The Wild West Crypto Show Addresses Decoupling of Crypto Markets

On episode 110 of the Wild West Crypto Show – ‘BTC and Crypto Market Maintaining Coupling?’ – show hosts Drew Taylor and Brent Bates turned their attention to the decoupling of the cryptocurrency markets. Historically, the value of crypto assets has often followed stock prices, climbing when the S&P and DJI go up and falling when those indices decline. Recently, however, this direct relationship appears to be heading for divorce or, at least, a temporary separation, which could be a good thing for bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies. If crypto assets go their own way, they may better serve as the independent asset class many proponents hope they might one day become.
Bo Polny returned to the show with more remarkable prognostications on the markets, and Jonathan Keim, communications director of CryptoCurrencyWire, appeared with his usual weekly news update.
First up in Keim’s update was the news that the Crypto.com Visa card program received a green light in Canada (http://nnw.fm/fyp9N). Crypto.com started life as Monaco, a company offering a cryptocurrency-funded Visa debit card. Now, after a rebranding, the company will be known as the Crypto.com MCO platform and will offer the MCO Visa card, which links Visa cards with cryptocurrency accounts. The integration allows users to easily spend their cryptocurrency on everyday purchases, wherever Visa is accepted – and Visa is everywhere. The card network is the largest in the world, with more than 40 million merchants and 336 million cardholders.
Next up, Keim shared the news release ‘Huobi Rebrands Its Derivatives Exchange as Crypto Derivatives Surge in Popularity’ (http://nnw.fm/fSKh9). Headquartered in Singapore, Huobi is a cryptocurrency exchange that has been offering a variety of derivative products. The rebranding has been prompted by increased interest in crypto-derivative products such as futures, forwards, swaps and options, from both large institutional and smaller retail investors. Now called Huobi Futures, the exchange’s coin-margined, perpetual contracts have experienced a surge in trading since their launch in late March, already topping the market in cumulative trading volume. On May 12, the total 24-hour, coin-margin perpetual trading volume on Huobi Futures rose above $5.46 billion, outperforming by far the exchange’s closest competitor.
Keim completed his round-up with the headline ‘World’s Leading Crypto Payments Processor CoinPayments Announces Strategic Partnership with Shopify’ (http://nnw.fm/9hcKs). This collaboration, much like the MCO Visa card project, has the potential to markedly increase adoption of cryptocurrencies.
“Under the terms of the partnership, CoinPayments will now be a visible payment option for merchants on the Shopify platform and will make cryptocurrency transactions easier and more accessible while reducing transaction fees,” the announcement stated. “Vendors will now get paid faster in any of the 1,800 cryptocurrencies supported by CoinPayments while gaining access to untapped markets globally. This partnership further enables cross-border payments, allowing merchants to eliminate the hassle of working with multiple payment processors across different jurisdictions.”

Energy Fuels Inc. (NYSE American: UUUU) (TSX: EFR) Enlists Rare Earth Experts in Developing Commercial, Technical Strategies

  • UUUU has finalized consulting agreements with two rare earth element industry experts
  • Constantine Karayannopoulos and Brock O’Kelley will assist Energy Fuels as it focuses on entering rare earth space in the United States
  • Energy Fuels seeking to leverage existing U.S. facility to produce high-value rare earth concentrates
Energy Fuels Inc. (NYSE American: UUUU) (TSX: EFR), the largest producer of uranium and the leading conventional producer of vanadium in the United States, has announced that it has finalized agreements with Constantine Karayannopoulos and Brock O’Kelley, two rare earth element (REE) industry experts, to consult with the company in the development and implementation of commercial and technical REE strategies for the new U.S. REE program (http://nnw.fm/z82zF). The company previously announced that it is entering the U.S. rare earths space by potentially leveraging its existing White Mesa Mill in Utah to produce high-value rare earth concentrates. If successful, the mill would play a critical role in restoring a U.S. rare earths supply chain.
“Energy Fuels is extremely excited to bring Constantine Karayannopoulos and Brock O’Kelley on board to advance our entry into the rare earth space in the U.S.,” UUUU President and CEO Mark S. Chalmers stated in a news release. “Over the past year or so, Energy Fuels has been actively evaluating this rare earth opportunity. We are quickly coming to the conclusion that the White Mesa Mill may be an ideal U.S. facility to process rare earth element ore streams and produce rare earth concentrates. Mr. Karayannopoulos and Mr. O’Kelley will assist Energy Fuels in the commercial and technical aspects of this endeavor.”
A chemical engineer by training with more than 25 years of experience in the rare earth industry, Karayannopoulos currently serves as chairman of Neo Performance Materials, one of the world’s leading producers of rare earth engineered and magnetic materials, with integrated supply chains across the globe. O’Kelley played a critical part in the operation of the Mountain Pass, California, rare earth processing facility for several decades. Both are industry veterans with extensive knowledge of REE processing facility design, start-up, operations and downstream value-added manufacturing of advanced REE products.
The consulting agreements represent Energy Fuel’s commitment to pursue the commercially viable REE production capacity in the United States. UUUU is currently evaluating minor modifications to its licenses and operations designed to enable the processing of uranium- and thorium-bearing rare earth ores at the White Mesa Mill facility in Utah. Removal and recovery of the uranium and thorium from rare earth ores is central to Energy Fuels’ value proposition, as many rare earth separation and recovery facilities are not able to handle uranium or thorium from a technical or regulatory standpoint. While adding this component to its business operations, Energy Fuels intends to continue its focus on uranium mining and production operations, and simply enhancing that production by recovering the contained uranium from REE ores for sale into the nuclear fuel cycle in a manner similar to how China’s rare earth and nuclear fuel industries work together.
“Energy Fuels looks forward to working with these two industry veterans in developing our REE business in the U.S. and in advancing our relationships in this sector,” added Chalmers. “Between Mr. Karayannopoulos, Mr. O’Kelley, and ANSTO of Sydney, Australia, we believe Energy Fuels is truly assembling a topflight team capable of building a successful U.S. REE business.”
Based in Lakewood, Colorado, Energy Fuels holds three of America’s key uranium production centers: the Nichols Ranch (ISR) project in Wyoming, the Alta Mesa ISR Project in Texas and the White Mesa Mill in Utah – the only conventional uranium mill operating in the United States today with a licensed capacity of more than 8 million pounds of U3O8 per year. With an asset portfolio that boasts more uranium production facilities, in-ground resources, production capacity and experienced personnel than any other producer, Energy Fuels is in a unique position to maintain its position as the leading producer of uranium in an era of viable transformation of the U.S. nuclear industry.

National Storm Recovery Inc. (NSRI) Ideally Positioned in Growing Billion-Dollar Industry

  • Restoration industry worth an estimated $210 billion, expected to increase in value with the increasing number of natural disasters
  • An average of 15 billion-dollar disasters occurred each year from 2015 through 2018, while the average prior to that was 6.2 events per year
  • With more than 40 years of experience, National Storm Recovery is a seasoned provider of storm/disaster recovery services
Recent studies indicate that the restoration industry as a whole is worth an estimated $210 billion (http://nnw.fm/yV0OJ) and is expected to only increase in value with the increasing intensity and number of natural disasters. With experts predicting that the disaster recovery and restoration sector will only continue its upward trajectory, National Storm Recovery Inc. (OTC: NSRI) looks to be in an ideal position to ride the wave and benefit from the storm and disaster recovery solutions it provides.
A recently updated CNBC report focusing on the disaster recovery and property restoration noted that about 74% of restoration companies experienced sales growth; the same article (http://nnw.fm/DO8cz) stated that “with some predicting wilder weather in the future due to climate change, the horizon [for the industry] looks limitless.”
Costly natural disasters have been proven to be on the uptick. A second CNBC article (http://nnw.fm/mH5cZ) reported that “over each of the past three years, an average of 15 billion-dollar disasters have occurred, while the average for 1980-2018 was just 6.2 events per year. The number of billion-dollar disasters is clearly trending upward, writes Adam B. Smith, a climate scientist with the NOAA.”
With more than 40 years of experience, National Storm Recovery is a seasoned provider of storm/disaster recovery services. The company, through its subsidiaries, provides tree services, debris hauling, biomass recycling and mulch manufacturing. NSRI’s satisfied customers come from the governmental, residential and commercial sectors.
Headquartered in Jacksonville, Florida, NSRI and its subsidiaries provide expert and professional tree services, debris hauling, biomass recycling and mulch-manufacturing options to governmental, residential and commercial customers. NSRI’s solutions, provided by its Sustainable Green Team, are rooted in sound principles designed to benefit the environment. NSRI offers the best equipment and time-proven strategies, along with an unwavering commitment to customer service.
The CNBC article noted that “investors may find the disaster-recovery sector highly profitable but hard to break into unless they are franchisees, mostly because there are few publicly traded options.” NSRI may offer an attractive option for investors looking at the promising future of disaster recovery and restoration.
NSRSI’s commitment is to environmentally beneficial solutions to tree and storm-waste disposal (http://nnw.fm/4tkWN). For investors, the company plans to expand its operations through a combination of organic growth, including its partnership with a nationally recognized waste disposal company and via strategic acquisitions. NSRI’s next-level experience with mulch manufacturing, treatment and caring for trees sets it on the right course for sustained growth.

Exro Technologies Inc. (CSE: XRO) (OTCQB: EXROF) CEO Set to Bring Breakthrough Technology to Global Markets

  • Sue Ozdemir has 20-plus years experience in electric motor industry
  • CEO focusing on advancing company’s through commercialization with existing strategic partners; also expanding customer base for new opportunities
Canada-based Exro Technologies Inc. (CSE: XRO) (OTCQB: EXROF), one of the world’s proven leaders in the innovation of electric motors, has seen impressive success since the appointment of new CEO Sue Ozdemir late last year. Recognized as an accomplished executive and industry expert with more than two decades of accomplishments in the electric motor industry, including nine years at General Electric, Ozdemir has identified clear objectives for Exro with actual delivery on five major signed agreements since she joined the company.
Ozdemir was a passionate leader in the C-suite of GE, where she proved to be a leader in the innovation and manufacturing of electric motors. Ozdemir spent nine years at General Electric, serving as both CCO and CEO of GE’s Small Industrial Motors Division, overseeing the division’s North American and international markets, and ultimately building the division into a $160 million enterprise.
Ozdemir was also part of the executive team that managed the sale of the division to Wolong Electric, China’s largest motor manufacturer, in July 2018. After successfully completing the sale, Wolong retained her to lead the company’s GE motor division and drive growth towards becoming the number one motor manufacturer in the world.
In the statement announcing Ozdemir’s appointment, Exro noted that its new CEO would focus her passion on advancing the company’s breakthrough technology to enhance the performance of electric motors and power trains with a rapid commercialization strategy, working with existing strategic partners while expanding the customer base for new opportunities (http://nnw.fm/9yr4B).
In a letter sent to shareholders six months after her appointment (http://nnw.fm/STNa1), Ozdemir noted that “these past few months have been exciting and rewarding as we have seen many developments as we execute our commercialization phase. The team and I are very excited about our future, and I would like to thank you all for your continued support.” Ozdemir added that her “commitment is to close eight strategic partnerships by the end of 2020.”
Exro has inked five partnerships or agreements in key mobility sectors. These agreements include Motorino Electric Bike, Mexico’s motor producer Potencia, e-boat manufacturer Templar Marine, Finland’s e-snowmachine manufacture Aurora Snowmobile and CleanSeed, which is electrifying heavy farm equipment.
“They demonstrate the scalability and versatility of the Exro technology,” Ozdemir stated. “I am very confident that we will close all eight deals this year. The team is working hard to ensure the agreements are strategic and the best fit for our resources and financing. There are ongoing discussions with customers small and large in a variety of mobility applications. We continue to evaluate customer-provided data, which helps us to determine the best fit for Exro and our partners.”
Upon joining the company, Ozdemir stated the following:“Exro is ready to work with strategic partners to utilize our technology to enhance performance and provide solutions for energy management. Clean energy is important to the future of our world. I believe that we are at the cusp of breakthroughs that will change the way we think about the industry. Energy consumption is sometimes taken for granted, but electricity powers so much of what we do, and it’s important that we continue to support breakthroughs that could improve the world for our future generations.”
Exro facilitates the transition to clean energy by providing products and services to manufacturers to increase the efficiency and reliability of electric motors and power trains. Exro’s patented technology enhances energy systems by dynamically sensing and adapting variable inputs and optimally matching them to desired outputs, creating measurable performance gains and extended lifespan. Exro allows the applications to achieve more while consuming less energy.
The widespread applications of the technology apply to optimizing the performance of all variable torque applications. As a company with exclusive technology that brings lucrative benefits in multiple industries, XRO is an attractive opportunity for investors seeking to leverage groundbreaking technology applied in a high growth market.

The Movie Studio Inc.’s (MVES) Unique Business Model Leverages Global Shift to Movie Streaming as Theatres Brace for Severe Losses

  • Demand for video-streaming increased as result of lockdowns connected to COVID-19
  • Worldwide box office losses estimated in the billions
  • Major studios moving to on-demand movie releases as theatres remain closed
  • MVES an established independent movie studio with proven growth strategy, digital revenue model
  • VOD one of the only industries experiencing increased demand, expected to reach $120.91 billion by 2025
While government-imposed lockdowns have crippled the film industry, video-streaming services have seen increased demand (http://nnw.fm/y4Iqb). The Movie Studio Inc. (OTC: MVES), a vertically integrated motion picture production company, is positioned to benefit from this shift by continuing to acquire, develop, produce and distribute independent motion pictures globally via subscription and advertiser video on demand (SVOD/AVOD), over the top (OTT) platforms, foreign sales and various media devices.
The already-fragile entertainment industry took a substantial hit as a result of the forced closure of theatres, with losses estimated in the billions (http://nnw.fm/1JTYn). Besides the rapidly declining numbers at the box office, blockbuster movies were postponed, production schedules were shifted globally, and related industries took a massive hit as audiences hit zero almost overnight.
With consumers being forced to stay at home, studios may continue to be forced to cancel theatrical releases, premiering content online instead through VoD streaming platforms. Disney (NYSE: DIS) led the trend by releasing Frozen 2 on its Disney+ streaming service three months early (http://nnw.fm/a0Rs7), in addition to moving up the digital release of the latest Star Wars episode (http://nnw.fm/3scMH). Though the pandemic’s fallout seems to spell doom for in-person entertainment options, these major shifts in how consumers access their entertainment are creating substantial opportunities for on-demand service providers.
MVES is positioned to leverage this industry shift through its proven revenue-maximizing growth strategy that leverages technological innovation, allowing the company to easily pivot and adapt to the emerging trends of the industry. Through the use of upgraded 4K resolution, along with the purchase of legacy film libraries and the re-monetizing of VOD streaming platforms, MVES is positioned to cost-effectively produce and distribute content of high visual quality similar to its latest releases currently available on Showtime, Comcast and Amazon Prime.
Powered by a digital business model, the company’s revenue stream includes motion picture aggregation and distribution through a direct server access platform that will distribute content globally using a system based on ‘geo-fractured’ territories. MVES’s app, currently available in the Apple App Store and the Google Play Store, releases parts of a film called ‘MovieSodes’ among its other features. A component of of the company’s innovative recurring revenue strategy, the movie is filmed in parts and then later joined together in post-production to create a final product. Besides streaming content, the app also offers an “audition to submission” feature that lets users submit auditions for roles in upcoming movies, driving user engagement and content promotion.
The trend toward online streaming is far from new as the VoD industry enjoyed significant gains prior to COVID-19 as a result of ‘cord-cutting’ – the global phenomenon of consumers canceling multichannel cable or satellite services in favor of internet competitors, resulting in millions lost in 2019 alone (http://nnw.fm/fy4K6). The lockdowns and their associated negative economic effects are simply amplifying this trend, making VoD one of the only industries experiencing increased demand during this time with a valuation expected to reach $120.91 billion by 2025 (http://nnw.fm/V2pG7).
As the only major independent studio that manages its own in-house marketing and distribution department, MVES further verifies its revenue model by producing micro-budget motion picture content with substantially high production value through the use of 4K technology. The innovative use of technology fuels MVES’s unique production process, allowing the company to significantly reduce expenses while allowing for a high return on investment with each new release.
Originally founded in 1961 as Destination Television Inc., the company changed its name to The Movie Studio Inc. in 2012. Headquartered in Fort Lauderdale, Florida, MVES is ideally positioned to quickly benefit from the changing landscape of video-based entertainment.

PowerBand Solutions Inc. (TSX.V: PBX) (OTCQB: PWWBF) (FRA: 1ZVA) Offers Easy Way to Get Great Deals on Vehicles, Using Smartphones

  • Industry experts say sales of both new and used vehicles have dropped by more than 50 percent at the end of April 2020 compared to the same time in 2019
  • Increasingly motivated to sell, car makers and dealers are offering special deals to entice buyers, including zero-percent financing on multiple models
  • PowerBand Solutions’ cloud-based platform helps users get access to such deals online by streamlining vehicle sale interactions among participants and eliminating unnecessary middlemen
With 26 million Americans having lost their jobs in the wake of the coronavirus outbreak and another 25% expecting to lose theirs in the near future, people are hesitant to make or even plan for making major purchases such a new car, but, as Warren Buffett said, “Be greedy when others are fearful and fearful when others are greedy.”
The truth is, there has been no better time to land a deal on a new car than now, according to a MarketWatch report (http://nnw.fm/60t1F), and PowerBand Solutions Inc. (TSX.V: PBX) (OTCQB: PWWBF) (FRA: 1ZVA) is there to facilitate any transaction safely and swiftly via its cloud-based auto trading platform, which can be used from smartphones and other digital devices, from any location. That’s good news in the social distancing brought on by the pandemic.
Buying a car may normally includes test drives and multiple trips to the dealership, but social distancing rules imposed by the pandemic have made the customary practices impossible, leaving car makers and dealerships struggling. According to one estimate provided by Cox Automotive, new car sales were down 59 percent year over year and used car sales were down 53 percent at the end of April (http://nnw.fm/SYX7v).
As a result, both auto makers and dealers are very motivated to sell and are already offering special deals and online options to entice buyers. Companies like Chevrolet are offering zero percent financing, which means you’ll only be paying off the principal of a car loan. Hyundai also has a no-interest 84-month offer and deferred payments for four months. Fiat Chrysler Automobiles has a zero percent financing, 84-month offer on some 2019 and 2020 vehicles. Kia has a zero percent financing for 75 months offer on certain models, according to the MarketWatch report. To better understand the significance of these offers, it should be noted that car loan rates were between five and six percent as recently as Q4 2019 (http://nnw.fm/aZl8Z).
While many dealerships are open, consumers are beginning to demand more ecommerce options in the name of convenience and in light of the restrictions enforced by the pandemic. Ecommerce is already changing the ways in which manufacturers, dealers, and digital car sellers offer customers new and used cars. The compound annual growth of digital sales was 7.61% from 2015-19 compared to 1.73% for total sales. According to the Digital Commerce 360 Online Vehicle Shopper 2019 survey, 49% of buyers are willing to purchase a new vehicle entirely online, while Frost & Sullivan estimates that consumers will be able to purchase as many as 1.3 million vehicles online annually as soon as 2035 (http://nnw.fm/My8oz).
PowerBand Solutions’ cloud-based auto transaction platform successfully addresses this growing need to sell and buy vehicles online. Developed by a team of experienced automotive, technology and finance experts, the platform was created around the core belief that consumers preferred to conduct automotive transactions online and avoid interactions with unnecessary middlemen. The platform allows consumers to sell, buy, lease, auction and finance vehicles with never-seen-before simplicity, speed and cost-efficiency from their smartphones or other devices, irrespective of their location.
The company is working on commercializing its platform to consumers and automotive dealers and to this end, it has secured a more than $2 million investment from Texas-based D&P Holdings Inc. – one of the largest administrators of automotive warranty and insurance products in the United States, working with more than 850 dealerships nationwide (http://nnw.fm/1kAng).
The company’s cloud-based platform will soon be advertised across the United States via a partnership with Source Digital, a pioneer in immersive commerce through the use of digital media platforms and video content on the internet. This unique campaign will use Source’s patented technology to promote PowerBand’s platform inside popular video content with various channels and influencers in the U.S. (http://nnw.fm/1WEff).
