By

CORAL GABLES, Fla., Nov. 7, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — NatGold Digital Ltd. (“NatGold” or the “Company”) today announced that it has requested the delisting of the NatGold Token (NATG) from MEXC, a global cryptocurrency exchange where NATG is currently listed, with immediate effect.

The decision follows the U.S. Department of the Treasury’s announcement of an order issued by its Financial Crimes Enforcement Network (FinCEN) under the Combating Russian Money Laundering Act, prohibiting U.S. financial institutions from processing funds transfers involving MEXC Global.

NatGold is a U.S. company whose wholly owned subsidiary, NatGold Integrity Vault LLC, is registered with FinCEN as a money services business. The Company is acting ahead of the order’s effective date.

“As a U.S. company operating through a FinCEN-registered money services business, we are acting immediately in response to Treasury’s decision,” said Mark Radke, Executive Chairman of NatGold Digital. “Trust is a cornerstone of NatGold’s operating structure, and responding promptly to this regulatory action reflects that commitment.”

NatGold is in advanced discussions with multiple regulatory-compliant exchanges and venues  serving global markets, including the United States, and intends to replace MEXC as soon as possible. Once new listings are confirmed, NATG token holders will be advised of the arrangements and encouraged to register accounts and link their wallets, as applicable, to continue trading.

What to Look for in an Online GLP-1 Provider: Meant Outlines Five Questions Worth Asking Before Signing Up

Published

on

By

MANASSAS, Va., Nov. 7, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — As more telehealth companies offer GLP-1 care, the options can look alike from the outside, and telling them apart takes more than a glance at a landing page. Meant is sharing five questions consumers can ask when choosing an online GLP-1 provider, along with how it approaches each one.

Five Questions Worth Asking

Who makes the clinical decisions? A trustworthy provider should be clear about which licensed clinicians review each person’s information. At Meant, those decisions are made by licensed providers through its clinical partner, OpenLoop Health.Is there a real evaluation first? Look for a health-history review before anything is prescribed, and for plain language that a prescription is never guaranteed. Meant’s online assessment covers health history, current medications, and goals.Can the company’s credentials be checked? Independent certifications are one signal consumers can verify for themselves. Meant displays the seal for its LegitScript certification on its website.Is it clear who fills prescriptions? Providers should be open about the pharmacies they work with and whether those pharmacies are licensed in the United States.Is ongoing support spelled out, limits included? Good providers explain what follow-up looks like and who handles which questions. Meant pairs care with an optional Care Coach, and medical questions go to the care team.

A certification is a transparency signal, not a government approval or a promise about results, and no checklist replaces a conversation with a licensed clinician. Meant does not diagnose or prescribe, and treatment is not guaranteed for every applicant.

Take a Closer Look

Consumers who want to see how the assessment, clinical oversight, and coaching fit together can visit Meant‘s website and compare the details against the questions above.

About Meant

Meant is a health and wellness technology company focused on personalized GLP-1 weight-care support delivered through telehealth. The platform combines an online clinical assessment, licensed oversight through OpenLoop Health, Care Coach support, and supplemental wellness resources. Meant does not itself diagnose or prescribe; clinical decisions are made by its clinical partners. Learn more at meant.health.

HUANGSHAN, China, Nov. 7, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — A news report from Crionline.

Spanning summer and autumn across three successive photography tours, the “Picturesque Anhui • Imaging Anhui” 2026 Anhui Photography Season officially wrapped up on November 4. Co-hosted by the Fédération Internationale de l’Art Photographique (FIAP), the Anhui Provincial Department of Culture and Tourism, and the Foreign Affairs Office of Anhui Provincial People’s Government, the event drew 116 photographers from 38 countries and regions. They visited 46 distinctive cultural and tourism attractions across five cities: Hefei, Chizhou, Anqing, Huangshan and Xuancheng. Through their lenses, they presented Anhui’s landscapes, cultural heritage and vibrant everyday life to the world.

Looking back on the three sessions: The first session kicked off in Hefei. Photographers documented the city’s innovation-driven urban landscape as well as the picturesque scenery and intangible cultural heritage of Chizhou’s ancient villages. The second session took them deep into Huangshan and Anqing. They explored time-honored Huizhou villages, magnificent mountains and Huangmei Opera culture, immersing themselves in Huizhou traditions and the cultural charm of the Yangtze River region in western Anhui. The concluding third session was held in Huangshan and Xuancheng, focusing on brilliant autumn hues, Huizhou‑style ancient architecture, and the traditional craftsmanship behind the Four Treasures of the Study.

From lush summer greens to rich autumn colours, the photographers produced more than 11,000 high‑resolution photographs. Reflecting the unique perspectives of international participants, these images will be disseminated globally in diverse forms. They will help tell compelling stories of Anhui’s cultural tourism and further boost the province’s international profile.
