HANetf Holdings Limited

Tom Bailey, head of research at HANetf, discussed the impact of AI on the commodities market. He noted that since 2023, AI has significantly influenced market investment, especially through big tech companies like Microsoft. Bailey highlighted that AI's increasing energy demand, especially for AI data centres, necessitates a shift towards more robust power generation methods, including nuclear energy. He pointed out that nuclear energy is seen as a sustainable solution due to its low carbon emissions. Bailey discussed the growing demand for commodities such as uranium and copper. He explained that AI data centres and the broader energy transition, including electric vehicles and renewable energy, drive this demand. HANetf has developed ETFs focused on uranium and copper miners, through which investors can leverage these trends. Th broader Uranium Miners ETF, launched two years ago, includes major and minor players, while a more recent Junior Uranium Miners ETF focuses on smaller companies. Additionally, the Copper Miners ESG ETF, which emphasises pure-play copper mining and includes an ESG screening element, has performed well. Bailey concluded by noting the strong performance of these ETFs, with the Copper Miners ESG ETF up 35% year-to-date and the broad Uranium Miners ETF up 15%.

A New Era for On-Chain Airdrops! HTX Liquid Restaking: Your Gateway to Effortless Airdrop Rewards

HTX

Following the recent distribution of the first Merlin Chain (MERL) Airdrop, Restaking has once again taken center stage as a highly sought-after sector among investors in the crypto sphere. HTX Liquid Restaking has distinguished itself in this airdrop event by adhering to on-chain airdrop rules, offering lucrative yields, and providing individual users with the opportunity to receive up to 112,816 MERL tokens as airdrop rewards. Once more, these qualities have earned HTX praise and recognition from the investment community. As the first exchange to introduce Restaking services, HTX Liquid Restaking has revolutionized how users participate in on-chain airdrops. With features like zero-threshold, no-staking, and no-lockup, it provides unparalleled convenience and flexibility, making it effortless for users to claim on-chain rewards. No Lock-up, More Flexibility! What Else Makes Liquid Restaking on HTX the Preferred Choice? Restaking, at its core, involves re-staking already staked crypto assets to earn additional rewards. HTX Liquid Restaking, however, breaks away from the conventional model of restaking, ushering in a groundbreaking new dimension for airdrops. In comparison to on-chain staking, HTX Liquid Restaking eliminates the need for staking and lock-up assets, offering the following distinct advantages: 1. Easy Accessibility: Traditional staking models typically require users to lock up a specific amount of crypto assets in a smart contract for a set period to earn corresponding rewards. HTX's zero-staking, no-lockup model, represented by Liquid Restaking, revolutionizes the staking landscape by eliminating these limitations. Users can join the event at any time without the need to pre-lock their assets, significantly reducing the entry barrier. 2. Flexibility and Liquidity: HTX's zero-staking, no-lockup model guarantees users full control over their assets. With HTX Liquid Restaking available for both spot and futures accounts, users have the freedom to withdraw and trade their funds at any time without facing lock-up constraints. This flexibility empowers users to adjust their investment strategies according to market conditions, enabling them to seize opportunities more effectively. 3. Reduced Risk: Users do not need to perform complex on-chain transfers, mitigating potential asset risks linked to improper management of on-chain wallets. 4. Enhanced User Participation: HTX's zero-staking, no-lockup model allows participants to join the event at any time and earn rewards effortlessly, boosting user enthusiasm and investment drive. Conversely, traditional staking models, which often require prolonged asset lock-up, make participants more cautious and hesitant. Therefore, HTX's Liquid Restaking, characterized by its zero-staking, no-lockup model, is uniquely designed to cater to user needs. This approach empowers participants to join the event at any time and effortlessly earn airdrop rewards, free from the constraints of asset lock-ups. This truly provides participants with a straightforward participation experience. Trustworthy Liquid Restaking Projects, Carefully Selected by the HTX Team Besides zero-threshold and flexibility, HTX Liquid Restaking boasts a host of other key advantages: Firstly, HTX Liquid Restaking removes the limitations that typically require users to lock up their assets for a period when participating in staking under the traditional model. Users can freely withdraw and trade their crypto assets at any given time, unaffected by lock-up periods. Furthermore, all on-chain projects available in HTX Liquid Restaking undergo meticulous selection by the platform's investment research team. This ensures the security of participants' assets and transaction transparency, enabling users to feel safe and secure when participating in the event. Most importantly, HTX Liquid Restaking offers users airdrop rewards equivalent to those from direct on-chain participation. Supported by the guarantee of asset safety and without affecting users' fund liquidity, the event also offers them an opportunity to realize wealth appreciation by securing additional earnings. In summary, HTX Liquid Restaking, a groundbreaking model, heralds a new era for users to effortlessly claim airdrop rewards. With zero-threshold, no-staking, and no-lockup features, it offers unparalleled convenience and flexibility to investors. By participating in the event with a simple "one-click", users can harvest lucrative rewards without missing out on any benefits of the on-chain restaking sector.

ISC Reports Strong First Quarter Growth in 2024, Launches Five-Year Growth Strategy

Information Services Corp

ISC CEO Shawn Peters joined Steve Darling from Proactive to discuss the company's impressive financial performance in the first quarter of 2024, coinciding with the launch of its ambitious five-year growth plan. The company recorded a revenue of $56.4 million, marking a 15 percent increase compared to the first quarter of 2023. This growth is attributed to fee adjustments within the Saskatchewan Registries division implemented in the third quarter of 2023, as well as consistent customer and transaction growth in the Services’ Regulatory Solutions division and the advancement of project work on both existing and new solutions in the Technology Solutions division. Peters also highlighted that the Adjusted EBITDA for the quarter rose to $19.4 million, up from $14.5 million in the same period last year. This increase was primarily driven by the aforementioned fee adjustments in the Registry Operations’ Saskatchewan Registries division, in line with the Extension Agreement and annual CPI adjustments. Additionally, the Technology Solutions division saw an increase in its Adjusted EBITDA, which grew due to increased revenue from ongoing and new solution definition and implementation contracts. The Adjusted EBITDA margin significantly improved to 34.5 percent, up from 29.5 percent in the first quarter of 2023, reflecting the positive impact of the pricing strategies implemented.
