KYN Capital Group, Inc. Provides Shareholder Update

Company Outlines Operational Strategy

FRAMINGHAM, MA / ACCESSWIRE / January 31 , 2020 / KYN Capital Group, Inc. (OTC PINK:KYNC) is pleased to provide a shareholder update.

Change of Control:

In December of 2019 the Acting CEO, Phil Sands, made the executive decision to move the company in a different direction and part ways with its Board of Directors. The company elected to re-domicile from Nevada to Colorado and appoint Jason Black as a new Director. Mr. Black, also the CEO of Cann American Corp., has established a solid track record of navigating compliance and corporate structure issues as well a keen ability to re-negotiate outstanding debt instruments and achieve significant share reductions. Additionally, Mr. Black has well established networks throughout the hemp and cannabis industries. These relationships strongly appeal to the company's plans going forward.
Though most of the previous board had already resigned, there became some debate over Mr. Sands' authority to act without the approval of then Secretary, Sayekhul Islam. After a few weeks of negotiations, the parties came to a settlement where all corporate actions from December forward were affirmed and recognized as valid and Mr. Islam, as well as all previous board members, submitted formal resignations.

Settlement:

Though many of the details of the Settlement Agreement with former Directors are confidential, the company was able to negotiate a 400,000,000 common stock reduction of 800,000,000 shares issued to a former Officer. The remaining 400,000,000 are restricted. The company was also able to secure all credentials to OTC Markets, bank accounts, websites and emails necessary for company operations.

OTC Markets:

Due to a volume of activities on the OTC Markets account during the control dispute, OTC took the step of temporarily locking the account. The company is required to submit a new application detailing the change in control and submitting the subsequent fees. This process is under way and OTC Markets should update soon.

Share Structure:

The company is currently working with several note holders and shareholders to re-negotiate debts and issuances previously executed by former management. The company has coordinated with a "friendly" debt holder to create a significant share reserve and max out the O/S in order to block other debt holders from converting into the market. Though this may reflect as an increase in the O/S, the share reserve is not intended to be issued or enter the market but rather intended to leverage other note holders to come to the table and re-negotiate their debts. The current float is approximately 1.1 billion. The company believes this strategy, as well as several other confidential strategies, will avoid the need to effect a reverse stock split and the company has no intention of doing so at this time.

Operations:

The company intends to return to its core mission of asset-based lending to promising companies and start-ups operating both privately and publicly. There have been numbers of strong opportunities presented previously that were unable to close due to competing views within the former board that are now being revisited. The company is also engaging several new opportunities that have recently been presented as well as potential joint ventures with other public companies.
The company has been able to establish non-dilutive funding through a third party to help execute on deals under consideration. There will be additional updates as the company expects to close on several targets quickly, outlining the investment, the company's revenue stake and value to shareholders.

Statement:

Stated CEO, Phil Sands: "I am reinvigorated and inspired to be able to steer the company unhindered in the direction I had envisioned. The assistance of our new Director, Mr. Black, has already proven to be invaluable. We've been able to make more progress in the past few weeks than I was able to make in the past nine months. This is truly a new chapter for KYN and I look forward to updating shareholders very soon as we execute on a number of significant milestones and our new vision for the future."

Forward Looking Statements:

This press release contains forward-looking statements. The words "believe," "may," "estimate," "continue," "anticipate," "intend," "should," "plan," "could," "target," "potential," "is likely," "will," "expect" and similar expressions, as they relate to us, are intended to identify forward-looking statements. The Company has based these forward-looking statements largely on our current expectations and projections about future events and financial trends that we believe may affect our financial condition, results of operations, business strategy and financial needs. Some or all of the results anticipated by these forward-looking statements may not be achieved. Any forward-looking statement made by us herein speaks only as of the date on which it is made. Factors or events that could cause our actual results to differ may emerge from time to time, and it is not possible for us to predict all of them. The Company undertakes no obligation to publicly update any forward-looking statement, whether as a result of new information, future developments or otherwise, except as may be required by law.

Jeff Nock demonstrates how to get the right people in the right seats of a company

Business consultant Jeff Nock, from Iowa City, Iowa, explains how to get the right people in the right seats at your company.

IOWA CITY, IA / ACCESSWIRE / January 31, 2020 / Getting the right people in the right seats is essential for the success of any company. That's according to business consultant Jeff Nock, from Iowa City, Iowa, as he outlines a number of key ways to both attract and retain the best people, and to ensure that they're in precisely the right seats for success.

Attracting the right people is Jeff Nock's first area of focus. "I often recommend that any company or organization should aim to boast at least five benefits tailored toward attracting the right people in the first instance," says the business consultant and marketing expert, speaking from his office in Iowa City, Iowa.

Business owners are, he says, free to choose the five or more benefits which they see most fit. As a business consultant and expert in the field, however, Jeff Nock has, he believes, whittled down dozens of possible benefits to the five which he believes have the best potential in getting the right people in the right seats of a company. "These," he reveals, "are culture, fair pay, recognition, variety, and rewards."

"People want to be happy in their work," Jeff Nock continues, "and from establishing a winning corporate culture to ensuring variety, fair pay, and recognition more generally, a truly rewarding working environment is, I believe, the best way to get the right people through the door."

The secret, meanwhile, to ensuring that people are, and remain, in the right seats at your company is, according to Jeff Nock, also partly down to cementing in place effective processes, supported, wherever possible, by the appropriate tools, software, and other systems.

It's essential, he says, that clear roles are defined if people's skills are to be utilized as best as possible. "Define clear roles at all levels and match the appropriate skills to each of these," suggests the Iowa-based business consultant.

"The correct structure and defined skills and roles will, then," he adds, wrapping up, "allow a company's systems and processes to, as a result, operate as effectively as possible, with just the right people in exactly the right seats at your business."

Founder and CEO of Prescient Consulting, LLC, based in Iowa City, Iowa, Jeff Nock boasts a demonstrated history of growing nonprofit organizations, startups, and established companies alike. Skilled in business and strategic planning, branding, sales, and marketing, now-established Iowa resident Nock also holds a master's degree in management from Colorado's Regis University and is a specialist in management development.

LOS ANGELES, CA / ACCESSWIRE / January 31, 2020 / The Schall Law Firm, a national shareholder rights litigation firm, announces the filing of a class action lawsuit against Merit Medical Systems, Inc.

Based on these facts, the Company's public statements were false and materially misleading throughout the class period. When the market learned the truth about Merit Medical, investors suffered damages.

TRON-based BeatzCoin (BTZC) Releases Major VibraVid.io Platform Update

TEL AVIV, ISRAEL / ACCESSWIRE / January 31, 2020 / VibraVid's new features include User Profiles, Follow Option, Shareable Links to Social Media, Dark Mode and the ability for guests to Explore Without Login, giving users and creators a whole new array of options to enjoy and upload music and video content.

The music and audio platform VibraVid.io, based on the TRON blockchain network and powered by the BeatzCoin (BTZC) token, has implemented a major upgrade to its content sharing platform. All the new features added to VibraVid are a direct result of the widespread and passionate feedback from the global BeatzCoin community, which now consists of over 4,600 VibraVid users and 20,000 BTZC holders worldwide.

Although the BeatzCoin team has only yet launched the VibraVid Minimal Viable Product (MVP) at this point, VibraVid has more than 2,000 audio and video files uploaded to its decentralized file storage using the distributed BitTorrent's BTFS network. VibraVid as a platform has recorded more than 140,000 blockchain transactions on TRON since launch, while the BTZC token has garnered over 1.5 million total transactions. BTZC has risen to become a top traded token on the TRON-based DEXs TronTrade and PoloniDEX, and inside the widely used TronWallet's new built-in SWAP feature.

Given that the BTZC token is built on the 3rd generation TRON blockchain, which is capable of 2,000 TPS and a delivery speed of transaction of just 3 seconds, these BTZC transactions are not only free, but also near instant. No need to wait to be paid as a content creator anymore. And no middlemen. Instead, creators keep 95% of their revenue on the platform.

BeatzCoin has over the past months expanded the developers team under the leadership of a new US-based Director of Technology. The devs have successfully deployed the following new features expanded upon below, all aimed at simplifying the user experience and giving a wider array of options on the platform for creators and users alike.

VibraVid is also in advanced partnership negotiations with a major music application to integrate BTZC as a reward token to their users. Additionally, the BeatzCoin developers team commenced work on a Mobile VibraVid App this week.

User Profiles

With this new update, each VibraVid user can now create their own User Profile and showcase their Albums, Music, Video and Bio in a simple and easily accessible fashion. User can also see which of their favorite creators' music tracks and videos have gotten the most views on VibraVid.

Follow Option

Accompanying User Profiles are VibraVid's new Follow Button, which means that fans can easily find their favorite artist and creator work, both music tracks and videos. Notifications to followers will follow after the developer's team have tested the stability of the base framework.

Shareable Links

Being able to directly share links on social media is essential to reach a new audience, and VibraVid now provides this option with an added feature that anyone can watch and enjoy the content, with or without login. This is an important step for VibraVid to attract tens of thousands of new users and content creators over the coming months. BeatzCoin's developers are currently implementing a feature to have these shareable links be accompanied by a picture/thumbnail of the music track or video being shared.

Explore Without Login

Exploring VibraVid without the need to login means that anyone can start watching and exploring VibraVid, whether you have an account or not. This feature is aimed at attracting thousands of new users and removing the threshold of having to directly register to VibraVid to be able to enjoy the platform's content. Guests can view content, but only registered users can earn, get paid and receive bounties from uploaders.

Dark mode

To increase the options of users, VibraVid has implemented Dark Mode and Day Mode following community feedback. Future updates will also include different shading of the Dark Mode, so as to further increase the alternatives available for the users.

BeatzCoin founder and VibraVid CEO Steven Zambron stated in regards to the update:

"We at BeatzCoin are very excited to offer a more stable and user-friendly experience on our platform, VibraVid. I invite all of you to take a look, give it a try, and invite your friends and family. Enjoying great content on a decentralized network and earning cryptocurrency has never been easier, faster and more exciting."

Additional Enhancements in this Update

– UI/UX improvements

– Optimized registration

– "Trending" is now well defined

– Improved notifications

– Video description has improved formatting allowing for interactive texts with URLs supported

– Search filter for Free, Bounty and Premium content

– Improvements and added options related to Upload

Upcoming features in next Update

– Better Upload UI/UX

– A full site UI and design revamp

– A better relationship between followers and content creators such as Notifications, Homepage video suggestions, etc.

– Tronwalletme/Tronlink login

– A more interactive comment section where users can respond to one another with Like and Reply features

Mobile App

BeatzCoin's developers team has commenced development of a Mobile App for VibraVid for both iOS and Android. VibraVid is also working together with the Tron Foundation to integrate the future Mobile App on all Samsung devices, which today numbers above 2 billion.

Advertising on VibraVid

Another major milestone for VibraVid is advertisement integration, which will further increase the revenue of the platform and further elevate the utility of the BeatzCoin token. VibraVid Inc already have numerous parties lined up for ad placement on the site, which will be integrated over the coming week for all VibraVid users to see.

Given the expanded BeatzCoin developers team, VibraVid will be implementing new updates on a weekly or bi-weekly basis in order to optimize the platform and make it become one of the main contenders to threaten YouTube, Spotify and SoundCloud's near hegemony on content sharing online.

The BTZC token is available for exchange without KYC directly in the TronWallet.Me app under the SWAP feature, or for trading on TronTrade.io and Poloniex.org.

These newly implemented features are all in line with the BeatzCoin team's overall goal to eventually grab a large portion of the online content sharing industry through the blockchain-powered and decentralized platform VibraVid. Being a fully community-based and driven project, VibraVid is providing content creators and users a fair share of the revenue and gives ownership back to the artists who create the content we all love.
