Crypto Forecast: Big Moves Await Bitcoin (BTC), Filecoin (FIL) and InQubeta (QUBE)

Blockchain Digest

In the high-octane world of cryptocurrencies, Bitcoin (BTC), Filecoin (FIL), and InQubeta (QUBE) are gaining attention. Investors anticipate big moves for these digital currencies, suggesting that they are promising candidates for adding value to portfolios. As the crypto market continues to expand and evolve, here's a look at the growth trajectories of these three cryptocurrencies. Visit InQubeta Presale InQubeta: The Innovative AI-focused Platform Starting off with a unique crypto player, InQubeta is changing the game by marrying blockchain technology and artificial intelligence. Built on the Ethereum network, the company's QUBE token is quickly gaining traction among investors for its high-growth potential. The InQubeta platform aims to connect investors with AI start-ups, creating an ecosystem where ideas and investments flourish. Their deflationary ERC20 token, QUBE, fuels this ecosystem. Following a successful pre-sale, which saw the company raise over $2 million, the token has caught the attention of investors worldwide. It recently entered the third stage of the presale round, and the price is already up by 60% from the beta stage. Unlike traditional cryptocurrencies, QUBE's value is driven by a 2% burn rate and a 5% buy/sell tax, which rewards QUBE holders. By using a deflationary model, QUBE is expected to increase in value over time, as supply gradually diminishes. The success of the QUBE presale and the subsequent increase in token value underscores InQubeta's potential. As the company prepares to launch its NFT marketplace, InQubeta Swap, and the InQubeta DAO, the future looks promising for QUBE and its holders. Visit InQubeta Presale Bitcoin: The Showstopper Bitcoin (BTC), the first-ever cryptocurrency, remains a heavyweight in the market, despite recent market turbulence. BTC's value continues to fluctuate around key resistance levels, leading to predictions of big moves in the future. While Bitcoin has recently dropped below the key support level of $30,000, market analysts believe that this could be a temporary retracement before a larger upward trend. The decentralized nature of Bitcoin and its position as a "store of value" means that it continues to attract institutional and retail investors alike. Filecoin: The Future of Decentralized Storage Filecoin (FIL), the token of the decentralized storage system, is another cryptocurrency expected to make significant strides. The platform allows users to rent out their spare storage space or buy space from others, creating a decentralized "marketplace" for data storage. FIL has experienced steady growth, largely due to the increased adoption of decentralized storage solutions. As more businesses and individuals seek out secure, reliable storage options that offer more control over data, the demand for services like Filecoin is expected to increase. Cryptocurrency: An Ever-Evolving Landscape In the ever-evolving world of cryptocurrencies, BTC, FIL, and QUBE are showing strong potential for growth. While Bitcoin continues to lead in market value, innovative platforms like InQubeta and Filecoin provide compelling investment opportunities. Investors are keeping a close eye on these three cryptocurrencies, anticipating big moves in the near future. As we continue to monitor the crypto landscape, it's clear that these digital currencies are set to redefine how we think about finance, investment, and digital technology.

Tiziana (NASDAQ: TLSA) Continues The Fight Against Multiple Sclerosis, Will Announce 6-Month Results For Its Novel Treatment Soon

Benzinga

By David Willey, Benzinga Tiziana Life Sciences (NASDAQ: TLSA), a clinical-stage biotechnology company focused on developing immunotherapies, will soon announce the 6-month results for patients with non-active Secondary Progressive Multiple Sclerosis (na-SPMS) receiving its novel intranasal treatment, foralumab. The company is conducting an expanded access program, where patients with non active secondary progressive multiple sclerosis (Na-SPMS) received foralumab, and a Positron Emission Tomography (PET) brain scan was taken for each patient at the 3-month mark. Tiziana declared that the findings were “extraordinary,” as the trial saw reduced microglia activity in five of the six patients with na-SPMS. This result indicates reduced neuroinflammation for these five patients and the possibility of an improvement in their condition. “To see a reduction in microglial activation in 5 out of 6 na-SPMS patients in only 3 months is extraordinary. This finding is even more remarkable because all of the 6 expanded access patients’ na-SPMS had clinically regressed on ocrelizumab treatment,” said Howard L. Weiner, M.D, chairman of Tiziana's Scientific Advisory Board. He continued, “I am excited to follow this program to see if the improvement in the 3-month PET scans will translate to clinical improvement in the coming months.” Now Tiziana is approaching the 6-month mark for its patients in the program and will be publishing the results for these patients. The company will be hoping that the positive results it saw at the 3-month mark will be replicated. It also anticipates progressing clinical development for foralumab by starting a phase 2 trial in Q3 of 2023. Foralumab Could Decrease NeuroInflammation These results are expected even as a recent study linked MS to a greater risk of Alzheimer's and dementia. Tiziana is tackling MS, Alzheimer’s and other neuroinflammatory diseases with foralumab, which reduces neuroinflammation caused by microglia activated by amyloid plaque buildup. By binding to regulatory T-cells, foralumab is able to cross the blood-brain barrier, decrease microglia activation and reduce neuroinflammation. Anti-CD3 monoclonal antibodies (mAb) are a class of therapy that reduces inflammation, and foralumab is the first fully human anti-CD3 mAb, which means it has a lower incidence rate and is less likely to cause an immune response than humanized or chimeric anti-CD3 mAbs. The market has been paying particular attention to the potential of anti-CD3 mAbs since Sanofi (NASDAQ: SNY) acquired Provention Bio for almost $3 billion for Provention’s anti-CD3 mAb drug Teplizumab. Teplizumab is a humanized mAb, which suggests that there could be interest in Tiziana’s fully human mAb therapy. Read more about Tiziana’s fight against multiple sclerosis.
