Cutoshi Hits #1 Worldwide And In The USA – The Hype Behind $CUTO’s Explosive Growth

Cutoshi

Cutoshi, a memeFi project in presale, took X by storm yesterday as it went viral and took the number 1 trending spot worldwide and in the USA, for over 8 hours. This hype also spread worldwide, as $CUTO became the trending keyword for all countries. The term DeFi was also trending worldwide yesterday, showing that Cutoshi is proving itself to be one of the hottest decentralized crypto projects around. Meme Appeal Cutoshi is cute and catchy, bringing Lucky Cat energy to the blockchain and people’s digital assets. As crypto booms thanks to new all-time highs for Bitcoin, memecoins continue to dominate the market as the most profitable and engaged-with sector in crypto. And as of today, the meme coin market cap is at $105 billion according to CoinMarketCap, with a 24 hour trading volume of $60 billion. That shows us that a lot of people are trading memes right now. DOGE has been on a tear and has also been trending on X since the US elections, proving the enduring nature of important memecoins. MemeFi Hybrid Approach While DOGE has a first mover advantage as a memecoin, Cutoshi is new and in presale. There is another important difference between the two coins - utility. Dogecoin doesn’t have utility, or at least very little (it's accepted as payment in certain places, according to their website). Cutoshi, on the other hand, does. Cutoshi is currently building a cross-chain DEX to simplify swapping and trading on the blockchain, and a whole ecosystem revolving around the benefits of DeFi. The aim is to introduce people to DeFi and then help them to make the most out of it, and that’s why they are offering a learning academy to help people find out more in a fun way. $CUTO will be used throughout the ecosystem, ensuring that the token has true utility, which is essential for ensuring the price moves in the right direction. Fun And Community Is Key All good crypto projects have a loyal community. Decentralized exchanges like Uniswap and 1inch clearly have a loyal community. Cutoshi is currently engaging their growing community through quests and challenges such as meme-making. And because people love the fun of competition, they have built a leaderboard so that people can spur each other on. These quests accrue points, which will be swapped for $CUTO tokens, airdropped once the coin goes live. This ensures that all early community members are rewarded for their participation and can have more skin in the game. Over 1500 people have taken part in the quests within days of launch. Cutoshi Investors Are Early As anyone who’s taken a look at meme coins like Dogecoin and Shiba Inu knows, the ones who got in early profited the most, with DOGE up by an impressive 435,594% since its launch and SHIB up by an amazing 42,665,342%. Just $10 invested at this time in SHIB would have made a current holder over $4 million dollars! Although returns like this are exceptional, new coins are the way to get huge gains. Cutoshi is currently in presale phase; given the hype around it, it could be the next life-changing coin for wealth generation.

Analysis of Top U.S. Sportsbooks Shows Long College Football Suspension Times When Compared to NFL According to Sports Odds Intelligence Firm Bettormetrics

Bettormetrics

Bettormetrics, a sports odds intelligence firm providing competitive sports odds data and insight to the sports betting industry, today released their latest report, a one-week comparison of suspension times between top operators during week eight of the college football season and week nine NFL games. The analysis found that while operators exhibit short suspensions during NFL games, there are still significant improvements to be made on suspension times during college football games. Suspension is when a sportsbook periodically shuts down betting lines in a sporting event to readjust the odds based on activity within the event, while uptime is the amount of time they are accepting live wagers during the game. Bettormetrics’ analysis found that DraftKings and FanDuel were suspended for the least and second least amount of time during NFL games, respectively, and the two operators flipped when it came to college football – with FanDuel leading the operators that were analyzed. DraftKings, who was previously noted as a market leader in past Bettormetrics’ reports on NBA and NFL season-long suspension times, suffered the biggest drop off during college games when compared to its NFL suspension times. On average, operators' suspension times were 8.7% worse during college games. Hard Rock saw the smallest drop in performance in comparison. “The NFL is clearly the American bettor’s favorite competition so it is only a matter of time before sportsbooks shift their focus to its younger sibling, college football, seeking improvements in suspension, uptime and overall trading performance,” said Sabin Brooks, Bettormetrics’ Chief Revenue Officer. “Those who master suspension in college games will ultimately come out on top. Doing so is a win-win because the bettor will have an improved betting experience meaning they will keep coming back and the operator will be able to bring in more handle, meaning a fly wheel of better product, customer experience and sportsbook profitability.” “While there are challenges with the availability, quality and speed of scouting data for college football, there is clear demand for betting on NCAA football. As such, operators are going to need to find solutions to overcome the tremendous suspension differences between the NFL and college football,” said Robert Urwin, Bettormetrics’ co-founder and CEO. “While we recognize that there are significantly more college games every weekend during football season than NFL, there is work to be done. With an estimated gross gaming revenue of over $800 million coming in during college football season, sportsbook operators will continue to lose out on potential revenue unless suspension times are addressed.” ABOUT BETTORMETRICS Bettormetrics is an innovative company providing competitive sports odds intelligence and insight to the sports betting industry. Bettormetrics’ Trading Analytics Platform is a SAAS product supporting sportsbook trading desks with cutting edge insight and analysis on the entire event life cycle, helping sportsbooks, data suppliers and B2B platforms gain an edge on competitors and ensure no profits are left on the table.

Blackrock Bitcoin ETF Sees Outflow After U.S. Election Results, Tron Integration Causes A Stir As Cutoshi Hits $800K Mark

Cutoshi

Blackrock Bitcoin ETF Sees Outflow After U.S. Election Results, Tron Integration Causes A Stir As Cutoshi Hits $800K Mark The US presidential election race is over, and the atmosphere in the crypto market is one of glee as the market warms up to the news of Donald Trump’s presidency. Bitcoin (BTC), as expected, was one of the first to hit new heights, and the rest of the market followed accordingly. But prior to all that spike in the BTC price, Bitcoin ETFs were on a streak of outflows. Even Tron (TRX) is yet to join the profit train, but Cutoshi (CUTO) is trending among traders. Despite Bitcoin Price Surge, Bitcoin ETFs Dip The US elections were supposed to be a boost to the Bitcoin ETFs, but unlike the Bitcoin price, they were on a dip in the run-up to the election. The iShares Bitcoin Trust led the losses at the start of the week, with $44.2 million in outflows even before election day. BlackRock and ten of the other ETFs posted $116.8 million outflows on election day, led by the Fidelity Wise Origin Bitcoin Fund. It was a rare occurrence for most of the ETFs, especially BlackRock stating only its sixth day of loss since its launch in January. Their fortunes changed with the election results, when the BTC price broke past its $75,000 resistance. The Bitcoin ETFs recorded over a billion dollars in inflows on election day, with BlackRock seeing injections up to $1.1 billion on that day. The next few days will be crucial as the market anticipates further surges in the BTC price. Tron Integrations See Chainlink Oracle Links And ETH-TRX Bridges Tron (TRX) founder Justin Sun announced the introduction of Chainlink's oracle feeds to the Tron blockchain to increase security to its DApps, typically JustLend and JustStable. Both DeFi apps are worth about $6.5 billion on the network. Sun made the statement at the Chainlink SmartsCon event in Hong Kong, of which Tron (TRX) was a silver sponsor. The founder stated that the TRON crypto network was going to join in the Chainlink Scale Program, integrating the oracles to also provide developers with access to reliable oracle services, as well as opportunities for the stablecoins and RWAs locked on the blockchain. For the USDC on Tron (TRX), there are new bridges connecting the network with Ethereum through the TRON-Peg USD coin. The token facilitates smoother stablecoin transfer between both chains, contributing to the growing wave of interoperability that is taking over the DeFi space. The TRON price is currently trading at a weekly 3.59% loss, but the new development on the project could soon drive the TRON price into bullish trends. Cutoshi: Meme Coin Combined With DeFi Utilities Cutoshi’s origin is firmly rooted in meme and DeFi, sporting the lucky charm the Lucky Cat and blockchain principles from Bitcoin (BTC) creator Satoshi Nakamoto's teachings. The Decentralized Exchange platform is an avenue for users, especially the meme enthusiasts on the ecosystem, to access token swap and exchange services without leaving the interface. The traffic and insecurity of current exchanges makes Cutoshi's DEX a great alternatives option for traders. Another standout feature of the Cutoshi (CUTO) project will be its token farming. Users earn tokens by participating in challenges and completing tasks to accumulate points. These points can then be redeemed into CUTO tokens to boost investors' crypto portfolios. The token farming is already live, and more than 1500 users are already actively raking in rewards. The $CUTO token presale has raised over $800,000 so far. This traction doesn’t look like it’s going to slow down anytime soon. CUTO Attracts Massive Investors Inflow Bitcoin (BTC) and TRON (TRX) have experienced contrasting fates recently. The Bitcoin price is touching new highs, and TRX is still deep in bullish waters with TRON’s recent integration. The Cutoshi project is attracting investor interest with its presale and CUTO farming features that let users earn while having fun. The new meme coin could potentially deliver bigger gains than other top meme coins.

Innovation Beverage Group Offers Zero-Alcohol Range As Non-Alcoholic Beverages Market Grows

Benzinga

By Kyle Anthony, Benzinga Society’s tastes and preferences are constantly changing; as such, the most forward-thinking companies strive to anticipate where new preferences may manifest and to be present for interested consumers. In the beverage industry, non-alcoholic beers and wines are gaining prominence amongst consumers, opening the pathway for beverage producers to offer new and refreshing products akin to alcoholic beverages, but without their undesirable effects or long-term health consequences. Striving to become a key player in the non-alcoholic beverage market, Innovation Beverage Group (NASDAQ: IBG) stands out as a developer, manufacturer and marketer of a diverse beverage portfolio. With 60 formulations across 13 alcoholic and non-alcoholic brands, the company is striving to be at the forefront of catering to evolving consumer preferences. The Growth Of The Non-Alcoholic Beverage Market According to research by Introspective Market Research (IMR), the global non-alcoholic beer and wine market was estimated at $22.65 billion in 2022 and is projected to reach $37.21 billion by 2030, growing at a CAGR of 6.4%. While once considered a niche market, non-alcoholic beers and wines have become a material opportunity for beverage producers, but why is the question? The answer is varied. While changes in societal preference and attitudes toward alcohol consumption is an overarching rationale, there are other reasons many people are making this change. As detailed in IMR’s report, the rising health consciousness among consumers is arguably the primary reason behind the growth of the non-alcohol beer and wine market. With growing awareness about the health implications of excessive alcohol consumption and lifestyle movements such as Sober Curious, individuals, particularly millennials, are driving demand for this beverage category. The International Wine and Spirits Record (IWSR) recently reported that millennials are willing to try new products across the no-alcohol spectrum. Furthermore, almost half of millennial no-alcohol consumers are classed as ‘substituters’ – in other words, those who drink no-alcohol products on some occasions, and full-strength on others – and they are also disproportionately frequent no-alcohol consumers, accounting for 51% of frequent no-alcohol consumers in the US, and 47% of consistent consumers. Technology and product innovation are also driving the growth of the non-alcoholic beverage category. As outlined in the IMR report, leading companies are making the necessary investments to compete in this category, using industry-leading processes, such as vacuum distillation and fermentation control, to create non-alcoholic beers and wines that closely replicate the flavor profiles of traditional alcoholic beverages. This technological advancement has played a crucial role in enhancing product quality and gaining consumer acceptance, propelling the market forward. Another important consideration aiding the growth of the non-alcoholic beverage category is regulation and accessibility. As highlighted in the IMR report, in regions such as Europe, where non-alcoholic beverages are not subject to excise duty, the cost advantage can boost market growth by lowering consumer prices, enhancing affordability, and stimulating demand. Furthermore, being able to brand a product as “0% alcohol-free” offers a potential competitive advantage, enabling producers to position them as healthier options. The alcohol-free designation allows food delivery platforms, such as Uber (NYSE:UBER) or DoorDash (NASDAQ:DASH), to facilitate the sale and distribution of these products to consumers easily, as there is no requirement to show any identification to verify a purchaser's age for such products. Attaining Success In The Non-Alcoholic Beverage Category The non-alcoholic beverage category presents an opportunity for beverage producers to think differently and understand their consumers. Earlier this year, the Boston Consulting Group published a brief on the growth of the non-alcoholic beverage category, highlighting the factors that will aid beverage producers in gaining success. Top of the list was great products. In this increasingly competitive category, making a beverage with a distinct flavor profile and broad appeal is important. As such, beverage producers that invest in research and development have the potential to differentiate themselves. The second factor is brand perception. While it would be easy for established players to leverage their existing brand by making an alcohol-free version of their regular product as a means of entering the category; that may not have any staying power in the long run. As such, beverage producers need to be intentional and thoughtful as they enter the category, creating distinct brands. Finally, customer knowledge is also key. Societal preferences are ever-changing, as such, being able to identify these trends and align one’s product messaging and marketing to them is truly powerful. With individuals becoming more health-conscious or being more mindful and aware of their consumption habits, beverage producers are able to market their non-alcoholic beverages to individuals on the basis of their belief and lifestyle. IBG’s Drummberboy; A Non-Alcoholic Spirit For Those That Want To Forge Their Own Path Discussions about the non-alcoholic beverage category lean towards beer and wine, as such, IBG has attempted to differentiate themselves from the field with their Drummerboy non-alcoholic spirits, which include whiskey, tequila, gin, vermouth and aperitif. Four of out the five drinks have been awarded by the Melbourne International Spirits Competition (2022) and International Wine & Spirits Competition (2023). From a brand perception standpoint, Drummberboy actively leans into its non-alcoholic nature with the tagline “Zero Alcohol, Zero Cares Given.” Finally, the IBG has found ways to promote and align the product with consumers digitally, by way of having mocktail recipe guides on their website and tutorials on YouTube. A Distinctive Company With An Eye On The Future IBG wants to disrupt the beverage landscape by making quality an attribute across its versatile product offerings. Drummerboy is an example of the firm’s ability to do so, particularly in the fast-growing non-alcoholic beverage category. As IBG makes its way into the U.S. market, leveraging its potential competitive advantages of proprietary technology and vertical integration, the firm hopes to continue to bring to market more distinct and premium beverage offerings for consumers to enjoy. For more information on IBG's recent corporate activities and developments, read about their recent executive appointment and partnership with Sysco (NYSE: SYY), a leader in foodservice distribution.
