HTX Introduces Fee-Free BTC Trading with Daily 200K USDT Rewards Amid BTC's Surge to $70K

HTX

After experiencing the largest weekly drop in nearly six months, Bitcoin rebounded on March 25, briefly reaching $71,000. At the time of writing, Bitcoin was trading at 70,590 USDT on HTX. According to a report released by 10x Research, Bitcoin may surge to a new high of $83,000 after a period of consolidation. Ki Young Ju, the founder and CEO of CryptoQuant, has warned of a potential liquidity crisis among sellers within the next six months, citing the rapid net inflow of spot Bitcoin ETFs, which exceeded 30,000 BTC in early March. Should such a crisis occur, Bitcoin's next peak could surpass expectations due to limited seller liquidity and a thin order book. Given Bitcoin's heightened anticipation and scarcity, leveraging its volatility for maximum returns is a crucial consideration for investors. In response to this, HTX has introduced the "Trade to Earn" event aimed at enriching trading experiences and offering users opportunities for asset growth. Trade to Earn: HTX's Fee-Free Trading of BTC The Trade to Earn event is a benefit for all trading users at the HTX exchange. After successful registration for this event, participants can earn $HTX as rewards by trading designated cryptocurrencies. Additionally, all daily trading fees generated will be fully utilized for $HTX buybacks to support stable appreciation. 100% of $HTX acquired through buybacks will be entirely burned. Currently, the Trade to Earn event applies to BTC/USDT spot and futures trading. Participation in either trading type enables users to enjoy negative fee rates and stand a chance to share a daily prize pool of 100,000 USDT, respectively. This event enhances the platform's liquidity through reduced trading costs and improved trading efficiency, offering users better trading experience. Meanwhile, the supply of $HTX will be decreased through the event to enhance its stability and value, which will help attract more investors and users to participate in ecosystem development. Most importantly, this burning method also grants more earning opportunities for HTX DAO users. Through participation in liquidity mining and staking, users can receive more rewards in tokens, thereby achieving wealth appreciation. A Guide to Trade to Earn: How to Grab 200,000 USDT Daily According to HTX's announcements, the Trade to Earn event will conclude at 11:59:59 (UTC) on April 14, 2024, for the BTC/USDT spot trading and at 11:59:59 (UTC) on March 27, 2024, for the BTCUSDT perpetual futures trading. A daily prize pool of 100,000 USDT worth of $HTX will be distributed for each pair. The event is on a daily basis. A day is defined from 12:00 (UTC) on Day T to 11:59 (UTC) on Day T+1. For spot trades, rewards will be calculated and updated starting on Day T+2 at 04:00 (UTC), and users can claim their $HTX at any time. For futures trades, rewards will be credited to winners' HTX spot accounts within 3 working days after the end of each round. Trade to Earn is open to all HTX users, including market makers and API traders. To participate in Spot "Trade to Earn", you must have at least 300 Rockets and register on the event page. For the futures event, you must have at least 10 USDT (excluding futures trial bonuses) in your futures account and click on the Register Now button. Notably, starting from 16:00:00 (UTC) on March 19, 2024, trading fees corresponding to participants' rewards in the "Trade to Earn" event will no longer be eligible for commissions or rebates. Other fees generated by their trades will remain unaffected. This initiative aims to further increase the daily buyback amount of $HTX to support stable $HTX appreciation.

Netcompany joins OTCQX, eyes expansion of US investor base

Netcompany Group A/S

Netcompany (OTCQX:NTCYF) chief financial officer Thomas Johansen joins Proactive's Stephen Gunnion with more details about the Pan-European IT services firm as it starts trading on the OTCQX Best Market under the ticker 'NTCYF.' Johansen said the company has been listed on the Copenhagen exchange since 2018 and joined the OTCQX to broaden its shareholder base in the US, acknowledging the significance of the IT and technology sector there. Currently, approximately 10% of Netcompany's shares are held by US investors, with ambitions to increase this further. Trading on OTCQX is anticipated to facilitate easier investment by US investors and enhance the company's visibility in the US market. The company reported a challenging yet strong performance for the fourth quarter of December 2023, showcasing double-digit growth and robust cash flow. This growth was predominantly driven by its operations outside Denmark, particularly noting that 45% of its business originates from Denmark, with the international sector experiencing over 20% growth in 2023. Although there was a temporary softness in Denmark's private sector and public spending in 2023, both sectors are showing signs of rebound in 2024. For 2024, Netcompany projects revenue growth of 7-10% and an EBITA margin of 15-18%, expecting broad-based growth across Denmark, Norway, the Netherlands, the UK, Benelux, and Greece. This optimism is backed by a 17% increase in revenue visibility at the year's start and expected tenders within the European Union. Johansen highlighted Netcompany's investment appeal through strong organic growth, high margins, significant free cash flow, and a commitment to returning value to shareholders through buyback programs or dividends.

Under-The-Radar: SATO (TSX.V: SATO) (OTC: CCPUF) Bitcoin Miner Reports Strong Position For Upcoming Halving

SATO Technologies Corp.

By Austin DeNoce, Benzinga As we inch closer to April, the buzz around Bitcoin's next supply halving is palpable among crypto enthusiasts and investors alike. This event is set to reduce mining rewards to 3.125 BTC per block and stands as a pivotal moment in the cryptocurrency’s life cycle. Historically, such halvings have been the catalyst for bull markets, igniting significant price increases. Following this next halving, many price projections are well above $100,000, though such estimates are naturally speculative. However, this impending halving heralds a major change in the Bitcoin mining industry, where only those with the most efficient technology and access to low-cost energy can thrive. Many miners will likely struggle to stay profitable with the smaller block rewards, but those that survive have the potential to far exceed the movement in Bitcoin’s price. SATO Technologies: Undiscovered Gem In Bitcoin Mining For Upcoming Halving? Among the players well-positioned for the upcoming Bitcoin halving is SATO Technologies (TSX.V: SATO) (OTC: CCPUF) (“SATO”), a company that reports demonstrating strong revenue growth, profitability and cash flows, underscoring its status as an undiscovered gem in the Bitcoin mining sector. Founded in 2017 and listed on the Toronto Venture Exchange, SATO stands out for its industry-leading mining efficiency and disciplined cost structure, ensuring lean operations even in the most challenging market conditions. With more than six years of experience in developing, building and operating a data center, SATO takes a 100% self-mining approach, meaning it exclusively mines for itself without hosting. This strategy is backed by more than 5,500 computers, overseen by proprietary software developed and maintained in-house, and a 20 MW hydroelectric-powered data center in Québec, Canada, that operates on 100% renewable energy. With an output efficiency averaging 77.11 BTC per EH/s on nearly 0.6 EH/s, SATO says it is among the most efficient miners globally. Furthermore, SATO is poised to navigate the complexities of the Bitcoin halving with its strong balance sheet; cash on hand +62% YoY (2023 vs. 2022) and digital assets holdings +126% YoY (2023 vs 2022); reflecting the company’s financial health and ability to invest in growth opportunities. This financial performance is supported by a cost-effective and lean operating model, where site operating costs and other corporate overhead expenses are meticulously managed to ensure high profit margins. The company is also exploring the potential of entering the fields of High-Performance Computing (HPC) / Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Layer 2 Bitcoin technology. SATO’s Vision Into HPC, AI, And Building On Bitcoin (L2’s) Another differentiator between SATO and other miners is that the company's vision extends beyond mining. The company aims to diversify into HPC and AI. Despite the apparent differences between Bitcoin mining and AI/HPC endeavors, the underlying principle of converting electricity into high-density computational power remains the same. By applying its accumulated expertise from Bitcoin mining, SATO aims to develop highly competitive solutions to service the HPC industry like Generative AI. Also on SATO’s radar is building on Bitcoin with Layer 2 solutions with the goal to profit from the expected increase in transaction fees in the future. In pursuit of this goal, it has already made strides by introducing innovative software designed to facilitate the management of ordinals. This technology enables the creation of unique Bitcoin inscriptions and aids in the discovery of rare satoshis, showcasing the company's future potential to add value by diversifying revenue streams and further contributing to the Bitcoin ecosystem. A Digital Golden Opportunity? As the Bitcoin landscape evolves, particularly with the upcoming halving event, SATO stands out as a company prioritizing efficiency and cost discipline. Its unique approach to mining and strong balance sheet potentially position the company as a significant contender pre and post-halving. For those looking for that next undiscovered gem in the Bitcoin mining space, SATO may be worth watching, not just as a Bitcoin mining company but as a visionary enterprise potentially poised to advance the broader digital currency industry. Featured photo by Michael Förtsch on Unsplash. SATO, founded in 2017, is a publicly listed company providing efficient computing power. The Company currently operates a data center tailored to produce compute power for Bitcoin Mining, but may look to expand or add additional data centers for computing power for Bitcoin Mining, High Power Computing (“HPC”), Artificial Intelligence (“AI”), and L2’s.
