and all US Cobalt warrants outstanding will participate in the transaction on a comparable basis to holders of US Cobalt common shares based on the in-the-money portion of those securities. Assuming all US Cobalt options and warrants are exercised prior to completion of the transaction, First Cobalt and US Cobalt shareholders will own approximately 62.5% and 37.5% of the combined company respectively, on a fully-diluted in-the-money basis upon the successful completion of the transaction. The agreement further enhances First Cobalt’s position as a pure-play North American cobalt company. “We foresee a shortage of cobalt over the next five years yet there are few companies doing significant work to identify new sources of supply. This transaction creates a larger platform to discover and develop cobalt projects for the growing electric vehicle market by combining high quality North American assets in two of the best cobalt jurisdictions outside the DRC. US Cobalt’s Idaho project complements our Canadian Cobalt Camp properties, offering upside potential for shareholders of both companies,” First Cobalt president and CEO Trent Mell stated in the news release.

Enterprise Blockchain Solutions Emerging in Cross-Industry Sectors

March 14, 2018 08:00:21

NetworkNewsWire Editorial Coverage: It’s difficult to imagine childhood without a set of building blocks, be it Tinkertoys, Legos, or the tried-and-true backyard stick structures. Regardless of the construction method, the drive to solve problems and build something useful never really goes away, especially when it comes to business. In fact, it’s the anchoring thought behind the blockchain revolution made famous by bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies. Blockchain technology, described as a distributed database or ledger that maintains a continuous list of transactions or records, has the potential to disrupt any public or private sector. Companies actively pursuing and building on the opportunities provided by this technology include Global Payout, Inc. (GOHE) (GOHE Profile), International Business Machines Corporation (IBM), Microsoft Corporation (MSFT), Oracle Corporation (ORCL), and United Parcel Service Inc. (UPS).

Lego My Blockchain

It’s helpful to envision the concept of building a blockchain the same way you once (or still do) play with Legos, maintains one research analyst who works for Cisco (http://nnw.fm/2ZLrm). Each transaction is like a Lego block that is transmitted to every party in the network and verified so it can be added to a chain, which creates a structure – something like that giant Lego tower you once built. Unlike the real Lego blocks, which can be pulled apart, broken or reused, a block in a blockchain is…

CryptoBridge and BridgeCoin ($BCO): Uniting the Cryptocurrency Ecosystem

March 13, 2018 16:20:10

As any student of ecology quickly learns, a stable, healthy ecosystem consists of many different organisms. From plants and animals to fungi and bacteria, the plethora of life forms in a thriving environment is nearly bewildering. Each of these different actors has their own unique role to play in the whirling dance that we call the environment. What often gets overlooked however, are the roles that interactions between different species play in the overall health of the system. No one species can exist purely on their own. They need each other, but perhaps more specifically, they need to interact with each other. Destroy one species’ ability to interact with members of different species and the environment as a whole suffers.

The Cryptocurrency Ecosystem

The basic principles that make the natural world such a beautiful and vibrant place have influence on the world of cryptocurrencies as well. Even a brief investigation into some of the more popular currencies shows the fascinating diversity that has already taken hold on these practical applications of blockchain technology. There has also begun to arise a type of classification system and jargon for comparing these coins to each other. A primary classification has begun to emerge between currency coins, such as Bitcoin (Crypto: BTC), and operating system coins, such as Ethereum (Crypto: ETH). Within the currency coins, there are projects that focus on privacy, others that specialize in distributed governance and a few that strive for both in the same package. Among the operating system coins, the diversity…

IEG Holdings services vast underbanked market in U.S.
Company enjoys 80 percent repeat customer business
ACF Equity Research projects that company revenues will quadruple from 2017 estimates by 2020

In a January 2018 report, ACF Equity Research projected that IEG Holdings Corp. (OTCQB: IEGH) revenues will essentially quadruple over the next couple years and the company will maintain positive EBITDA (http://nnw.fm/i9LkJ). Serving the large underbanked population in the United States, IEG Holdings provides unsecured, five-year consumer loans of $5,000 and $10,000 under the brand name ‘Mr. Amazing Loans’ through its website (www.MrAmazingLoans.com).

Cannabis testing comprises about five percent of the multibillion-dollar cannabis industry
Company currently operates nine testing labs in five U.S. states
Plans in view to double number of operating labs by year-end 2018 and potentially expand into Canada

Leading cannabis testing services provider EVIO, Inc. (OTCQB: EVIO) is on a growth trajectory that is bounded only by the growth limits of the blossoming cannabis industry itself. In other words, things are looking good for EVIO.

NetworkNewsBreaks – Lexaria Bioscience Corp. (CSE: LXX) (OTCQX: LXRP) Reports Positive Results from Skin Absorption Study

March 13, 2018 10:10:51

Lexaria Bioscience (CSE: LXX) (OTCQB: LXRP) this morning said that it has completed the first study evaluating DehydraTECH™ used in a topical cream formulation for absorption of cannabidiol (“CBD”) through human skin. Compared to control formulations, significant increases in the speed and quantity of CBD absorption through skin were proven in the study. Several factors were measured during the study at multiple testing intervals over a 48-hour duration, including the time required to detect CBD skin penetration and quantity as well as the peak amounts of CBD absorbed. Lexaria’s DehydraTECH-enabled topical formulation without the addition of either of the commercial penetration enhancers, demonstrated the highest overall average quantity of CBD delivered through the skin. Based on the positive results of the study, Lexaria intends to begin discussing potential additional commercial applications for its DehydraTECH technology with interested third parties from the topical products sector. “This first round of testing was very encouraging and showed clear benefits with regards to speed of action and, particularly, delivery of CBD across the skin barrier for potential transdermal applications where delivery into the human circulatory system is required,” Lexaria Bioscience president John Docherty stated in the news release.

PreveCeutical Medical Inc. (CSE: PREV) (OTCQB: PRVCF) (FSE: 18H) Linker Tech Mimics Body’s Production of Pain Relieving Peptides

March 12, 2018 15:21:39

Developing pain relievers that mimic body’s natural pain relief peptides
Other programs include development of treatments for diabetes, synthetization of blue scorpion venom and study of a novel cannabinoid delivery platform
Revenues from international licensing strategy

The discovery of endomorphins in 1997 was a remarkable reminder of the human body’s wondrous nature. Endomorphins are naturally produced morphine-like substances with an affinity for the µ-opioid receptors in the brain, which fortunately happen to be the best places to alleviate pain. With a potency that far exceeds morphine, these endogenous substances are the body’s first line of defense against pain and stress. Since their discovery, efforts to replicate them in the lab have been underway, and a number of those initiatives are now bearing fruit in R&D establishments. A signal example is the biotechnology developed by Dr. Harry Parekh, which provides a drug development platform for PreveCeutical Medical Inc. (CSE: PREV) (OTCQB: PRVCF) (FSE: 18H). Using it, the health sciences company plans to develop endomorphin analogs which, unlike opioids, aren’t addictive and don’t trigger the respiratory depression that all too often causes fatal overdosing.

The development of this new class of pain relieving drugs could usher in an era of more temperate painkillers. Opioids are effective in reducing pain, but their use is blighted by possibilities of sinister side effects. Since they delay the functioning of the body’s respiratory apparatus, the peril of fatal overdose is ever-present. In addition, their efficacy diminishes over time as the body develops…

Capability to provide a wide range of financial product solutions

In the 16th century, the Belgian city of Antwerp, enthused by the entrepreneurial spirit of its burghers, became ‘the center of the entire international economy’.

Playing an integral role in the worldwide distribution of oil products, Petrogress, Inc. (OTC: PGAS), a diversified marine transport and offshore services company, is on a path of expansion at what appears to be an incredibly opportune time.

To meet expected growth in demand and offset the natural decline in developed fields, the global oil and gas industry needs to invest more than $20 trillion over the next 25 years, according to Saudi Aramco CEO Amin Nasser (http://nnw.fm/ta2KG).

Integration of ATIXF’s MarketWall with Intesa Sanpaolo will provide exposure to eight million stock trading clients in six countries

Artificial Intelligence (“AI”) has been a big talking point for a few years now, but this has not yet translated into any substantial investment in the technology.

Pressure BioSciences’ (PBIO) Patented Tech Enhances Nanoemulsion Bioavailability and Extends Product Shelf Life

March 12, 2018 10:56:29

Patented UST process produces highly stable, clean and cost-effective nanoemulsions
Technology can be applied across many industries, including pharmaceutical, food, nutraceutical, industrial lubricant, paint and cosmetic sectors
UST technology aligns with consumer demand for chemical- and preservative-free products

The demand for nanoemulsions is growing at a fast pace, with potential applications in many industry sectors, including food, pharmaceuticals, nutraceuticals, cosmetics and industrial lubricants. Up to now, one of the major problems with nanoemulsions has been their instability. This instability compromises the bioavailability and absorption of active ingredients for product preparation and the shelf life of the product. Life sciences company Pressure BioSciences Inc. (OTCQB: PBIO) is positioned to change this landscape via a patented novel technique called Ultra Shear Technology (“UST”). This technology uses intense shear forces generated by high-pressure valve discharge, which can help produce nanoemulsions that exhibit significantly improved absorption, greater stability and increased bioavailability compared to traditional micro and macro-emulsions.

Emulsions are mixtures of two liquids which are largely immiscible without the aid of emulsifying chemicals, such as surfactants. Surfactants assist in the dispersion of one liquid within the other, where it exists as tiny droplets. The smaller the droplet size for any given volume of dispersed liquid, the greater the absorption and bioavailability of…

Blending the Virtual with the Practical by Building Green Energy with Solar Bankers and SunCoin ($SUN)

March 9, 2018 17:14:58

There is no avoiding the fact that blockchain technology is a radically new idea. For many in this field, this is both a blessing and a curse. On the one hand, it makes it fresh and explosively creative. On the other hand, cryptocurrencies existing primarily in the virtual space can seem like something straight out of science fiction. This is particularly true when trying to explain it to the non-initiated. The question “but what can you do with it?” is as frustrating as it is common.

The Power of Vision

Many early adopters of Bitcoin (Crypto: BTC) and other crypto currencies saw a void in the world before they were exposed to blockchain technology. These early enthusiasts were already disgruntled by the very practical problems caused by things like hyper-inflation, fractional reserve banking and centralized control of business and industry. For these intensely forward-thinking individuals, cryptocurrencies could fill…

NetworkNewsBreaks – PreveCeutical Medical Inc.’s (CSE: PREV) (OTCQB: PRVCF) (FSE: 18H) Proprietary Sol-gel Formulations May Significantly Improve Bioavailability

March 9, 2018 15:26:51

Health sciences company PreveCeutical Medical (PRVCF) is engineering a unique Sol-gel CBD-based technology delivery platform to provide direct, controlled pharmacological drug release. This technology could provide a clinical benefit for patients seeking relief for multiple medical indications including pain, inflammation, seizures and neurological disorders. An article discussing the company’s proprietary technology reads: “PreveCeutical’s proprietary Sol-gel formulations begin as a liquid that is administrated into the nose, which then forms a gel as it is warmed in the nasal cavity where it can then be absorbed. This effectively bypasses the stomach and intestines – eliminating first pass metabolism – and may dramatically improve bioavailability, even compared to nasal sprays and newer delivery systems. This nose-to-brain delivery method offers numerous benefits, including fewer side effects and avoidance of unwanted rapid metabolism.”

NetworkNewsBreaks – First Cobalt Corp. (TSX.V: FCC) (OTCQB: FTSSF) Offers Ethical Alternatives to Conflict Minerals

March 9, 2018 14:34:06

Cobalt exploration and development company First Cobalt Corp. (TSX.V: FCC) (OTCQB: FTSSF) is the largest land owner in Ontario, Canada’s reborn Cobalt Camp mining district. The company’s exploration program is returning positive results, with the presence of high-grade cobalt and nickel already confirmed at the historic Bellellen mine, where drilling began in January 2018. An article discussing the company reads: “Cobalt has become a critical element in the operation of the lithium-ion batteries used in electric cars, which are becoming an in-demand alternative to the petroleum-based pollutants fueling the world’s automobile industries, as well as in other electronic devices like laptops, tablets and smartphones. Although the 7,300 metric tons of cobalt produced in Canada during 2016 pale in comparison to the 66,000 metric tons produced in the DRC that year, the potential for a revitalized cobalt production industry at North American sites including First Cobalt’s Ontario properties is generating excitement among a number of prospectors looking for ethical alternatives to African ‘conflict minerals’.”

Earth Science Tech, Inc. (ETST) Enlarges Its Footprint in Hemp-Based CBD Market

March 9, 2018 14:21:46

Agreement with Mr. Checkout will significantly strengthen the company’s product distribution network
Human trials launched evaluating CBD-based therapy for opioid addiction
Application made to uplist to OTCQB in early 2018, attracting more investment

The worldwide cannabidiol (CBD) oil market, which includes products derived from both marijuana and hemp, is projected to grow at a CAGR of more than 39 percent through 2021.

Blockchain Universe Meets National Politics with TheKey ($TKY)

March 8, 2018 17:23:46

A favorite theme of any good science fiction writer is the multiple universe concept. Bridging similar universes, either by a freak accident or a deliberate high-tech attempt, has led to many interesting stories. One of the common plot twists in these stories is how to get characters in one universe to play nice with their counterparts in the alternate reality. One of the typical challenges is where things seem the same at first, but later are seen to be very different. This situation is very similar to the one popping up now as the world of cryptocurrencies attempt to interact with national governments.

Although alternate physical realties are still quite theoretical, the similarities and differences between blockchain-based systems and modern political states are quite pronounced. Both systems have a way of determining identity of their citizens/users, organizing fees for use of their systems, and maintaining law and order. However, each system has…

NetworkNewsBreaks – Lexaria Bioscience Corp.’s (CSE: LXX) (OTCQX: LXRP) Innovative Technology is Well-suited in the Cannabis Industry

March 8, 2018 15:53:43

Lexaria Bioscience (CSE: LXX) (OTCQB: LXRP) has recently developed an oral digestion technology, DehydraTECH™, which is a complementary layer that works with other R&D efforts regarding cannaboids. An article discussing the company reads: “DehydraTECH allows for faster delivery time, lower dosages and shorter treatment regimens. Oral ingestion of the client drug eliminates unhealthy practices of inhalation dosing. It improves the absorption rate, by as much as five to 10 times, of non-steroid anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), vitamins, cannabinoids and even nicotine. Delivery time, the time it takes from ingestion to payload molecules reaching the bloodstream, is reduced from the 60-90 minutes of current methods to a mere 15-25 minutes. High concentrations of unhealthy sugars or sweeteners are no longer needed to mask the bitter taste, and side effects are reduced, improving the bioavailability of its client drug. This provides an opportunity for new and innovative methods of oral delivery.”
