Pantheon Resources sitting on "enormous potential" - Proactive Research Analyst

Pantheon Resources PLC

Proactive research analyst Manos Halicioglu speaks to Thomas Warner from Proactive after publishing a research note on North Slope of Alaska-focused oil & gas company Pantheon Resources, which has 100% working interest in 153,000 highly prospective acres with potential for multi billion barrels of oil recoverable. Halicioglu says Pantheon Resources has been making headlines with its Kodiak and Ahpun oil projects, covering an impressive 160,000 acres and boasting an estimated 1.481 billion barrels of recoverable oil. The company's 100% working interest and commitment to sustainable development are key factors in their strategic growth trajectory. They aim for a market value of $5-10 per barrel by 2028, supported by a substantial $25 billion phased investment. Halicioglu notes an anticipated 337% return, translating to an impressive annual rate of around 34% in the competitive oil and gas sector. Pantheon's consistent revenue growth and robust asset base, coupled with strategic investments and financial acumen, position them strongly in the $5.3 trillion global oil and gas exploration and production market. However, risks such as liquidity challenges and broader market dynamics like regulatory changes and global economic factors were also discussed. Despite these concerns, Halicioglu says Pantheon's solid financial performance and market position somewhat mitigate these risks. Key to Halicioglu's valuation is the absolute valuation approach, considering intrinsic value for long-term investment analysis. This method offers a comprehensive view of Pantheon's worth, considering its assets, market position, and growth prospects, providing a clear picture for potential investors. For more details, Halicioglu's full report is accessible via a link provided in the interview.

Kodal Minerals CEO reports on "fantastic" 2023 and next steps

Kodal Minerals PLC

Kodal Minerals PLC (AIM:KOD) CEO Bernard Aylward speaks to Thomas Warner from Proactive at the end of a year he describes as "fantastic" for the company and its effort to develop the Bougouni Lithium Project in southern Mali. He says a transformative joint venture with Hainan Mining has fully funded the development of Bougouni, prompting the start of its construction. Kodal also grew its resource base by over 40% due to successful drilling programs, with more exploration work still to come in. He touches on negotiations with Hainan Mining, which were initially expected to be swift but encountered bureaucratic delays. However, with regulatory approvals and restructuring, the deal was finalised in November. Aylward remains optimistic about starting production by late 2024, transitioning Kodal from an explorer to a lithium producer. He stresses the company's consistent communication and strong relationship with shareholders, emphasising the year's transformational impact. Aylward concludes by expressing gratitude for the support since 2016 and anticipated further developments, extending holiday wishes to the interviewer and viewers.

ECR Minerals PLC

ECR Minerals PLC (AIM:ECR) Managing Director Nick Tulloch speaks to Thomas Warner from Proactive after the mineral exploration and development company announced that a reverse circulation (RC) drilling programme has commenced at the Creswick gold project in central Victoria, Australia. Tulloch highlights the strategic focus on the two prospects areas Davy Road and Kuboid Hill and explains that ECR's approach involves RC drilling to investigate shallow gold deposits, leveraging the local expertise of their technical director and years of analysis. The company's goal is to gather sufficient data demonstrating the economic viability of the site. Tulloch underscores ECR's commitment to reconnecting with the community and investors, emphasising active communication and a focus on utilising company funds efficiently. He reflected on ECR's strategic shift under his leadership, including the decision to opt out of the Hurricane option in favour of more economical alternatives, and the ongoing drilling in Victoria. Investors are eagerly awaiting the drilling results, which Tulloch believes will validate the company's direction and potentially reveal valuable gold deposits. He says "its all well and good to say that we're drilling and we're taking the business forward - I mean that's our job. But another part of our job is also to make sure people are aware of what we're doing and that we're not just sitting behind desks thinking 'this is all very interesting'."

Blockchain Ticketing Platform UTIX Lists Its Token on Uniswap

UTIX

Blockchain ticketing platform UTIX is listing its native token on Uniswap. The UTX token will now be traded onchain via Uniswap’s AMM and from DEX aggregators that utilize Uniswap liquidity. By making UTX tradable on Uniswap, UTIX will increase access to its native token and e-ticketing ecosystem. On December 21st, the UTX token will be added to Uniswap, the leading Ethereum decentralized exchange. A UTX-ETH liquidity pool will be created, and allow users to purchase UTX using ETH and other popular tokens. As an ERC20 token, UTX can be traded non-custodially on Uniswap and through aggregators such as 1inch and DefiLlama Swap. Uniswap has become the first DEX where UTX can be swapped. Its addition follows a recent listing on BitMart, giving holders a choice of centralized and decentralized platforms to trade. In addition to buying and selling the token on Uniswap, UTX holders can add liquidity, allowing them to receive a percentage of swap fees while retaining ownership of their tokens. UTX is at the heart of the e-ticketing platform that UTIX has developed. It aims to solve many of the long-standing problems with event ticketing. The industry is afflicted by touting and price gouging that reward middlemen while pricing fans out of seeing the artists they love. UTIX is creating a digital ticketing ecosystem in which buyers and sellers can exchange tickets through a transparent P2P marketplace. Built on the Ethereum network, UTIX allows event organizers to create fully customizable ticketing solutions. Smart contracts are used to control the sale of tickets, supporting a fair ticketing market that ensures fans aren’t priced out of attending events. The platform is free for event organizers to use, with UTIX charging only a small fee on tickets sold. The UTX token plays a pivotal role in incentivizing the adoption of the UTIX platform and rewarding positive behaviors. Users who purchase tickets on UTIX are rewarded with UTX, which can also be used to earn discounts on future purchases. From the perspective of event organizers, UTIX allows control over the secondary market, preventing touts from reselling tickets for a premium. The use of blockchain also prevents fakes by providing an immutable ledger that tracks legitimate tickets. By abstracting blockchain components, UTIX delivers a web3 platform that feels like a web2 application. This ensures there is no learning curve required to access its e-ticketing solution and to interact with the smart contracts that power it. The addition of UTX to Uniswap will maintain UTIX’s close ties to the Ethereum ecosystem while onboarding new users to its e-ticketing platform. About UTIX UTIX is a blockchain-based online e-ticketing platform that enables event organizers across the world to sell online tickets with minimal hassle and greater control. Powered by Ethereum, UTIX aims to eliminate the efficiencies associated with legacy e-ticketing platforms through the use of smart contracts. Users and event organizers will be unaware they are using the blockchain, yet by harnessing its unique capabilities, UTIX allows full control of event-specific variables that would otherwise be impossible. In addition to eliminating the threat of counterfeits, UTIX provides a way to set the secondary market price for e-tickets, permanently solving the problem of ticket touts who routinely try to sell tickets at a massive markup.

News Release

Why Has The Solana Price Dipped? This New Altcoin Has The Community Buzzing

Total Media

On 9th November we saw Solana hit $77, dipping to $64 on 13th November and currently standing at $72. Many Solana investors ask themselves why the dip happened. Is there a new altcoin that could rise despite the crypto market being down? Solana (SOL): Following the King With Bitcoin reaching the year's high at $44,620, many coins followed its surge. Solana followed with a 38% rise during the last month. Double that of Bitcoin with its 18%: However, the 11th December correction pushed Bitcoin down to $40,500. Although Solana has many benefits of its own, everything that happens with BTC echoes throughout the crypto community. As Bitcoin corrects itself to $40,500, Solana hits $68. We can also see Solana's second dip on the 13th, down to a week low of $64. This matches the Bitcoin price dip back to $40,800. As Bitcoin grows 4.7% today, Solana is up 10.14%. Every altcoin, even Solana, heavily depends on the SEC and ETF resolutions. However, until then, when BTC goes down, Solana will likely follow. Bitcoin, Solana, and other cryptos have fairly tied their fate together. Everlodge (ELDG): A New Altcoin That Surges Independently of Bitcoin There’s a new surging altcoin that isn’t as tied to Bitcoin as Solana and other altcoins. Everlodge is based on real estate and physical properties, making it dependent on real-world income streams instead of price speculation. Everlodge is the Airbnb of crypto. Villas and hotels are minted into fractionalized NFTs sold on an open market. Investors in those properties earn passive income from the renting profits. This feature makes Everlodge more resistant to Bitcoin dips since the passive income remains the same regardless of Bitcoin's price. If Bitcoin were to disappear, Everlodge would still be here shooting passive profits to your wallet. At the same time, Everlodge gains popularity as crypto does as well. Because of the additional interest in the project, Bitcoin's growth makes Everlodge grow as well. This makes Everlodge unique in its feature of benefiting from Bitcoin growth while also avoiding being brought down when Bitcoin is falling. You can purchase fractions of real estate instead of a whole house and still enjoy the perks of being an owner. By holding the ERC-20 token you can even earn free stays in properties across the ecosystem. This approach that guarantees passive income has been hailed by many for its dip-resistant features. While also holding a huge growth potential in the $300 trillion real estate market. Because of these features, analysts are predicting it is going to hit $0.035 during the presale phase and hit x30 at the launch date. It won’t be available at these prices for long as the presale moves forward. Visit the official Everlodge website before these low prices are no longer available.

Ripples of 2023: FBS’s Insight on the 2024 Global Financial Outlook

FBS

With 2023 coming to an end, leading global broker FBS looks back at the significant economic events and delves into the perspective of the financial landscape in 2024. FBS financial market analysts point out that next year, financial markets will stand at the cusp of transformation under the influence of the US economy, global and local military conflicts, and the sprawl of AI. As FBS experts further stress, the cautious stance of the Federal Reserve on monetary policy and the rising cycle in 2023 weakened the US dollar, impacting major currency pairs like EURUSD. The FOMC press conference speech by Jerome Powell on the possible easing of US monetary policy in 2024 pushed EURUSD to the resistance at 1.1000. Global broker anticipates that economic growth will slow down to 2-3% due to monetary tightening in 2023 and geopolitical tensions impacting international trade. In this context, traders should consider volatile events and focus on risk management to mitigate stop-outs and losses. FBS analysts describe 2023 as a time when traders faced multiple liquidation risks amid media-covered geopolitical and economic events. Market uncertainty was heated by the global military conflicts that provoked gaps in XAUUSD and oil prices. By the end of the year, oil prices went down due to the anticipated deterioration of economic conditions in 2024, and gold prices experienced an upswing due to USD weakness, emphasizing the need for prudence during unpredictable news periods. The turbulent trend will likely continue in 2024, with oil prices fluctuating between $70 and $100 per barrel and gold rallying to $2,300 as investors will be awaiting the next inflation spike. 2023 was marked by optimism for the cryptocurrency market, FBS financial market analysts point out. BTCUSD demonstrated remarkable strength, gaining over 120%. Cooling US inflation, anticipation of Fed rate cuts, and the collapse of tech-focused banks early in the year contributed to Bitcoin’s resilience. Speaking about the potential dynamic in 2024, FBS analysts underscore the high incidence of a bearish trend in the first half of the year. Over the past weeks, Bitcoin has been going up to the resistance area of $47,000. In this context, FBS experts anticipate the recurrence of the 2019 events, when the Federal Reserve cut the key rate due to a weakening economy, which sent risky assets, such as Bitcoin, down – this time, the asset may even fall to the supports between $36,000 and $25,000. Although the second half of the year is expected to bring more positivity to Bitcion’s trajectory, the crypto movement will hinge on regulatory changes, institutional adoption pace, and advances in blockchain technology. The rise of artificial intelligence (AI) was another primary driver of 2023 that significantly influenced the stocks of AI-related companies. This way, NVIDIA’s stocks experienced a remarkable increase by 165%. However, FBS analysts highlight their overbought nature and advise traders to monitor performance – if the per-share price exceeds the $500 level, it will likely go up to $700. Emerging markets are expected to play a more significant role in the global economy in 2024, where Asian markets will be especially attractive. According to FBS analysts, traders can consider India, some Southeast Asian countries, and Brazil when planning their trades. These geographies are poised for significant growth, offering new investment opportunities and influencing global trade dynamics. In conclusion, FBS’s outlook on 2024 underscores the need for vigilance and strategic planning to navigate uncertainties and opportunities in trading. Careful consideration of the ripple effects of 2023 and emerging events will be critical in making informed decisions. For more information about FBS’s services, visit www.fbs.com.

Metagood Secures $5 Million To Propel Osura Marketplace for Bitcoin Art

Metagood

Chainwire Metagood, a blockchain technology and digital assets company, announced the successful completion of a $5 million series seed funding round aimed at advancing its Osura marketplace, focused on art within the Bitcoin ecosystem. “Osura is embarking on a groundbreaking collaboration with artists to immortalize their creations on Bitcoin, the blockchain synonymous with unparalleled security and longevity,” said Danny Yang, CEO of Metagood. “I’ve been building on Bitcoin for over a decade and couldn’t be more excited about the possibilities that lie ahead for us on the Ordinals protocol which is simple, elegant and powerful.” Spearheaded by Sora Ventures, the series seed round saw participation from key investors including ACTAI Ventures, Bitcoin Frontier Fund, UTXO Management, London Real Ventures, and Peach.xyz, among others. The Ordinals protocol, which is only a year old, has unlocked an important market for storing and securing high-value assets on the Bitcoin blockchain. Osura is building the infrastructure for launching and trading assets developed on the Ordinals protocol, starting with art on Bitcoin. “Embracing art on Bitcoin marks a stride into digital ownership, paving the way for real-world assets to seamlessly transact on the blockchain,” remarked Bill Tai, legendary venture capitalist and Metagood Chairman. “As witnessed in other chains with the advent of non-fungible tokens (NFTs,) we anticipate Bitcoin’s journey toward parallel explosive growth and are already seeing Bitcoin surpass other chains in recent NFT trading volumes.” This funding milestone, part of Metagood’s larger financing endeavor of $10 million, marks a new era in propelling the development of more technology and product innovations within Osura. Metagood aims to redefine industry standards by merging technology, art, and community engagement in the Bitcoin digital asset marketplace. “Metagood is setting the gold standard for technical innovation in the Ordinals market,” stated Jason Fang, Founder and Managing Partner at Sora Ventures. “Sora Ventures stands firm in the conviction that the most valuable digital artifacts will find their home on Bitcoin. Leading the round for Metagood is not just an opportunity but a testament to our unwavering belief in the Ordinals space.” The infusion of capital will bolster the company’s efforts in forging partnerships with artists, advancing product enhancements on Osura, and expanding its engineering and marketing team to meet burgeoning client and user growth. “With this new funding, Metagood is poised to elevate the Osura marketplace to new heights, further solidifying our standing as an industry leader in premium digital artifacts,” said Amanda Terry, Chief Operating Officer of Metagood. “As we navigate the exciting landscape leading up to the Bitcoin halving in April 2024, we believe the timing is impeccable for growing our team and advancing our commitment to innovation on Bitcoin.” Metagood has a dynamic founding team with extensive experience building on both Bitcoin and Ethereum. CEO Danny Yang, a crypto industry veteran, previously founded Maicoin, Taiwan’s largest crypto exchange operating since 2013, and Blockseer, a blockchain analytics business used by customers including the FBI, US Secret Service, and the DHS sold in 2018. COO Amanda Terry, with a background in business development at Twitter and five successful startup acquisitions, brings invaluable expertise to the team as a digital media operator and startup investor. Chairman Bill Tai, a crypto pioneer since 2010, has an impressive track record as the first investor in Zoom and seed investor in Canva, Dapper Labs, and 23 publicly traded companies. Metagood launched the innovative 10,000 digital art collection OnChainMonkey (OCM) in a single Ethereum transaction in September 2021. In 2023, OnChainMonkey made history on Bitcoin with their pioneering inscriptions. Metagood helped advance the Ordinals protocol and continued to trailblaze with the Ordinal collections of OCM Dimensions and OCM Genesis on Bitcoin. Both collections demonstrated new innovative art on Bitcoin and they inscribed code libraries on Bitcoin (p5.js, Three.js) that use recursive inscriptions, a new type of modular programming enabled on Bitcoin, which saves on Bitcoin fees for other creators to also use. Osura, Metagood’s NFT Marketplace, stands out as a premium Ordinals platform for art on Bitcoin. With a commitment to curating the finest digital artifacts, Osura debuted with two exceptional Bitcoin Ordinals NFT collections: OnChainMonkey (OCM) Dimensions 300 and the Asprey Bugatti Egg Collection. Metagood worked closely with iconic luxury brands Asprey Studio and Bugatti to create their first generative art collection on Bitcoin. In the new year, Metagood has an exciting lineup for artists launching on Osura in 2024 including Alexis André who created “Friendship Bracelets,” one of the most popular collections on Artblocks for their first collections on Bitcoin. Metagood’s $10 million in financing to date includes a who’s who in crypto, art, finance including Marcos Bernat (Casa Batlló), Sebastien Borget (The Sandbox), Holly Branson (Virgin Unite), Dingaling (NFT Collector), Gabby Dizon (YGG), Roham Gharegozlou (Dapper Labs), Woody Harrelson, Casper Johansen (Spartan Group), Bobby Lee (BTCC), Charlie Lee (Litecoin), Apolo Ohno (Tribe Capital), Yat Siu (Animoca Brands), Matthew Tan (Etherscan), Stacy Warden (Algorand), Owen Wilson, Mark Yusko (Morgan Creek Capital), and many others.
