Fah Mai Holdings' Jacob Carter provides expert insights on whisky investment

Fah Mai Holdings Group Inc

Fah Mai Holdings Group Inc (OTC:FMHG) UK head and manager of @whiskybullauctions Jacob Carter provides detailed advice for investors in the secondary whisky bottle market in an interview with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion. Carter emphasised the importance of conducting thorough research and developing a personal investment strategy, highlighting rarity and age as key factors in choosing investment bottles. He mentioned significant past investment successes, such as a 1964 Black Bowmore Aston Martin DB5 bottle bought for less than £100 and now valued at about £50,000. Carter advised using resources like Rare Whisky 101 to access data on highly traded bottles and stressed the necessity of understanding market dynamics, which can be influenced by distillery release schedules and other seasonal factors. He also discussed the critical aspects of storage and insurance for investment bottles, suggesting that collectors work with auction houses that provide these services. Authenticity verification, according to Carter, can involve checking cask and bottle numbers or consulting with distilleries directly.

MODERN MARKET EATERY DEBUTS SUSTAINABLE SHRIMP IN ITS NEW SUMMER MENU ROLLOUT

Modern Market Eatery

Modern Market Eatery, the Colorado-based fast casual concept specializing in scratch-made meals using clean ingredients, announced today the addition of sustainable shrimp to the summer menu. The new summer menu rolls out across Modern Market Eatery’s 31 restaurants nationwide today. The shrimp is sourced only from farms certified by the Marine Stewardship Council (MSC), whose work with fisheries, scientists and industry stakeholders ensure oceans are fished sustainably to make it easier for consumers to find and buy certified sustainable seafood. Modern Market Eatery is doing just that for its guests by incorporating only MSC-certified shrimp in its menu items. Modern Market Eatery guests have demonstrated their affinity for seafood as salmon and tuna are among the brand’s best-selling options. After careful sourcing, the summer menu will feature the following sustainable shrimp entrees in addition to the core menu: Shrimp BLT Salad – In Modern Market Eatery’s take on BLT, magical bacon bread crumbs (combination of panko and bacon) join chilled herbed shrimp in its salad made of arugula and spring mix, heirloom cherry tomato and red onion. To top it off, blue cheese and avocado are placed on top of the chilled herb shrimp along with a generous sprinkle of these special bacon breadcrumbs. The dish is finished with a low-fat, basil buttermilk dressing, bringing diners a bright, fresh and delicious summer option for combatting the heat. Green Goddess Shrimp Bowl – Contrary to typical green goddess dressing, Modern Market Eatery’s version is lighter and healthier with its Greek yogurt base and capers’ addition. The dressing is drizzled on top of a bed of organic rice and quinoa, marinated kale, roasted zucchini, watermelon radish, marinated red pepper, goat cheese and the menu’s debut -- chilled herb shrimp to make this bowl the perfect dish to enjoy during the heat of summer. Protein Option – Sustainable shrimp can now be added to any menu item as a protein selection in guests’ customizations. Modern Market Eatery’s emphasis on healthy-sourced proteins has been at its core since the company’s founding 15 years ago. The quality of the proteins, coupled with their versatility, have been offered as freshly sliced-to-order options, and sustainable shrimp will afford diners the same choices. Also debuting on the summer menu is the Sweet Corn Chicken Pizza and a return of a Modern Market Eatery fan favorite, Summer Seared Ahi Tuna Salad. “At Modern Market Eatery, we never cease to innovate. That’s exactly what we did with the debut of sustainable shrimp on our new summer menu. We continue to deliver food our guests enjoy through a healthy, sustainable lens without ever skimping on flavor,” explains Nate Weir, vice president of culinary at Modern Market Eatery. “The new, herbaceous menu items are no exception to our commitment to food standards and our guests’ preferences. Our seafood entrees have continuously been among our top sellers, and the addition of these new shrimp items affords them yet another choice. Our sustainable shrimp offers a lighter, versatile protein that can complement any dish on Modern Market Eatery’s menu, even those where shrimp isn’t the headliner. It pairs well with many of our new and core menu items, and we’re confident our guests will embrace this new protein option,” Weir concludes. About Modern Market Eatery Founded in 2009 in Boulder, Colo., Denver-based Modern Market Eatery continues to prove faster food can be better food by making it easy to access fresh, nourishing and delicious meals. Fresh salads, grain and protein bowls, toasted sandwiches and brick oven pizzas comprise the brand’s scratch-made menu.

Raboo (RABT) Predicted to Skyrocket 100x as Ethereum (ETH) and BNB Whales Flock to Buy

Total Media

The crypto market is finally heating up again after Bitcoin stumbled out of the gates in May, taking the rest of the market—including BNB and Ethereum price—down with it. Ethereum and BNB appear to have turned the corner, hinting at a recovery around the bend. However, investors looking for the next 100x gains are investing in low-cap gems and presale opportunities like Raboo with MAJOR legroom to run in this crypto market cycle. With its presale token price of just $0.0042 and prospects of a legitimate shot at a 100x surge, Raboo is one of the top investment opportunities of the year. BNB continues to have a strong performance BNB has been one of the best performers so far in 2024, with the native token of the Binance Chain ecosystem coming within earshot of retesting its 2021 all-time highs of $686 earlier in Q1 2024. BNB’s current run is nothing short of spectacular after hitting its nadir in late 2023 when a series of setbacks and intensified regulatory pressure saw its prices plummet all the way to $205. Crypto market analysts believe BNB could be in line to once again retest its previous ATH this year—but investors looking for larger gains are looking elsewhere given BNB’s staggering $86.9 billion market cap. Ethereum price back to $3,000 after stumbling out of the blocks in May Ethereum plummeted to $2,800 to start off the month, no doubt bringing ETH holders who bought at higher levels in March and April to a state of apoplexy. That’s not to mention the fact that Ethereum has largely underwhelmed compared to Bitcoin, which has already minted a new all-time high. The Ethereum price action hasn’t come close to retesting its ATH of $4,878 set in 2021, indicating that the Layer-1 blockchain platform is losing serious market share to newer and better contenders. ETH bulls have their work cut out for them if Ethereum has any hope of minting a new ATH in the next crypto market bull cycle. Raboo: AI and SociaFi meme coin thrills presale participants Raboo is fast becoming one of the biggest presale investment opportunities of the crypto market in 2024, raising over $1 million and currently in stage 3 of its presale. Thus far, Raboo has already drawn over 5,200 presale registrants, indicating the massive traction that the AI SocialFi meme coin has generated. Raboo introduces a level of SocialFi utility and AI sophistication never before seen in meme coins by rewarding holders that leverage its meme generation platform to create and distribute memes across internet verticals. In doing so, the Raboo community grows its user base and pumps up demand and prices for its native RABT token. Conclusion Crypto market observers are forecasting anywhere between a 50x to a 100x gain for RABT in 2024 once it launches and lists on major exchanges, making Raboo’s current price of $0.0042 a steal. With its value proposition and low market cap, analysts predict Raboo will easily outperform BNB and Ethereum price actions within the next 12 months. You can participate in the Raboo presale here.

Bitcoin Bull Trap Looms: BTC at Risk, Investors Choose Ondo and Low Cap Crypto Raboo

Total Media

The landscape of low cap crypto is known for its volatility and potential for substantial gains, drawing investors keen on discovering the next big winner. As the market evolves, understanding the dynamics of bull traps—situations where a declining trend appears to reverse but then continues to drop—becomes crucial. In this environment, Raboo emerges as a promising contender. Its recent presale success and unique approach in the meme coin sector offer a refreshing alternative to the typical pitfalls of speculative investments. Bitcoin (BTC): The Gold Standard of Cryptocurrency Bitcoin (BTC), the original cryptocurrency, remains a dominant force in the digital currency market. Known for its decentralized nature and pioneering blockchain technology, Bitcoin has set the standard for security and transparency, influencing countless other cryptocurrencies. As a store of value, often referred to as 'digital gold,' Bitcoin's appeal lies in its scarcity and widespread recognition. However, Bitcoin's position as a high cap crypto also makes Bitcoin susceptible to significant price fluctuations, which can resemble a bull trap scenario where investors might buy during a temporary price increase only to see values drop suddenly. This might drive investors towards more agile and cost-effective low cap crypto alternatives to Bitcoin in the rapidly evolving market. Ondo (ONDO): A Newcomer in Decentralized Finance Ondo Finance offers decentralized finance (DeFi) services that aim to lower the barriers to institutional access to decentralized liquidity pools, fostering a bridge between traditional finance and DeFi. With Ondo's innovative approach, Ondo facilitates a variety of investment strategies that cater to different risk tolerances, aiming to enhance the efficiency and accessibility of crypto investments. Despite these innovations, Ondo, as a low cap crypto, faces considerable risks. The complexities and relatively untested nature of DeFi can lead to significant challenges, including the risk of smart contract vulnerabilities and regulatory uncertainties. Moreover, during volatile market periods, the price of ONDO might experience sudden and sharp declines that could resemble bull trap price actions. Raboo (RABT): Navigating the Waters of Low Cap Crypto Raboo is redefining the low cap crypto landscape with a presale success that swiftly pushed its value to $0.0042, highlighting strong investor confidence. Already garnering over $1 million, Raboo stands out through its innovative integration of AI technology and SocialFi elements, which significantly enhance user engagement and provide financial incentives within its ecosystem. This strategic combination not only entertains but also monetizes user participation through creative meme creation. Raboo's approach sets it apart as a significant contender in the evolving crypto market, aiming to attract a broader audience with its unique blend of technology and community-driven incentives, promising a new era of digital interaction and economic opportunity. Raboo as a Solid Bet Amidst Low Cap Crypto In a market rife with uncertainty and the ever-present risk of bull traps, Raboo demonstrates robust market confidence and establishes itself as a leading investment in the low cap crypto category. Unlike many fleeting trends susceptible to sudden downturns, Raboo's integration of AI with SocialFi dynamics presents a sustainable growth model. This makes Raboo the preferred choice for investors looking to capitalize on innovative cryptocurrencies with tangible community engagement and real-world utility, positioning it as a top contender for enduring value. You can participate in the Raboo presale here. Contact Details Total Media Solutions media@Totalsolutionspr.io
