$APPB Applied Biosciences Withdraws Equity Offering after Passing of Farm Bill $HTIM

Posted by AGORACOM at 8:54 AM on Thursday, January 3rd, 2019
  • Will not sell any securities under the Common Stock Purchase Agreement related to the Registration Statement.
  • December 20, 2018, President Trump signed the US Farm Bill into law
  • The new law defines hemp as an agricultural product
  • Removes hemp from the federal list of controlled substances and removes any federal regulations preventing farmers from growing and selling hemp as an agricultural commodity.

LOS ANGELES, Jan. 03, 2019 — Applied BioSciences Corp. (OTCQB: APPB), a diversified cannabinoid therapeutics company focused on the medical, bioceutical and pet health industries, announced that it has withdrawn its Registration Statement filed on December 3, 2018 and will not sell any securities under the Common Stock Purchase Agreement related to the Registration Statement.

On December 20, 2018, President Trump signed the US Farm Bill into law. The new law defines hemp as an agricultural product for the first time in 50 years and allows American farmers to plant and harvest hemp. This will allow farmers and researchers of hemp to receive the same benefits as farmers and researchers of other crops, including the ability to apply for insurance and federal grants.

The Hemp Farming Act of 2018 inclusion in the final version of the Farm Bill is a major victory for hemp CBD companies like Applied BioSciences, as it adds provisions to remove hemp from the federal list of controlled substances and removes any federal regulations preventing farmers from growing and selling hemp as an agricultural commodity. The language provides the entire supply chain with certainty and enables businesses of all sizes and types to source hemp for food, building materials and textiles from U.S. crops.

According to the Hemp Business Journal, in 2017, U.S. hemp sales reached $820 million with hemp CBD and hemp food products making up $327 million of the total and projections see U.S. CBD sales reaching $2.1 billion by 2020, even before the passage of the 2018 Farm Bill.

“The Farming Act provides much needed certainty to the hemp community and businesses that will allow them to provide products that consumer need and want. At Applied BioSciences, we strive to be a socially responsible company and invest in industries that make a positive impact, such as the CBD industry. Applied BioSciences has achieved that by diversifying ourselves amongst different CBD and hemp products, ranging from creams and oils to capsules and vapes.” stated, JJ Southard, Treasurer.

“The regulatory backdrop has changed significantly since we started the company, almost three years ago. Applied BioSciences has strived to be a cutting-edge organization and our experience in the space is a competitive advantage. With our current portfolio of brands and investments we believe there are multiple financing and strategic alternatives to generate shareholder value which are in the best interest of the company and our investors.” stated Chris Bridges President.

Applied BioSciences products are USDA NOP certified organic, non-GMO, vegan, paleo, gluten-free, sugar-free and THC-free. The products are formulated with organic 99%+ pure cannabidiol along with our proprietary blend of certified organic botanicals, herbals and essential oils to further optimize bioavailability.

  • Announced today the addition of Mr. Sheldon Inwentash to the TODAQ Advisory Board.
  • “Sheldon is a great addition to our advisory team, his decades of experience at the intersection of innovation and pragmatic, commercial delivery is just what TODAQ can benefit from at this moment as we go to market…”

(“TODAQ”) are pleased to announce today the addition of Mr. Sheldon Inwentash to the TODAQ Advisory Board.

ThreeD Capital Inc. $IDK.ca Announces Commitment of USD$500,000 In TODAQ $HIVE.ca $BLOC.ca $CODE.ca

Posted by AGORACOM-JC at 8:12 AM on Thursday, January 3rd, 2019
  • Announced that it has committed USD$500,000 to acquire 248,201 Preferred Series A-1 Stock in TODAQ Holdings Inc.
  • TODAQ is a blockchain powered “bank of the future” that offers both a supply chain solutions platform and a consumer solutions platform to enterprises, banks, and smart cities for all their asset and money transactions.

TORONTO, Jan. 03, 2019 — ThreeD Capital Inc. (the “Company”) (CSE:IDK), a Canadian-based venture capital firm focused on investments in promising, early stage companies and ICOs with disruptive capabilities is pleased to announce that it has committed USD$500,000 to acquire 248,201 Preferred Series A-1 Stock (the “Subject Shares”) in TODAQ Holdings Inc. (“TODAQ”).  The Subject Shares represent approximately 1.3% of all issued and outstanding preferred and common shares of TODAQ as of January 3, 2019.  The Subject Shares will be acquired in a series of private placements and not through the facilities of any stock exchange.  The Company, through the preferred stock acquisition, will also receive Toda Notes (“TDN”) royalty rights to approximately 176 million TDN out of a total supply of 237 TDN, representing approximately 0.13% of the total TDN supply. 

TODAQ is a blockchain powered “bank of the future” that offers both a supply chain solutions platform and a consumer solutions platform to enterprises, banks, and smart cities for all their asset and money transactions.  It intends to also provide these clients access to value added finance and insurance services.  Its solutions are powered by the TODA Protocol, a soon to be open source fourth generation public and ledgerless blockchain that provides secure and efficient management for the ownership of any type of digital assets.  It is a decentralized technology that is efficient enough to be run on only low power mobile devices (without crypto mining),  and settle P2P one-way and two-way atomic swap transactions in half a minute, requiring close to zero electricity. 

The value proposition for TODAQ’s clients include: major cost reduction of transaction, reconciliation, escrow, trade finance, and insurance fees; improved data quality and auditability that can easily be integrated to ERP, AI, and other management systems; and frictionless interoperability with customers as well as supply chain and distribution partners.   TODAQ is currently commercializing and executing its first contracts including a sharing economy project in Korea covering tens of thousands of urban residents, an oil & gas supply chain project in Europe and the Middle East, followed by mining, manufacturing, pharmaceutical and education projects.  TODAQ’s solutions platforms are based on a software as a service recurring revenue model.

The Toda Note is a USD-backstopped digital note designed to accelerate commerce and industry as well as complement existing fiat currencies (which can also be put directly on the Toda blockchain).  Due to the TODA Protocol’s efficiency, TDN is not needed to settle or reach consensus on protocol-based transactions of other TODA based digital assets.  There will be a total of 237 TDN cryptographically generated, with a distribution period of about a decade to place the entire supply into the global market.  Any node or low power device taking part in distributed consensus or settlement work can also have a very small probability of generating a net new TDN so that there is a slow but capped inflation of the overall TDN supply over time. 

The target market for TDN is individuals, businesses and organizations (which pass OECD know-your-client standards) that are building solutions and conducting real economy transactions on the TODA protocol.  Approximately 75% of the TDN supply will be directed towards this target market, approximately 15% is set aside to build the underlying USD backstop through private placement investment and secondary market exchanges, and 10% of the TDN supply is set aside for founding shareholders.  In the early stages, TDN distribution will focus on populations especially in Asia, the Middle East, Africa and Latin America in order to access the largest markets that can benefit from TODA’s unfair trust and efficiency advantage.

TDN will be distributed through a mechanism similar to a universal loyalty program where every TODA based node (wallet) will receive a small TDN grant.  As each node does work to settle transactions, add additional nodes to the protocol ecosystem, or execute commercial transactions, it can earn more TDN. TDN wallets will also be available for download to mobile devices from app stores in Q2 2019, and on activation can also receive TDN direct distribution.

Esports Entertainment Group $GMBL – Ninja made almost $10 million in 2018 with #Fortnite #Esports $ATVI $TTWO $GAME $EPY.ca $TCEHF

Ninja made almost $10 million in 2018 with Fortnite

He also made more than $500,000 “on a good month” of 2018.

  • Ninja is used to working in quantities of 10 million at this point. He became the first Twitch streamer to reach that number of followers in the platform in early August 2018, and has since amassed 2.8 million more.
  • He also has 20 million YouTube subscribers and said he has 60,000 Twitch subscribers in a recent video for Wired.

Fortnite streamer and gaming star Tyler “Ninja” Blevins earned almost $10 million in 2018, he told CNN reporter Dave Briggs.

The streamer also said he loses “tens of thousands of dollars” when he’s not streaming, and that he earns “a lot more” than $500,000 “on a good month.” Ninja’s interview was published on Dec. 31, which makes these values the most accurate to assess the streamer’s financial success in 2018.

Ninja said most of the revenue he gets from streaming comes from ads, like the ones he rolls or the brands he shows on screen when he’s live playing the game. His monthly revenue also takes Twitch subscriptions into account, which vary between $4.99 to $24.99 per subscriber depending on how much each one chooses to pay every month.

Ninja is used to working in quantities of 10 million at this point. He became the first Twitch streamer to reach that number of followers in the platform in early August 2018, and has since amassed 2.8 million more. He also has 20 million YouTube subscribers and said he has 60,000 Twitch subscribers in a recent video for Wired.

Ninja’s earnings are a consequence of his ever-increasing popularity. He streamed Fortnite in Times Square for the ball drop on New Year’s eve, went to several TV shows in the second half of 2018, and shattered a Twitch concurrent viewers record on an individual channel when streaming with rapper Drake.

Ninja refrained from detailing how much he makes from every source of revenue he has today, but he said he has to be constantly streaming to avoid losing viewers, subscribers, and money as a consequence. 

He told CNN he streamed nearly 4,000 hours of Fortnite in 2018. 

Ninja’s earnings and popularity are still dependent on Fortnite’s popularity since it’s the only game he’s been streaming. Regardless of what the future holds for Ninja, he’s one of the most financially successful Twitch streamers of 2018.

  • Even as the hype surrounding blockchain reportedly subsides, it argues that their offerings of regulator-approved infrastructure for crypto are a major watershed in the sector becoming mainstream.
  • A further example, the Review continues, is the improvement in smart contract technology that will enable its use in multiple legal contexts — making the crypto adage “code is law” one step closer to becoming an accepted reality.

News

MIT Technology Review has published an article today, Jan. 2, arguing that 2019 is the year in which blockchain will become mundane. The Review is a magazine that is independent but wholly-owned by the United States Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT).

The article gives a laconic overview of its take on the recent history of blockchain, claiming that the technology was “a revolution that was supposed to disrupt the global financial system” in 2017, but that it was a disappointment in 2018 — in light of the significant decline in the valuations of virtually all blockchain-based crypto assets and currencies.

Nonetheless, the Review argues, on the cusp of the new year, many “innovative-sounding projects are still alive and even close to bearing fruit.” Together with several large corporations’ plans to launch major blockchain-based projects this year, 2019 is thus reportedly set to be “the year that blockchain technology finally becomes normal.”

As an example of the impending transformation of the sector, the Review cites the forthcoming entries of stalwart Wall Street players such as New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) owner Intercontinental Exchange (ICE) and investment giant Fidelity into the cryptocurrency business.

Even as the hype surrounding blockchain reportedly subsides, it argues that their offerings of regulator-approved infrastructure for crypto are a major watershed in the sector becoming mainstream.

A further example, the Review continues, is the improvement in smart contract technology that will enable its use in multiple legal contexts — making the crypto adage “code is law” one step closer to becoming an accepted reality.

The article’s final argument is that this normalization of the technology and the sector will entail a significant reshaping of the ideology that gave cryptocurrencies and blockchain their first impetus. Crypto’s roots as an anti-government movement is being upended, the article claims, by the advent of national cryptocurrencies — whether they be Venezuela’s already-launched controversial oil-backed cryptocurrency the Petro, or other states’ plans for their own state-backed coins.

A further example given is the endorsement of exploring the case for central bank-backed cryptocurrencies (CBDCs) by International Monetary Fund (IMF) head Christine Lagarde this fall.

Almost one year ago, in mid-January 2018, Cointelegraph published an analysis of the heat surrounding the blockchain revolution — encapsulated by the lucrative possibilities of businesses using the tech as a buzzword in their name to cash in on the over-hyped market.

CardioComm Solutions’ $EKG.ca HeartCheck CardiBeat FDA 510(k) Review Extended

Posted by AGORACOM-JC at 6:52 PM on Monday, December 31st, 2018
  • FDA Removes Additional Clinical Testing Requirements for the HeartCheck CardiBeat
  • Reduced the scope of their request for additional information for the Company’s premarket notification 510(k), Class II medical device clearance application for the HeartCheck™ CardiBeat and GEMS™ Mobile Application.

Toronto, Ontario–(December 31, 2018) - CardioComm Solutions, Inc. (TSXV: EKG) (“CardioComm” or the “Company“), a leading global provider of consumer heart monitoring and electrocardiogram (“ECG“) acquisition and management software solutions, confirms the USA Food and Drug Administration (“FDA“) has reduced the scope of their request for additional information for the Company’s premarket notification 510(k), Class II medical device clearance application for the HeartCheck™ CardiBeat and GEMS™ Mobile Application. 

CardioComm submitted its most recent 510(k) application to the FDA for Class II Medial device clearance on the HeartCheck™ CardiBeat as previously reported. The Company was then requested by the FDA to provide additional data that included clinical evaluations to confirm the device’s ability to record ECGs equivalent to those using conventional ECG electrode patches and ECG cables. 

Subsequent to receiving the Company’s reply with additional data, the FDA provided guidance on two primary items. These were:

  1. the Company no longer was required to support the request for extensive ECG electrode testing data; and,
  2. additional data was requested related to Bluetooth wireless coexistence testing.

In compliance to the FDA’s directive, the Company has submitted a letter of revocation of their supplementary information submission which was accepted by the FDA on December 26, 2018. The Company will provide the FDA a restatement of their response for additional information to the FDA by January 23, 2019 without clinical ECG testing data and with the requested wireless coexistence data. The FDA will have 31 days to complete the 510(k) review following receipt of CardioComm’s restated submission.

The Company will provide updates on this and future 510(k) applications. To learn more about CardioComm’s products and for further updates regarding HeartCheck™ ECG device integrations please visit the Company’s websites at www.cardiocommsolutions.comand www.theheartcheck.com
