Further Crypto Carnage Ensues, Coinbase Exploring Offering More Coins Including XRP and Malaysia's Central Bank and Securities Regulator to Collaborate on Digital Asset Regulation

The market has continued to deteriorate overnight with total market capitalization having dropped from $117 billion USD at the time of yesterday's Crypto Corner, to just $105 billion USD at press time, according to CoinMarketCap. Predictably, this means that most major coins are firmly in the red, with many experiencing double-digit losses. Surprisingly, Bitcoin SV, the loser of the recent hash war, has overtaken the victorious ABC (BCH) version.
Mati Greenspan, Senior Market Analyst at eToro, addresses the formulation that Bitcoin's (BTC) break below $6000 is the result of a series of promotions by South Korean exchange Bithumb. Greenspan said:
"If these findings are indeed accurate, I would say that blaming South Korea for the drop wouldn't exactly be correct. More likely, it appears that the volume promotion by Bithumb caused several months of stabilization in prices, to begin with.
Of course, it's just a theory at this point. True or not, we maintain that all of the recent volatility in the crypto markets has been driven by technical factors. After the breakout of $5,000, we mentioned light support at $3,500, which has now been broken. The next key area of support that is being tested now is $3,000."
Coinbase revealed in a blog post today that they were exploring support for new digital assets, most notable the second-biggest by market cap, XRP. The post explains Coinbase's aim of making as many compliant assets available to users as possible.
Coinbase's goal is to offer support for all assets that meet our standards and are fully compliant with local law. Over time, we intend to offer our customers access to greater than 90% of all compliant digital assets by market cap.
Malaysia's central bank and securities regulator have issued a joint statement concerning the regulation of digital assets. According to the release, both the Securities Commission Malaysia (SC) and Bank Negara Malaysia (BNM) will collaborate to regulate digital currencies and tokens.

EU Outlines Plan to Boost Growth and Investment in AI

The European Commission has issued a press release detailing the aims of member states in boosting artificial intelligence growth in the EU. Extending to non-member states, including Norway and Switzerland, the plan highlights increasing investment, making more data available, fostering talent and ensuring trust, as key areas to expand growth. Andrus Ansip, vice president for the Digital Single Market highlighted the importance of AI and outlined investment goals for the EU.
"I am pleased to see that European countries have made good progress. We agreed to work together to pool data - the raw material for AI - in sectors such as healthcare to improve cancer diagnosis and treatment. We will coordinate investments: our aim is to reach at least €20 billion of private and public investments by the end of 2020. This is essential for growth and jobs. AI is not a nice-to-have, it is about our future".
An excerpt from the press release reads:
Investment levels for AI in the EU are low and fragmented, compared with other parts of the world such as the US and China. In line with the AI strategy presented in April, the plan foresees increased coordination of investments, leading to higher synergies and at least €20 billion of public and private investments in research and innovation in AI from now until the end of 2020 and more than €20 billion per year from public and private investments over the following decade. Complementing national investments, the Commission will invest €1.5 billion by 2020, 70% more than in compared to 2014-2017. For the next long-term EU budget (2021-2027) the EU has proposed to invest at least €7 billion from Horizon Europe and the Digital Europe Programme in AI.

Qualcomm Unveils Snapdragon 8cx Compute Platform, HCL Technologies to Acquire $1.8 Billion of Software Products from IBM and Carl Data Solutions Announces Integration of AB Embedded Systems and Astra Smart Systems

Stocks discussed: (NasdaqGS:QCOM) (NSE:HCLTECH) (NYSE:IBM) (CNSX:CRL)

Qualcomm Technologies, Inc., a subsidiary of QUALCOMM Incorporated (NasdaqGS:QCOM), has unveiled the Qualcomm Snapdragon 8cx Compute Platform, the world's first 7 nanometer PC platform. The new platform boasts cutting-edge graphics, doubled memory from 64 bit to 128 bit wide, and includes the new Qualcomm Adreno 680 GPU, the most powerful GPU ever designed by Qualcomm Technologies, Inc. Alex Katouzian, senior vice president and general manager of mobile for Qualcomm Technologies said:
"With performance and battery life as our design tenets, we're bringing 7nm innovations to the PC space, allowing for smartphone-like capabilities to transform the computing experience. As the fastest Snapdragon platform ever, the Snapdragon 8cx will allow our customers to offer a powerful computing experience of multi-day battery life and multi-gigabit connectivity, in new thin, light and fanless design for consumers and the enterprise."
HCL Technologies Limited (NSE:HCLTECH) will acquire select software products from IBM (NYSE:IBM) worth $1.8 billion USD. According to a press release the software products in scope represent a total addressable market of more than $50 billion and include: Appscan, BigFix, Unica, Commerce, Portal, Notes & Domino. A comment from John Kelly, IBM senior vice president of Cognitive Solutions Research explains the move:
"Over the last four years, we have been prioritizing our investments to develop integrated capabilities in areas such as AI for business, hybrid cloud, cybersecurity, analytics, supply chain and blockchain as well as industry-specific platforms and solutions including healthcare, industrial IOT, and financial services. These are among the emerging, high-value segments of the IT industry. As a result, IBM is a leader in these segments today. We believe the time is right to divest these select collaboration, marketing and commerce software assets, which are increasingly delivered as stand-alone products. At the same time, we believe these products are a strong strategic fit for HCL, and that HCL is well positioned to drive innovation and growth for their customers."
Carl Data Solutions Inc. (CNSX:CRL) has announced that the assets of AB Embedded Systems Ltd. are now fully integrated with recent acquisition Astra Smart Systems, Inc. Astra CEO, Pilar Portela, explained that with the integration of the two companies, product goals are looking achievable in the near term.
"The hardware and firmware assets from AB Embedded, combined with Astra's sensor expertise, manufacturing capacity and unique AI development laboratory means big steps forward for our product lines. We are very excited to bring affordable, easily integrated industrial IoT devices to market in the near future."

Investorideas.com - The Future of the Cannabis Beverage Sector and Shift of Key Players: Sproutly (CSE: $SPR.C) (OTCQB: $SRUTF), PEPSICO (NASDAQ: $PEP) Anheuser-Busch (NYSE: $BUD) and New Age Beverages (NASDAQ: $NBEV)

Investorideas.com - The Future of the Cannabis Beverage Sector and Shift of Key Players: Sproutly (CSE: $SPR.C) (OTCQB: $SRUTF), PEPSICO (NASDAQ: $PEP) Anheuser-Busch (NYSE: $BUD) and New Age Beverages (NASDAQ: $NBEV)



The Future of the Cannabis Beverage Sector and Shift of Key Players: Sproutly (CSE: $SPR.C) (OTCQB: $SRUTF), PEPSICO (NASDAQ: $PEP) Anheuser-Busch (NYSE: $BUD) and New Age Beverages (NASDAQ: $NBEV)


Point Roberts, WA - December 7, 2018 (Investorideas.com Newswire) Investorideas.com, a global news source covering leading sectors including marijuana and hemp stocks, releases a sector snapshot looking at the race for positioning in the future cannabis beverage space, with companies targeting key executives from the beverage industry as well as expanding with corporate acquisitions in the alcoholic and non-alcoholic beverage sector.
High expectations on the passing of the US 2018 Farm Bill, as well as Canada's anticipated edibles roll-out in 2019, have pushed cannabis infused beverage companies to continue to add to their company rosters ensuring they are fully prepared to seize the massive CBD beverage market in Canada, the US and internationally.
Looking to the future, Sproutly Canada, Inc. (CSE:SPR) (OTCQB:SRUTF) (38G.F), a licensed cannabis producer in Canada that has secured a natural water soluble technology to redefine cannabis beverages, just announced two new hires from the beverage sector, adding to their already seasoned team. The company brought on both Melise Panetta to the senior leadership team as Vice President of Sales and Marketing, to focus on the Company's branding, marketing and sales objectives, as well as Bryan Semkuley to the senior leadership team as President of Sproutly, to accelerate the Company's strategic objectives of becoming a leading cannabis formulations company focused on beverages.
Melise Panetta most recently led the sales strategy as Director of Sales for SC Johnson, a privately held global consumer packaged goods company and was responsible for delivering profitable category and brand growth for 200+ customers across multiple classes of trade including Sobeys, Save on Foods, London Drugs, and Federated Co-op among others. Prior to her role as Director of Sales, Melise was Head of Marketing with responsibilities including realigning their investment strategy behind brands, establishing their strategic net revenue framework and delivering strong market share gains. Previous to SC Johnson, Melise held roles of increasing responsibility at PEPSICO, Inc. (NASDAQ:PEP) for 8 years, most recently as Senior Marketing Manager, Corporate Initiatives.
In a recent release Keith Dolo, CEO of Sproutly stated, "We are very excited for Melise to be joining the Sproutly leadership team. She brings a tremendous amount of sales, marketing and branding experience from established consumer packaged goods and beverage companies to Sproutly. Her proven track record, along with her drive to form winning brands will allow Sproutly to successfully deliver on our product brand strategy," concluded Keith.
Regarding the addition of Bryan Semkuley, Dolo has similar sentiment, saying, "We are pleased that Mr. Semkuley has chosen to join the leadership team of Sproutly as President. Bryan brings significant experience in branding, marketing, sales and most importantly, global product innovation and expertise from recognized multinational consumer packaged goods and beverage companies. Our ability to continue executing on our business objectives, defining our competitive advantages and attracting top talent to our management team and Board of Directors further validates our commitment to becoming a leading cannabis company, with a clear focus on the beverage category," he concluded.
Bryan Semkuley is a seasoned executive with over 30+ years leading global innovation and marketing teams for Fortune 200 companies including Kimberly-Clark, Anheuser-Busch InBev (NYSE:BUD) and Labatt. Mr. Semkuley will focus on the execution of the Company's strategic objectives, development of its operational plan and will work diligently to tie in the different vertical divisions of sales, marketing, product innovation, operations and branding to deliver top-line growth.
Mr. Semkuley has extensive experience and a proven established track record of building new and existing brands and businesses through new product development, channel relationships and commercial innovation. Prior to joining Sproutly, Mr. Semkuley was Vice President, Global Innovation/Industrial Sector at Kimberly-Clark, a US$19B NYSE-listed American multinational consumer packaged goods company focused on personal care products. Before joining Kimberly-Clark, Mr. Semkuley spent over 25 years at Anheuser-Busch InBev, a US$130B NYSE-listed beverage company and Labatt as Vice President Global Innovation, Vice President Global Brand Marketing and Vice President Marketing, amongst other roles.
Mr. Semkuley has similar company with his move from Anheuser-Busch InBev to entering the cannabis sector, as news hit in September this year that Adolphus A. Busch V, great-great-grandson of the late founder of Anheuser Busch announced the launch of his eponymous cannabis brand, ABV Cannabis Company.
In a news release, Adolphus Busch V, founder of ABV Cannabis Co. discussed his move to the cannabis sector. "Growing up I always knew I wanted to work in the family business, creating quality and affordable products that appealed to a variety of consumers. However, once I saw all the incredible benefits that cannabis could bring to people and the immense opportunity presented by the cannabis industry, I knew I could take all I learned from my pioneering family heritage and create a new legacy for myself in the cannabis space."
Companies like New Age Beverages (NASDAQ: NBEV) have taken a slightly different approach by simply acquiring new companies to posture for the future. NBEV stock jumped 8% on Monday, after rising as much as 15.6% earlier in the day, following the company announcing that it was acquiring Morinda Holdings, a Utah-based company specializing in health beverages, for $85 million - $75 million in cash and $10 million in New Age stock.
This merger will create the 40th largest non-alcoholic beverage company in the world with $300 million in net revenue, $20 million in adjusted EBITDA, $200 million in assets, no debt and $40 million in cash and working capital. This deal, which is expected to close by the end of December, also provides New Age's Health Sciences products and portfolio of CBD-infused beverages immediate access into 60 countries, with the big two being China and Japan.
Beveragedaily.com, looking at the 2019 beverage trends: Top predictions for the coming year notes 2019 will see interest focus on CBD as a functional ingredient. Though there is still speculation on how and when the big giants like PEPSICO Inc. and Coca Cola Bottling Co. will enter into the cannabis space, it seems some of the key executives working for those companies are willing to bet on this new beverage trend.

Smart CT Solutions purchase includes select products from the growing PATSCAN family of covert threat detection solutions. Smart CT Solutions decided to invest in this 90-day paid trial program for key clients, while also reviewing additional covert threat detection solutions that are currently undergoing extensive review at Patriot One's Las Vegas development center. Once approved and accepted by the Patriot One team, Smart CT Solutions plans to adopt several of the new PATSCAN threat detection products for introduction to their client base beginning with a charter school located in Miami Dade-County.

Our clients' security teams will now have the opportunity to respond quickly and appropriately to threats and disturbances identified and reported by these innovative technologies. As part of our collaboration effort with Patriot One, we have created a go-to-market campaign with awareness in new technologies to penetrate the Florida marketplace, adding other approved PATSCAN solutions into many client facilities later in 2019 post successful trials."
Smart CT Solutions has been an Authorized Security System Integrator /Reseller of Patriot One since 2017. The company has been servicing Southern Florida businesses and government organizations for almost a decade helping customers implement security solutions for their properties such as video surveillance, smart lighting, and in-building networks.

"We're eager to support our only Florida authorized reseller Smart CT Solutions with these paid trial deployments of our PATSCAN technologies with their clients," expressed Martin Cronin, CEO and President of Patriot One Technologies. "Over the past year, our engineering and business development teams have been working closely with Roberto Gonzalez and Smart CT Solutions to introduce our threat detection solutions to their clients. Today, we are excited to begin installing these solutions with the shared goal of detecting threats before they become tragedies."
Smart CT Solutions and the Patriot One engineering teams will begin trials on all PATSCAN products installations at several Florida locations beginning in December 2018 through Q1, 2019. Additional PATSCAN solutions, as they get approved, will be scheduled for advanced paid trial installations with key Smart CT clients throughout 2019.

Today's podcast overview/transcript:
Good afternoon, welcome to another Investorideas.com "potcast", featuring stocks to watch, cannabis news as well as insights from thought leaders and experts.
Today we will be looking at announcements from 1933 Industries Inc. (CSE: TGIF) (OTCQX: TGIFF), Canopy Growth Corporation (TSX: WEED) (NYSE: CGC), FSD Pharma Inc. (CSE: HUGE) (OTCQB: FSDDF) and Ovation Science Inc. (CSE: OVAT).
1933 Industries Inc. a licensed cultivator and producer of cannabis flower and concentrates and manufacturer of hemp/CBD products in Nevada, Colorado and California, announced that it has met the eligibility requirements and has been accepted for trading on the OTCQX®, the OTC Markets' premier tier. The Company's common shares will continue to trade under the symbol TGIFF. The OTCQX® Best Market top tier is for established, high-growth and investor-focused companies wishing to gain added exposure in the United States.
Companies trading on the OTCQX® Best Market are distinguished by the integrity of their operations, have met certain financial asset tests and have demonstrated compliance with US securities laws and with disclosure requirements. OTCQX companies gain added exposure to US retail and institutional investors.
"Meeting the OTCQX® Best Market high financial and corporate governance standards was a significant milestone for the Company during our first year of trading", commented Mr. Brayden Sutton, President and CEO of 1933 Industries. He added, "As a US-focused issuer, we view graduating to the OTCQX® Best Market as an important step in our Company's growth. Not only does it provide greater visibility and profile for our Company as we continue to penetrate legal markets in the US, but it allows us to connect with an expanded and diverse network of potential investors".
Canopy Growth Corporation has finalized an all-cash transaction to acquire Storz & Bickel GmbH & Co. KG, related entities, and IP for a purchase price of up to approximately €145 million. With a 22-year track record of breakthrough innovations, Storz & Bickel is widely recognized as the global leader in vaporizer design and manufacturing.
Based in Tuttlingen, Germany, Storz & Bickel are designers and manufacturers of medically approved vaporizers, most notably the Volcano® Medic and the Mighty® Medic. Storz & Bickel has spent the last two decades developing an automated and internationally certified factory, achieving ISO 13485 certification in 2009. The company has exported devices to 50 markets around the world.
The acquisition will see Storz & Bickel's eponymous founders Markus Storz and Jürgen Bickel remaining as a part of the organization to continue driving the business forward alongside Canopy Growth's management.
"We view this as a marquee acquisition of the most recognized technology company in the industry," said Bruce Linton, Chairman & Co-CEO, Canopy Growth. "This Company is well positioned for the next wave of federally-regulated products in Canada beyond dried flower and edible oils. By combining Canopy's existing designs and Canada's open environment for federally permissible R&D with Storz & Bickel's deep IP portfolio and management team, Canopy Growth is poised to lead the high-margin vaporizing category around the world."
FSD Pharma Inc., which, through its wholly-owned subsidiary, FV Pharma Inc., is a licensed producer pursuant to the Cannabis Act, announced today that it has entered into a definitive Collaboration and License Agreement (the "Agreement") with World Class Extractions Inc., a company that has developed a unique extraction process designed to produce quality, potent cannabis extracts. World Class is also in the process of completing its own previously announced reverse takeover of CBD Med Research Corp., and submitted its initial listing application to the Canadian Securities Exchange late last week.
Under the terms of the agreement and a related lease, FSD Pharma will provide World Class with space at its 620,000 square foot facility in Cobourg, Ontario, assist it in obtaining an extraction license from Health Canada, and provide World Class with the raw cannabis needed to produce cannabis extracts. In return, World Class will provide FSD Pharma with certain royalty rights over the profits derived from the sale of those cannabis extracts.
FSD Pharma will provide World Class with up to 5,000 square feet of space at the FSD Facility. World Class will build and install, at its expense, its own manufacturing facility within the larger FSD Facility, at which it intends to extract and process CBD enriched oil and other extracts. In addition, FSD Pharma will assist World Class in preparing an application to Health Canada under the Cannabis Act to obtain the necessary license to carry out its cannabis extraction activities.
Ovation Science Inc., a skincare research and development company with the objective to be the leader in the topical and transdermal cannabis market by leveraging its patented skin delivery technology, announced the launch of a third product in the USA by its licensee.
Ovation management has over twenty years of topical drug delivery experience and has leveraged this experience and technology to develop a series of topical and transdermal cannabis products. Ovation's products have many advantages over cannabis products that are smoked or ingested including avoiding the side-effects from smoking and eliminating the first pass effect through the liver (which reduces the amount of CBD / THC available and increasing the onset time). Today, Ovation is announcing the launch of a third product into the US market.
"Lighthouse, our US licensee and Cannabiniers our cannabis branding experts, have already successfully launched two products under the brand "BASKiN" with excellent consumer feedback. We are excited that they have now launched BASKiN Sport, the first CBD product line extension that targets the health and fitness industry as a pre and post work-out enhancer," said Terry Howlett, President of Ovation. "Our goal is for our products to become the gold-standard in the topical cannabis market, adding both revenue and creating shareholder value as we expand our distribution through our licensees globally. He added, "This product launch coincides with our new listing on the CSE under the ticker symbol OVAT; so it's been an exciting couple of weeks."
Ovation's business model is to develop and license-out its topical and transdermal formulations to cannabis companies globally. Ovation products are unique from other infused product companies as it leverages its expertise in the pharmaceutical industry to develop highly effective, patent-protected products and has the results to prove it. Ovation products are used for improved wellness, pain management and even anti-aging, to name a few. Ovation earns revenues from licensing and development fees, royalties and the sale of Invisicare to its licensees. Ovation's licensees currently include Canopy Growth Corporation in Canada and Lighthouse Strategies, LLC in the USA.
