HTX Liquid Restaking Airdrops Millions of MERL Tokens - More Rewards on the Horizon

HTX

HTX's innovative Liquid Restaking event is firing on all cylinders, with the distribution of millions of MERL tokens from the first project reward pool – Merlin Chain (MERL). This MERL airdrop is exclusive to the LRS-BTC holders in the event, specifically 50% of participants' LRS-BTC points are redeemed as MERL tokens, with the remaining portion to be distributed in BounceBit tokens. As of press, the initial 50% of MERL tokens users earned from the event were fully airdropped to winners' Spot accounts on April 22. Get ready for upcoming airdrops from exciting projects like BounceBit, EigenLayer, Puffer, and more by joining Liquid Restaking now! HTX will be adding even more airdrop rewards soon to Liquid Restaking, so early participants can maximize their gains. HTX Follows Same On-chain Distribution Rules for MERL Rewards with Initial 50% Airdrop in April Who gets rewards from this airdrop? Anyone who participated in HTX Liquid Restaking and earned LRS-BTC points between February 29 and April 14, 16:00 (UTC) qualifies for the airdrop. Vesting Rules and Redemption Ratio Rules of HTX's MERL airdrop are subject to Merlin Chain airdrop rules: Investors who stake BTC in the Merlin Chain restaking will receive the project points daily by April 14, 2024, which can be redeemed for MERL tokens. The airdropped tokens will be unlocked in batches: 50% in the first month, 25% in the second month, and then unlocking will be completed over six months with 12.5%/6.25%/3.125%/3.125% distribution. Redemption Ratio at HTX Liquid Restaking: 3.5089 LRS-BTC = 1 MERL (Rewards from 1 BTC staked per day ≈ 142.5 MERL). Individual Airdrop: MERL to be airdropped to an eligible HTX user = User's LRS-BTC points received during the event by April 14 * 0.5 / Redemption ratio. Simpler Participation in HTX Liquid Restaking with Same High Rewards as On-chain Restaking Currently, the airdrop rewards through HTX Liquid Restaking closely mirror on-chain rewards. For example, enabling 2 BTC for HTX Liquid Restaking is like staking 1 BTC in Merlin Chain and 1 BTC in BounceBit. With a 1,000-point-per-day distribution, you'd get 500 points from Merlin Chain (with 1 BTC) daily, translating to roughly 142.5 MERL tokens a day. For on-chain restaking, 1 BTC yields around 142.8 MERL tokens per day. The two restaking methods result in similar APRs: 88.02% and 88.24%, respectively. Please note the timing of future reward redemption will depend on the on-chain project's initial airdrop schedule. According to HTX's official announcement, to facilitate users' future reward claims, LRS points will be upgraded to corresponding project points, and redemption will be supported on the event page. HTX to Unmask Additional Airdrops at Liquid Restaking: Greater Airdrops for Earlier Participation HTX stands out as the first exchange to offer users barrier-free access to on-chain restaking. This innovative event, featuring high returns, free claims, and more flexibility, offers an over $1 billion quota and increasing rewards for participants to win big.

The foundation of the AI Revolution Isn’t What You Think

MarketJar

Artificial intelligence (AI) is no longer just a buzzword; it’s quite literally transforming the world as we know it. Anyone with a smartphone or access to the internet now has AI at their fingertips, but few realize the crucial role critical minerals play in the AI revolution. Critical minerals like copper, lithium and even uranium, are the foundation modern technology is built upon. They are an essential ingredient in everything from electric vehicles and smart grids to smartphones and batteries, sending demand skyrocketing in recent years. The influx of new AI data centers being built across the globe is also driving demand for critical minerals to new highs. Amazon plans to spend almost US$150 billion over the next 15 years to build and operate data centers around the world, while Microsoft will spend nearly $6 billion on AI data centers in the UK and Japan. The problem is, the aggressive pace of AI adoption and the rising number of energy-sucking AI data centers is putting additional strain on global supply chains that are already stretched thin by net-zero goals. Add to that years of underinvestment in new mines and concentrated supply in high-risk regions, and it becomes clear that supply will struggle to keep pace with the rising demand. As critical minerals become scarcer, their value increases and according to a new report from The Oregon Group, it could trigger a 10-year supercycle. Artificial Intelligence and the next Critical Mineral Supercycle The Oregon Group is an investment research team founded by independent capital markets experts, Anthony Milewski and Justin Cochrane, that provides insights about the macro so you can invest in the micro. In a world grappling with climate change, disruptive technologies, and geopolitical shifts, The Oregon Group navigates investors through the complexities of global trends and opportunities, helping them seize the moment amidst the risks and rewards of today's dynamic landscape. The company’s latest report, titled “Artificial Intelligence and the next Critical Mineral Supercycle,” examines key trends affecting the growth across the sector, including: The increasing demand for critical minerals driven by the rapid expansion of artificial intelligence applications. Challenges faced by energy grids due to the surge in electricity demand from data centers and AI technologies. The role of nuclear energy and uranium in meeting the growing power needs of data centers and AI. The significance of renewable energy sources and their critical mineral requirements in achieving net-zero targets. Supply and demand dynamics of essential minerals such as copper and tin in the context of AI and technological advancements. As AI adoption continues to surge, its intricate relationship with critical minerals becomes increasingly apparent. In "Artificial Intelligence and the next Critical Mineral Supercycle," The Oregon Group offers a deep dive into the pivotal relationship between AI and critical minerals. With insights into demand trends, energy grid challenges, and mineral supply dynamics, this report provides a clear roadmap for navigating this evolving landscape.

The Bitcoin Halving Complete! Investors are Lining Up to Buy Bitcoin, Ethereum, and New Crypto Raboo

Total Media

The Bitcoin halving was the recent trending crypto market news, which was concluded over the weekend. What does this mean for Bitcoin (BTC) and Ethereum (ETH), and also, what impact will the Bitcoin halving have on altcoins like Raboo (RABT), currently in presale at a price of just $0.0036? Bitcoin (BTC): Halving supply shock could see prices skyrocket The Bitcoin halving happens every four years and has traditionally triggered big shifts in the crypto market. This occurrence reduces the reward for mining new blocks by half, slowing the rate at which new Bitcoins (BTC) are created and distributed into circulation. The halving is intended to reduce inflation and preserve the cryptocurrency's value over time. Previous halving events suggest a pattern of bullish behavior in the months after a halving. The market has frequently shown significant value growth following the halving, which can be attributed to a scarcity shock. These cycles stimulate speculative trading and investor interest, resulting in greater market activity and price volatility. Each cycle generates a surge of media attention and analysis, influencing both experienced and new market participants. Ethereum (ETH): A reaction to Bitcoin halving cycles Ethereum (ETH) faces indirect consequences during Bitcoin halving events due to increased market interest and investment in cryptocurrencies. Typically, Ethereum benefits from the increased crypto market news exposure, resulting in favorable results. Traders and investors frequently regard Ethereum as a companion asset to Bitcoin, which may also gain in value during these periods. The increased speculative trading affects Ethereum as well, adding to price volatility. However, Ethereum's reaction is impacted not only by Bitcoin's movements but also by its own advancements and larger market conditions. This interconnection highlights the complexities of Ethereum's activity in the cryptocurrency ecosystem amid Bitcoin's critical halving events. Raboo (RABT): Stability through ICOs amidst Bitcoin halving volatility Raboo (RABT) is a newcomer to the cryptocurrency industry, strategically releasing its Initial Coin Offering (ICO) during a period of heightened crypto market news attention focused on the upcoming Bitcoin halving. Unlike existing cryptocurrencies, which may see major price fluctuation during such halving times, ICOs such as Raboo's offer smooth sailing! This is because ICOs are driven mostly by the project's potential and investor enthusiasm, rather than market factors related to mining dynamics. Raboo's focus on developing its unique AI-driven meme platform presents a compelling opportunity for investors looking for new ventures less affected by the fluctuations associated with the Bitcoin halving. This potentially offers a more stable path in the often-turbulent crypto market. Conclusion The crypto market news has been heavily dominated by the Bitcoin halving, which took place over the weekend. Along with violent volatility, flash crashes, and widespread speculation, it is difficult to know exactly what to do, though history shows that Bitcoin (BTC) and Ethereum (ETH) both increased in value after the halving. Hedging against volatility during this time is a great investment move, which is why structured investments like the Raboo presale are the way to go. The presale has already raised an incredible $850K in just three weeks and is set to return 233% at its conclusion. You can participate in the Raboo presale here.

The completion is part of Comcast’s ongoing expansion in the Midwest where Comcast is also expanding into Paola/Hillsdale. “The Kelly-Toland Administration recognizes that building reliable broadband services is essential for healthy communities throughout the state,” Lieutenant Governor and Secretary of Commerce David Toland said. “With the completion of this project, the Spring Hill community now has the resources needed to stay connected and engaged – and help drive economic development.” "The City of Spring Hill joins Comcast in celebrating the completion of this investment in our community. It will support workforce development, education and greater access to high-speed internet for our residents. This was a big priority of this administration from the start, and I’m glad to see it through to becoming a reality. It also improves our internet infrastructure in a way that is attractive to businesses interested in growing here," said Mayor Joe Berkey, City of Spring Hill. “I am grateful for Comcast’s commitment to expanding broadband access to Spring Hill and also their continued commitment to sponsoring other Spring Hill community events throughout the year.” To celebrate the expansion of Xfinity services to the City of Spring Hill, Comcast will donate $5,000 to the Spring Hill Education Foundation and will host an ‘Xfinity On Tour’ event during the Spring Hill Recreation Center Daffodil Days on April 20 from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. CST at the Spring Hill Learning Academy at 300 E. Street. This free, family-oriented community event provides residents the opportunity to learn more about Comcast services, answer questions, and take advantage of exclusive offers. You can also stop into the nearest Xfinity store to learn more. For Spring Hill residents, this expansion means access to all Xfinity Internet service offerings with speeds faster than 1 Gig and advanced WiFi technology from powerful gateways capable of delivering reliable and consistent connections for real-time activities like gaming, live streaming, and video conferencing with ultra-low lag. Residents will also have access to the Xfinity X1 video platform, Xfinity Home, Comcast’s professionally installed home security solution, and Xfinity Mobile, one of the nation’s fastest growing mobile services that can save customers hundreds of dollars a year on their mobile bills, and is top ranked in customer satisfaction. “Reliable high-speed internet is essential in today’s digital economy, which is why Comcast continues its commitment to connect more Johnson County region families and businesses to the moments that matter most,” said Kalyn Hove, Comcast Midwest Regional Senior Vice President. “By establishing the best broadband infrastructure today, we are securing the economic prosperity of these communities for tomorrow.” For local businesses, Comcast Business offers a suite of connectivity, cybersecurity, managed solutions and Comcast Business Mobile products designed specifically for their employee’s needs.

Comcast Business has been consistently recognized by industry analysts and associations as a leader and innovator, and one of the fastest growing providers of Ethernet services. “We purchased The Bean in Spring Hill nearly three years ago. The most difficult part of doing business was little to no access to internet and proper speeds needed to run our business,” stated Brad Killen, CEO of The Bean. “When I spoke with Comcast Business it was a quick YES to help us. Before switching to Comcast, our WiFi went out every other day and we were running on the slowest speeds. We are now finally getting normal speeds and could not be happier with the service. Everyday dozens of people work, take meetings, or calls at The Bean and this upgrade keeps people coming back for more.” Comcast Corporation (Nasdaq: CMCSA) is a global media and technology company.
