2023.03.25 00:26 Fishhhjet Menstrual and ovarian nightmare

21F, please help. I need to figure out what's going on. I've been to the ER five times in the last year for this and don't have solid answers.
I have recurring ovarian cysts. They've been coming every 2-4 months and cause issues for a month when they appear. This is my third cyst. The last one was 2.2" in diameter (the short side of a credit card). The pain comes in waves, and when I'm resting, it's 3/10. At its worst, it's 10/10 writhing in bed in agony. To bend over or flex my abdominal muscles hurts.
I have a cyst currently and went to the ER last week; anal bleeding also this time. The pain is not 10/10 this time but was 5/10 last night. Heat takes the edge off. Ice less so. Pain meds have to be strong to do anything. I worry about developing a dependence on pain meds if this continues. I've been meticulous about taking pain meds only when I have to. I've had pain after sex, vaginal bleeding, general full abdominal pain, gas, lethargy, nausea, unexplained weight gain, lower back pain, and trouble sleeping due to pain.
These started last August. Never had one before then. Things were going well; in a good, healing place mentally.
I've only gone to the ER out of desperation. They've done CTs and ultrasounds. They've taken blood and urine. My labs came back great. EKG says my heart is perfect. As of a year ago, MRIs for head, neck, and spine are regular. I haven't had a period in over six months (IUD). Negative for PCOS. No drugs, alcohol, or smoking/vaping. Never and not currently pregnant. No family history of menstrual issues. Obese but eating well. Not drinking enough water, but doing better. Thyroid issues on both sides of the family (hyperthyroidism AND hypothyroidism), but mine has been normal as far as I know.
Meds: vyvanse, venlafaxine, gabapentin, daily vitamin and hair, skin, and nails vitamin
Diagnoses: MDD (in remission), PTSD and C-PTSD (working on in therapy), Acute stress disorder (in remission), idiopathic hypersomnia (started Sept 2022; unexplainable), pending ADHD/Autism/Dyslexia diagnoses
History: sexual abuse, long-term severe psychological abuse, lifetime obesity that I'm working on currently
Could it be a psychosomatic response to sexual trauma (currently working on in therapy)? Does this fit the bill for endometriosis? Why do I continually have these, and how can I stop them?

Enterprise Group ($E.TO, $ETOLF.OTC): Cash Flow Machine, Deep Value, Squeeze Potential
Intro
I should start by saying that the search for a company like Enterprise began under the following pretense: I have a bearish view of where I think broad markets are going by the end of 2023 and wanted somewhere to hide out while still maintaining the potential to double my investment under any broad market scenario.
Enterprise Group fits that bill. The Company is a niche energy service company that provides site infrastructure services to remote western Canadian production sites for pipelines, construction and oil and gas sectors in western Canada. I believe Enterprise is a fantastic and deeply overlooked company fit for retail investors (like me) who have the ability to enter a position ahead of institutions catching hold of the name.
The core thesis on Enterprise is:
- Low correlation to broad markets
- High growth and 30% cash flow yield
- Healthy balance sheet providing ~$20M in dry powder for potential non-dilutive M&A
- Share buyback in place to support stock
- Unique low-emission fleet of equipment to grow market share
- Structural market expansion

History
Enterprise was founded in 2004, though as it stands today, is a much leaner and higher growth business compared to what it was in the last bull market for energy in 2008-2014. Where many competitors went out of business during the bear market between 2014-2021, Enterprise wisely divested from lower margin business units, preserved its balance sheet and due to its unique fleet of equipment – was able to maintain cash flow positive during this time. M&A is part of the corporate DNA of Enterprise and has had a successful track record on that front.
While others were still reeling from previous years downturn or still trying to repair their balance sheets in 2020/2021, Enterprise was able to utilize the strength of its balance sheet and positive cash flows to countercyclically invest into new business units to position themselves for the eventual return of energy markets we are now experiencing. A great example of this is the launch of Evolution Power in 2022, which offers a fleet of low-emission microgrids that power the entire production site with natural gas, replacing diesel generators. In doing so, EP reduces CO2 emissions by 30%, gives Enterprise higher margins, is safer and more efficient for the customer. As one of the few “green options” in the energy sector, they are becoming the first choice for larger oil and gas clients subject to Canada’s “heavy emitter” penalties.

Market
The large majority of Enterprise’s sales are derived from western Canadian energy producers, with a greater share of natural gas producers compared to oil producers within its book of clients. Though Enterprise profits have less commodity risk than their actual producing clients, the Company nevertheless is derivatively exposed to energy prices (though I believe there are some factors that reduce the correlation that I will get into later). After years of producers not investing into large exploration projects due to ESG mandates, regulations and low prices, the outlook on energy markets looks extremely promising for producers and has already begun to see a notable uptick in production levels that are expected to continue for a market that looks undersupplied in years ahead.
More specifically to Enterprise’s western Canadian market, there are some very visible demand drivers on the horizon based on new pipeline capacity that provide a near certain increase in demand for services like Enterprise. This demand is structured within tens of billions of dollars of sunk infrastructure capital to provide a roadmap of oil and gas (mostly gas) production expansion in western Canada. Beginning in 2023 with the completion of NGTL network expansion (gas) and TMX pipeline (oil), there will continue to be major new export capacity to come online nearly every year this decade, with recent first nations LNG projects advancing on the west coast.
For Canadian gas producers, the pipelines will allow them to access higher priced Asian markets, where prices are often multiples of those received in Canada or the US. You can bet there is going to be prompt increases to production to ship whatever they can to those markets, given the preferred economics.

Financials
Enterprise just recently released their full year 2022 financials March 20, 2023, where they posted fantastic results. Rather than do a deep dive into financials today, will simply share some important highlights and suggest reviewing their financials below: (https://www.sedar.com/DisplayCompanyDocuments.do?lang=EN&issuerNo=00020838)

https://preview.redd.it/ogc5c1c9hrpa1.png?width=1084&format=png&auto=webp&s=0fc4acc759557050f871276caaa8ce07de9c66a0
Additional items:
- Bought back 1.8M shares in 2022
- Secured US OTC listing to increase access to US investors
- Renewed buyback program
- Available tax losses of $0.17/share
- Purchased $5.6M of new equipment
- Subsequently signed one of largest contracts in company history in Jan 2023

Share Structure
Enterprise currently has 50.3M shares outstanding, with another 5M options exercisable at $0.45. Notably, management/board were buyers in the open market over the last few years and now hold over 40% of all shares outstanding.
This is where I think it gets uniquely attractive for us retail investors.
Since the last energy cycle, nearly all of the research analysts that covered the sector have moved on, meaning the few analysts left covering the space are focused on large-cap players and there are none covering companies the size of Enterprise. There is a window for retail to build a position in a hugely profitable company with a tight share structure subject to a potential squeeze before institutions begin to take notice.
Finally – and maybe most importantly – 2022 saw a unique trading dynamic occur due to a large shareholder selling down their position. This shareholder accidentally accumulated a >10% ownership position, unknowingly triggering a requirement to file any purchase/sale of stock (see sedi filings to confirm). That shareholder then spent the entire year reducing their position below 10% but because there was not a large float of shares trading hands, effectively put a ceiling on the stock the entire year and single-handedly compressed the multiple. This does not appear to have been done with ill intent but explains why the stock bounced between a floor of around $0.38 (supported by the buyback) and $0.42 (where the shareholder was selling) despite everything going right for the company operationally. In January, the company bought back the final tranche of shares needed to get that shareholder below the 10% threshold, thereby clearing the way for share price to better track the improving cash flow of the company.

Valuation
Enterprise is currently trading at a deeply discounted valuation and historically low multiple, which is ironic considering this may be the best market they've ever operated in. As a particular point of reference, a comparison below for the 2020-2022 periods for EV/EBITDA and some other metrics that could influence the deserved multiple such as growth, profitability, and credit risk. I’ve also already listed a few reasons to be bullish on their future market (pipelines coming online beginning this year), which is consistent with management’s outlook from their MD&A that “…customers have indicated they will continue to operate at increased activities through the remainder of the year”. Though a 10-11x multiple shouldn't be expected moving forward, you can see the impact of having a large shareholder exiting with a small float and how a lack of share price movement can lose investor attention. Over the course of a year, Enterprise added over $5M in EBITDA (+175%) and barely saw its valuation change at all!
*2022 year using current share price
At a current 4.2x EV/EBITDA, Enterprise is trading far below the 6x it has traded in previous cycles and which seems very reasonable as a base case scenario. It would take very little notional buying for that re-rate to occur and for those able to establish a position at these prices, it would represent a 74% return.
https://preview.redd.it/vhxfi754orpa1.png?width=867&format=png&auto=webp&s=c5e4b94325c510a57a9de0cf6caae70915db4f4d
Finally, if Enterprise is seen through a different valuation lens, the company just released in their earnings that equity holders would be due $0.68/share ($0.39 current share price) if the company simply sold all of their equipment at book value. Multiple arguments to show that Enterprise is undervalued.

Outlook
Enterprise has a strong outlook on market fundamentals to support top line growth, increasing pricing power to maintain/increase margins and new revenue potential coming online with equipment additions.
Given history of M&A activity, balance sheet flexibility and the fact some targets are still not fully recovered from 2014-2021 period, it would be very surprising if the company did not make one or more acquisitions in the near-future. Management has said as much on their recent twitter spaces interview.
Fortunately for equity holders, management does not have to dilute shareholders while its equity remains undervalued. With $20M in unused credit at their disposal (their current market cap), they would have the ability to make a material acquisition without needing any equity at all. Even if they were to make an even larger acquisition, their debt providers are Ninepoint Partners (via Waygar Capital), who are home to none other than Eric Nuttall, who is the largest and most bullish energy fund manager on earth. You can bet that if the right target came along with the right assets/cash flow, Ninepoint would be more than happy to increase the size of that facility if they aren’t able to secure some seller's financing. If we assume a slight liquidity discount on a PrivateCo acquisition, $20M at 3x EV/EBITDA could buy around $6-7M of incremental EBITDA, effectively doubling the “cash flow” of the company before considering any synergies. Prospect of cross-selling new rental equipment would be high.
If something like this came to pass and they grew to a $15M EBITDA business, there would undoubtedly be a whole new supply of small institutions that would be interested and could be an attractive buyout candidate for private equity, who they’re currently competing with for acquisitions.
Risk
Commodity Risk:
This being the most obvious risk to the company. If we were to go back to the dark ages (2014-2021), there would be a material impact on Enterprise financials. I believe commodity risk for Enterprise is mitigated for 3 reasons:
1) A decade of underinvestment in global energy supplies has the entire spectrum of energy prognosticators projecting supply deficits for oil and continued growth in global natural gas demand. Continued regulatory hurdles, ESG capital restrictions, end of US shale hypergrowth, and return-of-capital mandates by EnergyCo shareholders make it less likely we see reckless supply additions. Adding to that, we’ve now got China reopening, OPEC defending prices, and US supposedly refilling the SPR at some point (we’ll see).
2) Infrastructure Developments: Canada has abundant reserves, with some of the cleanest and lowest-cost natural gas in the world with a painful lack of export capacity. A number of pipeline and LNG export facilities are set to come online, incentivizing a production increase to fill that pipeline. To me, this is the most powerful reason why I believe Enterprise has much lower commodity risk and has been repeated by recent research put out by RBC on the prospects of NE BC natural gas outlook.
3) Tier 1 Client Book: Enterprise’s clients are some of the largest energy producers in North America, meaning they plan their development programs with a multi-year outlook that is less sensitive to short term price action. Further, many of its clients are actual providing the supply for LNG Canada (Sinopec, Petronas,
Market Downturn:
No doubt we are entering a period of uncertainty, with global liquidity being reduced and the risk of recession on the horizon. I think this should be viewed in two ways:
1) Operations: Looking back, more often than not a significant global recession is more likely to reduce the rate of growth in oil demand rather than actually reducing demand. Natural gas is mostly used for heating and electricity generation, making it relatively inelastic as well. Global GDP is also more evenly spread between OECD and non-OECD, meaning growing countries like India will be less responsive to tightening financial conditions.
2) Share Price: Enterprise is tracking towards a trailing 4x EV/EBITDA, with structural growth catalysts on the horizon (ie. pipelines) and excess cash flow available for buybacks. Even in a market panic, it is likely cash flows can continue to grow, providing continued support to the share price via buybacks.
3) Recent meltdown in energy markets had almost no impact on Enterprise share price and would suspect that increased buybacks would be there for support if share price were to slide further.
It is the risk-adjusted return with fundamentals to back it up that make Enterprise special within the micro-cap space.
Summary
1) Operating conditions look very strong for the company based on energy cycle and the foundation of new pipeline-related production increases in western Canada.
2) Enterprise is a pure-play on western Canada with major well-capitalized nat gas clients poised for growth.
3) Small size and cap structure provide potential for significant torque in share price.
4) Enterprise has debt flexibility such that they don’t need to dilute equity at these valuations if M&A opportunities arise.
5) Extremely profitable with 30%+ cash flow yield and optionality for buybacks or further investment in expanding equipment fleet for evolution power.
6) Significant selling pressure from large shareholder has now ended after tendering shares to treasury in January 2023.
7) A single large new shareholder has potential to re-rate the stock to base case of 6x EV/EBITDA multiple.
8) Equity re-rate and M&A could see this company become very large, very quickly – drawing further flows of capital to the name at sufficient scale or be a prime takeout candidate for PE.

I own shares in Enterprise. This is not financial advise. Please do your own due diligence.

2023.03.24 23:42 ratzy88 TLDR for those skipping the negro league videos like me

Here's the info on the players highlights in the leagues while we grind for the 90s and 95.
Satchel Paige:
Leroy Robert "Satchel" Paige (July 7, 1906 – June 8, 1982) . His career spanned five decades and culminated with his induction into the Hall of Fame. On town tours across the United States, Paige would sometimes have his Infielders sit down behind him and then routinely strike out the side. At age 42 in 1948, Paige made his debut for the Cleveland Indians ; to this day, this makes him the oldest debutant in the National League or American League history. Additionally, Paige was 59 years old when he played his last major league game. Paige was the first black pitcher to play in the American League and was the seventh black player to play in Major League Baseball.
Hilton Smith
Hilton Lee Smith (February 27, 1907 – November 18, 1983) was an American right-handed pitcher in Negro league baseball. He pitched alongside Satchel Paige for the Kansas City Monarchs between 1932 and 1948. He was inducted into the National Baseball Hall of Fame in 2001.
Often Paige would pitch the first three innings of a game, leaving Smith to pitch the remaining six. Also, unlike Paige, Smith was a very good hitter.
Rube Foster
Andrew "Rube" Foster (September 17, 1879 – December 9, 1930) was an American baseball player, manager, and executive in the Negro leagues. He was elected to the Baseball Hall of Fame in 1981.
He organized the Negro National League, the first long-lasting professional league for African-American ballplayers, which operated from 1920 to 1931. He is known as the "father of Black Baseball.
Hank Thompson)
Henry Curtis Thompson (December 8, 1925 – September 30, 1969) was an American player in the Negro leagues and Major League Baseball who played primarily as a third baseman. At the beginning of his career, he was a hard-hitting star for the Monarchs in the Negro American League, playing both infield and outfield. At 17, he played right field in his first season, batting .300.
The following year he was drafted into the Army. Thompson was a machine gunner with the 1695th Combat Engineers at the historic Battle of the Bulge.
With the start of the major league 1947 season, history was made when Jackie Robinson broke the color line with the Brooklyn Dodgers. Thompson was with the Browns a little over a month and hit only .256 in 27 games, mainly at second base. On August 23 he was released, and he rejoined the Monarchs through the 1948 season
Buck O'Neil
John Jordan "Buck" O'Neil Jr. (November 13, 1911 – October 6, 2006) was a first baseman and manager in the Negro American League, mostly with the Kansas City Monarchs. After his playing days, he worked as a scout and became the first African American coach in Major League Baseball. He was elected to the Baseball Hall of Fame in 2022 as an executive.
O'Neil's life was documented in Joe Posnanski's 2007 book The Soul of Baseball.
When Tom Baird sold the Monarchs at the end of the 1955 season, O'Neil resigned as manager and became a scout for the Chicago Cubs, and is credited for signing Hall of Fame player Lou Brock to his first professional baseball contract. O'Neil is sometimes incorrectly credited with also having signed Hall of Famer Ernie Banks to his first contract; Banks was originally scouted and signed to the Monarchs by Cool Papa Bell
Jackie Robinson
You must live under a rock if you dont know Jackie's story by now
John Donaldson)
John Wesley Donaldson (February 20, 1891 – April 14, 1970) was an American baseball pitcher in Pre-Negro league and Negro league baseball. In a career that spanned over 30 years, he played for many different Negro league and semi-professional teams, including the All Nations team and the Kansas City Monarchs. Researchers so far have discovered 718 games in which Donaldson is known to have pitched. Out of those games, Donaldson had over 420 wins and 5,221 strikeouts as a baseball pitcher. According to some sources, he was the greatest pitcher of his era.
Newspaper coverage of Donaldson games reveal 424 wins and 169 losses, 15 ties, and a winning percentage of .697. He also notched 5,221 strikeouts, an ERA of 1.37, and 86 shutouts against all levels of competition. He completed 296 of 322 starts (92%
Donaldson can be credited with 14 no-hitters, two perfect games, and dozens of one-hitters. He also has two 30 strikeout games, 11 games with more than 25 strikeouts (including two back-to-back 25 strikeout games), 30 games with more than 20 strikeouts, 109 games with more than 15 strikeouts, and a total of 203 double digit strikeout games. Donaldson could also hit well, batting .334 in over 1,800 at bats.
Martin Dihigo
Martín Magdaleno Dihigo Llanos (May 25, 1906 – May 20, 1971), called The Immortal and “The Maestro “, was a Cuban professional baseball player. He played in Negro league baseball and Latin American leagues from 1923 to 1936 as a two-way player, both as a pitcher and a second baseman, although he excelled at all nine positions and later as a manager.
He began his professional baseball career in the winter of 1922-23 at the age of 16 as a substitute infielder for Habana in the Cuban League. Over the course of his career, he played all nine positions. As a hitter, he led the Negro leagues in home runs in 1926 and 1935. As a pitcher, he once defeated Satchel Paige while Paige was touring Cuba.
Dihigo's career record in twelve seasons in the Negro leagues was a .307 average and .511 slugging percentage, with 431 hits, 64 home runs, 61 doubles, 17 triples, 227 RBI, and 292 runs scored in 1404 at bats. He drew 143 walks and stole 41 bases. As a pitcher, he went 26–19 with a 2.92 ERA, with 176 strikeouts and 80 walks in 354 innings
Martin Dihigo is the only player honored to be inducted into FIVE baseball halls of fame. The American, Cuban, Mexican, Dominican Republic and Venezuelan Baseball Halls of Fame.
I imagine the videos in MLB are very good and i plan to watch them later after i finish the Negro league missions and WBC stuff. Very cool to learn about these players. There were some incredible ballplayers unfortunately not given the opportunity to leave their mark on MLB because of their skin tone. Also seems like a good amount of these guys served in WWII

I made another guide on Sports Betting Arbitrage here, where I show you have you can make $500 per day, risk-free. I have personally made over $25,000 from sports betting and will answer any questions you have in the comments!

Basics of Sports Betting

Here are some common sign-up bonuses, terms and conditions (T&Cs), and sports betting lingo:

⭐⭐⭐ Unibet - 2nd Chance Bet (up to $200) – with Stake Takeback
---
Summary: Summing all of these guaranteed profits up, you can get $6,437.50 by completing all of these sign-up bonuses! Many of these same sportsbooks also offer promotions for active users that you can use as well (reload bonuses, boosted odds, refer-a-friend promos, etc.) so you can continue making money once you have done the sign-up promotion.

Finding Odds

How the Previous Section Assumes that Odds Work: If the Lakers play the Warriors and the Warriors moneyline is +100 on Fanduel, and since the Warriors will win 50% of the time (based on those odds) then the Lakers will also win 50% of the time. Because of this, based on expected payoffs, we assume Fanduel will have the Lakers moneyline at +100.
How Odds Actually Work: Fanduel obviously wants to make money, so if they put the Warriors at +100, they will put the Lakers at -150 to give Fanduel a nice chunk called a spread. This is inevitable in the sports betting industry because sportsbooks need to make money. Assuming the spreads are 20% (which is like a tax on each bet), instead of making the original $6,437.50 from the sign-up bonuses, you will only make $5,150.00, meaning you would lose $1,287.50 if you took that 20% spread!
How can we Save the 20% Tax: Software! Odds change every second of the day and after months of searching for odds manually, a very inefficient and time-consuming task, I finally found a tool called OddsJam. OddsJam screens millions of odds per second on hundreds of sportsbooks, including all the sportsbooks I’ve mentioned above. Using the OddsJam platform has saved me thousands of dollars and is the reason I was able to make so much off sign-up bonuses.
If you decide to start harvesting bonuses on sportsbooks, using OddsJam is a must and you can use my link and promo code “Firebet” at checkout for 25% lifetime discount (to ensure you get the discount, press on my link before signing up and enter the promo code at checkout)! Remember, this software can increase your earnings from the signup bonuses by $1,287.50💵❗You can make even more if you use the arbitrage tool, which I cover in a different guide (linked here).

Example of Doing a Sign-Up Bonus

Steps:
  1. Log into OddsJam and go to the Arbitrage Betting Tool (this tool comes with the industry plan)
  2. Once on the Arbitrage Betting tool, use the filters to find odds
  3. Find an opportunity on OddsJam and press the calculator to find how much to bet on each sportsbook
  4. Log into each sportsbook and place the bets!
  5. We have now completed part of our wagering requirements for Fanduel and Betano. We can repeat this process to harvest the sign-up bonus!

2023.03.24 21:25 Bandofbrahs Q4 competition roundup

Yes, it's nearly April, and the worst stragglers only issued their q4 reports yesterday. Big picture: lots of job losses, accelerating cash burns, and not much in the way of new business. Let's have a peek:
In no particular order:
Aeye--In CC, mentioned they had slowed production of their lidar for industrial uses in q1. Looking at "very minor volumes." Gave No guidance on the year. "We do intend to raise more capital." Exactly how they intend to do that with their radioactive penny stock is beyond me. In q4, they had to sue All Blue Falcons FZE for failing to follow through on a promise to buy $5m worth of shares. SMH. They can't even get an institutional investor to follow up on a promise to invest a measley $5m? Ay yi yi. Oh, and their CEO resigned. Revenue for q4 was 1.1m. Ended the year with 94m in cash.
Quanergy—filed for bankruptcy in December. Still around as a zombie-company, but this is the last time I'll bother reporting on them.
Microvision—The court jester of the lidar industry was at it again. Of course, there were no revenues. They haven't made one penny of cash since 2017. But the one thing they're good at is selling shares in dilutive ATMs. They sold 4.3m shares in December, then another 5m in January, and they're just getting warmed up. In one of the most bizarre business decisions of all time, Microvision--a company with very little cash and no revenue--acquired another bankrupt company (Ibeo). Subsequently, A lot of Ibeo contracts were cancelled. In their own words, they are “trying to resurrect” them. Of course, those contracts were so measly and low-margin to begin with they drove Ibeo to bankruptcy. The big news is they added 250 employees. TO A BASE OF 100!!! So they more than tripled their labor costs, to say nothing of the overhead expenses from acquiring new offices, etc. Cash balance feel to a measly 78m--considerably lower than the desperate Aeye. But the Michael Scott Paper Company of lidar will just stay in business by selling shares forever. Oh, and they “paused” sample sales. Yikes. Subsequent to the semester they held a disastrous demo of their lidar at CES, where the lidar was completely unable to see the black 15 feet in front of it or the black pants worn by some attendees. Mavin remains the technological equivalent of jumping off your garage roof with a pillow case for a parachute, but trying telling that to their angry, insecure CEO, who devoted his entire q4 conference call to a delusional and bizarrely personal attack on Austin Russell.
Aeva--revenues of 0.2, but they still have a whopping 323 in cash. As I've said many times, they raised a pile of cash that could circle the equator if laid out in thousand-dollar bills, so they'll be hanging around forever. They announced they are on the "development fleet" of a top-10 OEM. However, reading the transcript it seemed they were going to great pains not to say it was for robo-taxis. "This is for a higher-level automation product" was the closest they came to admitting it.
Ouster--Had a blah q4, finished with 122m in cash. Subsequently, merged with Velodyne and immediately started laying off Velodyne employees (220 for starters). All they wanted from Velodyne was the cash. It's impossible to get a handle on the combined company at this point.
Cepton--After the quarter raised $100m from their tier-one partner Koito. I'm not sure if Cepton is more like a dead-beat relative that keeps begging for cash, or just a straight up money pit. At any rate, I'm sure Koito rues the day they ever heard of them. They had 1.6m in revenues for the quarter. God only knows what their current cash position is. It's Microvision-level bad, to be sure, but whereas Microvision raises money on the backs of investors who can't afford it, Cepton just keeps calling Koito. Jun Pei, the likable CEO, made an interesting statement: "The plain fact is the winners right nowwith a well-defined automotive program will continue to be the winners because we go through all those sophisticated processes of bringing automotive components into the marketplace."
Baraja—hired Lincoln International LLC to find a strategic investor. In February 2023, released 75% of workforce. Entire teams laid off. Said customers had slowed down vehicle development.
Innovusion—was almost certainly the company alluded to in a Chinese article which, despite having put lidar on a car, hasn’t made a statement for several months (since January 2022) and is abolishing entire departments while restructuring. “There are signs the company’s development has encountered obstacles and business promotion is difficult.”
Innoviz—Finished 2022 with 186m in cash. Revs for the YEAR were a paltry 6m. Targeting 2023 revs of just 12-15m, which is awfully pathetic for a company that claims two large OEMs. Omer (Jan 2023) said that a lidar company makes 3x as much revenue as a tier one as it does as a supplier to a tier one. I think he said that to soften the blow when his investors belatedly realize that his forward order book was based on the complete cost of the lidar, not the revenue that would trickle down to Innoviz after Magna took its cut. Like literally every company, they said they are targeting 2 new customers. A second co-founder, Oren Buskila, left the board. I think Omer is officially the last man standing.
(A note of Innoviz's VW progress: VW had already delayed plans for autonomous passenger vehicles, doing to notorious failure of Cariad. On Dec 15 their board met to put the entire Audi Artemis project (which would have produced L4-enabled Porsche Sport, Audi Apollo, and VW Trinity) on ice. Those had already been delayed until 2028-29. New CEO Blume, wants to shift AV efforts to ID.Buzz-based robotaxis. All this affects Innoviz negatively, as it was contracted through Cariad to work on ADAS features for “the segment of autonomous vehicles,” which is seemingly gone.
Robosense—(August 2022)—added the “lidar edition” of a Great Wall Motors model. That had formerly been an Ibeo customer. Yet another blow to Microvision.
Hesai—IPO'd. Sold 62,000 units for ADAS in first 9 mos 2022, and about 18,000 spinners. Spinners sell for way, way more. Average unit price in 2019 was 17k. in 2020 was 12k. In 2021 8k. In 2022 down to 3.1k, because of all the ADAS lidars mixed in. Says current capacity of 20k/mo. Building a new facility in 2023 which will “eventually” be able to produce 1.2m. Revs for 9mos: 111m (102 from lidar).
Tu Simple ended developmental collaboration with Navistar and began extensive layoffs in December. Late December announced 25% of workers cut. That’s 350.
Embark (Luminar customer, alas)--won't be coming down for dinner anymore.
Pony— “Substantial layoffs” and restructuring.
Lumotive—Reportedly giving up on sensor development.
BYD—trying to develop in-house lidar, despite partnership with Robosense.
Nio—has a 300-person team developing its own lidar chips. Currently with Innovusion.
Locomation (av trucking)—shut down.

2023.03.24 19:07 DystopianAbyss [UPDATE] Received Debt letter for debt I don't owe - addressed to "The Occupier"

Original post can be found here .
As per sub rules, posting an update as this has now been resolved. Thank you again to everyone who gave advice on the OP. The same day I posted it, I did call Credit Style, upon being reassured on here that it is a legit company and not a scam.
The person on the line was friendly enough, but kept pushing for my name and details etc. I asked if they could tell me when the debt was incurred, and they said 2018/19. I told them I didn't even own the property until August of last year, upon which they said to please upload evidence of this via their portal. I uploaded a screenshot of a letter from my solicitor that said "Following your completion of purchase of the above property on 31 August 2022" etc.
I just now received an email from Credit Style that says: "Thank you for your correspondence. After reviewing your file, we have decided to close the account with us and send it back to the administrators. You will have no further contact from Credit Style Ltd."
Hence this is now resolved. I'd like to thank everyone again for their advice, you're such a helpful and friendly community here!
Have a good weekend.

Enterprise Group, Inc**. (TSX: E)** (the “Company” or “Enterprise”). Enterprise, a consolidator of energy services (including specialized equipment rental to the energy/resource sector), emphasizes technologies that mitigate, reduce, or eliminate CO2 and Greenhouse Gas emissions for small local to Tier One global resource clients.

One of the many unique services of Enterprise is the GHG mitigating technologies of subsidiary EPP.

https://preview.redd.it/h6e872085qpa1.png?width=343&format=png&auto=webp&s=735963a442f8fe38dd7dd21ce19619f14cab85dc
CEO Heather Johnson, CEO of the EPP (Energy Power Projects) subsidiary states; EPP will continue to invest in fuel-tolerant power generators so that we can be as adaptive as possible when the infrastructure is in place to transition into other fuels. We will continue to be early adopters of clean technology and industry innovation. We deliver value to our customers through emission reduction technology and support their ESG initiatives. Natural gas electrification is the future of energy evolution. Cleaner, quieter, safer and most importantly – Measurable.”
Evolution Power Projects is reinventing the way mobile power is provided on-site. This approach is in the interest of developing efficiencies, streamlining rental management, supporting critical service and promoting natural gas alternatives.
Our Concept to Completion Approach assists our customers in evaluating their overall power demand and offers innovative, low-carbon, environmentally responsible options.
Ms. Johnston was able to answer a few questions that will help Investors understand her approach and that of parent Enterprise Group.
Has the environmental mindset of oil and gas companies changed over the last years? If so, how so?
Yes. Global/financial/societal/political pressures have caused most large developers to step away from revenue-exclusive directives, privately balancing the cost/value of First Nations alliances, environmental reform and new societal standards while publicly demonstrating inclusive workforces, profit sharing in a variety of forms, stakeholder involvement, clean tech development and integration, and commitment to Net Zero Goals. Most big producers have been forthcoming and outspoken about migrating their resources and expertise into sustainable energy markets, with a pathway to get there. Nobody is saying step away from fossil fuel, but it is an expectation that Producers do a lot of the heavy lifting to assist us in reaching targets. Many Producers have found a voice and are trumpeting their efforts loudly via news releases, public/private partnerships, and social media to gain support. ESG has become the language of the industry. Well, let’s not exaggerate; profits and ESG.
Is there a measurable direction concerning GHG reduction? Do you see growth in the quest for oil and gas?
GHG Reductions are legislated provincially, with each province creating and rolling out rebates, grants and carbon credit programs to attract investment and incite new activity. The largest producers are receiving financial advantages for measurable improvements and are being mandated to measure and report metrics currently. I suspect the penalty and rewards to increase as time inches toward 2030. The quest for oil and gas is growing. Things are looking very promising.
What makes EPP unique?
(Quote above) Evolution will continue to invest in fuel-tolerant power generators so that we can be as adaptive as possible when the infrastructure is in place to transition into other fuels. We will continue to be early adopters of clean technology and industry innovation.
What is the general thought in the industry as to if and when alternative energy sources will dominate or replace a meaningful amount of current and future O&G production?
Every seminar and conference I have been to speaks of the basket of energy. It will take all types of clean energy production that we can muster and pile into the basket—to achieve net zero by 2050. One conference called this approach the ice cream shop: “We need every flavour of ice cream—even if vanilla and chocolate are the most popular. Eventually, we may see Fat Free Vanilla and Fat Free Chocolate in their cleanest version; but the likelihood that chocolate and vanilla will be less in demand is unlikely.
Obtaining generators and other equipment to mitigate GHG emissions for clients– do you find you can provide services in a timely fashion for clients?
There are no dates, no timelines, and no dominance mentioned. Will we ever reach the point where fossil fuels aren’t the dominant source? Hard to say. The language used today is that Fossil Fuels are needed. We need to continue bringing in technology to produce these fuels as cleanly as possible, eliminate reliance where we can offer alternatives where we can and invest in the pursuit. And be very proud of the efforts and achievements for clients and the environment.
(Side Note: If you do any reading on Plastic Penetration, it only spells out growing global dependence on petroleum, not less, for the next 15 years)
Plastic can either be ‘synthetic’ or ‘biobased .’Synthetic plastics are derived from crude oil, natural gas or coal. At the same time, biobased plastics come from renewable products such as carbohydrates, starch, vegetable fats and oils, bacteria and other biological substances. The vast majority of plastic in use today is synthetic because of the ease of manufacturing methods involved in processing crude oil. However, the growing demand for limited oil reserves is driving a need for newer plastics from renewable resources such as waste biomass or animal-waste products from the industry.

Energy reality dictates several things. First, we will still need fossil fuels for quite a while as Green Tech develops. Second, resource companies and suppliers such as Enterprise Group will need to continue, with its peers, to create the most benign production methods.
Companies like Enterprise have worked to develop these techs and will continue to do so. The fact that its services are sought out by existing clients, both local and global tier ones, should put it on investors’ radars.
The transition takes time. The development and provenance of that sea change will require a sustained increase in fossil fuel production as Green Tech follows a parallel path.
T his March, CEO OF JPMorgan Chase, Jamie Dimon, urged the Biden administration to develop a modern-day “Marshall Plan” to boost energy production within the US and decrease dependence on foreign oil imports against Russia’s invasion of Ukraine. According to Axios, he also pushed for investments in green tech like hydrogen power and carbon capture.

2023.03.24 16:39 SecretDecision3 Global markets tremble as Fed moves in and out

One

The mystery is solved. The recent huge shocks in the U.S. and European banking systems did not make the Fed press the "pause button" to raise interest rates; the European Central Bank and the Bank of England are not afraid of the dominoes knocked down by the collapse of Silicon Valley Bank.

On March 22, local time, the U.S. Federal Reserve Board (FOMC) announced that the benchmark federal funds rate was raised by 25 basis points to a target range of 4.75%-5%, the highest level of the rate since 2007; this is the ninth consecutive rate hike by the Fed, and also the second consecutive rate hike slowed to 25 basis points.

"The toughest interest rate decision of the Fed Chairman Powell's tenure." This is how the market describes this rate meeting. In the past two weeks, a storm triggered by the Fed's aggressive rate hikes swept through the banking industry in Europe and the United States, Silicon Valley Bank, Signature Bank collapsed one after another; the government brokered the emergency acquisition of Credit Suisse by Swiss banks; asset prices tumbled. Due to concerns about financial stability, the market hailed the Federal Reserve to suspend interest rate hikes; Goldman Sachs Group report even said that the pressure on the banking system has replaced inflation as the most pressing issue.

This round of cumulative rate hikes of 475 basis points, starting in March 2022, the Fed rate hikes gradually into the end, the dot plot implies that there is room for one more rate hike during the year; but the magnitude of the rate hikes, the pace of interest rate hikes is the fastest in the past 30 years of the five rounds of interest rate hikes.

On March 16, the ECB also raised rates by 50 basis points as expected, and on March 20, ECB President Lagarde admitted that the banking sector turmoil could force the ECB to suspend rate hikes if the recent market turmoil affects lending to eurozone businesses and households.

In fact, after the Federal Reserve, Switzerland, Norway and the Bank of England have announced interest rate hikes one after another. On March 23, local time, the Bank of England raised interest rates by 25 basis points, raising the policy rate to 4.25%, the highest level since 2008. It said continued signs of inflation suggest further rate hikes.

When the dovish March FOMC statement was released, the U.S. stock market was unperturbed, with the three major indices basically stable; unexpectedly, the heavy setback to U.S. stocks that day was U.S. Treasury Secretary Yellen, who said in Senate testimony on the budget for the new fiscal year that the U.S. government is not considering expanding the scope of federal deposit insurance - denying the March 21 market news that the government is considering extending insurance to all deposits. Yellen said in her Senate testimony on the new fiscal year budget that the U.S. government is not considering extending federal deposit insurance - denying the March 21 market news that the government is considering extending insurance to all deposits.

Under the haze of global banking turmoil, Fed Chairman Powell did not deny that he had considered suspending interest rate hikes, but the decision to raise interest rates was unanimously approved by the members; and inflation is still too high, the job market is still overheated, and interest rates will be raised to a higher level if necessary, and rate cuts are not expected as a benchmark during the year.

When Powell mentioned at the conference to continue to raise interest rates to curb high inflation; Yellen, who is testifying in the Senate, the above statement caused U.S. stocks to plunge, U.S. bank stocks, including the first Republic Bank and other regional banks fell sharply during the day, spreading to the broader market, the three major U.S. stock indexes all retracted intra-day gains turned down.

After the FOMC statement was released, the S&P 500, 10-year U.S. bond yields, the dollar index fell sharply, and spot gold prices rose sharply. By the end of the day, the S&P 500 index fell 1.7%, the 10-year U.S. bond yield fell 18 basis points to 3.44%, the dollar index fell 0.6% to 102.6, spot gold rose 1.5% to $1969.6 per ounce. Xiong Yuan, chief economist at Guosheng Securities, believes that this combination of asset price performance is typical of recessionary trading, and the trading logic behind it reflects the fact that the Fed, on the one hand, said that the banking crisis could trigger a credit crunch and thus hurt the economy, but at the same time maintained its stance of not cutting interest rates during the year, leading to increased market fears of a recession.

However, after the testimony on the 21st led to a huge shock to the market, on March 23, Yellen reassured the market again, saying she was prepared to take new actions to protect deposits if necessary to ensure the safety of the banking situation; or to use important anti-risk contagion tools again.

After several major central banks raised interest rates, local time on March 23, Europe FTSE, Germany DAX France CAC closed 7499.60 (-0.89), 15210.39 (0.04%), 7139.25 (+0.11%); U.S. stocks opened up sharply, but the Dow, Nasdaq, S&P 500 finally closed 32105.25 (+0.25%), 11787.40 (+1.01%), 3948.71 (+0.30%).

The dollar index was at 102.28 intraday and the euro was at 1.087 against the dollar; the offshore yuan was at 6.818 against the dollar.

And related statistics show that market volatility was three times higher than that of the previous chairmen who tended to reverse the market's initial reaction to the committee's statement when Powell held his press conference.

In fact, before the March FOMC meeting, Franck Dixmier, Chief Investment Officer of Allianz Global Fixed Income, expected the Fed to raise rates by 25 basis points as core inflation remained high; its view was that the regional banking crisis created much uncertainty about the magnitude of future rate hikes, while investors' expectations of rate cuts put pressure on fixed income markets and any further revisions would lead to market volatility.

"Investors' expectations of a rate cut (90 basis points between June and December 2023) have become an unfavorable factor for the U.S. fixed income market. These aggressive expectations trigger market volatility and may put pressure on the middle of the yield curve." Franck Dixmier believes.

In times of storms, crises abound. "Danger" or "opportunity", fear is fleeting, one day ignite hope, the next day can be extinguished; and vice versa. And the market tremor is also in the transmission of some kind of instability and panic.

Two

In detail, the European and American banking crisis "shock", in the explicit goal of "anti-inflation" and stable policy objectives "financial stability", the dilemma of the Fed does have to choose between.

For example, although the Fed raised interest rates, but not 50BP, and the FOMC statement implies that the current round of interest rate hikes process is coming to an end.

At the macro level, the market consensus is that the Fed's aggressive rate hikes have led to a spike in market interest rates as a major cause of the banking crisis. The Fed is concerned that further stimulation of the market will lead to a collapse of its confidence in the U.S. banking sector. Therefore, some concessions, but did not press the rate hike "pause button", which may be to avoid conduction to the market speculation that the potential problems of the U.S. banking industry is very serious, thus triggering further panic in the market; furthermore, the Fed's inflation control work has not been completed.

"The Fed's 25 basis point rate hike is in line with expectations, and anti-inflation remains the primary goal." Wen Bin, chief economist at Minsheng Bank, believes that the Fed remains strongly committed to keeping inflation down to its 2% target, although FOMC members believe there are downside risks to economic growth; current U.S. payroll growth, while showing some signs of slowing, is still well above the long-term target of 2% for overall inflation, and the labor market is too tight to go a long way from reaching that target.

The Fed also released the latest installment of its economic outlook, lowering its 2023 gross domestic product growth estimate to 0.4% and its 2024 GDP growth estimate to 1.2%. At the same time, it raised this year's PCE inflation forecast to 3.3%, core PCE inflation forecast to 3.6% and lowered the unemployment rate target to 4.5%.

After the Silicon Valley Bank fiasco, the Fed raised interest rates by 25BP in March and expanded its table by nearly $300 billion through loan instruments. Data show that in the week of March 8 to March 15, the Fed balance sheet size increased by $ 297.6 billion. In terms of composition, the expansion was dominated by discount window loans ($148.3 billion) and FDIC loans ($142.8 billion), with a low share of new liquidity instruments BTFP ($1.2 billion). How to understand this seemingly contradictory policy mix?

In the view of Zhou Junzhi, chief macro analyst of Minsheng Securities, it is difficult for the liquidity from the Fed's expansion to flow into financial assets and the real economy for the purpose of "big release" and "big easing". These funds are mainly used to meet short-term liquidity needs, and medium- and long-term monetary tightening policy does not conflict. This also explains Powell's statement at the conference that "while the recent liquidity provision has increased our balance sheet, the intent and impact is different, with the balance sheet expansion reflecting short-term lending". It said that the recent balance sheet expansion is due to the bank bailout measures, does not represent the monetary policy stance, has not yet considered revising the tapering plan.

"From public information, the Fed has chosen a 'short dove and long hawk' approach to the banking sector storm." Zhou Junzhi believes. The "short dove" is mainly reflected in two points: the Fed will maintain the 2023 terminal rate at 5.1%, without further upward adjustment; secondly, the Fed will change the statement "continued rate hikes are appropriate" to "some additional Policy tightening is appropriate. This wording change seems to convey the signal that the May meeting will usher in the last rate hike.

In addition, the Federal Reserve slightly raised its interest rate forecast for 2024. At the same time, Powell stressed that "the baseline case this year is still no rate cuts". This is the Fed in conveying long-term hawkish signals to deal with inflation risks. The Fed's attitude in this meeting

attitude also implies that "financial stability has not given way to price stability".

Three

So, what happens next? In terms of monetary policy, in the short term (FOMC statement and statement) is indeed a dovish expression, the Fed will not choose to take the risk of raising interest rates beyond expectations when financial risks occur. But for economic growth, Zhou Junzhi believes that this means that the future "hard landing" may be the only direction of the U.S. economy.

Zhou Junzhi analysis, for the Fed, the future of only two situations: one is the bank credit conditions due to the Silicon Valley Bank incident and significantly tightened. The other scenario is that U.S. banks' credit conditions do not tighten consistently, at which point the Fed may have to raise interest rates beyond expectations in response to inflationary pressures. "We believe that the U.S. economy is likely to end its "tight money-easy credit" status since 2022 and head into recession in the future."

As mentioned earlier, the current portfolio of asset price performance is a classic recession trade.

In Franck Dixmier's view, in just two days last week, tensions in the U.S. banking system led to a major adjustment in the U.S. yield curve, triggering a sharp correction in market expectations for a Fed rate hike. Last month, investors appeared to make concessions, adding 100 basis points to their expectations of the Fed's terminal rate at the end of February compared to the beginning of the month. However, stress in the banking system reduced this expectation to almost zero, and investors now expect the Fed to cut rates by the end of the year. This unusual event completely overturned Fed Chairman Jerome Powell's speech to Congress in early March.

Although Franck Dixmier believes that the crisis currently exists only in regional banks, it is still too early to think that the event is now over, considering that banking crises often trigger a crisis of confidence in the market and depositors and lead to irrational market moves. A continued crisis could tighten liquidity and cause the Fed to suspend interest rate hikes. If the crisis can be resolved quickly, the Fed will continue its path of rate hikes. "But regardless of the level of terminal interest rates, we think the Fed will keep rates at a high level."

However, according to Bridgewater founder Rui Dalio, one cannot raise interest rates high enough to curb inflation or to enable holders of assets that are subject to inflation to be repaid, and a hard push to raise rates that high is bound to have a negative impact on economic activity.

Who would have thought that industry (the real world) might be more hurt by the global central banks' dilemma while the markets tremble and try to find certainty.

The high interest rates resulting from the Fed's continued aggressive rate hikes have not only punctured the tech bubble, but also burst the bubble of the short-term debt cycle and lifted the lid on the confidence crisis in the U.S. banking sector.

Now, unicorns are falling in droves. In the same week as the Silicon Valley bank run, Embark, a U.S. self-driving truck unicorn, reportedly announced its collapse, with 70% of its employees laid off and 30% left to handle the company's shutdown process. "Capital abandoned us, and we couldn't raise capital." said Alex Rodrigues, the company's founder.

Industry sources believe that high interest rates and the bankruptcy of Silicon Valley banks may bring more turmoil to the U.S. technology industry. Rising interest rates are making it increasingly difficult for startups to get funding, hindering them from improving their valuations and implementing ambitious projects.

Bear Park then suggests: the core risk of the U.S. economy in corporate debt rather than the banking sector, which has now begun to accelerate the release of corporate debt risk, with the probability of a recession in the first half of the year. Whether the Fed raises interest rates again in May is uncertain, but even if the May rate hike, June or July may still cut interest rates, and the rate cut before the end of the year may be up to 100 basis points.

"Silicon Valley Bank bankruptcy, the surface reason is the failure of the investment strategy, the underlying reason is the corporate financing dilemma resulting in the depletion of deposits, that is, the U.S. corporate debt pressure is high, it is difficult to withstand a significant increase in interest rates." Xiong Yuan analysis, "the current scale of U.S. corporate debt defaults has risen significantly, banks have begun to contract credit to the public, which may lead to a recession in the first half of the economy."

A comparison of the U.S. federal funds rate and CPI trend curve (2009-2023) will show that the benchmark rate has remained at 0-0.25% between 2009 and 2015, while the CPI has been as low as -2.1% (July 2009) and as high as 3.9% in September 2011.

Between December 2015 and December 2018, the Fed began its fourth round of rate hikes, which lasted 36 months, with nine hikes totaling 225 basis points and an increase in the benchmark rate from 0.00% to 2.25%, during which time the CPI was as high as 2.9% (July 2018) and as low as 1.6% in January 2019.

Looking at January 2020 to date, the CPI is as low as 0.1% in May 2020 and as high as 9.1% in June 2022; the prime rate is as low as 0.00% from March 2020 to March 2022; and as high as 4.75% in March 2023; but looking at it in detail, it is easy to see that the CPI gradually lifts from January 2021, all the way up to 2021 The CPI rose gradually from January 2021 to 5.4% in May 2021, and then slightly retreated to 5.3% in August 2021, but then quickly soared to 9.1% in June 2022.

The Fed's fifth round of interest rate hikes began in March 2022, but the CPI had already soared to 8.5%; so the Federal Reserve stepped up to the plate and raised rates, and within a year, the benchmark rate soared to 4.75%. How can such a radical interest rate sensitive entities or market institutions not be "painless"?

I wonder if the Fed, which has admitted to underestimating inflation, will make another mistake? After underestimating inflation and overestimating the ability of interest rate hikes to suppress inflation, Tianfeng Securities suspects that, judging from the minutes of the previous rate meetings, the Fed may be making a third mistake - relying too much on employment indicators as a basis for judging economic conditions, and as a result underestimating the timing of the coming recession.

Could it be that the Fed is "betting big"? Wall Street warned: later this year to cut interest rates are too late to ease the pressure on debt-ridden companies.

According to foreign media reports, investment strategy analysts believe that the Federal Reserve officials may be "betting" banking liquidity crisis and the resulting contraction of the credit environment is finally under control, will not unduly endanger financial stability and economic "soft landing". But the likely reality is: U.S. financial conditions have deteriorated to their worst level since May 2020; the U.S. banking industry has begun to tighten lending standards across the board.

A "hard landing" or a "hard landing"? Between the Fed's advance and retreat, the market trembles more than the first "recession" when the transaction, debt companies also "tremble" non-stop ......

2023.03.24 15:01 PhilipCMS ShiftCarbon (SHFT.CN) Wins 5M USD Saudi Smart City Contract

ShiftCarbon (SHFT.CN) Wins 5M USD Saudi Smart City Contract
ShiftCarbon (SHFT.CN) is a platform that allows clients, large and small, to measure their GHG emissions comprehensively, set reduction goals, and embed carbon offsetting into their business.
https://preview.redd.it/4cgdm3m31ppa1.png?width=564&format=png&auto=webp&s=846b5e69fcf5f9a6bd6a084cb974b752aaf3bdee
To gain a foothold in this socially responsible sector that also encompasses superior growth potential, SHFT is a viable and direct proxy.
According to the Corporate Credit Institute, a carbon credit is a tradable permit or certificate that provides the holder of the recognition the right to emit one ton of carbon dioxide or an equivalent of another greenhouse gas. The main goal for creating carbon credits is to reduce emissions of carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases from industrial activities to reduce the effects of global warming.
https://preview.redd.it/bph3rzb91ppa1.png?width=1325&format=png&auto=webp&s=8578bafbf449d777190648f85e742f4b7dbc16ee
On February 23, 2023, ShiftCarbon announced a USD$5 million engagement with Saudi Arabia’s behemoth solutions by stc.
For context, here are its latest numbers:
1 SAR=$3.75 USD
• Revenues for 2022 totalled SAR 8.8 billion (USD$33 billion), an increase of 22.2% compared to SAR 7.2 billion for 2021
• Net profit for 2022 rose to SAR 1.054 billion, up from SAR 833 million, a year-on-year gain of 26.5%
• The company’s strong financial performance can be attributed to the acquisition of “Giza Systems,” which marked an increase in company revenues for Q4 2022
Commenting on the financial results for 2022, Eng. Omer Abdullah Alnomani, CEO of solutions by stc, stated, “Our exceptional financial results for 2022 are a testament to our commitment to business growth and expansion in the Kingdom. We continue to work relentlessly within the framework of our ambitious strategy to maintain our position as a digital transformation leader in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia and the region.
This deal is big news for ShiftCarbon. Not only does it provide significant revenue, it also puts the Company in line for the future massive ‘Smart Cities’ build of solutions by stc. Again, context. That project is expected to have USD$14 billion spent in 3-4 years. The Green Finance accredited facility is set to run solely on renewable energy and has the highest Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED) rating for sustainable urban planning.
In August 2022, the company announced its partnership with Saudi Arabian’s publicly-listed technology giant to build and offer innovative solutions to customers across the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. The two companies have now started working together to deliver a full suite of Smart City infrastructure to one of the world’s most ambitious luxury regenerative tourism destinations that aims to set new standards in sustainable development.
SHFT Wayne Lloyd states, “It is an honour to finally kick off this historical engagement with our partners at solutions by stc. We are grateful to have been selected to participate in such a massive undertaking that aims to set new standards in sustainable development and further strengthen the position of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia on the global tourism map. We are thrilled to have our vision for smart cities embraced by the most valuable telecom brand in the Middle East.”
The critical sentence in the recent PR for potential and current shareholders is, “The first phase of revenue from this project is estimated to be US$5 million with the potential for additional revenue in the form of a long-term supply of goods as the smart city becomes operational.”
While the engagement may be small by solutions by stc numbers, it represents an amount equivalent to CDN$ 6,808,510, more than twice the Company’s Market Cap.
With potentially way more to come and as a proxy for the various technologies, SHFT, unlike competitors, has gone global with a group with potentially bottomless pockets.
Certainly, worth a hard look.

2023.03.24 15:00 Auto_Fac T4E Calculations, wild variations from WealthSimple & Understanding our Tax Situation

Hey all,
Sorry to be yet another tax question, but things this year seem wildly different with our taxes and I am trying to wrap my head around why, because to me something feels a bit off and I am not sure what it is.
I am also not sure what information I need to provide, so I'll do my best, and happy to provide more if it will help:
ME:
T4 Line 14: $49,433 Line 22: $2,160 Box 30: $12,000 (Clergy Residence Deduction) Box 85: $3,375
T4A Box 105: $5,000 (research/study grant)

WIFE:
T4: Line 14: $6,793 Line 22: $59.66
T4E: Box 7: 30% (Repayment Rate) 14: $14,389 (Total Benefits Paid) 15: $13,889 (Regular & Other Benefits) 22: $1,493 (Income Tax Deducted)

OTHER:
Charitable Donations: $1,300
Medical: $201
Tuition Carryover: $7,399 (wife)

So, stupid us, we forgot that my wife had received EI through to August and she had forgotten to look at Service Canada, so we filed last night without it and I was owing what WealthSimple had said I would - $220 - and, according to her T1 she was going to be credited $80.
The Express Notice of Reassessment for her came back with her owing ~$860 as CRA saw the T4E that we forgot to add.
I just went back to WealthSimple to add it, amend the T1, and refile, and we also removed the Canada Worker Benefit which, according to WealthSimple and my own calculations we were entitled to but likely aren't now with the T4E added in, and suddenly my wife is receiving $629 but I am owing $2,436
It looks like my wife paid tax on the EI, so after digging I learned that if that number in Box 7 of the T4E is 30% it means you may be repaying a portion of the EI as you were given more than you were entitled to, but in CRA documentation it says the following:

You have to repay part of the EI Benefits (Line 11900) that you received in 2022 if all the following conditions are met:
* there is an amount in Box 15 of your T4E
* The rate in box 7 is 30%
* The result of the following calculation is more than $75,375:
Line 23400; minus
Line 11700 and line 12500; plus
line 21300 and/or the amount for a repayment of RDSP income included on line 2320
Based on my wife's T4E she meets the first two conditions, but the result of the calculation from her T1 with the T4E added in is only $21,158.14?
My Question then is: does this seem right? Why the sudden jump in my tax - we have never owed this much before and it seems higher than I would expect.
Does the part about my wife's T4E seem correct, or like there is an error?
And further, if this is right, can anyone fill me in as to why what we owe made the jump? I don't understand a great deal about how these things are calculated and, if this is right, would just like to know more about why.
Thank you in advance

Fremantle
FremantleMedia (doing business as Fremantle) is a British-based media conglomerate company founded on August 20, 2001, as a merger of Pearson Television and CLT-UFA; the companies merged to become "RTL Group" and by renaming the production arm to FremantleMedia, who currently owns the All American, Mark Goodson, and Reg Grundy libraries, among other formats. In 2003, FremantleMedia acquired Australian production company Crackerjack Productions, who merged with Grundy Television to form "FremantleMedia Australia". On September 7, 2018, the company changed its onscreen name to simply "Fremantle," though FremantleMedia remains its legal name. Today, Fremantle is a division of the RTL Group, and is 90% owned by German media conglomerate, Bertelsmann SE & Co. KGaA, which is 80.9% owned by the Bertelsmann Foundation and 19.1% owned by the Mohn Family.

For Australia, the word "AUSTRALIA" would appear under the name. For Poland, "POLSKA" would appear under the name in a basic font (either Arial or Helvetica).
  • Starting in 2005, the logo was remade in HD, and a 5th paint drop was added.
  • In some cases, the variant where the paint drops randomly appear.
  • The Polska version has as very rare version with the "POLSKA" text in a non-bold Futura. It was seen on Kuba Wojewódzki, old Familiada episodes, and Season 1 of Brzydula.

Some episodes of US TPIR from 2001 & 2002 (like the first "Million Dollar Spectaculars") also have this logo. In the Finnish TV quiz show Voitto kotiin from 2002, the black text and a blue atom are seen quickly fading in on a white background. This variant is also used in games based on TV shows. An in-credit version was seen on the first 2 seasons of Tree Fu Tom, along with the second series of Kate & Mim-Mim (with white text), while season 1 of Kate & Mim-Mim used an in-credit variant with the white background.
  • Another variant of the early version has an enlarged second half of the blue atom on a white background on the first half, beside it is a small FremantleMedia logo. Copyright information is below.
  • The logo is on right such as Philippines Got Talent (blue atom, black text on white background).
  • A long version exists. In this version, a splash of white paint flies through the air, going from left to right. Then, it fades into a scene of two more splashes: one other direction, and the other flying down from left to right. Afterwards, it fades in to what is described in the more commonplace short version.
  • Some versions of this logo are stretched out, such as the one appearing after episodes of The Price Is Right $1,000,000 Spectacular from 2008.
  • On the 2014 Australian version of Family Feud, the short version of the logo is superimposed onto a blue background with a shining yellow line on top of it, This is superimposed onto the final few seconds of the program.

  • On some BBC airings of Neighbours, the URL "www.bbc.co.uk/neighbours" appears below.
  • The logo appeared superimposed, inside a box, on the pilots for Whammy! The All-New Press Your Luck and later episodes of 100 Mexicanos Dijeron (Mexico's version of Family Feud). The fully animated logo also appeared on ¿Que Dice la Gente?, inside a box (with a white border), against a black background.
  • On Portugal's O Preco Certo (em Euros), the phrase "Uma producao RTP executada por:" ("An output performed by RTP") appears above the logo, and is true for all shows on RTP from the company.
  • The French version of Going for Gold, titled Questions pour un Champion has the logo superimposed into a blue rippling background, and after it finishes animating, a copyright stamp appears under the logo.

  • On the UK DVD release of Count Duckula: Vampire Vacation, the URL “www.fremantlehomeentertainment.com” appears below the logo.
Technique: Computer animation, mixed with live-action footage.
Music/Sounds: First, we hear a low guitar strum, segueing into a synthesized percussion-driven instrumental. It then culminates with a three-strum guitar jingle, the last note of which echoes. This was composed by Score Productions, which did music for The Price is Right, Family Feud and the 1986 Lorimar-Telepictures logo.
Music/Sounds Variants:
  • In other cases, the end-title theme plays over, the generic network theme on CBS, ABC, NBC, Fox or The CW, or it's silent.
  • High tone and low tone variants exist, with the low tone variant appearing on Baywatch, episodes of The Price is Right on the 2008 DVD "Best of" set, episodes of Family Feud from season 14 and onward, and all game shows aired on Buzzr.
  • A long version exists. It uses the extended version of that theme, complete with a piano note in the middle of the sound.
  • There is a very short version with the last four notes of the theme.
  • On Challenge's airings of Strike It Lucky in the UK, the end of the theme plays over the logo on the first two seasons; on the third season the logo jingle plays, cutting of the theme music presumably due to a plastering error.
    • A similar variant of this theme exists when Challenge airs the 1995 series of Bruce's Price is Right where it cuts off the theme music due to plastering.
  • On DVD releases of the 1983 television film Adam, the closing theme of this movie is heard, and, after the logo has finished, then the short version of the 1978 Alan Landsburg Productions theme over the finished logo. The ALP logo is seen before the FremantleMedia logo.
  • On Where the Hell's that Gold???!!! on its DVD release, it uses the low tone variant of the 1997 Pearson Television music on the "North America" version, as a result of double plaster.
  • There is a variant that have the long version jingle played on the common variant "paint bubble", thus freeze-frame for a few second.
  • On Komunikata, a voiceover in Indonesia says "Komunikata is a production of FremantleMedia in association with TPI. Nusrin Nuerdin speaking". The closing theme is used (sometimes after the jingle plays).
  • On current prints of Series 1 of Count Duckula, the downpour of rain is heard, this is due to plastering over the 1969 Thames Television logo.
Availability: Very common.
  • Short Version
    • With the sounder, it can be seen on the current version of Family Feud in syndication and GSN, the second season of Whammy! The All-New Press Your Luck on GSN, live editions of Fox's American Idol, The Price is Right, and Let's Make a Deal on CBS, Grojband on Teletoon and Cartoon Network, Max Steel on Disney XD, and Buzzr airing of Match Game (in lower pitch, nonetheless).

    • It was also sighted on The Aquabats! Super Show! on Hub Network (before the rebrand to Discovery Family), My Babysitter's a Vampire on Disney Channel, and Monsuno on Nicktoons.
    • With the sounder, it can be found on ¿Que Dice la Gente? (the Spanish-language version of Family Feud) on Telefutura, on DVD releases of American Idol, Match Game, Family Feud, and The Price is Right, Fatal Love (plastering over ACI logo), The Moving of Sophia Myles (plastering over Pearson TV International logo). and was also seen on Temptation: The All-New Sale of the Century, when last seen on MyNetworkTV. It also appears on S1 and S2 episodes of Asia's Got Talent on AXN, following the Sony/SPT (S1), or Sony Pictures Television Networks (S2).
    • It is also used as a de-facto home video logo in the United Kingdom, Germany, and the United States (in the latter country, Fremantle licenses its content to thrid-party distributors, but their logo is followed by this logo).
    • Also appears at the end of current prints of Count Duckula, either by plastering over the Thames Television logo (on episodes from Series 1) or being seen after the Thames Television logo (on episodes from Series 2) and being seen after Cosgrove Hall Productions's second logo (on episodes from Series 3).
    • It also appears on 2014-2018 Familiada episodes.
    • The Polska version appears on Season 1 of Brzydula and later episodes of Kuba Wojewódzki.
Legacy: It's not seen as popular due to its wide prevalence on television, in part due to its plastering older logos, though it's not on the scale of Sony Pictures Television, 20th Television or CBS Television Distribution.

Fremantle

(September 10, 2018-)

Logo: On a black background, two shots fade in and out depicting the letters "Fr" and "e" in white being written out in cursive. A third shot shows a cursive white "m" being drawn, which zooms out to reveal the words "Fremantle" being drawn out in cursive handwriting. The stem of the "t" is the last of the lettering to be drawn after the zoom out.
Variants:
  • A shorter version with the first two shots omitted has also been shown.
  • An in-credit version appears on The Price Is Right, accompanied by a revised announcement: "This is (announcer's name) speaking for The Price Is Right, a Fremantle production."
  • On some older shows distributed by Fremantle, the text "Distributed by" or "Produced and Distributed by" appears above the logo.
  • There is a still version of the "Distributed by" variant. This is seen on the Jack the Ripper miniseries.
  • Rarely, the theme plays over a black screen. This has appeared on Buzzr airings of a 1972 episode (#1662) of What's My Line?, episode #530 of Match Game '75, and episode #1331 of Match Game '78.
  • A version stretched from 4:3 to 16:9 appeared on programming aired on Buzzr around May 20, 2021 due to a scaling error.
  • On the 2022 Filipino version of Family Feud, no logo is featured at all, just a copyright stamp on a black background. However, starting with a March 25, 2022 episode (episode 3), the script, in still form, appears before the stamp. Starting with episode 6, aired in March 30, 2022, the full animation plays, but sped up in order to fit with the show's runtime.
  • A zoomed-in variant also exists as well.
Technique: 2D animation by Venturethree.
Music/Sounds: A dramatic three-note orchestral string theme followed by a chorus stinger when the stem of the "t" is drawn. This was composed by Reuben Shaljean.
Music/Sounds Variants:
  • The shorter version cuts out the first two notes.
  • On CBS programs, the network's guitar-driven generic theme from the 2003-04 on-air look (which is slightly high-pitched since 2008) is used.
  • ABC and NBC airings used the respective channels' generic themes.
  • Sometimes, the logo has the previous logo's theme if it plasters that logo, or the show's ending theme.
  • High tone and low tone variants both also exist.
  • Rarely, the theme is slightly re-arranged.
Availability: Current and very common.
  • It first appeared on the September 10, 2018 episode of Neighbours.
  • It debuted in the U.S. on the September 11, 2018 episode of America's Got Talent and later appeared on both The Price is Right and Let's Make a Deal on the 17th of that same month.
  • The logo also appears on most of the shows airing on Buzzr, replacing the previous logo, starting with the newly acquired Classic Concentration.
  • The logo should appear on newer episodes of American shows and Australian shows that once bore the previous logo.
  • The logo also appears on new and future American and Australian shows such as Unleashed, Game of Talents, Lie With Me and About Last Night, among others.
  • It also appears on its rebooted game shows that they own like Card Sharks, Press Your Luck and Supermarket Sweep.
  • Season 20 of Family Feud also began using this logo on October of 2018.
  • Another place the logo appears is on S3 episodes of Asia's Got Talent.
  • Currently appears on the 2022 Filipino version of Family Feud (in still and animated forms starting with the episodes stated above).
  • The logo has started to plaster the previous logo on prints of older shows outside of the United States as well.
  • It can also be found on later prints of the miniseries Jack the Ripper (1988) and also on HD remasters of Baywatch, currently on Amazon Prime and Pluto TV.
  • As with the last logo, it appears as a de-facto home video logo in the United Kingdom and Germany, as well as American DVDs of Fremantle content released by third party companies.
  • Seen also on season 2 of Brzydula and Familiada episodes from 2018 onwards.
  • It also appears at the end of the pilot to Wreck and the US prints of Planet Sex with Cara Delevingne, respectively as well.

Unveiling the Enchanted Realm of MOBOX 2.0

As we approach the 2nd anniversary of the mystical MOBOX gaming platform, we embark on a journey through time, reminiscing about the magical achievements and milestones that have materialized within our ever-growing kingdom. This enchanting tale could not have been written without the steadfast dedication of the MOBOX community and our valiant team. With hearts full of gratitude, we reminisce about our past while boldly setting forth our grand vision for the upcoming year.
Two years ago, the MOBOX gaming platform emerged from the shadows and set foot on the Binance Smart Chain. Since then, we have traversed the path from obscurity to fame, now entering a realm of rapid development as we tirelessly enhance our platform and games. Our flourishing MOBOX ecosystem has evolved from humble beginnings to a vast, interconnected matrix teeming with depth and intrigue, boasting a trove of remarkable achievements. Among these treasures are 3.6 million unique wallets, a total value locked (TVL) of up to 440 million US dollars, over 2 million NFTs conjured, and a staggering 400,000,000 BUSD in NFT trading volume.
For the MOBOX team, this moment holds a special magic. Since 2018, we have successfully launched a multitude of influential game products in the Web3 realm. With the inception of the MOBOX platform, we have spent five enchanting years immersed in the Web3 domain. Bolstered by a steadfast team, abundant industry experience, and a relentless, can-do spirit, we have marched valiantly toward our goals. This unwavering commitment has ensured the absence of any major security breaches within our platform. Presently, we eagerly seek to collaborate with exceptional Web3 builders to further manifest the MOBOX vision and mission.
Check out what we achieved in 2022! “MOBOX 2022 Annual Summary” and join us in celebrating our 2nd anniversary as we continue to weave the spellbinding tale of the enchanted MOBOX 2.0 realm.

MOBOX Platform Cross-Chain Deployment

As part of the MOBOX multi-universe plan, the MOBOX platform has officially launched its multi-chain collaborative development strategy in its third year. It is no longer limited to single-chain development on the Binance Smart Chain. To achieve this goal, the MOBOX team is building cross-chain protocols for multiple mainstream public chains, to achieve collaborative operability of NFTs on different public chains, capture and endow more value to MBOX, and enhance MBOX ecosystem compatibility.
This cross-chain collaboration introduces MBOX into the Ethereum ecosystem for the first time, bringing new NFT series to Arbitrum. By integrating with Arbitrum, MOBOX can interact with a large number of Ethereum users and projects. MOBOX users can use their assets and NFTs on Arbitrum and interact with other projects in the Ethereum ecosystem. Similarly, Ethereum projects and users can also use their assets and NFTs on the “MOBOX platform”, “MOBOX games”, and “MOBOX services”.
Through cross-chain functionality and NFT interoperability, MOBOX plans to achieve cross-chain interoperability of all platform products and games. This will allow the use of NFTs from other blockchains on the MOBOX platform and MOMOverse, bringing more choices to users and creating opportunities to attract a more diverse user base and resource channels. It also establishes universal collaborative operability between blockchains and applications.
The first cross-chain gateway of the MOBOX platform will be established on Ethereum and its Layer 2 network, Arbitrum. This not only brings MBOX into the Ethereum ecosystem but also brings new NFT series to Arbitrum. Through cross-chain Arbitrum, MOBOX can interact with a large number of users and projects on Ethereum, achieving more collaborative operability. MOBOX users can use MOBOX assets and NFTs on Arbitrum and interact with projects in the Ethereum ecosystem. Meanwhile, projects and users on Ethereum can also use their assets and NFTs on the MOBOX platform, MOBOX games, and MOBOX services.
Cross-chain to Arbitrum is an important step for MOBOX to expand its ecosystem and realize its vision of creating an interconnected multi-universe. The MOBOX team will continue to collaborate with other mainstream blockchains to develop cross-chain protocols and provide users with broader interoperability and usage choices.
Cross-chain to Arbitrum will bring opportunities and convenience to more users and projects, helping the development of the entire blockchain ecosystem. Through the collaborative operability of MOMO NFT and other public chain NFTs, we will jointly promote the development and innovation of the metaverse.

Enchanting MODragon NFTs: A Magical World Awaits

The MOBOX team is thrilled to unveil the imminent arrival of an enthralling new NFT series, the mesmerizing MODragon, set to grace the Ethereum Layer 2 public chain, Arbitrum. This bewitching NFT collection merges cutting-edge AI image generation sorcery, beckoning players into a realm of diverse gameplay and captivating interactive experiences within the MOBOX ecosystem.
This is the MOBOX art team’s first NFT creation that combines cutting-edge AI image generation technology. AI has great untapped potential in the creative field, and the MOBOX team plans to utilize this technology in production while ensuring compliance and not violating basic ethical standards. Additionally, the team plans to work with players to create content and participate in and promote the AI technology revolution in future community activities.
As the first phase of the MODragon NFT release unfolds, the MOBOX platform will bestow the gift of Genesis Dragon Eggs upon MOBOX players and devoted users of Arbitrum. These mystical eggs will soon hatch, unveiling the alluring MODragon NFTs that lie within. Keep a watchful eye on MOBOX’s social media and community for announcements detailing the enchanting airdrop rules.
The enthralling MODragon NFT series encompasses six elemental realms: fire, water, wood, earth, light, and darkness. MODragons that emerge from the Genesis Dragon Eggs will be blessed with one of these elemental affinities at random. As players venture deeper into this magical world, they may discover unique dual-element dragons and even the elusive four-element dragons in subsequent hatchings. Engaging gameplay, including hatching, battling, fusing, and nurturing multi-element dragons, will be unveiled in due course, showcasing the unparalleled interoperability of NFTs and adding an extra layer of enchantment to the game.

This captivating NFT series promises to become an integral aspect of the MOBOX platform, bestowing endless joy and opportunities upon our cherished community. We warmly invite all MOBOX community members to delve into the wondrous and enigmatic realm of dragons and embark on a magical adventure like no other!
As the project steadily develops, there will be more cross-chain interactive gameplay in the future, including interaction with the BNB chain and MOMO players on the BNB chain.
Stay tuned to MOBOX’s official channels for more spellbinding updates on the MODragon NFTs. Thank you for your unwavering support!

Welcome to the MOBOX World: A Dreamlike World of Infinite Possibilities

With the successful implementation of the MOBOX cross-chain protocol, our team now envisions a captivating MOBOX metaverse world inspired by the mesmerizing MOMOverse. As trailblazers in the WEB 3 domain, we began designing an innovative game four years ago that would revolutionize the blockchain gaming industry. This game empowers players with complete ownership of in-game assets, enabling them to craft and inhabit their very own fantastical multi-dimensional universes.
Our unwavering dedication is to create an immersive and rewarding experience for every player in an open, decentralized environment, encouraging each participant to contribute to community building as a member of a collective working towards a shared vision — an open multi-dimensional universe. As eternal game creators, we’ve identified a disconnect between participants and new social contracts within the existing gaming ecosystem. The MOBOX Universe brings players, designers, engineers, and creators together under a harmonious system of shared responsibilities and incentives.
Throughout the game development process, we’ve recognized the need for a more equitable operating model that breaks down the historical barriers between builders and participants, empowering everyone to create, nurture, enhance, and benefit from the fruits of our collective labor. We also strive to protect these efforts from the influence of intermediaries seeking access to distribution channels.
A fair and thriving community lies at the heart of our game’s future, and every step forward reveals the potential of this enchanting world. We are steadfast in our belief that this is the key to crafting a sustainable game, rich in content and deeply engaging for players.
In this new realm, we’re dedicated to building a truly digital universe that transcends gaming platforms, incorporating a wide array of services, applications, and tools for users to explore, play, and interact. Our grand vision includes allocating a unique continent to each mainstream public chain, home to their native populations. These continents will symbolize their respective public chains, fostering a distinctive digital ecosystem that facilitates communication between users across different public chains.
The MOMOverse, a colossal floating island situated at the center of this world, will feature diverse terrains such as land, floating islands, oceans, and enigmatic creatures. Players can claim a piece of land, build their dream homes, and engage with fellow inhabitants. They’ll have the chance to construct airships, journey to uncharted continents, engage in epic battles with hostile fleets, or trade with merchant fleets voyaging the world.
The MOBOX team is devoted to integrating all products, services, and games on the MOBOX platform into this digital universe. This boundless world teeming with possibilities will allow users to create digital assets, construct homes and cities, develop games and applications, and interact with others. We believe this digital world will not only offer users an entertaining and creative space but also become a genuine social platform that fosters open communication and collaboration between various public chain ecosystems.
Our dream is to cultivate a truly open and equal community in this digital realm, where everyone has the opportunity to participate and create their digital value. Regardless of your public chain affiliation, you’ll discover a sense of belonging and connection here. The MOBOX team will continue to work tirelessly to advance the development and enhancement of this digital world, delivering the ultimate experience and services to our users.

Introducing MOBOX Avatar 2.0

MOBOX Avatars are the magical embodiments of your virtual self within the wondrous realm of the MOMOverse. As unique manifestations of your digital essence, they bridge the gap between our world and the extraordinary MOBOX digital dimension, where your Avatar will captivate and inspire fellow adventurers.
In the mesmerizing metaverse, an Avatar serves as the cornerstone of all enchanting experiences, and our dedicated team cherishes this responsibility. The initial MOBOX Avatar 1.0 incarnation faced a number of challenges, such as lackluster color perception, limited facial features, subpar model accuracy, and insufficient image differentiation. With MOBOX Avatar 2.0, we’ve conjured a realm of dazzling improvements, including more vibrant colors and striking contrasts, intricate facial features and expressions, smoother contours, and a fully-realized three-dimensional model, ensuring each character stands out from the crowd.
Best of all, players possessing a MOBOX Avatar will be gifted a brand new Avatar 2.0 airdrop, enveloping you in the magic of our enhanced creation. The MOBOX Avatar 2.0 project is nearing its final stages of enchantment and is slated to debut alongside the world map version, inviting you to embrace your dazzling new digital identity within the MOMOverse.
Prepare to be spellbound as we eagerly anticipate the arrival of the “new” you in the ethereal world of the MOMOverse.

MBOX Tokenomics 2.0

1. Burn
The MOBOX platform is expected to burn about 135,000,000 MBOX tokens (the portion of the planned total production in the second year that has not been produced), which is equivalent to 60% of the planned total production in the second year.
2. Adjustment

https://preview.redd.it/213cv6h3kopa1.png?width=692&format=png&auto=webp&s=0eae7305356809a82a888350f90d2beb0a29d187

4. Explanation of MOBOX Team and Strategic Investment Shares
In the current market environment, many companies face operational difficulties and pressures. In contrast, the MOBOX team has significant differences from other projects. First, in addition to receiving strategic investments from Binance Labs, the team has a stable source of income, including platform profitability, cooperation, and investment returns. These revenues are sufficient to support the team’s development and expansion plans for at least five years, so there is no need to sell any MBOX tokens to survive. Second, in order to achieve MOBOX’s grand vision, we will continue to attract outstanding talents in the industry and negotiate with top Web3 investment institutions to prepare high-quality resources, sign high-quality AAA-level games, and expand the ecosystem.
We firmly believe that the MOBOX platform has the potential for long-term and sustainable development. With the continuous development of products and market expansion the MOBOX ecosystem will become stronger and more dynamic, creating more value for MBOX holders.

MOBOX Fusion Hub

After completing the integration with multiple mainstream Layer 1 public chains and related Layer 2, MOBOX will launch its final version. We call it the Web 3 Games ultimate solution — MOBOX Fusion hub. Our platform is ready to provide game developers with a series of SDKs and APIs specifically tailored for blockchain games to help them develop and release games based on web 3 technology.
Currently, our Fusion hub platform has launched the first internal test version for game teams and studios related to MOBOX. We expect that games on MOBOX will be upgraded and managed through this platform. The official version of MOBOX Fusion Hub will go live after performance stabilization and large-scale testing.
We believe that blockchain technology and NFTs will play an important role in the future of the gaming industry, and our platform will be one of the pioneers of this trend. Our vision is to become the preferred platform for game developers and contribute to the development of the future gaming industry. At the same time, we will continue to improve and perfect our platform to ensure that we are always at the forefront of the gaming industry. The fusion hub platform will have the following main features:
1. Compatible with Multiple Layer 1 Public Chains
Compared to other GameFi projects, the MOBOX Open Platform can be compatible with multiple Layer 1 public chains, including but not limited to BNB chain and ETH chain. This allows our game developers to choose the underlying public chain that best suits their projects.
2. MOBOX SDK & APIs
The MOBOX game platform provides game developers with a series of easy-to-use development tools to help them quickly build their games and seamlessly integrate them with our platform. Our platform provides the following main functions:
Mature smart contract API: We provide preset smart contract APIs to help game developers quickly write and test game-related smart contracts and use them to process transactions and other game logic.
NFT SDK support and integration: We provide easy-to-use NFT integration SDK to help game developers quickly create their own NFTs and integrate them into the game. Based on blockchain technology, using NFT as the economic currency in the game ensures the fairness and security of the game. In particular, people building NFT dApps will be able to use MOBOX’s built-in NFT market and API services to build a “plug-and-play” market for Web 3 game assets and related NFTs, providing better liquidity.
Risk control: Our platform will use multiple security measures to protect the security of the game and users. We will use multiple security measures including preventing DDoS attacks, cryptographic protection, user identity verification, and asset risk control, to ensure the security and fairness of the game.
Developer funding support: Our platform will provide support funding for game developers through MOBOX METAFund to help them launch and develop their game projects. We believe that supporting developers is the key to realizing our vision.
Developer split NFT: The MOBOX platform not only provides developers with the best revenue distribution model but also provides them with flexible support that is almost instantly credited to their accounts receivable, ensuring that developers have the necessary funds to continue their best development work and help them develop excellent games.
After successfully releasing a game on the MOBOX platform, developers will receive a special non-fungible token (P-NFT indicating) their ownership of the released game. All income generated by the game will be recorded on the blockchain to ensure complete transparency between the platform and developers. The P-NFT smart contract also serves as a revenue sharing agreement between the platform and developers, automatically transferring the income earned by developers according to the agreement to their MOBOX wallet.
Ready-to-use MOMO library: Thanks to the interoperability of MOMO NFTs, they can be used across different public chains and games. Game developers can choose from the high-quality MOMO NFT library and immediately use them in their games, saving a lot of time and money for teams and independent developers, and providing the necessary resources and strong support for their game development work.
MOBOX Community Support: The MOBOX platform provides developers with all possible support, including marketing. Through effective community management, continued platform marketing, and the addition of important ecological partners, the MOBOX platform community provides developers with a powerful marketing channel. This includes fully functional nodes on the MOBOX platform, increasingly active social media, and social media activities through our ecological partners.
By combining the above SDKs and APIs, our platform provides game developers with a better development and publishing experience as well as a wider market and support. Our vision is to become one of the leaders in the future game industry and provide developers with a more fair, transparent, and highly secure game platform.
3. MOBOX Wallet 2.0 — MOBOX Seed Wallet — Securely Sow Your Seeds, Unleash the Power of NFT Gaming!
MOBOX Wallet’s new version will focus on providing a one-stop solution for Web 3.0 game users. Here are the key features of MOBOX Wallet:
NFT Management: MOBOX Wallet is a wallet designed specifically for the gaming market. It helps NFT holders showcase all their unique ERC-721 and ERC-1155 collectibles and game assets in a more efficient and convenient way. MOBOX players can browse and filter all their MOMO NFTs in the new version wallet and quickly list or gift specific MOMO to friends.
EIP 4337 Features: MOBOX Wallet empowers Web 3 Games by combining some new features proposed in EIP 4337. For example, the Social Recovery system allows multiple users to recover the owner’s access to an account, reducing the risk of permanent loss of funds.
Diverse Gas Payment: MOBOX Wallet supports diverse gas payment methods. Game players can use different tokens or even off-chain credit cards for payment, eliminating the need to purchase cryptocurrencies in advance for NFT transactions.
Pre-approval for On-chain Transactions: MOBOX Wallet supports pre-approval for on-chain transactions to increase the smoothness of Dapp and provide a more user-friendly on-chain process.
Bundle Transactions: MOBOX Wallet supports bundle transactions, allowing game players to bundle multiple on-chain operations together. With just one signature, all the necessary transaction processes can be completed, increasing transaction efficiency.
Subscription Mode: MOBOX Wallet supports subscription mode, allowing developers to subscribe to specific events or data updates. When these events or data updates occur, the MOBOX network automatically notifies developers, helping them achieve real-time data synchronization and notification more easily.
Through these features, MOBOX Wallet provides better management and on-chain experience for game developers and NFT holders, and contributes to the development of Web 3 games. We believe that MOBOX Wallet will become one of the essential gateways connecting the traditional gaming market and Web 3.

The launch of the Fusion Hub SDK & API will deliver numerous benefits to the MOBOX platform, including multi-chain integration, cross-chain asset bridging, seamless market API, MOBOX Wallet 2.0, and much more. These features will not only elevate the user experience and security of MOBOX games but also drive the growth of Web 3 gaming.
To realize our vision, we will steadfastly implement these plans. By harnessing cross-chain technology and NFT interoperability, we’ll create a unified multi-universe rather than separate games. Our team will collaborate with other leading blockchains to develop cross-chain protocols that enable MOBOX assets to traverse different blockchains and facilitate the use of NFTs from other blockchains on the MOBOX platform.
Our ultimate goal is to forge a truly interconnected meta-universe — the magnificent MOMOverse. ✨⭐️☄️💥

2023.03.24 10:11 Schnix The Zaaf Situation: Some Background and Updates on the teams troubles

Preface: This post is supposed to be giving both an update and a bit of background on the Zaaf situation. I'm really just compiling stuff here, all the credit goes to the journalists who brought forth information, most notably Charles Marsault and Raúl Banqueri. I can also not claim that this is in anyway exhaustive and as such there might be information missing. I've just been following this situation since I stumbled on the first articles about this team in August 2022. I don't speak Spanish or Catalan and I'm not linked in to the cycling community in those regions so I'm relying on auto translations for my information and it's possible I missed stuff, especially considering there is probably a lot of semi-private discourse within the community beyond news articles and tweets by journalists that I just don't have access too. Additionally and obviously the finances of the parties are private so we can't really feature the key elements here. If you have any additional information I can add it to this post. I also have to say that this is an ongoing situation and none of this is final or necessarily confirmed. Maybe, hopefully, this situation will be resolved within a hours or days of this post.
Origin
The first time the 2023 Zaaf team was properly floated was when future Zaaf DS Manel Lacambra claimed in this August 2022 Radio Catalunya article by Isaak Villalta that he was building a team under a foreign (in this case non-spanish) license with the goal to be a World Tour Team in 2023. I say 'properly floated' because, of course, Peter Van den Veen actually knows more than anyone and had the scoop a day prior getting the very realistic and grounded quote of "Top 5 in 2 years" from Lacambra. The claim here is that they have it all figured out with their sponsors and tha they're a high level organisation and that they are in talks with the UCI about wether they can be in the WWT in 2023. When the article came out I don't think many people paid attention to it, but Mat Mitchell did point out that it is very strange to make claims about possible World Tour Status in 2023 when you not only don't have the points for the sporting criteria but also are actually ineligible for World Tour Status as a team their first UCI level season. He also mentions the Casa Dorada Team in passing. Two months later in October 2022 in this revelo interview by Fran Reyes, Lacambra once again talks about his still unnamed new team. There are still no sponsors or riders named, but Lacambra claims that the team has signed a five-year contract worth 15 million for an annual budget of four million. A yearly budget of four Million would indeed put them financially in the top half of the Women's Wold Tour teams. A quite incredible figure. Although he now concedes that they can't be a World Tour Team because the rules simply don't allow it, he still claims that they will be a team of the highest level and paying their riders World Tour level salaries and providing them with coaches as well as medical, massage and mechanical staff. And of course - the gear is also primer nivel. More updates were supposed to next month. I didn't see any.
B&B collapses - Zaaf rises
The B&B Team was preparing for a big off-season in late 2022. They were to add big sponsors, sign Cavendish and create a new Women's Cycling Team to be headed by reigning French champion Audrey Cordon-Ragot and featuring riders like reigning olympic Champion Anna Kiesenhofer. As we all know, things turned very sideways and although the riders were lead on for a very long time with assurances that the project would still move forward, in December of 2022 it would become official: The B&B project was cancelled and the riders who were recruited for the 2023 season were left to look for a new team at a time where all the teams had already signed their riders for the upcoming season and were done with their squad building. This is when Zaaf Pro Cycling decided to make its move. Despite the lofty claims Lacambra made they seemed to have ample space for new riders (leaving us to wonder how this supposed mega team looked before the B&B riders became available). Only a few days after the collapse of B&B was official Zaaf announced their squad for 2023 featuring many of the stranded riders and Lacambra as their DS. This was the team that he had build up in the media for the past months. As a result of B&B's collapse the names on this first-year UCI-level team were truly outstanding. It did leave users here wondering where the money for this, undoubtedly rather expensive team, was coming from. Zaaf then (and still) doesn't really have any sponsors. As useres epi_counts and mmitchell30 point out in that thread Zaaf is named after cyclist Abdel-Kader Zaaf and founded by a grandson, who through the company La Rankha is also the teams only notable sponsor. Most of the comments in this thread revolve around questioning the finances, hoping they are secured and wondering if this is "Casa Dorada v2". Now although many had probably not heard of this team, Zaaf was not an entirely new team. It existed as a non-UCI level team before, racing, for example, in the 2022 Vuelta Ciclista Andalucia Ruta Del Sol where you might have seen them in their white-and-red kit and wondered 'Hey, that's not Cofidis, who's that?'. Although you might think this bit of history is positive and showcases at least a bit of long-term focus on this project it also comes with its own problems. When the Zaaf Roster was announced Eriz Fraille immediately responded to the announcement that he was worried, that this is the team Lacambra had been promoting, reporting that Zaaf had a questionable reputation and already applied to be a Continental team in a prior season but been rejected by the UCI. Ultimately at this point in time the project hung in a balance. There were immediate question marks and worries but nothing that could be done about them and there was also a lot of hope and excitement for the riders to have found a new team and also simply for a new team that featured strong riders like Cordon-Ragot.
Good Cycling, Bad Cycling
Although there were some worries about the riders not being pictured in any team issued gear for quite a while once the races got underway Zaaf's riders were putting up great results. Although they were a Continental Team they had included the World Tour Calendar as one of the slides in their announcement and they were at the start line at the first races of the season in Australia. Against an admittedly weaker startlist with a majority of the World Tour Teams missing they finished fourth in each of the three stages of the Tour Down Under and finished in 6th on GC. At the Cadel Evans Great Ocean Road Race they snagged a 5th place. They received a lot of invitations and in the first few months of the year they raced a lot. And they performed well. Two thirds at Spanish 1.1 races, 10th in GC at the UAE Tour, third in the Omloop van het Hageland and more Top Tens have made this a very successful start of the season. But while the racing, especially in January and February, was very good, things behind the scene seem to not be going well. There were some more questionable happenings, like when the team with a budget of four million per year lined up at the Vuelta Extremadura TTT on road bikes. But the big news came on March 18th when Charles Marsault reported that riders at Zaaf were not being paid and that despite the claims of a huge budget and that everything was going to be at the highest level, things were indeed not at the highest level but quite cheap over at the Zaaf team. He also mentioned that some of the riders agents were looking for a way to exit the project. In the days following this post there would be updates on twitter from Marsault and Raúl Banqueri (who wrote a big piece on the Casa Dorada collapse). Aside from Banqueri and Marsault there was this tweet by Isaak Vilalta, who wrote the first big article on this new team in 2022 and seems to be reasonably close to the team, claiming that while salaries went unpaid everything is OK at the team and the issue would be solved in a few days. This thread by Banqueri contained a lot of information. In it he reports that he spoke to the members of the 2022 Zaaf Team, who say that despite contracts they were not paid by Zaaf. He also quotes a former rider as saying that "the team didn’t go well at all for any of us" and he reports that there was a court case from some former workers against the Zaaf Team. Banqueri would also post that members of the 2022 Team have told him they were threatened and harassed following the collapse of that years iteration of the team. Banqueri himself was also harassed following his posts about the team.
On March 23rd bigger cycling websites picked up on the story. This cycling weekly article by Vern Pitt confirms that riders and staff have not been paid for the past three months. The article also reports that the riders have been discussing about refusing to start at Gent-Wevelgem in protest. Furthermore it corroborates the reports by Marsault and Banqueri that the UCI and the Spanish federation have been notified and are checking the situation. The article also includes a quote by Iris Slappendel of the The Cyclists Alliance who confirms that they have been "helping Zaaf riders deal with a very difficult situation" for the past few weeks. The Spanish federation confirmed to CyclingNews that they will execute the bank guarantee of Zaaf on March 31, 2024, saying that this will cover three months of salary for the team's rider and staff.
This is still very much a situation in motion. Currently we don't know how this will all end. Aside from waiting on news about the UCI and RFEC's investigation the rumours we heard mean we should definitely keep an eye out on this playing out on the start line of Gent-Wevelgem this weekend. A start does not imply that things are solved and a non-start for Zaaf would not automatically mean the end, but the possibility alone points to the seriousness of this.
On a grander scale the Zaaf situation highlights a continuous problem of stability in cycling. Funding has been historically difficult, but that doesn't excuse promising things you are unable to deliver. A point both Banqueri and Marsault have made is that it might just be an institutional problem. Banqueri has written about being pressured to let questionable behaviour in the Casa Dorada case go unreported while Marsault has decried a lack of interest by (French) media in the Zaaf case. Furthermore the articles from last year let some very dubious claims about the future teams go completely unchallenged. With collapses like B&B and Casa Dorada in the very recent past it feels a bit strange that cycling is still at a point were a team comes virtually out of nowhere with dubious claims and is still immediately accepted. Obviously there's a balance to strike between this risk and allowing new teams and investors to enter and grow cycling, but it feels bad that there's an immediate "uh-oh hope the goes well reaction" from skeptical fans and it does turn into a bad situation. Now obviously that looks bad in hindsight and it's quite possible that everything had gone smoothly and no-one ever mentioned that they were once skeptical about this project, but still there were red flags visible to anyone looking and we have to reckon with the fact that maybe there should be a more rigorous process of checking and securing the viability of the teams from the federations. If a team collapses it puts the riders in a terribly difficult situation. Not only is it obviously a mentally and emotionally difficult situation, but it also derails their entire season and thereby their career to a point.
What happens next we don't know. After all this pessimism I also have to mention that it's entirely possible that this situation somehow gets resolved and Zaaf moves forward and continues putting up good results. If that turns out to be the case then this post may sound too harsh (although I am confident in it's tone considering the stress the riders have already been put in even if the conflict is ultimately resolved). But the fact that we're in this situation is already problematic. mmitchell30 speculated that this might be a situation where the success of the riders built on dodgy financials could end up bringing in money through sponsorship to actually fund the team. That is only speculation of course, but it does feel all too possible and that is not anything that should be encouraged or even possible really. We are now in a difficult situation where we all should hope that the team pulls through for the riders sake, but that I personally cannot hope that this team succeeds. But those two ideas feel sort of at odds with each other.

2023.03.24 06:42 Reika_Fujishima [AETHER][MIDGARDSORMR][FC][LFM] JOIN AZURE INFINITUM! A Growing, Global, Inclusive, Active, Organized, and Friendly Community Awaits You! Welcoming Players Of All Experience, Availability, & Play-Style!

We are Azure Infinitum
Visit us at: (https://www.azureinfinitum.com/)
You may have seen us in the Aether data center's party finder during our weekly events, or may have seen our recruitment shouts around the realm in-game in Midgardsormr, but there just isn't enough space in those places to really explain everything wonderful about what our Free Company and community is.
Azure Infinitum is an LGBTQ+ friendly community, and welcomes players of all experience level, play style, and availability. We're a warm home with a balance of online players, weekly optional activities, and flexible ranks from our membership, to our support & leadership categories. We have a 24/7 Support Team, a Councilship that governs each tier, seasonal events of our own, and many resources between the games we support and online services.
Who We Are
We are an established 9-year old community who's home is in Midgardsormr Server of Final Fantasy XIV. We are a structured, well-rounded, welcoming, friendly, and organized community that hosts daily events (check out our calendar: https://azureinfinitum.com/events/ ) that provide opportunity for members to excel. We work to provide an arena and opportunities to establish strong bonds and camaraderie between our members. As a community we are driven, we carry each other forward, and we are proud.
Our Name & Philosophy
Learn more about our global community here: (https://www.azureinfinitum.com/aboutus/)
Learn more about our FFXIV Free Company here: (https://www.azureinfinitum.com/ourffxivfc/)
Azure Infinitum means "Azure/Blue Infinity or Infinite Blue/Azure" and there is some mythos behind the name that stems from our guild-wide philosophy of kindness, freedom, vigilance, diversity and activity. We promote positive fellowship among members in an organized guild, with our sights open to our unending endless skies, full of possibility and success together.
Our motto is "As Free As The Azure Sky!" which stuck well when our FC was restructured from an old guild in 2014 as Azure was founded, and it was first shouted as we looked out at a clear blue sky above. has continued to be our electric victory as we continue to snowball in success and activity, our members soaring high through the Azure Sky, flying together!
Ranks
Click here to learn more about our community ranks: (https://www.azureinfinitum.com/ranks/)
Our community has an organized ranking structure beginning with Members who comprise the majority of the roster. Scouts are our support team of Members who've stepped up to more officially support the FC, some work on obtaining a future leadership rank. Lieutenants and Officers comprise the proud Azure Council, a diverse group of players of different specialties and services to the FC, making up lower and higher tier leadership, seeing over the Scouts and the FC weekly events, aside from being admins. The FC Infinitum Master oversees all and leads the Azure Council and the company forward while always keeping the heart and vision of the community alive and in sight. Currently we are re-assessing ranks in the free company, giving more support permissions and duties to our Scouts, while the current council operates as a small team of Lieutenants lead by the FC Master.
Everyone Welcome and Who Fits Best
We have an open door policy. Whether you're casual, a returning player, a veteran, or a newbie, we have a vast array of players in our member roster. Our weekly schedule is organized and provides an array of activity for players of most levels, however we like to ask players who're pretty new or under the level cap, to be extra vocal about their needs while they're still unable to attend some daily events or higher level content that most of our weekly lineup focuses on. We want everyone to have as much fun as possible and have the most success. We find that most players enjoy Azure Infinitum, many have stated that they subscribed to FFXIV much longer than they ever would have imagined after they have been around in our community, as they've gotten involved and experienced all that we offer.
Our FC keeps a daily schedule (see here: https://www.azureinfinitum.com/events/) of events that are hosted by permitted Scouts and Council ranks, these range from 8-man and 24-man raids and map parties, to WT journal groups and trial clear parties or farms, and more- and attending anything isn't mandatory at all here. We're happy to have you, and its up to our members how much they'd like to get involved. Attendance is optional! There's never any stress to attend FC functions.
Savage Raiding Statement
We find that some hardcore raiders looking for free companies just to join their statics who don't already have one, might not fit well if savage raiding is their only or greatest focus, because traditionally Azure does not have a Savage Static, but focuses more on allowing members to organize their own groups and also provides resources to do so. Despite not supporting an official static for the FC, we hope that hardcore raiders enjoy the wealth of our community's wealth of harmony and overall fun, and that everyone may take initiative to seek out or build a raiding static within our community if they are interested, as opposed to missing out on experiencing Azure. Depending on the content season, we may have an Unofficial static lead by a leader, and routinely offer limited time Savage-learning events that may run for a number of months.
Rules and No Drama Policy
Please take a moment to look over our Rules Page at (https://www.azureinfinitum.com/rules/), we find that rude individuals and people who create drama are the outsiders here that don't fit well. We know its a big page, so at least visit the General Rules section before joining.
Recruitment Care & Activity
People of Azure Infinitum are often if not always good natured players who found their way to our community looking for a place with structure, friendliness, organization, and great activity, or they've been scouted during recruitment drives and have been well screened. Its a place where one can be social and attend everything, or relax in the background and enjoy the services and facilities of being in an active, organized, and friendly FC. We actively recruit periodically to assist with upkeep of community activity levels, and to meet new comrades. A community that closes recruitment can be doomed to stagnation. Its normal for a community to have an inner core of die hards who log in daily regardless of content releases, and also have an outer core of individuals that range from those with less availability to those who check in during Patches. This is why we take extra care in keeping the fresh blood flowing into Azure, cautious recruitment, and support our active model by always staying welcoming and sometimes running recruitment campaigns and other services.

Handling Online Drama
Because we keep a no-drama policy and have a strong communication network, it is leadership's ultimate priority to handle any issues that may come up as soon as possible, and most people appreciate our problem solving which has inspired many other communities. Between our Support & Leadership ranks, we use a number of report and resource channels to handle situations, and perform problem solving protocols & tactics to fairly address issues as possible. Drama is inevitable at some point for any online community, so its important to have a large and strong list of moderators (currently around 60!) and a council of leaders (15+) to quickly handle any problems. Luckily, we don't have a lot of drama, but we're always very well equipped and very prepared. Our community has been commended by game staff in the past for our methods, and we have worked with the FFXIV Special Task Force to ensure as much safety to our community as achievable. It should be stressed that it is up to our membership to report to GM's in-game, and to Azure Leadership should any issues or concerns come up. Its also highly recommended that our members appropriately document evidence that can be used to help us assess situations and make proper decisions. Documenation such as screenshots of harassment is a great example! Our members online safety is greatly important to us and is a number one concern of our leadership team. Our Rules Page at: (https://www.azureinfinitum.com/rules/) describes a bit more in Chapter 3, including other entries on avoiding/ignoring trolls, playing while intoxicated, depression, and more.
Our Philosophy
We believe in our community and its people, how far we can go, how much we can do for each other, being an experienced community who's core values are positive fellowship, formation of bonds, and indomitable unity.
Azure Infinitum tightly grasps success and masters a casual and lucrative weekly play schedule while inspiring motivation and providing avenues for further success, friendships, and camaraderie among all who freely fly together among our Azure skies.
Founding on the principles of intricately forging a generally drama-free experience with keen leadership and a zealous and mighty membership, Azure has striven to guide and support many hundreds of players through every era of Final Fantasy XIV.
With an illustrious history, company lore, impressive statistics, and a model that is adaptable and blessed with innovative ability, Azure Infinitum claims a dominant presence of excellence and player growth that is possible in our community and extended services.
Estate Organization
We have the entire set-up at our estate, from gardens for members and Krakka Root production (free for members' chocobos), to our stables, nicely uniform clean lawn with hangout spots that are popular, with crafting stations, all available NPCs for simple mats and repairs, cut-scene viewer, toybox, triple-triad board, a fully operational and geared fleet of airships and subs, and our Azure Infinitum Assembly Chamber on the top floor for our meetings where announcements are made at our Grand Assemblies. Check it out if you like at Mist Ward 7 Plot 1.
We also have an organized form of gathering for weekly events in the yard, places to relax, food that is always available on tables at our Cellar, and hold a lot of special events and social games at our Hall. We're also conveniently located next to a Market Board and a Retainer Bell outside of our estate.
Communication and Extended Azure Services
We have multiple services of which none are mandatory, but we provide being (azureinfinitum.com) where our Forums, Event Calendar, News, Company Meeting Summaries, Seasonal Merch Giveaways, Contests, Rules Page, and more take place and can be found. We also have a popular and active Discord Server.
We also have a Facebook Group, Twitter, Tumblr, Instagram, Steam Group, (Look us up! Or visit: (https://www.azureinfinitum.com/socialmedia/) and Linkshells like our Infinitum Alliance LS for contact and aid from our allies if needed, our Azure Hunters LS for Hunters, and our Azure Industry LS which connects our members to our inner crafting/gathering community for newbies to pros.
Also worthy of mention is our big Company Meetings in-game, known as Azure Infinitum Grand Assemblies. Even though we have several avenues that keep people connected, our live assemblies gather the FC in unity where announcements are made first, and all proposals, ideas, and more, can be decided together live with the Azure Council present.
This network ensures a lot of information and communication gets around and has been exceedingly useful to us.
More On Events
One part of our reputation that often precedes us is our event crafting and hosting.
First, let me make sure its clear that attendance is never mandatory, but those who can make use, when possible, of what we provide each day, benefit from our events each week.
Since our beginning, traditions like our Thursday Treasure Thursdays events have run each week. Our weekly line-up presently begins on Tuesdays post-weekly reset, and consists of Raid Tuesdays, Wondrous Wednesdays (WT Journal Parties, often doubles as Trial Clears and Pony Drops), Treasure Thursdays (Endwalker's timeworn maps with groups of 8 doing up to 3 rounds of maps allowing for up to 24 maps ran), 24-Man Tuesdays (full pre-formed Azure 24-member alliances are made and raids are cleared, will be returning upon the release of EW's 24-man), Super Azure Slayer Sunday (our weekly meetup to do all sorts of PVP content be it Rival Wings or Frontline), and Monstrous Mondays (helps clear the current and previous patch extreme trials).
Special, Seasonal, and Quarterly Events
More info here: (https://www.azureinfinitum.com/azureday/)See the latest event news & more at: (https://www.azureinfinitum.com/news/)
We also have what we call Special and Quarterly Events. These types of events are Weekend-Long-Events that usually consist of a theme or celebratory social events we craft. During these events we hold big Riddle Races, Costume/Glamour shows and contests, 3-Story Mansion Maze Races, Speedrun Dungeon Races, Hide and Seek games, Custom Quest Events, Discord events like Cards Against Humanity nights, Comedy events, PVP Tournament Circuits, and more.
Our Special and Quarterly events are Azure Day Weekend (Takes place 3 times a year across a weekend, celebrates the FC), Azure Summer Festival (3-days at the end of August in partnership with Child's Play, raises money for children in long-term care, anniversary of historic FC event called the Lunar Rebellion), Anniversary Azure Day (a big weekend event in November that celebrates our Founding), Azure Day Saint's Wake (celebrates Halloween/All Saint's Wake), Azure Starlight Day (celebrating Starlight Day/Christmas/December Holiday Season), Azure Grand Melee and Duel Tournaments (PVP Circuit series crowning our PVP Champions) and more.
Azure Day Weekends
If you've been around our server you may have heard of our Azure Day Weekends. Our Azure Days take place quarterly as mentioned just above, with four evolved editions called Azure Summer Festival, Azure Day Saint's Wake, Azure Starlight Day, and Anniversary Azure Day. With Azure Day Weekends and related events traditionally occuring quarterly our members are always excited to see the next big weekend of crazy and fun social games, and our showering of the free company in gil and prizes galore. We go all out when we celebrate the free company, and Azure Days are another way we find for leadership to give back to the community. 2023 and beyond is now host to additional seasonal Azure Day events!
We're always giving our members a chance to have fun, win big, and make some great memories in the in-game family we've become. Something fun is always on the horizon in Azure.
Community
I almost can't stress enough how friendly our community is. We have a vast variety of members from hardcore gatherers and crafters, social butterflies, chill veterans, experienced raiders, level grinders, support teams, PVP aficionados, mechanic specialists, and mentors. We're also very friendly to all casual players as well and we keep an open door so long as recruits are always aware that we have a no-drama tolerance here.
​Evolution into a Gaming Clan & Network
Plans are in the works and foundations are being laid that is slowly turning our community into a larger gaming network, with our first established Azure Wing with regular occurring activity being founded in Monster Hunter World, this has led to a successful Destiny 2 clan and more. Becoming a member of our Discord and/or Free Company now means access to things like our huge discord, Azure Wing membership in other games, and being able to join in on any of our other activities in the general community. Azure Network as its being called at the moment, is growing with an all-new website and community features for playing together across Final Fantasy XIV and to Azure Skies beyond!
Activity
We rank high as one of the top FC's in Worldwide Activity on lodestone, and have for a long time. Most of our players are divided between the US East and West Coasts, members in East and West Canada, and a few outside the US or in EU or Aus zones. Because we do have an activity policy (mentioned below) we keep a standard flow of people, and have crowds in the early morning, late morning, early afternoon, afternoon, evening, and late night crowds.
Elitism isn't our style. Our community boasts a broad range of characters, great personalities, the proud, and also some silly goofs. But elitism isn't welcome, no matter how successful we are or how large we grow. We're always welcoming towards fresh faces interested in joining our guild, and the in-game activity ranges between 30-60+ online at once during prime time hours, sometimes around 70+ on patch days, and usually always with half the roster logging in throughout a 24 hour period, and around 15-30+ during the night.
Activity Policy
We ask that our members do not go missing without logging in for more than 60 days straight. If we hear word from someone or have some kind of decent excuse, we place our members on our On Vacation rank, which lasts presently until 90 days have passed. Exceptions are made for military deployments, hospital stays, financial issues, disability/health related issues, moving, or other reasons that might fall on a case-by-case basis.
All members not heard from in 60 days (roughly 2 months) or currently 90 days (roughly 3 months) are discharged. We allow 3 joins to Azure Infinitum in total, but exceptions can be made due to reasons listed above. If removed for inactivity, or you've left our FC for another reason and haven't already joined 3 times, you're always welcome back, but please remember, we are not a revolving door.
Keeping our roster full of members who have been online and presently play the game actively ensures an active environment for our players who play often. It also keeps our credits and clerical processes balanced across our network, and allows space for new faces to join our big happy in-game family of comrades.

2023.03.24 03:22 Inner_Negotiation383 the year that really changed my life: 2022

So, 2022 was probably a great year for everyone. But it wasn't for me. It was life changing.
January 16, 2022 our family dog that we've had since I was in middle school (I was 26 at the time) had to be put down bc he couldn't make it any longer. And at that time my grandma was in the hospital with health issues so my dad was up in ohio; which left my mom to go by herself to have him put down. I video chatted him first, but I don't think I ever did, or ever will truly forgive myself for being in ohio, and at work when it happened.
March 8, 2022. My moms stepdad (pretty much her dad) passed away around 1:30am. Now I wasn't that close to him but still it hurt. And whether or not people think im crazy, I believe he came to say goodbye to me. I was up until about 1:30-2:00am and up at 5:30am when I got the text from my mom telling me. And that one still hasn't really hit me; but also I don't really allow myself to grieve. I absolutely hate showing any emotion, I feel like for me at least it's a sign of weakness.
Well around that same time my dad's dad had to have surgery on his leg, a week after being home from that he was sent back to the hospital and they released him 3 days later. He claims they said he had pneumonia but they gave him no meds for that. And two weeks later he was back in the hospital which brings us to the worst day I've ever experienced.
April 25, 2022. My grandpa, passed away. Turns out he had stage 4 lung cancer and the hospital missed it. That was the darkest day of my life. He passed around 6am.
Now I owe everything to my dad's dad. He practically raised me for the first like 5 or 10 years of my life. I was his side kick when he was younger. And around December 2021 I moved in with him (I know being grown living with your grandparents isn't something to brag about) and I was talking to one of my coworkers who really was my rock during that time about it, and he said that I was meant to move in there.
Well the end of April till maybe August was a really dark time in my life. Bc my grandpa's death really tore the family apart. My "uncle" (I say it with quotations bc he's nothing to me anymore) really came after me. He hated my job, wanted me to find one making less money and bc I didn't drive at the time suggested I walk across town (they live in a bad town) no matter the time I got off. I was still living with my grandma and didn't talk to her for a month bc everytime my uncle called her and I ended up fighting. And it was so bad that my uncle was going to fly from Virginia (where he lives) to Florida (where my parents and i currently live) and was going to fight my dad over me being in this house. So I moved out about mid August leaving my grandma alone in the house and making things harder on my aunt (my grandma isn't in the best of health and doesn't need to be by herself). But it was like everything was my fault, the utility bill high, my fault, something broke in the house, it was my fault, anything and everything was my fault to him. So I left, I didn't have a choice. If I would've stayed living here my uncle would've thrown me out on the street with my dog. Things only got better with me and my grandma when I blocked my uncle on everything I knew I had him on, Facebook, snapchat, his phone number. I didn't block him on xbox bc I don't remember his name on there. Everyone even fought over my grandpa's truck the day after the funeral. My dad claims him and my grandpa talked about it going to my sister, and my uncle claims they talked about him buying it. But now my dad says if he really wanted to he could've gotten the cops involved bc my moms name was also on the title to the truck, and when my dad sold it she never signed. He says my grandpa did that on purpose so if anything happened it'd go back to my parents.
I left behind all my friends, most of my family, had to quit my job that I absolutely loved. But I guess it worked out for me, bc I ended up finally getting my license, I just bought my first car, and I got a way better job down there. But I don't find joy in anything anymore. Everyone was excited and proud of me for buying a car, but me? I didn't feel anything. I work at school now and while it's nice and probably the best job I've ever held I wasn't proud of getting it. I felt like I had too.
My dad says his brother is the cause of me getting my license and I should credit him, but I don't. My grandpa had he still been around to see probably would've been the only person in my family to believe I wouldve gotten it. My dad told me I wouldn't the day of my test, and my grandma STILL tells me she never thought I would've gotten it. And the only thing keeping me going is the fact that my grandpa would be proud of where I'm at in life.
I honestly felt for a while like ending it all would stop this from happening, but it wouldn't. And I know it wouldn't, it would just remove me from the equation.
My uncle is still a piece of shit though. He still calls my grandma and tells her what she is and isn't allowed to do in her house. He just doesn't have anyone to blame anything on now.
Will I ever fully forgive my uncle for the way he acted? I doubt it. I want nothing to do with him anymore. It was so bad that i told my coworker (the one mentioned above) that the day my uncle passes i will drive to Virginia just to piss on his grave. I finally told my grandma about everything he said and done while I was here and she even said she was done with him. That wasn't my intention, though. I guess I'm just on a healing journey and need to get stuff off my chest.
I'm sorry this is so all over the place. 2022 sucked for me. And we're half way through 2023 and I just hope it gets better, I need it to. I have to continue moving forward in life to make my grandpa happy. It's what he wouldve wanted.
