Nate’s Food Mines Deep To Fight Inflation

Nate's Food Co.

McapMediaWire -- Nate’s Food Co. (OTC: NHMD ) recent acquisition of additional Bitcoin mining systems is signaling a significant score in the company’s strategy to hedge against rising prices. The food development and distribution company is increasing its Bitcoin mining operation at a time when Bitcoin is experiencing a resurgence, it seems the timing couldn’t be better. While Bitcoin may have had a rocky 2022, the cryptocurrency is finding new legs and investor confidence along with it. Widely considered a more reliable way to store value than assets such as gold, stocks, and real estate, the exponential price increases that Bitcoin has experienced – 59.8% in 2021 alone – have resulted in Bitcoin’s value dramatically outpacing inflation since its inception. As profitable as Bitcoin may be, however, the cryptocurrency – and the process of Bitcoin mining in particular – remains a relative mystery to many outside of the crypto space. Bitcoin Mining For The Uninitiated In order to understand Bitcoin mining, we need to understand the nature of Bitcoin itself. Bitcoin, like every other cryptocurrency, is built on a blockchain. With a blockchain essentially being a decentralized ledger, every member of the chain (every Bitcoin holder) holds a copy of this ledger. As a result, there's no central bank or governing authority involved in the management of the currency, with Bitcoin holders controlling every aspect of the currency themselves. Providing enhanced speed, transparency, and security (to hack a cryptocurrency, you’d need to hack almost every copy of the ledger), cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin provide a secure way to conduct financial transactions. With transactions grouped into blocks that are validated before being added to the chain, Bitcoin miners provide the validation service for the blockchain. Bitcoin currently pays 6.25 coins per block validation (that’s currently around $144,000), making mining a highly profitable enterprise as well as an effective way to increase your Bitcoin holdings. The Mining Process As with all things technological, your success as a Bitcoin miner is almost entirely dependent on the amount of computing power you have available – because, at its core, Bitcoin mining is a competition. In order to win the right to validate a block, miners have to be the first to guess the correct sequence of a lengthy string of numbers and letters known as a ‘hash’. With the hash containing 64 characters, this isn’t something that even the brightest or luckiest of us can do unaided. With Bitcoin mining computers generating countless guesses every second, the sheer amount of brute force computing power you have available plays a major factor in your success rate. In the event of a successful guess, your computer records the transactions for that particular block which is then verified by the blockchain community. With Bitcoin producing a new block every 10 minutes, that’s over $20 million USD worth of Bitcoin up for grabs every day. Nate Foods Flexes its Technological Muscle When Bitcoin first launched, mining the currency was a relatively easy enterprise to get involved in. Miners were an assorted group of people – from career miners to amateurs who simply had a gaming computer in their bedroom with a powerful enough graphics card. However, as the value of Bitcoin has soared over the years, the realm of the amateur miner has given way to the entrance of the professional mining operation. With these operations investing vast amounts of money into hugely powerful mining rigs, Bitcoin mining is now a very competitive and serious-minded arena. With Nate Foods operating a collection of Antminer S19 Pro mining machines – the most powerful and profitable ASIC mining system for Bitcoin – the company is well-positioned to compete successfully. The Fight Against Inflation & Market Volatility When it comes to Bitcoin holdings, their effectiveness as a hedge against inflation is a result of 2 inherent characteristics that the cryptocurrency possesses. First of all, Bitcoin has a limited supply. With the cryptocurrency algorithmically capped at 21 million coins, it’s a finite resource in much the same way as gold. With 19.28 million Bitcoins currently in circulation, we’re slowly but steadily reaching the limit. What’s more, with the number of new Bitcoins issued per block halving every four years, the last Bitcoin will most likely be issued more than a century from now. With a set limit on Bitcoin’s supply, its scarcity serves as an inflationary check. With its production roughly half that of gold and set to decrease even further, its value in the long term is increasingly assured. The second quality is Bitcoin’s decentralized structure, which removes it from the influence of governing bodies and their monetary policies. With any governing structure subject to external pressures – both legitimate and corrupt – that may influence their fiscal policy, no such pressures affect Bitcoin. For example, if we look at the value of Bitcoin before the Fed issued its spate of quantitative easing in 2020, it was priced at approximately $9,000 a coin. Today, it’s worth over $23,000. While Bitcoin may have had a turbulent ride over the past year or so, its ultimate scarcity and resilience to fiscal policy make it an increasingly wise investment.

Multi-Factor Authentication – Benefits, Risks, And How You Can Get The Most From It To Ensure Your Organization's Data Is Secure

BIO-key International, Inc.

By Gita Karunakaran, Benzinga Cyberattacks are on the rise everywhere today, with organizations and individual account passwords routinely targeted by hackers – especially where accounts are vulnerable due to a lack of additional layers of protection beyond the traditional password itself to help keep them secure. According to Microsoft's Digital Defense Report 2022, the volume of password-based attacks has risen to an estimated 921 attacks every second – representing a 74% increase in just one year. This is why companies in the cybersecurity space like BIO-key International Inc. ( NASDAQ: BKYI) that provide Identity and Access Management (IAM) solutions to enterprises look to Multi-factor Authentication (MFA) as a mandatory minimum standard when designing solutions to prevent unauthorized access to company systems. The increasing widespread awareness of cybersecurity risks has propelled many companies to embark on their IAM journey by implementing a strategy that includes a variety of authentication methods that meet necessary requirements in security, usability, and flexibility. What Is Multi-factor Authentication? Multi-factor Authentication (MFA) is a core component of a strong IAM strategy. It’s an authentication method that requires the user to provide two or more verification factors to gain access to an online system or account, which helps decrease the likelihood of a successful cyber attack. The main benefit of MFA is that it would enhance an organization's security by requiring users to identify themselves using more than just a username and password. Passwords continue to be the weakest link in the chain and remain vulnerable to brute force attacks or theft by third parties. Having an MFA solution is therefore able to reduce the probability of hackers gaining access to company systems and accounts. MFA may be based on a combination of two of three different types of authentication factors, including: Things you know, such as a password or PIN; Things you have in your possession, such as a token or smartphone; Things you are, such as biometrics like fingerprints, palm, face, or voice recognition. The options chosen by each organization may depend on their risk appetites and budgets – but what is certain is that the cybersecurity and MFA market is poised for appreciable growth. The global MFA market was valued at US $10.3 billion in 2020. The market is estimated to expand at an impressive CAGR of 16.08% from 2021 to 2031 and is expected to exceed $51.37 billion by the end of 2031. Some of the key players in the Multi-factor Authentication market include Broadcom Inc. (NASDAQ: AVGO), Duo Security Inc. (private), Cisco Systems Inc. (NASDAQ: CSCO), ForgeRock Inc. (NYSE: FORG) and Entrust Inc. (TYO: 7191) MFA Is Great, But What About MFA Fatigue? As MFA continues to gain prominence across the business landscape, it is seemingly becoming increasingly vulnerable to exploitation by cybercriminals. While there is no doubting the merits of MFA over mere password protection, MFA needs to be managed properly in order to avoid a phenomenon known as“MFA fatigue”. Even though having an MFA in place is a step in the right direction to stronger security, the process can become tiring and tedious on account of the multiple additional PINs, codes, and push notifications, instead of only a username and password that users needed to recall previously. This could result in MFA fatigue among users. Cybercriminals who manage to hack into passwords are able to generate repeated push notifications in what is known as a brute force attack. While some users will be diligent all the time, MFA fatigue can result in some users inadvertently approving a push notification and granting full access to the hacker. BIO-key May Have A Highly Secure And Nearly Fail-Safe Solution According to BIO-key, although most organizations have begun to implement a variety of MFA methods as part of their IAM strategy, the best outcomes can only be achieved by deploying a cohesive solution across the entire organization. Deploying disparate solutions would make the proposition unnecessarily expensive and difficult for IT teams to manage. BIO-key boasts flexible Identity and Access Management solutions that are integrated with their unique biometric authentication option – Identity-Bound Biometrics – making it easy for organizations to secure access using fingerprint, palm, and facial scanning. BIO-key’s single, unified IAM platform, PortalGuard, provides security solutions for a wide range of use cases and business initiatives, with Multi-factor Authentication, Single Sign-on, and Self-service Password Reset abilities. MFA with PortalGuard could be the most efficient and secure solution, says BIO-key – allowing organizations to consolidate and aggregate existing methods under a single, unified IAM platform, with the ability to add more powerful authentication methods like Identity-Bound Biometrics to further strengthen their cybersecurity as necessary.

BIO-key is revolutionizing authentication and cybersecurity with biometric-centric, multi-factor identity and access management (IAM) software managing millions of users.

PTOP Announces Engagement With a Crowd Funding Portal Group, and Plans To File a Form C with the SEC for Reg CF

Peer to Peer Network

McapMediaWire -- Peer To Peer Network a.k.a MobiCard Inc. (OTC: PTOP ) (“PTOP”) - It came to PTOP’s attention that the financials slipped out of “Pink Current Status” and PTOP confirmed with the OTC Markets that the company was missing an attorney letter necessary to cover the Annual financial reports ending 9-30-22 and all subsequent quarters for that year. That attorney letter was submitted to OTC Markets on 2-8-2022 at 5:30 pm Eastern Time. OTC Markets confirmed once it is submitted PTOP should be updated to “Pink Current Status” within 3-5 business days. Assuming it has been done correctly. Regulation CF, also known as Regulation Crowdfunding or Reg CF is a section of the United States Code, in particular 17 U.S.C. § 227 (2021) dealing with equity crowdfunding. This section of the law originated with Title III of the 2012 JOBS Act which went into effect on May 16, 2016. Several U.S. platforms, called funding portals, currently facilitate Reg CF investments, including www.Trucrowd.com in which PTOP has entered into a relationship with. PTOP has paid associated fees and an escrow account has been set up for the proceeds of the endeavor. Equity crowdfunding is a mechanism that enables broad groups of investors to fund startup companies and small businesses in return for equity. “This will be a GAME CHANGER for PTOP & the value of the company overall in my opinion. As of now, we rely on a direct purchase program where we sell shares directly from the company to people who identify themselves as accredited investors at a discount-to-market, that either call into our investor relations line, or are already existing shareholders. Reg CF will allow us to raise up to $ 5 million dollars though an unlimited number of unaccredited investors. It will allow us to advertise our direct purchase program of our company shares on social media, our website, our equity funding portal partners' website, and anywhere online as long as we go through our crowdfunding partners' equity portal. Trucrowd is a funding portal that will enable their investor lists to pour money into the company as well. We can set the minimum investment much lower than the standard is now. For instance, we can allow shareholders to pay as little as $500 directly to our company to buy shares, at any price we set. This will broaden our shareholder base and bring new shareholders to the company. These shares will be of course restricted for a period of time applicable to the rules. Therefore, the new investors that put money into the company at a discounted price will not be able to sell these shares immediately into the market… But they will be able to provide the much-needed funding we require in order to complete strategic objectives like a proper launch of MOBICArd™2.0 and by definition increase the value of the company. However, we will still need to clear a few hurdles before it is completely set up.” explained Chairman & CEO Joshua Sodaitis. One requirement of Regulation CF is that the issuer cannot conduct the offering itself. The offering must only be conducted through a crowdfunding intermediary commonly referred to as a “funding portal.” Crowdfunding intermediaries must be registered with the SEC as a broker-dealer or as a funding portal and become a member of FINRA. An issuer is required to use only one intermediary to conduct an offering in reliance on Section 4(a)(6). The SEC has stated that it believes this helps foster the creation of a “crowd” and better serves the purpose of the statute. On the Form C, an issuer is required to disclose detailed information including background checks, about its officers and directors. Instead of requiring issuers to disclose the name of each 20 percent beneficial owner as of the most recent practicable date calculated based on voting power, such disclosure is required as of the most recent practicable date but no earlier than 120 days prior to the date the offering statement or report is filed. Rule 201(d) requires the issuer to disclose information about its business and anticipated business plan. Rule 201(i) requires an issuer to provide a reasonably detailed description of the purpose of the offering so that investors understand how the offering proceeds will be spent. The SEC provides several examples of the disclosure’s issuers should consider making about the uses of the offering proceeds. For example, an issuer may plan to use the proceeds of an offering to acquire assets or businesses, compensate an intermediary or its own employees, or repurchase outstanding securities of the issuer. In providing its description, an issuer should consider the appropriate level of detail to provide investors about the assets or businesses it anticipates acquiring, based on its particular facts and circumstances, so that the investors could make informed decisions. PTOP is exploring potentially acquiring some of the smaller competitors in this space, and absorbing their operations, PTOP will make any necessary disclosures at the proper time. If the proceeds will be used to compensate existing employees or to hire new employees, the issuer should consider disclosing whether the proceeds will be used for salaries or bonuses and how many employees it plans to hire, as applicable. If the issuer will repurchase outstanding issuer securities, it should consider disclosing its plans, terms, and purpose for repurchasing the securities. PTOP recognizes that any form of a stock buyback plan could stabilize the price and potentially establish a floor. At this time, however, that is not in the plans but can be revisited after a restructuring. An issuer also should consider disclosing how long the proceeds will satisfy the operational needs of the business. If it does not have definitive plans for the proceeds but instead has identified a range of possible uses, then it should identify and describe each probable use and the factors it may consider in allocating proceeds among the potential uses. Additional Disclosure Requirements on Form C include; the identity of the Intermediary, Compensation Paid to the Intermediary, Legends, Current Number of Employees, Risk Factors, Indebtedness, Prior Exempt Offerings, Related-Party Transactions, Financial Disclosures, Financial Condition Discussion, an issuer must disclose on its website the location where investors will be able to find its annual report and more. It is a LENGTHY legal disclosure process. PTOP has chosen to conduct a PCAOB AUDIT of its 2022 & 2021 financial statements to comply with the requirements needed for Form C, Reg CF. No matter what, the issuer must disclose any material information. “It’s a lot of work. The crowdfunding company TruCrowd told me that it has taken some companies an entire year to get everything done. I worked diligently to get everything except the PCAOB audit completed. We also need our Edgarization codes, which we are trying to locate from previous management, otherwise I will have to pay for new ones. I am proud to say that I am one of the fastest they have ever seen to get stuff completed. PTOP has already paid to have the escrow account set up. I signed multiple agreements and worked diligently with multiple parties to get the entire form C ready. We are 99% completed and need to pay our securities attorney to review Form C that I have completed. We need to also pay for the audit, and maybe new Edgar codes. I am trying to move lighting fast, but as I stated in my Annual Shareholders Letter these things cost money. PTOP will need to rely on shareholders to get these specific action items paid for. Once I have the funding to complete the Form C we can submit it to the SEC & I can continue to work hard delivering on the strategic objectives I have laid out in the Annual Shareholder Letter,” exclaimed CEO Joshua Sodaitis. PTOP believes that with $1 million set aside for the MOBICARD™2.0 marketing budget, we could afford a $1 per customer acquisition cost. Meaning that we should be able to catapult MOBICARD™2.0 to a million users even before we fulfill the crowdfunding limits. “This is an exciting time to be a shareholder of PTOP, we are getting ready to make a huge impact on the market. There has probably never been a better time to become a shareholder. Granted there are a few challenges that lay ahead but imagine investing in Uber right before their apps dropped, and they were aligning funding for the launch of their app. I believe we have the same potential if not greater. We don’t have to scale by hiring more drivers or having the headache of car inventory, or service providers. As our company grows, we can scale it simply by increasing our server space. Our costs are really all on the front end, and once we kick MOBICARD™2.0 off with a BANG, not even the sky is the limit. I am confident that we will get the support of the shareholders to complete the payments for these KEY strategic objectives so that I can knock off the entire 10-point action item list I described in my Annual Letter To Shareholders, there are never any guarantee but I believe it’s a lot more probable than not. I think 2023 is PTOP’s year to break out in a major way,” concluded CEO Mr. Sodaitis. PTOP’s CEO plans to answer a bunch of shareholder questions on the PTOP message boards on Thursday evening so I encourage anyone with any comments questions, or concerns to reach out on the message boards at www.ptopnetwork.com Like us @MobiCard on Facebook.

I traded in everything to help build BIG smiles on children that genuinely deserve to smile.” “I am so excited to come to Cook Children’s finally.” Cassevah continues, “This will be our fourth delivery in TX, and Forth Worth is home to so many amazing LittleBricks Ambassadors. It is the efforts of amazing people in the local community like Richie and Savannah Petronis that make these smiles possible.” Russell is also pleased to have Holly Jones, a Registered Nurse at Cook Children’s and part of the LittleBricks Charity Family, join the delivery. “When we get to have amazing professionals from our LEGO® join in it makes everything so much more meaningful. Holly knows firsthand the effect these LEGO® Building Sets have on her patients." And what makes this delivery EXTRA Special is that LittleBricks Charity gets to host a Build Event with Cook Children’s Child Life Specialist Team. “We are so excited to build moments of joy with amazing kids. The staff at Cook Children’s have gone above and beyond to create a memorable event for the patients they care for. We are honored to get to be a part of that. After all, the real magic happens once the bricks are in the kid’s hands.” Russell’s community on TikTok, which has grown to over 1.1 million followers, has already raised enough to buy $2,000 worth of LEGO® Sets that he will be bringing to Fort Worth. “I will be raising the remaining funds and telling everyone about how epic Cook Children’s is at the family friend BrickFest LIVE this weekend in Austin, TX.” Russell expects to raise at least another $3,000 and purchase more LEGO® Sets for the children in Fort Worth. “It is so spectacular when communities on social media come together with local communities. We have already received donations from all over the world to help “Build BIG Smiles” on these Epic Kids! Now it is time for Texas to show the world how epic This area truly is.” Cassevah and the Child Life Specialists he works with say the donated LEGO® Sets are the most requested toy for hospitalized children. It gives them a mental escape from medical treatments, provides a sense of control, opens lines of communication, makes families smile, and so much more.

February is Pet Dental Health Month

YourUpdateTV

Dental disease affects 80% of adult dogs and 96% of senior dogs[1], but new data from WHIMZEES ® by Wellness ® finds that very few Gen Z and Millennial pet parents are brushing their dog’s teeth daily, and less than one-half (44%) could list the signs of disease to their vet.[2] With February being Pet Dental Health Month, it is the perfect opportunity to start a proper doggy dental routine. Recently, Dr. Danielle Bernal, veterinarian with WHIMZEES ® by Wellness ®, participated in a nationwide satellite media tour to discuss pet dental health and what pet parents can do to establish a healthy routine. A video accompanying this announcement is available at: https://youtu.be/cI_Hd6OfAIw Ideally, pet parents should be thinking about their dog’s teeth the same way they do their own. When it comes to at-home care, daily brushing of a dog’s teeth with a toothbrush and special canine toothpaste works, but pet parents often face toothbrush troubles.In fact, WHIMZEES by Wellness found that Gen Z and Millennial pet parents’ dogs have given side eye (58%) or run away (41%) at the sight of one. “If you are struggling with brushing your dog’s teeth consistently, incorporating a daily dental chew can be an excellent resource to help maintain your dog’s dental care and keep those tails wagging,” said Dr. Danielle Bernal. “In addition to daily dental care, it’s important to recognize the signs of periodontal disease, such as discoloration, broken or loose teeth, super stinky breath, reduced appetite and inflamed gums. By incorporating a daily dental chew like WHIMZEES by Wellness, pet parents can ensure they’re treating their dogs well and give them healthy smiles to live happier and healthier lives together.” WHIMZEES by Wellness all-natural dental treats allows pet parents to treat dogs well by combining the joy of treats with health benefits of supporting healthy teeth and gums. By giving just one WHIMZEES treat a day to fight bacteria that resurfaces daily, dogs get twice the cleaning power because WHIMZEES last three times longer to provide more cleaning time.[3] They are thoughtfully engineered with grooves and ridges to provide dogs with both chomping and cleaning, making WHIMZEES the treat that treats them well. WHIMZEES ® by Wellness ® dental treats are conveniently available at pet specialty retailers, national retailers and online.
