Benzinga Sits Down With The Founder Of One Of The World’s Fastest Growing Brokerages To Discuss Company’s Vision, Roadblocks, Milestones Hit And Outlook

Moneta Markets

By Jad Malaeb, Benzinga Benzinga spoke with David Bily, the Founder and CEO of Moneta Markets, to get behind the story of one of the world’s fastest-growing brokerages. After over a decade within the finance sector, Bily found that most brokerages had become too bureaucratic to meet the needs of traders. Below, he tells Benzinga how it all started. Q: Where did the idea for Moneta come from? A: ”In an industry where there are several giants who have resisted evolving with technology and customer demand, I wanted to make superior trading technologies accessible to more people and help them achieve their financial goals with confidence. This requires agility, which older and more established incumbents lack due to the many layers of red tape. It's this ‘red tape’ that presented a significant gap in the market and hence an opportunity for me to build a broker from the ground up that can rapidly respond to an ever-evolving industry and clients' ongoing requirements. Moneta shuns legacy technology and dated industry standards.” Q: How did the vision for Moneta change as the industry grew? A: “I had initially envisioned Moneta Markets as a pure web-based brokerage. The plan was to create an all-in-one trading platform, client portal, and onboarding package so users could access global markets with ease. However, as the business grew, so did the demand from clients for access to MT4 and MT5. While it was quite a surprise, it was evident that the Metaquotes platforms aren't going away anytime soon, so it was vital to cater to this demand. Our vision for Moneta Markets is constantly evolving to focus on things like new technological innovations and how we can improve customer-centricity on an ongoing basis. We realized that to stay competitive and continue providing value to our clients, we needed to constantly improve our technology and services. We also became more committed to educating our clients about trading and investing, helping them make informed decisions based on their own goals and risk tolerance.” Q: What differentiates Moneta from other brokerages? A: “First, we are responsive to the needs and feedback of our network of clients and partners. A lot of effort also goes into the way we communicate with our clients. As a global brand, it's important for Moneta to communicate with clients in their language. Our website, emails, and 24/7 customer service are available in the primary languages of the regions that we operate in. Our effort to incorporate multiple languages into our customer service experience has been a key contributor to creating brand loyalty. Second, we dedicate our resources to improving what we offer, such as adding products to trade and reducing costs by cutting our spreads and commissions. For example, we have recently removed all commissions on our range of US Share CFDs. Third, we offer some of the highest-quality infrastructure and technology for traders. A robust infrastructure behind the scenes delivers true value to clients, so we dedicate resources to ensure we can provide the best prices and lowest latency to clients. We achieve this by setting up data centers and trade servers in strategic locations, using top-tier liquidity providers, and improving the way liquidity providers communicate with platforms.” Q: Have you faced any unexpected speedbumps as the brand’s founder? A: “It's an ongoing process to optimize and keep improving our platforms, which is not without its difficulties, but we have a great team dedicated to ensuring that we are at the forefront. Our increasing client base solidifies that we are delivering value through technology, and I want that to continue well into the future. Another more recent issue was when MetaQuotes, for whatever reason, pulled their MT4 and MT5 apps from the Apple App Store. In a world where people are always on the go, access to a portable trading solution is imperative, and MetaQuotes' removal from the App Store essentially pulled the rug out from under our feet at the time. However, it also provided the catalyst to bring forward the development of our own trading app, which in turn was a blessing in disguise. While the MT4 and MT5 apps are now back on the App Store, I believe launching our new AppTrader will set a new standard for mobile trading.” Q: How has the company grown since its inception? A: “While there was some initial trial and error, we have really started to gain traction in the industry. In fact, we recently hit a major milestone reaching and surpassing 100 employees with offices around the world, putting us at the medium-sized enterprise level, which is something I’m very proud to have achieved in such a short period of time. Moneta Markets has also experienced strong growth in user numbers and trading volume recently. We've expanded our offerings to include new products, and robust trading platforms, in fact, our web-based Pro Trader platform now integrates seamlessly with both MT4 and MT5, and we are constantly striving to improve our trading conditions. We have recently deployed several new Data Centres in key locations worldwide, upgraded our MetaTrader 4 servers, and are in the process of launching a new MetaTrader 5 server. We put a lot of emphasis on partnering with the right people and companies, who are instrumental in supporting our growth. Our customer satisfaction ratings have also remained consistently high, which we believe is a testament to our commitment to quality service and the key to building a trusted reputation.” Q: What do the next 12-24 months look like for Moneta Markets? A: “We see the Middle Eastern region as a key market for future growth, so we are in the process of setting up an office in Dubai, which is expected to be ready within the next month or two. We have also been experiencing strong growth in the Latin American regions, and are setting up multiple offices there within the next quarter, too. In the next 12-24 months, we plan to continue expanding our product offerings and investing in our technology to improve the trading experience for our clients. We are excited about the launch of AppTrader, our custom-built mobile trading app, which should be on the market within the next couple of weeks. It’s been a huge project for us, but we have a fantastic team of UX professionals and developers who have worked tirelessly to assemble what we think will be a new benchmark for mobile trading. We are also in the process of rolling out our education portal which features a library of how-tos, financial news, live educational sessions, and more, to empower traders to make better decisions and improve their trading outcomes. We will continue to work around the clock to do what it takes to capture market share, with the ultimate goal of building Moneta into a brand with an industry-wide reputation for excellence.” Check out Moneta Markets to learn how this rising brokerage could serve trading needs. Moneta Markets offers its clients a wide range of trading options, including over 1000 Forex pairs, Indices, Commodities, Share CFDs, ETFs, Bonds, and Crypto CFDs, all of which can be traded on the powerful MT4, MT5, and the next-generation PRO Trader platforms, across both STP and ECN accounts.

President Biden Issues First Veto – Stay Ahead Of The News With FiscalNote (NYSE: NOTE)

Benzinga

By Jad Malaeb, Benzinga President Biden issued his first veto in office. House Republicans are pressing a new energy bill, dubbed H.R.1, that would “expedite energy products, eliminate or reduce certain fees related to the development of federal energy sources and eliminate certain funds that provide incentives to decrease emissions of greenhouse gases.” In short, the Lower Cost Energy Act (i.e. H.R.1) is a plea for looser restrictions on greenhouse-producing energy products and activities like oil drilling and exploration. Even though the bill was a long way from reaching the Presidential desk, the White House made its stance clear. In a statement issued on Mar. 27th, the White House said: “If presented to the President in its current form, he would veto it.” - which they did. The White House noted that H.R. 1 would replace “pro-consumer policies with a thinly veiled license to pollute” and “raise costs for American families by repealing household energy rebates and rolling back historic investments to increase access to cost-lowering clean energy technologies.” Legislation And Regulation Tracking Technology Through FiscalNote Bills with a monumental impact on the future of the nation are discussed on a continuous basis by the U.S. government. These bills can also have major implications for financial markets. President Biden’s Infrastructure Act, for example, is heavily linked to the rise in the stock prices of companies like Caterpillar (NYSE: CAT) and Applied Material Inc. (NASDAQ: AMAT) in anticipation of the Act taking effect. Individually keeping track of each bill, however, is a nearly impossible task without the help of specialized software. This is where FiscalNote Holdings Inc. (NYSE: NOTE) comes in.

Stay One Step Ahead: Master the Essentials of Cybersecurity Readiness!

YourUpdateTV

From data breaches to phishing scams, cybercrime is on the rise, and it's time to arm yourself with the knowledge and tools to stay safe in the digital world. Recently, Dave Lewis, Global Advisory Chief Information Security Officer at Cisco Security, conducted a satellite media tour to share tips and tricks to outsmart cyber criminals and stay safe online. A video accompanying this announcement is available at: https://youtu.be/VDTqR8LqwOM After surveying over 6,700 cybersecurity leaders worldwide, Cisco found that less than 15% of companies were ‘Mature’ enough (or considered to have advanced enough security) to defend against modern cybersecurity risks, even though 82% of respondents said they expect a cybersecurity incident to disrupt their business in the next two years. While this may not seem to directly impact consumers at first, the aftermath can take a large toll on the public, causing emails, credit cards and personal information to be leaked on the internet. Here are some tips that Lewis shared: · Be a safe shopper: o Never use a debit card, use a credit card, I like one specifically for online purchases. o Don’t save your personal or credit card information on any company site – If they company doesn’t have it, the company can’t lose it, and the criminals can’t steal it. o Closely watch your online accounts. · Build cyber street smarts - Criminals will use information from a breach against you: o Evaluate the company before sharing personal information. o Only share essential information with any company or third-party. o Know the signs of a scam - If it seems too good to be true, if there’s too much pressure. · Personal resilience - Expect breaches: o Use multi-factor on all accounts. o Use separate email addresses and credit cards – our phones may make this easier. o Talk about it when it happens – empathy and compassion, kinder than necessary. According to Cisco, 60% of respondents said they had a cybersecurity incident in the last year, which cost 41% of organizations affected at least $500,000. While forward-looking businesses are investing in resilience and focused on improving their ability to defend against and minimize the impact of an attack, consumers also must take an active role in protecting their own information, especially as breaches become more and more inevitable. To learn more about this and Cisco’s Cybersecurity Readiness Index, visit: cisco.com/go/readinessindex BIO: Dave Lewis is a Global Advisory CISO at Cisco Security. He has 25 years of experience in IT security operations and management including a decade dealing with critical infrastructure security. He is the founder of the security site Liquidmatrix Security Digest and writes columns for Daily Swig, Forbes and several other publications.

Allied Energy Corp Provides Update on the Thiel Well Bitcoin Mining Project with Enerhash

Allied Energy Corporation

Allied Energy Corp (OTC: AGYP), a producing oil and gas company focused on the leasing and reworking of oil and gas reserves in one of the most prolific hydrocarbon area in the United States, is pleased to provide a shareholder update regarding the Company's activities partnering with Enerhash USA at the Thiel Well site in an effort to begin flare gas bitcoin mining. On April 26th, CEO George Monteith of Allied Energy received a revised field build out report distributed by Enerhash's personal. Due to circumstances beyond the Company's control, initial target dates for the Thiel site had to be adjusted. At this time the Company is confident that all challenges have been overcome regarding the initial delays. The Company is pleased with the revised timeline and is thankful to report that thus far everything is proceeding according to plan. To date the following work has been completed: Operating permits - completed Site survey - completed Site planning - completed Elevation study - completed Contractor proposal for site buildout - completed Allied will update their shareholders as further developments occur with press releases and media updates on Twitter. The initial Thiel project, if all goes as planned, is expected to take 8-10 weeks to complete. The generators and data centers will be located 150 feet south of the wellhead. A meter run will be installed just north of the generator pad. The existing water tank will be reused for discharge from the separator. The elevated pad will be constructed of compacted engineered fill to support generator weights up to 60,000 lbs. per generator and 20,000 lbs. per data center. A reinforced concrete pad will be constructed on top of the compacted engineered fill to support the generator / generators. The contractor will provide two 3-inch electrical conduits with sweeping connections from the generators to each data center pad. Allied CEO George Monteith commented: "The Thiel is the first location where Allied will establish a bitcoin mining footprint in partnership with Enerhash. At this time, we believe that the Thiel site will be a 3-megawatt center and power three containers of bitcoin mining equipment. As per our last release investors / current shareholders can see that we are laying a broader foundation of gas well resources through our new partnership with Sloan Petroleum. Ultimately, we are focused on completing the initial 20-megawatt project with Enerhash to then set our sights toward completion of the 100-megawatt project. I am appreciative of all the hard work my team has given, we have a detailed plan and the resources to make it happen, now it is time to make the push toward mining digital currency." About Enerhash: Enerhash is an energy technology and digital infrastructure development company founded by European energy experts in 2019. Enerhash has developed projects on three continents providing renewable energy optimization and grid balancing services including New Zealand, Sweden, Hungary and now they are entering into the USA. Enerhash USA will align with energy producers as a solution to help alleviate harmful methane emissions caused by production. These solutions will monetize wasted natural gas resources to reduce emissions by eliminating routine flaring to reach ESG goals and unlock the value from stranded resources. To discover more about Enerhash USA, visit their corporate website at www.enerhashusa.com. About AGYP: Allied Energy Corp. is an energy development and production company acquiring oil & gas reserves in some of the most prolific hydrocarbon bearing regions of the United States. The Company specializes in the business of reworking & re-completing 'existing' oil & gas wells located in the thousands of mature oil & gas producing fields across the United States. The Company applies its knowledge, experience, and effective well-remediation technologies to achieve higher production volumes, longer well life, and more efficient recovery of the proven and available oil and gas reserves in the fields/projects in which it has acquired an ownership interest. The Company will utilize updated technologies such as hydraulic fracturing ("fracking"), drilling of lateral ("horizontal") legs in productive zones, and utilizing new cased hole electric logging to locate bypassed pays, all to enhance daily rates and oil & gas recoveries. By acquiring interests in a growing number of selected projects in various regions, Allied Energy Corp. is diversifying its exposure and effectively minimizing risk as it pursues corporate growth, top line & bottom-line revenues to the benefit of all stakeholders. There are proven, recoverable reserves contained in the many aging oil & gas fields that have been bypassed by companies moving away from these fields in search of deeper, more plentiful, but more costly reserves. The Company plans to concentrate on bypassed oil and gas as there is less competition and, as mentioned above, the costs are considerably less. Additionally, the company will acquire interests in marginal wells that can be acquired at minimal cost, of which there are 420,000 wells in the U.S. Quoting Barry Russell, President of the Independent Petroleum Association of America ("IPAA") - "With approximately 20 percent of American oil production and 10 percent of American natural gas production coming from marginal wells, they are America's true strategic petroleum reserve."

Shareholder Calls for Removal of Dan Schulman from Board at Verizon Annual Meeting

National Legal & Policy Center

Today, Paul Chesser, Director of the National Legal and Policy Center ’s Corporate Integrity Project, gave remarks at Verizon Communications Inc.’s annual meeting in Salt Lake City, to support a shareholder proposal the ethics group filed with the company. NLPC’s proposal would require the company to itemize and disclose the nature of ‘take-down requests’ it has received from the U.S. government. Revelations from “The Twitter Files,” about the aggressive efforts by the federal government to pressure social media and telecommunications companies to censor critics and political enemies of public officials, was part of the motivation for the proposal. During Chesser’s presentation, he also called for the removal of Dan Schulman, CEO of PayPal, from the Verizon board of directors. Schulman has presided over extensive censorship, de-platforming and punitive financial measures against customers during his tenure at PayPal. The full text of Chesser’s remarks is below: Verizon opposes our proposal for a report on government takedown requests because the Company says it already publishes so-called “ Transparency Reports,” and therefore the report we request isn’t necessary. But what Verizon calls a “Transparency Report,” is nothing of the sort. The report we seek asks for specific requests for censorship that Verizon has received from all branches of the United States government. All Verizon’s alleged “Transparency Reports” give you are numbers, and zero transparency. As we have seen from the revelations in the “ Twitter Files,” agencies controlled by the White House censored their critics via social and corporate media entities, at an unprecedented scale. For example, major tech companies including Verizon met monthly with the FBI and Homeland Security ahead of the 2020 election, to discuss how to handle so-called “election misinformation.” Platforms, including those controlled by Verizon, reportedly removed alleged “misinformation” at the request of the government. Yet there are no such disclosures of any censorship incidents in Verizon’s phony “Transparency Report.” But the type of report we request would include them. Verizon also engaged in election interference when it abruptly shut down a test run of one of Donald Trump’s most important voter-contact programs one weekend in July 2020, potentially costing the former president millions of dollars in donations. And in 2021, members of Congress who regulate the telecom industry wrote to Verizon urging them to drop One America News Network and other conservative-leaning news channels. Verizon ended its 17-year relationship with OANN, while the discredited, flailing CNN remains on the Company’s channel listings. If Verizon truly wanted to stop “misinformation,” they would dump CNN. Verizon, meanwhile, claims that, “Our respect for the right to freedom of expression of opinion is fundamental to our business.” Because of these examples I cited and others, we doubt that Verizon genuinely believes in freedom of speech. But if Verizon wants the public to believe that, one step they could take is to ask for the resignation of Dan Schulman from the Board of Directors. While he’s been CEO of PayPal, his company has implemented some of the most extreme cancel culture and censorship policies in Corporate America, including trying to impose a $2,500 fine of account holders who allegedly promote “misinformation.” PayPal also terminated, without warning, the account of one of the last remaining pro-Democracy groups in Hong Kong, before it fell to the communist Chinese government. I could cite many more examples of PayPal’s cancel culture actions during Mr. Schulman’s tenure. He has no business being on the board of a major media or telecom corporation – or any company for that matter. Thank you, and please vote FOR Item 5 on the proxy statement. END REMARKS NLPC has filed more than two dozen shareholder proposals this proxy season, and appeared at the annual meetings of Apple, Disney, Starbucks, Coca-Cola, Bank of America, Goldman Sachs, Berkshire Hathaway, and Boeing, and will similarly present resolutions at many other companies in the coming weeks. Founded in 1991, NLPC promotes ethics in public life and government accountability through research, investigation, education, and legal action. ### For more information or to schedule an interview with an NLPC representative, contact Dan Rene at 202-329-8357 or drene@nlpc.org.
