Today in Finance

NEW YORK, USA, August 18, 2018 /EINPresswire.com/ — Today, the token economy of the blockchain, represented by its various cryptocurrencies, is worth more than US$400 billion. The future has already arrived. Its speed of adoption is catching many of us and governments by surprise. The blockchain is nothing without its token economics, and it is this intertwined "technological-economic" mix that explains its rapid rise and adoption as a public infrastructure.

Coins and tokens have seen a surge in demand as investors look for the next big jackpot to put their investments in to fulfil another “bitcoin dream”. But among the thousands of coins and tokens, which one has the edge over the rest and stand out among the competition?
A new project by the name of World Future Community looks a very interesting bet.

The World Future Community aims to use blockchain technology to carry out projects that bring social and economic benefits worldwide. Its mission is to create urgency and to promote change at the most basic and structural level. One of the main purposes of Blockchain and Cryptocurrencies is to benefit people by eliminating inflated costs of financial transactions from banks and other financial institutions. This not only give them monetary empowerment, it also increases fluidity in transactions.

All things said, World Future Community also plan to launch their own mobile online cryptocurrency exchange app in the future to further enhance their ability to engage the masses and bring about the social change they aim to achieve.

SINGAPORE, SINGAPORE, August 17, 2018 /EINPresswire.com/ — The number of cryptocurrencies and exchange platforms are increasing each year. Demand to buy and sell is also growing as the number of cryptocurrencies and trading platforms increase.

There are currently 1,568 different cryptocurrencies available, as at 21st March, 2018. This breaks down to 654 tokens and 914 coins. It all started with bitcoin, which was first released on January 9, 2009, and various versions launched in the following years. From December 2013 to the end of 2017, the number of cryptocurrencies increased from 40 to 1,273 – a 3,083% increase.

The number of transactions on the blockchain have dramatically increased over time.

On August 8, 2015, Ethereum made its way onto the world map. They have recorded 2,881 transactions and has been growing in popularity ever since.

Since cryptocurrency first launched in 2009 with Bitcoin, average trade values – the average of all cryptocurrency trades processed per day – of all cryptocurrencies have rapidly grown over a period defined by high volatility. The two biggest cryptocurrencies on the market, Bitcoin and Ethereum, have fluctuated in average trade value with steady growth over a seven-year period since Ethereum entered the market.

Along with these cryptocurrencies, new platforms and exchanges emerge, solely catering to the trading of tokens and coins. Coinbase, Binance, eToro and others joust for attention from traders and now a new cryptocurrency exchange by the name of IBGX has emerged through the list of service providers to offer safe, efficient, and easy trading, while charging minimal fees for each transaction. Now in its final testing stage, and set to launch in Q3 2018, it seems like it will be achieving a good response based on early review of its working interface. IBGX is based in Indonesia and is expected to have servers located globally, especially in locations where cryptocurrency trading has proven to be very popular and widely accepted.

The Unintended Consequences of Trump’s Aggressive Use of Economic Sanctions

ASPEN, CO, UNITED STATES, August 16, 2018 /EINPresswire.com/ — Last week I saw the “Mr. Rogers’ movie “Won’t You Be My Neighbor?” I’m definitely not a Mr. Rogers’ groupie. However, the irony of Mr, Rogers’ message of treating all people with kindness, courtesy and a belief in each person’s dignity juxtaposed with President Trump’s messages and actions of imposing severe economic sanctions on countries who have traditionally been our allies, is hard not to compare.

Certainly, no one can accuse our current president of a Mr. Rogers’ like attitude when it comes to his indiscriminate and aggressive use of economic sanctions. The use of economic sanctions is nothing new. President Woodrow Wilson stated after the end of World War I, “A nation that is boycotted is a nation that is in sight of surrender. Apply this economic, peaceful, silent, deadly remedy and there will be no need for force.”

Unfortunately, President Wilson and many Democratic and Republican administrations who followed him were too optimistic in believing economic sanctions would bring a country to its knees. A case in point is Cuba. Heavy sanctions were imposed on the country after the 1958 fall of the Batista regime. Sixty years later, even after the death of Fidel Castro, those sanctions have had virtually no effect in changing the country’s policies or regime.

You might be wondering why sanctions are a powerful U.S weapon. Economic sanctions work because of the role of the dollar in global finance and trade and the dollar’s role as the world’s primary reserve currency. According to the Bank for International Settlements, in 2016, 88 percent of all global financial transactions were settled in dollars. In the first quarter of this year, global reserves held in dollars were $6,499 trillion or 62.72% of all governmental reserves.

As long as the dollar remains the world’s main reserve currency the U.S. can use economic sanctions as a weapon. However, America’s aggressive use of economic sanctions is seen by allies as well as adversaries, as a bullying tactic. Those countries that were merely annoyed are now seething and resentful that the U.S. can use economic sanctions as a weapon based on the global role of the dollar.

China, Russia, and Brazil called for a global move away from the dollar in 2009 during the global financial crisis. China renewed this attack in 2013. Both of America’s largest creditors, Japan and China have recently cooled on owning U.S. Government bonds. These rumblings of discontent have so far fallen on deaf ears in the Trump administration.

Crude oil is almost always priced in dollars. China is the largest importer of crude oil and has recently begun buying oil in its own currency, the renminbi. The Chinese move to purchase oil in renminbi should be seen as a first step to increase global demand for its currency, and a threat to the role of the dollar

While any real threat to the pre-eminent role of the U.S. dollar in international trade and finance will likely take years to materialize, the Trump sanctions are definitely causing American friends and foes to seek alternatives. Unfortunately, this is occurring as the U.S. is finding it necessary to increase its borrowings to finance a growing deficit and as the Federal Reserve has started to shrink the size of its quantitative-easing policy.

It is not a comforting fact that earlier this year, a little over one year into the Trump presidency, the Treasury Department had added over 700 government agencies, people and companies to its economic sanction list.

We need to remember that much of America’s deficit and therefore what we consider to be our “American way of life” is financed by foreign countries holding their reserves in dollars. If the president’s aggressive and what I would call the impulsive use of economic sanctions continues, the acceleration of the decline of the U.S. dollar as the world’s primary reserve currency is inevitable.

There were always things you could consistently count on when watching “Mr. Rogers’ Neighborhood.” One was that speaking with care was important because all human beings have worth; being kind or nice was not a weakness; and Fred Rogers always made a distinction between imagination and reality. If only we had a president who could do the same.

Have a Magical Experience Onboard a Luxury Yacht and Explore the Depths of the Sea of Cortez with Private Scuba Diving Tours!

CABO SAN LUCAS, BAJA CALIFORNIA SUR, MEXICO, August 16, 2018 /EINPresswire.com/ — FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE: Operator of the highest rated luxury cruises is now offering voyages aboard luxury catamaran yachts along with a private luxury scuba diving experience. The luxury scuba diving holiday provider has announced they are now also offering private luxury scuba diving onboard a luxury catamaran yacht with state-of-the-art facilities and impeccable services.
At a recent launch event, the spokesperson for the company said, CABO YACHT WORLD is proud to announce that we have recently added a new yacht to our scuba diving excursions. We are extremely excited to have included a luxury Catamaran yacht ARISE to our fleet specially because we have a dive master on board that has been certified even for handicapped guests, and the addition of the new luxury Catamaran yacht is sure to add to the amazing experience.”
The Catamaran is a multi-hulled watercraft that features state-of-the-art facilities such as, two parallel hulls. That Catamaran is a geometry-stabilized craft, and derives its stability from its extra wide beam, rather than a monohull sailboat which has a ballasted keel. Thus, it offers complete comfort while sailing and scuba diving.
On answering a question, the spokesperson stated, “We are very happy with the inclusion of the new catamaran yacht to our scuba diving tour. The Catamaran offers the best in comfort and luxury, with spacious cabins, en-suite facilities and a sprawling deck along with salon areas.You can rest assured that our 64 ft. Catamarans have all amenities and equipment one would look for uninterrupted dives, making it the perfect vessel for exploring remote areas where underwater treasures are waiting to be explored in the sea of Cortez.”
The MY 64ft (19.51m) Lagoon Catamaran Yacht will be sailing to the relatively untouched Sea of Cortez, also known as the ‘Gulf of California’ which is considered to be one of the hot spots for biodiversity and marine life, along with a flourishing coral reef that’s just waiting to be explored. The sea is wedged between Baja California and the mainland Mexico with a sheltered and narrow outline, which results to mostly calm waters, making it an ideal spot for the best scuba diving experience possible.
He concluded by saying, “Our luxury scuba diving tour onboard a luxury catamaran yacht is perfect for people who love the sea. the Sea of Cortez is an amazing place to visit. The warm waters are relatively calm, with high mountains in a distance rise from the bluish-green sea and upwards to the blue sky. It is the perfect place to spend a full day with friends or family. Once below the water, you are freed from gravity, and experience absolute freedom. Guests on our luxury scuba diving tours will get to spot up to 900 different fish species. Gently touch them, sit on the ocean’s floor, or play with the sand, and feel like a true National Geographic explorer of the deep sea. The boat ride to and from the dive site is also a sight to behold, not only because of the amazing natural beauty of the surroundings but because Grey whales and Humpback are often spotted en route, which makes the experience magical.In short, it’s a great body of water to explore, and we’d love it if you would join us for this unforgettable adventure.”
Private luxury scuba diving onboard a luxury Catamaran yacht along with other tours are available for pre-booking by calling [01 52 624 168 9544] or emailing us at [caboyachtworld@gmail.com].

Employment Screening Resources® (ESR)

Noted Background Check Expert and Author of "The Safe Hiring Manual" will Speak at Global Event with 22,000 Security Professionals Attending from 100 Countries.

NOVATO, CALIFORNIA, UNITED STATES, August 16, 2018 /EINPresswire.com/ — Attorney Lester Rosen, founder and Chief Executive Officer (CEO) of leading global background check firm Employment Screening Resources® (ESR), will present a session entitled “Background Checks: Trends, Best Practices, and Legal Compliance” on Wednesday, September 26, 2018, during the 2018 Global Security Exchange (GSX) at the Las Vegas Convention Center in Las Vegas, Nevada.

“Without exercising due diligence with background checks, employers risk hiring workers with an unsuitable criminal record or falsified credentials that can result in a legal and financial nightmare,” explains Rosen, the author of ‘The Safe Hiring Manual.’ “However, the screening process has become more complicated due to federal and state legislation, litigation, and regulation.”

During the session – which is number 6311 and lasts from 3:45 PM to 4:45 PM PT – Rosen will discuss cutting-edge issues such as the use of social media for screening, fast-spreading “Ban the Box” laws, the U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) approach to the use of criminal records, and how to avoid class action lawsuits for alleged violations of the federal Fair Credit Reporting Act (FCRA).

Formerly the ASIS Annual Seminar and Exhibits, the 2018 Global Security Exchange (GSX) will take place from September 23 to 27, 2018. GSX is a global event with more than 22,000 security professionals attending from over 100 countries to explore the latest security solutions from more than 550 exhibitors and shape their security strategy in over 300 sessions.
