Everyone wants to make it in the crypto space by finding those undervalued Altcoins.
Coins that have the technicals, the partnerships, the use cases which should put them in the
top 100.
Although many of these coins have unfairly fallen down the rankings, while a sea of Meme
based crapola floated to the top!
Well this is about to change...the tide isn’t on the side of fake, but the REAL...kind of
like this channel.
Because it’s time for Chico Crypto!!
So to begin….Fortunately, a majority of the MEME shatcoins have fallen out of the
top 100...but let me tell you there is still a ton of crap up there, which does not belong
and I still consider a meme!
Does Shiba Inu ring a bell??
Does Safemoon Ring a bell?
Does all the Bitcoin forks Ring a bell?
Bitcoin Cash, Bitcoin SV, Bitcoin Gold, and shoot there is even a fork of a bitcoin fork
in the top 100...bitcoin cash abc.
These freaking coins are all in the top 100, and all have marketcaps between 12 billion
dollars to 1 billion dollars.
There are sooooooo many better crypto projects out there, and today we are going to bring
you just that...through a Chico Crypto rabbit hole dive, which will make your head spin
& is even making my head kind of spin.
Because all of this is coming to a head soon, and I think by the end of the year!
So have you ever heard of REBA?
I’m sure many of you are like oh heck yes I have, Reba Mcentire...she turns me on!
That's the night that the lights went out in Georgia!
No I’m not talking about the ginger country music star….even though she turns me on
too
But I’m talking about the other REBA….the Renewable Energy Buyers Alliance.
According to their website and missionREBA is an alliance of large clean energy buyers,
energy providers, and service providers that, together with NGO partners, are unlocking
the marketplace for all nonresidential energy buyers to lead a rapid transition to a cleaner,
prosperous, zero-carbon energy future.
Now the alliance is the corporate renewable and clean energy force within the US...and
it was only created in 2018, but REBA as a force was actually created in 2014 with the
REBA tracker, which was created in 2014, to measure market growth and track US Based Corporate
Energy Deals and announcements.
As we can see from the REBA tracker today, as of 2020 total capacity of renewables across
the corporations involved was 10.60 Gigawatts.
And businesswire put out an article in February of this year, where REBA announced who made
up the largest share of this, the top 10...and it included the likes of Amazon, Google, Facebook,
General Motors and more…
Now going to the vision piece of REBA’s website, they have the plan to basically 6x
that capacity, by 2025 reaching 60 Gigawatts..Corporates are going to go gungho on Renewables and ramp
it up bigtime... so besides the ones in the businesswier article...who else is Apart of
REBA
So who are the corporates involved with REBA?
Who are the members?
Well as we can see about every big name you can think of.
In the Buyers section….7 eleven, Accenture, Adobe, Amazon, Argo Blockchain, AT&T, Bestbuy,
Bloomberg, Boeing, Bristol-Myers, Capital One, Chanel, Coca Cola, Ebay, Facebook, Google,
H&M, Hewlett Packard, Honda, HP, IBM, Intel, Johnson & Johnson, LG, Lowes, Marriott, Mars,
McDonalds, Microsoft, Nestle, Nike, Pepsico, PWC, Ralph Lauren, Salesforce, Samsung..Starbucks,
Target, Walt Disney, Walmart...Yum Brands….and so many more...literally Everybody….It’s
the largest, and the deepest pocket association of Energy Buyers out there…
That’s just the buyers though.
They buy from the Energy and Service Providers.
Energy proviers include AES, Blackrock, ConEdison, Duke Energy, EDF, Engie, and others….in
service providers, 3Degrees, Bank of America, BP, EDF, Edison, Ernst & Young, Goldman Sachs,
SHell, Tenaska, and so many others too…
Obviously from this membership...REBA is no joke.
They are not letting them lights go out in Georgia!
So how does this connect back to blockchain and cryptocurrency?
The only blockchain and crypto company within REBA I could identify was ARGO blockchain.
Argo is just a crypto mining company, no cryptocurrency perse….Well luckily Argo leads us to the
connection...going to Argo blockchains website and section on their climate strategy, and
scrolling down to Initiaitves and Partnerships, we can see that yes they are apart of REBA...but
also the Crypto Climate Accord!
Yes, the Accord we all know, whose goal is to turn crypto green through, and promote
sustainable initiatives and technology throughout the crypto space.
It was founded by the Energy Web, Rocky Mountain Institute, and AIR (The Alliance for Innovative
Regulation).
There is our crypto company…..the Energy Web Chain...
Now let’s switch to the members of the CCA, Energy Web’s partner ecosystem..and compare
it with the members of REBA
THE CCA and REBA of course both include Argo, but also Engie, 3Degress, and EDF.
And then Energy Web’s Ecosystem and REBA both include: 3Degrees, AES, Duke Energy,
EDF, Engie, Shell, Tenaska...and I’m sure I might have missed a few...that was a lot
to go through.
But there are many, many of the same corporates in all 3.
Now some of you would be like, but Tyler...this does not mean Energy Web is a part of REBA,
or involved with any of REBA’s activities.
This is just a coincidence, a quinkie dinky!
You're making connections that just aren’t there…
Oh REALLY!?
Well let’s just let me loose, and I’m going to ROAR... like an uncaged TIGER!
So, in December of last year...just before we crossed into the this year, Energy Web
posted this article titled “Energy Web Awarded Good Energies Foundation Grant for New Global
Renewables Marketplace” and in the article it states “They were awarded the grant to
commercialize EW Zero, a digital, open-source, global market hub for renewable energy.
EW Zero provides a single digital entry point for renewable energy buyers — from multinational
corporations to small- and medium-sized enterprises — to discover and purchase renewable energy
that meets their financial, sustainability, and corporate social responsibility requirements.
“This funding makes it possible for EW Zero to connect local renewables marketplaces together
in a single digital hub, much like Google Flights or Skyscanner does for air travel,
and make it easier for renewable energy buyers to achieve their specific goals for renewables
procurement.”
Energy Buyers, corporates...Hmmm like the energy Buyers and Big corporates that are
part of REBA?
And then also they talk about Renewables procurement, just like REBA has a full on sections with
their website about this?
Well down below in the article it also says “The Renewable Energy Buyers Alliance (REBA),
RE-Source Platform, International REC Standard Foundation, and EKOenergy have all agreed
to serve as EW Zero Advisors to provide input that guides Energy Web’s development of
EW Zero over the next year….
Oh REBA is an advisor to EW-ZERO?
That is connected wouldn’t you say?
Well we can confirm this by going to the Energy Web EW-Zero landing page, and seeing that
REBA is still listed to this day as an advisor!
Although the connections to REBA and the energy buyer corporations of REBA are deeper than
just advising!
Going back to REBA’s website and vision page, they have a history section and it says
“ The idea goes back to 2013, when the first meeting of a small group of energy buyers
was convened by the World Wildlife Fund (WWF) to discuss how to leverage clean energy demand
towards tackling market barriers and accelerating the uptake of renewables with partner NGOS:
BSR (formerly the Business for Social Responsibility), the Rocky Mountain Institute, and the World
Resources Institute.”
The Rocky Mountain Institute is one of the original and key players of REBA….the same
Rocky Mountain Institute, the founded the Crypto Climate Accord with Energy Web...the
Same Rocky Mountain Institute who helped launch the Energy Web Chain, in collaboration with
energy corporates, and Grid Singularity back in 2017!
But again it’s more than this...and we get it all from an energy web chain team members
Linked’n.
This is from Ian Kelly, Head of Digital Solutions for DER integration...as we can see Ian Worked
for Rocky Mountain beginning in 2016 and he says“Until May 2018, he led product strategy
and development for RMI's Business Renewables Center (BRC; now REBA)...
Their BRC, Rocky Mountain’s Business Renewables Center is now REBA….Energy Web is about
as close to these corporations as it gets!
Sooo...Energy Web, out of the top 100, actually out of the top 150...as of yesterday it was
rank #160….ummm can you say ridiculous!?
But hey, they say be greedy when others are fearful, and fearful when others are greedy.
Cheers I’ll see you next time!
