PALO ALTO, CA, Sep 28, 2021 - (亚太商讯 via SEAPRWire.com) - 位于加州帕洛阿尔托的创新区块链公司Monsoon Blockchain Corporation 宣布正式推出为Bitcoin Latinum ( https://bitcoinlatinum.com/ ) 提供动力的下一代数字加密货币生态系统。Bitcoin Latinum是一种有保险、有资产支持的加密货币。在Bitcoin的基础上，Bitcoin Latinum更环保、更快速、更安全，并不断对数字交易推出革新。Monsoon Blockchain代表Bitcoin Latinum基金会，是Bitcoin Latinum生态的主要开发者。Bitcoin Latinum是基于开放架构的加密货币技术而建立的。它能够处理海量交易、具备安全性和数字资产管理功能。Monsoon Blockchain发布了Bitcoin Latinum的官方特征、差异化因素和主要优势，包括以下几个方面。交易量更大Bitcoin Latinum提供了一个高度可扩展的网络，最初将支持每秒10,000次交易和每天数百万次交易，以促进零售交易。它具备可扩展的架构，支持增加交易率，从而满足需求。凭借其独特的股权证明共识机制，Bitcoin Latinum确保网络以较低的交易费用促进每分钟更多的交易。降低交易成本Bitcoin Latinum将传统比特币交易的成本从平均每笔交易的多美元降低到只有几美分，2021年每笔交易的平均费用为0.1美元。这是通过各种机制实现的，包括高能效的共识协议，批准的节点配置，高性能的节点互连，以及更短的确认时间。更快的速度利用高效的共识机制，Bitcoin Latinum提供了一个比Bitcoin更好的链上支付网络，平均交易确认时间为3-5秒，从而减少了交易负荷，并增加了交易量。更加绿色、节能Bitcoin Latinum使用高级版本的权益证明（PoS）机制来应对基于工作证明（PoW）的网络的固有问题。PoS使LTNM持有者能够通过持有他们的硬币作为抵押品在Bitcoin Latinum网络上进行抵押获得奖励。这导致了更少的电力消耗。现行的代币，如比特币，每笔交易需要高达885+千瓦时，以太坊需要102+千瓦时的能源消耗，而Bitcoin Latinum则将每笔交易的能耗降低到只有0.00015千瓦时。有保险和资产支持与其他现有的加密货币不同，Bitcoin Latinum是一种有资产支持的加密货币，并且正在努力成为世界上最大的保险数字资产。它的资产支持是以基金模式持有的，因此基础资产价值随着时间的推移而增加。它通过将80%的交易费存回支持该货币的资产基金来加速这种资产支持基金的增长。因此，Bitcoin Latinum被采用得越多，它的资产基金增长得越快...

Although the market remained generally uncertain in 1H2021, with the Group resuming marketing activities for AEON credit cards whilst increasing the frequency and scale of mass promotions, overall sales increased by 22.4% year-on-year. However, the increase in sales mainly resulted in progressive growth of receivable balances in the second quarter, leading to lower monthly revolving credit card balances and personal loan balances in the first half. As a result, revenue was down by 10.9% year-on-year to HK$511.6 million. Nonetheless, with relentless effort to refine credit assessment, the Group now has a better quality portfolio. Furthermore, with expectation of an improving economy and lower unemployment rate, and thanks to the Group's effective collection efforts to reduce overdue advances and receivables, impairment losses and impairment allowances decreased markedly.

SINGAPORE - Moments after an explosion shook a Tuas building and blew out its window panels, the eight workers who were in the workshop at the time ran to a nearby open field screaming in agony. Workers from neighbouring units went to splash water and hose down the badly burnt workers. The brutal experience of the Feb 24 blast at 32E Tuas Avenue 11 was shared by one of the injured workers, Mr Hossain Jitu, 32, before an inquiry committee on Tuesday (Sept 28). "We were screaming in pain at the open field, and workers from neighbouring units came out and started throwing and spraying water on us using a water hose," the Bangladeshi national testified. "I realised my shirt was on fire and part of it had already burnt off. I removed what was left of my burning shirt using my left hand." Mr Jitu, whose scars were visible beneath his mask in court, suffered burns to 54 per cent of his body and had difficulty breathing and closing his eyes. "The skin beneath my eyes was burnt and I was unable to close my eyes and sleep after the accident," he said.

SINGAPORE - Many firms have set for themselves the target of bringing their emissions of planet-warming gases down to net-zero at a certain point in time, but few actually have concrete plans on how to get there, Mr Sunny Verghese, group chief executive of agroforestry company Olam International, said on Tuesday (Sept 28). Speaking during a panel discussion on carbon markets during the Ecosperity Week sustainability conference convened by state investor Temasek, Mr Verghese said the focus of discussions among the business community has always been on why change is needed, and what targets and objectives can be set. "Almost every other day, there is a conference of some kind related to climate and the environment. But in none of these meetings is there a sufficient focus on how and what chief executives and businesses are struggling with in terms of a climate action playbook," he said. Over the past two years, there has been a surge in the number of companies making net-zero declarations as nations pursue a "green recovery" from the Covid-19 pandemic in a way that also deals with the threats posed by climate change. But the road to achieving these targets is plagued with obstacles, ...

SINGAPORE - A man in a car stopped by a parked car in Paya Lebar at 1am on Monday (Sept 27) morning and bashed its windshield. The owner of the parked car, a sales and marketing manager at Amaron Car Batteries, said he was shocked to find a hole in the windscreen of his car at 8am when he was leaving for work. "I opened my car door and found glass shards all around. I was shocked to see a gaping hole in my windshield," the 27-year-old told The Straits Times. "Nothing like this has ever happened to me," he added. Footage from his dashboard camera showed a white Subaru car pulling up to his vehicle, which was parked a distance away from his house, in the wee hours of the morning. The Subaru then made a U-turn. A man, partially out of view of the camera, stepped out of the car and hit the windscreen with an unidentified object. From the damage, the owner suspects that it was an axe. He called the police immediately. The car was towed for repairs after the police left. The owner said he does not think the man had an ulterior motive, and suspects that it was a case of mistaken identity.

The BLA is being submitted under the accelerated approval pathway and is primarily based on clinical, biomarker and safety data from the Phase 2b clinical trial (Study 201) in people with early AD and confirmed amyloid pathology. The lecanemab Phase 2b trial results demonstrated a high degree of Abeta plaque lowering and consistent reduction of clinical decline across several clinical endpoints. The correlation between the extent of Abeta plaque reduction and effect on clinical endpoints in Study 201 further supports Abeta as a surrogate endpoint that is reasonably likely to predict clinical benefit. AD is a serious, progressive and devastating disease with few treatment options. Eisai is utilizing the accelerated approval pathway after discussion with the FDA and aims to bring a new trea...

房地产行业政策调控迎来新机遇, 远大住工全装配式建筑产品初现曙光

HONG KONG, Sep 28, 2021 - (亚太商讯 via SEAPRWire.com) - 近期房地产板块集体下跌，房地产上下游产业链也相继受到影响。在疫情、十四五、三道红线、双集中等新常态的叠加下，中国地产面临着二十年来最深层次的变化。而远大住工自十几年前开始积极推进业务布局优化，深耕研发可移动建筑，坚持实现高质量的规模增长。资本市场对于房地产龙头信用暴雷的事宜产生的担忧情绪，连带对建筑行业相关公司造成影响，使远大住工被“错杀”，估值触底。针对近期债务风险较高的房地产龙头商，远大住工透露，公司并没有与其背靠背的合约，也没有直接的应收账款，大部分项目以现金或承兑汇票结算。同时称，在一年前已加强了对相关项目的违约风险把控。此次房地产行业调控收紧对于远大住工来说可以视为新的发展机遇，基于“十四五”规划，中央将进一步加强落实“有效增加保障性住房，支持建设租赁住房，完善长租房政策，扩大保障性租赁住房供给”。远大住工以PC构件为主的To-B业务以及以全装配建筑成品为主的To-C业务形成的“双轮驱动战略模式”与现行政策贴合，有机会充分体现装配式建筑产品在标准化高、成本低、工期短等方面的优势。目前在同类公司里，远大住工是唯一超前部署并已推出相应类型产品，包括美宅以及BOX（魔方）模块建筑。此外，保障和公共住房等项目更是已经占据公司一半的收入占比，整体业务结构坚实。公司进一步透露，BOX（魔方）产品自今年7月份开始批量生产，订单初现曙光，将于三季度结束后披露产品的相关订单情况。根据公司公告，2021年9月24日，约1.88亿股内资股类别股份转换为公司H股并于9月27日在联交所上市（“转换并上市”），公司H股实现全流通后，带动公司H股流动性和成交改善，公司股价低估的问题有望逐渐缓解，提高公司投资价值发现和估值回归的可能性。此前由于公司流通股比例只有25%，需要保持有25%的外部公众持股比例，公司无法通过在二级市场回购股权来做员工股权激励，公司控股股东也不能在二级市场进行增持。H股全流通后，公司流通股比例提升到63%，为公司回购股权、控股股东二级市场增持打开了空间。尽管公司股价受到新冠疫情以及近期房地产板块波动的影响，但远大住工核心PC业务在2021年上半年呈现同比19.6%的稳健增长，同时公司成功切入C端业务，在市场上取得较好的反响。远大住工正在逐渐推进“规模+效益”战略，实现全国布局，前景可期。 Copyright 2021 亚太商讯.
