Jewish News Columnist: Anti-Defamation League(ADL) Smeared NLPC

NLPC

In an opinion piece distributed by the Jewish News Service titled, “When Will the ADL Start Fighting Antisemitism on the Left?, Elle Krasne-Cohen has come to the defense of National Legal and Policy Center (NLPC). She points to the Anti-Defamation League’s embrace of causes like Black Lives Matter and juxtaposes it with an incident closer to home for NLPC: More recently, the ADL smeared two mainstream policy organizations—the National Center for Public Policy Research (NCPPR) and the National Legal and Policy Center (NLPC)—accusing them without evidence of antisemitism. The ADL claimed that mere criticism of “globalism” or “globalist organizations,” including the antisemitic United Nations, is an “antisemitic dog whistle.” Krasne-Cohen continues: The NCPPR and NLPC are mainstream organizations, neither of which, to my knowledge, has displayed antipathy towards Jews or any other racial or religious minority. The smear was in the form of a posting on the ADL website on November 21 titled “Conspiracy Theories, Some With Antisemitic Roots, Crop Up in 2023 Shareholder Proposals.” The post appeared only six weeks after the October 7 Hamas terrorist attack, while antisemitic incidents and demonstrations were exploding worldwide. Why the ADL would devote time and resources to attacking NLPC, which has a long history of fighting antisemitism, was completely baffling to us. Equally baffling, the hit piece was dropped as the Thanksgiving holiday was getting underway. It was almost as if the ADL wanted the story out but didn’t want anyone to report it. The strategy, if it existed, worked because no one else covered it. Even more weirdly, the post itself carried this all-purpose disclaimer that tended to negate the impression that every other word of the post was calculated to create: At this time, there is no evidence to suggest that either organization’s agents espouse overt antisemitism, or that these proposals were filed with antisemitic intentions. So what is going on here? What was behind the attempted smear of NLPC and our ally, the National Center for Public Policy Research? Could it be that the ADL just doesn’t like us filing shareholder proposals, a form of activism dominated for many years by the Left? Krasne-Cohen and a number of other Jewish commentators and activists are making this case that the ADL, under the “leadership” of former Obama White House staffer Jonathan Greenblatt, has devolved into an ideological and partisan tool. ADL’s hit and run on NLPC was actually quite clever. Even if no one paid any attention to it when it was published, whoever wrote it (the piece is unsigned) sought to plant it on the internet for anyone to find for years to come. Any journalist seeking to discredit us can now simply describe NLPC as a “group that, according to the ADL, promotes antisemitic conspiracy theories.” It was a nice try but it is not going to work. NLPC’s track record of fighting antisemitism over many years is just too strong. Indeed, while the ADL has been sanitizing antisemitism by partnering with the likes of Al Sharpton, NLPC has been consistent, resolute and effective. To wit: Ben & Jerry’s - When the Unilever subsidiary Ben and Jerry’s announced in 2021 that it would end ice cream sales in “Occupied Palestinian Territory,” NLPC swung into action, launching the StopBenandJerrys.org website. In September 2021, NLPC filed a Complaint with the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) against Anuradha Mittal, the anti-Israel chair of the Ben & Jerry’s board of directors. A few weeks later, she was named 2021 “Antisemite of the Year” by the website StopAntisemitism.org. Mittal appeared to have violated laws governing self-dealing by acting as a trustee of the Ben & Jerry’s Foundation while approving donations to her personal nonprofit where she is executive director taking a full-time salary. Also, the president of Ben & Jerry’s charitable foundation, Jeff Furman, steered more than $100,000 of its funds to his own nonprofit organization. In the wake of October 7 Hamas attack, Flaherty wrote an op-ed titled, “Unilever, Ice Cream and Antisemitism.” Unilever Divestment - NLPC was a proponent of Unilever divestment efforts in New York, New Jersey, North Carolina and Virginia. From the September 16, 2021, New York Times: “We are doing this because somebody has to hold the independent board of Ben & Jerry’s accountable for their anti-Semitic use of their platform and company resources,” said Tom Anderson, a director of the National Legal and Policy Center. NLPC collaborated with activist investor Michael Asher in support of Unilever divestment by New York State and New York City. In Virginia, Flaherty met with State Attorney General Jason Miyares and urged him to seek divestment of state funds from Unilever. In North Carolina, NLPC asked Treasurer Dale Folwell requesting divestiture of Unilever holdings in public pension funds. Black Lives Matter & Patrisse Cullors - As a result of original NLPC research, Black Lives Matter Global Network Foundation co-founder Patrisse Cullors was forced to resign from the group in 2021. NLPC’s allegations, detailed in a Complaint to the IRS, related to her purchase of four pieces of real estate, and apparent self-dealing and inurnment. NLPC has also emphasized Cullors’ 2015 call at Harvard Law School for individuals to “step up boldly and courageously to end the imperialist project that’s called Israel.” NLPC was early in reporting about Black Lives Matter’s (BLM) links to anti-Israel groups. In 2016, Carl Horowitz, then a member of the NLPC staff, wrote a website post titled “Black Lives Matter Activists Join Anti-Israel Boycott.” Following October 7, NLPC asked Visa, Inc. to remove its BLM endorsement from its website and condemn Hamas and antisemitism. We had raised the BLM issue earlier in the year at the company’s shareholders’ meeting. NLPC had also raised the issue of Coca-Cola’s support for BLM at the company’s annual meeting. ADL’s Omar Resolution - NLPC has been a persistent critic of Reps. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, Ilhan Omar, and Rashida Talib. While we have cited financial irregularities in a Federal Election Commission complaint against Ocasio-Cortez and a House Ethics Committee complaint against Omar, NLPC has also criticized hostility to Jews by these members. In 2019, NLPC endorsed and publicized the ADL-initiated House resolution condemning Omar. See this op-ed titled “Antisemitism and Islamophobia: No Moral Equivalence” by Horowitz. Foreign Funding of U.S. Higher Education - The recent spate of on-campus antisemitic incidents has shed light an issue on foreign financial support for American colleges and universities, an issue that NLPC has investigated and publicized for several years. See this column by Charles Gasparino that extensively quotes NLPC Counsel Paul Kamenar. Al Sharpton - Whereas the present leadership of the ADL has sought to erase Sharpton’s past, NLPC will not forget his incitements in the 1991 Crown Heights riots, in which a Jew was murdered, nor will we forgive his dangerous statements, such as “If the Jews want to get it on, tell them to pin their yarmulkes back and come over to my house.” Sharpton was fined $285,000 in 2005 by the Federal Election Commission as a result of an NLPC Complaint for running an “off the books” presidential campaign. For several years, NLPC raised the issue of support for Sharpton’s National Action Network (NAN) at the shareholders’ meetings of American corporations, including PepsiCo, Anheuser-Busch and Colgate-Palmolive. Unlike the ADL, NLPC has never used the fight against antisemitism as a partisan weapon. In 2010, NLPC objected to the sponsorship of Sharpton’s National Action Network annual meeting by the Republican National Committee (RNC) and the participation of then-RNC Chairman Michael Steele. In 2009, NLPC asked former House Speaker Newt Gingrich to end his partnership with Sharpton in a campaign for “education reform.” That same year, NLPC criticized then-President George W. Bush for praising Sharpton. Jesse Jackson - In 2005, the New York Stock Exchange ended its financial support for Jackson’s Citizenship Education Fund, in response to a demand by NLPC that cited Jackson’s 1984 “hymie” and “Hymietown” comments, as well as financial improprieties involving the Fund. And if none of this is good enough for the ADL, it should be noted that NLPC has many Jewish supporters, including prominent individuals and former government officials, several of whom serve on the boards of local and national Jewish organizations. From 2001 to the time of his death in 2019, Edward M. Ackerman of Dallas was a key advisor and major donor to NLPC. His legacy is carried on today by NLPC and the Ackerman Center for Holocaust Studies at the University of Texas at Dallas. The ADL itself has partnered with the Ackerman Center. ### Founded in 1991, the National Legal and Policy Center promotes ethics in public life through research, investigation, education and legal action.

The fund, dedicated to supporting CCSD music educators by helping with the costs of private voice lessons, will culminate in this event, scheduled for Sunday, April 14 th, 2024, from 5:30 to 7:30 pm. The evening will showcase the talents of adult students from the LATOUR voice studios, LLC, in a celebration of song. In this community, there are multiple options for young singers to apply for financial assistance, though very few resources available for music teachers. The Rehart Gesner Fund fills that gap, giving deserved recognition and support to CCSD music teachers who would like to cultivate their own talent. "The overwhelming support at last year's recital left us incredibly grateful to all who donated.” said Katy Morris. “We eagerly anticipate another successful year, empowering more music teachers to nurture their talent and share their passion for music with the next generation." Reflecting on the inaugural year, we are proud to have achieved these significant milestones: Granted scholarships for private voice lessons to six CCSD music teachers Welcomed two additional voice teachers Forged a partnership with renowned Los Angeles-based laryngologist, Dr. Reena Gupta, to provide scholarship recipients with comprehensive voice examinations Sponsored five music teachers for stroboscopy sessions to assess any potential medical issues affecting their voices Supported two music teachers with additional Speech-Language Pathology (SLP) therapy following their initial examinations The Second Annual Rehart Gesner Benefit Recital will be held at a private residence on April 14 th, 2024, and will be available to view via livestream. It will feature an elevated silent auction with a number of items from local businesses, all available for bidding online beginning March 14 th, 2024. Donations are being accepted via Givebutter, with a fundraising goal of $40,000 in an effort to surpass the $35,000 donated last year. All proceeds will be used to help defray costs of private voice lessons for local music educators. ABOUT THE REHART GESNER FUND Born from a place of inspiration, the Rehart Gesner Fund is named after Latour and Morris’ grandmothers, Ruth Rehart and Lorraine Gesner, both of whom had a profound impact on the co-founders’ musical upbringing. The cause is named after them and strives to “provide opportunities to nurture the artist within.” Rehart was always present in encouraging Latour with her artistic endeavors, whether it be attending dance, flute, piano or voice recitals. Gesner, Morris’ grandmother, was her advocate in life and in music. She paid for private piano and voice lessons and attended every performance. Latour and Morris wanted to honor the memory of their grandmothers by advocating for singers the way their grandmothers advocated for them. Offering assistance to those who want to grow and nurture their talent, when they otherwise might not be able to, is the heart of their cause.

Top 7 Best ICO Crypto to Invest in 2024

Spark Metro

The cryptocurrency market has been gaining significant traction in recent years, offering investors a new and exciting way to grow their wealth. One of the key investment avenues within the crypto space is Initial Coin Offerings (ICOs) and Initial Public Offerings (IPOs). ICOs allow projects to raise funds by offering their native tokens to the public, while IPOs involve the sale of stock to raise capital for mature companies. With the potential for exponential gains, ICOs and IPOs have become popular choices for investors looking to get in early on promising projects. 2024 holds immense potential for the ICO market, as innovative projects continue to emerge with groundbreaking ideas and unique features. In this blog, we will delve into the top 7 best ICO crypto projects to invest in 2024. But before we dive into the standout projects, let's get an overview of the top ICO cryptos for the upcoming year. It is important to note that while we have conducted our own research and analysis, we always recommend doing your own research and due diligence before making any investment decisions. Understanding ICOs An ICO is a fundraising method where startups or established projects raise capital by issuing new cryptocurrencies, also known as tokens. Compared to traditional methods like venture capital, ICOs offer wider accessibility and potentially faster funding. Why Invest in ICOs? High Potential Returns: Early investors in successful ICOs can experience significant returns on their investment. Early Access: Be among the first to participate in potentially groundbreaking projects shaping the future. Weighing the Risks Volatility and Uncertainty: The crypto market is inherently volatile, leading to unpredictable price fluctuations. Regulatory Risks and Scams: The evolving regulatory landscape and potential for scams necessitate thorough research. Evaluating an ICO Team and Advisors: Look for a team with proven experience and a reputable advisory board. Whitepaper and Roadmap: A clear, detailed whitepaper outlining the project's vision and a realistic roadmap are essential. Technology and Solution: Assess the innovation and technical feasibility of the proposed solution. Community and Support: A strong community and responsive customer support foster trust and project stability. Regulatory Compliance: Understand the legal framework surrounding the ICO and ensure compliance. Top 7 Best ICO Crypto to Invest in 2024 Here are the list of Top 7 Best ICO Crypto to Invest in 2024 for maximum returns: 1. 5th Scape (5SCAPE) 2. Sponge V2 (SPONGE) 3. Scorpion Casino 4. UDAO (UDAO) 5. ScapesMania (MANIA) 6. Minetrix (BTCMTX) 7. BlastUP (BLP) 1. 5th Scape (5SCAPE): This project aims to build the future of AR and VR gaming, with plans to develop VR games, an industry-leading VR headset, and an AR/VR development marketplace. The 5SCAPE token is the heart of this ecosystem, granting users access to exclusive content, in-game features, and potential governance rights. 2. Sponge V2 (SPONGE): This evolved meme coin aims to redefine the meme coin space by offering play-to-earn gaming features and attractive staking rewards. The $SPONGEV2 token fuels the ecosystem, allowing users to earn rewards by playing games and participating in the network. 3. Scorpion Casino: This innovative platform seeks to revolutionize online gambling by integrating blockchain technology. It promises transparent and secure transactions, enhanced fairness through smart contracts, and a user-friendly gaming experience. 4.

The UDAO token empowers community members to participate in governance decisions and share potential profits. 5.

BLP token holders benefit from faster transaction processing and potentially increased network usage as the ecosystem grows. The Importance of Diverse Investments in Crypto ICOs When it comes to investment decisions in the crypto market, diversification is key. Investing in a variety of ICO projects spreads the risk and increases the potential for long-term gains. Here are some reasons why diverse investments in crypto ICOs are essential: 1. Mitigating Risks: The crypto market is known for its volatility, with prices fluctuating rapidly. By diversifying your investments, you spread the risk across multiple projects, reducing the impact of any potential losses. If one project underperforms, the gains from other projects can help offset the losses. 2. Catering to Market Changes: The crypto market is highly dynamic, with new trends and technologies emerging regularly. By investing in diverse ICO projects, you position yourself to capitalize on the latest market developments. This flexibility allows you to adapt to changing market conditions and take advantage of new investment opportunities. 3. Gaining Exposure to Various Industries: The crypto space offers investment opportunities in a wide range of industries, including finance, gaming, technology, and more. By diversifying your investments, you gain exposure to different sectors, increasing your chances of finding projects that align with your investment goals and interests. 4. Maximizing Potential Returns: Diversifying your investment portfolio increases the potential for higher returns. While some projects may experience moderate growth, others may skyrocket in value. By having a mix of investments, you position yourself to benefit from the projects that outperform the market, potentially maximizing your overall returns. 5. Reducing Dependence on a Single Project: Relying heavily on a single ICO project can be risky, as the success of that project dictates the fate of your investment. By diversifying, you reduce the dependence on any one project, spreading the potential for success across multiple investments. 6. Diversification in crypto ICOs is not only a smart investment strategy, but it also allows you to participate in the growth and evolution of various industries. However, it's important to conduct thorough research and due diligence before investing in any project. Understanding the unique features, market demand, and potential risks of each project will help you make informed investment decisions in the crypto market. Understanding the Mechanics of an ICO Before diving deeper into the world of ICO investments, it's crucial to grasp the mechanics behind these fundraising mechanisms. Initial Coin Offerings, also known as ICOs, have gained popularity in recent years, providing cryptocurrency projects with a means to finance their development and growth. In the following sections, we will explore the structure of an ICO, the role of token economics, the key differences between ICO, IEO, STO, and IDO, and the potential risks and rewards associated with ICO investments. The Structure of an ICO The structure of an ICO typically involves several key components that enable projects to raise funds and launch their native tokens. Let's take a closer look at the key elements of an ICO: Initial Coin Offering (ICO): An ICO refers to the fundraising process in which projects offer their native tokens to the public. This initial token sale allows investors to participate in the project's growth potential by acquiring tokens at a discounted price. Token Generation Events: ICO projects often conduct token generation events, which serve as the primary means of token distribution. These events can take the form of presale rounds, public sales, or private investment rounds, depending on the project's strategy and funding requirements. Total Supply: Projects determine the total supply of tokens in their ICO, which represents the maximum number of tokens that will ever exist. The total supply is an important factor to consider, as it affects the token's scarcity, demand, and potential price appreciation. Investor Participation: Investors can participate in an ICO by purchasing the project's native tokens in exchange for popular cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin or Ethereum. This participation provides investors with the potential for capital appreciation and the opportunity to support innovative projects from the early stages. Roadmap and Token Utility: ICO projects typically have a roadmap outlining their development plans and milestones. Additionally, the token's utility within the project's ecosystem is a key consideration for investors. Understanding the token's value proposition and potential uses can help assess the project's long-term viability. Understanding the structure of an ICO is essential for investors looking to participate in token sales. By grasping the key components, investors can navigate the ICO landscape and make informed decisions in the crypto market. Now, let's delve into the role of token economics in ICOs. The Role of Token Economics in ICOs Token economics play a vital role in the success of ICO projects, impacting the value and utility of the native tokens. Here's a closer look at the key factors that influence token economics in ICOs: Token Holders: Token holders form the community of investors and users who hold the project's native tokens. The number of token holders and their engagement in the project's ecosystem contribute to the liquidity and demand for the tokens in the market. Market Demand: The demand for tokens is crucial in determining their value in the crypto market. Factors such as the project's potential, the market need for the project's offerings, and the growth potential of the industry influence market demand for the tokens. Token Utility: The utility of tokens within the project's ecosystem is a key component of token economics. Tokens can serve various purposes, including governance rights, access to platform features, payment for services, or rewards for participation. The token's utility enhances its value and incentivizes token holders to actively engage in the project. Economic Model: The economic model of the project defines the token distribution, supply, and potential token rewards. How the project balances token rewards, scarcity, and token supply affects the market dynamics and the potential price appreciation of the tokens. Market Cap: The market capitalization of a project's native tokens reflects the total value of the tokens in circulation. Market cap is calculated by multiplying the token price by the total supply of tokens. It serves as an indicator of the project's market value and potential attractiveness to investors. Token economics play a crucial role in shaping the success of ICO projects. By understanding the role of token holders, market demand, token utility, economic models, and market cap, investors can evaluate the potential of ICO investments. Now, let's differentiate between ICO, IEO, STO, and IDO. Differentiating Between ICO, IEO, STO, and IDO The cryptocurrency space offers various fundraising mechanisms, each with its own characteristics and benefits. It's important to differentiate between Initial Coin Offerings (ICO), Initial Exchange Offerings (IEO), Security Token Offerings (STO), and Initial DEX Offerings (IDO) for informational purposes. In the following sections, we will explore the key differences between these offerings and guide you in selecting the right type of investment for your portfolio. The Key Differences While ICOs, IEOs, STOs, and IDOs all contribute to the blockchain fundraising space, they differ in their key characteristics: Initial Coin Offerings (ICO): ICOs are decentralized fundraising mechanisms that typically involve token sales to the public. ICO projects rely on community engagement and cryptocurrency exchanges to facilitate the token sale process. ICOs provide projects with the means to finance their development while offering investors the potential for capital appreciation. Initial Exchange Offerings (IEO): IEOs, on the other hand, are token offerings facilitated by cryptocurrency exchanges. Unlike ICOs, where projects handle the token sale process, IEOs take place on crypto exchanges, which perform due diligence on the projects before listing the tokens. This added layer of exchange involvement enhances the security and credibility of the token sale process. Security Token Offerings (STO): Security Token Offerings involve the sale of tokens that represent an investment contract in a regulated asset, such as equity in a company, profit-sharing rights, or debt securities. STOs are compliant with securities laws, offering investors the potential for ownership in the project and the expectation of financial returns, much like traditional investment vehicles. Initial DEX Offerings (IDO): Each type of offering has its own advantages and considerations, dependent on factors such as regulatory compliance, project reputation, investment goals, and risk appetite. Now, let's explore the importance of choosing the right type of investment in the crypto market. Choosing the Right Type for Your Investment When it comes to investing in the crypto space, due diligence and careful consideration of the investment type are essential. Here's why choosing the right type of investment matters: Due Diligence Investment Decisions Crypto Space By conducting due diligence, aligning investment decisions with personal goals, and staying informed about the crypto space, investors can choose the investment type that best suits their needs. Whether it's ICOs, IEOs, STOs, or IDOs, each offering provides unique opportunities and potential rewards. However, it's important to carefully evaluate each investment in the crypto market, considering factors such as regulatory compliance, project transparency, market demand, and investment potential. Now, let's turn our attention to identifying potential ICO scams. Identifying Potential ICO Scams Scams in the ICO space are prevalent due to the lack of regulation and oversight, making it crucial to be vigilant. Watch out for promises of guaranteed returns and unrealistic claims about projects. Conduct thorough research on the team behind the ICO, checking for verifiable credentials and past experiences in the crypto industry. Be cautious of projects with plagiarized whitepapers or vague project details, as these can be red flags signaling potential scams. Red Flags in ICO Projects When considering ICO projects, it's crucial to watch out for signs that may indicate potential scams. Be cautious of exaggerated profit guarantees, lack of team transparency, or copied whitepapers. High-pressure tactics to rush investments and unclear tokenomics are also red flags to be aware of in the crypto market. Stay vigilant and conduct thorough research to avoid falling victim to fraudulent schemes. How to Stay Safe While Investing in ICOs Engaging with trustworthy partners can boost investment security in the volatile cryptocurrency market. Staying updated through project team communications and regular updates is vital for informed decisions. Verifying details on the official website is a key step in conducting due diligence. Joining the project's Telegram channel offers real-time access to critical updates. Thoroughly researching new meme cryptocurrencies or tokens like meme kombat ensures informed investing decisions. The Steps to Invest in an ICO Understanding the mechanics of an ICO is crucial for successful investments. The initial step involves selecting a suitable ICO from the plethora available. Following this, purchasing the necessary cryptocurrency to participate in the ICO is essential. Transferring the acquired cryptocurrency to a secure Web3 wallet and finalizing the purchase marks the completion of the process. Each step demands meticulous attention to detail and thorough research to minimize risks and maximize investment potential. Step 1 - Selecting a Suitable ICO When choosing an ICO, having a strong community can be beneficial. It's crucial to assess the project's roadmap and ensure transparency in its goals. Market demand plays a significant role, and analyzing growth potential is key. Consider these factors to make an informed decision. Step 2 - Purchasing the Necessary Cryptocurrency When acquiring cryptocurrencies such as Bitcoin or Ethereum, it's typical in the cryptocurrency market. Opting for reputable exchanges for cryptocurrency purchases is advisable. It's prudent to factor in fees and transaction speed during the purchase. Verifying wallet compatibility with the selected ICO is essential. Accurately calculating the required amount before making the purchase is crucial. Step 3 - Transferring to a Web3 Wallet and Making the Purchase To ensure the safety of your investments, transferring purchased cryptocurrencies to a secure Web3 wallet is crucial. It is advised to complete transactions promptly after the transfer and double-check the wallet address for accuracy. Following the ICO's purchase instructions precisely is essential for a seamless process. Keep your wallet's security measures up to date to safeguard your assets effectively. Risks Associated with ICO Investments Understanding the risks associated with investing in ICOs is crucial. The volatile nature of the cryptocurrency market, coupled with the lack of regulations, poses significant challenges for investors. The potential for losses due to market fluctuations and the absence of regulatory oversight can lead to substantial financial risks. It is essential for investors to conduct thorough research and due diligence before considering an ICO investment to mitigate these inherent risks. Understanding the Volatility of the Market Market dynamics impact ICO token values considerably. Preparedness for abrupt price shifts is pivotal. Regularly tracking market trends holds significance. Diversification aids in managing volatility effectively. Reviewing historical price actions before investment is vital. Potential for Loss Due to Lack of Regulation Investors face risks from regulatory uncertainties, legal challenges, and lack of protection in unregulated ICO markets. Caution is crucial to avoid financial losses. Understanding jurisdictional implications is key to navigating the unregulated landscape, ensuring informed decision-making amidst potential drawbacks due to the absence of regulations. The Potential Rewards of ICO Investments Opportunities for potential rewards in ICO investments include opportunities for capital appreciation and possibilities of earning passive income. Investors can benefit from the growth of projects, leading to capital appreciation over time, as well as earning passive income through various mechanisms within ICO projects. Understanding these key factors is essential for investors looking to capitalize on the potential rewards offered by ICO investments. Opportunities for Capital Appreciation Capital appreciation in ICO investments can result in significant gains, with high-potential projects offering lucrative returns. The value of ICO tokens has the potential to increase over time, subject to strategic investment decisions. Timely market analysis is essential for maximizing capital growth. Possibilities of Earning Passive Income Exploring various avenues to generate passive income through ICO investments is crucial. Staking rewards from tokens offer a steady income stream, while engaging in token holder activities can boost earnings. Leveraging decentralized finance options enhances passive income opportunities. Additionally, holding onto ICO projects long-term can lead to significant returns, and reinvesting dividends can establish a sustainable passive income flow. Embracing these strategies can optimize the potential for earning passive income in the dynamic cryptocurrency market. Using Social Media and ICO Calendars to Find ICOs Utilizing social platforms and ICO calendars can aid in discovering potential ICOs efficiently. Social media acts as a hub for updates and discussions on various projects like green bitcoin or meme kombat, providing insights into the cryptocurrency market trends. ICO calendars streamline the process by listing upcoming offerings like scorpion casino or meme coin, allowing investors to track opportunities easily. By leveraging these tools and staying informed about new meme cryptocurrencies or key factors, investors can make more informed decisions in the dynamic world of blockchain investments. At press time, Meme Kombat is offering a 109% staking APY, making it a top contender for the best ICO crypto to invest in 2024. Utilizing Social Media for ICO Discovery Discovering innovative ICO projects can be facilitated by actively engaging on various social media platforms. By tracking influential figures within the cryptocurrency market, valuable insights into potential ICO investments can be gained. Participating in ICO communities online aids in assessing the prevailing market sentiment. Interacting with existing token holders via social media can provide valuable perspectives for making informed investment decisions. Keeping abreast of the latest news and trends in the cryptocurrency space through social media channels is crucial for maximizing investment opportunities. Understanding the Role of ICO Calendars Utilize ICO calendars as a centralized resource for upcoming token sales in the cryptocurrency market. Plan your investment journey efficiently with these platforms, staying informed about presale rounds and token generation events. Keep ahead of new opportunities by monitoring ICO calendars, which streamline the process of tracking and discovering ICO projects. Stay updated on the latest updates and key factors in the crypto presale space, including the launch of new tokens, to make well-informed investment decisions. Does Investing in ICO Crypto Promise a Profitable Return? Analyzing potential returns on ICO investments is crucial. Thorough research assesses profitability, market demand, and growth projections. Informed decisions based on market cap and rewards determine profitable outcomes amidst risks. Understanding the rewards and risks ensures a strategic approach to ICO investments. Conclusion Investing in ICO cryptos can be both exciting and risky. It's crucial to diversify your investments and thoroughly research each project before committing.

Angkor Resources Receives International Attention Regarding its ESG Projects

Angkor Resources Corp.

Angkor Resources Receives International Attention Regarding i ts ESG Projects GRANDE PRAIRIE, ALBERTA – TheNewswire - March 5, 2024 - ANGKOR RESOURCES CORP. (TSXV:ANK ) and ( OTC:ANKOF) (“ANGKOR ” or the “Company”) announces that it has received international attention for its activities and facilitation of Financial Literacy (“FinLit”) training for Indigenous Communities, stemming from requests from local communities for assistance in dealing with debt load from overzealous microfinance institutions (“MFI”). February, 2024, the European Union’s Manager on Governance, Democracy and Human Rights, the CEO of CORD United Kingdom, and Cerise SPFT for Southeast Asia were onsite in Banlung for first-hand view and discussion about the FinLit training and other activities undertaken by Angkor. The delegation was joined by upper management of Development and Partnerships in Action (“DPA”). Click Image To View Full Size Above: Viseth Keo explains some of Angkor’s ESG activities to delegation from European Union, CORD, Cerise, and DPA. Mike Weeks provides presentation at the Angkor Training Center. In early 2022, Angkor initiated the research for the project on the Andong Meas license when it heard and saw the impact on the communities. Angkor then asked for collaboration with Advanced Bank of Asia (“ABA”), which is owned by National Bank of Canada, to provide financial literacy training to families of rural communities that were at risk of losing their homes, farms and land security. Due to the inability to repay microfinance loans with very high interest rates and fees and no analysis of the MFIs undertaken regarding the ability to repay, many of Cambodia’s most vulnerable people have fallen into insurmountable debt with little chance of repayment in their lifetime. The disturbing results of baseline surveys completed in communities provided results like the first community of 58 families, of which 90% of the families completing the survey illustrated: Average household debt ($4500) exceeded annual income $243,000 total MFI debt for 53 households on 1/1/22 (not including informal debt). Increased stress, mental health issues, suicide, and general health decline Multiple loans, using one MFI to borrow from to pay another MFI A lack of understanding of what people were signing and no explanation or discussion of repayment obligations and failure to pay. Although several NGOs were working with Indigenous Communities on the issue, the project appeared to only gain traction when Angkor, as a foreign investor company in Cambodia, became involved and drew in the ABA bank for collaboration. Angkor continues to work with the NGOs. Therefore, the needs assessment and baseline data led to the development of the FinLit project. The program started in three communities and has grown to provide 46 training programs to 41 villages, each in their own native language. The results have been significant and initiated reforms by the government and MFIs while numerous other communities have requested the FinLit training as well. Part of Angkor’s Environmental, Social, Governance (“ESG”) platform, which run parallel to the exploration and development activities, is to undertake needs assessments with the surrounding communities and assist in activities for communities to gain control of their livelihoods and manage their needs. Angkor also integrated Cambodia’s first national agreement between industry and indigenous communities for stakeholder benefits. The top requests from communities continue to be: improved education especially in English and computer applications; improved health care with clean water and sanitation solutions; economic development and employment/skillset training and security of land title and ownership. SURVEY DATA COMPARISON OF HOUSEHOLD DEBT AND GDP PER CAPITA CAMBODIAN HOUSEHOLDS Click Image To View Full Size Source: average household loan was obtained from Cambodia Microfinance Association (CMA) while GDP per capita was obtained from the World Bank website.

GameSquare Sells Complexity Gaming for $10.36 Million

MarketJar

The esports industry is abuzz with M&A activity as major players stake their claim in the market. On Friday, GameSquare Holdings announced the sale of its esports team Complexity Gaming for $10.36 million to the team’s founder, Jason Lake. GameSquare, which bought Complexity back in July 2021 for $27 million, said the esports franchise has experienced significant growth under their ownership, with sales soaring by over 175%. 1 The company also brought on big-name streamers like Ninja and TimTheTatman as investors during that period and increased its social media followers “tenfold.” Another major deal that just hit the esports market is OverActive Media’s (TSXV:OAM) (OTC:OAMCF) acquisition of Spanish esports organizations KOI and Movistar Riders, which has created a global esports powerhouse with over 100 million followers. OverActive Media Creates Global Esports Powerhouse with Major Acquisition The acquisition of KOI and Movistar Riders is the largest in OverActive Media’s history, expanding its global footprint to fast-growing international markets and bringing with it a diverse range of superior esports assets. KOI, a leading esports organization in Europe, was co-founded by the globally renowned Twitch streamer Ibai Llanos and soccer legend Gerard Piqué, formerly of FC Barcelona. Under Ibai's influence, KOI rapidly ascended to become one of Europe's premier brands. Gerard Piqué, known for his victories with FC Barcelona and Manchester United at the FIFA World Cup and UEFA EURO, initiated the Kings League in 2022. This league quickly emerged as one of the most followed sports channels on digital platforms, amassing over 100 million views in 2023. OverActive Media has secured service contracts with both Ibai and Gerard. Movistar Riders, another top esports organization in Spain, competes in popular games such as League of Legends, CS2, VALORANT, and FIFA through its partnership with the Atlético de Madrid team. It maintains a long-term multi-million-dollar partnership with multinational telecom leader Telefónica, which just renewed its sponsorship for three years and is now a shareholder in OverActive Media.. “These acquisitions bring significant synergies and opportunity to OverActive, and we are already seeing their impact across our audience numbers, engagement levels, sponsorships and renewals,” said Adam Adamou, CEO of OverActive. “We are filled with the enthusiasm that comes from seeing our combined vision come together into something that is far greater than the sum of the parts.” KOI and Movistar joins OverActive Media (TSXV:OAM) (OTC:OAMCF) roster of widely popular esports team franchises, including the Toronto Ultra in Call of Duty League, the MAD Lions for the League of Legends EMEA Championship and the Toronto Defiant in the Overwatch Champion Series. OverActive Media expects the acquisitions to add C$10 million to C$12 million in revenues in 2024 and further bolster its ever-rising viewership numbers. Following the acquisition, OverActive Media successfully obtained approval from Riot Games for the transfer of a VALORANT Champions Tour EMEA Team Participation Agreement from KOI to operate the 'Movistar KOI' team for the 2024 VCT season. This strategic move significantly expands OverActive Media 's footprint in the esports industry and places the company in a highly competitive and visible segment of the esports market. VALORANT has quickly become one of the most popular and competitive games in esports, and participation at this level can attract sponsorships, fan engagement, and additional revenue streams. The Mad Lions KOI team has already made a splash, attracting 741,000 peak viewers in a regular season match in the League of Legends EMEA Championship (LEC) Winter Split in January, the highest since summer 2021. Co-founder Ibai further fueled this momentum by drawing over 4.7 million Twitch views, surpassing the Succession series premiere’s 2.93 million viewers. Another milestone was reached on February 18, during the LEC, with a record 830,816 viewers, the highest ever for a regular season match.

Solar Panels At 50% Less With A 25-Year Guarantee – Monalee Leverages Technology In An Industry That Has Been Relatively Slow To Adopt It

Monalee

By Meg Flippin, Benzinga Solar panel prices have fallen 85% over the past decade, but just 3% of homeowners in the U.S. have these energy-saving panels installed on their rooftops. That’s even though it can save them as much as $1,500 a year on energy costs. A big reason is unclear pricing from an industry that largely relies on old-fashioned sales tactics to find customers. Solar panels may be high-tech, but selling them is far from it. Pushy door-to-door salesmen often knock on homeowners’ doors, giving quotes and estimates on the fly that are often too good to be true. As a result, homeowners can be left thinking they will pay one amount only to find out later it’s much higher. Murky Pricing No More? The true cost for a residential photovoltaic system varies based on the size of the roof, amount of sunlight, pitch and roofing material. Many industry players hide behind that when they raise the price after the initial estimate. And let’s not forget the energy savings these salesmen promise – some exaggerate it simply to close the deal. That hurts the industry’s efforts to drive adoption and the U.S. goal for solar to account for 40% of the country’s electricity by 2035. If you are looking for an accurate price on a solar panel system, look no further. Monalee can tell you how much it will cost you in minutes, including all the rebates and incentives. Finding an accurate estimate for your solar panels may seem hard, but that need not be the case with Monalee, a U.S.-based climate tech startup. It is taking an innovative approach that’s focused on transparent and accurate pricing. A bonus: you don’t have to worry about pushy salesmen banging on your door. The sales process happens online and in minutes thanks to Monalee’s advanced machine learning. The company’s proprietary technology culls information from millions of different data points to provide homeowners with the best solar design based on their home and energy needs. It takes into consideration factors like the direction the roof faces (for example, a roof in the northern hemisphere that faces south will get the most sun and therefore will be the most efficient) and whether there are nearby trees that might provide shade over the panels when providing the assessment and pricing. Monalee Brings Transparency To The Market Monalee says that anyone can go to its website, enter their home address and receive an accurate solar quote in less than a minute. Through its state-of-the-art design platform, you know exactly how many panels you’ll need, the best layout to maximize sun exposure and the bottom line cost including discounts and rebates before you sign up. All eligible federal and state incentives are factored in, and all of the fees and savings are laid out in an easy-to-read statement. Whether you finance the panels or pay for them outright, you know exactly what you are on tap for prior to signing a contract. All of that comes at what Monalee says is a steep discount to its rivals – since the company doesn’t deploy salespeople into neighborhoods or rely on designers to map out the layout of the solar panel design, it says it can secure the same solar panel systems at half the price compared to the top traditional solar companies in the U.S., saving customers up to 50% off the total. To make it even more palpable, Monalee throws in the ‘Monalee Guarantee,’ which ensures the system works as it should for at least 25 years. How’s that for transparency and peace of mind? The residential solar panel market may need to rethink its approach if it wants solar to become the de facto energy source of the future. Without licensing and training requirements to sell solar in most states, companies tend to rely on a network of freelance salespeople who are often more focused on commissions than providing an accurate and fair price. Monalee is changing that with its transparent and affordable pricing. You know exactly what the system will cost you whether you finance or pay for the panels outright, how much of a discount you’ll get from state and federal incentives and how much energy you can save.

Monalee is a climate tech company that is accelerating the adoption of home solar, storage, and EV charging. By leveraging powerful machine learning and removing salespeople and system designers from the process, we are able to secure the same solar panel systems for homeowners at half the price compared to the top traditional solar companies in the U.S., making us the fastest, most efficient way to go solar.
