Unleashing Wealth Effect: HTX's Dive into AI, BRC20, MEME, New Public Chains, and More Emerging Sectors in the Crypto Space

HTX

As 2023 draws to a close, the cryptocurrency market exhibits a robust upward trend, navigating through the early-year volatility and fueled by the market sentiment regarding the potential approval of a spot Bitcoin ETF by the SEC at year-end. Moreover, over the course of the year, key players in sector rotation—such as AI, BRC20, MEME, and emerging public chain sectors—have adeptly filled market gaps. HTX serves as a significant contributor to market liquidity. It has played a crucial role in fostering the wealth effect across the four mainstream sectors in the crypto space. Among the top-performing 58 cryptocurrencies, $PEPE, listed by HTX, has created a legend, achieving an extraordinary nearly 2,000-fold increase. In the new public chain sector, where narratives unfold with each bull-bear cycle, HTX selected SUI and SEI among others, enabling its users to gain remarkable asset growth of 206 times and 178 times respectively. Riding the New Wave of the Crypto Sphere: Unlocking Wealth Opportunities at Every Turn Let's begin with the coin PEPE. In general, MEME tokens performed well throughout 2023. The MEME sector represents a fusion of entertainment and value, often imbued with a robust cultural and community flavor. The best MEME tokens, such as PEPE, don't merely unite popular culture with digital currency, they emerge as a dynamic force reshaping the cryptocurrency market, leading this unique market segment. In this trend, even some crypto veterans who consider Bitcoin as "digital gold" find themselves reevaluating assets with a "MEME nature". Even ORDI, essentially a MEME token, proves elusive when it comes to defining its specific utility, yet its intrinsic allure endures. Simply put, the imagination space is always the best support for the price of MEME tokens. In addition, with Artificial Intelligence (AI) tokens emerging in the current cryptocurrency market, HTX promptly listed WLD (WorldCoin) on its platform, providing holders with an extraordinary return of 54 times. Furthermore, in the evergreen BRC20 sector, HTX is the first mainstream exchange to get BRC20 tokens listed. ORDI, for example, has delivered impressive performance, achieving a growth of 53 times. HTX has always kept a close eye on the cutting-edge technology within the industry. The introduction of AI has brought innovative thinking and business models to the cryptocurrency market. In addition to WLD, HTX also listed ChainGPT (CGPT), a representative asset in the AI+Crypto sector, right from the outset. As an AI-powered token launched on the BNB Chain, CGPT is a unique asset that combines AI algorithms and question-answering capabilities with blockchain technology. Despite being issued on the BNB Chain, HTX embraced CGPT warmly, emphasizing its ongoing dedication to discovering high-quality assets. Anyway, the wealth myth recognizes no distinctions between camps. In 2023, HTX effectively covered the entire spectrum of the industry in terms of asset listings. Reflecting on HTX's new listings in 2023, one can observe that the platform has been at the forefront, actively seeking and promoting new assets. Consistently, within each hot trend in the crypto sphere, some assets newly listed on HTX showcase robust performance. By fully exploring the potential of the cryptocurrency market, HTX's new token listings in 2023 offer investors a genuine first-mover advantage. Through a process of rigorous screening and in-depth market research, HTX carefully selects and promotes new tokens with huge growth potential. This initiative not only provides a gateway for investors choosing the platform to comprehend and engage in the emerging digital currency market but also promotes the development and prosperity of the entire crypto economic ecosystem. HTX, with its steadfast commitment and formidable capabilities, proves its crucial position as a major force in the industry. Embracing Web 3.0 Trends in the Battle for Emerging Sectors within Crypto Space In the past, the crypto market was mainly seen as a place for creating wealth. However, with the ongoing evolution of blockchain technology, it has increasingly intertwined with diverse industries. The fusion of AI technology and cryptocurrency, for instance, has given rise to novel collaboration models. Additionally, Bitcoin has garnered sustained industry support, not only as an investment but also in rejuvenating traditional assets. The advent of MEME tokens and BRC20 tokens has introduced fresh application scenarios for Bitcoin, consequently augmenting its overall value. AI-Crypto Fusion: A Leading Bullish Narrative in the Crypto Sphere The crypto market resembles an unrestricted Nasdaq exchange for AI, where data and computing power symbolize market sentiment and pricing, reflecting the prospective value of AI in this space. Presently, the convergence trend between AI and cryptocurrency is progressing at an unprecedented pace. According to CoinMarketCap data, the total market capitalization of the global cryptocurrency market has surpassed $2 trillion. Simultaneously, the scale of the global artificial intelligence market is experiencing rapid growth, projected to reach nearly $600 billion by 2025. In this environment, "AI + Crypto" is not only a conceptual combination but also an innovation at the practical application level. With a keen eye on the AI landscape, HTX has listed AI-related digital assets in 2023, namely, WLD, CGPT, and PAAL. ● AI + Data: Taking WLD as an example, its most significant innovation lies in the integration of ZKML (Zero Knowledge Proof Machine Learning) and Proof of Personhood. This creates a genuinely privacy-protected, global, blockchain-based data platform for mankind, fostering the collective sharing of AI's immense productivity. ● AI + Algorithm: Taking CGPT as an example, it seamlessly incorporates AI algorithms and question-answering capabilities into the blockchain. ● AI + Computing Power: Taking PAAL as an example, it delves into the core of machine learning (ML) technology, emphasizing an understanding of human needs that goes beyond mere competition between models and computing power. HTX's newly listed assets have covered the more refined segments of the AI sector, revealing HTX's deep understanding of the evolving trends in AI technology. Looking ahead, as AI becomes a symbol of advanced productivity permeating every facet of human society, the narrative of AI-Crypto fusion is expected to unfold more surprises within the crypto space. BRC-20 Tokens Unleashing the "Inscription Summer" and Sparking a New Era of Boom for Bitcoin BRC20 is approximately equivalent to the ERC20 standard on Ethereum. The introduction of BRC20, ORC, and DRC unlocks many new possibilities for Bitcoin and its forks. Bitcoin can now perform additional functions beyond its traditional transfer and block confirmation. Despite market volatility, Bitcoin's value and scope of application have continued to expand in the long term after the "Inscription Summer". Among them, the most striking is the miners' great victory. Since its introduction to the Bitcoin network in February 2023, the Bitcoin inscription function has consumed a considerable amount of block space. The inscription function allows for more transactions to be included in a block. The size and number of transactions in the Bitcoin mempool have significantly increased since the inscription function was introduced. The function of inscriptions in the Bitcoin network can be likened to packing materials in a box. Typically, they don't replace high-value crypto transfers but instead utilize any available block space not occupied by crypto transactions. The hashrate of the Bitcoin network, a measure of computing power, has surged by 50% since the introduction of the inscription function in February 2023. The upcoming Bitcoin halving cycle is anticipated to take place in 2024. During the halving, the reward for mining a new block will be halved, diminishing expected returns for miners. In response, miners might find a stronger incentive to expand the number of tokens within the BRC20 ecosystem. ORDI, the first BRC-20 token created on the Bitcoin blockchain, has already been listed on HTX. Following a brief retracement, ORDI is gaining popularity, firmly establishing itself as the leading BRC20 token. Concurrently, HTX has listed SATS and RATS, providing users seeking potential BRC20 tokens with a more secure alternative off-chain. Overall, the introduction of the inscription function in the Bitcoin blockchain has undeniably had a profound impact on transaction patterns, miner economics, and network status. With the ongoing evolution of the Bitcoin network and the expanding use of the inscription function, these changes are expected to endure, giving rise to new trends. MEME Coins Capture Retail Investors' Interest, While New Public Chains Unveil Significant Growth Potential HTX has dedicated continuous efforts to both the MEME sector and the new public chains. As a steadfast supporter of the MEME sector, HTX listed many popular MEME tokens in 2023, including VOLT, PEPE, AIGOGE, MONG, WSM, and MEME. Notably, PEPE saw a remarkable surge, boasting an astounding 1999-fold increase. MEME is a unique breed in the crypto world, a financial product based on emotions. If options are derivatives of spot, then the MEMEs of each stage are the inscriptions of the current history, representing the unique memories of an era. They continue to evolve as cultural cycles replicate, reproduce, and propagate. The existence of MEME coins is more like a cultural expression, a recognition by retail investors of the culture of a specific community. Dogecoin (DOGE) is one of the most famous MEME tokens. It was launched in 2013 with the Shiba Inu as its mascot and quickly became a cultural icon of the cryptocurrency world. This year, PepeCoin is undoubtedly the successor to the MEME legend. It uses Pepe the Frog as its image and has attracted a group of passionate followers of the Sad Pepe. HTX's data reveals its huge support for the MEME sector in 2023, largely aligning with its "user-first" strategy. Meanwhile, HTX's focus on the public chain sector is also evident with the listing of assets such as FLR, ARB, SUI, SEI, TON, and CBK. Additionally, the listing of BONK on Solana underscores its broad vision in the public chain domain. Old public chains, L2, and new public chains still hold potential value. In addition to Ethereum, public chains such as Polkadot, Cosmos, Solana, NEAR, and Avalanche have demonstrated their diversity with their unique technological innovations. The emergence of Ethereum's Layer-2 solutions, particularly the rise of Arbitrum Rollup and Optimistic Rollup, has garnered significant market attention for new public chains like Aptos and Sui, even in their early stages of inception. From a long-term perspective, the exploration and advancement of new public chain technologies are crucial, as they have the potential to bring innovation to the entire blockchain ecosystem in specific scenarios. HTX encourages innovation and has always been at the forefront of the industry in searching for innovative projects. It's noteworthy that HTX has also listed WSTUSDT, a token in the RWA sector. Looking ahead, we anticipate that HTX will make more tokens in the RWA sector available for purchase in the future. Exploring New Crypto Sectors: HTX Brings Wealth Growth Opportunities for Users HTX's core competency lies in the discovery and listing of new assets. The four major sectors discussed in this article serve as mere examples. At present, HTX has introduced 58 potential coins and high-quality assets spanning different sectors in 2023. HTX's impressive performance in listing new assets in 2023 has demonstrated its unwavering commitment to advancing the development of the crypto industry. The market is gradually recovering, with a bull run on the horizon. HTX is not resting on its laurels. Instead, it continues to track the pulse of the market and explore opportunities by dedicating itself to the exploration of new sectors and tokens. By improving market awareness and deepening industrial layout, HTX aims to provide users with a more diverse range of asset choices and investment opportunities.

The 2023 VinFuture Prize honored four scientific works under the theme of "Boundless Unity"

Vingroup

HANOI, VIETNAM - Media OutReach Newswire - 21 December 2023 - The VinFuture Foundation has honored four scientific breakthroughs in 2023. The US$3 million Grand Prize was awarded to the "Invention in creating a sustainable platform for green energy through production with solar cells and storage with Lithium-ion batteries." Three VinFuture Special Prizes were awarded to "Invention and advancement of disease-resistant rice varieties", "The discovery of the ozone depletion mechanism in Antarctica", and "The discovery of the role of glucagon-like peptides-1 (GLP-1), paving the way for widely used treatments for diabetes and obesity." The 2023 VinFuture Prize Award Ceremony was broadcast live nationally on Vietnam National Television VTV1. The ceremony was graced with the presence of His Excellency Vo Van Thuong - the President of the Socialist Republic of Viet Nam, and leaders of domestic ministries and departments, international ambassadors, and eminent scientists from around the world. The four winning works surpassed nearly 1,400 impressive nominations originating from 90 countries and territories. These breakthroughs have a profound impact on the present and future of humanity in crucial fields such as green and sustainable energy, climate change response, sustainable agriculture, food security, and healthcare, impacting the lives of billions of people worldwide. Remarkably, all the projects share a common thread of collaboration between developed and developing countries, leveraging the diversity of different groundbreaking inventions. Through this, the awarded breakthroughs have created comprehensive technologies of global significance, contributing to the construction of a sustainable future for humanity. Speaking at the Award Ceremony, President Vo Van Thuong said: "With a global vision and a "Boundless Unity" approach, the VinFuture Prize recognizes and honors scientists who have outstanding research works. Innovative and groundbreaking technologies with high practical applications are crucial for enhancing people's lives and fostering connections within the worldwide scientific community. Since the first series of the award until now, the VinFuture Prize has consistently pursued its mission of "science for humanity" with a focus on the four core values: Equality, Global Reach, Sustainability, and Pioneering. It has achieved steady growth in quality, quantity, and diversity, as well as gained increasing international attention, influence, and reputation. The President also affirmed that: "The success of the VinFuture Prize as a well-deserved outcome of the founder's diligent and committed efforts. I express my appreciation and congratulations to the founders who established this Award." The 2023 VinFuture Grand Prize was awarded to four scientists: Prof. Martin Andrew Green (Australia), Prof. Stanley Whittingham (United States), Prof. Rachid Yazami (Morocco), and Prof. Akira Yoshino (Japan) for their breakthrough inventions in creating a sustainable platform for green energy through production with solar cells and storage with Lithium-ion batteries. The combination of these transformative projects spearheaded a revolution in sustainable green energy solutions for the modern world. Prof. Martin Green and his research team pioneered the Passive Emitter and Rear Contact (PERC) technology, elevating energy conversion efficiency from 15% to an impressive 25%. These advancements deliver exceptional utilities, even in regions with limited sunlight conditions. Since its mass production in 2012, PERC solar cells have commanded a significant 60% share of the global solar cell market. Meanwhile, the advent of Lithium-ion battery storage has extended the reach of energy consumption across all geographical regions and socioeconomic classes, providing widespread access to green and sustainable energy solutions. Lithium-ion batteries power 15 billion mobile devices and 26 million electric vehicles globally, thanks to the work of outstanding scientists: Prof. Stanley Whittingham, Prof. Rachid Yazami, Prof. Akira Yoshino, and the late Prof. John Goodenough. The award ceremony also paid tribute to and honored the late Prof. John Goodenough – a pioneering scientist whose invention enabled Lithium-ion batteries to be safely rechargeable for the first time, improving the efficiency and saving resources. The synergy of these two groundbreaking technological revolutions has promoted the widespread adoption and accessibility of clean energy in our everyday lives through the conversion of solar energy into electricity by PERC solar cells and storage by Lithium-ion battery. In addition to the Grand Prize, three Special Prizes, each valued at US$500,000, have been awarded to innovators with outstanding achievements in emerging fields, female innovators, and innovators from developing countries. The 2023 VinFuture Special Prize for Innovators with Outstanding Achievements in Emerging Fields is awarded to Prof. Daniel Joshua Drucker (Canada), Prof. Joel Francis Habener (United States), Prof. Jens Juul Holst (Denmark), and Assoc. Prof. Svetlana Mojsov (United States) for the "discovery of the role of glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1), paving the way for widely used treatments for diabetes and obesity and stimulating emerging applications for neurodegenerative diseases". The 2023 VinFuture Special Prize for Innovators with Outstanding Achievements in Emerging Fields is awarded to Prof. Daniel Joshua Drucker (Canada), Prof. Joel Francis Habener (United States), Prof. Jens Juul Holst (Denmark), and Assoc. Prof. Svetlana Mojsov (United States) Their work lays the foundation for the treatment of many diseases, including type-2 diabetes, obesity, and short bowel syndrome, positively impacting more than 400 million people with type-2 diabetes, more than 1 billion people with obesity, and more than 3 million people with short bowel syndrome. In 2023, more than 20 million doses of GLP-1 drugs have been used in the world, with an impressive 6.7% increase in adoption. In addition, the discovery of the peptide's acting mechanism has promoted research and development of novel treatments for cardiovascular diseases and neurodegenerative diseases, such as Alzheimer's and Parkinson's, which are among the leading causes of death globally. The 2023 VinFuture Special Prize for Innovators from Developing Countries has honored Indian American Prof. Gurdev Singh Khush and Vietnamese Prof. Vo Tong Xuan for their significant contributions to the invention and advancement of disease-resistant rice varieties, ensuring global food security. Professor Khush pioneered the development of rice cultivars with pest resistance, short growth periods, and high yields, such as IR36 and IR64. Among them, IR64 and its descendants have been widely grown in many countries, including the Philippines, Indonesia, Bangladesh, and India, while IR36 is popular in the Mekong Delta of Vietnam, which is regularly plagued by pests. Thanks to the significant efforts of Prof. Vo Tong Xuan, IR36 and IR64 rice varieties are currently the most common in tropical Asia, helping to cut production costs, enhance yield, restrict pesticide use, and promote global agricultural sustainability. The 2023 VinFuture Special Prize for Female Innovators has honored Prof. Susan Solomon (United States) for the discovery of the ozone depletion mechanism in Antarctica, contributing to the establishment of the Montreal Protocol. Prof. Solomon gathered credible information about the unusually large hole in the ozone layer caused by chlorofluorocarbons (CFC) in Antarctica, laying the groundwork for proposing and bringing the Montreal Protocol to fruition. This is one of the most successful international accords in tackling global environmental concerns, contributing to a global agreement to phase out ozone-depleting compounds like CFCs. According to released data from 2016, the ozone hole has been reduced by more than 4 million square kilometers since its peak in 2000 and will entirely regenerate in the coming decades. The Montreal Protocol has made a substantial contribution to the protection of the global climate system and is expected to prevent an additional 100-200 billion tons of CO2 emissions by 2050, potentially reducing the global temperature increase from 2-5°C to 0.5°C by 2100. Commenting on the results of the 2023 VinFuture Prize, Professor Sir Richard Friend, VinFuture Prize Council Chair, stated, "We are very excited to have announced our new VinFuture Prize winners. They have all made huge advances in science and innovation, and these have had real global impact. The Grand Prize recognizes the pioneers in two of the critical technologies we need to achieve zero-carbon energy that are critical if we are to control global warming. The breadth of scope to bring science and innovation to benefit society is huge, as reflected by this year's three Special Prizes. The vision that the Founders set – to celebrate the potential for discovery and innovation to bring real benefits to societies across the whole globe – is very clearly delivered in the set of this year's prize winners." The spirit of "Boundless Unity" for the benefit of humanity unites the four award-winning projects in a meaningful way. When individual scientific accomplishments synergize, they help to establish a sustainable foundation for humanity. The VinFuture Prize differs from other prestigious international awards in that it recognizes the cross-border collaboration of global scientists. With the success of the third award season, the VinFuture Prize upholds its reputation among the international scientific community owing to the comprehensiveness, diversity, and fairness of the judging process. The VinFuture Foundation is proud to continue its mission of "Science for Humanity" and inspiring innovation in Vietnamese science and technology, contributing to a prosperous, equitable, and sustainable future for all people worldwide. About the VinFuture Prize The VinFuture Prize is the core activity of the VinFuture Foundation, a non-profit organization established on International Human Solidarity Day on December 20th, 2020, co-founded by billionaire Mr. Pham Nhat Vuong and his wife, Mrs. Pham Thu Huong. The VinFuture Prize aims to recognize transformative scientific and technological innovations capable of making significant positive changes in the lives of millions of people worldwide. 2024 VinFuture Prize Official Call for Nominations The fourth award season of the VinFuture Prize has now begun, following the 2023 VinFuture Prize's conclusion.

NLPC Files SEC Complaint Against Warren Buffett and Berkshire Hathaway for Having Shareholder Arrested During Annual Meeting For Mentioning Jeffrey Epstein

NLPC

National Legal and Policy Center (NLPC) filed a Complaint with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) today against Warren Buffett and Berkshire Hathaway for silencing and ordering the arrest of the group’s chairman, Peter Flaherty, at the company’s shareholders’ meeting on May 6, 2023 At the meeting, Flaherty spoke in favor of NLPC’s shareholder proposal for an independent chairman. Buffett is currently both Chairman and CEO. Flaherty cited the reputational risk to the company posed by Warren Buffett’s close identification with Bill Gates and the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation and its “woke” policies to which Buffett has contributed tens of billions. Flaherty pointed to Gates' association with Jeffrey Epstein, even after Epstein had been convicted of sex crimes against minors. From the Complaint: We hereby request that the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) initiate a formal investigation, including the issuance of subpoenas, and take appropriate administrative and civil enforcement action against Berkshire Hathaway Inc. (Berkshire), Warren Buffett, its Chairman and CEO, and other Berkshire officers and agents, for their unlawful conduct during the annual shareholders’ meeting in Omaha, Nebraska on May 6, 2023. During his authorized and SEC-mandated presentation in support of Proposal No. 8 for an independent chair, Peter Flaherty, Chairman of the National Legal and Policy Center (NLPC), was interrupted by a Berkshire executive, had his microphone cut, and was arrested for trespassing because Warren Buffett, its CEO and Chairman, did not like what Mr. Flaherty had to say in support of NLPC’s proposal. In addition to imposing appropriate sanctions, the SEC should issue a cease and desist order against Berkshire from prematurely terminating NLPC’s and any other shareholder’s presentation at future annual shareholder meetings Events since the arrest have confirmed the importance of the issue. Last weekend, the Wall Street Journal published a lengthy story with new details about Epstein’s interactions with Gates and other wealthy individuals. On Monday, a federal judge ensured that the issue will stay alive in the new year when she ordered that the names of Epstein associates be made public. From the Complaint: NLPC further requests that the following enforcement and remedial actions be taken to ensure that NLPC’s rights as shareholders in the Company are protected and to remediate the violation of the rights of all other shareholders that took place by depriving them of the right to hear Mr. Flaherty’s statement supporting the proposal on May 6, 2023: Declare that Berkshire’s actions cutting off the mic of Mr. Flaherty before his allotted three-minutes to speak expired, having him expelled from the annual meeting, and subsequently arrested, constitute a violation of SEC’s rules and policies designed to protect shareholder rights. Order Berkshire to issue an apology on its website to NLPC and Mr. Flaherty for cutting his mic and having him arrested. Order Berkshire to post a video of Mr. Flaherty’s full uninterrupted three-minute prepared remarks on Berkshire’s website for at least three years, along with a written transcript. Issue a Cease and Desist Order that Berkshire shall refrain from prematurely terminating the oral presentation of Mr. Flaherty and any other proponent for an authorized shareholder proxy proposal or interrupting, harassing, or having them expelled from the meeting or arrested at future meetings as long as their presentation is in within the allotted time given by the company. Any and all other relief that the Commission deems just and appropriate. Click here for the Complaint. Click here for Complaint Exhibits. The Complaint includes links to three videos that together provide a complete account of what took place. What Flaherty said before his mic was cut: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=egy8kpUaOIY Security moves in on Flaherty: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RQOx7FAAGbU&t=0s The arrest: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ErHXIrDNz14 NLPC Counsel Paul Kamenar, who submitted the Complaint, concludes: "Berkshire’s and Mr. Buffett’s actions are an ominous precedent for the rights of shareholders that cannot be allowed to stand. We believe that the silencing and arrest of a shareholder during their presentation on behalf of their proposal at the annual meeting of a public company in the United States is unprecedented, should be sanctioned, and should not allowed to be repeated." NLPC has already filed a proposal on the risks of Berkshire’s business in China for the 2024 annual meeting. Founded in 1991, the National Legal and Policy Center promotes ethics in public life through research, investigation, education and legal action.
