Coinbase becomes first international crypto exchange to secure restricted dealer licence in Canada

Published

on

United States (US) cryptocurrency giant Coinbase has announced that it has become registered as a restricted dealer in Canada with the Canadian Securities Administrators (CSA).

This makes Coinbase the first international crypto exchange—and, it claims, the largest—to become registered in Canada to date. In a statement, Coinbase Canada CEO Lucas Matheson called the news “a significant milestone in Coinbase’s journey in Canada,” noting that the company intends to continue working with stakeholders across the country.

Following the collapse of numerous unregulated crypto trading platforms in 2022, the CSA has levied more restrictions on exchanges operating in Canada, seeking to protect investors and prevent another FTX debacle, and pushed all firms to become regulated, leading Coinbase competitor Binance and others to pull out of Canada.

With the news, Coinbase has now joined a group of domestic crypto trading platforms registered with the CSA that includes WonderFi-owned Bitbuy and Coinsquare, Netcoins, Newton, Shakepay, VirgoCX, and Wealthsimple. Other international players, including Crypto.com, Gemini, and Kraken, are also hoping to join these ranks.

Coinbase, which had quietly operated in Canada for some time now, announced its “official entry” into the country in 2023. Last March, the firm completed a pre-registration undertaking, initiating the process of becoming registered with Canadian securities regulators.

“We’re really excited to be committing to Canada for the long term,” Coinbase’s Matheson told BetaKit in an August 2023 interview.

Coinbase is not new to Canada: the company has operated here for years, offering crypto trading services, and investing in Canadian startups. Today, with nearly 200 full-time employees, Canada represents its largest tech hub outside of the US.

According to Matheson, Coinbase sees room to expand in Canada given the country’s “regulatory clarity,” strong developer ecosystem, and crypto-aware population.

This approval comes as Coinbase and other US crypto firms face a regulatory crackdown at home, with Coinbase fighting a lawsuit from the Securities and Exchange Commission regarding the alleged unregistered sale of securities.

Over the past 12 months, international expansion and regulatory approval have been a key focus for the firm, which said it has now obtained licences and registrations in France, Spain, Singapore, Italy, Ireland, and the Netherlands.

Generative AI Market Set for Meteoric Rise, Expected to Reach $266 Billion by 2032

Published

on

USA News Group Commentary

Issued on behalf of Scope AI Corp.

VANCOUVER, BC, May 6, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — USA News Group – Despite a lack of consensus among thousands of experts on the development of artificial intelligence (AI) as it permeates the global economy, one thing is certain, AI is here to stay. According to analysts at Fintech Futures, the Generative AI Market expected to reach a revenue of US$266 billion by 2032, growing at an explosive CAGR of 37.8%. Behind the scenes of this AI-revolution, several tech companies are jockeying for position and adding new propositions for their clients, including developments from Scope AI Corp. (CSE: SCPE) (OTCQB: SCPCF), Cisco Systems, Inc. (NASDAQ: CSCO), Mobileye Global Inc. (NASDAQ: MBLY), Samsara Inc. (NYSE: IOT), and Veritone, Inc. (NASDAQ: VERI).

As the landscape of deep machine learning continues to evolve and reveal its potential across various sectors, Scope AI Corp. (CSE: SCPE) (OTCQB: SCPCF) has recently rebranded and expanded its target market to serve an expanding range of industries. Built upon its proprietary technology, GEM (General Enterprise Machine Learning), Scope recently updated the market regarding GEM’s latest advancements, which now include a one-stop web solution for developers and individuals, as well as businesses, large and small, to create, build, and use their own image detection, behavior analysis and neural network systems for their individual customer business cases.

The newly updated GEM Platform is a SaaS web application equipped with advanced user management tools for administrators or supervisors (CRM), enhanced security for logins and accounts, and comprehensive data encryption built directly into the system. Scope has initially targeted the advertising, gaming, and healthcare industries. The platform’s intuitive web interface allows businesses of any size to easily start and create tailored solutions. Additionally, a sophisticated Application Programming Interface (API) is set to be released later this year.

The new GEM system, set to launch its beta version in late May 2024, offers a comprehensive solution for businesses of any size to develop their own AI-driven object detection and visual information systems. This platform enables companies to experiment with how variations in visuals and user flows impact performance, leveraging the power of neural networks for a wide range of industry-specific applications.

In the field of AI-focused security, Cisco Systems, Inc. (NASDAQ: CSCO) recently launched its latest offering following its $28-billion acquisition of Splunk earlier this year. Dubbed ‘Hypershield‘, the product employs AI to protect applications, devices and data across public and private data centers, clouds, and physical locations.

“Cisco Hypershield is one of the most significant security innovations in our history,” said Chuck Robbins, Chair and CEO of Cisco. “With our data advantage and strength in security, infrastructure and observability platforms, Cisco is uniquely positioned to help our customers harness the power of AI.”

Hypershield’s security enforcement operates at three distinct layers: within the software, across virtual machines, and throughout network and compute servers and appliances. This system utilizes the same advanced hardware accelerators that are commonly employed in high-performance computing environments and large-scale public clouds.

Helping to move the auto industry closer to universal automated assistance and navigation functionality, technology developed by Mobileye Global Inc. (NASDAQ: MBLY) will now be incorporated into vehicles made by both Volkswagen and Porsche. In the case of the Volkswagen deal, VW became the first vehicle manufacturer to develop an autonomous Level 4 service vehicle for large-scale production, after pulling out of its planned investment in Argo AI last year.

“Bringing autonomous shuttles on the road in large quantities requires cooperation from strong partners,” says Christian Senger, member of the Board of Management at Volkswagen Commercial Vehicles, responsible for Autonomous Driving. “We are developing the first fully autonomous large- scale production vehicle, and Mobileye brings its digital driver on board.”

By contrast, Porsche will implement Mobileye’s “Supervision” system, which allows drivers to take their hands off the wheel while traveling on certain road types, and allows the vehicle to follow navigation routes, change lanes, and even overtake slower vehicles ahead.

Quest Waste Management recently selected Samsara Inc. (NYSE: IOT) to provide its industry-leading AI dash cams to improve fleet safety. Samsara’s platform leverages Internet of Things (IoT) data to enable organizations involved in physical operations to gain insights and enhance their operational efficiency. Samsara’s AI Dash Cams and driver coaching tools are designed to provide significant benefits, such as reducing accidents, preventing false claims, and lowering operational costs.

“We look forward to providing [Quest] with the insights and real-time data they need to create a real-world impact on safety, for their employees, customers and the community within which they operate,” said Philip van der Wilt, senior vice president and general manager for Europe, Middle East and Africa (EMEA) at Samsara.

Quest reports having tens of thousands of clients throughout North America and Europe in various sectors, including construction, transportation and warehousing, field services, manufacturing, retail, logistics, and the public sector. In addition to establishing this new comprehensive fleet safety programme, Quest said it plans to also harness the capabilities of Samsara’s Connected Operations Platform in the future.

Looking to help bolster the media industry’s ability to measure its audience sizes, Veritone, Inc. (NASDAQ: VERI) claims that AI can help. During a webinar titled “An Exclusive Debrief: Using AI to Solve Broadcast Media’s Measurement Issue”, Paul Cramer, Managing Director of Media and Broadcast at Veritone spoke to several media members in the audience, to address how AI can help through content intelligence, and advertising intelligence.

“For those of you who aren’t familiar with Veritone, we help you manage and monetize your content using AI, and we work with over 2, 000 media brands in six countries across cultural environments,” said Cramer, noting those brands include CBS News, CNBC, CNN, CNBC, Cox Radio and Television, Hearst Television, iHeartMedia and NBCUniversal.

Veritone recently announced it had enhanced its Advertising and Content Intelligence Suite to support future-proofing of client broadcast revenues. Their Advertising and Content Intelligence Suite offers a robust collection of AI-driven tools that enhance content management, advertising strategies, and audience engagement for media companies, advertisers, and broadcasters. The suite utilizes the aiWARE enterprise AI platform to deliver comprehensive capabilities in media monitoring, content discovery, ad verification, and analytics.

Veritone’s latest enhancements to our Advertising Content and Intelligence Suite empower our clients to adapt to new AI-powered media management methodologies and lead with sophisticated tools that help them to increase their ad revenue,” said Sean King, General Manager for Veritone Media and Entertainment. “Our new enhancements prioritize data privacy and security and provide broadcasters with nearly instant insights, enabling them to make data-driven connections between ad placement and audience impact.”

ICEYE Announces API That Allows Customers to Directly Task World’s Largest SAR Satellite Constellation

Published

on

Two new application programming interfaces (APIs) launched as the first in ICEYE’s wider API ecosystem, empowering customers to access critical data in response to time-sensitive demands.

HELSINKI, May 6, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — ICEYE, the global leader in synthetic aperture radar (SAR) satellite operations, announced the launch of two new application programming interfaces (APIs) that will give customers faster access to imagery from the world’s largest SAR satellite constellation through a self-driven, automated process.

The first API automates the satellite tasking process, enabling machine-to-machine interactions for this critical step. Customers who have built their own platforms to access commercial tasking services may now seamlessly integrate into the ICEYE space and ground architecture without a human-in-the-loop.  The second API automates the process for customers to request SAR imagery from ICEYE’s extensive catalog of over 60,000 archive images.

“We are thrilled to announce this new service, which makes the world’s largest SAR satellite constellation even more accessible to our customers,” said  John Cartwright, SVP and Head of Data Product. “Customers increasingly seek to integrate access to the ICEYE SAR constellation, the largest in the world, through their own platforms.  The end-to-end workflow automation we are releasing today puts this power directly in their hands so they can make smarter, data-driven decisions in near real-time.”

The launch of the API marks an important expansion in how ICEYE fields customer requests for SAR data. With the launch of the new APIs, customers can choose between API-based automation or continue to engage with ICEYE’s renowned 24×7 customer support team. All ICEYE customers undergo an extensive security review to ensure any SAR imagery accessed is used appropriately and shared with trusted parties.

“The new APIs enable efficient access to data from ICEYE’s constellation like never before. As a trusted partner to governments, civil, and commercial organizations, ensuring the appropriate use of our imagery is a top priority,” said Eric Jensen, CEO of ICEYE US. “We conduct rigorous security checks with all prospective customers, and those who meet ICEYE’s stringent standards will benefit from unprecedented access to ICEYE SAR data. “

The two newly released APIs are the first in a series of APIs that ICEYE is creating to expand customer service and improve access to ICEYE data and imagery from around the world.
