Westwater Resources says recent US Department of Energy announcement good news for company

Westwater Resources Inc

Westwater Resources CCO Jon Jacobs joined Steve Darling from Proactive to delve into the recent guidance issued by the Department of Energy regarding Foreign Entities of Concern, and how this development relates to the Inflation Reduction Act and the electric vehicle (EV) tax credit. Jacobs shed light on the significance of this announcement, which signals the U.S. government's proactive stance in bolstering the growth of a domestic industry. One of the key takeaways from this guidance is the government's recognition of the importance of providing domestic companies access to capital while simultaneously creating incentives for these companies to shift their supply chains away from China. Jacobs highlighted how this aligns with Westwater Resources' strategic goals and its advancements in the battery graphite business, particularly in Alabama, where the company is focused on producing high-quality battery graphite products. In addition to discussing the Department of Energy's guidance, Jacobs provided insights into the results of an Initial Assessment for the Coosa Graphite Deposit in Alabama. Remarkably, these positive figures were derived from drilling data covering less than 10% of the Coosa Deposit acreage, and they did not account for any potential benefits from previously discovered vanadium resources.

United Nations IGF Dynamic Coalition Pilots a Decentralized Autonomous Organization (DAO)

PlatoData

New York, NY – December 20, 2023 - ( Plato AiStream via 500NewsWire) -- The United Nations Internet Governance Forum (IGF) Dynamic Coalition on Blockchain Assurance & Standardization announces the initiation of a groundbreaking project aimed at establishing a Distributed Autonomous Organization (DAO). The pilot project is a collaborative effort showcasing how public sector organizations can leverage blockchain technology and DAO principles to foster transparent, rules-based, and high-integrity governance structures. UN - IGF Dynamic Coalitions are multistakeholder groups operating within the framework of the UN Internet Governance Forum, addressing specific issues related to internet governance. These coalitions are independent entities within the UN-IGF and bring together diverse stakeholders to collaborate on focused topics, fostering dialogue and producing outputs such as reports and guidelines. A Distributed Autonomous Organization (DAO) is an organization governed by a set of rules encoded as smart contracts on a blockchain, operating on principles of decentralization and automation. In a DAO, decision-making and governance processes are encoded into smart contracts on a blockchain, enabling members to participate in the organization's activities without the need for traditional hierarchical structures. DAOs typically utilize digital tokens for voting and decision-making, and their rules are transparently and immutably recorded on the blockchain. This decentralized approach aims to create trust, transparency, and efficiency, allowing members to collectively manage resources, make decisions, and execute actions based on predefined rules without the need for centralized control. According to one of the groups co-leaders, Mr. Dino Cataldo Dell'Accio who also is the CIO of the United Nations Joint Staff Pension Fund, “This initiative signifies a pivotal step toward establishing innovative and secure governance models, ensuring that blockchain technology can be harnessed for the benefit of public sector organizations. The UN IGF DC-BAS remains committed to fostering collaboration, transparency, and the responsible adoption of emerging technologies.” The Dynamic Coalition is hosted by the Government Blockchain Association (GBA), a non-profit that helps the public and private sector connect, communicate, and collaborate. The GBA provides the infrastructure support for the organization. The Dynamic Coalition is also co-led by the GBA Executive Director, Gerard Dache and along with Mr. Dino Cataldo Dell'Accio, they lead a public, open forum multi-stakeholder coalition from around the world that meets on a monthly basis. The technology being used for this pilot project is donated by a GBA member, Gosh, an Ethereum Layer 2 solution that allows developers to run smart contracts on-chain for free. The pilot will also liaise with other GBA working groups, including: Application Architecture Digital Asset Management DAO Governance Legal & Legislative Anyone can join the group by requesting access to the UN IGF BAS-DC Google Group.

Ark Invest Dumps $11.5M Worth Of Coinbase Shares, Revenue Sharing DeFi Platform Continues Attracting Investors To Profitable Presale

Pullix.io

Recently, Ark Invest has sold $11.5M worth of Coinbase shares. This move has sparked discussions in the crypto community. Meanwhile, Pullix (PLX), a revenue-sharing DeFi platform, continues to captivate investors' interest through its ongoing presale. According to some market analysts, this new ICO, now in Stage 2 of its presale, is pegged to become the next 100x token in 2024. Let's take a closer look at why. A Change in the Ark Invest Strategy Ark Invest's decision to dump its Coinbase shares signals a strategic shift. This action is significant; however, it doesn't necessarily mean a diminishing belief in the crypto space. Instead, it might hint at a reallocation strategy or diversified investment approach. On December 15, the Coinbase stock sat at $148.52, according to TradingView, down 2.24% from December 14. This is a 56% fall from its all-time high of $342.98 set during November 2021. Pullix (PLX): One Of The Best DeFi Projects Amid this, Pullix (PLX) remains a focal point in the DeFi market. This upcoming hybrid DeFi trading platform will merge the best centralized and decentralized exchange features. As a result, you will benefit significantly as a trader with high leverage at 1000:1, deep liquidity, and self-custody over your assets. Additionally, Pullix sets itself apart by allowing the trade of all asset classes (including cryptos). This will open up numerous financial markets, even the forex one. According to a 2019 Triennial Central Bank Survey, the forex market saw a daily volume of $6.6T in 2022. This aspect gives Pullix a competitive edge over platforms like Binance or Coinbase, which have a "crypto-only" policy. A Unique Revenue-Sharing System At the heart of this platform and all its features will lie the PLX native token. It is now worth just $0.042 as it is in Stage 2 of its presale. This crypto ICO event has caused a frenzy in the community as 4.7M tokens have already been sold, and $199,000 have been raised. One key reason is Pullix's revenue-sharing model, which allows investors to benefit from the platform's success. In other words, those who stake the PLX native token will receive a percentage of Pullix's daily revenue. Moreover, Pullix will implement a burn feature that will make the altcoin deflationary and scarce - potentially increasing its value. If you become a liquidity provider on Pullix, you may even stake other cryptocurrencies with Pullix to receive fixed interest rates over time. For example, you may deposit Bitcoin, and your fixed interest rate will be paid out in Bitcoin. The interest rate will vary from 8-18% depending on the lock-up period. For those who desire only to hold the PLX token, know that you will receive discounts of up to 60% on trading fees while also gaining exclusive access to specific asset classes. This way, every trader will benefit. Conclusion While Ark Invest's move signals a shift, it doesn't diminish the appeal of DeFi projects like Pullix. Since it has a low market cap of $8M, it would only need $8M for its current price (and returns to investors) to double. This is achievable considering the innovative features Pullix will introduce and the financial markets it will tap into. Because of this fact, plus its high demand with millions of tokens already sold, experts in the field foresee a 580% value rise for this altcoin before its presale ends. In Q1 of 2024, after its launch and exchange listing, it may even experience a 100x pump - making PLX one of the altcoins to watch. For more information regarding Pullix’s presale see links below: Visit Pullix Join The Pullix Communities Pullix is a new DeFi protocol that is launching a hybrid exchange that will seamlessly blend the strengths of centralized and decentralized exchanges into one unified platform. Serving as the pioneer of “Trade-to-Earn” our native token $PLX empowers the community to earn a portion of the daily revenues generated by the exchange. Digital currencies may be unregulated in your jurisdiction. The value of digital currencies may go down as well as up. Profits may be subject to capital gains or other taxes applicable in your jurisdiction. Contact Details Pullix.io PR Team contact@pullix.io Company Website https://pullix.io/

Angi 2023 Home Improvement Trends According to Angi

YourUpdateTV

As we head towards the end of the year, it’s the perfect time to reflect on the year that was and start to plan for the year ahead. Recently, Angie Hicks from Angi (formerly Angie’s List) participated in a nationwide satellite media tour to discuss the top improvement trends from 2023 and a sneak preview at what to expect next year from Angi’s annual State of Home Spending report. A video accompanying this announcement is available at: https://youtu.be/kDalzLjKHms Overall, homeowners increased spending on their home in 2023 and spending on home improvement grew 6% to $13,667 with homeowners completing an average of 11.1 projects per household in 2023. Homeowners continue to show us that they love their homes and want to maintain them and invest in them. This year, homeowners took on a lot of projects to make their homes suit their needs and fit their lifestyles. Homeowners’ top projects run the gamut from the important work of making sure that your home is well maintained to projects that make your space fit your lifestyle like bathroom remodels and interior painting. Looking forward, we expect homeowners to continue prioritizing their homes and investing in improvement and maintenance projects. As we start thinking about our resolutions for 2024, make sure to include your home in your plans. A little planning and budgeting now can save you time and stress in the new year. It’s always great to start with a list of things that you really want to do around your home and the things that you need to do to make sure your home is properly maintained. For example, remodeling a bathroom might be high up on your list of projects for 2024, but you know that your HVAC system could also use some maintenance. If you’re not sure what maintenance you need to tackle on your home, Angi has some great resources for regular maintenance that you should be up to date on each year. In order to stick to your budget, keep up with regular maintenance. This will help to prevent unexpected emergency spending that will blow your whole budget - also planning for emergency spending that might inevitably pop up due to weather events, etc. will also help prevent you from having to borrow from your improvement fund for the projects you really want to tackle. For more information, visit Angi.com About Angie Hicks Since 1995, Angie Hicks has been dedicated to helping consumers get the real scoop on local service companies and health providers. Inspired by the frustrations her co-founder had trying to find reliable contractors in suburban Columbus, Ohio, she started Angie's List 'now Angi' to help homeowners find who they should hire and who they should avoid.
