About Hemogenyx Pharmaceuticals plc

Hemogenyx Pharmaceuticals is a publicly traded company (LSE:HEMO) headquartered in London, with its US operating subsidiaries, Hemogenyx Pharmaceuticals LLC and Immugenyx LLC, located in New York City at its state-of-the-art research facility.

The Company is a pre-clinical stage biopharmaceutical group developing new medicines and treatments to treat blood and autoimmune disease and to bring the curative power of bone marrow transplantation to a greater number of patients suffering from otherwise incurable life-threatening diseases. Hemogenyx Pharmaceuticals is developing several distinct and complementary product candidates, as well as platform technologies that it uses as engines for novel product development.

For more than 50 years, bone marrow transplantation has been used to save the lives of patients suffering from blood diseases. The risks of toxicity and death that are associated with bone marrow transplantation, however, have meant that the procedure is restricted to use only as a last resort. The Company’s technology has the potential to enable many more patients suffering from devastating blood diseases such as leukemia and lymphoma, as well as severe autoimmune diseases such as multiple sclerosis, aplastic anemia and systemic lupus erythematosus (Lupus), to benefit from bone marrow transplantation.

Reason Launches World’s First NFT Escape Room

Reason, a San Francisco startup, launches the world’s first NFT escape room experience this week, Glitch. The game merges gaming technology with the power of non-fungible tokens and creates a seamless way for players to interact with digital blockchain items in the real world.

Known for leading the digital transformation of escape rooms in 2020 and injecting future tech into a predominantly analog game medium back in 2016, Reason is no stranger to experimentation. With a mission to humanize our relationship with technology and each other, the company is taking its first step towards making the metaverse accessible for all.

Scheduled to open to the public in Q1 of 2022, Glitch is an immersive in-person escape room set in a futuristic Fab, a Silicon wafer fabrication plant. The fab is the only one in the world capable of producing next-generation chips for phones, cars, and fighter jets. However, a glitch has been detected and players must debug the Fab in order to prevent the world from grinding to a halt.

Besides a functioning Fab, players will need a Codex, which contains machine instructions required for the wafer fabrication process. Each codex has unique attributes that can help players in this process and affect the physical environment around them.

For the NFT art collectors, a Codex is a unique generative digital art piece that lives on the blockchain forever and can not be replicated, tempered, or destroyed. It will be the first non-fungible token of of its kind that can alter its physical environment. The Codex drop is scheduled for December. Those interested can sign up to be notified at http://www.tryreason.com/NFT

COINLENDING LAUNCHES THEIR GROUNDBREAKING COIN SECURED LOAN SERVICE TO THE WORLD

Innovative cryptocurrency lending platform, CoinLending, announces the launch of their coin secured loan service to provide collateralized loans and payment services to customers

The team at CoinLending has again reiterated their commitment to providing crypto enthusiasts in different parts of the world with the best possible experience as the platform recently launched their coin-secured loan service. The product is designed for individuals that want coin-collateralized loans and interest payment services, allowing them to access loans with Bitcoin as well as several altcoins.

We expect this service to help overcome economic difficulties at a time when the world is struggling due to the outbreak of Corona 19,” a CoinLending official said. “CoinLending is an expert with deep experience in blockchain software development and blockchain economy. We provide high-quality support services 24/7 around the world.

The world of cryptocurrency has continued to expand over the years, with a plethora of products emerging to meet the growing and diverse needs of different stakeholders in the market. In a related development, lending platforms and institutions have emerged in recent times to provide facilities to borrowers in digital currency. Unfortunately, many of the coin-secured loan services are available only with Bitcoin and major altcoins, ultimately limiting access to such loans. However, CoinLending seeks to change this narrative as substantiated with the launch of their coin-secured loan service.

The loan service launched by CoinLending is unique, paying interest unlimited to some coins while also providing loans with other coins entrusted by the customer. Other amazing features of CoinLending’s service include flexibility on deposits, instant receipt of interest after deposit, and varying interest rates depending on the supply and demand for each cryptocurrency in the lending market.

The coin-backed loan service can be effectively described as an altcoin secured loan service, as it supports various coins such as Bitcoin, Ethereum, and any ERC20 tokens, as well as stable coins such as Tether, USDC, TrueUSD,  allowing as many people as possible to be a part of the service.

For more information about the lending services offered by CoinLending and to apply for a loan, visit – https://coinlending.io/borrow/.

Passwords in the Finance Industry

Revolutionary Technology by GateKeeper Boosts Password Security of Florida Financial Firm

GateKeeper Enterprise, the innovative proximity-based two-factor authentication solution, announced the release of its 2FA case study with BARR Financial Services, LLC, a financial advisory firm based in Winter Park, Florida. After deploying the patented GateKeeper authentication solution, BARR Financial slashed its helpdesk ticket requests by 50 percent.

Kirk BARR Young, the CEO of BARR Financial Services, had more than 35 years of professional financial investment experience when his team tackled the burgeoning amount of helpdesk tickets generated by users with password-related issues — an average of four tickets each week.

BARR Financial sold services, not products. As a life-planning firm focused on family, BARR Financial always aimed to operate at the highest standard in a sector where the legal responsibility to protect the security and data of its clientele was vital.

BARR Financial realized that in order to best preserve the financial well-being of its clients, it needed to streamline the interactive process with its evolving consumer base, as well as safeguard against the potential security risks presented by cyberattacks and insider threats. The answer was GateKeeper’s advanced access control solution for computers and passwords. BARR Financial would, yet again, go above and beyond to protect its clientele.

Any IT manager operating in the financial vertical understands the challenges faced by BARR Financial. According to the Gartner Group, between 20% to 50% of all helpdesk calls are for password resets and have become a burden for all enterprises.

There were three key challenges that BARR Financial wanted to resolve:
1. Passwords needed to be complex and impenetrable, yet users often created passwords that were easy to remember and used them both at home and at work, resulting in major security issues.
2. User logins were far too slow. Sluggish logins had to be expedited without compromising security.
3. Password policies and updates needed to be automated and become more efficient.

BARR Financial was not alone in seeking solutions to these problems. A Microsoft Security article reported that an average of one in every 250 corporate accounts was compromised each month and that people reused an average of five total passwords, both business and personal. A universal shift away from the use of passwords had developed, with organizations in crucial sectors exploring ways to implement passwordless authentication.

Dr. Sid Potbhare, CEO of Untethered Labs, tackled these challenges when his team designed GateKeeper Enterprise to solve the need for user-centric passwordless and continuous authentication. GateKeeper is a user-friendly authentication solution that ensures individual workstation security and privacy in small and large businesses with a patented combination of hardware and software based on real-life human behaviour:

  • Co-workers share the same computers
  • People walk away from their desks without logging out
  • Knowingly or unknowingly, employees engage in behavior that can result in confidential data loss — critical concerns in the financial sector

Dr. Potbhare stated the challenge: “How can an organization implement robust security policies that go beyond the first and only authentication to make sure data is not put at risk at the most commonly breached endpoint in network security – the person using the computer?”

GateKeeper sat down with BARR Financial’s upper management team to find answers to these challenges and implement solutions:
1. GateKeeper’s password manager provided one-time passwords (TOTP), eliminating the need for SMS or manual authentication.
2. GateKeeper’s proximity-based wireless access tokens streamlined the login process, automatically unlocking and auto-locking the user’s computer while enhancing security by monitoring real-time access.
3. GateKeeper’s 2FA method used a secret PIN and the security token’s proximity for hands-free authentication and instant logins.

After implementing GateKeeper’s 2FA and password management solutions, BARR Financial slashed its helpdesk tickets down to an average of just two tickets per user each month and streamlined the login process. Mr. Kirk Young, BARR Financial CEO, said, “GateKeeper just works. No longer typing passwords. We walk up to the computer, and everything is ready for us. We love GateKeeper and could not live without it.”

About GateKeeper

Enterprise 2FA and password management system that seamlessly accesses computers, websites, and software, GateKeeper provides passwordless instant login and auto-locks PCs with a security token, allowing for a password-free experience.

‘Buy Now, Pay Later’ Can Support the Travel Industry Recovery According to Zip Co

As more consumers look to book a post-pandemic trip, ‘buy now, pay later’ (BNPL) services can provide much needed cash flow for battered tourism industry operators.

In 2020, the global travel industry was hard hit by the COVID-19 pandemic. In Australia, international and domestic borders slammed shut and many people were largely confined to their homes. Now, with many people eager to book holidays, the leading global buy now pay later company, Zip Co, says BNPL services can support the travel industry’s recovery.

According to Zip, travel expenses present an opportunity for consumers to take advantage of BNPL products, as holidays often represent big purchases that many consumers might not have the cash on hand to pay for at the time of the booking. With BNPL services like Zip Pay, consumers can spread the expenses over time into more manageable, interest free payments.

For holidaymakers, BNPL presents an opportunity to lock in travel plans early, when prices are lower and then spread the cost of the trip over affordable repayments. Travel expenses can quickly add up, so for holidaymakers, the possibility of spreading the cost of their travel makes it more appealing and affordable, giving them flexibility with their budgeting.

Zip says for the travel industry, BNPL services can inject much-needed cash flow into businesses that have struggled to stay afloat during the pandemic. When a customer uses Zip Pay, the business gets paid on the same day by Zip, with payment of approved transactions guaranteed. Zip supports many leading online and POS payment platforms, so it’s easy for businesses to get up and running and processing payments.

Businesses can also benefit from Zip’s Trade and Trade Plus products, which provide business owners with an interest-free line of credit to help them settle invoices, pay bills and purchase supplies. In a period where rolling COVID-19 lockdowns are creating significant uncertainty for the travel sector, Zip Business solutions can support companies across the industry to manage their cash flow.

As an industry leader, Zip simplifies how consumers pay, by offering fast, fair and seamless payment solutions online and instore, as well as small business loans. To learn more, contact Zip directly.
