Today’s podcast overview/transcript:
Good afternoon and welcome to another episode of Investorideas.com “potcasts”, looking at cannabis news, stocks to watch as well as insights from thought leaders and experts.

In today’s podcast I look at a few of the day’s earlier announcements.

Liberty Health Sciences Inc. (CSE: LHS) (OTCQX: LHSIF), a provider of high quality cannabis, announced today that it will open its 14th Florida dispensary in Cape Coral's South Cape business district on Friday, May 10th, subject to Florida Department of Health approval. This is the first medical facility to open in Cape Coral and Liberty's second dispensary to open in Lee County.

The 3,380 square-foot facility includes innovative shopping displays that engage and educate patients, two private consultation rooms and a large waiting room where patients, physicians and community members can learn about the benefits of medical cannabis. The dispensary is also equipped to offer drive-through services for its patients.

"We anticipate strong patient demand in the Cape Coral area, which is supported by a large population of potential patients living in Southwest Florida who can take advantage of our exceptional customer service and educational resources," said Victor E. Mancebo, interim CEO of Liberty. "There are many retirees living in our service area who can benefit from our products and Cape Coral is also one of the fastest growing cities in Florida. Already patients and the city of Cape Coral are embracing our presence and we are excited to provide the community with our premium medical marijuana products."

Aurora Cannabis Inc. (NYSE: ACB) (TSX: ACB), today announced that it has scheduled its conference call to discuss the results for its third quarter ended March 31, 2019. The call will be hosted on Wednesday, May 15th, 2019 at 10:30 a.m. Eastern Time by Terry Booth, Chief Executive Officer, Glen Ibbott, Chief Financial Officer, Cam Battley, Chief Corporate Officer, and Michael Singer, Executive Chairman, followed by a question and answer period. The Company will report its financial results for the third quarter after the close of markets on Tuesday, May 14th, 2019.

Cannvas MedTech Inc. (CSE: MTEC) (OTCPK: CANVF), a leading digital cannabis education and analytics company, announced the official launch of its digital cannabis education resource for animals, Cannvas.Pet. Powered by the Cannvas.Me and Cannvas Data platforms, Cannvas.Pet explores health care through cannabis-based products to help treat a pet's ailments with no pressure to purchase or consume.

"We understand cannabis legalization in Canada marks the beginning of a long journey for researchers, medical practitioners and pet owners here and across the world to examine the merits and potential health benefits of cannabis for animals," said Shawn Moniz, Chief Executive Officer, Cannvas MedTech Inc. "Cannvas.Pet aims to break the stigma of cannabis-based pet therapy and provide unbiased education around its potential effectiveness in treating a variety of ailments through evidence-based articles, anecdotal testimonials from pet owners and oversight from a team of veterinary, health and cannabis experts."

Modeled after the successful Cannvas.Me platform, Cannvas.Pet explores the use of medical cannabis to help a variety of common ailments for which pet owners treat their animals including: pain relief, induced calm, anti-inflammation, sleep aid, appetite stimulant, end-of-life care and more. While cannabis, hemp or CBD treats, food and supplements for animals are not approved or regulated by Health Canada, the FDA has placed no restrictions on the use of cannabidiol in animals, and a great deal of anecdotal evidence indicates many pet owners are using cannabis-based treatments to alleviate their pet's symptoms and achieving positive results.

The Supreme Cannabis Company, Inc. (TSX: FIRE) (OTCQX: SPRWF) today announced that it will be providing its third quarter financial results for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2019 after markets close on May 13, 2019.

BITCOIN OR NOISE?

BITCOIN OR NOISE?

As the price of BTC seems to be headed to an accelerated bull-run Since early April this year, don’t count your chickens before they hatch. Anyone present during 2017’s record heights of $20,000 USD (yup if you’re a noob, you better catch up!) can remember BTC soaring.

Just like now, as it seems that BTC might climb up an extra 20% than what was reported last week, media has started to speculate on what may happen if you choose to invest in it right now. Mostly, they make an effort of spreading distrust among possible new buyers and the ever careful process one.


You’d think that recent event’s like Bitcoin’s 10th birthday, the arrival of crypto projects from the likes of JP Morgan and Facebook – would have encouraged media to get smarter. This week’s news shows attitudes at major publishers haven’t changed much. They still insist on pointing to the bitcoin price (because it’s trending) to evoke fear and/or greed and say “Look!” works. And that’s why the press keeps doing it.

Far from examining developments (or asking serious questions), much of the mainstream media’s coverage devolved into outright theory and speculation. Communication channels are trying to explain how BTC is suddenly rising again. There’s a fan favorite theory where they assure everyone that a mystery transaction, someone who bought at lot of it, might have triggered interest among potential and actual members of the BTC community.

Even search engines feel the love. Firefox, Google and Safari have seen the word “bitcoin” searched as much as it was back in November during the bitcoin cash civil war. So bitcoin’n exposure of the overall media creates tan effect called “fear of missing out” bitcoin and other digital tokens, provoking a rise in the prices of some of them too.

So while the truth is that BTC is volatile yet not that risky and investment, at this very moment transactions per day hit a 16-month high and price keeps climbing.

Data from Blockchain.com shows that the average blocksize is also moving in an upward direction, just like its hashrate. The 440,000 daily on-chain confirmed transactions figure was seen earlier this month, and surpassed the number of daily confirmed transactions seen in January of last year.

The increase in economic activity on the Bitcoin blockchain has notably been accompanied by the growth of its second-layer scaling solution, the Lightning Network. According to 1ML data, the network already has a capacity of over 1,060 BTC ($6 million). Currently, it has 8,200 nodes, and 38,290 open channels. The Lightning Network has over time been gaining new use cases. These already include playing chess, buying from vending machines, buying art, paying for taxi rides, and more.

The 16-month high in confirmed transactions comes at a time in which many are showing interest in the cryptocurrency space, and in which the price of BTC itself has been rising as a result. According to CryptoCompare data, bitcoin is currently trading at $5,800 after rising 16.5% in the last 30 days.

So in the end, as you see, media might not be totally wrong when they imply that these all-time highs since December 2017 are a product of interest rising. Which would mean that the suspicious increase in “mass” transactions is a true detonator.

Take whatever media says with a grain of salt. Do make your own research and follow your gut. That’s all it takes.

#CryptoCorner:  Fidelity to Launch #Crypto Trading in Coming Weeks, CFTC Prepared to Approve Ether Futures, SIX May Issue Digital Token and #Blockchain-Powered Pepsi (NasdaqGS: $PEP) Ad Sees 28% Efficiency Boost

Stocks discussed: (NasdaqGS:PEP)

Bloomberg reports that financial services multinational Fidelity will launch a crypto trading service for institutional investors in the coming few weeks, according to “a person familiar with the matter”. Fidelity Digital Assets, which was launched in October 2018, currently offers a Bitcoin (BTC) custody service. The Bloomberg article quotes Fidelity spokeswoman Arlene Roberts from an email:

“We currently have a select set of clients we’re supporting on our platform. We will continue to roll out our services over the coming weeks and months based on our clients’ needs, jurisdictions, and other factors. Currently, our service offering is focused on Bitcoin.”

CoinDesk reports that the U.S. Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) is prepared to approve a futures contract for Ether (ETH), so long as it meets the regulator’s requirements. The unnamed CFTC source said:

“I think we can get comfortable with an ether derivative being under our jurisdiction. We don’t do bold pronouncements, what we do is we look at applications before us.”

The source went on to explain:

“A derivatives exchange comes to us and says ‘we want to launch this particular product.’ … If they came to us with a particular derivative that met our requirements, I think that there’s a good chance that it would be [allowed to be] self-certified by us.”

Switzerland’s top stock exchange, SIX, may issue its own digital token, according to an interview with the exchange’s executive Thomas Zeeb on Finews published today. Zeeb said:

This year, we’ll deliver a pilot in late summer and first services will be live in early 2020. We will start with so called native digital applications – launching new tokens and an initial digital offering (IDO) service.

Zeeb went on to explain why currently SIX Digital Exchange (SDX) has no plans to trade cryptocurrencies:

The fatal flaw in trading cryptocurrency is not knowing who’s behind the trades and where the coins are coming from – by design. We have responsibilities in terms of ensuring that appropriate anti-money laundering and transaction monitoring processes, as is the case today in the traditional world, are in place. The way bitcoin is currently set up and traded, it wouldn’t meet the criteria for SDX.

Media agency Mindshare ran a blockchain-driven test ad campaign for Pepsi (NasdaqGS:PEP), which saw a 28 percent increase in cost efficiency, according to a press release today. The test was part of Project Proton, which explores solutions using smart contracts on the Zilliqua blockchain. Farida Shakhshir, Director of Consumer Engagement for PepsiCo AMENA said:

“We are happy to be partnering with Mindshare to test the application and value add of blockchain in media. It is key that we stay abreast of new technologies, and continue to advance transparency, viewability, brand safety and buying efficiency. The results are encouraging, and we plan to run a few more campaigns under different conditions to verify more hypotheses and measure overall impact.”
