Bitcoin is the first successful internet money based on peer-to-peer technology; whereby no central bank or authority is involved in the transaction and production of the Bitcoin currency. It was created by an anonymous individual/group under the name, Satoshi Nakamoto. The source code is available publicly as an open source project, anybody can look at it and be part of the developmental process.  Bitcoin is changing the way we see money as we speak. The idea was to produce a means of exchange, independent of any central authority, that could be transferred electronically in a secure, verifiable and immutable way. It is a decentralized peer-to-peer internet currency making mobile payment easy, very low transaction fees, protects your identity, and it works anywhere all the time with no central authority and banks.  Bitcoin is designed to have only 21 million BTC ever created, thus making it a deflationary currency. Bitcoin uses the SHA-256 hashing algorithm with an average transaction confirmation time of 10 minutes. Miners today are mining Bitcoin using ASIC chip dedicated to only mining Bitcoin, and the hash rate has shot up to peta hashes.  Being the first successful online cryptography currency, Bitcoin has inspired other alternative currencies such as Litecoin, Peercoin, Primecoin, and so on.  The cryptocurrency then took off with the innovation of the turing-complete smart contract by Ethereum which led to the development of other amazing projects such as EOS, Tron, and even crypto-collectibles such as CryptoKitties.

Alpha Modus Holdings (AMOD), a retail technology company, announced on Thursday that it has reached a settlement in its in-store technology patent infringement lawsuit against Walgreens Co. (WBA).The terms of the settlement are confidential, and the lawsuit will be dismissed with prejudice, Alpha Modus said. The case was filed in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Texas and involved claims related to Alpha Modus’s U.S. Patent.&nbsp;Retail sentiment on <a href="https://stocktwits.com/symbol/WBA">Walgreens</a> improved to ‘neutral’ from ‘bullish’ territory, with chatter at ‘normal’ levels, according to Stocktwits data. Shares of the company were down marginally on Thursday morning.&nbsp;In February, Alpha Modus filed the patent infringement lawsuit that also alleges willful infringement against Walgreens. The company said Walgreens allegedly willfully infringed on Alpha Modus’s patented AI-driven retail technology, which enhances in-store shopping through data-driven insights, interactive advertising, and consumer engagement tools.&nbsp;Walgreens’ deployment of digital smart screens known as “Cooler Screens” mirrors the innovations protected under Alpha Modus’s patents, necessitating this legal action, Alpha Modus had noted in February.&nbsp;On Thursday, Alpha Modus CEO William Alessi said that the company appreciates the opportunity to amicably resolve this matter in a timely and effective manner. “This outcome reflects our continued commitment to safeguarding the value of our intellectual property while promoting constructive relationships across the retail and technology sectors,” Alessi added.Alpha Modus said it has now resolved multiple enforcement actions as part of its broader intellectual property monetization strategy and continues to pursue licensing and litigation opportunities involving its patented technologies.Walgreens’ stock has gained nearly 31% so far this year and jumped over 21% in the last 12 months.&nbsp;For updates and corrections, email newsroom[at]stocktwits[dot]com.Also See: <a href="https://stocktwits.com/news-articles/markets/equity/instacart-gets-a-wedbush-downgrade-on-rising-pressure-from-amazon-s-same-day-grocery-push/chsSyZ8RdiW">Instacart Gets A Wedbush Downgrade On Rising Pressure from Amazon’s Same-Day Grocery Push, Retail Maintains Its Pessimistic Stance</a>

Alpha Modus Settles Patent Infringement Lawsuit Against Walgreens

Alpha Modus said the terms of the settlement are confidential, and the lawsuit will be dismissed with prejudice.

Walgreens Boots Alliance (WBA) said on Friday that the struggling drug retailer’s shareholders approved its $10 billion buyout by New York-based private equity firm Sycamore Partners Management during a special meeting.<a href="https://stocktwits.com/symbol/WBA">Walgreens stock</a> fell marginally in midday trading. Retail sentiment around the stock improved to ‘neutral’ from the ‘bearish’ territory a day ago, according to data from Stocktwits.According to the preliminary results, about 96% of votes cast at the special meeting by all shareholders voted in favor of the merger agreement proposal, Walgreens added.“With Sycamore’s partnership, we will be better positioned to accelerate our turnaround strategy, further enhance the customer, patient, and team member experience, and become the first choice for pharmacy, retail, and health services. We look forward to closing the transaction and entering this next chapter,” Walgreens CEO Tim Wentworth said.Walgreens has faced weakening demand amid strategic restructuring and shifting consumer habits. Foot traffic declined in late 2024, partly offset by a shift in visits to fewer, more efficient stores, as the company planned to shutter 1,200 locations by 2027. Its healthcare push via VillageMD also underperformed, with an underfilled patient panel.The company’s shareholders are set to receive $11.45 per share in cash upon the completion of the Sycamore transaction. An additional $3 per share in value is expected through the future monetization of the company’s debt and equity holdings in its primary-care businesses, including Village Medical, Summit Health, and CityMD.Walgreens expects to close the transaction in the third or fourth quarter of calendar year 2025, subject to customary closing conditions, including the receipt of required regulatory approvals.For updates and corrections, email newsroom[at]stocktwits[dot]com.Also See:<a href="https://stocktwits.com/news-articles/markets/equity/levi-stock-surges-after-analysts-raise-price-target-on-stock-retail-sentiment-extremely-bullish/ch8cXLQR5ZF">&nbsp;</a><a href="https://stocktwits.com/news-articles/markets/equity/louis-vuitton-uk-reports-cyberattack-resulting-in-customer-data-theft/ch8ch7zR5Zu">Louis Vuitton UK Reports Cyberattack Resulting in Customer Data Theft: Report</a>
