Germany's second-largest stock exchange, Boerse Stuttgart, is teaming up with solarisBank to launch a zero-fee crypto trading platform in 2019. The platform will be open to private and institutional investors and will initially offer established coins like Bitcoin (BTC) and Ether (ETH) for trading. Boerse CEO Alexander Höptner said:
"With its combination of technology and banking expertise, solarisBank is a great partner for us to offer central services along the value chain for digital assets. solarisBank's Blockchain Factory supports us in taking trading in crypto currencies and tokens to the next level and in setting new standards in transparency and reliability."
French MPs recommend investing €500 million EUR in blockchain over the next three years to make France a "blockchain nation" according to local outlet Les Echos. Two MPs, Jean-Michel Mis and Laure de La Raudière, authored a pro-crypto report yesterday, arguing for France to capitalize on the new technology before they fall behind other countries such as China and the U.S.
Electronics giant Samsung (KSE:005930) plans to integrate a cryptocurrency system for its Galaxy S10, according to Samsung community SamMobile. The system will be divided into two parts: "A cold wallet for saving cryptocurrency, public and private keys as well as signing private keys for cryptocurrency transactions and a crypto wallet for transfers, viewing account information and transaction history."
The Economic Times reports that IBM (NYSE:IBM) is gearing up to provide blockchain solutions to India's Telecommunications space. Sriram Raghavan, CTO of IBM India and South Asia, said the tech giant could debut the service as early as next year.
"We have completed proof of concepts and pilots with all the major telecom providers and with TRAI [Telecom Regulatory Authority of India] in this space. We anticipate going into the New Year, we'll start to see blockchain solutions getting rolled out."
A new report from the IBM Institute for Business Value has found that 62 percent of automotive executives expect blockchain to be a disruptive force in the industry in the next three years. Titled "Daring to be First: How auto pioneers are taking the plunge into blockchain", the report finds that 54 percent of auto pioneers will implement their first commercial blockchain network at scale within the next three years.

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.
This month's podcast is brought to you by our exclusive content partner, CLS Holdings USA, Inc. (OTCQB: CLSH), a diversified cannabis company operating as Cannabis Life Sciences and an integrated cannabis producer and retailer in Nevada through its Oasis Cannabis subsidiaries with plans to expand into other States.
Today we are looking at announcements from Aurora Cannabis Inc. (NYSE: ACB) (TSX: ACB), Village Farms International, Inc. (TSX:VFF) (OTCQX:VFFIF), CROP INFRASTRUCTURE CORP. (CSE: CROP) (OTC: CRXPF), Canopy Growth Corporation (TSX: WEED(NYSE: CGC), Valens GroWorks Corp. (CSE: VGW) (OTC: MYMSF) and Cannvas MedTech Inc. (CSE: MTEC).
Aurora Cannabis Inc. announced today that it has entered into an agreement to invest $10 million by way of brokered private placement in High Tide Inc., a privately held, Alberta-based, retail-focused cannabis and lifestyle accessories company. In total, Aurora will receive 10,000 senior unsecured convertible debentures issued by High Tide priced at $1,000 per debenture, bearing an interest rate of 8.5% per annum, and convertible in aggregate to 13,333,333 common shares of High Tide at $0.75 per share (the "Transaction").
High Tide is developing an expanding network across Canada of cannabis and cannabis accessory retail stores, as well as manufacturing and distributing branded cannabis accessories which positions it exceptionally well to capitalize on the Canadian adult-use cannabis industry. Through its two wholesale businesses, Famous Brandz and RGR Canada, and the 19 existing Smoker's Corner retail locations, High Tide serves more than 170,000 retail customers per year. Through Canna Cabana and eventually KushBar, High Tide currently operates 4 retail stores in Alberta, with additional leases secured with the intention of opening new locations across Canada in the near future.
Village Farms International, Inc. today announced that, following yesterday's passage by U.S. Congress of the 2018 Farm Bill, it will aggressively pursue opportunities to become a vertically integrated leader in the legal hemp industry, including significant opportunities in the cannabidiol (CBD) market.  The 2018 Farm Bill is still to be signed into law by President Trump, which is expected to occur next week.
The 2018 Farm Bill includes the Hemp Farming Act 2018 which federally legalizes hemp and hemp products in the U.S., including extracts, derivatives and cannabinoids, and permanently removes hemp from the U.S. federal Controlled Substances Act (CSA).  CBD has become increasingly popular among consumers seeking to improve their general health and wellness.  According to Brightfield Group, with the full federal legalization of hemp-derived CBD in the U.S., the global hemp CBD market is estimated to grow nearly 40-fold in the next four years to US$22 billion in 2021, driven to a large degree by what it believes could be "the next major nutraceutical phenomenon".
"The full and unambiguous legalization of hemp, and especially hemp-derived CBD products, creates a tremendous global opportunity and Village Farms intends to be a leader in this nascent industry," said Michael DeGiglio, Chief Executive Officer, Village Farms.  "With one of the largest existing greenhouse footprints in the U.S. and a 30-year proven track record as a large-scale, low-cost grower of high-value crops, Village Farms has a formidable platform to capitalize on the hemp and CBD opportunity.  In anticipation of the passage of this landmark legislation, over the last several months, we have undertaken broad and extensive foundational work to ensure Village Farms can move quickly, aggressively and profoundly."
CROP INFRASTRUCTURE CORP. announced today its large Italian CBD greenhouse facility has been upgraded and is ready for the start of the 2019 growing season.
The joint venture facility, which covers 87,120 square feet and is co-owned through XHemplar S.R.L, now has a perimeter security fence being erected as well as and a comprehensive CCTV security system that is expected to be completed imminently.
CROP and XHemplar are currently working with Italian agencies to import new and unique, high CBD genetics to populate its upgraded facility that are expected to command premium prices. Discussions are also continuing with an Italy-based pharmaceutical company to secure off-take agreements for the 2019 harvests.
In addition, CROP and XHemplar have identified six potential retail locations throughout Italy and are in negotiations to open two of the retail locations shortly. It is also planned to build a state-of-the-art extraction facility that would add significant value by allowing for in-house processing of hemp biomass.
CROP Infrastructure CEO, Michael Yorke, stated: "Italy is our bridgehead into Europe. Our Italian partners are making significant progress on multiple fronts to ensure that the European operations are running at full capacity to take full advantage of the rapidly growing demand there.
Canopy Growth Corporation announced today that it has entered into a multi-year extraction agreement with Valens GroWorks Corp., a licensed, vertically integrated provider of cannabis products and services focused on various proprietary extraction methodologies, distillation, cannabinoid isolation and purification.
Under the terms of the multi-year agreement, Valens will utilize their proprietary technology and methodologies to process the Company's whole flower and trim into high-grade cannabis resin. Canopy Growth expects the first shipment of product for extraction will occur before the end of December 2018.
Valens previously joined Canopy Growth's CraftGrow program in October 2017. CraftGrow provides craft cannabis producers with the opportunity to bring unique cannabis products to market through the Company's leading sales channels. Having recently received its cultivation licence, Valens expects to have its first branded products available via CraftGrow for the medical and recreational markets by the end of March 2019.
"Diversifying our extraction supply capabilities with Valens, a company positioning itself as a specialized extractor, increases our ability to supply a consistent, high-quality inventory of oils for products such as Softgels," commented Mark Zekulin, President & Co-CEO, Canopy Growth. "We're also excited to see Valens progress in its licensing capabilities so that it can add its products to our CraftGrow program, increasing the diversity of high-quality cannabis products available for medical and recreational customers in 2019."
Cannvas MedTech Inc., announced that its online learning platform Cannvas.Me will be featured in an upcoming installment of Canadian Health and Family.
"Presenting our Cannvas.Me platform on this popular health and wellness program is a strong opportunity to share our free and unbiased digital cannabis education resource to a wide swath of Canadians who may be curious about using cannabis as an alternative therapeutic treatment," said Shawn Moniz, Chief Executive Officer, Cannvas MedTech Inc. "Canadian Health and Family enjoys an engaged following both online and on television, reaching beyond its viewership to contribute to conversations by family physicians and general practitioners throughout Canada, and affecting advocacy groups and resource organizations such as the Chronic Pain Association of Canada. As cannabis becomes a more prevalent part of people's health care regimen, it's imperative Canadians know where to turn for accessible and reliable physician-backed cannabis information and education."
The program makes note of the independent Medical Advisory Board and Educational Advisory Panel who steer content for Cannvas.Me and pays special attention to the platform's global reach, from its founders' travels across the world to determine how best to approach cannabis education to the site's scalability across different countries as cannabis legislation around the world continues to evolve. Additionally, there is also focus on the forthcoming Cannvas.Pet platform, designed to help pet owners explore the use of medical cannabis to help treat their pet's ailments.
"A crucial aspect of cannabis legalization that has been overlooked since its October inception is access to free and unbiased education around the plant and an opportunity for Canadians to learn for themselves whether or not it can be a beneficial part of their lifestyle," said Daniel Davidzon, Director of Strategy and Education, Cannvas MedTech Inc. "We strive to elevate cannabis learning and open the public's eyes to the myriad health care benefits the plant offers, better contextualizing its place in our culture and delivering evidence-backed education from a team of certified health practitioners and educators."

Congress Passes $867 billion Farm Bill


Point Roberts, WA and Delta, BC - December 13, 2018 (Investorideas.com Newswire) Investorideas.com, a leading investor news resource covering hemp and cannabis stocks releases a snapshot looking at the growing opportunity for the CBD pet market and how companies that are positioned in the cannabis space are adding pet markets to their growing portfolios.
According to the American Pet Products Association (APPA), $69.51 billion was spent on pets in the U.S in 2017 and it's estimated that number will grow to $72.13 billion for 2018. Canadians spend $6.6 billion a year on their pets according to recent numbers.
Looking at how cannabis/CBD plays into the pet market, CTV reported, "In 2017, sales of cannabis products marketed for pets at medical and adult-use cannabis dispensaries was nearly $7 million in California, Colorado, Oregon and Washington, according to BDS Analytics. In Colorado, sales of pet products grew 49 per cent in 2017, versus growth across all product categories at 15 per cent, it said."
Canopy Animal Health, stated as the global leader in cannabinoid science for pets, is a a division of Canopy Health, a wholly owned subsidiary of Canopy Growth Corporation (TSX:WEED), (NYSE:CGC). In August they announced that approval had been received from the Veterinary Drug Directorate of Health Canada to research the effectiveness of cannabidiol ("CBD") to treat anxiety in certain animals.
Continued: The research will be conducted by Canopy Animal Health, a division of Canopy Health which focuses on developing cannabis-based healthcare products for companion animals. The approval comes in the form of a No Objection Letter for the use of a proprietary CBD enriched oil formulation, previously administered in preclinical dosing and safety studies, as a potential therapy for anxiety. The CBD formulation will be produced by Canopy Growth in its GMP-certified production facility in Smiths Falls, Ontario.
From the release: "Our passion to create safe and effective products for animals is driven by the love we share for our pets," commented Marc Wayne, Managing Director, Canopy Health
Innovations. "The use of natural-occurring cannabinoids as a therapy for companion animals is a logical new forefront of medical discovery and the research we are working on at CAH is world leading. These trial approvals mark a significant milestone on the journey of making cannabis-based drugs accepted and recommended by veterinarians."
Trying to set their own paw print in the sector, EnviroTechnologies International, Inc. (OTC: ETII) , just reported that its subsidiary, CBD Health Co., (www.cbdhealthco.com), a company that markets and sells high quality and proprietary hemp-based, natural CBD health products, is progressing in its hemp-based pet supplement products development.
From the news: "Much has been written lately about CBD products and the numerous applications for humans and pets, which has raised consciousness of CBD's therapeutic value. Our CBD products are all cannabidiol-based, which means they are not psychoactive and are safe for pets," said Joe De Leon, CBD's President. "When your pet gets sick, you want the best treatment available and the products we are developing will offer better, more effective and safer medicinal options for pets than traditional pet health products."
Continued: Current research shows that there are several common CBD benefits for dogs, which are, 1) powerful painkiller (the ECS is involved in managing pain and CBD's pain killing properties are well documented); 2) effective anticonvulsant (CBD helps control seizures, tremors, tics and spasms); 3) natural anti-inflammatory; 4) anxiety and stress reducer (anxiety in dogs often results in barking, urination and defecation, chewing and aggression); 5) active antiemetic (reduces nausea and vomiting); and homeostasis promoter (proper functioning of the body).
"Pet owners are committed to their pet's health and well-being and are willing to spend money on pet health products, which make this a multi-billion dollar market, worldwide," said Karren. "We hope to introduce our CBD pet products in 2019 as we believe that our CBD pet products will be superior to those currently offered in this huge industry and will create another profitable channel for our CBD products."
Earlier this year, CannTrust Holdings Inc. (TSX: TRST), one of Canada's leading licensed producers of medical cannabis, announced it entered into a letter of intent with privately-owned company, Grey Wolf Animal Health Inc., to develop groundbreaking cannabis products to support the well-being of pets.
From the news: There are approximately 16 million cats and dogs in Canada with almost two-thirds of Canadian households owning a pet. Canadian pet owners are increasingly treating pets as an extension of their family. With over 350 million pets globally, there is a sizeable market opportunity for cannabis products.
Isodiol International Inc. (CSE: ISOL) (OTC: ISOLFannounced in October it will be launching Pawceuticals, a CBD-based product line that naturally aids in restoring a pet's health and improving overall wellness.
While these companies are not solely focused on the pet market, it is another revenue door to open in the CBD market. Investors and industry leaders see further substantial growth for the sector as the $867 billion Farm Bill

#Tech News: Gopher Protocol (OTCQB: $GOPH) Completes Its MESH Gateway Design Review

Now Assembling PCB for Extensive Hardware Testing

Investorideas Featured Company: Gopher Protocol, Inc. (OTC:GOPH)


SAN DIEGO, CA - December 13, 2018 (Investorideas.com Newswire) Gopher Protocol Inc. (OTCQB: GOPH) ("Gopher"), a company specializing in the development of Internet of Things (IoT) and Artificial Intelligence enabled mobile technologies, including a global mesh network technology platform for both mobile and fixed solutions, announced today it has completed the alpha version of its MESH Gateway design and conducted a successful design review. The MESH Gateway is the complementary unit to Gopher's MESH Node unit; together both units form the complete hardware platform for Gopher's MESH Network.
In this design review, crucial technical aspects were inspected and analyzed to ensure best performance. Among the aspects inspected were: power consumption according to operation modes; RF performance; Wi-Fi/BLE (Blue Tooth Low Energy); antenna gain and more. Gopher will now focus its efforts on building the hardware platform for testing/debugging. As with Gopher's MESH Node unit, the Gateway will be going through an extensive set of hardware and FW (firmware) tests in order to ensure efficient and accurate performance. After completing the Gateway testing phase, Gopher will start field testing of the complete system (Gateway and Nodes).
"We are glad to announce that we are on schedule with our MESH system design and development," provided Dr. Danny Rittman, Gopher's Chief Technology Officer. "We successfully completed a design review of our Gateway unit and also its PCB layout design. We reviewed important technical topics of the Gateway, to ensure highest efficiency and performance. Besides the aspects mentioned above, we examined factors like power consumption, operating range, battery life, operating frequency, data rate, and heating since they play crucial role of our Gateway system. Currently we are assembling the Gateway's hardware and within a few weeks will start extensive tests to ensure consistent high performance throughout the architecture. After the testing/debugging phase, we will pursue a complete system functionality testing, which we have all been waiting for. In this next phase we will perform a comprehensive field testing of the complete system, Gateways, nodes, and its supporting software," stated Dr. Rittman.
