Twang Partners LLC

Twang, creators of the original Beer Salt and premium flavored salt, sugar and spice blends, is proud to announce its sponsorship of Spencer Boyd for the 2023 NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series season with upcoming races in Kansas City, Bristol, Talladega, Miami and Phoenix. The partnership marks an exciting collaboration that resonates with the spirit of competition, innovation, and celebration that both Twang and NASCAR embody. Throughout the 2023 season, Twang's iconic logo will adorn Spencer Boyd's truck, prominently displayed in five exhilarating races. On September 14th for the race at Bristol Motor Speedway, Twang will take center stage with a fully wrapped Beer Salt branded truck! For the remaining four races, Twang’s logo will proudly find its place alongside other sponsors on the vehicle. "We're revving up for an electrifying partnership with Spencer in the NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series Season," said Edmundo Macias, Director of Marketing of Twang. "Just like the fast-paced action on the track, Twang's flavorful offerings bring joy and excitement to food and drink enthusiasts nationwide. This collaboration perfectly aligns with our upcoming expansion into 3,500 Walmart stores across the country with our Lime & Lemon-Lime Beer Salt, and we're eager to amplify our presence in the hearts of NASCAR fans." Twang's partnership with Spencer Boyd goes beyond the racetrack. As part of this dynamic alliance, Twang will also engage fans through unique experiences and giveaways. Fans will have the opportunity to sample Twang’s wide array of products, adding a dash of flavor to their NASCAR experience. Additionally, Twang will take part in e-blast giveaways, offering fans the chance to win exclusive prizes and immerse themselves in a world of flavor with Twang. Spencer Boyd's journey in NASCAR is a testament to his determination and passion. With a racing background that started on dirt bikes and evolved through go-karts and short-track venues, Boyd has consistently demonstrated his prowess on the racetrack. His dedication to excellence aligns perfectly with Twang's commitment to delivering premium products that elevate eating and drinking experiences. As Twang continues to celebrate its rich heritage and legacy, this partnership marks a thrilling chapter in the brand's story. From its humble beginnings in a garage to becoming a nationwide sensation, Twang's journey mirrors the resilience and spirit of both Spencer and NASCAR. In 1986, Twang Founder Roger Treviño Sr. left his career after experiencing an epiphany while on a business trip in Mexico. Visiting a Mexican street vendor selling citrus salt, he was reminded of his childhood in San Antonio, with its abundance of Latino flavors. He returned home inspired to create a variety of flavored salts to share with friends and family. Launching the Twang business out of his family garage and together with the Treviño children to help, his first product (and claim to fame) was Twang Beer Salt, an integral product in the Southern trend of “dressing” beers and other libations. From these humble beginnings, the Treviños have since expanded Twang product lines into flavored salt for food, cocktail rimmer blends, michelada mix, and more to come!

10 Reasons You May Want To Have Mainz Biomed (NASDAQ: MYNZ) On Your Radar

Benzinga

By Faith Ashmore, Benzinga The WHO reports that colorectal cancer is the second most fatal cancer around the world. However, it is also the most preventable, with early detection leading to survival rates above 90%. Alarming statistics reveal that new cases of colorectal cancer in individuals under the age of 50 have been steadily rising over the past few decades. Colorectal cancer is now the leading cause of cancer death for Americans between the ages of 20 and 59 years old according to the National Cancer Institute. However, younger adults are not routinely screened for colorectal cancer as it is still relatively uncommon in their age group. Mainz Biomed (NASDAQ: MYNZ), a company that specializes in developing molecular genetic diagnostic solutions for life-threatening conditions, has created ColoAlert, an innovative product that addresses the need for easier and more accessible cancer screenings for quick detection and treatment of colorectal cancer. This non-invasive and user-friendly test aims to make colorectal cancer screening fast, simple and precise. The company seems to be gaining momentum in the industry, and here are 10 reasons you may want to keep your eye on them. Flagship Product For Early Detection Mainz Biomed has developed a flagship product, ColoAlert, which has the potential to establish the company as a frontrunner in the early detection of colorectal cancer. By providing a highly sensitive and accurate screening tool, ColoAlert has the capacity to revolutionize the way colorectal cancer is detected and treated. The test is the first DNA-based screening test for colorectal cancer in Europe, which sees the highest incidence rate for colorectal cancer. Tapping into A Multi-Billion Dollar Market While this innovative screening tool will be useful to young people who don’t get regular screenings, is not limited to younger ages. In fact, ColoAlert may have an annual market opportunity of around $3.7 Billion in the U.S. for testing populations aged 50 and above every three years, as recommended by the FDA. ColoAlert's unique genetic profiles allow for tailored treatment for each individual patient, leading to better health outcomes for patients with colorectal cancer. This revolutionary product is a major stride in combating colorectal cancer and has the potential to save countless lives. As GenX individuals age into their 40s and 50s, they become part of the age group recommended for colorectal cancer screening. This demographic shift presents a significant market opportunity as the demand for screening and related services continues to rise. Experienced Leadership Team Mainz Biomed has successfully attracted former executives from major pharmaceutical giants to its leadership team. CEO Guido Baechler, a former Roche Molecular Diagnostics executive, brings invaluable expertise to the company's strategic development. Additionally, Chief Commercial Officer Darin Leigh's extensive executive commercial experience across leading life science and healthcare firms further strengthens the company’s leadership. Positive Feedback And Upcoming Studies Mainz Biomed has already received encouraging feedback for its lead product, ColoAlert. This feedback serves as an endorsement of the product's effectiveness and potential impact on early detection. Furthermore, the company expects upcoming study data to validate the clinical benefits and efficacy of ColoAlert, further bolstering its role as an essential tool in colorectal cancer screening. Detecting Precancerous Conditions The company's focus on detecting advanced adenoma represents a significant stride in identifying colorectal cancer at a precancerous stage. By identifying and removing these precursors during screening, Mainz Biomed helps prevent the progression of the disease and reduces the risk of developing colorectal cancer. This early intervention can have a profound impact on patient outcomes and survival rates. Strong Price Target Analysts have set an $11 price target for MYNZ, reflecting the positive sentiment surrounding the company's growth potential. This price target implies confidence in Mainz Biomed’s ability to capture a significant share of the market and generate value for investors. The company has seen significant revenue growth in 2023 -- the revenues generated by ColoAlert in the first half of 2023 surged by 108% when compared to the same period in 2022 as the company expanded international commercialization for ColoAlert and entered new markets in Europe. This remarkable growth further solidifies Mainz Biomed's position in the industry and showcases its ability to develop groundbreaking products that meet the needs of healthcare professionals and patients alike. Flagship Product Competes With Large Players Mainz Biomed's ColoAlert competes with Cologuard from Exact Sciences Corporation (NASDAQ: EXAS), a well-established company that commands a market cap of over $10 billion. It’s clear that even in the earlier stages, Mainz Biomed is shaping up to be a formidable player in the field of early detection for colorectal cancer. Expanding International Presence The company is actively pursuing international commercial activities to introduce ColoAlert to a global market. By expanding its reach, it aims to increase accessibility to its innovative screening product, ensuring early detection and prevention of colorectal cancer on a global scale. Strong Financial Position The company also boasts of a stable financial position due to ample cash reserves, enabling the company to fund ongoing operations and drive growth initiatives effectively. In June, the company secured up to $50 million in new funding. This financial strength provides Mainz Biomed with the stability and resources necessary to invest in research and development, expand its portfolio and bring innovative products to market. Strategic Partnership For Novel Biomarkers The company has established a strategic partnership with Microba Life Sciences to explore the discovery and integration of novel microbiome biomarkers into its pipeline asset, PancAlert. By leveraging Microba's expertise, the company aims to develop PancAlert into a potential first-in-class screening test for pancreatic cancer, addressing a critical need for early detection of this challenging disease. The Future For Mainz Biomed And Cancer Diagnostics Mainz Biomed is on a mission to become a leading global provider of easy-to-use diagnostic solutions for patients and healthcare providers everywhere. The company heads into the second half of 2023 confident of future growth as ColoAlert gains more traction in Europe and select international markets. The company also has a busy pipeline. It is ramping up enrollment planning for ReconAAsense – the company’s U.S. pivotal study for its flagship product – and executing clinical trials evaluating a portfolio of proprietary novel gene expression (mRNA) biomarkers for potential inclusion into ReconAAsense. Through its partnership with Microba Life Sciences, Mainz is also advancing PancAlert, its next-generation pancreatic cancer detection test. Interested investors may want to watch out for data from the company’s two feasibility studies. With a combination of innovative products, experienced leadership, an active pipeline and strategic collaborations, Mainz Biomed seems well-positioned to make a significant impact on the early detection of colorectal and potentially other markets like pancreatic cancers. Their commitment to pushing the boundaries of diagnostic technology and growth trajectory seems to be making them a force to be reckoned with in the industry, setting them apart from their competitors.

Grayscale Victory Could Prove Pivotal For Bitcoin Spark's Success

Bitcoin Spark

Leading Crypto Asset Manager: Grayscale Grayscale Investments has carved a niche for itself as an innovator in the cryptocurrency realm. Recognized as a principal manager of digital currency assets, Grayscale's track record lies in offering safe entry and varied involvement to the asset class encompassing digital currencies such as Bitcoin. Their ground-breaking initiative is exemplified by Grayscale's Bitcoin Trust, which is the inaugural publicly traded securities exclusively invested in and gaining value from Bitcoin. However, Grayscale has not been without its share of challenges. The company's innovative approach to digital currency has sometimes put them at odds with regulatory bodies, leading to legal disputes. One such dispute, a lawsuit against the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), has been the focus of recent attention in the cryptocurrency community. The outcome of this lawsuit could have far-reaching implications for Bitcoin and other digital currencies. Why does the Grayscale Lawsuit against the SEC matter? The legal action taken by Grayscale against the SEC is a groundbreaking matter and will pave the way for the future of cryptocurrencies. The litigation puts into question the SEC's power to oversee digital currencies the way it has in the past. The result of this court case could establish a model for how cryptocurrencies are dealt with by oversight agencies moving forward. Grayscale's lawsuit is centered on the SEC's decision to deny a Bitcoin Spot ETF while approving Future ETFs. It highlights and questions the SEC’s decision-making under Gary Gensler as chair. As the court ruled in favor of Grayscale, not only the price of Bitcoin and all other altcoins jumped by up to 20%, also the ICO of Bitcoin Spark saw an influx of investors rushing to buy the newest Bitcoin alternative. How does the Court Win Favor Bitcoin Spark's Success? The Grayscale lawsuit's positive outcome already had a significant impact on Bitcoin Spark's success since the ruling, with the majority of its investors rushing to buy more BTCS since. The win for Grayscale bolsters the legitimacy of digital currencies and provides a significant endorsement of the legitimacy of Bitcoin and other digital currencies. This will help to dispel some of the skepticism that surrounds cryptocurrencies, potentially leading to increased acceptance and adoption of digital currencies like Bitcoin Spark (BTCS). As Phase 4 of the Bitcoin Spark ICO starts to ramp up, the previous phase saw a huge rush of buyers since the court win of Grayscale against the SEC. The highly sought-after ICO is expected to sell out fairly quickly, especially with the innovative hybrid consensus mechanism Proof-of-Process and the ability to mine BTCS with just a smartphone. Final Thoughts The Grayscale lawsuit win against the SEC is a landmark event in the world of cryptocurrency. It will have far-reaching implications for Bitcoin Spark and other digital currencies. This court ruling will pave the way for more widespread adoption of digital currencies, bolster the legitimacy of cryptocurrencies, and drive up the value of Bitcoin Spark. For more information: Website: https://bitcoinspark.org/ Buy BTCS: https://network.bitcoinspark.org/register Bitcoin Spark is an alternative fork of Bitcoin encoded using the revolutionary Proof-of-Process technology, which allows anyone with a smart device to actively mine and participate in the BTCS network.
