$OWPC 260K and 200K blocks on the ASK at .12. As if someone hopes to hold the price here for loading. Let's see what happens to those blocks and the price-trade action over the next day or three.
Once again, it appears Isiah is keen on protecting shareholders from dilution. Using Preferred shares for capital raise, rather than dilution by issuing Common shares and certainly not taking on any toxic debt.
Glad to be a patient shareholder here - I feel we WILL be very happy to have held and accumulated for so long, once the coming news cycle begins rolling!!
$OWPC Looks like good news coming - I think we're going to see an announcement of new investor funding incoming!

Despite global economic volatility, carbon markets remain 'stable and growing'

Author Brandon Mulder
While volatility and uncertainty has hampered the global economy through the first half of 2022, one asset class that has managed to outperform expectations is carbon credits – a sign that the voluntary carbon market is reaching a new level of maturity and sophistication, carbon traders say.
"Unlike cryptocurrency or Bitcoin, the carbon market is underpinned by existentially important intrinsic demand for the end use of the product – a carbon credit exists to be retired," he said. "Our view is that there is stable and growing demand for carbon credits to be used as an emissions reduction tool."
"In spite of the economic headwinds, we're seeing buyers get more focused on [vintage] recency, on quality and on nature," Turner said. "Those are trends that are evidence based that I think should stand the test of time, and I think are indicative of a market that's maturing and getting more sophisticated."

Yeah, and you know, I didn't think about it specifically when I first read that tweet, but now I see it - he said "meetings." That's plural. Why would you have multiple meetings on a Sunday... on a long national holiday weekend, where you have folks like Zeke and Montel and the Ken (MD, Surgeon, Founder of OWPC) attending, taking prime time away from family, friends, celebration of national pride and independence, not to mention other work or simply the prime personal time?
In any case, I appreciate their dedication and devotion to the $OWPC mission!
$OWPC Interesting that management met on a Sunday - and during the July 4 holiday weekend, nonetheless. It's the end of Q2, so it could be a regular quarterly meeting, but... Montel Williams also being there? Yes, he's been involved for quite a while now, but he's an advisor, not a board member or officer or top management. It has the feel of something substantial that's happening, and Isiah's gathering the big stakeholders and insiders to discuss or lay out the big things that are about to unfold. Though, again, it's the end of the 2nd quarter, and this could very well be a regular meeting. (but on July 3rd, a Sunday, on the holiday long weekend?!? whatever)
Isiah & Ken were in Colombia again just two weeks ago. Prior to that, Isiah was there with what seems like the whole management and advisory gang of One World Products in early to mid-May. And there's been a flurry of interviews and tweets and other media comments from Isiah and others in recent weeks and over the past two months.
As I've been saying, I think we're getting ready to launch.

Affordable Housing, Less Carbon: DOE Funds Texas A&M University 3D-Printed Hempcrete Project
by
Nicolás Jose Rodriguez, Benzinga Staff Writer
July 1, 2022 5:26 PM | 2 min read
The Department of Energy (DOE) has awarded Texas A&M University $3.47 million to support a project to 3D print a bio-aggregate composite consisting of hemp hurd and a lime-based binder, also known as hempcrete, a material with the potential to lower the environmental impact of traditional construction and make housing more affordable and available, reported Alyson Chapman for local media.
Funding will be provided through the program Harnessing Emissions into Structures Taking Inputs from the Atmosphere (HESTIA) from the DOE’s Advanced Research Projects Agency-Energy (ARPA-E).
"While production of conventional construction materials such as concrete requires large amounts of energy and releases large amounts of CO2 (carbon dioxide), hempcrete is a net carbon-negative material, which can provide major environmental benefits," said Dr. Petros Sideris, assistant professor in the Zachry Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering and principal investigator behind the project. "Resilience to natural hazards is intertwined with environmental sustainability because building damage and subsequent repairs due to extreme events such as hurricanes result in major environmental impacts.”
Hempcrete resists mold, fire, and pests and practically lasts forever. Not to mention, it can capture carbon. In fact, NBA star Isiah Thomas, CEO of One World Products, Inc. (Ticker: OWPC), the largest Black-controlled, fully-licensed hemp and cannabis producer in Colombia, recently announced plans to commercialize the vast carbon credit opportunities contained within the company’s control of approximately 1.2 million acres of farmland in Colombia.
U.S. Worldwide Leadership In Advanced Construction Methods
In January, the US Hemp Building Foundation submitted an appendix to the International Residential Codes (IRC). Once accepted, hempcrete will be an approved natural building material in the United States.
"The advancements of this project will contribute to the U.S. maintaining its worldwide leadership in advanced construction methods and infrastructure sustainability and resilient technologies," Sideris said.
Sideris’ team consists of department head and professor Dr. Zachary Grasley, professor Dr. Anand Puppala, professor Dr. Wei Yan, assistant professor Dr. Maria Koliou and associate professor Dr. Manish Dixit.
There are many possible revenue streams, some of which could be announced under contract any time, any day now. Isiah has discussed all of these revenue streams through various interviews over the past several months - his appearances, meetings and interviews have stepped up something like 5 fold over the past few months, compared to the previous year. Several links posted here over the past month to 2 months.
We very well could see a PR as soon as Tuesday, for example, announcing a Carbon Credits "Securities" contract. It'll take 4 months start to finish to plant, grow and harvest hemp. Stellantis could "secure" (4 months) future Carbon Credits with a down payment that would go toward $millions of credits once the hemp is harvested, and Isiah would then pull the trigger with growers within the AMUNAFRO group to plant, grow and harvest UP TO 1.2 million acres of hemp.
We don't need to know precisely what we're going to do with the Hemp just yet, but there's 4 month to make a final decision on what will be done with the Hemp Fiber to sequester the Carbon - whether it goes to plastic pellets, potentially plastic components or packaging through partnership or contract with outsourced plastics mfg, hempcrete, or even to a hemp raw materials buyer, etc.
Much more can be discussed about the above scenario, or about other ways that income and investment could begin tallying up almost immediately. But the gist is that we could see announcements about this and other news any day (e.g. CBD extraction facility complete, new investor(s), supply chain agreements, etc.).
Actually, the Supreme Court ruling reverses nothing, changes nothing. It simply stopped the Biden administration from putting West Virginia's power plant industry out of business overnight, and gave the "accelerated green" issues back to the states, which Constitutionally have power/authority to regulate their own industries as their voters choose, through elected officials.
The Supreme Court ruling simple stated that, to accelerate the green agenda beyond any milestone numbers or timeline mandated by The Clean Air Act (legislation passed by Congress, initially enacted in 1963 and revised many times since), requires new legislation from Congress. AND, until such new legislation stipulates otherwise, the power is within each individual state to mandate, regulate, or whateverate the voters decide.
Well, the voters in California and 11 blue states in the northeastern U.S. have decided to support the Green Agenda. That's NOT going to change. These states all currently support and participate in the Carbon Credits market(s). That's NOT going to change as a result of this Supreme Court ruling.
Many other countries are also involved in and completely support the Carbon Credits market. That's NOT going to change (certainly not as a result of any U.S. Supreme Court ruling that simply puts the power in the hands of the individual states).
SO... note that California PLUS the 11 member states of the RGGI (Regional Greenhouse Gas Initiative) WILL CONTINUE to support the carbon credits.
ALSO NOTE... the case was specifically about power plant emissions and the recent attempt to accelerate emissions reductions by power plants from something like 23% by 2030 to ~32%, under the Biden Administration, which cited power of Regulatory Authority under to the Clean Power Plan (devised under the Obama Administration) as supposedly provided for by the Clear Air Act.
Biden & Company were simply attempting to put West Virginia's power plant industry out of business, much like it has attempted with the Oil and Natural Gas industry nationwide. West Virginia decided to fight it. West Virginia won. It's not going to change the global push to reduce carbon, and it's not going to cause California or the blue RGGI states to stop supporting the green initiative or the emission reduction and carbon credits markets.
$HDUP HeadsUp Entertainment Closes Global Digital Lottery Transaction with LotteryHub
Canada NewsWire
CALGARY, AB, June 30, 2022
CALGARY, AB, June 30, 2022 /CNW/ - HeadsUp Entertainment International Inc. (OTCPINK: HDUP) is pleased to announce it has now taken full control of the LotteryHub platform which has to date been servicing more than 4 million American users as a lottery information platform.
In the lead up to the transaction, HeadsUp has been active in securing global partnerships to expand the LotteryHub brand globally and strategically position it as the leader of online sales for state and national lotteries.
HeadsUp is also announcing it has secured partnerships in Peru, Brazil, Mexico, Eastern Europe and Eastern Africa (including Nigeria) and has ongoing discussions to enable national and state lottery partners to enhance their online offering and sell official tickets globally. The secured partnerships will give LotteryHub access to an immediate 120 million international customer base upon release of existing partnerships
The US lottery market in 2021 generated $94.9 Billion in revenue from lottery ticket sales. The Global Lottery market currently generates approximately $350 Billion in revenues and is set to grow to $450 Billion by the year 2027. LotteryHub aims to assist lottery partners in their online growth strategy with its integrated digital portal as a Digital Lottery Concierge Service.
LotteryHub aims to improve its current offering by expanding its offering into online sales across various US state markets as regulations change over the coming years and improve its market share as it moves into new markets. Globally, LotteryHUB aims to utilize the success of its online presence to expand the brand globally into new markets to act as an online retailer and software platform for National and State based lotteries who see the need to go online and take advantage of the shift in online commerce since he onset of covid. LotteryHUB's software and platform uniquely positions itself as an immediate opportunity to many new global opportunities
Across the US, LotteryHUB has been a go to information platform for players over the past years and HeadsUp aims to transform the platform into a full-fledged online retailer enabling all states to participate in the sale of their games and products online in a safe and secure environment over time as legislation changes.
"Access for global lottery operators utilize software such as LotteryHUB is huge for all of our partners and in times of recession and tough economic conditions, the lottery and gaming sectors see unprecedent growth in market size and the ability for the HeadsUp line of products and services fast tracks the path to massive revenues," commented HeadsUp President and CEO Doug Wilson.
The global strategy behind the growth and global rollout of the LotteryHub brand aims to support state and national lotteries in creating an increased online presence without the burden of additional software costs, immediate online presence, and the ability to tap into online markets otherwise unavailable to the lottery partner.
This has been a targeted acquisition by HeadsUp and is excited about bringing LotteryHUB into its family of products which will allow the company to launch and supports the larger acquisition strategy of global gaming assets in subsequent deals that are being closed and will be announced subsequently. This business model and corporate finance strategy has been designed by global lottery icon and HeadsUp Chief Business Development Officer Mark Hutchinson.
This transaction required neither any upfront cash payment nor any dilution to HeadsUp capital structure as consideration was negotiated and agreed to on an ongoing revenue share basis.
"My decades of working in the lottery business have come to an incredible moment where new regulatory opportunities, technology and a global network of business relationship are converging to position HeadsUp to aggressively acquire strategic assets, close sales and distribution agreements and make a substantial amount of money in the business" stated Hutchinson. "When the market realizes what we have built, I believe this Company will experience massive growth that will translate into enhanced shareholder value that I am very proud to help create along with this exceptional management team. This is a perfect example of the right people, with the right products at the right time.
This is a substantial step for HeadsUp to continue executing on its business plan and management believes these "Crown Jewel" assets are key to the continued strategy of specific acquisitions that will continue to be announced. This is one of 4 Strategic Business Unit's within the HeadsUp group of companies that combined are estimated to generate over $51.7 million in revenues in year 1 with Business Plan projections to grow to over $400 million in year 5 of operations. This and a subsequent series of other closings will create a total asset base and contracted revenue model to qualify for a full NASDAQ listing.
The previously announced corporate roadmap outlines a reverse triangle merger, a Registration Statement and immediate launch of multiple revenue channels in the online gaming, global lottery and media sectors.

$OWPC Yes, you can see from Level 2 and price/volume trade activity that it's getting more difficult to accumulate or start a position of any size without raising the bid substantially or buying the ask, which moves the price upward or at a minimum supports the price.
Just wait till we see volume. It's coming. The first PR with any numbers, like a contract signed or any sort of commitment from a buyer/customer in any market sector... I think we'll see a significant uptick in volume and therefore much higher prices.
Me too. Everything is converging here in a crazy good way. Tick tock, I'm looking forward to news with a material impact very soon.

$OWPC Another good find, thanks for posting! So here we go again, Isiah talking very specifically about the Hemp as The New Plastic! Quite an awareness campaign Isiah has started, and I believe it's leading up to some "launch" news that Isiah and the IR & funding team/advisors are prepping for. I'm on the edge of my seat looking for such news to come any time in the next days/weeks... maybe as long as a month?
Yes, let's! I probably won't have much time for about a week or so, with some travel starting today. But real soon, anyway.
Wow, that was a pretty convenient referral, thanks! Yes, I'll bet this was what I had in the back of my mind, because I DID in fact listen to that 2020 investor call again just 2 or 3 weeks ago.
The great part is this 2020 discussion was strictly about the supply chain and offering large-volume customers (e.g. automotive/hemp, cosmetics/CBD) the ability to secure their supply... and more. But NOW we can see how this whole idea can extend to the carbon offsets/credits market, or at least that extension is what I unconsciously assumed - in vaguely remembering the "futures" discussion. Wow, just wait until Isiah formally connects the dots here in a PR, and especially with an announcement of the first contract! This is just awesome!!

Here's another good write-up on hemp and Carbon Capture & Sequestration. It touches on many good points regarding industrial hemp for carbon farming, all in one shot.
I believe it may have been written in 2014, not sure, so the market is much more "ready" for this now - globally - since it was written. Many smart folks around the world think we are within spitting distance from the true "tipping point" for this market to absolutely launch forward in a big way. And what better time for it to happen when the broader market is in such a tough spot, looking for somewhere truly worthwhile and with a huge growth runway to put... CASH! The market apparently doesn't love growth stocks at this very moment, nor value stocks, nor crypto, nor gold. And apparently the big investment banks and institutions are not super excited about simply settling for bonds I've got my bet on OWPC: better than growth stocks, value stocks, crypto OR gold, and really ready to launch!!

The Role of Industrial Hemp in Carbon Farming
Name: James Vosper BSCHons, FRGS
Company: GoodEarth Resources PTY Ltd (ABN 79 124 022 859)
Summary
We submit that industrial hemp be seriously considered as a crop that can contribute
significantly to the Australian Government’s aim to reduce global atmospheric Carbon
Dioxide.
Industrial hemp has been scientifically proven to absorb more CO2 per hectare than any forest or commercial crop and is therefore the ideal carbon sink. In addition, the CO2 is permanently bonded within the fiber that is used for anything from textiles, to paper (and plastics), and as a building material. It is currently being used by BMW in Germany to replace plastics in car construction. It is therefore additional to what would otherwise be grown or sourced from oil. It can be constantly replanted and as such meets permanence criteria as defined by the
Kyoto Protocol.
Industrial hemp is not marijuana. Industrial hemp is the name of the soft fiber from the
Cannabis Sativa plant. It is distinguished from the psychoactive varieties by having low (less than 0.05) levels of the chemical THC (Tetrahydrocannabinol). It has been developed to grow long fibers and in dense plantations thereby increasing the biomass. See below:-
Hemp can be grown on a widespread scale throughout Australia, on nutrient-poor soils and with very small amounts of water and NO fertilisers. Hemp can be grown on existing agricultural land (unlike most forestry projects), and can be included as part of a farm's crop rotation with positive effects on overall yields of follow on crops. It can therefore comply with the Australian Government’s plans to increase employment and improve the economic position of remote areas. This is especially relevant to the holders of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander land.
A brief history of hemp
Hemp has been in cultivation for thousands of years, most notably for ropes for naval
vessels and for paper. In the mid 1930’s there was the invention of nylon and the spread of plastics, and a general trend away from all things natural. At the same time use of marijuana as a recreational drug increased and hemp was included in the ban on cultivation of any plant of the Cannabis family. This view spread globally with political pressure from the US and since that time there has been a stigma attached to hemp cultivation.
Governments around the world have realised that this valuable crop is not a threat and have encouraged widespread planting of hemp as a means of absorbing CO2 and have issued carbon credits to farmers growing the crop.
Major producers include Canada, France, and China. In Australia the Department of Primary Industry is encouraging the growth of industrial hemp and is issuing licenses to companies and individuals that meet stringent criteria.
GoodEarth has been through the process and has been awarded a license to grow an
industrial hemp crop by the NSW Department of Primary Industries.
The science behind hemp as a carbon sink
One hectare of industrial hemp can absorb 22 tonnes of CO2 per hectare. It is possible to grow to 2 crops per year (2 in Australia; 3 crops per year in Colombia) so absorption is doubled (tripled in Colombia). Hemp's rapid growth (grows to 4 metres in 100 days) makes it one of the fastest CO2-to-biomass conversion tools available, more efficient than agro-forestry.
Biomass is produced by the photosynthetic conversion of atmospheric carbon. The carbon uptake of hemp can be accurately validated annually by calculations derived from dry weight yield. This yield is checked at the weighbridge for commercial reasons prior to processing.
Highly accurate figures for total biomass yield and carbon uptake can then be made, giving a level of certainty not available through any other natural carbon absorption process.
The following carbon uptake estimates are calculated by the examining the carbon content of the molecules that make up the fibres of the hemp stem. Industrial hemp stem consists primarily of Cellulose, Hemicellulose and Lignin, whose chemical structure, carbon content, (and therefore absorbed CO2).
$OWPC Great post, sello! I'm hoping to put a spreadsheet together with some calcs for a real-world scenario using what I/we believe represents Isiah's plan for the business - using a range of possible values for revenue / acres or hectares / lbs or kg / oz or liters or gallons / carbon credits, etc.
Does anyone recall exactly where it was that (I believe) Isiah explained that he envisions marketing the acres/hectares of hemp farming like "futures," where companies that want carbon credits would buy into the hemp growing space, being guaranteed a price for the offsets/credits? I'm thinking it may have been the recent interview video from the Colombian media outlet, but I will need to look back and dig unless someone who knows off-hand can point me in the right direction.
$OWPC Great find, thanks for posting that article. Everything about One World Products is growing and accelerating from all angles - supply/capacity capability, market/demand, development and number of revenue streams, leadership/management, contacts & network... pretty amazing setup.
Really looking forward to the coming gains on this investment - on the part of the company, as well as my personal holdings - as investors begin noticing!
Right. And while you're thinking about some of those possible scenarios, don't forget to think about what it would take to see 10x and 100x gains in the share price. Here we are sitting with a $7M market cap right now - mainly because we haven't begun to show the revenue. Now... what would it take to move to a $70M market cap? And to a $700M market cap?
I'm pretty much skipping over those what-ifs, and looking toward... what sort of milestones do I want to see that will point to a $7B market cap within the next 5-10 years? Funny, right? 1000x from here? But you have to start somewhere, and do most things right, in order to get there. Well, I have to say that I really like what I'm seeing. And it's better for me to be in here long like I've been since February 2021, at this early stage, improving my position and cost average monthly, than to wait until I see "proof" of 10's of millions in revenue piling up. Today, as well as last month and a year ago, offer much better (lower) prices than we'll see when we have that "proof" of success (which, I believe, is just around the corner now).
Who is "we"? I thought you said you dumped your position. But yeah, let us investors currently holding positions face it... "friends." lol
You guys kill me.
A product of litigation, imo. These folks are hired by the company to do their job. When it comes to 'risk,' they have to do what they have to do - disseminate the information that they must disclose, but nothing more, in order to avoid the kind of lawsuits that we see frequently fueled by ambulance-chasing parasites.
No. But this is easy. He just bought the dip.
There are many resources out there for learning about this, but here's one, for example.

Excerpt:
$OWPC Oh yeah, LOVE to see this! I knew it was only a matter of time til they came right with the awesome fact that the carbon credits alone are going to be absolutely HUGE for OWPC! And... when you add the carbon credits to the automotive supply chain revenue for hemp plastic AND the premium oils extracted before the hemp fiber gets processed for plastics, hemp-crete and other industrial uses... I'm anticipating a grand slam. (Sorry, I know that's not B-ball speak, Isiah lol)
And then don't forget the last part of that, where he says we're pursuing even MORE land to bring under/within OWPC's control!
I think real movement is right around the corner.
$OWPC Yes, Isiah has big plans for One World Products, and he's put his money ($3M equity investment) behind it - as well as loans, prior to the equity investment - and now a lot more of his time on the hemp plastic business dev as well as the oil extraction facility and business plans.
I think most who are already aware of what's happening with OWPC, including yourself, are not surprised at all to see our CEO Isiah Thomas meeting with Colombia's President. But there's a whole world of investors out there that is just beginning to hear about OWPC as Isiah is clearly in the early stage of a PR & awareness campaign. For us and for other early investors, it's going to be interesting and quite fun to watch as awareness and interest grows. First, more awareness to create interest; Second, NEWS to touch off investment and stock buying interest - from accredited investors, industry suppliers and manufacturers, strategic partners/customers, as well as a much larger pool of retail investors looking for revenue and growth numbers to get behind.
And you KNOW Isiah didn't pull the trigger on further automotive product & supply chain dev expense until he was ready to launch the business - he's been very careful to protect shareholder value, minimizing expenses and avoiding dilution. So why hire 3 seasoned automotive industry consultants now?
I did check with IR btw, regarding "...the Addition of Significant Automotive Industry Executive Talent," and the email reply was:
$HDUP I'm just trying to follow along here, have been watching and accumulating a starter position. That being the case, I cannot be real sure of all details that have been made public. But doesn't it make sense that much of what is being acquired in several cases, would be licensing, permitting and other compliance requirements, as well as local expertise and influencers.
I don't think the company is suggesting in any way that the acquisition was for this original concept game, but rather for market access and possibly expertise. The tweet was to show the company now has an office in Abu Dhabi: "Pics from the new $HDUP HeadsUp Ventures offices in Abu Dhabi!"
- AND -
"This is also the Operational HQ of the new African Lottery in progress..."
- AND, you CANNOT IGNORE the clear statement that... -
"...plus the soon to be announced "Drawing Game" with many more details to follow."
So, I think you answered your own question ('Is that the new product on the back wall www.beatmyteam.com'): No, www.beatmyteam.com was a concept release back in 2018. The new product soon to be announced is "Drawing Game." (that is either the formal name or a description of the new game, we will know for sure when it is announced).
$OWPC Isiah is certainly much more active in recent weeks with One World Products' Hemp is the New Plastic™ automotive supply chain awareness campaign. Here's another short video/tweet that I missed - MSNBC:
#SUSTAINABILITYALERT @IsiahThomas talks sustainability! He tells @SymoneDSanders about his hemp plastics and carbon capture business venture in Colombia called ‘One World Products’. Watch: pic.twitter.com/yepYXGi0Po

Yes, we will.
$OWPC We're rounding the corner here. Many will soon be wishing they were paying attention in early May 2022... could've had a helluva position in the 0.075 to 0.15 range!
