Posted by AGORACOM at 9:32 AM on Tuesday, November 4th, 2014

AGORACOM Founder, George Tsiolis and Chief Market Commentator, Allan Barry Go Via Satellite to discuss the results of their recent stock picking contest for the period ended October 31, 2014 …. and debate their best picks this week. Companies Included on this week’s show are:

WHY IS JULY 11, 2013 SO IMPORTANT?

Allan and George have already put their viewers well ahead of the game by starting their weekly broadcasts on July 11, 2013 on the thesis that great small-cap companies were so oversold they could not be ignored. One look at the TSX Venture Index proves they hit the nail on the head … but that doesn’t come close to telling the whole story with most of their picks far outperforming an index bloated with zombie companies.

El Nino Receives DRC Supreme Court Approval for All Arbitration Awards To be Applied in the DRC Against GCP Group

Posted by AGORACOM at 1:13 PM on Monday, October 27th, 2014

VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA–(Marketwired – Oct. 27, 2014) – El Niño Ventures Inc. (“ELN”) (TSX VENTURE:ELN)(PINKSHEETS:ELNOF)(FRANKFURT:E7Q), is pleased to report that the Supreme Court in Lubumbashi, Democratic Republic of the Congo has approved the Company’s application (Exequatur) to have all of the awards and conditions received from the International Commercial Arbitration held in British Columbia applied in the Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC). Following the Company’s successful outcome in the International Arbitration held in Vancouver, British Columbia, El Nino pursued having the awards in Arbitration applied in the DRC. This process required a concerted and coordinated effort on the part of ELN’s management and its legal counsel in both Canada and the DRC to file the Exequatur application, along with a comprehensive list of supporting documents. These documents included the key components of the Arbitration rulings and the awards rendered in El Nino’s favour. The Company is now taking steps to implement and enforce the following awards against GCP Group;

  •  A declaration was made that Exploration permits No. 5214 (Kasala), 5215, 5216 and 5217 are the property of Infinity Resources Sprl, not GCP’s.
  • GCP must pay ELN damages in the amount of US$101,850.32, ELN may set off against the US$100,000 final installment owing under the Joint Venture Agreement and Option Agreement to complete the earn-in for El Nino’s 70% Interest in the Kasala Permits.
  • GCP must pay additional costs to El Nino Ventures in the amount of CDN$431,532. Post-award interest is payable on all costs awarded including the net amount of USD$1,850.32 for damages as well as CDN$431,532 for arbitration costs, at a rate of 5% per annum compounded annually from March 21, 2014 until paid.
  • GCP must transfer 20% of the infinity shares to Mr. Hassan Sabra. For the sake of clarity, GCP must transfer to Mr. Sabra two thirds of the 30% of the shares in Infinity that it has held for Mr. Sabra. (Infinity Resources Sprl – 70% ELN/20% H. Sabra/10% GCP)
  • A declaration was made that George Kavvadias and Global Consulting Group Ltd. (GCP) have no right to participate in the activities of Infinity Resources beyond the rights as a minority 10% shareholder.
  • Global Consulting Group Ltd. (GCP) must return all assets of Infinity Resources Sprl to the control of El Nino Ventures including but not limited to all mining permits and site, vehicles, equipment, drill core and data. GCP must act reasonably to ensure a smooth transition and transfer of the Infinity assets to ELN who is the major shareholder and operator of the joint venture company, Infinity Resources Sprl.

The Company will now begin the process of re-establishing control over its corporate affairs in the DRC. The Company is taking the necessary steps within its Joint Venture Company, Infinity Resources Sprl so that it can implement the changes needed to do so.

Harry Barr, CEO, stated, “It has been a long drawn out process, but we were not prepared to allow the assets of the Company be taken by fraudulent means and deprive our shareholders of the potential value that we believe the Kasala permits hold. The combination of winning the Arbitration in British Columbia and having the courts in the DRC approve ELN’s awards and having them applied in the DRC is a decisive victory against George Kavvadias and GCP Group in their efforts to have the Kasala permits fraudulently transferred into their company. For the first time since 2009 we are now in a position to begin demonstrating control over our Joint Venture interests and corporate affairs in the DRC. We look forward to advancing the Kasala project and bringing value to our shareholders.”

Further to the Company’s news release dated October 9, 2014, the Company has retained Paul Searle to provide investor relations services to the Company on a part time month to month basis for a fee of up to $4,000 per month.

The International Metals Group (including Next Gen Metals Inc., El Nino Ventures Inc., Pacific North West Capital Corp. and Southern Sun Minerals Inc.) (the “IMG Group”) has retained the services of Greenchair Solutions Ltd. (“Greenchair”) to provide digital social media services to the IMG Group.

In exchange for the services of Greenchair, during the first three months, El Nino has agreed to issue 214,285 shares of the Company at a deemed value of $0.07 subject to regulatory acceptance. All shares issued will be subject to a four month and a day holding period from the date of issuance.

On Behalf of the Board of Directors,

Harry Barr, Chairman & CEO

Newnote Financial Corp. Acquires Equity in Major Crypto-Currency Payment Processor Coinpayments Inc.

Posted by AGORACOM at 9:00 AM on Monday, October 27th, 2014

Newnote Financial Corp. Acquires Equity in Major Crypto-Currency Payment Processor Coinpayments Inc.

Vancouver, British Columbia (FSCwire) – Newnote Financial Corp. (the “Company”), (CSE: NEU; OTCQB: NWWTF; FSE: 1W4) is pleased to announce it has purchased an equity position in the crypto-currency payment processor Coinpayments Inc. (“Coinpayments”)

Coinpayments Inc. is a privately held payment processor operating the Coinpayments website, a service similar to Coinbase and Bitpay. Coinbase has raised $25 million in a Series B round led by Andreessen Horowitz in December 2013 while in May 2014 BitPay officially raised $30 million in Series A funding in the largest-ever financing round for a bitcoin company. The round was led by Index Ventures, and included Yahoo founder Jerry Yang’s AME Cloud Ventures, Felicis Ventures, PayPal founder Peter Thiel’s Founders Fund, Horizons Ventures, RRE Ventures, Virgin Galactic’s Sir Richard Branson and TTV Capital.

Coinpayments differs from its competitors in that it accepts over 50 different types of crypto-currency and has grown to become the third largest crypto-currency payment processor and the largest multi-currency payment processor, with over 7500 merchants in 120 different countries,  processing nearly $1,000,000 per month worth of Bitcoin, Litecoin, Dogecoin, Peercoin, Omnicoin, Darkcoin, Maxcoin and dozens of others. In addition to payment processing, the company offers its merchants a listing in the largest Crypto store directory on the web where visitors can purchase thousands of products and services using any supported crypto-currencies.

Coinpayments offers its merchants Point-of-Sale checkout in 24 languages with support for 21 shopping cart plugins enabling merchants to easily integrate crypto payments within minutes.  Popular supported shopping carts include OpenCart, osCommerce, Magneto, Zen Cart, WordPress and WooCommerce among others. Coinpayments generates revenue from transaction fees, advertising, and other merchant services. Additionally, Coinpayments provides an innovative currency launch platform that gives new currency developers support in the form of merchant acceptance, blockchain explorer, free coin faucets, and listing in its store directory.

A competitive advantage of Coinpayments is that it offers the largest multi-crypto-currency wallet on the web supporting over 50 different crypto-currencies at no additional cost. Web wallets are convenient and can be accessed from any mobile device or desktop computer. Balances can be applied directly during checkout with any of their merchants.

Revenue, transaction volume and number of registered clients are all expected to more than triple by June of 2015 at the current rate of growth.  Newnote Financial Corp. has paid to Coinpayments Inc., CAD $100,000.00 plus 1.5 million shares priced at $0.15 cents and 600,000 warrants priced up to $1.00. Newnote received 20% equity in Coinpayments.

Paul Dickson, Newnote President and CEO states: “This is a strategic investment for us for a multitude of reasons. Payment processing is clearly the most lucrative area of crypto-currencies and our primary focus.  Our proprietary crypto-currency exchange platform will enable merchants to liquidate crypto-currencies for cash and then transfer funds to their accounts through our previously announced partner Net-Cents.”

Coinpayments Inc. Chairman and CEO Alex Alexandrov says: “We are constantly looking for innovative ways to improve the services we offer our merchant customers. This deal with Newnote is in the best interests of our customers and the emerging peer-to-peer payment marketplace as a whole. Credit for this deal and our many advancements to date goes to a great Coinpayments team, which I am delighted to say, includes the original Coinpayments.net founders.”

Mr. Alexandrov will be joining Newnote as a technical advisor.
