February 25 Crypto Corner

BTC Loses 11% in Sunday Sell Off, Accenture Teams with Mastercard, AWS and Others with Launch of Blockchain-Based Circular Supply Chain, Russia to See Crypto Regulation in March and Plans Oil-Based Crypto and Indian Supreme Court Gives 4 Week Deadline for Regulation

Stocks discussed: (NYSE:ACN) (NYSE:MA)

Over the weekend the crypto market saw a brief surge on Saturday, followed by a sudden, and even bigger drop on Sunday. According to data from CoinMarketCap, the market cap reached as high as $144 billion at its peak on Saturday, but then plummeted $16 billion down to $127 billion. The effect on individual coins was no less dramatic, with Bitcoin (BTC) reaching as high as $4200, only to drop 11 percent down to around $3800. It is believed that a high volume of future contracts could have resulted in the high sell pressure seen on Sunday.

Professional services firm Accenture (NYSE:ACN) issued a press release today detailing their launch of a blockchain-based circular supply chain in collaboration with Mastercard (NYSE:MA), Amazon Web Services and others. David Treat, a managing director and global blockchain lead at Accenture, explained:

“Our identity capabilities are already empowering millions of users around the globe to access essential services like healthcare, banking and travel. Our circular supply chain capability combines these components with blockchain and expands its application to places and things, which is allowing us to rethink global supply chains. Through effective public and private partnerships, we can place sustainability and customer empowerment at the heart of global business models and we invite more partners to join us.”

Russia will see new crypto regulation in March, according to a recent report from local outlet Rambler. The report goes on to illustrate the possibility of an oil-backed cryptocurrency. Former Energy Minister Igor Yusufov explains the potential advantages of such a crypto, in a loose translation:

“In the current situation of the oil market and the instability of payments in dollars - the logic of the development of the digital economy on a global scale suggests exactly this path of development. After the launch of the cryptocurrency platform, oil-producing countries will be able to maneuver with respect to financial and trade restrictions, which have become too many in recent years. Based on this, the project will bring the greatest benefit to OPEC + countries, including Russia, which will be able to increase oil and gas exports.”

Inc42 reports that the Supreme Court of India has ordered the Union of India to produce a regulatory policy for cryptocurrency within the next four weeks. According to the article, if authorities fail to create the regulatory policy within the timeframe, the Court will move forward with their judgment.

Global AI in Robots Market to Reach $23.92 Billion with 29.4% CAGR from 2019-2026

A recently published report from Verified Market Research finds that the global AI in Robots market is projected to reach $23.92 billion USD by 2026 with a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 29.4 percent in the forecast period 2019-2026. An excerpt from the report description reads:

Key factors such as high adoption of robots for personal use such as companionship and entertainment and support from governments worldwide to develop modern technologies are anticipated to drive the global Artificial Intelligence (AI) Robots market in the forecast period.

On the contrary, reluctance to adopt new technologies and absence of standardized regulations to prevent risks associated with networked and autonomous robots could be few of the major restraining factors in the growth of this market in the coming years.

Verified Market Research narrows down the available data using primary sources to validate the data and use it in compiling a full-fledged market research study.

#Tokenizing Commodity Assets, @tokenize_it

#Tokenizing Commodity Assets, @tokenize_it

“…wrap a gold bar into a tamper-proof case electronically tagged, and they can track the gold bar from the mine to end point – with the use case being, if you know it's a socially responsible mine, someone will be willing to pay a higher spread on that gold versus if you don't know where it comes from.”  These are words from Umar Faros, head of blockchain initiative at JPMorgan’s New York at the last Sibos conference.

It synthesizes how many up and coming businesses claim to develop, offer and manage your investments. New, versatile companies such as Tokenize-IT are trying to take the market, or as much as they can, by developing blockchain platforms to tokenize commodity assets.

Located in the country of Costa Rica, Tokenize IT is the first fully compliant platform for creating, launching and investing in tokenized assets. A compliant security token offering for verified accredited investors with both fiat and digital currency contribution options.
Investors can use the platform to store their security token investments and manage their portfolio in a single dashboard with senior cybersecurity attention. Through bank-grade compliancy standards, they ensure full KYC/AML due diligence is completed before an investor participates in their platform and meets accredited investor status.

Tokenize IT develops its own platform in Etherium, this distributed ledger technology (DLT) is being used increasingly to tokenize real-world assets such as company shares, real estate, and commodities, including gold. The end result is the production of security tokens, which ensure higher liquidity and enable investors to trade the assets more conveniently and in a more secure environment.

Read this in full at https://www.investorideas.com/news/2019/cryptocurrency/02251TokenizeIt-CommodityAssets.asp

Use cases such as the tokenization of property assets or art state that theses can now be separated into fractions, making it easier for investors and enthusiasts to own a piece of an expensive asset such as a $50 million dollar building for example, or if that were the extreme case, paintings such as The Mona Lisa by Leonardo Da Vinci. Of course, under a smaller perspective, markets could explode in a positive tokenization outburst since assets as “simple” as a car can now be split into fractions and owned by different people at the same time.

Another of the main aspects that differentiates Tokenize IT is their location, during the last two decades, the country of Costa Rica has become a haven for investors, from entrepreneurs to big global businesses such as IBM or Amazon, the government constantly widens boundaries for offshore and onshore initiatives.
Here, Tokenize IT owns the majority position of the commodities in the country with the support of the Costa Rican government, which sees cryptocurrency as a commodity not as a security.

It is still a small company that develops proprietary blockchain based software offering it to third parties seeking to hold underlying assets that may produce income or capital gains n represented by tokens based on different blockchain protocols, yet the potential is undeniable.

The steps for an investor to be a part of the Tokenize IT family can be read here: https://www.tokenizeit.cr

#Mining Stock News: #SilverCrest (TSXV: $SIL.V; NYSE: $SILV) Announces More High-Grade In-Fill & Expansion Drill Results

#Mining Stock News: #SilverCrest (TSXV: $SIL.V; NYSE: $SILV) Announces More High-Grade In-Fill & Expansion Drill Results

·        1.4 Metres at 15,839 gpt AgEq

·        5.1 Metres at 2,174 gpt AgEq

·        6.5 Metres at 1,586 gpt AgEq

Vancouver, British Columbia - February 25, 2019 (Investorideas.com Newswire) SilverCrest Metals Inc. (TSXV: SIL.V; NYSE American: SILV) ("SilverCrest" or the "Company") SilverCrest Metals Inc. (TSXV: SIL) (NYSE American: SILV) ("SilverCrest" or the "Company") is pleased to report further Phase III drill results for the Las Chispas Property (the "Property") located in Sonora, Mexico. The 19 reported in-fill and expansion drill holes in this news release were targeting mineralization in the Babicanora Vein, Babicanora Norte ("Babi Norte") Vein, the Babicanora Footwall ("Babi FW") Vein and the Babicanora Hangingwall ("Babi HW") Vein (see attached Figures). While targeting mineralization in the Babi Norte Vein, the Company has discovered a new vein named "Babi Vista", the ninth vein out of 30 veins in the district.

Read this in full and see images at https://www.investorideas.com/CO/SILV/news/2019/02251DrillResults.asp

N. Eric Fier, CPG, P.Eng, and CEO, remarked, "The Company's in-fill drill program at Babicanora continues to deliver drill intercepts with better than expected widths and grade. These results demonstrate that the two previously announced multi-kilogram per tonne shoots (shoots 43 and 51) now appear to be one continuous shoot ("Shoot 51"). Holes BA19-132 and 133 have also expanded the footprint of the high grade shoot towards the surface. Shoot 51 now has an estimated dimension of 300 metres long by 125 metres high. In-fill drilling targeting the Babicanora Vein also confirmed and expanded high-grade mineralization within the Babi FW and Babi HW veins, while expansion drilling targeting the Babi Norte Vein resulted in the Babi Vista discovery. The Company has now identified five veins averaging 150 metres apart in the Babicanora area, all of which have the potential to be accessible from the ongoing exploration decline. The Company is scheduled to intersect Shoot 51 in H2, 2019 and plans initial development of 800 metres along the strike of the high-grade mineralization in Area 51. This planned decline helps to further de-risk Area 51 with bulk sampling and provides meaningful information for the engineering studies. These new results will be part of the next resource update, which we expect to announce in March, 2019".

The most significant result for this release in is Hole BA18-133 which intersected 1.4 metres (estimated drilled width) grading 64.25 gpt gold (or "Au") and 11,020 gpt silver (or "Ag"), or 15,839 gpt silver equivalent ("AgEq", based on assumptions defined in the table below). Also noteworthy are holes BA18-132, at 5.1 metres grading 11.47 gpt Au and 1,313.8 gpt Ag, or 2,174 gpt AgEq, and BA18-131 at 6.5 metres grading 9.99 gpt Au and 836.7 gpt Ag, or 1,586 gpt AgEq. The following table summarizes the most significant drill intercepts (uncut, undiluted) for this release;

Babi FW Vein In-Fill Drill Intercepts:

Babi HW Vein In-Fill Drill Intercepts:

Babi Norte Vein Expansion Drill Intercepts:

Babi Vista Vein Drill Intercepts:

Note: all numbers are rounded. Based on a cutoff grade of 150 gpt AgEq with 0.5 metre minimum width. Babi FW Vein intercept in hole BA18-122 was noted as part of Babicanora Vein. Babi Vista Vein intercepts BAN18-14, 30, 33 and UBN18-03 were previously reported in various news releases as unknown veins.

*AgEq based on 75 (Ag):1 (Au) calculated using long-term silver and gold prices of US$18.50 per ounce silver and US$1,225 per ounce gold, with average metallurgical recoveries of 86.6% silver and 98.9% gold.

**True width is 80 to 100% of drilled width.

***UB signifies an underground drill hole.

All assays were completed by ALS Chemex in Hermosillo, Mexico, and North Vancouver, BC, Canada.

For the Babicanora Vein, Hole BA18-127 was lost downhole and BA18-129, 130, 136 to 138, 140 and 141 are below the Company's cutoff grade of 150 gpt AgEq for Las Chispas. Assay results "cutoff date" for this release was February 8, 2019. The same cutoff date for the upcoming resource estimate. Assay results for hole BA18-135 will be reported in due course as they were not received before cutoff date. For the Babi Norte Vein, holes BAN18-41, 42, 44 to 49, 52, and 55 are below the Company's cutoff grade of 150 gpt AgEq.

In-fill and expansion drill results for Babi FW Vein and Babi HW Vein show confirmation and expansion of previously announced high-grade footprints (see attached Figures and news release dated January 9, 2019). Drill results for the Babi FW Vein have increased the high-grade mineralized footprint (discrete zones) from 900 to 1,200 metres. Both Babi FW and Babi HW veins are sub-parallel to the adjacent Babicanora Vein at a distance of 3 to 30 metres. These veins are related to several discrete high-grade zones (shoots) representing intersections of cross-cutting structures similar to all other drill-tested veins in the district.

Expansion drilling on the Babi Norte Vein has increased the high-grade mineralized footprint (discrete zones) from 900 metres to 1.2 kilometres. The "Babi Vista" Vein was previously considered part of Babi Norte; however, with further drilling, Babi Vista has been identified as a separate new vein which may be the extension of the Granaditas Vein or a splay of Babi Norte Vein (see attached Figures). Babi Vista is considered the ninth discovered vein of the known 30 veins in the district.

A total of 58 in-fill and expansion holes have been completed in the Babicanora veins since the September 13, 2018 resource estimate. Since that date, 39 in-fill holes in Area 51 high-grade footprint show an estimated weighted average (true width, uncut, undiluted) of 3.5 metres grading 11.30 gpt Au and 1,093.3 gpt Ag, or 1,941 gpt AgEq. For comparison, in the September 13, 2018 resource estimate, Area 51 had an estimated weighted average true width of 2.7 metres, grading 7.13 gpt Au and 614 gpt Ag, or 1,148 gpt AgEq.

The Company continues its Phase III exploration program with 12 drills operating on site. Drills are focused on expanding mineralization and improving the resource confidence through in-fill drilling (25 to 35 metre spacing) to reclassify Inferred Resources to Measured and Indicated. The assay cutoff date for the imminent resource update was February 8, 2019. The upcoming resource update for the Las Chispas Project is being prepared by Tetra Tech Canada Inc. ("Tetra Tech"). For the upcoming resource, Tetra Tech intends to apply a minimum vein width of 0.5 metres to the veins in the Babicanora area for modelling, a decrease from a minimum width of 1.5 metres used in the September 2018 Resource Estimate. An additional 40,000 to 50,000 metres of infill and expansion drilling are planned for H1, 2019. Other ongoing site work includes the PEA study expected in early Q2, ground breaking for the Area 51 decline, an extensive metallurgical test program, testing large diameter wells for site water, and permitting for various additional work.
