#CBD #Stock News: SinglePoint (OTCQB: $SING) Provides Update on 1606 Hemp Sales Initiatives and Brand Growth - Launches First Countertop Display; @_Singlepoint_


Phoenix, Arizona - May 5, 2020 (Investorideas.com Newswire) SinglePoint, Inc. (OTCQB: SING) starts Q2 with strong numbers and the focus on continued growth. After evaluating reports for Q2, SinglePoint's Hemp vertical is on track to double sales in its second quarter alongside the launch of 1606 Hemp six-pack counter top display. 1606 Hemp has seen a sales growth rate of 133% this quarter over the previous, a 233% growth in sales up to this point of the month compared from the previous month at the same point. The company has placed a focus on self-generated in store placement by hiring professional sales representatives to acquire new stores for the sales of our products over the next four weeks. 1606's goal is to grow by more than 250 retail accounts throughout multiple states.



SING: 1606 Hemp Six Pack
"No more Tobacco Cigarettes for me, what a great alternative"
- Ian, 1606 Hemp Customer
As the company continues to see success, management believes 1606 Hemp will be able to provide approximately $2,750,000 to $5,500,000 in revenue selling to just 1,000 stores. As the roll out is successful and we achieve 250 accounts in the next four weeks, 1606 Hemp will bring on additional individuals to scale up to as many as 2,500 stores as quickly as possible in order to achieve reorders from 1,000 stores. Management believes the current total addressable market is approximately 125,000 locations or more.

"I've been trying to get friends and family to make the switch to hemp for years, your product is changing a lot of hearts. Thank you"
- Al, 1606 Hemp Customer
As new accounts have been established, we have received a noticeable increase in reorders and sell-through rates at stores as customers are becoming more familiar with the brand. In the past month, we have been able to grow our social media presence to over 10,000 followers and millions of impressions. The 1606 Hemp website has also had a major lift this month seeing nearly a 40% increase in new users and 33% increase in page views across the site. Users are also spending more time on the site than in previous months, leading to more conversion and engagement for the brand.

1606 Hemp is working to become the leading recognized brand in the combustible hemp market which is the second fastest growing market in the hemp category. The big differentiator for 1606 Hemp is the ability to place a countertop display unit at retailers across the nation. While others are working to dominate the online market, we have a general belief this type of consumable product will continue to be bought in convenience stores, smoke shops and bodegas throughout the nation.

"These have really helped with my nightly routine of winding down and getting a full night's rest. Thanks so much."
- Rebecca, 1606 Hemp Customer
BDS Analytics and Arcview Market Research projects that the collective market for CBD sales in the U.S. will surpass $20 billion by 2024 while New York-based investment bank Cowen & Co, estimates that the market could pull in $15 billion by 2025. The combustible hemp market currently represents approximately 2% of the overall CBD market, but with a 250% growth from 2017 to 2018, Brightfield Group, a Chicago-based cannabis market research firm, identifies dried and combustible hemp flowers as one of the fastest-growing segments of the CBD market. With the passage of the 2018 Farm Bill and the mainstreaming of CBD hemp, the market is growing rapidly. There is a significant need for reliable suppliers with the capacity to move products.

Watson Assistant, the AI-based solution from IBM (NYSE:IBM), is being deployed by the Indian Council of Medical Research (ICMR) to streamline queries associated with COVID-19. By implementing a Watson virtual agent, the ICMR aims to address questions “related to nature and process of data to be captured by test labs, how to record inventory of test kits and reagents, process of reporting to various Government agencies and references to the latest guidance, in addition to general questions related to the pandemic,” according to a report from the Economic Times. Balram Bhargava, Director General, ICMR, said:

“It is critical to remain focused on testing, diagnosis and treatment in order to lower the growth curve. With the number of on-field testing teams expanding across the nation as part of India’s Covid-19 measures, this collaboration with IBM will help automate responses from the field and facilitate access to accurate and updated data on Covid-19 diagnostics and reporting.”

Arlo Technologies, Inc.

Global Edge AI Software Market, Amid COVID-19 Pandemic, to Reach $665 Million by 2021

A report from Markets and Markets finds that the global Edge AI Software market is expected to grow from $470 million in 2019 to $665 million by 2021 with a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 19 percent. An excerpt from the report description outlines the market’s video surveillance segment, and the effect of the COVID-19 pandemic on its growth:

The use of video surveillance has been extended from operations rooms to mobile devices; COVID-19 has [expedited] the use of video surveillance use cases. Telehealth in the healthcare sector has become a new norm, as health organizations around the world, such as [the] WHO [and the] CDC have presented guidelines for its use. Many healthcare organizations are utilizing telehealth to keep their workers safe and treat patients. Private doctors and healthcare institutions are providing online consulting amidst country lockdowns.
Governments across the globe are making use of advanced video surveillance techniques such as drones, CCTV cameras to manage social distancing, monitor quarantined people, and track the spread of the virus. China, Russia, and South Korea are making use of video analytics to monitor its citizens closely and potentially protect them from the virus. Once the lockdown eases, many more industries are expected to see higher adoption of video analytics tools, making the video surveillance market to grow at a higher rate than earlier expected.

#CryptoCorner: MoneyGram (NasdaqGS: $MGI) Reports “Quiet Quarter” with Ripple, Coinbase Blog Post Argues #Bitcoin>Gold



#CryptoCorner:  MoneyGram (NasdaqGS: $MGI) Reports “Quiet Quarter” with Ripple, Coinbase Blog Post Argues #Bitcoin>Gold

Point Roberts, WA, Delta BC May 4, 2020 -  Investorideas.com, a leader in crypto and blockchain investing news brings you today’s edition of the Crypto Corner podcast and commentary on what’s driving the cryptocurrency market .

Listen to today’s Crypto Corner Podcast:  


Stocks discussed: (NasdaqGS:MGI)

Bitcoin (BTC) is close to where we left it on the last episode of Crypto Corner with a trading price at present of $8,850, according to data from CoinMarketCap. This is not to say, however, that it simply plateaued over the weekend. Bitcoin climbed slowly over Friday and Saturday, and wound up spending much of Sunday trading above $9,000. Then it took a slight tumble, getting as low as about $8,650 this morning, but now appears to be on the ascent again. The Bitcoin halving, which is widely expected to spark a rally in the crypto market, is just eight days away.

Cross-border payments firm MoneyGram (NasdaqGS:MGI) had a “quiet quarter” with Ripple, according to Cointelegraph. MoneyGram announced a strategic partnership with Ripple in June 2019, wherein the latter would act as a “key partner for cross-border payment and foreign exchange settlement using digital assets.” MoneyGram CEO Alexander Holmes said:

“I would say it was a little bit of a relatively quiet quarter, in the sense of really pushing anything particularly new into the market or expanding the service.”
Despite this, Holmes affirmed:

“But, yes, it's been a good partnership, and definitely pleased with what we've been doing.”

A recent blog post from crypto exchange giant Coinbase argues that Bitcoin holds a distinct market advantage over gold. Specifically, the piece targets gold’s “fragile physical supply chains,” and highlights Bitcoin’s resilience during the recent market crises associated with COVID-19, and its “technical advantage” in transporting, depositing, or withdrawing to exchange globally. An excerpt reads:

“…as gold refineries, miners, and supply chains have been disrupted, Bitcoin’s core protocol continues to function as designed. Miners continue to mint 12.5 new Bitcoins every ten minutes on average, verifying Bitcoin’s network while edging towards its 21 million limit. In May 2020, after its third programmatic supply “Halving”, Bitcoin will be approximately as scarce as gold while also being teleportable.”

Crypto exchanges in India have petitioned the country’s central bank, the Reserve Bank of India (RBI), for greater clarity on their status as lenders and categorization for taxation, according to a report from local outlet the Economic Times. This follows a Supreme Court ruling in the country that reversed the central bank’s ban on banks and financial institutions providing service to crypto exchanges.
