AI in Oil and Gas to See CAGR of Over 12.14% from 2018-2023

The AI in Oil and Gas Market is projected to grow at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of more than 12.14 percent in the forecast period of 2018-2023, according to a report from Industry Research. An excerpt from the report reads:
The oil and gas industry operates across a high-risk environment, where the application of AI is expected to aid in streamlining the overall production process and controlling the wastage across the endpoints. Various IoT sensors exhibit multiple functions, which are integral components of upstream and downstream activities, across the industry. From exploration activities (upstream) to leak monitoring while transportation (downstream), there are opportunities for significant application of AI, in the industry. However, the increasing safety concerns among the workforce, especially the maintenance of aging pipeline infrastructure, poses pressure on the oil and gas manufacturers, to include gas and temperature sensors in case of fire emergencies. This factor increases the demand for several data analysis processes that use predictive modeling, across the oil and gas industry. The rising adoption of smart sensing technology as a part of industrial IoT is poised to provide considerable opportunities to the oil and gas industry, in order to curb the safety issues to a substantial extent.

Fit Pay, Inc. a subsidiary of Nxt-ID, Inc.

According to the press release, confirmed pre-orders of Flip will begin shipping on February 13.

"Flip bridges the gap between cryptocurrencies and traditional payments, providing Bitcoin holders the ability to use their value for everyday transactions. We are very pleased that the first Flip users will have their devices soon."
About a year after being notoriously hacked for $530 million USD, Japanese crypto exchange Coincheck has been granted a license, according to a statement released today. To get licensed, Coincheck affirmed that it has committed to improving security.
Since the hacking incident in January 2018 that caused illegal remittances of the cryptocurrency NEM, Coincheck has suspended certain services in order to focus on enhancing governance and internal controls by developing business improvement plans and carrying them out. In addition, supported by outside experts, Coincheck has worked on enhancing technical safety, and gradually resumed the services in which the technical safety had been confirmed.
CCN reports that some Indian banks are requiring customers to sign contracts stating that they will not use cryptocurrencies as part of their terms of service agreement. The source for this is Twitter user @DesiCryptoHodlr, or "Indian CryptoGirl", who posted a photo of a bank's terms and conditions outlining the stipulation regarding crypto.
"...I hereby declare that I will not deal with any transactions related to Crypto-currency including Bitcoins. I also understand and agree that the Bank reserves all right to close my account without further intimation in case I am found to undertake such transactions."
Data from Coin ATM Radar indicates that the rate of growth for new cryptocurrency ATMs installed each day is five. Elsewhere, data from the site shows that, despite the bearish market trends seen this year, the amount of crypto ATMs has more than doubled in the last year and there are now 4165 worldwide.

How Investing in the #Cannabis Sector is Changing; ( $ETII) ( $HIPH) ( $CRON) (TSX: $TRST.TO)

Piper Jaffray (NYSE: $PJC) Initiates Coverage on ( $TLRY) and ( $CGC)


Point Roberts, WA and Delta, BC - January 11, 2019 (Investorideas.com Newswire) Investorideas.com, a leading investor news resource covering hemp and cannabis stocks releases a snapshot looking at the trend of cannabis companies uplisting in U.S. markets.
As regulations change, such as the rescheduling of CBD and Hemp in the US, it is likely we will see and more and more smaller cannabis companies work towards uplisting to the OTCQB, NYSE and NASDAQ markets, making them more transparent to investors as well as reaping the benefits of opening themselves up to a larger investor base and gaining access to more capital.
Back in February of 2018, Cronos Group Inc. (TSX: CRON.TO) (NASDAQ:CRON) began to blaze the path in cannabis stock credibility by becoming the first cannabis company to be listed on the Nasdaq Global Market, as well as uplisting from the TSX-Venture to the TSX.
In their release, Mike Gorenstein, CEO of Cronos Group said, "This up-listing to NASDAQ is a major corporate milestone and reflects the significant progress we have made in strengthening our corporate governance and expanding our global footprint. We believe this will increase long term shareholder value by improving awareness, liquidity, and appeal to institutional investors."
Since then, cannabis companies both small and large have been looking to follow in their footsteps.
EnviroTechnologies International, Inc. (OTC:ETII) in a recent news release reported that it has commenced an audit to become a fully reporting company and transition to the OTCQB. The company's subsidiary, CBD Health Co. (www.cbdhealthco.com), a company that markets and sells high quality and proprietary hemp-based, natural CBD health products, has made inroads into the hemp-based pet supplement products market and further ambitions in the CBD market.
Gaylord Karren, ETI's President commented, "We have been transparent with our financial information but we have not to date committed to a formal audit, which we determined is the next logical step in our progression as a public company. We expect to complete our audit by the end of first quarter 2019, which will then allow us to move to the QB and expand our options in the public marketplace."
CannTrust Holdings Inc. (TSX: TRST.TO) (OTC:CNTTF), one of Canada's leading, most trusted licensed producers of cannabis and the 2018 Canadian Cannabis Awards "Top Licensed Producer of the Year", made a similar announcement recently that it has applied to list its common shares on the New York Stock Exchange.
In their release Peter Aceto, CEO of CannTrust said, "CannTrust has firmly established itself as one of the top licensed producers in Canada with a global platform rooted in trust, science and innovation. A listing on the NYSE is a natural step forward in our evolution as we look to broaden our investor base, increase the Company's exposure and expand our business on an international scale."
Many companies are also looking to broaden their investor reach in the Canadian markets as American Premium Water Corporation (OTC:HIPH), a company positioned in the growing CBD beverage market announced in December that it had engaged Canadian law firm Aird & Berlis with the intention to begin the process to list on a Canadian stock exchange. The Company's goal is to be listed in Canada by the end of the first half of 2019, as well as complete its audit and become fully reporting on the US OTCQB.

In their news release, American Premium CEO and Interim Chairman Ryan Fishoff, commented "Today's announcement is the first step to expand the Company's reach into North American and the global investor market."
Fishoff, as much as he is moving in the direction of the future, knows the importance of also remembering the roots of the industry, with icons like Snoop Dog. He tweeted yesterday making note that his company's ‏LALPINA CBD brand will be the liquid star of an event hosted by Snoop Dog for retired NFL player and Fox Business News contributor, Jack Brewer.

Investorideas.com - NXT-ID Inc. (NASDAQ: NXTD)

SEBASTIAN, Florida - January 11, 2019 (Investorideas.com Newswire) Fit Pay, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of NXT-ID, Inc. (NASDAQ: NXTD), today announced that it will begin shipping initial orders of Flip™, a new contactless payment device that enables Bitcoin holders to use the value of their currency to make contactless purchases at millions of retail locations. Confirmed pre-orders of Flip will begin shipping on February 13, 2019.
"Flip bridges the gap between cryptocurrencies and traditional payments, providing Bitcoin holders the ability to use their value for everyday transactions," said Michael Orlando, COO of NXT-ID and President of Fit Pay, Inc. "We are very pleased that the first Flip users will have their devices soon."
Flip's near field communication (NFC) antenna allows it to transact payments at any retail point of sale location that accepts contactless payments. Flip stores a preloaded amount of U.S. dollars that are exchanged from the user's existing Bitcoin account. Flip includes a digital wallet that allows the user to set how much value they would like their Flip to hold and when they would like it to reload. Flip does not need to be charged. Non-fiat funds (i.e. cryptocurrency) must first be converted to U.S. Dollars before those funds are loaded onto Flip.
Consumers interested in purchasing Flip can order the device at FliptoPay.com. The retail price for Flip is $29. There are account and exchange fees associated with maintaining a Flip digital wallet. Flip is currently only available in the United States. For more information or to order Flip, visit FliptoPay.com.
