Karbon-X and Banff Half Marathon Celebrate 2025 with Verified Climate Contributions that Reflect the Spirit of the Rockies
For the third consecutive year, Karbon-X (OTCMKTS:KARX) and the Banff Half Marathon have partnered to take meaningful, measurable climate action that reflects the natural values of the Rockies. This year’s race included verified climate contributions covering the event’s footprint, along with voluntary contributions made by runners at registration. By choosing an optional add-on at checkout, participants were able to make a personal impact, integrating climate action directly into their race experience. The story behind this effort is as local as it is global. Banff has long lived in rhythm with nature, from the early hydro stations that powered mountain towns to campfires that bring people together after a day outdoors. The climate contributions made through this partnership echo that legacy, supporting clean energy and sustainable heat in communities worldwide, just as Banff has done for generations. “Partnering with Karbon-X has given us a meaningful way to align our race with the values of the community” said Paul Regensburg, Race Director of the Banff Half Marathon. “Our runners care about protecting the places they love, and this partnership helps turn that care into action.” “The Karbon-X collaboration with the Banff Half Marathon is built on a shared commitment to protecting the pristine environment that makes this race a world-class destination,” said Matt Kauffman, EVP of Sports & Entertainment at Karbon-X. “We’re proud to provide runners with a simple, effective way to balance their environmental impact. At its core, this partnership is about taking collective responsibility for our footprint, safeguarding the beauty of Banff, and advancing a shared vision for a sustainable future, helping competitors run for a purpose that is larger than the race itself.” Through 2027, Karbon-X continues its role as the Banff Half Marathon’s Sustainability Partner, working together to minimize impact and inspire collective action among participants and the broader community.

$85M in Frozen Deposits: amBaaSsador Launches to Prevent the Next BaaS Meltdown
As U.S. banks face mounting pressure to modernise through fintech partnerships while managing the fallout of high-profile industry collapses, a new strategy firm has launched to help institutions design safer, more compliant Banking-as-a-Service (BaaS) programs. amBaaSsador Strategic Advisory , headquartered in Jefferson City, Missouri, formally opened operations this week with a focused mission: to equip banks with the governance frameworks, technical oversight, and operational structure required to engage in BaaS partnerships responsibly. The launch comes at a time of heightened scrutiny in the embedded finance sector following major disruptions, including the 2024 collapse of Synapse Financial Technologies, which affected over 350,000 customer accounts and more than 100 fintech partners. According to industry estimates, over $85 million in customer funds were frozen or delayed during the Synapse collapse, and multiple banks involved were forced to re-examine the technical and contractual foundations of their BaaS relationships. A 2025 S&P Global study found that 61% of U.S. banks offering BaaS lacked end-to-end monitoring of their fintech integrations , and 43% had no documented fallback process in case of vendor failure . “This isn’t just a compliance issue—it’s a structural one,” said Steve Bishop , President of amBaaSsador and a 25-year veteran of financial operations and risk strategy. “BaaS has grown too fast for its own infrastructure. Banks need partners who can help them see what’s under the hood—before it breaks down.” amBaaSsador enters the market as the first U.S. consultancy dedicated entirely to regulated financial institutions navigating BaaS models. Unlike vendor-focused service providers or traditional legal firms, amBaaSsador operates as a governance and oversight partner, helping banks assess risk exposure, strengthen controls, and embed resilience into their fintech relationships. The firm’s services are designed for sponsor banks, community banks, and regional institutions working with middleware providers, white-labeled fintechs, or embedded finance products. Offerings include: Infrastructure and observability audits across core banking APIs, middleware platforms, and partner systems; Third-party contract reviews , focusing on SLAs, data rights, monitoring access, and vendor accountability; Executive training , translating BaaS risk into governance-level insights and decision-making frameworks. To provide clients with integration-aware guidance, amBaaSsador has formal collaborations with: Treasury Prime , a core banking infrastructure provider offering API-driven compliance tooling; Unit , a leading platform providing banks with data access, partner-level control, and embedded risk indicators; The American Fintech Council , a trade body representing responsible fintech practices and regulatory advocacy. These partnerships give amBaaSsador visibility into evolving technical standards and policy trends, helping banks align operational practices with broader industry movements. “Our clients don’t just want recommendations—they want practical frameworks that actually reflect how these systems operate,” Bishop said. “By working with Treasury Prime, Unit, and the AFC, we can connect technical architecture with institutional governance.” Addressing a Governance Vacuum amBaaSsador’s launch reflects a shift in tone across the U.S. financial landscape, where fintech partnerships are now viewed not just as innovation drivers, but as risk carriers. The firm has already begun engagements with mid-sized and community banks seeking to re-evaluate existing partnerships or restart paused BaaS programs with greater oversight. “We’ve seen banks with tens of thousands of active end users but no visibility into what their fintech partners are doing day to day,” Bishop added. “That kind of exposure is no longer sustainable—banks are liable, and they need to be in the driver’s seat.” In Q1 2025 alone, over 20% of U.S. banks offering BaaS paused onboarding of new fintech clients , according to an ABA member survey, citing increased regulatory scrutiny, insufficient internal expertise, and contractual complexity as top reasons. amBaaSsador’s role is to help institutions get back on track—not through vendor referrals, but through structural clarity. The global embedded finance market is projected to reach $230 billion by 2030 , yet the foundations are shifting. Industry observers believe that successful institutions will not be those with the most partnerships, but those with the strongest frameworks for oversight. “This is the next phase of fintech: not just fast, but governable,” said Stacy Bishop , founder of Selling Fintech and strategic partner to amBaaSsador. “Fintechs that want to scale need to prove to their bank partners—and their bank partners’ boards—that they are transparent, auditable, and operationally sound. amBaaSsador is stepping in to make that relationship viable again.” Stacy, who supports fintechs with compliance-aligned go-to-market strategies, notes that sales cycles have doubled since 2023 for fintechs seeking bank sponsorship. “The institutions that want to keep growing in this space are now demanding more from their partners. And they’re finally asking the right questions.” What Comes Next amBaaSsador plans to publish a semi-annual BaaS Governance Index beginning later this year, benchmarking how financial institutions manage fintech relationships in terms of technical access, risk ownership, and institutional readiness. The firm’s mission is to ensure that embedded finance—while complex—remains a viable and valuable business model for banks committed to structure, accountability, and strategic discipline. “We’re not here to slow innovation,” Steve Bishop concluded. “We’re here to make sure it’s built on something solid.”

Global FX Market Evolution: 2025 Regulatory and Technological Shifts Reshape Trading Practices
Financial authorities and technology innovators are driving structural changes in foreign exchange markets, according to a new industry analysis by researchers at top30forexbrokers.com. The report examines how updated compliance frameworks and advanced trading infrastructure are redefining operational standards across institutional and retail trading segments. Regulatory Coordination Strengthens Market Integrity Seventy-eight jurisdictions have implemented enhanced oversight measures for currency trading platforms in 2025, aligning with the Financial Stability Board’s global investor protection standards. The Malaysian Securities Commission now mandates real-time transaction reporting for leveraged forex products, while South Africa’s Financial Sector Conduct Authority (FSCA) issued 14 public warnings against unauthorized platforms in Q1 2025. "Global convergence on capital adequacy and client fund segregation is reshaping market access," stated FSCA Commissioner Unathi Kamlana during a recent policy briefing. These measures aim to reduce systemic risk while maintaining liquidity across major currency pairs like EUR/USD. Technology Adoption Accelerates Operational Efficiency AI-driven risk management systems are now standard among 89% of EU-regulated platforms, reducing trade execution latency by 42 milliseconds since 2023. Blockchain settlement solutions have cut average trade settlement times from T+2 to T+15 minutes for 67% of Tier 1 liquidity providers, according to Deloitte’s Q1 2025 market analysis. The European Central Bank’s digital euro pilot has accelerated institutional adoption of programmable smart contracts, with 58% of corporate hedging transactions now utilizing automated FX workflows. Retail Participation Prioritizes Regulatory Education New competency certification requirements in 63% of G20 nations have shifted retail trading dynamics. Platforms combining simulation tools with regulatory education modules report 57% higher client retention rates compared to execution-only providers, per International Organization of Securities Commissions (IOSCO) data. IOSCO’s updated social trading guidelines now mandate explicit risk disclosures for copy-trading features, addressing concerns raised in the FTC’s 2024 ruling on financial services marketing. Cybersecurity Infrastructure Becomes Critical Priority A joint SWIFT-BIS report credits enhanced authentication protocols with preventing $2.3 billion in attempted FX market cyber fraud during 2024. UK FCA-regulated venues now require quantum-resistant encryption standards, implemented by 92% of platforms as of March 2025.

Market analysts project continued growth, with some forecasts estimating gold could reach $4,000 per ounce by mid-2026.

This is a strategic way to diversify traditional IRAs with physical precious metals, helping clients protect their retirement savings from inflation and market volatility. The company’s platform supports a wide range of customer needs, from those just beginning to explore precious metal investing to seasoned investors looking to rebalance their portfolios. Specializing in gold, the company also provides access to silver, platinum, and palladium products, ensuring clients have a variety of options to meet their investment goals. For Global Gold Investments, the current environment underscores the importance of creating a financial safe harbor in choppy economic waters. The firm reviews investment portfolios at no cost to potential customers and helps clients roll over their existing IRAs without delays. It also lets clients buy coins and bars directly, tracking the market closely to offer competitive pricing. “With gold and silver gaining momentum, people are acting now to secure their financial future,” the company spokesperson added. “This expansion ensures we can help more investors make informed decisions about wealth preservation.” Interested parties can learn more here: https://iragoldproof.com/

AI-Powered Algorithmic Trading Solution To Pass Prop Firm Challenges Announced
The system, which they call the “Hivemind Trading AI”, was created by experienced algorithmic traders who were frustrated by the increasing difficulty of prop firm tests. This new algorithmic solution has demonstrated a substantially higher success rate than manual trading, and the team is now providing access to select applicants. For more information, visit https://www.propfarming.com/fund Prop firm challenges can be a difficult hurdle to overcome, especially for traders just starting out in the industry, due to the stringent requirements they often present. Traditionally, passing prop firm challenges has required a high level of emotional restraint and professional consistency, a factor which Blue Edge Financial hopes can be diminished through the implementation of smart technology. Their AI-powered system circumvents these barriers by automating the vast majority of the trading process. The trading bot, Blue Edge explains, has access to all relevant charts and data, and can execute trades 24/7 to capitalize on key opportunities, regardless of whether or not the trader is actively monitoring the system. A spokesperson explains the inner workings of the algorithmic system further, “You can trade with proven strategies that have been back-tested over historical data, and these robots and AI are like a supercomputer that can analyze millions more data points than the human brain ever could.” The system is beginner-friendly and is intended to provide an on-ramp into the industry without newcomers needing to risk substantial assets of their own. While only 5% of prop firm applicants are typically admitted, algorithmic trading may be able to fast-track new traders and help them secure funding to quickly scale their careers. In one case study shared by Blue Edge Financial, a single mother and former dance instructor with no prior trading experience was able to pass a prop firm test within 90 days of entering the industry using the Hivemind Trading AI system. She secured 6 figures in funding and was able to leave her previous career behind. About Blue Edge Financial The company is the brainchild of Adam Winig, an algorithmic trader with 7 years of industry experience. His latest creation, the Hivemind Trading AI, has already been used by over 1000 traders at all stages of their careers to secure hundreds of funded accounts.

Volume Profile Trading & Attraction Level Indicator: Day Trading Guide Released
The new guide, which is available to read at Medium.com, discusses how using visual market activity tools and depth indicators can improve trading accuracy. The article suggests price and volume data can act as a form of trading compass that uses price activity rather than time-based indicators to direct decisions. More details can be found at https://medium.com/@simon_57298/unlock-market-mastery-how-volume-profile-and-s-a-l-transform-trading-precision-d3fd250e7d7c The methods outlined in the guide form the bedrock of VPS Trading School's trading philosophy. Founder Simon's volume profile-based method has been tested and honed over 20 years in live markets. This research has shaped his proprietary VPS indicators which aim to help traders make faster and smarter decisions. Volume profile, the guide explains, has three key elements: Point of Control (POC) indicates the price level with the highest traded volume; Value Area denotes the range in which around 70% of the trading volume occurs while high and low-volume nodes highlight potential price pivots and breakout points based on areas of unusually high or low trading interest. The piece states, “By understanding these components, traders can identify where the market may pause, reverse, or breakthrough.” These volume profiling methods can be complemented with the VPS S.A.L indicator which identifies liquidity zones where significant buyer and seller interest are occurring and acting as a magnet for price action. It provides dynamic updates - tracking liquidity zones in real-time- and offers market confirmation by validating anticipated moves. The guide explains how using volume profile and S.A.L. in tandem offers traders a way to anticipate and confirm market moves. By cross-checking and spotting alignment between S.A.L zones and volume profile nodes, users can strengthen their strategic trading setups. VPS suggests, “Refine entry points by using S.A.L levels to confirm entries identified by Volume Profile. Set Stop-Loss orders just beyond S.A.L levels and target high-volume zones for profit.” Traders using this combination have reported notable improvements in accuracy and confidence thanks to a clear and repeatable system. The article says, “Volume Profile and S.A.L. are game-changers for traders looking to move beyond guesswork. Together, they provide a structured, dual-layered approach to market analysis that enhances precision and confidence.” For more information, go to https://volumeprofilesecrets.com/

Common Cents Media Publishes 2025 Gold & Copper Stock Report On PNG Projects
As they explore new options for those looking to diversify their investment portfolios in 2025, Common Cents Media has honed in on Papua New Guinea as an overlooked market. The group has identified a growing interest in the region by heavyweights in the gold exploration industry. More information is available at https://www.stockspeak.com/news/png-gold-stock-picks-for-2025- Common Cents Media are specifically watching correlations in key factors in and around the Kainantu Gold District, an area in PNG known for mineral-rich deposits. Area gold and copper companies, particularly South Pacific Metals (TSX.V: SPMC, OTC: SPMEF, FSE: 6J00), have recently made significant exploration progress. The new report points out that companies like South Pacific Metals and K92 Mining are prepping drill-ready land packages in the Kainantu Gold District with the intent to pursue high-priority gold and copper targets in the region in 2025. South Pacific's Osena and Anga Gold Copper Projects both share a key mineralized corridor with K92, The report also discusses the potential gold market upswing that may be on the horizon following a highly promising 2024. Analysts suggest that gold could reach $3000/oz in the coming year - a price that would have significant implications for companies and investors in the mining sector.

Intellectual Property Securities Corporation (IPSE) Unveils First-of-Its-Kind IP Securities, Opening New Funding Pathways for Creators
IPSE Unveils New Asset Class: Directly-Traded Intellectual Property Securities Intellectual Property Securities Corporation (IPSE), led by esteemed financier and IP specialist Marc Deschenaux, has announced the launch of Intellectual Property Securities—an innovative asset class enabling creators and inventors to directly trade their IP on traditional financial markets. IPSE’s novel model bypasses traditional corporate intermediaries, listing intellectual property assets themselves on established exchanges. This groundbreaking step creates an entirely new pathway for IP owners seeking to monetize creative assets without relinquishing ownership. With IPSE’s structure, creators can now secure funding through Intellectual Property Rights Offerings (IPRO), which allow IP—from patents and media to software and music—to be directly offered and traded on public markets, transforming the role of intellectual property in modern financing. Initial Intellectual Property Rights Offering (IIPRO): A Revolutionary Model for IP Financing Central to IPSE’s model is the IIPRO, a securities offering designed to make IP assets independently marketable. Traditionally, securities tied to intellectual property required corporate backing or collateralization within larger entities and were simple loan guarantees. IPSE’s IIPRO structure departs from this model by treating the intellectual property itself as the primary financial entity and asset, enabling independent capital flow to individual creators, inventors, and investors. IPSE’s IIPRO structure creates new liquidity avenues and positions intellectual property as a robust, standalone investment opportunity. Marc Deschenaux, IPSE’s founder, explains, “Our IIPRO model redefines intellectual property as a viable, tradeable asset on par with traditional securities and with tax benefits traditional securities do not have. This gives creators, inventors, and their investors the flexibility to raise capital with greater autonomy and security and investors tax credits for investing directly into science.” Marc Deschenaux: Innovator at the Intersection of IP and Finance Marc Deschenaux’s career, spanning decades of high finance, law, technology, and intellectual property, has been instrumental in bringing this innovative model to market. With nearly 200 IPOs and more than 240 private offerings to his credit, Mr. Deschenaux has long advocated for financial models that empower creatives and technology pioneers. His vision for IPSE reflects this commitment to a financial system where intellectual property can stand as a tradeable asset class. “IPSE’s IP securities open new, viable channels for intellectual property owners to access funding without yielding control or depending on traditional corporate frameworks. This approach will be a game-changer for creators globally,” Deschenaux commented. Redefining Investor Access and Creator Capitalization IPSE’s IP securities represent a promising alternative to conventional IP monetization methods, such as venture capital and private equity. By trading IP assets independently, IPSE allows investors to support intellectual property directly, promoting IP development in sectors ranging from entertainment to tech. This model not only enhances investor options but also strengthens the IP owner’s role in controlling the future of their creations. With compliance and security at the forefront, IPSE’s approach aligns with global standards, fostering trust and stability for investors and IP owners. This model poises intellectual property to gain visibility and legitimacy as a core asset within international markets. About Intellectual Property Securities Corporation Intellectual Property Securities Corporation (IPSE) enables intellectual property owners to access capital through IP securities. Based in New York, Miami, and Los Angeles, IPSE provides end-to-end solutions for financing and managing IP assets. Under the leadership of Marc Deschenaux, IPSE pioneers accessible capital solutions for IP owners worldwide, helping to reshape the future of intellectual property finance.

Utah Craig Judd Smart Financial: Retirement Income & Tax Planning Updated
In his recent statement, Craig Judd explains how he and his company Smart Financial offer future retirees a different approach to financial planning. By focusing on reducing fees as well as building a strong portfolio, they allow their clients to hold onto more of their funds and grow a larger pot for their later years. More details can be found at https://craigjudd.com Craig Judd and the Smart Financial team believe, despite marketing claims that state otherwise, no financial planners can guarantee returns over the average market return of 10% per year which equates to 7% when adjusted for inflation. “Even that isn’t a guarantee—it’s just a reliable expectation if the last century is any indication,” Judd explains. “If someone does guarantee anything above that, they’re guessing at best or fraudulent at worst.” In addition to offering some of the lowest fees in the industry, Smart Financial's approach also entails generating more funds from sources like social security. The company says that it typically helps clients earn an extra $200 per month from social security benefits. Rather than leaving clients to work out how to maximize income from social security and tax planning, Craig Judd and Smart Financial coordinate these elements to ensure optimal returns and minimal liabilities. Judd adds, “We keep Social Security, tax planners, ROTH conversion, and other retirement experts on staff to make sure no rock is left unturned when it comes to protecting and maximizing your retirement money. We even pay $16,000 for the latest financial software to ensure we’re making the smartest decisions on your behalf.” Another unique aspect of the company's retirement planning approach is succession contingency. Craig explains how most financial planners end up gaining a promotion or moving offices or locations, leaving their clients struggling to find a replacement who will continue the work they have started. At Smart Financial, successors are already being trained so they can take the reins at short notice. The company prides itself on asking difficult questions about retirement and having plans in place if someone gets sick or dies unexpectedly. “Death and retirement shouldn’t be taboo,” says Craig. “I answer the questions you should be asking to ensure you have the most stress-free and maximum amount of money possible.” Smart Financial is a certified Charles Schwab broker, leveraging a long-established and robust financial infrastructure and expert advice from a veteran of the industry.
