HTX Earn Introduces 3-Day Term for Shark Fin Products, Complementing existing 7-Day offerings: How to Choose?

HTX

The recent volatility in the cryptocurrency market has attracted increasing attention from both new and experienced crypto investors. Their primary concern revolves around the pursuit of stable returns, especially for newcomers. Shark Fin products, such as the 3-day and existing 7-day options from HTX Earn, present an attractive opportunity for achieving steady earnings. How do you select the Shark Fin product that suits you best and offers stable returns? Let's delve into HTX's Shark Fin products and explore the path to profitability. In September of this year, HTX Earn launched a Shark Fin product with a 7-day term, and soon the exchange will introduce a 3-day term option for their Shark Fin products. Advantages of Shark Fin Products Shark Fin, a structured product, offers investors basic returns regardless of market trends, be they bearish or bullish. Additionally, If you make accurate predictions about future market trends while investing, you can benefit from extra gains. Features of HTX Shark Fin Products: Assets subscribed to are fully safeguarded under any market conditions. When the product you have subscribed to reaches maturity, you will enjoy extra returns if the crypto price falls within your expected range. Otherwise, you will still earn a basic APY if the price moves outside your range. By choosing Shark Fin products, you will 1. Enjoy short term subscriptions with good liquidity. 2. Earn industry-leading APYs and basic returns, with your principals well protected. The basic return is higher than those provided by fixed-income products. Even if market predictions go awry, not much valuable time will be lost. 3. Benefit from "bearish" products, which serve as hedging tools. The platform's risk management system works to eliminate risks and keep your assets safe. 4. Make easy subscriptions with just a few clicks. Shark Fin products are ideal for risk-averse, conservative investors seeking stable returns. This includes professional investors, high-net-worth individuals, and those focused on diversification. These products enable you to secure basic gains while potentially earning additional profits, as expected. HTX 7-day Shark Fin: Impressive Performance HTX's 7-day Shark Fin has set itself apart from other similar products in the market with its remarkable performance since its launch in September this year. As of November 30, HTX has successfully issued 12 phases of the 7-day Shark Fin, each experiencing strong demand. The details are as follows: *Source: HTX exchange The table highlights the continuous increase in the subscription quota and individual subscription limits of HTX Shark Fin products, with 100 million USDT and 1 million USDT, respectively, in the latest phase, respectively. Additionally, the basic APYs of the products have remained between 6%-8%. Each phase of the products has reportedly experienced rapid and full subscription shortly after opening, indicating high user acceptance and participation. HTX's 3-day Shark Fin: Higher APYs, Faster Settlements, Earlier Earnings According to an official announcement from HTX, the Shark Fin products with a 3-day term will debut soon, available for subscription starting December 11, 2023, at 12:00 (UTC). These shorter-term products facilitate more flexible investments and offer four investment options: bullish BTC, bearish BTC, bullish ETH, and bearish ETH. The upcoming subscription cycle for these 3-day products features a total subscription quota of 30 million USDT and an individual subscription limit of 1-200k USDT. Additionally, HTX offers bonuses for these products, with APYs ranging from 10% to 30%, lasting for an entire month. (Note: The actual APY may vary due to market fluctuations; specific yields will be based on the actual returns generated by the products.) The key difference between HTX 7-day and 3-day Shark Fin products lies in the asset lockup period. You may choose between these two types of products based on your research and analysis of market trends. If you have a more confident outlook on longer-term market trends, the 7-day products may be more suitable, as they reduce the need for frequent investment operations. However, if the market experiences significant swings and shows profitable short-term market trends, the 3-day products can offer greater flexibility. Please note both types of Shark Fin products offer basic returns. It is worth mentioning that HTX will introduce a new "Auto-Renewal" feature for Shark Fin products by the end of this year. This feature allows for automatic subscription to the same product using your principal from the previous cycle, eliminating the need for repetitive manual operations in each phase. Shark Fin generates its basic returns from various assets on the platform, such as loans and margins, while extra returns come from options, providing investors with the opportunity to enjoy higher APYs. HTX Earn manages these assets with strict risk control models at different levels to ensure asset safety and stable returns. In appreciation for users' long-term support, HTX Earn also offers additional bonuses for Shark Fin. HTX's 3-day Shark Fin opens for subscriptions from every Monday at 12:00 (UTC) to every Tuesday at 12:00 (UTC), while the 7-day Shark Fin, from every Thursday at 12:00 (UTC) to every Friday at 12:00 (UTC).

Minuteman Press International Inc

For nearly two decades, Paula and Keith Boyce have been the dynamic duo behind the Minuteman Press franchise in the vibrant town of King's Lynn, Norfolk, UK. Their journey has been nothing short of extraordinary, transforming their business from a traditional high street print shop into a cutting-edge powerhouse, delivering ingenious print solutions to a roster of prestigious corporate clients. The highlight of their journey came in 2021 when they received the coveted invitation to join the Minuteman Press International President’s Club, a testament to their unwavering dedication and relentless pursuit of excellence. Keith Boyce shares the nearly 20-year journey of Minuteman Press in King’s Lynn as well as the key lessons learned, growth insights for 2024, and advice for other owners. History of the Business According to Keith Boyce, “it all began in 2004 with the introduction to Minuteman Press International’s invaluable network of suppliers and partners.” With a focus on marketing, the Boyces conquered new markets, concentrating on delivering unparalleled service that shifted the conversation from price to value. This blueprint for success has powered year after year of remarkable growth, with one notable exception—2021 (during the height of the pandemic). So, what makes Minuteman King’s Lynn such a tour de force? Keith shares, “The system isn't a rigid framework; it's a catalyst for innovation. The transition from the bustling High Street to our present location at 12 Campbells Business Park was a thrilling exercise in adaptability, rooted in Minuteman Press' fundamental principles. Through open channels of communication, our entire team embraced opportunities.” Keith continues, “Then came the curveball – COVID-19. The world changed overnight, and our customers needed novel ways to engage with clients and expand their online presence. We already had a head start serving this market and seized this unique moment, igniting a spark of reinvention in the business, setting us apart from the competition. The reward? A robust financial position to propel us through this thrilling metamorphosis.” Growing the Business Today Today, Keith shares, “Our business is a perfect blend of tradition and innovation. Traditional core products still make up 50% of our operations. However, more recently in 2023 we took a bold leap forward by acquiring an apparel company. The remaining 50% is a whirlwind of online services, with virtual shops, print-on-demand, fulfilment, and drop-shipping at the forefront. These cutting-edge solutions are on everyone's lips as they adapt to the evolving business landscape. In 2023 and beyond, we are elated to provide ‘managed print services’ to 10 customers, with grand plans to expand to 20 in the coming year.

We are covering Google, social media, and a reinvigorated campaign to meet our existing, dormant, and new customers face to face.” Keith continues, “As Minuteman Head Office puts it, there's direct marketing, and then there's everything else! This is the fundamental tenet of our ongoing quest for year-on-year growth. We also strive to achieve this with careful consideration of our environmental footprint and the need to focus on sustainability, which is a big point of focus here in the UK.” Key Lessons Learned & Advice for Others Keith concludes by sharing, “The most gripping lessons we’ve learned in our 19-year journey are that marketing and nurturing new & existing customers is an unending adventure. It's about keeping focus on profitability and aligning your employees with stretching objectives and lofty goals.

Comcast and Mt. Hood Cable Regulatory Commission Commit $2 Million to Shrink Digital Divide in Multnomah County

Comcast Oregon / SW Washington

Comcast and the Mt. Hood Cable Regulatory Commission today announced a new $2 million investment in Free Geek, a leading local non-profit advancing economic equity through technology training and career building. This investment will help the most disconnected communities in Multnomah County get online and receive the resources, devices and technology education needed to advance digital skills for education and work, enhance economic mobility, and promote digital equity. “We see firsthand that the digital divide continues to be a persistent challenge for communities in Multnomah County. East Portland, Gresham, Fairview, Wood Village, and Troutdale are home to some of our most disconnected communities. More than 3,000 residents do not own a computer and many others don’t know how to use it effectively,” said Juan Muro, Executive Director, Free Geek. “This investment will ensure that these families have the same benefits as others and their children have access to online resources to be successful in school.” Free Geek will use the investment to help bridge the digital divide by working to connect more people to the internet and getting devices into the hands of people who need them. In addition, Free Geek will serve as consultants to enable community partners to expand their own digital equity programs in alignment with the region's Digital Equity Action Plan, which is focused on helping the most vulnerable communities in Portland and Multnomah County. "All Oregonians should be able to access the internet in order to connect with educational, health care, and economic opportunities," Governor Tina Kotek said. “Together, with public and private partners, we are working towards a common purpose of empowering individuals to get online, enhance digital skills, and advance economic mobility.” Free Geek will also bring additional capacity to its network of community partners as they work to remove barriers to broadband adoption. This includes addressing the lack of awareness about how to participate in the federal government’s Affordable Connectivity Program (ACP), which provides eligible low-income households with a credit of up to $30 per month toward their internet and/or mobile service – $75 per month on tribal lands, as well as the wider availability of free digital skills programs. “The MHCRC has a long history of advocating for digital equity through access to and use of telecommunications technology through public-private partnerships. We are excited to be able to partner with Comcast and Free Geek to bring this resource to the community at a time when funding and support for local efforts in urban communities is limited,” said Julia DeGraw, Chair, MHCRC. Today’s announcement is the latest example of investment in Oregon under Comcast’s Project UP program, a comprehensive initiative to advance digital equity and help build a future of unlimited possibilities. Earlier this year, the company invested $300,000 to advance digital equity and economic opportunity in the greater Portland area. At that time, Comcast and Free Geek joined together to launch a Lift Zone, which provides free WiFi at the new Center for Technology Education & Digital Equity, and scale a Digital Navigators program that will help connect more people in the area to the internet and teach them how to use it. “While high-speed internet is widely available in Multnomah County, the unfortunate reality is that not everyone has the resources and digital skills they need to benefit from it,” said Comcast Pacific Northwest Region Senior Vice President Rodrigo Lopez. “By continuing our partnership with Free Geek, we are creating a more prepared and inclusive workforce and ensuring that communities in the Greater Portland area are not left behind.” Over the last three years, Comcast has provided $5.8 million in financial and in-kind charitable contributions to Oregon nonprofits. These contributions support local community programs that help establish and promote the company’s Digital Equity Network in Oregon. The efforts also enable partner organizations to acquire technology equipment, provide digital skills trainings, and offer opportunities for community members to explore and train for careers in tech-related fields, or to develop the kinds of technology skills that can help them launch and grow their own businesses. Thanks to the ACP, eligible Comcast customers can get home Internet either through Comcast’s Internet Essentials or Internet Essentials Plus service tiers at no cost, once the federal credit is applied. Internet Essentials customers can also add a line of unlimited 5G cellular data ($45/month) through Xfinity Mobile for as little as $24.95/month, after the ACP benefit is applied. For more information about Project UP and Comcast’s commitment to education and digital equity, please visit https://corporate.comcast.com/impact/project-up. To apply for ACP or Internet Essentials visit www.Xfinity.com/free or www.internetessentials.com or call 1-855-846-8376 for English or 1-855-765-6995 for Spanish. About Mt. Hood Cable Regulatory Commission: Mt. Hood Cable Regulatory Commission represents the cities of Fairview, Gresham, Portland, Troutdale, and Wood Village, and Multnomah County. The Commission is comprised of eight volunteers who represent the communities’ cable communications technology needs and collaborate to ensure the region benefits from cable service franchise agreements. About Free Geek: Free Geek is a Portland-based non-profit organization with a mission to repurpose technology and discover sustainable solutions while providing educational resources. Its ultimate aim is to foster a vibrant community where individuals are empowered to unlock their full potential.

Ongoing receipt of international certifications, segmented across a diverse array of products, further underscores the Pomega's commitment to quality and international compliance. Expanding its portfolio, Kontrolmatik (IST:KONTR) is poised to establish a mass production facility in Polatlı/Ankara for High Voltage Gas Insulated Switchgear (GIS) under the Kontrolmatik (IST:KONTR) brand. With R&D, engineering, and prototype studies completed, international certification tests are expected to conclude by the 1st quarter of 2024, paving the way for mass production in the 2nd quarter of the same year. This marks a significant stride towards increasing electrification products and services. In a groundbreaking move, Kontrolmatik (IST:KONTR) has entered into a technology transfer and license agreement with Chint Electric Co Ltd for the engineering and production of the 245kV High Voltage Gas Insulated Switchgear. This strategic partnership not only marks a first-of-its-kind in Türkiye but is also poised to contribute substantially to the national economy through import substitution and export potential. Within the automation sector, Kontrolmatik's (IST:KONTR) Controlix is actively engaged in innovative IoT projects, including a remote meter reading pilot project across four metropolitan cities aimed at addressing water leakages in rural areas. The company is also making strides in industrial applications, such as the personnel fall tracking project in a chocolate factory, where Controlix's IoT technology enhances safety measures. In the transportation sector, Controlix has embarked on IoT product development for car-sharing companies, exploring alternative communication methods, in-vehicle network solutions, and vehicle information collection. Meanwhile, in the healthcare sector, the company's delivery of IoT modules and gateways to city hospitals has initiated an emergency monitoring project, enhancing security conditions within healthcare facilities. Controlix's global expansion is evident through the testing of meter reading products in the European market and the provision of solutions to diverse sectors such as healthcare, industrial facilities, hotels, and fuel stations. These ongoing projects exemplify Controlix's commitment to cutting-edge technology, strategic partnerships, and a comprehensive approach to solving challenges in various industries. As Kontrolmatik (IST:KONTR) continues to innovate and expand its horizons, it solidifies its position as a trailblazer in the convergence of green energy and automation, extending its influence from Türkiye to a global scale.

No Remote Identification, no flying. Remote ID Becomes Mandatory for Drone Pilots in the EU and will reshape the commercial use of drones

Dronetag

Most pilots will need drones equipped with the built-in RID feature or use RID transmitters attached to the drone body. There is not much time left to comply. In its latest official statement, EASA affirmed that RID will become mandatory for all pilots in the EU. All drones flying in the Specific category (advanced operation including BVLOS, over 25 kg drones, dropping material or flying higher than 120 meters, for example) and all drones with class marks operating in the Open category (mostly leisure drone activities and low-risk commercial activities) will be required to operate with an active and up-to-date RID system. There are two ways to satisfy this condition: flying a C-class drone with RID built-in (C1, C2, C3, C5, C6) or retrofitting older drone models with a RID module attached to the drone body. RID technologies allow authorities and any member of the public to identify drones remotely using a smartphone app or dedicated receiver. Identification data transmitted may include the drone’s serial number, operator registration number, remote pilot position or, if not available, take-off point, and drone’s location. The main goal of RID adoption is to enhance the safety of unmanned aircraft systems operations. Dronetag is Ready for the New Regulation For pilots who must purchase the required RID module for their drone to stay compliant in 2024, the Dronetag company has the solution ready. “Our Dronetag Beacon is one of the first devices listed on the EASA website as fully compliant with the new regulation,” describes Lukas Brchl, CEO of Dronetag, what his company offers. According to his words, pilots should not ignore the upcoming change: “To avoid problems that framed the start of RID in the USA earlier this year, drone operators should get their RID module in advance if they want to use their drones in 2024 safely. The production capacities of all suppliers are limited, so my only advice is to act now. Dronetag team put immense effort into scaling production to the maximum, but we already accept orders with deliveries at the end of January 2024.” Dronetag also offers an OEM solution tailored for drone manufacturers, seamlessly integrating Remote ID functionality into newly manufactured drones. The compact and cost-effective DRI module ensures immediate compliance, functioning effortlessly right out of the box. Furthermore, Dronetag extends its support to Drone manufacturers, facilitating the certification process with the EASA and guaranteeing compliance with the latest Remote ID regulations for drone sales within the EU. Devices manufactured by Dronetag offer compliance with new regulations and add advanced benefits for pilots in the form of hi-tech features such as flight logging, live flight data measuring and unmanned traffic management tools, to name a few. The Czech company offers a free, unique multiplatform application as a part of their end-to-end solution. According to customers in the US, Dronetag devices deliver one of the longest battery life on the market, packed in lightweight and miniature yet variable devices. Direct or Network RID? Based on Brchl’s recommendation, the Direct RID modules will be the most suitable devices for most pilots. In the Dronetag portfolio, such a device is called the Dronetag Beacon, which transmits identification data via Bluetooth to the drone's nearby surroundings. Professional pilots might appreciate advanced features offered by Network RID devices like Dronetag Mini, which will be compatible with U-Space operations planned in the near future. American Leader Expanding to Taiwan & Asia-Pacific Region Dronetag is currently active in more than 30 countries on four continents and is already coordinating flights across the globe. After similar FAA regulations for the USA went live in September 2023 ( Enforcement got extended for Six Months, literally hours before the rule efficiency, causing challenges for the whole drone market), Dronetag has become the leading supplier of RID devices for commercial drone operators in the USA. “Dronetag covers 70 % of RID device supplies to the American market. In November 2023, we closed a deal with the Drone Nerds, one of the leading drone distributors in the US, which strengthened our position. And we believe that even European drone pilots will find our devices handy and well-crafted,” shares Brchl. The list of recent successes goes on; Dronetag has also been selected by NATO - Defence Innovation Accelerator for the North Atlantic (DIANA) to its program, where the most exciting innovators developing groundbreaking technologies create more than just innovation; the goal is to bring real positive social impact. Dronetag is a manufacturer of Remote Identification devices and platforms for drone pilots and manufacturers. Its add-on transmitters enrich existing drones with a Remote ID capability, while modules are used by manufacturers who built them directly into their drones' internal circuits. Dronetag devices transmit identification and location data to other airspace participants via the Dronetag App, which offers advanced fleet management tools to professional pilots. The company’s vision of safer airspace relies on innovative unmanned traffic management and digitally visible drones.
