Green Market Going Into Weekend, SEC Commissioner Says Bitcoin ETF Will "Eventually" Be Approved, Credit Suisse and Banco Best Execute End-to-End Fund Transaction on Blockchain and Bithumb Launches OTC Platform ORTUS

Stocks discussed: (NYSE:CS)

As we prepare to enter another weekend the crypto market has turned green as coins show an impressive recovery. CoinMarketCap indicates that total capitalization is sitting at $116 billion at press time, up about $5 billion since yesterday. The top three coins listed by market cap remain Bitcoin (BTC), XRP and Ether (ETH) which have grown 2.7 percent, 3.3 percent and 6.7 percent in the last 24 hours, respectively. Surprisingly they are trailed by Litecoin (LTC) which has posted an astonishing 18 percent growth over the last day.
In an interview with Roll Call, SEC Commissioner Robert J. Jackson Jr. expressed confidence that a bitcoin exchange traded fund (ETF) would be given the green light by agency at some point.
"Eventually, do I think someone will satisfy the standards that we've laid out there? I hope so, yes, and I think so."
Jackson affirmed that proposals have gotten better at mitigating risks to investors, but referring to the SEC's deliberation and rejection of the Winklevoss brothers' bitcoin ETF in July, Jackson admitted that it wasn't a hard choice as the proposal was too risky for investors.
"I'm happy to say market participants have begun to come in with ideas. Whether or not we're going to find one that really protects investors I don't know, but I do know that that case wasn't especially close."
According to a press release yesterday, investment bank Credit Suisse (NYSE:CS) and Portugal's Banco Best have successfully completed a live end-to-end fund transaction using blockchain-based decentralized platform FundsDLT. The piece states that the FundsDLT transaction was "more efficient, scalable, and timely in processing" than previous models of cross-border transactions. Carlos Almeida, Director of Investments, Banco Best commented:
"This proof of concept is a great achievement and reinforces Banco Best's commitment to be ahead of the curve. We want to be involved in blockchain technology to work together with all stakeholders in order to adapt and seize new opportunities in our business model, with the ambition to improve the customer experience and to promote financial inclusion."
South Korea's Bithumb, one of the country's largest crypto exchanges, has officially launched ORTUS, the company's global over-the-counter (OTC) platform. The press release lists the following services available to clients from ORTUS once they have received approval:
  • Monitored fund transfers from insured, custodian wallet and a US-based bank account
  • Competitive pricing from the world's largest OTC desks and liquidity providers.
  • Responsive, attentive support from a global team of Business Development Managers (BDM), from onboarding to trade execution and settlement
  • Global offices in Asia, Europe, America and Australia
  • Support from BDMs whose backgrounds range from legal, asset management, investment banking, FX and OTC trading desks

Investorideas.com - Branding Becomes Key as #CBD is Expected to Overtake the #Cannabis Market (NASDAQ: $TLRY) (CSE: $GGB.C) (OTCQB: $GGBXF) (TSXV: $FIRE.V) (OTCQX: $SPRWF) (TSXV: $KHRN.V) (OTCQB: $KHRNF)

Investorideas.com - Branding Becomes Key as #CBD is Expected to Overtake the #Cannabis Market (NASDAQ: $TLRY) (CSE: $GGB.C) (OTCQB: $GGBXF) (TSXV: $FIRE.V) (OTCQX: $SPRWF) (TSXV: $KHRN.V) (OTCQB: $KHRNF)



Branding Becomes Key as #CBD is Expected to Overtake the #Cannabis Market (NASDAQ: $TLRY) (CSE: $GGB.C) (OTCQB: $GGBXF) (TSXV: $FIRE.V) (OTCQX: $SPRWF) (TSXV: $KHRN.V) (OTCQB: $KHRNF)


Point Roberts, WA and Delta, BC - February 8, 2019 (Investorideas.com Newswire) Investorideas.com, a leading investor news resource covering hemp and cannabis stocks releases a snapshot reporting on the CBD market As it grows, branding becomes essential to companies hoping to stand out.
According to Brightfield Group analysts, the CBD market is expected to hit $22 billion by 2022, overtaking the cannabis market with $20 billion by 2020. This is good news for most companies in the sector, but it also adds to market saturation, which means brand awareness may be the only way to stay ahead of the pack.
Tilray, Inc. (NASDAQ: TLRYannounced in January that they have signed a long-term revenue-sharing agreement with Authentic Brands Group to market and distribute a portfolio of consumer cannabis products within ABG's brand portfolio.
The parties will leverage ABG's portfolio of brands to develop, market and distribute consumer cannabis products around the world, as and where legal, with an immediate focus on opportunities, including CBD, in Canada and the US, subject to applicable and brand appropriate regulations.
Daniel W. Dienst, ABG Executive Vice Chairman said, "Tilray's unyielding focus on science, product quality, operational excellence and innovation has allowed them to quickly emerge as a leader in the cannabis industry. We see the extraordinary potential for cannabis in the fast-growing health and wellness category - particularly for CBD products in the United States and around the world - and are excited about this long-term partnership."
GGB Beauty LLC, a subsidiary of Green Growth Brands Inc. (CSE:GGB) (OTCQB:GGBXFannounced yesterday that it will also be working with Authentic Brands Group and the Greg Norman brand. The Agreement is to develop a line of CBD infused personal care products designed for active adult men and women. As part of this arrangement, the Company will be working with Tilray Inc. as the preferred supplier of the CBD ingredients to be used in these products.
This is the latest in a series of new developments related to GGB's pipeline of value-creating initiatives and strategic partnerships, including its recent distribution agreement with DSW Inc. Through its subsidiary GGB Beauty, GGB is well-positioned to maximize opportunities in the emerging CBD market following the recently adopted 2018 US Farm Bill.
Though not focused solely on CBD, The Supreme Cannabis Company, Inc. (TSXV: FIRE.V) (OTCQX: SPRWF) has made their brand through their wholly-owned subsidiary, 7ACRES.
In September 2018, 7ACRES entered into a supply agreement to provide dried cannabis to Tilray Canada Ltd., a subsidiary of Tilray Inc. (NASDAQ: TLRY), estimated to be in excess of C$2 million.
7ACRES was recognized as the 'Brand of the Year' at the 2018 Canadian Cannabis Awards presented by Lift & Co. The Canadian Cannabis Awards celebrates Canadian cannabis, distinguishing the people, companies, and products that make it great. 7ACRES was selected by a panel of industry professionals across a variety of sectors in the cannabis space. The award recognizes the enormous effort behind creating a brand, strategy, culture, image, and impact that resonates in the public consciousness.
"We are extremely honored to have been recognized as Brand of the Year by the Canadian Cannabis Awards. The Team at 7ACRES works incredibly hard and are very proud of the products and the culture we have cultivated since day one," said John Fowler, President & Founder of Supreme Cannabis. "Since our founding, our organization has been dedicated to ensuring the highest quality product and innovation, developing an industry-leading team, and incredible corporate culture."
With so much focus on the US and Canada, we can sometimes forget that cannabis is a global industry, a fact Khiron Life Sciences Corp. (TSXV: KHRN.V), (OTCQB: KHRNF) isn't ignoring. Khiron and Dixie Brands Inc. recently signed a binding letter of intent to establish a 50/50 joint venture to introduce a full line of cannabis-infused products to the Latin American market. Dixie will also manufacture and distribute Khiron's Kuida® brand of CBD-based cosmeceuticals in the United States, targeting the growing Hispanic population, estimated at almost 60 million.
By combining Dixie's market-ready portfolio of cannabis-infused products with Khiron's established footprint throughout Latin America, a 620 million person market, the companies aim to capture first-mover advantage and establish leadership in one of the world's fastest-growing cannabis markets. The agreement also creates a framework for the development of new products and brands tailored to Latin America, allowing Dixie and Khiron to take full advantage of opportunities resulting from cannabis legalization throughout the region.
Brand awareness will become essential for first market movers over the coming months as CBD continues to gain traction. By this time next year, companies like Green Growth Brands or Tilray could aim to have their brands become as familiar to consumers as Coca-Cola or Budweiser.

Investorideas.com - First Quarter Shows Strong Future Ahead in the #Cannabis Sector; (TSX: $ACB.TO) (NYSE: $ACB) (OTC: $DVLP) (CSE: $PLTH.C) (OTC: $PLNHF) (TSX: $APHA.TO) (NYSE: $APHA)

Investorideas.com - First Quarter Shows Strong Future Ahead in the #Cannabis Sector; (TSX: $ACB.TO) (NYSE: $ACB) (OTC: $DVLP) (CSE: $PLTH.C) (OTC: $PLNHF) (TSX: $APHA.TO) (NYSE: $APHA)



First Quarter Shows Strong Future Ahead in the #Cannabis Sector; (TSX: $ACB.TO) (NYSE: $ACB) (OTC: $DVLP) (CSE: $PLTH.C) (OTC: $PLNHF) (TSX: $APHA.TO) (NYSE: $APHA)


Point Roberts, WA and Delta, BC - February 8, 2019 (Investorideas.com Newswire) Investorideas.com, a leading investor news resource covering hemp and cannabis stocks releases a snapshot looking at the rapid expansion plans coming to the market after strong Q1 Financials.
Q1 2019 is turning out to be quite the boon for many cannabis companies and most are wasting little time in taking advantage of this added cash flow and planning for future expansion of their respective companies.
Aurora Cannabis Inc. (TSX: ACB.TO) (NYSE: ACB) recently provided an expected revenue range for the second quarter of the Company's Fiscal 2019; the period ended December 31, 2018, with the full results published on Monday, February 11, 2019 pre-market, followed by a conference call later that day.
Based on preliminary results, the Company anticipates revenues for Q2 2019 of between $50 million and $55 million, compared to $11.7 million for the same quarter in the prior year, and compared to $29.7 million for the previous quarter ended September 30, 2018 ("Q1 2019"). The results reflect an anticipated revenue growth rate in excess of 327% compared to Q2 2018 and in excess of 68% compared to Q1 2019.
Following the release of these results, Aurora quickly announced it has entered into a letter of intent to acquire all the issued and outstanding shares of privately held Whistler Medical Marijuana Corporation, in an all-share transaction valued at up to approximately $175 million.
Golden Developing Solutions, Inc. (OTC: DVLP), an emerging leader in the Cannabis, Hemp, and CBD marketplace, announced similar accelerating revenue growth for its "Where's Weed" division, including quarterly year over year sales growth of 149% and total Q4 revenues in excess of $300K.
DVLP CEO, Stavros Triant commented, "Frankly, our Where's Weed segment has out-performed, both in terms of financial performance and in terms of network effects. One major consequence of this latter impact is that a large and increasing number of our platform dispensaries have indicated that they would be excited by a vertical integration on our side, such that DVLP represents a one-stop-shop: marketing dispensaries, locating customers and supplying the product. We ran the math and it makes sublime sense. With the cash flow coming from that business, we can seamlessly add a powerful new segment in stride and everybody wins."
Management states that the Company plans to market both 99% pure CBD distillate and full-spectrum CBD products and to target major wholesale manufacturers and dispensaries.
Planet 13 Holdings Inc. (CSE: PLTH) (OTCQB: PLNHF), a leading vertically-integrated Nevada cannabis company, announced increased sales in January, having served an average of 1,550 customers per day in January compared to an average of 1,430 per day in December, an 8.4% increase month over month.
Bob Groesbeck, Co-CEO of Planet 13 said, "Our Medizin dispensary grew from serving an average of less than 200 people per day, to over 800 people per day over a period of two years. The Superstore has been open for three months and we are very pleased with the steady growth in customer traffic and average ticket. We expect to continue growing monthly sales as we gain traction with visitors to Las Vegas, optimize our marketing programs and perfect the customer experience. Over the rest of the year we will also be taking action to build-out some of the remaining 112,000 square feet available to us at the Superstore location, starting with a coffee shop and consumer-facing edibles and concentrates production lines."
Aphria Inc. (TSX:APHA.TO) (NYSE:APHA) also reported its results for the second quarter ended November 30, 2018.
"In our second quarter, Aphria continued strengthening its position as a premier supplier of medical and adult-use cannabis to the Canadian market, building long-term competitive advantage and developing key global opportunities," said Mr. Neufeld.
He continued, "A top priority for Aphria is expanding production and automation to secure our long-term cost and scale advantages. The Part IV and V expansions of Aphria One are now complete and awaiting Health Canada approval, while an application for a cultivation license at Aphria Diamond has been submitted and is awaiting pre-cultivation inspection. Based on this, we now expect to generate first sales from these new facilities later in the calendar year."
These strong early financials for 2019 having given the cannabis sector an added boost as each company expands to gain a stronger and larger footprint in the market. Where's weed going? The financial answer seems to be: higher and higher.

Today's podcast overview/transcript:
Good afternoon and welcome to another Investorideas.com "potcast", looking at cannabis news, stocks to watch as well as insights from thought leaders and experts.
Today we are looking at announcements from FSD Pharma Inc. (CSE: HUGE) (OTCQB: FSDDF), Canopy Growth Corporation (TSX: WEED) (NYSE: CGC), Lift & Co. Corp. (TSXV: LIFT), TrackLoop Analytics Corp. (CSE: TOOL) (OTCQB: TLOOF) and The Supreme Cannabis Company, Inc. (TSX-V: FIRE) (OTCQX: SPRWF).
FSD Pharma Inc., announced today that it has completed a strategic investment of $1.5 million in Pharmastrip Corp. and signed a definitive collaboration and profit sharing agreement with the company. Under the terms of the agreement, FSD will install Pharmastrip proprietary equipment at its facility in Cobourg, Ontario. FSD will use the equipment to manufacture organic medical cannabis infused oral thin film strips. Pharmastrip will grant FSD an exclusive, perpetual license to manufacture and sell the oral thin film strips in Canada.
Zeeshan Saeed, Founder and President of FSD, commented, "FSD made this strategic investment because of the potential we see in alternative delivery methods for cannabis, such as Pharmastrip's oral thin strips. We expect the demand for alternative delivery methods for both THC and CBD to increase as the market continues to develop. We are excited to install Pharmastrip's proprietary equipment under this collaboration agreement at our Cobourg plant and look forward to beginning production once the necessary license has been granted."
Canopy Growth Corporation announced that it intends to increase its total investment in Canopy Rivers Inc. (TSXV: RIV) by $30 million (CDN). The investment will be made through a private placement of subordinated voting shares in the capital of Canopy Rivers concurrent with Canopy Rivers bought deal offering of Subordinate Voting Shares for gross proceeds of approximately $55 million. This investment is being co-led by CIBC Capital Markets and Eight Capital and is expected to close on or about February 27, 2019.
"The advantage of a strengthened Canopy Rivers/Canopy Growth relationship is that it accelerates and derisks execution for invested companies," said Bruce Linton, Founder and Co-CEO, Canopy Growth. "The strength of the Canopy Rivers team, coupled with their selective approach to business development and execution of strategic investments, creates value for shareholders and for Canopy Growth."
"By increasing Canopy Growth's investment in Canopy Rivers, we are demonstrating our interest in growing great companies, developing selective opportunities and delivering Canopy's shareholders more growth," added Linton.
Lift & Co. Corp. announced today that it has received a multi-year approval from the Alcohol and Gaming Commission of Ontario ("AGCO") Board for its new CannSell retail certification program, the only approved cannabis retail training program in the Province of Ontario. Pursuant to the Cannabis License Act and Ontario Regulation 468/18, all Ontario cannabis retail employees, holders of retail store authorizations and holders of cannabis retail manager licences, must be CannSell certified prior to legally working in the Province's cannabis retail stores.
CannSell (cannsell.ca, cannsell.ca/fr) launches on February 25, 2019 as a four-hour training program, allowing Ontario retailers plenty of time to have their staff certified ahead of the anticipated opening of cannabis retail locations in the Province on April 1, 2019.
CannSell was developed in partnership with MADD Canada, the country's leading voice on the prevention of impaired driving. Ontario retailers, licence holders and prospective employees interested in gaining employment in Canada's fast-growing cannabis industry are encouraged to visit cannsell.ca starting today to learn more about the certification.
"CannSell is the logical next step for us after already setting the retail education standard in several other Canadian provinces. We commend the AGCO for recognizing our unwavering commitment to acting as the cannabis information authority in Canada," said Matei Olaru, CEO of Lift & Co. "With Ontario representing close to 40 per cent of the Canadian population, Lift & Co. will now be forever shaping the future of the cannabis industry in Canada."
TrackLoop Analytics Corp. announced that it is signing a multi-year distribution agreement with Volta Air Technology and Thermobile, a Southern California based delivery vehicle retrofitter, focusing on refrigerated delivery vans for multiple use cases and industries, including Cannabis and Food. The agreement will open a strategic sales channel for the Company in California, enabling it to scale the delivery of logistics and cold chain tracking technology in a key target market. The California logistics market, alongside Europe and Canada, represents a US$6.2 billion opportunity for the Company.
TrackLoop's real-time supply chain platform monitors temperature-controlled and highly regulated food products (fresh & frozen) in real time, securely and cost effectively, providing an enterprise grade solution to both large and small organizations.
Thermobile specializes in insulated and refrigerated delivery vehicle systems for General Motors Company, Ford Motor Company and Nissan Motor Co Ltd. Volta Air Technology builds full electric & zero emission refrigeration units made for sustainable urban delivery vehicles. Through the partnership with Thermobile, Trackloop tracking technology is installed on delivery vehicles used by major processors and distirbuters within Cannabis value chain. Blackbird, an end user of the Trackloop platform, was recently acquired by TILT Holdings Inc. Blackbird supports more than 250 wholesale and retail cannabis operators in Nevada and California to transport an average of $30 million in wholesale cannabis products every 30 days.
The Supreme Cannabis Company, Inc. announced that the Company's wholly owned subsidiary, 7ACRES, has entered into a supply agreement with the New Brunswick Liquor Corporation to supply recreational cannabis to its retail stores and has been registered as a supplier in the province of Saskatchewan.
Saskatchewan and New Brunswick become 7ACRES' seventh and eighth provincial partners alongside British Columbia, Alberta, Manitoba, Ontario, Nova Scotia and PEI.
"We're excited to announce that 7ACRES-branded products will be available for adult-use in eight Canadian provinces coast-to-coast," said Navdeep Dhaliwal, CEO of Supreme Cannabis. "In a short amount of time, 7ACRES has won multiple awards and received overwhelmingly enthusiastic consumer feedback. Our Company has made it a priority to expand 7ACRES' domestic distribution so that more Canadians will be able to experience our High-End CannabisTM products."
