New Verticals Catapult Forever Network into ComScore Top 25 US Media Rankings

Basketball Forever

Fueled by its new verticals for football, baseball and hockey, Forever Network, one of the fastest-growing and most engaged independent sports content brands in the world, announced today that it is now ranked in the Top 25 of ComScore’s US Media outlet rankings. Debuting at No. 24, Forever Network is ranked among media giants like Warner Bros (#1), Walt Disney (#2) and Comcast (#4). The company also marked its entrance on the list as the eighth top sports media company accompanied by sports industry stalwarts like the NBA (No. 3), NFL (No. 7), Barstool Sports (No. 11) and the WWE (No. 15). “Getting ranked so high by ComScore legitimizes the work we have put in since establishing a North American presence at the beginning of this year,” said Alex Sumsky, CEO and co-founder of Forever Network. “We couldn’t be here without our devoted team and their commitment to user experience, ensuring we are people’s go-to source and have the best content for all things basketball, football, hockey and baseball. This also provides us with a significant benchmark for measuring our success as we continue to establish ourselves as a major player in the US media market.” Including its first vertical, Basketball Forever, Forever Network has earned 3.6 billion total impressions and 356 million engagements year-to-date across its network of sports social media channels. Football Forever has been the most popular new vertical, garnering 528 million impressions since its start in April. Dugout Forever has earned 198 million impressions since its launch in March and Hockey Forever has earned 282 million since its May launch. “The popularity we have achieved and growth we have experienced since the start of this year is just the tip of the iceberg,” said Basketball Forever Chief Strategy Officer Nick Kelland. “With plans for our new soccer vertical to debut in July, we estimate that our network of channels will capture more than eight billion impressions before the year ends.” Forever Network closed a $4 million raise earlier this year to expand in North America and develop new verticals. Along with the new verticals, another key point of the raise was the development of Forever Network’s proprietary free-to-play and real-money games, V.O.A.T., Hot Hands and Streaker, which are on track to launch later this year. ABOUT BASKETBALL FOREVER Basketball Forever was founded in 2015 with a mission to celebrate the game and embrace its ability to unite people from all over the world.

WagerWire Establishes Fantasy and Media Verticals as Independent Brands Under Parent Company Wire Industries, Inc.

WagerWire

Wire Industries, Inc., a technology and media company that owns and operates sports betting marketplace WagerWire, announced today the formal establishment of FantasyWire and the Wire Media Group as independent verticals. This expansion allows the company to operate fantasy sports products and other types of gaming independently of sports betting, while accelerating growth of its media and affiliate segments. “This is a natural evolution of our business that we have been planning ever since we founded the company in 2021 as the corporate entity Wire Industries Inc.,” said Zach Doctor, Co-Founder and CEO. “Our sports betting marketplace WagerWire has demonstrated that players love the optionality provided by a liquid and open market for active bets, while delivering significant player engagement value and cost-effective user acquisition for our partner sportsbooks. Now, we’re introducing this same economic principle to fantasy sports and other types of gaming.” FantasyWire is now a separate consumer brand operating side-by-side with WagerWire under the Wire Technologies umbrella. FantasyWire is powering the first-ever DFS pick ‘em marketplace on RealTime Fantasy Sports (RTS), and with trading also available on the WagerWire app. On the RTS marketplace, players can post their line-ups for sale at any time or buy line-ups in progress using tools like suggested prices and deal scores. The technology behind FantasyWire was nominated for Best Fantasy Innovation of 2024 by the Fantasy Sports Gaming Association (FSGA). The Wire Media Group (WMG) encompasses the company’s media network, The Wire, and affiliate marketing division, The Sports Influencers. The group was launched in 2023 by creating original content that immediately catapulted WagerWire into the national spotlight, amassing hundreds of millions of views across social platforms and capturing the attention of ESPN, CNBC, USA Today, and the New York Post. In its first year of operation, WMG was shortlisted for a Hashtag Sports Award for Best Sports Betting Content and was shortlisted again in 2024 for Best X Presence, along with FOX Sports and the NBA. Under WMG, The Wire is a content collective of top-tier creators and networks as well as original in-house content, with partners including Betr Media, Pro League Network (PLN), The Hammer Betting Network, East Coast Sports Investors, and The Gaming Juice. Content spans sports, pop culture, fantasy, sports betting, sports business, and regulatory developments. “Media is an important piece of our ecosystem as it ties all our offerings together and drives a powerful flywheel effect,” said Travis Geiger, Co-Founder and Chief Experience Officer. “Our marketplace generates a never-ending stream of interesting line-ups and bet slips that we leverage as a source of viral content, leading to organic consumer awareness and more incoming action, and finding the next big story.” Geiger continued, “Then with our creator partners, The Wire utilizes purpose-built A.I. production services to aggregate massive amounts of daily content to generate snackable clips, search-optimized articles, and data visualizations to amplify discoverability and cross-pollinate different audiences.” The company’s rapidly growing affiliate business, The Sports Influencers, also operates under the WMG division. Through a diversified strategy of social media services, events, and direct conversions, the company drives sign-ups to multiple affiliate partners, including FanDuel, Caesars, BetMGM and PrizePicks. WMG was shortlisted for SBC North America’s Sports Betting Affiliate of the Year award in 2023 and 2024. Wire Technologies is also building additional gaming verticals including PonyWire, a marketplace for horse racing bets, ContestWire for entries in survivors, pools, and brackets, and DataWire, its in-house data department developing proprietary pricing models and betting tools, as well as insightful content and data visualizations.

Notcoin Continues To Freefall! Could 100x Breakout Presale Be The Answer For Bitcoin Whales?

Total Media

The continued fall of Notcoin has recently had the cryptocurrency market talking. It has recently seen its value plummet due to various factors, including market saturation and diminishing investor confidence. Amid this turmoil, Raboo offers a glimmer of hope with its 100x Breakout Presale, drawing the eyes of Bitcoin whales searching for lucrative new ventures. This presale isn't just a potential lifeline for distressed crypto investors; it's poised to catalyze significant shifts within the market. Read on as we discuss how Raboo's strategic move could redefine investment trajectories in the ever-evolving crypto landscape. Notcoin continues to freefall Notcoin has recently experienced significant market fluctuations, with a sharp decline of about 40% over the last month. This reflects the high volatility and speculative nature that often characterizes Play-to-Earn and meme-driven cryptocurrencies like Notcoin​​​​. These market dynamics highlight several issues impacting Notcoin's position in the cryptocurrency sector. The rapid changes in its value can erode investor confidence and make it challenging for long-term stability. If Notcoin fails to innovate or stabilize its market presence, it could face diminishing investor interest over time, which could have long-term detrimental effects on its valuation and utility. The broader impact on the market and investor trust revolves around this high volatility and the speculative nature of assets like Notcoin, which can lead to significant price fluctuations based on investor sentiment and market trends. Bitcoin's recent market performance Bitcoin's recent market downturn can be attributed to a few significant factors. With a 12.4% decline in the last month, one major contributor has been the large-scale selling by the German government, which has offloaded substantial Bitcoin holdings, triggering price volatility. A general slowdown in whale trading activity has also played a role. These whales have reduced their transactions drastically, indicating a cautious approach, which usually leads to decreased market liquidity and lowered prices​​. This downturn has led Bitcoin whales to explore other investment avenues, seeking higher returns with lower price volatility. New and promising projects like Raboo's 100x breakout presale are drawing attention as alternative investment opportunities. Bitcoin's fluctuations influence the broader crypto market, impacting investment strategies and the financial dynamics within the crypto space. Such shifts underscore the interconnected nature of the market, where significant moves by influential entities or changes in a leading cryptocurrency like Bitcoin can ripple across the entire ecosystem​​​. Could 100x breakout presale be the answer for Bitcoin whales? Raboo's 100x breakout presale has captured the attention of major investors, including Bitcoin whales, thanks to its innovative use of AI technology and a robust community-driven approach. The presale highlights features such as AI-enhanced user interactions and a Post-to-Earn model, which incentivises user participation and content creation. Now in its fourth stage, priced at an attractive $0.0048, Raboo has experienced a 60% increase since its initial price offering of $0.003, with over $1.6 million raised, 10,000 registered users, and 2,900 token holders. This impressive growth showcases its appeal as a dynamic player in the evolving meme coin sector. The strategic maneuvers behind Raboo's presale include targeted marketing campaigns that leverage social media platforms and crypto forums to enhance visibility and attract a diverse investor base, distinguishing it from competitors like Notcoin, which has struggled amid market volatility and investor skepticism. Raboo's successful presale strategy contrasts Notcoin's challenges and positions it as a compelling investment opportunity for Bitcoin whales seeking high returns in the memecoin market. Conclusion As Notcoin navigates its market challenges, Raboo's 100x breakout presale emerges as a beacon for investors, especially Bitcoin whales seeking high-growth prospects. This shift could redefine investment strategies within the cryptocurrency sphere, illustrating the impact of innovative presales on broader market dynamics. Investors are advised to keep a close eye on Raboo's ongoing presale, which promises to influence the market's future trajectory and offer substantial returns. This pivotal moment could reshape how investments flow in the volatile crypto landscape. You can participate in the Raboo presale here.

Delivra Health Brands Inc.

Delivra Health Brands Inc. (TSX-V:DHB) CEO Gord Davey discusses the company’s recent expansion efforts in the Middle East during an interview with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion.

He emphasized the significant market potential in the UAE, driven by a growing population and widespread sleep issues, which Dream Water aims to address. Looking ahead, Davey mentioned ongoing efforts to expand into additional territories in the Middle East, although he did not specify which countries due to pending regulatory approvals.
