How does League’s Worlds viewership compare to the Super Bowl?

  • The amount of people that watch the big events in esports has a direct correlation to how many people care about any particular esports league.
  • The League of Legends World Championship, for instance, can rack up tens of millions of viewers for a single best-of-five series, depending on the location and teams involved.

One of the most important metrics to look at when evaluating the success of the esports industry at large is viewership statistics. Why? Well, it’s obvious. The amount of people that watch the big events in esports has a direct correlation to how many people care about any particular esports league. The League of Legends World Championship, for instance, can rack up tens of millions of viewers for a single best-of-five series, depending on the location and teams involved.

One of our favorite comparisons to make is weighing the viewers of League esports to viewers of the NFL’s Super Bowl. The NFL is one of the most popular traditional sports in North America, and with how often the “Are esports considered sports?” debate is thrown around, it’s interesting to see how the two compete side-by-side.

So let’s see the numbers. How close is the competitive League scene to catching the Super Bowl in terms of viewership? Well, the answer is a little shocking, because it’s a lot closer than you may have thought. The Super Bowl typically nets around 110 million unique viewers, according to stats site Sports Media Watch. At least, it has every year since 2011, with one exception in 2018 when it only reached 103 million. In 2011, it hit 106 million, but the total didn’t breach 100 million at all before that. Every year prior to 2011, the norm was around 90 million.

The League World Championship, or Worlds, clocked in at 99.6 million viewers in 2018 for the final series, according to stats provided directly by Riot Games, League’s developer. That means the difference between American football’s biggest event and League’s biggest event in 2018 was a mere 3.4 million people—103 million for the Super Bowl and 99.6 million for League’s Worlds.

Unfortunately, Riot doesn’t provide the same statistics every year and for every event, which makes comparing Worlds’ progression with the Super Bowl year by year more difficult.

League’s past couple of Worlds have had comparable numbers, though, with 2017’s hitting 80 million live viewers in the semifinals. Riot also shared viewing statistics from that year’s Mid-Season Invitational, but unfortunately it didn’t provide the amount of viewers for any one series of the tournament. For example, Riot shared the total number of viewers over the course of the entire MSI 2017 tournament, 364 million, but it didn’t share the total number of viewers for either the finals or semifinals series alone like it did for Worlds in 2017 and 2018 respectively. It’s currently unclear why Riot reveals stats in such a sporadic way.

Unfortunately, Sports Media Watch hasn’t released data on 2019’s Super Bowl, but when it does, we will update this story comparing 2018’s Worlds to 2019’s Super Bowl.

States Dipping Toes Into Crypto, Blockchain

  • One month into the new year, state legislatures are dipping their toes into crypto and blockchain.
  • Many of the bills introduced on the issues in 17 states so far call for legislative task forces and joint business-government study groups.

One month into the new year, state legislatures are dipping their toes into crypto and blockchain.

Many of the bills introduced on the issues in 17 states so far call for legislative task forces and joint business-government study groups.

Legislators appear to show they want their state governments to learn the ins and outs of fintech before they allow crypto and blockchain to live in the everyday regulatory climate as other ways of conducting business.

Chamber of Digital Commerce Chief Policy Officer Amy Davine Kim said she sees momentum.

“Legislators want to show they’re open for blockchain businesses to come in. They want to know what the industry wants. They want to be supportive,” said the digital commerce trade group executive.

She said efforts to advance blockchain and crypto in the State Houses have a non-partisan flavor.

“People on both sides of the aisle have an interest on this,” said Kim.

A toolkit devised for state legislators by the Digital Chamber boasts blockchain has the promise to create extraordinary economic growth and cost efficiencies.

Mary Pfaff, who keeps tabs on the legislative activity for the Conference of State Bank Supervisors, said she has seen a lot of bills to permit the payment of taxes with crypto and to broaden the use of digital currency.

Wyoming legislators have steered their state to the head of the pack.

“They are trying to make Wyoming the center for innovators in the blockchain and crypto space, said the CSBS’s Pfaff.

Last year, they changed the tax code and other Wyoming laws to encourage fintech companies to come in.

This year, there is legislation to place Wyoming as the first state after Arizona to have a light regulatory system in place for fintech startups.

One bill would establish a special bank where blockchain companies could do transactions with digital currency,

National Conference of State Legislatures analyst Heather Morton said there are more bills now than there were this time last year to allow campaign contributions with digital currencies.

She added legislation has also been introduced toauthorize blockchain for corporate records.

New Cannabis Products Which Could Disrupt the Industry in 2019

  • If there is one large-scale category of cannabis product which is likely to emerge in 2019, it is edibles.
  • When Canada moved to legalize recreational marijuana usage among adults, it did not include regulations for edibles and other products which might be confused for non-cannabis alternatives

By Nathan Reiff Updated Feb 2, 2019

The cannabis industry enjoyed tremendous investor enthusiasm in 2018, fueled in large part by major developments which seemed to open up the space for new opportunities. Canadian legalization of recreational marijuana use, the continued adoption of legal medical or recreational cannabis in more states across the U.S., and high-profile achievements from some of the industry’s emerging top contenders all fueled interest. In spite of the fact that cannabis stocks overall failed to perform up to expectations last year, 2019 has already revealed continued anticipation regarding this growing industry.

If cannabis stocks are to thrive going forward, it’s likely that many companies will have some growing up to do. Overextended balance sheets will need to be strengthened, highly speculative mergers and acquisitions must be kept in check, and quarterly figures will have to confirm that there is good reason for the hype surrounding these companies.

One way that up-and-coming marijuana businesses can bolster their fortunes in 2019 is through the release of new cannabis-based products. While it’s true that there has already been a flood of new marijuana products to the market, it’s likely that only a few will emerge as winners capable of driving sales and firming up particular companies’ dominant status in this fledgling market. Below, we’ll take a look at some new cannabis products which may be able to change the game in this way.

Edibles

If there is one large-scale category of cannabis product which is likely to emerge in 2019, it is edibles. When Canada moved to legalize recreational marijuana usage among adults, it did not include regulations for edibles and other products which might be confused for non-cannabis alternatives. The Canadian government allowed itself a one-year window from the initial legalization date of October 17, 2018 to sort out regulations for edibles products. In the meantime, Canadian marijuana companies have gotten a head start on developing new cannabis edibles for retail sale, even as retailers are giving away product that they are not yet allowed to sell. A recent survey indicated that about a quarter of Canadian cannabis customers had received a free edible in the last month.

When Canadian edibles become legal for retail sale on or before October 17, 2019, expect a rush to get these products into retail shops. Edibles alone could become a billion-dollar industry in the years to come.

Cannabis Beverages

One of the biggest cannabis headlines of 2018 reported on news that Constellation Brands (STZ), the beverage company behind Corona and Modelo brand beers, had partnered with Canopy Growth Corp. (CGC), the largest cannabis producer in Canada. The alignment of a major cannabis company with a top producer of alcoholic beverages has many analysts and investors speculating that there could be joint product launches in the near future. Indeed, other pairs of companies have also matched up in recent months as well: Molson Coors announced a partnership with Canadian producer HEXO also.

It’s unlikely that any existing products from companies like Constellation and Molson will change because of these partnerships. However, expect a THC-infused beverage market to crop up as a subcategory of the larger edibles space. These products could include THC- or cannabidiol (CBD)-infused juices, waters and seltzers or coffees. CBD products may be marketed as “health” drinks aimed at reducing anxiety and inflammation without generating a “high” feeling in the same way that THC does.

Cannabidiol Products

Before 2018 was finished, CBD had already begun to make its way into all manner of products for sale. Although cannabis includes dozens of chemical components, CBD has emerged early on as a popular one for extraction and subsequent inclusion in drinks, vaping products, bath bombs and more. CBD has been marketed as a product with wide-ranging health benefits which can help to cure everything from pain to insomnia. While it’s difficult to say exactly how accurate this claim is, it has nonetheless been sufficient to generate widespread interest in CBD, even among consumers not interested in the traditional “high” associated with cannabis. Expect a continued proliferation of CBD-based products in the months to come. Beauty and skin care products are among the most popular of these new offerings.

Cannabidiol has also made its way into drug treatments developed in the medical marijuana space. Indeed, the first FDA-approved cannabis-based drug makes use of a pharmaceutical CBD oil. Companies like GW Pharmaceuticals (GWPH) and Cara Therapeutics (CARA) are rushing to develop and test new CBD-based drug treatments. While this process takes a much longer time than the development of retail CBD-based products, it has the potential for tremendous industry-wide staying power, not to mention the benefit of providing more evidence of the efficacy of medical marijuana on a broader level.

Posted by AGORACOM-JC at 8:20 AM on Monday, February 4th, 2019


  • 2018 drilling program increases the size of the Croinor Gold deposit, which remains open in all direction
  • Highlights from the additional 6,645-metre diamond drill program:
    • Hole CR-18-685: 17.26 g/t Au over 1.95 metres, incl. 50.10 g/t Au over 0.60 metres
    • Hole CR-18-676: 10.33 g/t Au over 1.75 metres, incl. 25.40 g/t Au over 0.65 metres
    • Hole CR-18-678: 40.50 g/t Au over 1.00 metre
    • Hole CR-18-683: 23.61 g/t Au over 1.60 metres, incl. 43.70 g/t Au over 0.65 metres

MONTREAL, Feb. 4, 2019 – MONARCH GOLD CORPORATION (“Monarch” or the “Corporation”) (TSX: MQR) (OTCMKTS: MRQRF) (FRANKFURT: MR7) is pleased to report the last assay results from the 2018 diamond drill program at its wholly owned Croinor Gold project, 50 kilometres east of Val-d’Or, Québec.

“The 2018 diamond drilling program on the Croinor Gold property was a major success, as it enabled us to increase the size and gold content of the planned stopes, confirm and expand the two underground bulk sampling areas, extend the deposit to the east and west and at depth and establish that the deposit is still open in all directions,” said Jean-Marc Lacoste, President and Chief Executive Officer of Monarch. “The next phase will focus on upgrading the deposit through infill drilling and drilling pure exploration holes to test high-potential targets on our 151-km2 property.”  

The initial 20,000-metre program started in March 2018 and focused on expanding and upgrading the Croinor Gold deposit. The program was completed in early September, with a total of 19,935 metres of core drilled in 89 holes. Given the positive results from that drilling program, the Corporation decided to drill another 8,300 metres, and managed to complete 6,645 metres in 18 holes before the winter freeze (see longitudinal). All the assays for the original program and the additional 6,645 metres of drilling have been received (see table below and press releases dated July 10, 2018, September 5, 2018, October 4, 2018 and January 15, 2019, for a compilation of the 2018 drill results).

Hole CR-18-685 returned 17.26 g/t Au over 1.95 metres, including 50.10 g/t Au over 0.6 metre, 315 metres below surface. This hole was drilled 30 metres west of hole CR-18-676, and is 30 metres down dip from hole CR-11-407 and 45 metres up dip and to the east of hole CR-15-441. The two nearby historical holes combined with these two new holes will create a new stope in the western part of the deposit, extending the mineralization westward while keeping the deposit open to the west. The closest stope to these holes is 125 metres to the east.

Hole CR-18-676 returned 10.33 g/t Au over 1.75 metres, including 25.40 g/t Au over 0.65 metres. It was drilled to follow up on hole CR-18-583, drilled during the initial drilling program 20 metres west of hole CR-18-676 and 30 metres east of hole CR-18-685. CR-18-676 was drilled down dip, parallel to the host diorite, and intersected multiple mineralized zones within the diorite, as shown in the table below.

Hole CR-18-678 returned 40.50 g/t Au over 1.00 metre. It is located 20 metres west from a planned stope, 250 metres below surface and 25 metres west of hole CR-18-672, another hole added based on the positive results from the initial program.

Finally, hole CR-18-683 returned 23.61 g/t Au over 1.60 metres, including 43.70 g/t Au over 0.65 metres. It is located 8 metres west of a planned stope, thereby increasing the stope’s size and gold content.

*The width shown is the core length. True width is estimated to be 90-95% of the core length.
**Hole CR-18-676 was drilled down dip, parallel to the diorite, to test for the presence of multiple directions of quartz veining. The width shown is the core length. True width is estimated to be 30-35% of the core length.

The Croinor Gold deposit is hosted in a sheared diorite sill three kilometres long by 60-120 metres wide, striking 295 degrees north and dipping 50-65 degrees to the north. The mineralization is associated with pyrite found within and adjacent to quartz-tourmaline veins.

Sampling normally consists of sawing the core into equal halves along its main axis and shipping one of the halves to the ALS Minerals laboratory in Val-d’Or, Quebec for assaying. The samples are crushed, pulverized and assayed by fire assay, with atomic absorption finish. Results exceeding 3.0 g/t Au are re-assayed using the gravity method, and samples containing visible gold grains are assayed using the metallic sieve method. Monarch uses a comprehensive QA/QC protocol, including the insertion of standards, blanks and duplicates.

The technical and scientific content of this press release has been reviewed and approved by Ronald G. Leber, P.Geo., the Corporation’s qualified person under National Instrument 43-101.

  • Advises shareholders that it has received confirmation from the TSX Venture Exchange that effective at the opening on Monday, February 4, 2019,
  • the common shares of Beauce Gold Fields Inc. will commence trading on TSX Venture Exchange under the symbol BGF.

MONTREAL, Feb. 01, 2019 — HPQ Silicon Resources Inc. (HPQ) (TSX VENTURE:HPQ)(FRANKFURT:UGE)(OTC PINK:URAGF) is pleased to advise shareholders that it has received confirmation from the TSX Venture Exchange that effective at the opening on Monday, February 4, 2019, the common shares of Beauce Gold Fields Inc. (the “Company” or “BGF”) will commence trading on TSX Venture Exchange (the “Exchange”) under the symbol BGF.

BGF was incorporated under the Canada Business Corporation Act on August 1, 2016, primarily for the purpose of carrying out a spinout by way of a plan of arrangement (the “Arrangement”) with HPQ Silicon Resources Inc. (TSXV: HPQ) (“HPQ”), of which the certificate of arrangement was issued on November 23, 2018.

Pursuant to the Arrangement, HPQ completed the disposition of its gold assets (the “Transferred Assets”) to BGFI in consideration of the issuance of an aggregate of 13,350,000 BGFI common shares (the “BGFI Shares”), of which 10,680,000 BGFI Shares were distributed to the shareholders of HPQ.  HPQ distribution notice was accepted pursuant to the Exchange bulletin dated December 18, 2018.

On the day of listing, HPQ will own 2,870,133 shares of BGF, or 15.3% of the outstanding float of BGF.

Mr. Bernard Tourillon, President and CEO of HPQ Silicon Resources Inc stated, “The listing of Beauce Gold Fields on the TSX Venture Exchange is the final step in HPQ plan of arrangement spin out, and we are now happy to have completed this milestone that provided HPQ shareholders shares in BGF, a Company created to showcase the Beauce Gold project, a fantastic but overlooked historical placer gold district. The Beauce is Canada’s last underexplored historical placer mining camp. It’s similar to the White Gold projects in the Yukon or the Cariboo district in B.C., that were both placer gold mining camps as well, but recently had major gold discoveries as placer to hard rock exploration projects.”
