Caleb & Brown – A Ticket To Survival In Crypto Winter?

Caleb & Brown

This educational guide exploring How To Protect Crypto Assets in a Bear Market was created in conjunction with Caleb & Brown and Benzinga. Caleb & Brown is the world’s leading cryptocurrency brokerage. Learn more here. With the price of Bitcoin (CRYPTO: BTC) and Ethereum (CRYPTO: ETH) declining from all-time highs by approximately 75% and 82% respectively, many crypto investors have had a difficult time with their portfolios in 2022. Coming off the rampant bull market of 2021, the swift shift in sentiment has shocked thousands of investors who had grown accustomed to short-term buy-and-hold strategies that can beat the annual average market returns of crypto and traditional asset classes. For many, the transition did more than just shock. According to one Benzinga report, Bitcoin’s descent alone has wiped out 80,000 crypto millionaires in 2022. For many, whether to buy, sell or hold remains a deep mystery. For others, it may feel as if the choice has been made for them – it’s either hold, or sell at a severe loss with no hope of recouping those profits, or perhaps even the initial investment. It’s not an understatement to say that many crypto investors are weathering a storm, one that has potential to do lasting damage to their finances if this particularly harsh crypto winter is not navigated properly. As outlined in a previous article, an investor’s actions in a bear market could mean the difference between incurring unrecoverable losses or preserving capital for compounding returns in the bull markets to come (check out this resource to learn more about bear and bull markets).

Ready for Ron Sues Federal Election Commission

Ready for Ron

Ready for Ron (RFR), the only credible organization working to draft Governor Ron DeSantis to run for President, filed a lawsuit against the Federal Election Commission (FEC). The action, brought in the U.S. District Court for D.C., follows the FEC issuing an Advisory Opinion to prevent Ready for Ron from sharing with Governor DeSantis the names of those who signed a petition encouraging him to challenge Joe Biden. The lawsuit states in part, “…RFR wishes to provide its signed petition, including names and contact information provided by its signatories, to Governor DeSantis—a traditional form of political expression and association. The Commission has issued an advisory opinion concluding the Federal Election Campaign Act (“FECA”) prohibits RFR from doing so…” Prominent Republican campaign finance attorney Dan Backer recently argued before the FEC and submitted three detailed Public Comments to the FEC supporting Ready for Ron’s request, to share the list of supporters with DeSantis both before and during a potential candidacy – as an act of Constitutionally protected political speech. The arguments cited binding D.C. Circuit Court precedent, legislative history, and the FEC’s own administrative precedents. “The FEC would stop Ready For Ron from sharing a petition – the quintessential form of free speech – unless we also charged for it,” argued Backer. “Act Blue does the same thing we propose – sharing support names and contact information on a vastly larger scale – tens of millions of individuals – while funneling a billion and a half dollars a cycle”. “The FEC is fine with Act Blue doing this to support Biden, as long as money is involved, but when the speech is free or bad for Biden, suddenly it must be suppressed,” Backer continued. The lawsuit further states, “…RFR’s fundamental First Amendment rights to engage in political speech and expressive political association have been violated by the FEC’s response to RFR’s advisory opinion request and the reasonable prospect of prosecution if RFR provides its signed petition to Governor DeSantis…” “We are disappointed some on the FEC are again standing in the way of political speech and freedom of association. Millions of Americans want Ron DeSantis to run. Signing their names to Ready for Ron’s draft petition is the ultimate act of political free speech and association, and there is simply no basis for saying they cannot give those names to the Governor if – and when – he heeds their call and runs. It is disappointing that this litigation is necessary, but we are eager to protect our Free Speech and encourage DeSantis to seek the Presidency. We are confident we will prevail,” Backer continued. “We have before in taking on the FEC, and surely will again.” Since its launch in late May, Ready for Ron has garnered nearly 100,000 petition signers, generated significant media attention, and run hundreds of ads to help convince Ron DeSantis to run for President. Ready for Ron has emerged as the only credible independent organization in support of Ron DeSantis. Americans are encouraged to sign the petition at http://www.ReadyForRon.com to draft Ron DeSantis to run in 2024. ### The lawsuit and exhibits may be found at https://www.readyforron.com/lawsuit/ For more information or to schedule an interview with ‘Ready for Ron’ legal counsel Dan Backer or Lilian Rodríguez-Baz, contact Dan Rene at 202-329-8357 or dan@readyforron.com.

Elsevier

The American College of Medical Genetics and Genomics (ACMG), the only nationally recognized US medical professional organization solely dedicated to improving health through the practice of medical genetics and genomics, and Elsevier, a global leader in research publishing and information analytics, are delighted to announce the January 2023 launch of a new gold open access, online only journal: Genetics in Medicine Open ( GIM Open ), an Official Journal of the ACMG. GIM Open will complement ACMG’s flagship journal Genetics in Medicine ( GIM ), also published by Elsevier, and is designed to meet the evolving needs of the global medical genetics and genomics community and expand its open access publishing options. Published under Creative Commons license, all GIM Open articles will be immediately, permanently, and openly available online for readers to view, download, share, and reuse. This will enable authors to more easily comply with funder and institutional mandates, even as requirements continue to evolve. ACMG’s decision to expand the breadth of its openly available content directly supports its mission to improve personal and public health through the clinical and laboratory practice of medical genetics; advocacy, education, and clinical research programs; and the safe and effective integration of genetics and genomics into all of medicine and healthcare. “I am excited about our new gold open access journal that will be available to anyone, anytime, anywhere in the world independent of financial resources or library access. GIM Open will be an international journal with a focus on medical genetics and genomic medicine including all aspects of therapy,” noted ACMG retiring Chief Executive Officer Maximilian Muenke, MD, FACMG, who led the development of the new journal. “It will be a trail blazer for diversity, equity, and inclusion from a double anonymous review process of manuscripts, to the Editor-in-Chief and an editorial board that truly reflects our society in the United States and around the world. We are fortunate to work with our colleagues Robert D. Steiner, MD, FAAP, FACMG, and Jan Higgins, PhD, ELS, from GIM and our publisher Elsevier on the start of this new venture.

Launching GIM Open strongly aligns with our mission to help researchers and healthcare professionals advance science and improve health outcomes for the benefit of society, and we share the commitment to inclusion and diversity at the heart of this exciting new venture.” GIM Open manuscript processing will include rigorous double anonymous peer review, a rapid submission to publication decision turnaround time, and an expedited publication timeline. Detailed instructions for authors and information regarding open access and publishing fees can be found here. Manuscript submission will open as of October 25, 2022. Papers submitted to GIM may be considered for publication in GIM Open if deemed more appropriate for that journal. It is Elsevier’s intention to submit GIM Open for inclusion in the major abstracting and indexing services at the earliest opportunity. As one of the fastest-growing open access publishers in the world, nearly all of Elsevier's 2,700 journals enable open access publishing, including 600 fully open access journals. In 2021, Elsevier published 119,000 gold or pay-to-publish open access articles, an increase of more than 46% over 2020, making Elsevier one of the largest open access publishers in the world.

AI For All: How One Company Is Helping Small Businesses Improve Profitability Through AI

FatBrAin

Whether the economy is in a period of rapid growth or a major downturn, it’s often the topic of conversations and media attention alike. And while the stock market and big-name corporations often dominate headlines and news cycles around the state of the economy, many may be surprised to learn that it is small to medium-sized enterprises, also known as SMEs, that act as the true driving engine behind most economies globally. According to The World Bank, SMEs comprise a whopping 90% of businesses around the world and, on average, represent approximately half of employment. SMEs carry the bulk of the U.S.’s gross domestic product (GDP) output and generate millions of jobs. A report by the U.S. Small Business Administration Office of Advocacy notes that SMEs account for 44% of U.S. economic activity. Another report by the World Bank shows that SMEs are responsible for around 50% of worldwide employment as well as 40% of emerging markets. These metrics show that SMEs are foundational components of the U.S. economy, and their growth is key for the health of the economy. The World Bank estimates 600 million jobs will be needed to absorb the growing workforce by 2030, opening new opportunities for SMEs to improve their operational efficiencies and deepen their integration into their respective value chains. The good news: Technologies that could improve the efficiency, effectiveness and thus the profitability of SMEs already exist. At the top of this list of technologies is one many are already familiar with: artificial intelligence (AI). The Role Of Artificial Intelligence In SME Growth The human relationship to AI has been around for decades. With impressions ranging from the post-apocalyptic (think “The Matrix”) to the utopic (think automatic cancer diagnosis), the world has pondered the influence that machine intelligence could have on life and business. Many of these ideas are no longer merely products of wishful imagination. As professor Melanie Mitchell of Portland State University puts it, “Today’s AI programs… can spot subtle financial fraud, find relevant web pages in response to ambiguous queries, map the best driving route to almost any destination, beat human grandmasters at chess and Go, and translate between hundreds of languages.” This cognitive power has also been leveraged to produce results in financial settings. AI has been lauded for its ability to cut costs, automate tasks and create solutions. A report by the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD) illuminates the benefits of AI with great clarity and places a spotlight on its efficacy with SMEs. Per this report, “By identifying patterns in datasets and learning from tacit knowledge, new AI systems make automating nonroutine tasks possible and frees workers from repetitive lower value-added tasks,” the report states. “These new waves of automation could help SMEs increase productivity, e.g. by refocusing activities on higher value-added functions, by reducing human and economic costs associated with accidents or injuries, or improving work environment. The implementation of such systems could also help small businesses overcome administrative bottlenecks and increase reactivity at lower costs, for instance by enabling customer interaction 24/7.” Automation is coming to simple apps that can be downloaded from on-line app stores to do critical tasks like reconciling bank accounts. The problem: Capital and information barriers have kept AI largely in the realms of corporate giants like IBM (NYSE: IBM) and conveniently out of reach of those that most need them: SMEs. FatBrain: ‘Artificial Intelligence For All’ FatBrain AI (LZG International, Inc.) (OTCQB: LZGI ) aims to change that. As a specialist in AI solutions for SMEs and beyond, FatBrain has cultivated AI solutions that enable every organization to simplify decision-making and harness data to grow, save and do better business. Daily, weekly, monthly SME problem cycles could involve the spectrum from “How can I get paid faster?”, “How should I pay my workers?”, “How can I get insured quickly?” to “When should I invest in capital?” FatBrain lowers the barriers to adopting data-driven AI solutions to address such questions. FatBrain believes such problems facing SMEs today have been troubling business owners for decades. These problems have long been difficult to derive solutions for because they involve too much data, have too many variables, and require too much time to efficiently address. FatBrain offers a comprehensive suite of solutions. It works by plugging into existing software-as-a-service (SaaS) products — like QuickBooks (NASDAQ: INTU) Shopify (NASDAQ: SHOP), and Hubspot (NYSE: HUBS) — and aligns data there with millions of diverse market data signals. Then, the collected data is passed through FatBrain’s AI 2.0 Peer Intelligence engine which, alongside FatBrain expert coaches, turns masses of disparate data into peer-intelligence and actionable insights. According to Chief Operating Officer Shawn Carey, FatBrain has worked with some of the biggest names in the business to help solve problems, including Bank of America Corp. (NYSE: BAC), Comcast Corp. (NASDAQ: CMCSA), IBM (NYSE:IBM), Samsung Electronics Co. Ltd. (KRX: 005930) and Pilgrim’s Pride (NASDAQ: PPC). Now, it wants to level the playing field by bringing AI to the driving engine of the U.S. economy: SMEs. FatBrain has a growing suite of plug-n-play solutions for SMEs that provide peer intelligence and actionable insights using FatBrain’s AI 2.0 technologies that are not available elsewhere in the market today. Stay tuned to Benzinga to learn more about how FatBrain and its solutions suite is revolutionizing AI for all.
