Are Social Sportsbooks the Future of Online Sports Betting?

Acroud Media

Over the last few years, many different online social sportsbooks, such as Fliff, have come to light, and they seem to have become quick favorites for many online punters. << Check Out Fliff Sportsbook Here >> 18+ Please Gamble Responsibly. T&Cs Apply. Online social casinos and sportsbooks are a relatively new concept in world of online gambling and differ from standard real money sports betting sites and casinos in various ways. Social Sportsbook Bonuses Much like any other top online sports betting site, social sportsbooks offer great promo codes and welcome bonuses for new players signing up for the first time. One of the best offers you can find is the Fliff Promo Code, which you can find more about here in our article linked here. Players can find all the same types of bonuses, such as sign-up bonuses, no-deposit bonuses, VIP rewards, and much more! Be sure to check out what the sportsbook you choose has to offer before you sign-up. What is a Social Sportsbook? A social sportsbook, simply, is much like any other sports betting site that you may have seen before. Betting on events and your favorite sporting events remains the core concept of a social sportsbook, with players able to bet on hundreds of different betting markets. So what's the big deal? Well, social sportsbooks, such as Fliff, are not actually considered gambling sites in the US. This is because players technically do not use their money or funds to wager and place bets on these sites. Hence, not being classed as a true gambling site. Players use social currencies called gold coins and sweeps coins that are used to wager and place bets, and these can typically be acquired through sign-up bonuses, welcome promos, and regular player rewards. Not wagering your own finds is a huge benefit for many online sports punters, and social sports sites help limit that risk of losing money. However, players at social sportsbooks can purchase currency in the sportsbooks on-site store. Players at Fliff Sportsbook can purchase Fliff Coins to be able to use to wager on all the exciting sports on offer. Will Social Sports Betting become the New Norm? Playing at social sportsbooks or at a real money sports betting site it simply down to preference and what you enjoy. However, although the presence of social sportsbooks and casinos is growing larger, it is probably unlikely that they will overtake the popularity of real money sports betting sites. Why? Well, the opportunity for players to potentially win large prizes and win real money prizes just isn't there. Social sportsbooks and casinos were designed for players to have fun and enjoy the thrill of sports betting without major risks to their own money, and this is why socials do not pay out massively, as you may see with real money betting sites. The opportunity to win cool prizes and real money is there, but just on a smaller scale. While social betting platforms could always remain popular, players may still prefer to choose a real money option.

Shield Therapeutics' pricing will be "key metric" - Proactive Research Analyst

Shield Therapeutics PLC

Proactive Research Analyst Robin Davison speaks to Thomas Warner after publishing a new research note on iron defiency-focused commercial-stage specialty pharmaceutical company Shield Therapeutics. Davison gives an overview of what readers can expect from the note, highlighting Shield's recent half-year results and accompanying financing transactions. The company's burgeoning relationship with commercial partner Viatris is a key focus. While the product's trajectory is promising, Davison explains that Shield has been grappling with the challenge of drug reimbursements in the US, leading to the incurring of some costs. However, plans are underway to assist doctors in navigating this system, with a view to securing a higher average drug price. Davison suggests that Shield's ability to increase that average price will be a "key metric going forward." He concludes by saying that "the trajectory is going extremely well, [they' really just want to get the pricing issue sorted now and it should be a great story." Davison's research note is available on the Proactive website as is a interview with Shield Therapeutics' CEO Greg Madison.

Recharge Resources Receives Excellent Core Porosity Results for Pocitos One Lithium Brine Project

Recharge Resources Ltd.

Vancouver, BC - TheNewswire - October 5, 2023 - Recharge Resources Ltd. ("Recharge" or the "Company") (RR:CSE) (RECHF:OTC) (SL5:Frankfurt) is delighted to announce the Company has received very favourable porosity and permeability results from the core analysis conducted by Core Laboratorie s in Australia from its Lithium Brine Project, Pocitos One in Salta, Argentina. The results will be input into the resource estimate calculations currently being prepared by WSP Australia as announced on July 24 th, 2023. In addition the core from 2018 holes PO1 and PO2 are being relogged by our geologists. Results Click Image To View Full Size Table 1. Core laboratories final results from 7 cores tested The value of effective porosity over 5% is acceptable and higher than 10% is exceptional at these depths and shows the sediments are not compacted at depth possibly containing a significant amount of brine (defined as porosity). Based on the porosity characteristics by depth, due to the presence of secondary pores, stratigraphic static pressure, and other factors, porosity shows fluctuations with increasing depth. Generally speaking we will observe higher rates in bore holes than the laboratory. Additional work will be done using data and applying Darcy’s Law to determine the flow rate (also known as permeability) through the uncompacted sediments containing halite and fractures. The primary goal in pore assessment is to quantify these pores, not just in terms of shape and size, but how they contribute to the overall fabric of the wet clays and its ability to transmit lithium bearing brines, and the bulk physical properties of the clay/halite sediments. Given the results and extreme flow rates from drill holes 1,2 and 3 at Pocitos we look forward to more positive results. Porosity Work has been done on similar clay siltstone and sand sediments and the graph Figure 1 shows the transmission and grain size relativity.

David Greenway, President, and CEO commented, “I am excited to see things continue to develop positively for the Pocitos Lithium Brine Project. We are pushing forward on all fronts with our inaugural NI 43-101, a completed MT geophysics survey, a pending drill program, and a planned upcoming NI 43-101 resource estimate. The recently completed MT survey shows us exactly where the conductive brines containing lithium have been concentrating. These developments should make for an exciting next period for Recharge and its stakeholders at the Pocitos Project.” About Pocitos Lithium Brine Project The Pocitos 1 Project is located approximately 10km from the township of Pocitos where there is gas, electricity, and accommodation. Pocitos 1 is approximately 800 hectares and is accessible by road. Collective exploration totals over US$2.0 million developing the project, including surface sampling, trenching, TEM and MT geophysics and drilling three wells that had outstanding brine flow results. Locations for immediate follow up drilling have already been designed and identified for upcoming exploration. Lithium values of 169 ppm from drill hole 3 packer test assayed from laboratory analysis conducted by Alex Stewart were recorded during the project’s December 2022 drill campaigns. A double packer sampling system in HQ Diamond drill holes were drilled to a depth of up to 409 metres. The flow of brine was observed to continue for more than five hours. All holes had exceptional brine flow rates. A NI 43-101 report has been released on the Pocitos 1 project. Recharge is awaiting the completion of the process engineering work to be completed by Ekosolve Ltd to produce and assay the lithium carbonate being produced, where extraction was above 94% of the contained lithium in the brine i.e. 158.86ppm of lithium would have been recovered from 169ppm. WSP Australia is waiting on the relogging of the cores to be completed before it delivers the Company’s maiden resource estimate at Pocitos 1 that will result in an update of the NI 43-101 report completed by QP Phillip Thomas in June 2023.

Shield Therapeutics "couldn't be more pleased" with Viatris collaboration

Shield Therapeutics PLC

Shield Therapeutics PLC (AIM:STX, OTCQX:SHIEF) CEO Greg Madison speaks to Thomas Warner after a busy week for the commercial stage pharmaceutical company, which included the release of its interim results and the announcement of a major fundraise. He highlights the success of the fundraise, which comprised US$20 million from a new senior debt facility as well as an equity fundraise (split between a share placing, a subscription and an offering to retail investors) that brought in an additional US$6 million. He explains that the new funding is going to be put to use in "paying off an existing loan, increasing our working capital needs and then certainly some commercial investments to accelerate the curve that we're seeing here." The curve he describes is the marked increase in demand for Shield's Accrufer product, which is a stable, non-salt based oral therapy for adults with iron deficiency that is designed to avoid some of the unwanted side-effects of conventional iron tablets. He says he "can't speak highly enough about the dedication and passion of [his] team at Shield, but also about our partner Viatris... we made an excellent choice... we couldn't be more pleased with the partnership and the collaboration we're seeing."

Bradda Head Lithium Limited

Bradda Head Lithium Limited (AIM:BHL, OTCQB:BHLIF, TSX-V:BHLI) executive chairman Ian Stalker speaks to Thomas Warner from Proactive London after the exploration company announced an updated mineral resource estimate for its Basin Project in Arizona. The new resource estimate is 17 million tonnes in the indicated category at 940 parts per million (ppm) carrying 85,000t LCE (lithium carbonate) and 210 million tonnes in the inferred category at 900 ppm, carrying 1 million tonnes of LCE. The figures have triggered a payment of $2.5 million from the Lithium Royalty Company (LRC). Stalker explains that the money has helped consolidate Bradda Head Lithium's financial position to such an extent that there is no imminent need to raise funds. He adds that the company has so far explored only a small proportion of the total 41 square kilometre package, indicating significant growth potential. International mining consultancy firm SRK, a renowned consultancy engineering group, has confirmed the robustness of the numbers so far. The next milestone is achieving 2.5 million tonnes of LCE, which would result in another $3 million payment. Additionally, Stoker touched on their San Domingo pegmatite project, highlighting its potential and the ongoing drilling activities saying its there that Bradda Head is "chasing to some extent the dream". He also mentioned the recruitment of a new CEO and hinted at upcoming positive news for the company. Contact Details Proactive UK Ltd +44 20 7989 0813 uk@proactiveinvestors.com
