From East And West: Asia Broadband’s Payment Gateway For The Future?

Asia Broadband, Inc.

The Bosphorus Bridge in Turkey was a marvel when it was completed in 1973. The largest suspension bridge outside of America at the time, it was also the first to cross the famed Dardanelles Strait and unite the continents of Europe and Asia. To this day known as the First Bridge in the city of Istanbul, this bridge is still a gateway between the East and the West, and it continues to capture the imagination with its promise of adventure and discovery. Asia Broadband Inc. (OTC: AABB) is launching a new gateway, one that it says will not just connect Europe and Asia but that will connect consumers and businesses to the future of digital payment. Asia Broadband, a resource company that primarily mines and sells precious metals, is developing its new product PayAABB, a digital crypto payment platform that will help facilitate the expanding financial options brought about by the rise of transactions in alternate currencies. The Gateway Integrating AABB’s Crypto Platform PayAABB is a product developed by Asia Broadband as part of its growing integrated crypto platform. A company already strongly established in the physical gold mining industry, Asia Broadband has now established itself in the crypto market. Over a year ago it launched its own crypto wallet — the AABB Wallet — to privately and securely store and transfer crypto. Other crypto platforms offering wallet options include those from Coinbase Global Inc. (NASDAQ: COIN) and Exodus Movement Inc. (OTC: EXOD). Concurrently with the wallet, it created the AABB Gold Token, gold-backed, mine-to-token crypto that seeks to bring gold into the crypto future while providing crypto, a notoriously volatile commodity, with the stability of gold by tying the minimum token value to the price of bullion. In January, it initiated a cryptocurrency exchange, the AABB Exchange, where crypto can be privately and securely traded. Asia Broadband describes its new product as engaging with the “future of payments.” Almost a quarter of small to medium-sized businesses (SMBs) now accept or are looking to accept crypto payments, according to a new survey, and this is part of a significant trend toward the digitalization of currency and payment. Asia Broadband is leading the charge into this new payment domain with its upcoming product PayAABB. As Asia Broadband’s next step in its integrated crypto platform, PayAABB is a digital means for customers to pay businesses in crypto. Available both on and offline, when launched the PayAABB gateway will sync all of Asia Broadband’s crypto products into a unified whole. Payments can be made in over 400 cryptocurrencies, and by using an automatic transfer through the AABB Exchange system, businesses will be able to accept payment as one stablecoin. PayAABB will offer customers significant payment flexibility. Payments can be made in a variety of ways, including over email or text messaging or QR code as well as through a social messenger or e-commerce site. The gateway will also be an attractive option for businesses, as it has no third-party fee, includes a high level of security including Google Authenticator and Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) certificate for encrypted transactions and features essentially irreversible transactions. PayAABB will also bolster Asia Broadband’s existing crypto products. It will expand options for the AABB Wallet, as the wallet is soon to include a merchant application program interface (API) for sellers. This will allow merchants to make business-to-customer (B2C) and business-to-business (B2B) transactions as well as set up loyalty programs and other initiatives that maximize crypto accessibility. Additionally, the payment gateway will increase the versatility of AABBs Exchange, which recently became newly available as a mobile app. Asia Broadband announced that AABB Exchange will be part of an exciting initiative to enter the non-fungible token (NFT) market with its proprietary digital products becoming adapted to NFT transactions, a market currently worth $40 billion. Asia Broadband’s suite of gold and crypto products are part of the company vision that ambitiously seeks “complete independence from fiat currency.” The company hopes the PayAABB gateway, when launched, will bring the company closer to this goal.

(OTC: AABB), is a high-margin resource company focused on the production, supply, and sale of precious and base metals to primarily Asian markets.

This Algorithmic Money Market System Might Be A Faster, Lower-Cost Way For Users To Lend, Borrow And Generate Yield On Their Crypto

Venus Protocol

BNB Chain is fast, low-cost and more widely used worldwide, with daily transaction volumes exceeding 2.866 million, more than double Ethereum’s 1.025 million. This is reportedly what allows Venus Protocol to offer faster, lower-cost transactions to people around the globe, possibly opening the door to DeFi to the next billion users. Venus is a lending and borrowing platform built on the Binance Smart Chain. Its goal is to enable “simple and powerful community-driven finance for the entire globe” by offering what it reports is a faster, lower-cost alternative to Ethereum-based money markets like Compound or Maker. It’s also adding new features that give users more ways to generate yield and participate in emerging decentralized finance markets. Following are a few of the things users can do on the Venus Protocol platform. What Users Can Do In The Venus Protocol’s Lending And Credit System When users supply cryptocurrencies to Venus, they can use those assets in three ways: Use the assets as collateral for a loan to borrow over 20 different cryptocurrencies. Supply liquidity to the Venus Protocol, earning an annual percentage yield (APY) in return. Mint VAI synthetic stablecoin Here Is A Quick Overview Of How Each Of Those Works For Users XVS Token Users can buy $XVS and generate yield by staking it in the Venus Protocol XVS vault to earn staking rewards. The XVS vault APR is set to a different daily emission speed each quarter depending on the previous quarter’s protocol income and the amount of XVS Tokens bought back from the market to be shared between stakers. — for example, the latest XVS vault rewards distribution is currently giving users a close to 25% annual percentage rate. The XVS Token is also the Venus Protocol Governance Token which is used to vote on the DAO’s Governance Proposals. (Venus Improvement Proposals) Taking Out A Loan Borrowers can borrow any of the supported cryptocurrencies or digital assets and stablecoins in exchange for pledging collateral. Borrowers are limited to borrowing a maximum ranging from 40% to f 80%, depending on the risk assessment for each asset and of the value of the collateral they’ve pledged. Going forward, the platform hopes to add under-collateralized loan capabilities. Venus Protocol reports that with no credit check and fast origination, borrowers can get the funding they need as soon as they need it — and with no monthly payment obligations and the ability to use the appreciation in the value of their collateral toward their loan balance, borrowers can make payments at any time. Earning Interest By Supplying Liquidity The variable APY earned for providing liquidity gives users another way to increase their yields without the risks associated with trading crypto. The protocol works on an algorithmic basis, meaning interest rates are set automatically based on the demand in a specific market. When demand is high in, say Bitcoin, the rates go up for that asset. While rates are variable, interest rates are based on the fluctuating demand for different currencies and rewards distributions can mean substantial yield — especially for those who stake the native Venus Governance token (XVS). Venus Protocol Is Built On BNB Smart Chain Decentralized financial platforms built on blockchains might be redefining the structure of money markets by removing the need for a central authority or third-party decision maker. This is lowering the barriers for borrowers and opens the door for more people to become lenders. However, many of the existing decentralized money markets are built on Ethereum, a costly and slow blockchain that comes with its own barriers to access in the form of high fees, and slow transactions — Ethereum takes 13 seconds to create a block compared to BNB chain’s three seconds — and lack of high market cap assets like Litecoin or XRP. Venus Protocol (“Venus”) is an algorithmic-based money market system designed to bring a complete decentralized finance-based lending and credit system onto Binance Smart Chain. Venus enables users to utilize their cryptocurrencies by supplying collateral to the network that may be borrowed by pledging over-collateralized cryptocurrencies. This creates a secure lending environment where the lender receives a compounded interest rate annually (APY) paid per block, while the borrower pays interest on the cryptocurrency borrowed. These interest rates are set by the protocol in a curve yield, where the rates are automated based on the demand of the specific market, such as Bitcoin. The difference of Venus from other money market protocols is the ability to use the collateral supplied to the market not only to borrow other assets but also to mint synthetic stablecoins with over-collateralized positions that protect the protocol. These synthetic stablecoins are not backed by a basket of fiat currencies but by a basket of cryptocurrencies. Venus utilizes the Binance Smart chain for fast, low-cost transactions while accessing a deep network of wrapped tokens and liquidity This post contains sponsored advertising content.

Communication Service for the Deaf Names Jessica Kennedy the New President of CSD Health

Communication Service for the Deaf

As September’s Deaf Awareness Month celebrations begin, Communication Service for the Deaf (CSD) is happy to announce that Jessica Kennedy has been named the new President of CSD Health. Kennedy has previously served as CSD’s Vice President of Legal and Compliance. The new CSD health division will be the home of all the organization’s health care initiatives, with a focus on ensuring that there is equitable healthcare access for Deaf, DeafBlind, DeafDisabled, hard-of-hearing, and late-deafened people whose daily lives are impacted by barriers to accessible communications options within the healthcare system. One of the fundamental rights belonging to every human being is access to medical care. Yet, even within the United States, deaf communities are often not afforded this dignity. Changes must be made. CSD is prioritizing the healthcare space as a top issue for advocacy and change. “We believe Jessica is the perfect person to lead our work to achieve truly accessible and equitable healthcare experiences and outcomes for our community,” said Chris Soukup, CEO of CSD. “This division will confront the challenges within the healthcare system head-on and advocate for real and lasting change.” The current system is full of barriers that deaf communities must navigate daily. Users of American Sign Language (ASL) are at a higher risk for poor health knowledge and inequitable access to medical and behavioral care in our current health system due to cultural and language barriers. For example, miscommunication when using a third-party interpreter can result in more than simple frustration-- it jeopardizes primary care. Because of this, deaf communities often have significant health disparities and are often excluded from health outreach programs and mass media healthcare messages. Deaf patients can embody a unique culture that is unfamiliar to most medical and mental healthcare providers. This lack of cultural and linguistic competency often results in higher rates of inaccurate evaluations, misdiagnoses, and inappropriate treatments. To answer these concerns, Kennedy envisions the health division advocating for equitable and accessible health reform efforts, promoting innovative and transformative ideas to strengthen health care for deaf communities, bridging access in federal and state public health emergencies, and working towards culturally responsive medical providers for our communities. “Healthcare access is critical,” Kennedy signed in ASL. “Good health is a human need that binds all humanity together. When it is not accessible, or groups get left behind, that separates us as a global community. We must and will do better." About Communication Service for the Deaf Communication Service for the Deaf (CSD) is the world's largest Deaf-led social impact organization. For more than four decades, CSD has been a leader in creating and providing accessible and innovative solutions for the Deaf community. Today, CSD continues its work to create opportunities for personal and economic growth within the Deaf community, explicitly addressing leadership and employment. For more information, please visit CSD and follow us on Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, and LinkedIn. About Jessica Kennedy Jessica Kennedy is an attorney and disability rights advocate. As the Vice President of Legal and Compliance for Communication Service for the Deaf, Inc. (CSD), Ms. Kennedy proudly served as part of a team dedicated to empowering people with disabilities. Previously, she was the Deputy General Counsel and Policy Director at MNsure, contributing to the implementation and overhaul of Minnesota’s health insurance exchange and the dynamic policy landscape that followed. Prior to MNsure, Ms. Kennedy served as an in-house attorney for the Minnesota Department of Human Services, advising on healthcare and privacy issues. She received her B.A in political science from the University of Minnesota and her J.D. from Mitchell Hamline School of Law in St. Paul. Ms. Kennedy currently serves as a board member of the Deaf and Hard of Hearing Bar Association and MNsure, as a board member representing consumers eligible for public health care program coverage.

Is Growing Awareness Of Good Oral Hygiene Driving Growth Of Electric Toothbrush Market?

Bruush Oral Care Inc.

Learn More about Bruush Oral Care Inc., by gaining access to the latest research report. The debate over whether electric or manual toothbrushes do a better job of cleaning your teeth has raged for decades. While both manual and electric toothbrushes are effective at removing plaque, powered toothbrushes often are easier for people who have dexterity issues, such as the elderly, people with disabilities or children, according to the American Dental Association (ADA). The Journal of the American Dental Association published a survey that found that 13,000 out of 16,000 patients who used an electric toothbrush reported better oral health. Still, only 36% of adults say they use an electric toothbrush, according to a report by consumer marketing analysis firm Mintel. The global electric toothbrush market size was estimated to be worth $4.3 billion in 2022 and projected to increase to just over $6 billion by 2027, according to Statista. The market is being driven by the prevalence of periodontal diseases and heightened awareness of the advantages of electric toothbrushes. Electric toothbrush bristles vibrate or rotate to remove plaque buildup from teeth and gums. There are pros and cons to an electric toothbrush. On the plus side, they’re easy to use; most have timers so users can tell whether they’ve brushed their teeth for the full two minutes dentists recommend, and some people feel that their teeth are cleaner. “If you choose an electric toothbrush, make sure the toothbrush is comfortable to hold and easy to use,” said Thomas Salinas, a prosthodontist with the Mayo Clinic in Rochester, Minnesota. “Whether you choose an electric toothbrush or a manual toothbrush, remember that what’s most important is daily brushing and flossing.” Electric toothbrushes also may generate less waste. The ADA recommends replacing your toothbrush every three months, and with an electric toothbrush, you’re just replacing the brush head — not the entire device as you would with the manual version. What Are The Drawbacks? However, electric toothbrushes are more expensive than their manual counterparts; they require charging, and they’re difficult to travel with. And replacing brush heads can be expensive. Replacement brush heads for Sonicare can cost as much as $43 for a three-pack, and the price of Oral-B line of brush heads reaches as high as $40 for a three-pack, depending on the model. What Is A Solution? An example of a more affordable alternative is the Brüush (NASDAQ: BRSH) electric toothbrush, which comes in five colors. Like Blue Apron Holdings Inc. (NYSE: APRN) and Stitch Fix Inc. (NASDAQ: SFIX), which send their food and clothing products to customers who sign up, Brüush’s subscription model makes it easy for consumers to stay on top of replacing their brush heads every three months as dentists recommend. If you sign up for a subscription, Brüush will send you three new brush heads every six months for $18 — just $6 per brush head. The Brüush toothbrush has six cleaning modes for every type of brusher — daily, white, gentle, gum, max, and tongue. Brüush’s electric toothbrush kit sells for $79 and includes the electric toothbrush, three brush heads, and a USB power adapter and charger. The Brüush lithium-ion battery lasts for four weeks on a single charge, and the compact magnetic case makes traveling with the device convenient. Visit Brüush’s website to learn more about the company and its products. About Bruush Oral Care Inc. Bruush Oral Care Inc. is on a mission to inspire confidence through brighter smiles and better oral health. Founded in 2018, Brüush is an oral care company that is disrupting the space by reducing the barriers between consumers and access to premium oral care products. The Company is an e-commerce business with a product portfolio that currently consists of a sonic-powered electric toothbrush kit and brush head refills. Brüush has developed a product to make upgrading to an electric brush appealing with three core priorities in mind: (i) a high-quality electric toothbrush at a more affordable price than a comparable electric toothbrush from the competition; (ii) a sleek, countertop-friendly design; and (iii) a convenient brush head refill subscription program that eliminates the frustrating experience of purchasing replacement brush heads at the grocery/drug store. The Company is rooted in building a brand that creates relevant experiences and content, with the goal of becoming the go-to oral care brand for millennials and Generation Z.For more information on Bruush Oral Care Inc visit https://bruush.com.

Volatus Aerospace to Remotely Fly Multiple Drones in Las Vegas from Canada

Volatus Aerospace Corp.

At the Commercial UAV Expo in Las Vegas, the world’s leading commercial drone trade show and conference, Volatus Aerospace Corp. (TSXV: VOL) (OTCQB: VLTTF) ("Volatus" or "the Company") will demonstrate the current capabilities of remotely piloted operations by flying multiple drones from its remote operations center at the Lake Simcoe regional airport in Ontario on Tuesday, September 6 at the Henderson Equestrian Park North during their annual drone demo day. During the 20-minute flight, Richard Podolski, VP of Flight Operations for Volatus Aerospace, will remotely operate the drones from the Volatus Remote Operations Center in Canada including pre-flight authorizations, takeoff, and landing, much in the same way a pilot would operate a drone from the Company’s AERIEPORT nesting station.
