  • Announced that fintech innovator, XTM Inc. (CSE:PAID) (“XTM”) has joined its Verifiable Identity Healthcare Credential consortium to support the issuance, management and verification of COVID-19 digital diagnostic testing and vaccination verification for the hospitality, personal care and other business sectors that it services.
  • XTM joins consortium partners, Trust over IP Foundation, Lumedic, Loop Insights (TSXV:MTRX), The Campus Agency and TripXpertz.

TORONTO, ON / December 15, 2020 / KABN Systems NA Holdings Corp. (CSE:KABN) (the “Company” or “KABN North America”), a Canadian fintech company that specializes in continuous online identity verification, management and monetization in Canada and the US, through its biometrically and identity verified Self Sovereign Identity platform, Liquid Avatar (www.liquidavatar.com), today announces that fintech innovator, XTM Inc. (CSE:PAID) (“XTM”) has joined its Verifiable Identity Healthcare Credential consortium to support the issuance, management and verification of COVID-19 digital diagnostic testing and vaccination verification for the hospitality, personal care and other business sectors that it services. XTM joins consortium partners, Trust over IP Foundation, Lumedic, Loop Insights (TSXV:MTRX), The Campus Agency and TripXpertz.

XTM enables North American industry leaders in the hospitality, personal care and sports and entertainment sectors to power cashless payments to employees, including 7 of the 10 largest restaurant chains; 5 of the largest pizza delivery chains including Dominos and Boston Pizza; the largest personal care salon chain; and the largest Canadian sports and entertainment group.

“We’re excited to join KABN, Liquid Avatar and the other consortium partners to bring our expertise in reaching and supporting large organizations and their employees in the hospitality, personal care, food services and entertainment sector that have been adversely affected by the pandemic,” said Marilyn Schaffer, CEO of XTM. “Our goal is to help our industry partners, in any way possible, to support their current, limited activities, and to help create and support innovative solutions, like the Verifiable Identity Healthcare Credential initiative, so that restaurants, delivery services, salons and other personal care facilities and venues can safely and effectively expand operations to the public.”

The consortium has developed an integrated solution ecosystem that enables healthcare issuers, individuals and verifiers to have a digital COVID-19 verifiable identity healthcare credential that is secure, user managed and controlled to ensure privacy, transportability and ease of use. This solution supports the foundation for the acceptance of digital Healthcare Passports and allow qualified Health Professionals with the ability to issue a Verifiable Credential that enables venues and other facilities to verify both the issued credential and the known user in real-time to grant access and / or services.

The ecosystem is built on a Trust over IP (TOIP) open standards framework, and the World Wide Web Consortium’s (W3C) specifications for decentralized identifiers for credential management with the ability to issue, manage and verify interoperable COVID-19 vaccination and other verifiable credentials across a host of user managed and controlled digital wallets and applications.

Verifiable identity and access credentials can be used for multiple use cases such as Education, Workplaces, Tradeshows, Healthcare, Sporting Events, Concerts, Entertainment, Travel, Places of Worship, Senior Living, and other facilities, venues and locations and opens the door to further opportunities for commercial and consumer opportunities.

Powering and supporting the entire user experience, Liquid Avatar’s Self Sovereign Identity (SSI) platform, which includes user biometric validation and a bank-grade verified identity credential, is available to consumers at no cost. Liquid Avatar enables users to verify and manage their identity and access credentials in a cloud-based, biometrically secure application. Users have complete control over their digital assets (like wallets, passwords and more), identity, and data through easy-to-use avatars that can be shared, on a permission-basis with others.

The COVID-19 Verifiable Healthcare Credential combines healthcare data with the user’s biometrically verified identity credential. When a request is made by a Verifier, the User has a choice of which attributes are shared, creating a private verification transaction between themselves and a verifier. While much of the technology and services are already in place, the launch of the healthcare credential pilot is expected to take place in the first quarter of 2021 to coincide with the expected release of the COVID-19 widespread vaccination program. This solution will not only be able to verify identity credentials for the Covid-19 vaccines, diagnostic and antibody testing, but will also be able to support a wide range of immunizations and healthcare records.

“Liquid Avatar and the consortium partners are working together to create open-source solutions that can help empower users to return to public life and the things they once did freely, pre-COVID-19, with ease and continued safety,” said David Lucatch, CEO of KABN. “Together with this amazing group and a growing list of partners we will enable, through this and future verifiable identity and access credentials, people to interact with businesses, schools, entertainment venues, retailers, airlines, resorts, and others and do the things and go to the places that they did before the pandemic changed our lives.”

Healthcare issuers and individuals will be granted access to the system at no cost. Verifiers wishing to access the system will be charged a nominal subscription and micro-payment per verification, making it very cost efficient and effective to use the system for small and medium sized enterprises all the way up to major airlines, venues and facilities. The partners are committed to making the services affordable to all parties, so that everyone can get back to their everyday lives.

The KABN Network is working with leading industry partners to provide a safe and effective ecosystem that supports the issuance, ownership and verification of these verified identity and access credentials and is proud to be working with the following partners at the outset of this announcement covering a wide range of technologies, issuer, consumer, and verification engagement, with additional partners to be named as the program grows.

$ZEU.ca Technologies Mula Evolution Creates Generational Shift in #Blockchain Use for Communications

Posted by AGORACOM-JC at 3:31 PM on Monday, December 14th, 2020
  • The Mula Platform, engineered around the core MulaMail application, has been completely redesigned over the last five months.
  • Certain obligations, like the “Legal Intercept” were impossible to meet due to a bulletproof security design.
  • These obligations challenged some basic concepts at the core of the technology and forced the designers and engineering team to propose fundamental changes.
  • Management is pleased to report that these challenges have been met. The resulting solutions represent a generational shift in the way people should use blockchain as the basis for communications.

Montréal – December 14, 2020 – ZeU Technologies Inc. (CSE:ZEU) (OTC:ZEUCF) is pleased to provide an update on the advancements of the Mula Platform and suite of products, as well as an update on the previously announced Prego acquisition and integration and other initiatives.

Mula Platform & Eco-System

Fundamental Changes

The Mula Platform, engineered around the core MulaMail application, has been completely redesigned over the last five months. Certain obligations, like the “Legal Intercept” were impossible to meet due to a bulletproof security design.  These obligations challenged some basic concepts at the core of the technology and forced the designers and engineering team to propose fundamental changes.  Management is pleased to report that these challenges have been met. The resulting solutions represent a generational shift in the way people should use blockchain as the basis for communications. Furthermore, the efforts have resulted in a significant sum of intellectual property of which many parts are important enough to require the filing of new patents.  The Company expects to provide further disclosure on that topic as soon as the provisional patents have been filed.

The New Mula Project

The redesigned and redefined Mula Project covers more domain than the previous iteration. It has also been further opened to third-party applications, community, and open-source efforts.

End-to-End Encryption

The core of the platform and the engine of its ecosystem remains the MulaMail module.  Built as a digital wallet, MulaMail content is encrypted end-to-end.  It does not allow the Company or Regulatory and Governmental parties to access any type of “back-door” or “master key”. The Company currently plans to use commonly compatible high encryption in its first commercial iteration. Some customized versions of the application will be able to deploy ZeU’s quantum-proof encryption at a later stage. The design team is studying the possibility to allow the users to choose their own encryption in some cases. Open-source contribution would help maintain and improve the application over time and can be done in parallel to the Company’s own improvement efforts.  The content of MulaMail messages does not sit on a public blockchain but semi-centralized databases (70/30) being local hosts or permission-based “private” blockchain protocols. Without disclosing what will be the content of one or a few provisional applications, the Company’s management believes that the solutions developed sufficiently maintain a level of decentralization and distribution to adhere to its core principle while meeting the “Five-Eyes” countries “Legal Intercept” obligations.

Overview of the Platform

The Company believes that this version of the Mula Platform will be a powerful communication and DeFi tool.  Its marketplace should grow and evolve in an organic and potentially viral manner.

To achieve this kind of growth, the platform’s new design now includes multiple APIs that will enable third-party development and connectivity.  Owners of other e-services or applications, as well as community developers and influencers, will be able to leverage Mula to grow their own DeFi offerings.  Mula will also provide more development freedom by allowing developers and power users to replace some components with their own, including Open Sources initiatives. The end-users will be able to swap these components to modify their experience.  For example, the new design now integrates an open- source initiative backed by Google that will allow ZeU to reduce the development time required to code an Ethereum or ETH gateway within its “Builder” module.  The builder module will contain the simplified programming language of the platform.  It will allow third parties, from high-level engineers to simple users, to build their own smart contracts and small to sizeable DeFi applications within the Mula Platform. It will use MulaPay as the core utility stable token for all transactions with swap access to a large number of mainstream digital assets.  There will be the possibility to connect to legacy financial services via the connectivity to ZeUPay, the suite of financial, payment, and custodial services allowed with the integration of Prego.

The Mula Platform should allow users to leverage their social, real-life, and business networks to improve and augment their offerings and revenues.  For example, someone with a “network sales” home business selling cosmetics will be able to integrate their personal business page with Mula quickly, build a discount and/or a loyalty program with its own child-token derived from MulaPay, and develop all the smart-contracts required to automatically run the operation by using the Mula Smart-Contract Builder module’s wizard.  That person will be able to add to their offerings by connecting other business offers existing in the Mula ecosystem and automatically generate additional revenue.

Below is the overview of the platform.  Its current design includes the MulaMail application that gives access to all the other modules. MulaMail is the blockchain email application that is end-to-end encrypted, but that now allows employers to deploy their own set of accounts to have authenticated access.  Enterprises will be able to deploy their own ZeU blockchain protocol nodes and leverage resources from outside of their private network.  Offline usage of the email application has also been addressed and is now possible without compromising its security.

Connectivity and Compatibility

An important aspect of the new MulaMail design is its inability to be run as an add-on or a plugin within another vendor’s platform.  Recipients of MulaMail via third-party email software will still be able to access the contents of the message.  However, they will receive a hyperlink to a temporary web interface allowing them to read the contents of the message.  This approach could potentially limit the adoption of the application, but it will not compromise its security.

Mula Modules

Many of the planned Mula modules have survived the redesign and will continue to be developed as planned:

Basic modules:

  • – MulaMail is a private, spam-free, and encrypted end-to-end email system. – MulaMessage is a private, spam-free, and encrypted end-to-end messaging system. – MulaBrowser is focused on privacy, security, and data ownership while browsing the internet.

Business modules:

  • – MulaMeet is a quick and easy way to plan meetings with colleagues and friends. – MulaTask is a simple way to compile a see your daily tasks. – MulaMeeting is secure video conferencing.

Marketing modules:

  • – MulaMarketplace is a behaviour-based ethical marketplace where users redeem tokens. – MulaGraph is a psychometric profile based on the Mula digital wallet that understands consumers’ tastes and habits.

Other modules have been added, incorporated, or redesigned for flexibility and usability.

MulaPay

  • – MulaMicrofinance has been incorporated into MulaPay. – MulaNote has been incorporated into MulaPay.

MulaPay allows users to access a variety of financial services within the Mula Platform. Users have the possibility to run micro-businesses within their Mula account by billing and paying for services, augmenting their services or retail lines, or connect to legacy financial services through ZeUPay.

The DEX & DeFi options

MulaPay and ZeUPay will support third-party DeFi applications connectivity, which means that developers outside the ZeU ecosystem will be able to use Mula digital currencies swap function and leverage the ZeUPay gateway to custodians, financial institutions and banks.

MulaMail users not only acquire an enhanced digital wallet when they subscribe to the service, but they will also have the option to actively run peer-to-peer applications in different fields. One of the most significant will be the ability to lend digital assets to the distributed exchange platform and create sub-tokens allowing the listing of their own assets, consequently running for profit their own mini decentralized and distributed digital exchange.

Mula Contract Builder

Mula Contract Builders allows users to build smart contracts within the system without knowledge of programming, or blockchain or digital wallet technology. It also allows power users and knowledgeable developers to plug in more complex contract development code. The contract builder can be used for anything from invoices to marriage contracts. However, the Company expects that majority of the usage will come from is Mula business suite of products and its gaming initiatives.

Figure 2: Simple Language Smart Contract Builder

The Company has chosen to offer these products on the Mula Platform to leverage the platform’s ease of use and switching between modules. The Company believes the ability to run the suite of products from one dashboard is cost-efficient and a value-add for time-pressed individuals and businesses.

Adoption strategy

The Mula team is expecting to develop some basic smart contract components compatible with the largest digital currencies.  This will allow a regular user to build digital offerings without the need to understand blockchain or digital wallet technology.

The simplest case study is one of a sports betting pool between friends or work colleagues.  Let’s say that Peter is secretly a big fan of RB Leipzig (stay with us, don’t laugh), a German soccer club.  Peter will be able to invite via his MulaMail contacts and his friends to participate in a private, closed, peer-to-peer betting pool on any number of customized betting offerings of his choosing in regard to German soccer. This could be anything from the players to be traded to finally improve that team to where the different teams will place at the end of the season — all without disclosing to his friends that he secretly despises FC Bayern. The smart contract will automatically compute results and pay-outs. He will also have the option to configure the pool in such a way that will show the other users what he is betting on or to configure it as a “black pool” (English Soccer fan, not the team…).

To fund his Mula account, Peter will be able to monetize marketing tokens he received from various marketers and swap these tokens for MulaPay tokens, or he will be able to buy MulaPay tokens from within his ZeUPay account.  MulaMail users automatically obtain a ZeUPay account when signing for MulaMail. If he wins, he will be able to cash out his MulaPay tokens via the ZeUPay interface, use his ZeUPay debit card for payments, or withdraw the amount for fiat currency .

MulaMail Inbox Hybridization

The new semi-centralized approach to MulaMail inbox management fixes three important issues:

  • – Employers needing to monitor enterprise communications – Law enforcement and court-ordered “Lawful Intercept” – Offline operations

“ The MulaMail team plans to replace Simple Mail Transfer Protocol (SMTP) with the next generation Blockchain Mail Transfer Protocol (BMTP)”

The MulaMail team is edging toward a hybrid system to ensure full message encryption, end-to-end, at rest and in transit, so that even the Company itself would not be able to read messages stored on the network and on the different distributed storage. For performance and end-user cost optimization, all encrypted messages and attachments are stored in local hosts. The system itself will be deployed on a partially centralized database, and decentralized authentication will stand on a public ledger.

Search functionality within an email mailbox is important to end-users. However, indexing without content is difficult. Therefore, to bring in a viable search feature, the team had to resolve what would be indexable. By default, only the content of the message will be encrypted, allowing the subject to remain unencrypted. For those who want full meta encryption, the user can opt to encrypt the subject, therefore giving less flexibility on the search feature. In any case, the sender and recipient(s) will be stored with one-sided encryption at rest.  All data will be end-to-end encrypted in transit. Here is a diagram to illustrate the different behaviors:

Monetizing Mula

The Mula platform is to be distributed on freemium/premium/enterprise versions.  A small income is expected from the latter two versions in the form of subscription payments.

However, the blood of the overall ecosystem is the movement of the MulaPay utility tokens, for which ZeU will collect fractional and frictional fees. Certification and audits should bring additional income as well as certain activities within the platform, like gaming and trading of digital assets.

Other Corporate Matters

ZeUPay, the augmented evolution of Prego International Group

The Company is pleased to report that integration planification with Prego International Group is well underway. The companies have established January 18, 2021, as the target date to close the acquisition and corporate integration within ZeU’s new subsidiary, ZeUPay.

ZeUPay will bring custodial and legacy banking support for the Mula Platform as well as ZeU’s other DeFi and Gaming initiatives.  It will offer default legacy KYC and AML coverage for a suite of initiatives without limiting the possibilities to bring third-party augmented compliance offerings for which the Company is actively seeking commercial partnerships.

Ronald Eriksen, CEO of Prego International Group stated : “(…) Prego`s team has been dedicated, both from a management and technical angle, to prepare the integration of our business platform to ZeU (…) We have strong ambitions to provide opportunities for the integrated group to deliver attractive products and services to any customer in the markets we enter (…) Following this, we are convinced that ZeUPay will succeed and produce growing volumes and profits, and in the end this will give our shareholders a significant return on their investments.”

ZeU Financial Situation

In the current fiscal quarter, the Company has earned cash revenues allowing it to cover past development expenses and invoices. It also expects to bring in digital assets that can be monetized to cover continuous development.  Part of these digital assets is related to the Borealis DEX initiative with HTrust and HODLdex.

Core management and directors have suspended taking payments for their compensation since Q2. The Company expects to cover some of these accrued liabilities with a share for debt offering priced at $0.25 before the end of the current year. The Company also expects to issue stock-options for key developers and management. These options are tentatively priced at $0.30.

Frank Dumas, ZeU’s CEO, commented : “(…) The team has done an astounding job of pulling together the various obligations and feedback we have encountered and moulding it into a viable product. In the beginning, it felt insurmountable, but the team persevered and created something beyond my expectation. (…) I fully endorsed the philosophical changes for Mula. In the end, it allows us to offer a stronger product to more people, breaking us out of the ‘blockchain email’ niche and making us a real competitor for certain major players in the industry (…)”.

  • Announced that its Gold River and Cubeler Lending Hub platforms are now ready to support China’s new Digital Currency Electronic Payment (DC/EP).
  • Unlike cryptocurrencies such as Bitcoin, China’s DC/EP is legal tender, it’s backed by yuan deposits, centralized and not anonymous.
  • It is managed by China’s Central Bank, which requires the country’s banks to convert a part of their yuan holdings into DC/EP form and distribute them to businesses and citizens via mobile technology.
  • The DC/EP took over five years to develop and is expected to help bring China’s unbanked population into the mainstream economy and accelerate the country’s move to a cashless society.

Montreal, Quebec–(December 11, 2020) –  Peak Fintech Group Inc. (CSE: PKK) (OTCQX: PKKFF) (“Peak” or the “Company”), an innovative Fintech service provider to the Chinese commercial lending sector, today announced that its Gold River and Cubeler Lending Hub platforms are now ready to support China’s new Digital Currency Electronic Payment (DC/EP).

Unlike cryptocurrencies such as Bitcoin, China’s DC/EP is legal tender, it’s backed by yuan deposits, centralized and not anonymous. It is managed by China’s Central Bank, which requires the country’s banks to convert a part of their yuan holdings into DC/EP form and distribute them to businesses and citizens via mobile technology. The DC/EP took over five years to develop and is expected to help bring China’s unbanked population into the mainstream economy and accelerate the country’s move to a cashless society.

Peak began preparing its platforms for the DC/EP last month with the hiring of former People’s Bank of China senior manager, Mr. Wenjun Wu, as a special advisor to assist the Company in that capacity. Through Mr. Wu’s expertise in the matter and his relationship with the Postal Savings Bank of China (http://www.psbc.com/en/), one of a select few banks with the DC/EP API, Peak’s platforms are now among the first to provide clients with the ability to conduct DC/EP transactions. In addition to its inherent security features, the DC/EP offers several benefits to businesses and financial institutions alike. For instance, loans and credit transactions conducted in DC/EP will on average carry lower interest rates than similar transactions conducted in regular yuan and transactions will be settled instantly, all of which are expected to make DC/EP transactions the preferred way of conducting business in China, and a way to increase transaction volume on Peak’s platforms. The Company plans to run a pilot project beginning later this month with a few supply-chain financing related transactions before making the feature available to all Gold River and Lending Hub clients.

Peak’s DC/EP pilot project will coincide with the arrival of Xingcheng Special Steel Works Ltd. (“XSSW”) (https://xctg.citicsteel.com/) to the Cubeler Lending Hub Ecosystem. XSSW is a subsidiary of conglomerate CITIC Ltd. (https://www.citic.com/en/). It’s the 2nd largest supplier of specialized steel products in China servicing a variety of industries and manufacturers with products such as bearings, alloy steel wires, plates, rods and springs that go into the making of numerous products. Peak and XSSW were connected through the Jiangyin Financial Centre following a series of financing requests from Jiangyin manufacturers to purchase material from XSSW. By officially adding XSSW to Lending Hub’s list of approved suppliers and working in partnership with XSSW, Peak will now be able to offer its supply-chain financing services to all XSSW clients through joint marketing initiatives.

Wall Street Reporter’s NEXT SUPER STOCK Livestream – December 15, 2020

Peak will be a featured presenter at Wall Street Reporter’s NEXT SUPER STOCK livestream conference on Tuesday, December 15, 2020 at 1:00pm EST.

Peak $PKK.ca $PKKFF to Acquire Banking AI Software Company Zhongke Software Intelligence Ltd. $MOS.ca $MOGO.ca CTZ.ca $TRAD.ca $IDK.ca

Posted by AGORACOM-JC at 7:42 AM on Wednesday, December 9th, 2020
Peak Fintech Group (@PEAK_Fintech) | Twitter
  • Announced that it has signed a memorandum of understanding (MOU) to acquire banking artificial intelligence software company Zhongke Software Intelligence Ltd.
  • Zhongke (http://www.inforich.com.cn/) develops analytics and AI software used by banks and financial institutions in China to make decisions on loan and credit applications, as well as to process and to manage the applications.
  • Zhongke is also a strategic partner of China UnionPay (http://www.unionpayintl.com/en/).
  • Operating under the approval of the People’s Bank of China (China’s central bank), State-owned UnionPay is China’s largest POS electronic funds transfer network and the only interbank network in China that links all the automatic teller machines (ATMs) of all banks throughout the country.

Montreal, Quebec–(December 9, 2020) – Peak Fintech Group Inc. (CSE: PKK) (OTCQX: PKKFF) (“Peak” or the “Company”), an innovative Fintech service provider to the Chinese commercial lending sector, today announced that it has signed a memorandum of understanding (MOU) to acquire banking artificial intelligence software company Zhongke Software Intelligence Ltd. (“Zhongke”).

Zhongke (http://www.inforich.com.cn/) develops analytics and AI software used by banks and financial institutions in China to make decisions on loan and credit applications, as well as to process and to manage the applications. Zhongke is also a strategic partner of China UnionPay (http://www.unionpayintl.com/en/). Operating under the approval of the People’s Bank of China (China’s central bank), State-owned UnionPay is China’s largest POS electronic funds transfer network and the only interbank network in China that links all the automatic teller machines (ATMs) of all banks throughout the country. According to Wikipedia, UnionPay is the largest card payment organization (debit and credit cards combined) in the world, ahead of Visa and Mastercard.

Zhongke’s IP portfolio includes 3 patents, 42 copyrights, and 3 trademarks. All software developed by the company is CMMI Level 3 compliant. CMMI is an international process level improvement training and appraisal standard established by Carnegie Mellon University. It is often required in software development contracts from governments around the world including the US and Chinese governments. Zhongke’s software is currently used by 34 banks and financial institutions.

According to the terms of the MOU, Peak and Zhongke will first sign a strategic partnership agreement to pilot a new financing program targeting the restaurant industry and Zhongke’s banking clients using new software developed by Zhongke. The pilot will run for a three-month period during which Peak will conduct its due diligence on Zhongke and the parties will finalize the terms of the proposed acquisition. Peak’s compensation package for the acquisition will be capped at CAD$20M, which will be payable to Zhongke in a combination of cash and common shares over a certain period of time with the number of common shares payable to be based on the prevailing market price of the common shares at the time they are issued.

“This proposed acquisition is very strategic for us on several levels,” commented Peak CEO Johnson Joseph. “Our study of the banking and commercial lending landscape in China shows that the majority of the small, medium and micro businesses, who stand to benefit the most from our Lending Hub services, are served not by large banks but rather by smaller local banks and lending institutions who also happen to be the financial institutions best suited for Zhongke’s product offering. Our Lending Hub platform makes it easier for banks to lend to small businesses by gathering and analyzing data coming from the businesses and a variety of external data sources, but we found that internally some banks were unable to take full advantage of the platform’s capabilities as they were struggling with some manual procedures, for instance when it came time to sharing loan repayment data with Lending Hub. With this acquisition and the eventual integration of Zhongke’s software to Lending Hub, Peak will be in a position to offer China’s thousands of small banks, whether located in large cities, small towns or rural regions, an end-to-end solution to automate their commercial lending activities, including bringing them new clients. With the integration of the platform, we also expect the AI components of both Lending Hub and Zhongke’s software to continuously improve as they share data with each other. We believe that the insight that Peak will have into these transactions, with data points coming from the banks’ internal systems coupled with data points on the operations of the small businesses that are part of the Lending Hub ecosystem, will be exceptional, if not unprecedented. The value of the combination of that data can’t be overstated,” concluded Mr. Joseph.

“When we understood Peak’s vision with the creation of the Lending Hub ecosystem and the important role that our software would play in helping bring that vision to life, the decision to join the Group was an easy one,” said Zhongke Founder and CEO, Changshu Hu. “I look forward to finalizing our agreement as quickly as possible and couldn’t be more excited about the impact that I believe we will have on the automation of commercial lending to genuinely help small businesses across the country reach their full potential.”

VIDEO – $KABN.ca Forms Consortium Of Industry Leaders, Including Loop Insights $MTRX.ca To Digital Healthcare Passports For COVID-19 Vaccinations $MOS.ca $MOGO.ca $CTZ.ca

Posted by AGORACOM-JC at 5:35 PM on Tuesday, December 8th, 2020

Facebook and other tech giants showed the world that sharing our private data and profiting from it is a major issue.  It became such a major issue that sweeping laws have been enacted in Europe (GDPR) and the United States (CCPA) that not only puts a stop to these practices but also demand that individuals are given the opportunity to take control of their digital identities – and even profit from them.

The term is often referred to as “Self Sovereign Identity (SSI)” and though it sounds kind of complicated, it actually sounds like music to the ears of investors that want to learn more about this massive global trend.

KABN is the small cap company that is leaps and bounds ahead of any other small cap company in this space.  Their technology is damn cool (check out www.LiquidAvatar.com) and their global recognition is even better given their recent addition to the Trust Over IP Foundation as a Steering Member, joining the likes of IBM, Mastercard, Accenture and other global giants that are forming an ecosystem around SSI

This is a global paradigm shift that you DO NOT want to miss because it is happening right now and KABN is the leading small cap company for investors to gain exposure.

HOW?

KABN Turns The Problem Of Data Privacy Into A Profit For Individuals … and now they are going one step further by enabling healthcare issuers, individuals and verifiers to have a digital COVID-19 verifiable identity healthcare credential that is secure, user managed and controlled to ensure privacy, transportability and ease of use. This solution supports the foundation for the acceptance of digital Healthcare Passports.

Verified Self Sovereign Identity, together with a complete end-to-end issuance and verification health credentials ecosystem, ensures individuals have full privacy and control of personal healthcare data, including vaccination records, so they can securely start returning back to public life, freely.

  • Announced the formation of a consortium of industry leaders that will empower people to start getting back to the activities, people and places they have been missing in their lives.
  • The consortium has developed an integrated solution that enables healthcare issuers, individuals and verifiers to have a digital COVID-19 verifiable identity healthcare credential that is secure, user managed and controlled to ensure privacy, transportability and ease of use.
  • This solution supports the foundation for the acceptance of digital Healthcare Passports.

TORONTO, ON and GIBRALTAR December 8, 2020 / The KABN Network, together with KABN Systems NA Holdings Corp. (CSE:KABN) (the “Company” or “KABN North America”), a Canadian fintech company that specializes in continuous online identity verification, management and monetization in Canada and the US, through its biometrically and identity verified Self Sovereign Identity platform, Liquid Avatar (www.liquidavatar.com), today announces the formation of a consortium of industry leaders that will empower people to start getting back to the activities, people and places they have been missing in their lives. The consortium has developed an integrated solution that enables healthcare issuers, individuals and verifiers to have a digital COVID-19 verifiable identity healthcare credential that is secure, user managed and controlled to ensure privacy, transportability and ease of use. This solution supports the foundation for the acceptance of digital Healthcare Passports.

This consortium initially includes the Lumedic Exchange, to power the healthcare credential ecosystem; Loop Insights (MTRX), a leader in automatic contact tracing; The Campus Agency, to support on campus programs at over 2,000 US Colleges and Universities; and TripXpertz, an organization that works with over 1,000 travel and tourism boards, airlines, wholesalers and resorts, together with Liquid Avatar’s Self Sovereign Identity platform to empower the worldwide Healthcare industry to issue Identity-based Verifiable Credentials through a secure, effective and cost-efficient ecosystem.

This ecosystem will allow qualified Health Professionals with the ability to issue a Verifiable Credential that enables venues and other facilities to verify both the issued credential and the known user in real-time to grant access and / or services. This partnership built on a Trust over IP (TOIP) open standards framework, and the World Wide Web Consortium’s (W3C) specifications for decentralized identifiers for credential management, can power interoperable COVID-19 vaccination and other verifiable credentials across a host of user managed and controlled digital wallets and applications. This process can be used for multiple use cases such as Education, Workplaces, Tradeshows, Healthcare, Sporting Events, Concerts, Entertainment, Travel, Places of Worship, Senior Living, and other facilities, venues and locations and opens the door to further opportunities for commercial and consumer opportunities.

Liquid Avatar’s Self Sovereign Identity (SSI) platform, which includes user biometric validation and a bank-grade verified identity credential, is available to consumers at no cost. Liquid Avatar enables users to verify and manage their identity and access credentials in a cloud-based, biometrically-secure application. Users have complete control over their digital assets (like wallets, passwords and more), identity, and data through easy to use avatars that can be shared, on a permission-basis with others. The COVID-19 Verifiable Healthcare Credential combines healthcare data with the user’s biometrically verified identity credential. When a request is made by a Verifier, the User has a choice of which attributes are shared, creating a private verification transaction between themselves and a verifier. While much of the technology and services are already in place, the launch of the healthcare credential pilot is expected to take place in the first quarter of 2021 to coincide with the expected release of the COVID-19 widespread vaccination program.

This program will not only be able to verify identity credentials for the Covid-19 vaccines, diagnostic and antibody testing, but will also be able to support a wide range of immunizations and healthcare records.

“We want to empower users to return to public life and the things they once did freely, pre-COVID-19, with ease and continued safety, with this and future credentials,” said David Lucatch, CEO of KABN. “Our goal is to help get everyone back to life as efficiently and effectively as possible, so a sense of “normality” can be reestablished. Liquid Avatar and the ecosystem, together with this amazing group and a growing list of partners, will potentially enable businesses, schools, entertainment venues, and more do the normal things that they do and give users the power to engage with them as they did before the pandemic changed our lives.”

Healthcare issuers and individuals will be granted access to the system at no cost. Verifiers wishing to access the system will be charged a nominal subscription and micro-payment per verification, making it very cost efficient and effective to use the system for small and medium sized enterprises all the way up to major airlines, venues and facilities. The partners are committed to making the services affordable to all parties, so that everyone can get back to their everyday lives.

The KABN Network is working with leading industry partners to provide a safe and effective ecosystem that supports the issuance, ownership and verification of these verified identity and access credentials and is proud to be working with the following partners at the outset of this announcement covering a wide range of technologies, issuer, consumer and verification engagement, with additional partners to be named as the program grows.

Trust over IP Foundation (ToIP)

As a member of the Trust over IP Foundation (www.trustoverip.org) steering committee, The KABN Network is committed to the organization’s open-standard framework and tech stacks. ToIP recently released its Covid-19 Credentials Initiative (“CCI”) Governance Framework for public review.

“Trust over IP offers an important new model for how to assemble the pieces that create working and reliable digital trust ecosystems. We are very excited to see momentum growing for real-world cases where the model is being used to make people’s digital lives simpler and better. This includes the KABN Network becoming part of the Lumedic Exchange,” said John Jordan – Executive Director of the Trust over IP Foundation. “We hope to see this momentum continue, and more organizations using the Trust over IP model to create solutions that benefit individuals and businesses.”

Lumedic Exchange

The KABN Network, as a founding partner, is working with the Lumedic Exchange (www.lumedic.io), an open-standards, decentralized framework for the healthcare industry giving patients greater control over their health data.

Chris Ingrao, Chief Strategy Officer of Lumedic, a US-based Health technology company, part of Providence Health Systems ecosystem, comments: “Lumedic recently launched the Lumedic Exchange, the first healthcare ecosystem of its kind dedicated solely to community-driven standards development for patient-intermediated information exchange using verifiable credentials, to support secure exchange of vaccination information.”

Loop Insights, Inc.

Powering professional sports, entertainment, collegiate and other venues and facilities with Automatic Contract Tracing, Loop Insights, Inc. (www.loopinsights.ai) (MTRX) has developed a fully managed contactless check-in platform that securely transfers contact information and triggers real-time notifications at scale.

“The success Loop has had with our recent NCAA sporting events using our venue tracing and management tools, only reinforces the need for a unified verifiable credential that consumers and businesses can trust. Working with KABN and Liquid Avatar and their digital identity platform will provide our customers – and ultimately consumers – with the level of trust required to provide personal information such as COVID testing results, vaccination proof, payment, and other sensitive personal information required in today’s changing landscape. We are thrilled to be one of the first partners to work with KABN and Liquid Avatar on an end to end solution that will provide this safety, security, and peace of mind required to protect consumers looking to return to a new way of life where mobile devices and personal information will be at the forefront of nearly every interaction”, Rob Anson, President and CEO Loop Insights.

With reach to over 2,000 US College and University campuses and over 1.5 Million Gen Z students, alumni and families, The Campus Agency (www.thecampusagency.com) has been supporting innovative direct to student and online marketing programs for over 40 years.

“We are really excited to be working with KABN and Liquid Avatar and be a member of this consortium. COVID-19 has impacted the lives of students and faculty on college campuses in such a major way, and we are looking forward to being part of a solution that provides campus communities with the tools and resources they need to return to their way of lives, safely and securely,” Chris Nyland, Chief Operating Officer, The Campus Agency

VIDEO – KABN North America $KABN.ca Is The Small Cap Turning Data Privacy Into A Profit For Individuals $MOS.ca $MOGO.ca $CTZ.ca

Facebook and other tech giants showed the world that sharing our private data and profiting from it is a major issue.  It became such a major issue that sweeping laws have been enacted in Europe (GDPR) and the United States (CCPA) that not only puts a stop to these practices but also demand that individuals are given the opportunity to take control of their digital identities – and even profit from them.

The term is often referred to as “Self Sovereign Identity (SSI)” and though it sounds kind of complicated, it actually sounds like music to the ears of investors that want to learn more about this massive global trend.

KABN is the small cap company that is leaps and bounds ahead of any other small cap company in this space.  Their technology is damn cool (check out www.LiquidAvatar.com) and their global recognition is even better given their recent addition to the Trust Over IP Foundation as a Steering Member, joining the likes of IBM, Mastercard, Accenture and other global giants that are forming an ecosystem around SSI

This is a global paradigm shift that you DO NOT want to miss because it is happening right now and KABN is the leading small cap company for investors to gain exposure.

Watch this powerful interview with KABN CEO David Lucatch.
