The Placement was led by Franklin Templeton which has acquired an initial ~3.8% interest in Barton’s expanded equity capital structure following completion. Barton also welcomes Donald Smith Value Fund, L.P. and other new institutions to its share register, and thanks its existing North American investors for their further support.

The Company notes that the Company’s last SPP, opened on Tuesday, 9 April 2024 was heavily oversubscribed and closed early after only one week.² Interested Eligible Shareholders are therefore encouraged to apply as soon as possible following the opening of the SPP.

To apply for SPP Shares, you must make payment directly by BPAY using the unique reference number shown on your personalised application form. You can obtain a copy of your personalised application form online – prior to receipt of materials posted by mail – with your Securityholder Reference Number (SRN) or Holder Identification Number (HIN).

We thank our new and existing institutional shareholders for their support as we enter the next phase of our corporate evolution, targeting ‘Stage 1′ commissioning by the end of 2026. We have an exciting journey ahead in South Australia as we lead the re-establishment of the Gawler Craton’s gold district.

“Barton is very well capitalised to pursue its objectives. The SPP is an opportunity for all other eligible shareholders to extend their participation in Barton’s story.”

ST. GEORGE’S, NEWFOUNDLAND AND LABRADOR / ACCESS Newswire / October 21, 2025 / Atlas Salt Inc. (“Atlas Salt” or the “Company”) (TSXV:SALT)(OTCQB:REMRF)(FRA:9D00) announces that it has closed its brokered private placement financing (the “Offering“) previously announced on October 14, 2025, raising gross proceeds of $8,704,400. Under the Offering, 10,880,500 common shares of the Company (“Common Shares“) at a price of $0.80 per Common Share (the “Offering Price“) were issued pursuant to National Instrument 45-106 Prospectus Exemptions (“NI 45-106“) in accordance with Part 5A of NI 45-106, as amended by the Canadian Securities Administrators’ Coordinated Blanket Order 45-935 Exemptions from Certain Conditions of the Listed Issuer Financing Exemption (the “Listed Issuer Financing Exemption“). The Common Shares offered under the Listed Issuer Financing Exemption are not subject to a hold period in accordance with applicable Canadian securities laws.

Participants in the Offering included a strategic investor with whom the Company is excited to build and strengthen its relationship. This investor’s interest in the Company and its flagship Great Atlantic Salt Project aligns with its long-term strategic objectives.

Nolan Peterson, CEO of Atlas Salt, commented: “The commitment and interest of both new and existing shareholders underscores the strength of the results of our recent Updated Feasibility Study, which demonstrated improved project economics and cash flow potential at Great Atlantic, in conjunction with significant de-risking. The participation of this strategic investor marks a major milestone for the Company and further reinforces our confidence in the direction we are taking with the Great Atlantic Salt Project. The rapid and positive response to the Updated Feasibility Study, the resulting market interest and the rapid closing of this financing have provided us with a timely opportunity to advance our early works program. Collectively, these developments position Atlas Salt as an increasingly attractive investment opportunity.”

The Offering was conducted pursuant to the terms of an agency agreement entered into among the Company and Raymond James Ltd., as co-lead agent and joint bookrunner, and Ventum Financial Corp., as co-lead agent and joint bookrunner, on behalf of a syndicate of agents, including Desjardins Capital Markets (collectively, the “Agents“). As consideration for their services, the Company has paid the Agents an aggregate cash fee totaling $522,264. The Company also issued to the Agents an aggregate of 652,830 compensation warrants (each, a “Compensation Warrant“), with each Compensation Warrant entitling the holder thereof to acquire one Common Share at the Offering Price for a period of 24 months from the closing date of the Offering.

The net proceeds received from the Offering will be used for civil engineering work related to advancing the Great Atlantic Salt Project towards development and for general corporate and working capital purposes, as further described in the offering document in connection with the Offering, which can be accessed under the Company’s profile at www.sedarplus.ca and on the Company’s website at www.atlassalt.com.

As previously disclosed, certain insiders of the Company participated in the Offering, and such participation by insiders constitutes a related party transaction as defined in Multilateral Instrument 61-101 Protection of Minority Security Holders in Special Transactions (“MI 61-101“). The Company is relying on exemptions from the formal valuation and minority shareholder requirements provided under sections 5.5(a) and 5.7(1)(a) of MI 61-101 on the basis that neither the fair market value of the securities issued under the Offering nor the consideration paid by insiders of the Company exceed 25% of the Company’s market capitalization.

The securities offered have not been registered under the U.S. Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and may not be offered or sold in the United States absent registration or an applicable exemption from the registration requirements. This press release shall not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy nor shall there be any sale of the securities in any State in which such offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful.

The Board of Directors Urges Shareholders to Vote by October 31, 2025 at 11:59 p.m., Central Time on Proxy Proposals

ISS Recommends Shareholders Vote “FOR” on all Proposals

FRISCO, TEXAS / ACCESS Newswire / October 21, 2025 / GameSquare Holdings, Inc. (“GameSquare” or the “Company”) announced that it has rescheduled its Annual Meeting of Shareholders (the “Annual Meeting”) until November 4, 2025. The Annual Meeting was adjourned to provide shareholders with additional time to vote.

Institutional Shareholder Services (ISS), an industry leading independent proxy advisory firm, has recommended that GameSquare’s shareholders vote “FOR” the Company’s four proposals, including approval of the merger agreement with the Company’s wholly owned subsidiary for the purpose of restating the Certificate of Incorporation to, among other things, increase the number of authorized shares, eliminate supermajority voting requirements to amend the Certificate of Incorporation, declassify the Board of Directors, and implement other non-material specified changes.

Insiders and major shareholders, including the Jones and Goff families, members of management and board, Ryan Zurrer and Robert Leshner, have all voted in favor of the Company’s proposals, demonstrating their continued confidence in the Company’s strategy and long-term potential.

YOUR VOTE IS IMPORTANT NO MATTER HOW MANY SHARES YOU HOLD.

FOR ASSISTANCE WITH VOTING CONTACT Laurel Hill Advisory Group at 1-888.742.1305, or International at +1-416-304-0211, or email Jdepinto@laurelhill.com.

“We’ve received strong support from many of our shareholders, as well as ISS, widely recognized as the industry’s leading independent proxy advisory firm. This underscores the strong merit of our proposals and the value they bring to shareholders,” said Justin Kenna, CEO of GameSquare.

“A number of shareholders have already voted in favor of GameSquare’s proposals, but we need more shareholders to vote. The proposals are designed to position GameSquare for continued growth and value creation as we execute our vision for the future. Every vote matters, and I encourage all shareholders to take a few minutes to vote their shares today and make their voice heard,” Kenna concluded.

Shareholders of record as of September 5, 2025, are advised to vote their shares well in advance of the proxy voting deadline of 11:59 p.m. CT, on October 31, 2025.

THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS RECOMMENDS THAT SHAREHOLDERS VOTE FOR ALL DIRECTOR NOMINEES AND PROPOSED RESOLUTIONS.

Key Proxy Proposal: Technical Statutory Merger
The primary proposal this year is the approval of a statutory merger with a wholly owned subsidiary. GameSquare will remain the surviving entity. This is a technical reorganization only and not a new merger or acquisition. The purpose of the merger is to adopt a restated set of articles of incorporation.

Approval of this proposal will allow GameSquare to:

• Modernize and simplify its governing documents

• Provide flexibility to support future growth and capital markets initiatives

• Align its governance framework with current best practices

Other Proxy Proposals
In addition to the statutory merger, shareholders are being asked to consider:

• Election of Directors with the expertise to provide strong oversight and leadership

• Ratification of Independent Auditors to reinforce confidence in GameSquare’s financial reporting

• Equity and Governance Matters that support attracting and retaining talent, aligning management incentives with shareholders, and strengthening corporate governance

Your Vote Matters
Every shareholder’s vote is important, regardless of the number of shares owned. Shareholders are strongly encouraged to vote as soon as possible online, by telephone, or by mailing their proxy card, as outlined in the proxy materials.

Shareholders who have any questions or require assistance with voting may contact the Company’s proxy solicitation agent and shareholder communications advisor:

NEW YORK, NY / ACCESS Newswire / October 21, 2025 / At Utah’s White Mesa Mill, the air hums with acid and ambition. Massive sacks of monazite ore-each heavier than a car-sit in tight formation like munitions for an unseen war. Inside lies the lifeblood of modern civilization: rare-earth elements that power fighter jets, smartphones, wind turbines, and EVs alike.

This is no ordinary mine scene. It’s the front line of a conflict where proof, not politics, defines control. And quietly in the background, SMX (NASDAQ:SMX) may hold the key. Its molecular-marking technology could become the long-missing infrastructure for a supply chain that has forgotten how to verify its own story.

Because here’s the uncomfortable truth: those raw materials may be strategic, but their origins remain opaque. Every ton refined could be clean-or compromised. No one can say for sure, because trust still moves faster than evidence.

A Paper Trail Built on Faith

For decades, trade has relied on signatures, stamps, and assumptions. Shipments crossed oceans on the strength of paperwork alone. Governments, corporations, and lenders alike accepted it as gospel, even when no one could confirm what was actually inside. The global supply chain evolved into a storytelling exercise rather than a system of record.

That fiction had consequences. The United States once dominated rare-earth production but ceded its lead through deregulation and complacency. According to CSIS.org, China now mines roughly 70% of global rare earths and controls about 90% of the refining capacity. While Beijing built foundries and chemical plants, much of the West built spreadsheets. Margins trumped sovereignty, and transparency was traded for throughput.

The result? Materials that can be relabeled, blended, or laundered across continents with near-zero accountability. When trade tensions finally exposed those cracks, the illusion of verified supply collapsed.

Finance Finally Follows the Proof

Even Wall Street sees it coming. JPMorgan Chase has pledged up to $10 billion to strengthen industries tied to U.S. national security-from defense to critical minerals. CEO Jamie Dimon framed it as patriotic duty, but make no mistake, it’s a response to risk.

When the world’s biggest bank begins funding supply-chain resilience, it signals a deeper problem: the old math no longer works. Dimon’s message was clear-the United States depends too heavily on unreliable foreign inputs. Translation, the trust premium has expired. Proof now determines creditworthiness.

That’s where SMX steps in. The company’s molecular-marker technology embeds unique chemical signatures directly into materials-rubber, gold, timber, plastics, even rare earths. Each tag functions as a digital passport, tracking origin, movement, and transformation in real time.

If the monazite feedstock at White Mesa carried SMX’s invisible ID, every batch could be traced from mine to magnet. Counterfeiting would collapse, substitution would fail, and smuggling would meet chemistry instead of customs.

This isn’t block-chain hype or software gloss. It’s physical verification at the atomic level-chemistry turned into compliance.

And unlike geopolitical alliances, it doesn’t choose sides. Proof isn’t partisan; it’s structural. It converts belief into measurable truth.

Closing the World’s Costliest Blind Spot

Governments are pouring billions into mining, refining, and recycling rare earths, yet the same flaw persists: an unverified supply chain. That’s the blind spot SMX was designed to close.

By linking the physical world to an immutable digital record, SMX gives every nation, company, and consumer a shared standard of authenticity. Its system already operates commercially across metals, minerals, textiles, and luxury goods-and is now scaling toward the critical-materials sector that underpins clean energy and defense manufacturing.

The payoff is enormous: trade based on verified origin rather than ideology. That neutrality makes SMX’s technology as diplomatic as it is industrial.

Proof Isn’t Optional Anymore

At Energy Fuels’ White Mesa Mill, optimism is high. New refineries, new magnet plants, and new rhetoric about resource independence keep the headlines busy. But without verification, it’s optimism on paper. The same paperwork that broke the system can’t rebuild it.

JPMorgan’s $10 billion isn’t celebration money-it’s an early-warning system. Because the next crisis may not start with bombs or markets, but with misinformation about the materials that keep them running.

SMX’s solution is already here: a molecular truth layer for a post-trust world. It doesn’t just store data-it embeds honesty into matter itself. Proof isn’t patriotic. Proof is survival. And the time to build that firewall is now.

About SMX

As global businesses face new and complex challenges relating to carbon neutrality and meeting new governmental and regional regulations and standards, SMX is able to offer players along the value chain access to its marking, tracking, measuring and digital platform technology to transition more successfully to a low-carbon economy.

Forward-Looking Statements

The information in this press release includes “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, statements regarding expectations, hopes, beliefs, intentions or strategies regarding the future. In addition, any statements that refer to projections, forecasts or other characterizations of future events or circumstances, including any underlying assumptions, are forward-looking statements. The words “anticipate,” “believe,” “contemplate,” “continue,” “could,” “estimate,” “expect,” “forecast,” “intends,” “may,” “will,” “might,” “plan,” “possible,” “potential,” “predict,” “project,” “should,” “would” and similar expressions may identify forward-looking statements, but the absence of these words does not mean that a statement is not forward-looking. Forward-looking statements in this press release may include, for example: matters relating to the Company’s fight against abusive and possibly illegal trading tactics against the Company’s stock; successful launch and implementation of SMX’s joint projects with manufacturers and other supply chain participants of gold, steel, rubber and other materials; changes in SMX’s strategy, future operations, financial position, estimated revenues and losses, projected costs, prospects and plans; SMX’s ability to develop and launch new products and services, including its planned Plastic Cycle Token; SMX’s ability to successfully and efficiently integrate future expansion plans and opportunities; SMX’s ability to grow its business in a cost-effective manner; SMX’s product development timeline and estimated research and development costs; the implementation, market acceptance and success of SMX’s business model; developments and projections relating to SMX’s competitors and industry; and SMX’s approach and goals with respect to technology. These forward-looking statements are based on information available as of the date of this press release, and current expectations, forecasts and assumptions, and involve a number of judgments, risks and uncertainties. Accordingly, forward-looking statements should not be relied upon as representing views as of any subsequent date, and no obligation is undertaken to update forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances after the date they were made, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as may be required under applicable securities laws. As a result of a number of known and unknown risks and uncertainties, actual results or performance may be materially different from those expressed or implied by these forward-looking statements. Some factors that could cause actual results to differ include: the ability to maintain the listing of the Company’s shares on Nasdaq; changes in applicable laws or regulations; any lingering effects of the COVID-19 pandemic on SMX’s business; the ability to implement business plans, forecasts, and other expectations, and identify and realize additional opportunities; the risk of downturns and the possibility of rapid change in the highly competitive industry in which SMX operates; the risk that SMX and its current and future collaborators are unable to successfully develop and commercialize SMX’s products or services, or experience significant delays in doing so; the risk that the Company may never achieve or sustain profitability; the risk that the Company will need to raise additional capital to execute its business plan, which may not be available on acceptable terms or at all; the risk that the Company experiences difficulties in managing its growth and expanding operations; the risk that third-party suppliers and manufacturers are not able to fully and timely meet their obligations; the risk that SMX is unable to secure or protect its intellectual property; the possibility that SMX may be adversely affected by other economic, business, and/or competitive factors; and other risks and uncertainties described in SMX’s filings from time to time with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

JACKSONVILLE, FL / ACCESS Newswire / October 21, 2025 / FRP Holdings, Inc. (NASDAQ:FRPH) announced today that the Company has completed the closing on its Purchase and Sales Agreement to acquire the business operations and development pipeline of Altman Logistics Properties, LLC, an operating platform of BBX Capital. Altman Logistics holds minority interests in a portfolio of institutional-grade industrial assets under various stages of development (including the Company’s industrial developments in Lakeland and Broward County, FL) as well as a contract for the purchase of an industrial land parcel.

Management believes that this acquisition aligns with its growth strategy by:

• Expanding the Company’s capabilities and “bench” by adding an accomplished team of professionals with proven development and transaction expertise and established industry relationships-accelerating the talent growth that would otherwise have taken years to build organically and enhancing the ability to deliver on the ten-year investment and development strategy.

• Much needed additional resources will support the Company’s efforts to execute on existing plan to double NOI over the next five years, furthering our progress to increase FRP’s sum-of-the-parts valuation to over $1 billion upon stabilization of the five-year development pipeline.

• Enhancing deal flow and pipeline projects for both wholly owned and joint venture opportunities.

• Broadening its exposure to high-quality industrial assets in key markets.

• Giving the Company 100% ownership of the Lakeland and Davie projects by acquiring Altman’s 10% and 20% minority interests, respectively, in those projects.

Management expects that the incoming team will be fully integrated into its industrial platform over the next several months. Their market expertise and relationships will be leveraged to: advance acquisitions, manage the Company’s existing development pipeline, and optimize existing stabilized assets. The Company anticipates immediate contributions to sourcing and underwriting activity with minimal disruption to ongoing operations.

Details of the Acquisition

The purchase price was $33.5 million, which included a $10 million reimbursement to Altman for the assignment of a bank account held by a special purpose entity that is the guarantor for approximately $49 million on $121.8 million in construction debt. As a result, the net cash requirement was $23.6 million. At closing, $45.3 million of the $121.8 million in total construction financing had been drawn, resulting in a $5.2 million share of debt attributable to the Company. In addition, the Company expects to record additional liabilities related to employee compensation tied to promote participation upon stabilization and sale of the projects.

The Altman Logistics Properties model consisted of a develop and sell program whereby Altman collected development fees from its joint venture partners and held the right to a promote upon a successful sale of the project at stabilization. With respect to all the projects listed in the table below (other than Lakeland and Davie which the Company will now own 100% and intends to own those projects long-term) the Company intends to continue the Altman Logistics Properties model which the Company estimates will generate a 15-20%+ IRR at the property level prior to any promotes the Company would be entitled to receive. More importantly, the transaction adds a seasoned team of professionals from the Altman Logistics Properties platform onto the Company’s management team, strengthening its capabilities in acquisition, development, disposition and asset management, and advancing the depth, capability, and operational strength to deliver on our ten-year strategy and position the Company for sustained long-term success.

The following table details the projects purchased and the square feet (SF) of the warehouses:

Reform Metrics and Global Outlook Underpin London Gathering

LONDON, UK / ACCESS Newswire / October 22, 2025 / The Sultanate of Oman, represented by the Ministry of Finance in cooperation with the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, held the Oman Investment Forum 2025 in London to deepen financial, investment, and economic cooperation between the two nations. The event underscored the strategic weight of the Oman-UK partnership and the role of the Strategic Advisory Group (SAG), established in 2018 as the institutional mechanism through which the two countries coordinate investment, fiscal reform, and economic-diversification strategy.

Oman enters this year’s forum with one of the strongest fiscal positions in the region. Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) reached USD 78.8 billion by the end of the second quarter of 2025, a 12.8 percent increase compared to 2024. Inflows during the first half of 2025 totalled USD 8.8 billion, reflecting rising international confidence.

Omani officials opened the forum by highlighting progress in stabilizing public finances and diversifying the economy. The government’s fiscal discipline has sharply reduced public debt from 68 percent of GDP in 2020 to 34 percent in 2024, cutting debt-service costs by over 12 percent from peak levels. Nasser Al Jashmi, Chairman of the Tax Authority and Head of the Omani Delegation to the Strategic Advisory Group, presented “Pathways to Oman’s Financial Stability,” outlining key reforms in public finance and debt management that have strengthened the country’s fiscal resilience and global credit standing. He said, “The historical Omani-UK relations stand as a pillar of friendship and shared prosperity. This forum is a testament to the strong and enduring partnership between our two countries within the framework of the Strategic Advisory Group (SAG). The UK is currently the largest foreign investor in the Sultanate’s economy, accounting for 51.2% of total FDI, which emphasizes the importance of this forum in enhancing the growth of investments between the two countries and global investment collaboration.”

H.E. Mahmood Al Aweini, Secretary-General of the Ministry of Finance and Supervisor of the National Program for Fiscal Sustainability and Financial Sector Development (Estidamah), said: “This forum showcases the renewed international confidence in Oman’s economy and financial strength, with the presence of leading financial institutions and investment funds. This event comes after a bold journey of achievements in the public finance reform, which led to milestones in developing its financial system and managed to turn financial challenges into successes. The UK has been and continues to be a key strategic partner in achieving our mutual investment and economic interests. As we are heading into a diversified, competitive, and sustainable future, we look forward to continuing to strengthen this partnership towards the prosperity of both nations.”

He stated that “the public debt-to-GDP ratio fell from 68% in 2020 to 34% in 2024, which reduced debt service costs by more than 12% from their peak levels since 2020.”

In the first panel discussion, H.E. Ahmed Al Musalmi, Governor of the Central Bank of Oman, and H.E. Mahmood Al Aweini discussed “Financing Growth: Reforming Oman’s Financial Sector,” highlighting initiatives to strengthen the financial and banking sector and the role of debt instruments in financing growth.

H.E. Al Musalmi said: “This forum represents a pivotal moment – transforming over two centuries of Omani-British partnership into a structured platform for resilient, diversified growth. Strategically positioned at the crossroads of Asia, the Middle East, and Africa, Oman offers seamless access to over 2.5 billion consumers – powered by world-class ports, free zones, and integrated supply chains. Our shared ambition is clear: scale investable opportunities, strengthen climate and supply-chain resilience, and generate high-quality jobs – positioning Oman as a competitive regional hub and delivering enduring value for both nations.”

Mulham Al Jarf, Deputy President for Investment at the Oman Investment Authority (OIA), participated in a panel on “Advancing Oman’s Capital Markets in a Global Context.” He noted that the OIA has implemented multiple initiatives to expand the Muscat Stock Exchange since assuming ownership in 2021, achieving record growth and trading figures. He added that OIA’s participation in the forum underscores its strategic partnerships, contribution to attracting foreign investment, and its position as a partner of choice for global investors.

The forum, convened at the invitation of Sohar International Bank and HSBC, brought together senior representatives of global investment funds, financial institutions, and private-sector leaders to explore cross-border opportunities and bilateral collaboration. Parallel sessions addressed fiscal innovation, capital-market reform, and public-private investment mechanisms aligned with Oman Vision 2040. The meetings precede the thirteenth session of the Oman-UK Strategic Advisory Group, scheduled from 23 to 24 October in Cardiff, further cementing the long-standing financial and economic partnership between the two countries.

Expands Nationwide to Equip Franchised Dealers with Strategies that Unlock up to 5x Revenue Growth and Future-Proof Business Success

NASHVILLE, TN / ACCESS Newswire / October 21, 2025 / Legacy Growth Partners, a Tennessee-based automotive Finance & Insurance (F&I) sector leader, today announced its official launch to the broader nationwide market. With over 30 years of experience and a dealer-first approach, Legacy Growth Partners empowers franchised car dealerships to unlock new revenue streams, enhance compliance, and secure long-term, sustainable growth.

Unlike emerging alliances and mass-market providers, Legacy Growth Partners offers a tailored structure that puts dealers-not vendors-at the center of revenue creation. The company partners with mid-to-mega-sized franchised dealerships, each selling a minimum of 150 vehicles per month, to build generational wealth and business durability.

Built for Dealers, Proven Over Decades-Legacy Growth Partners Delivers:

Dealer Challenges in Today’s Market

Dealer Principals are under mounting pressure from multiple directions: regulatory scrutiny, dishonest vendors, shrinking margins, inflation, and rogue employees. On top of that, consolidation by mega dealer groups continues to loom, putting the independence of private operators at risk.

Legacy Growth Partners has spent over 30 years in the F&I sector, translating into a deep understanding of these challenges. Our solutions are designed to restore control, protect revenue, and provide dealerships with the strategies needed to stay competitive-even in volatile markets.

A Distinct Advantage

While many new entrants promote “dealer-focused” concepts, Legacy Growth Partners delivers measurable results dealers can bank on. Our model has already returned millions in income opportunities to partners, demonstrating the real strength of a dealer-first structure. Unlike alliances that dilute ownership, Legacy Growth Partners builds sustainable revenue channels that keep dealerships independent, resilient, and positioned for long-term success.

NEW YORK, NY / ACCESS Newswire / October 21, 2025 / Every so often, an idea stops belonging to one company and starts belonging to the world. Proof is that idea – and SMX (NASDAQ:SMX) is the one that made it possible. At the perfect time.

For years, sustainability was siloed: activists spoke to regulators, regulators spoke to corporations, and corporations spoke to investors. The message kept changing languages, losing clarity every time it crossed borders. Then SMX showed up with a universal translator – a way for everyone to speak the same truth, verified by the materials themselves.

The technology doesn’t make sustainability louder; it makes it legible. SMX embeds molecular markers into physical materials – plastics, rubber, textiles, metals, liquids, and electronics – creating a digital fingerprint that remains intact through recycling, reuse, or resale. That’s how circularity becomes continuity.

And the world has noticed.

When Culture, Commerce, and Policy Agree

It started in culture. Rolling Stone captured the moment perfectly when it declared that plastic promises are dead and proof is the new flex – a headline that hit like a manifesto. The magazine that usually calls out rock stars was suddenly naming the next economic movement. Proof wasn’t just a value system; it had become a vibe.

Then commerce followed. USA Today took that cultural cue and gave it numbers, outlining how the global plastics market is worth hundreds of billions and how technologies like SMX’s molecular marking are unlocking traceability where it’s been missing for decades.

Policy was next. The Straits Times in Singapore reported that the country is developing a national digital passport for plastics – one designed to extend landfill life and enforce recycling compliance. The system reads like a blueprint for how SMX’s molecular tech could integrate with national infrastructure. In other words, what was once an innovation is now a model.

The Industrial Validation Layer

Then came the industrial sector – the hard proof of implementation. OPIS, the Dow Jones energy and commodities platform, ran an in-depth interview with SMX leadership detailing how waste digitalization is turning municipal costs into measurable, auditable value. Governments, it turns out, are eager to track progress they can quantify. Corporations, equally eager to avoid accusations of greenwashing, now have a framework that actually verifies what they claim.

At the consumer level, Morning Honey connected the dots in a way only lifestyle media could. It showed how traceability technology – the same molecular tagging SMX uses in recycling – is also reshaping consumer fairness and trade. Transparent supply chains don’t just satisfy environmental regulations; they stabilize prices and reduce tariff risks. The takeaway: transparency isn’t a burden. It’s a buffer.

That’s how the validation loop closes. Not just from top-down policy, but from bottom-up behavior.

From Headlines to Handshakes

This isn’t media coverage for coverage’s sake. It’s confirmation. When outlets on different continents and from different industries all highlight the same company for the same reason, it’s not a press cycle – it’s a market signal.

Culture has named proof as credibility. Commerce has priced it as value. Policy has framed it as enforcement. And now, SMX’s molecular technology connects them all through a shared, verifiable ledger. Proof, it turns out, is the one language every market understands. The Los Angeles Tribune captured the economic evolution with one line that read like a thesis statement: “Carbon Credits Had Their Day.”

And that’s what makes SMX’s role so pivotal. It’s not fighting for attention. It’s providing translation. The company’s markers don’t just create data; they build trust – the most valuable export any country, company, or community can produce.

The loop is complete – from Rolling Stone to USA Today, from The Straits Times to OPIS and Morning Honey. Different audiences, same message: proof isn’t propaganda; it’s the new standard. And SMX is teaching the world not just how to read it, but how to profit from it- environmentally and financially.

About SMX

As global businesses face new and complex challenges relating to carbon neutrality and meeting new governmental and regional regulations and standards, SMX is able to offer players along the value chain access to its marking, tracking, measuring and digital platform technology to transition more successfully to a low-carbon economy.
