Tech megatrend success: HAN-Gins Index fund managing director shares strategies for over 45% growth

HANetf

Anthony Ginsberg, managing director of the HAN-GINS Megatrend ETF, joined Steve Darling from Proactive to discuss the success of their tech Megatrend ETF. The fund, with a 45% surge this year and 20% year-over-year growth, capitalizes on the Fourth Industrial Revolution. Distinguished by its diversified approach, the ETF encompasses AI, robotics, cybersecurity, cloud, and electric vehicles, standing apart from standard tech funds. Unlike NASDAQ, the ETF maintains a global benchmark, with the US accounting for only 58-59%, promoting broader diversification. Ginsberg emphasized the equal-weighted structure of the fund, rotating profits every six months across its eight subthemes. This approach differentiates the Megatrend ETF from NASDAQ's heavily weighted allocation to large-cap stocks like the FAANGs. Ginsberg noted the emphasis on Asia, with over 20% exposure, compared to 10% in the US. Tech's transformative role was highlighted, driven by AI's projected quadrupling in expenditure to $2.5 trillion, influencing cloud and cybersecurity domains. Ginsberg also acknowledged the impact of remote work and key acquisitions, such as Microsoft's $75 billion Activision deal. Overall, this strategy leverages the tech megatrend's global scope and diversified portfolio to achieve notable returns.

This Fandom Social Media App Based on AI Harnesses The Economic Power Of Fandom – And Shares It With Its 26 Million Users

Benzinga

By Rachael Green, Benzinga Hanryu Holdings, Inc. (NASDAQ: HRYU) launched Version 2.0 of its K-culture fandom platform, FANTOO, this month. The 26 million users currently using FANTOO will now get personalized content and a more user-friendly interface. Here’s a closer look at what the global fandom social media platform offers users and how it’s generating earnings for the company and its shareholders. What Is FANTOO? Unlike other fandom apps that are centered around a single artist or group, FANTOO is a global platform for all fandoms. Its current user base spans 150 countries, but real-time multilingual translation erases language barriers so users can connect with each other over their shared interests regardless of language or location. The fandom-oriented social media app gives fans a place to join or start clubs focused on their favorite artists, shows and more. They can unpack the latest episode of their favorite K-drama with fellow fans, vote for their favorite K-pop artist in monthly contests, and create content to share in clubs or the main feed. That includes webcomics, fan art, fan fiction and other fandom-related content. What separates the app from any other social media platforms out there, though, is a unique reward system that actually allows users and content creators to earn money on their fandom content and interactions. Creating content, posting, liking, sharing and other activity in the app is rewarded with FP points. Those points can be used to make purchases in the app or be converted into your local currency and withdrawn. Another way users can earn is by selling things on the fan shop, an eBay-like platform for buying and selling merchandise and collectibles related to their favorite fandoms. FANTOO 2.0 Comes With Multiple Revenue Streams Right now, Hanryu generates the bulk of its revenue through advertising, generating over $889,000 from that stream in 2022. Brands advertising on the platform have access to a highly engaged audience along with the data analytics needed to get their message in front of the users most likely to be interested. But the company has added additional sources of revenue throughout this year, including transaction fees, user-created content, merchandise and live shows streamed on the platform. Looking ahead, Hanryu has more big plans in store for FANTOO including expanding the range of fandoms that can gather on the platform and a metaverse version of the platform where fans can meet and explore the different features of the app in virtual reality. The company also announced a partnership this month with SALTLUX, a South Korea-based AI tech company that’s developed an AI-powered conversational virtual assistant. SALTLUX bears the distinction of holding the most AI and big data-related patents in Korea. Through the partnership, Hanryu plans to adapt the technology to create personalized AI assistants and chatbots. Slated to launch later this year, the service will use voice synthesis and deep learning technology to allow fans to have realistic conversations with an AI that sounds like their favorite celebrities. Chang-Hyuk Kang, CEO and Director of Hanryu Holdings, commented on the development, "We are pleased to partner with SALTLUX to integrate AI into FANTOO. This advanced technology will provide our loyal userbase with an enhanced experience on FANTOO. Launching our conversational virtual assistant is only the beginning of AI capabilities on our platform." This post contains sponsored content.

How Shapeways Is Helping Small And Midsized Manufacturers Digitize Their Operations Through Its Proprietary Software

Benzinga

By Faith Ashmore, Benzinga Shapeways Holdings, Inc. (NASDAQ: SHPW), a major player in the field of digital manufacturing, is currently redefining the global manufacturing industry. Shapeways is achieving this shift through enabling on-demand manufacturing and simplifying complex production through its proprietary software system. The company is helping other small and midsized manufacturers do the same, providing access to Shapeways’ proprietary software and supporting them in digitizing their operations, growing revenue, and expanding manufacturing capabilities. “The manufacturing industry is one of the largest markets that has yet to be digitized. We see large manufacturing companies investing in digital transformation, but the smaller and midsized players have often missed out,” shared Gregory Kress, CEO of Shapeways. “We want to help them achieve the same benefits as those larger companies.” Realizing a need–and recognizing the opportunity–to reshape manufacturing, Shapeways responded with the launch of OTTO, a proprietary software platform that streamlines ordering, performs file analysis, and accelerates production. OTTO offers advantages beyond optimizing labor efficiency, asset utilization, and inventory costs. This powerful software platform also strengthens relationships between manufacturers and their customers, encouraging growth and paving the way for future opportunities. Acquiring MFG in 2022, Shapeways further reinforced the connection between their manufacturers and buyers by deploying software features and services to the platform. MFG.com now provides an end-to-end procurement and management system, helping manufacturers increase productivity and revenue. The MFG service benefits business owners, industrial designers, and engineers. Shapeways recently introduced MFG Materials, a new software offering on the MFG platform. This addition provides manufacturers with access to a wide range of raw materials at an average discount of 15% off list prices. Reflecting Shapeways' commitment to the manufacturing sector, this innovative solution is designed to tap into the large and growing global raw materials market, with aluminum alone valued at $169.8 billion in 2021. This market is projected to reach $277.5 billion by 2030, according to Precedence Research. Building on user feedback, Shapeways also developed MFG Transactions within the MFG platform. Requested by 92% of MFG buyers, this practical solution allows manufacturers to handle invoices and payments directly. Shapeways introduced the 3D Model Viewer too, a sophisticated tool that simplifies the quoting experience, showcasing all the files a potential buyer uploads with their RFQ (including 2D files). The 3D Model Viewer not only enables interactive highlighting and grouping of intricate details, but also delivers precise measurements and superior visualization techniques. Leading with world-renowned expertise and advanced software, Shapeways is well-positioned to revolutionize the manufacturing landscape. By extending their innovative, on-demand manufacturing services and software to a broad range of industries, Shapeways allows other companies to tap into their knowledge and insights to remain competitive in an ever-changing modern market.

News Release

Three of the Best Passive Income Altcoins: Vechain (VET), Lido DAO (LDO), Everlodge (ELDG)

Total Media

In the dynamic realm of cryptocurrencies, there are select altcoins that stand out for their potential to provide passive income. Among these, Vechain (VET), Everlodge (ELDG), and Lido DAO (LDO) are prominent names that have gained traction. Particularly, Everlodge piques interest as it is currently in its presale phase, presenting a golden opportunity for early investors to get involved in what could be a promising source of steady earnings. Join the Everlodge presale and win a luxury holiday to the Maldives Everlodge (ELDG): A Fresh Take on Property Investments By introducing fractional property ownership through Non-Fungible Tokens (NFTs), Everlodge promises a tantalizing proposition: owning a slice of luxury properties, like a $9 million New York apartment, for an investment as low as $100. Real estate, traditionally considered one of the most stable investments, combined with the agility and flexibility of blockchain, has created a formula that's attracting millionaires like magnets. They see it not only as a chance to diversify their portfolios but as an opportunity to be part of an innovative wave set to revolutionize property investments. Everlodge's property NFTs, backed by tangible assets, offer an unparalleled level of security in the crypto space. The digital tokens represent real estate ownership, which can be traded or sold seamlessly on the platform. But that's not all. The Rewards Club feature allows investors to earn complimentary stays in luxurious properties, further blurring the lines between luxury experiences and investment assets. Members can even "flip" their earned nights, introducing yet another source of passive income. The currency of this novel ecosystem, the ELDG token, is the linchpin that holds all these features together. Holders can even stake their ELDG for passive income staking rewards. For early investors, the potential upside is enormous. The token's initial offering at a mere $0.010 during phase 1 of the presale allows investors to get on board at the lowest price point possible. With all these features — real estate-backed NFTs, rewards club, staking opportunities — there's no doubt that Everlodge is one of the best passive income altcoins in the market today. Analysts can see the ELDG token rising to $1.00 as it begins to pick up steam. Vechain (VET): Simplified Rewards with Mobile Wallet VeChain is a blockchain-based platform that was founded in 2015 with the aim of disrupting the supply chain industry. Vechain has become one of the leading players in this space due to its innovative use of distributed ledger technology (DLT) and smart contracts. VeChain works on a dual-token model, in which the VTHO token is used to power transactions within the platform. This creates a passive income stream for holders of the native VET token by incentivizing them to hold their tokens instead of selling them on exchanges. All staking can be done via the mobile wallet, so users don't need to invest in specialized hardware or make any technical knowledge. Furthermore, the staking rewards are distributed on a daily basis, so users can quickly start earning income from their VeChain holdings. The only downside is the slow bleed in the VeChain price. After hitting $0.28 in 2021, VeChain has fallen 94% to a current price of just $0.01663. Analysts see the VeChain price oscillating between $0.010 and $0.020 until a crypto-wide bull run emerges. Lido DAO (LDO): Decentralized Earnings, But a Shift to Everlodge (ELDG) Presale Lido DAO is the leading decentralized staking infrastructure. In Q1 2023, Lido DAO soared from a mere $0.93 to an impressive $3.32, primarily driven by excitement surrounding the Lido V2 protocol. However, this meteoric rise was ephemeral, with Lido DAO retracing to its present rate of $1.67. Technical analysis indicates that Lido DAO is ensnared within a symmetrical triangle pattern, a formation that typically heralds a notable price shift. As the pattern's climax approaches at the end of August, Lido DAO market participants remain on tenterhooks, forecasting either an upward thrust revisiting the $3.32 mark or a downward drift to the $1.00 Lido DAO support zone. On the other hand, Everlodge has successfully resisted Bitcoin's bearish undertow, consistently climbing and distinguishing itself from the prevailing market trajectory. Such tenacity could pique the interest of Lido DAO investors scouting for promising prospects amidst turbulent times.

Comcast and Pikes Peak Library District Partner to Boost Library Wi-Fi

Comcast Colorado

Comcast in Colorado is partnering with Pikes Peak Library District (PPLD) to bring Comcast Lift Zone connectivity centers to four Library locations in Colorado Springs: Library 21c, as well as Penrose, East, and Ruth Holley libraries. Comcast Lift Zones provide an additional free Wi-Fi network that will increase the number of Internet users the Library can support at once without compromising quality of service. Comcast started Lift Zones as part of its ongoing commitment to connect low-income families to the Internet so they can fully participate in educational opportunities and the digital economy (called digital equity). The COVID-19 pandemic revealed disparities in digital equity, and Comcast responded by bringing Lift Zones to education and community centers. “Access to high-speed internet and digital skills training is no longer a luxury, but a necessity, making connectivity more important than ever. We are honored to partner with Pikes Peak Library District to ensure more people in the Colorado Springs area have access to fast, reliable, and secure connectivity year-round,” said J.D. Keller, Sr. Vice President, Comcast Mountain West Region. “From doing homework, searching for jobs, accessing healthcare services and so much more, partnerships like the one with Pikes Peak Library District are important to make sustainable progress to advancing economic mobility and promoting digital equity in our communities.” “Lift Zones at these libraries will be valuable assets for our whole community, especially for people who don’t have access to Wi-Fi at home. It will be easier to do things like search and apply for jobs, download documents for work and school, meet virtually, collaborate virtually on large creative projects, or enjoy leisure activities like downloading games or streaming shows,” said Lance James, chief development officer and foundation executive officer of the PPLD Foundation. “Access to high-speed internet and digital skills training is no longer a luxury, but a necessity, making connectivity more important than ever.
