Alternet Systems, Inc. (ALYI) Set to Benefit from Rise of Digital Payments

Reaffirming this point, a 2013 study indicated that a massive 80 percent of consumer spending in the U.S. was cashless. Despite this popularity, a total shift away from paper money is unlikely in the short-term, and, according to a report on…

Cherubim Interests, Inc. (CHIT) Construction, Real Estate Development & Cultivation Tech in Focus as Oregon Marijuana Sales Beat Expectations

It looks like the tax revenue assessment on recreational marijuana sales in Oregon by government officials may have underestimated just how big and robust the consumer market really is, with the initial forward projection of around $9 million for 2017 looking like it will be surpassed with ease. Subsequent to recreational sales being approved ahead of schedule via a bill signed by Governor Kate Brown, the amount of money taken in by dispensaries within just the first week alone has effectively crushed the official estimate, as some $11 million in sales were completed in the state’s first week of open…
