So, all signs point to Sei being on a strong upward path. Meme Moguls (MGLS) Anticipated Rally May Take It to $1 This Year Meme Moguls (MGLS) is gearing up for an exhilarating debut and promises so much including an intertwining play-to-earn feature, emulated investment simulations, and an engaging community to back it up. The $MGLS token, priced at $0.0027, not only acts as a native in-game asset but also functions as a governance token, amplifying its utility within the Meme Moguls ecosystem.

Crypto Experts Drum Support for Ripple (XRP) ETF: Pullix (PLX) Looks To Overtake Toncoin (TON) in the Bull Market

Pullix.io

After years of denials, the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) has finally approved the first spot Bitcoin ETF. With the approval, seen as a landmark moment by experts, other digital assets are expected to get spot ETFs soon. Experts have overwhelmingly supported Ripple (XRP), one of the top altcoins. Additionally, the news has put the altcoin market in a bullish state. One of the best cryptos to buy in the midst of the market upswing is Pullix (PLX). Watch how PLX does in comparison to Toncoin (TON). Experts Say Ripple (XRP) Will Get ETF Next The SEC granted accelerated licenses on January 10 for eleven Bitcoin spot exchange-traded funds (ETFs). Following the much-awaited clearance, a number of experts have urged Ripple (XRP) and predicted that it may be the next cryptocurrency to get a spot ETF. Panos Mekras, a popular crypto author and co-founder of Anodos Finance, has said it is only a matter of time before XRP gets an ETF. Zach Rector, a notable pro-XRP crypto YouTuber, also said that a Ripple ETF is inevitable. Amidst the community support, the Ripple coin has been on an uptrend. The price of Ripple coin has jumped by more than 10%. The XRP has increased above $0.6100 in the process. If XRP gets a spot ETF, then it could be one of the best cryptos to buy. Toncoin (TON) Remains Flat Despite 'Notcoin' Record Toncoin (TON) was one of the top altcoins in 2023, as it received support from Telegram. However, TON has been unable to replicate the same performance from last year. The price of Toncoin has ranged between $2 and $2.4 for most of 2024. Notcoin, one of the fastest Web 3 games, has launched on the Toncoin network. All this social interaction has supercharged Notcoin's viral growth. Notcoin has seen a surge in social interaction, which has seen Toncoin's activity increase. Despite this bullish news, the price of Toncoin has remained at $2.29. Pullix (PLX) To Become the Next Blue-Chip Crypto Project While Toncoin has struggled with gains, Pullix (PLX) has been a top performer, rallying by more than 100% to reach $0.08. Pullix has been bullish thanks to its hybrid trading platform. The DeFi project has created a single platform with the characteristics of both centralized finance (CeFi) and decentralized finance (DeFi). Users may now trade conventional and cryptocurrency assets in one location and take advantage of the whole market experience. DeFi swap is another tool that Pullix provides. The DeFi switch facilitates quicker, cheaper, and easier token trading. Its Automated Market Maker (AMM) mechanism guarantees quick and easy token exchanges. Access to numerous markets is the platform's greatest advantage. Traders can trade ETFs, commodities, and currency on the platform. It's also critical to keep in mind that Pullix's PLX token, which serves as the exchange's foundation, is the foundation of the platform. With links to several markets and a cutting-edge platform, Pullix is positioned to be the best cryptocurrency to invest in. Because of this, PLX is considered the best cryptocurrency to invest in in 2024; analysts predict a 50x price increase. Prior to that, the ERC20 coin can be purchased for a low price of $0.08. In Conclusion The altcoin may see a comeback in 2024 as the cryptocurrency market enters a bullish phase and the XRP ETF gains traction. Due to its cutting-edge platform and promising market, Pullix, one of the newest competitors, hopes to surpass Toncoin. You have a fantastic opportunity to get involved in what might become the next blue-chip cryptocurrency before the trend takes off. For this reason, one of the best cryptocurrency to invest in for the 2024 bull market is PLX. Visit Pullix Join The Pullix Communities Pullix is a new DeFi protocol that is launching a hybrid exchange that will seamlessly blend the strengths of centralized and decentralized exchanges into one unified platform. Serving as the pioneer of “Trade-to-Earn” our native token $PLX empowers the community to earn a portion of the daily revenues generated by the exchange.

Consumer Edge Data Reveals Most Verticals Achieved Positive Global Growth in H2 2023

Consumer Edge

Data from Consumer Edge (CE), a provider of global consumer data-driven insights, uncovers winners and losers across the globe in H2 2023. The report reveals which key industries experienced gains across the US, UK and EU. Notably, the most discretionary categories such as luxury and department stores were absent from the list. Online retailers, pet products/services, discount/club stores, ground transportation, health products/services grocery and limited-service restaurants were the only industries that grew sales across all geographies. “In reviewing our global spending data, the CE Insight Center uncovers winners and losers among key industries during the second half of 2023,” said Michael Gunther, Vice President and Head of Insights at Consumer Edge. “These takeaways highlight shifts in consumer behavior and can help companies develop specific themes and targets for 2024.” Online retailers stood out on the upside, as growth accelerated into H2 following a solid performance in the beginning of the year. Luxury: Consumer spending on luxury items declined across all three geographies. As inflation continues to squeeze real incomes and aspirational shoppers pull back on particularly pricey items, luxury became the worst performer out of all the industries in the US and UK and the second worst in the EU (second only to travel). This decreased appetite for direct-to-consumer luxury spilled over into the full-price department store space across the globe. Apparel, Accessories and Footwear posted mixed results, as strength in fast fashion offset softness in the other categories. Consumer spending at fast fashion brands grew in the US, UK and EU, as the challenging macroeconomic environment and strained budgets generated increased interest in more affordable items. Consumer spend growth was negative globally for the higher-ticket women’s apparel/accessories sub-industry. Restaurant spending growth decelerated from H1 to H2, although both full-service and limited-service ended 2023 on a positive note. The average check increased compared to 2022 as food and labor inflation persists. Consumers visited limited-service restaurants more in 2023 than in 2022, but trips declined for their full-service peers, reflecting an environment of strained consumer budgets and trade-down behavior. Home and Garden sales in the US declined in H2 2023 as high mortgage rates and limited supply continued to pressure housing market activity. Sales increased modestly in the UK and EU, although growth softened versus H1 2023, consistent with many other areas of the consumer economy. “Brands can identify impactful shifts in consumer behavior and new emerging trends by reviewing transaction data,” Gunther said. “By leveraging this data, companies can make more informed data-backed business decisions in the year ahead.” Insights Methodology The Consumer Edge Insight Center (CEIC) provides timely insight into global spending trends for consumer industries and individual brands built from transaction data across the US, UK and Continental Europe. About Consumer Edge Consumer Edge (CE) provides data-driven insights focused on the global consumer. Founded in 2009 by CEO Bill Pecoriello, CE is a data and insights as a service (IaaS) company delivering unparalleled views into global consumer spending behavior coupled with deep industry knowledge and analytical expertise. CE solutions provide key stakeholders across the corporate and investment landscapes with best-in-class tools to enable enhanced strategic decision-making.

Simplifing Global Payments – Grineo Integrates Fiat and Digital Currencies

Rev Up Marketers

Grineo, the FinTech start-up that aims to introduce digital currencies to the physical world, announced the launch of its highly-anticipated "debit card & wallet App" exclusively in Australia by early 2024. The app and card allow users to store and trade digital currencies as well as spending them like cash in stores or withdrawing as cash from ATMs, bringing much-needed adoption to the world of digital currencies. The founders of Grineo first came up with the idea during a business meeting in Melbourne back in 2022, where they saw the immense potential of stablecoins as a store of value for investors. They also realized that Australia significantly lagged its peers when it comes to the number of digital start-ups per person, the amount of investment in digital asset companies, and tech-skilled professionals. However, according to their estimations, if Australia manages to adapt blockchain and digital assets despite these issues, it will be able to save A$160 per person per year on international transaction fees and up to 80 hours per a small business on compliance and administrative costs. Grineo officially launches in Q1 2024, becoming the catalyst for this much-needed change in the Australian market. Grineo users can spend digital currencies with no extra exchange fees wherever major cards are accepted, with conversion taking place in real-time at point-of-sale. With thousands of users in the waitlist from Sydney, Melbourne, Perth, and Brisbane, Grineo continues to expand its reach across the whole of Australia. “The Australian market size in terms of transaction revenue is considered very niche for a digital currency card provider accounting only for $17M of revenue annually,” said Olesia Kostieieva, Grineo Chief Expansion Officer. “Our philosophy is that payments in digital currency should be available for everyone everywhere.” With Grineo, consumers can unlock the power of digital currencies by opening a free account and gaining access to a physical card in just a few business days. They can also receive an immediate virtual card for instant use. All transactions take place on the Grineo platform, without any middleman processes slowing things down. Swapping assets are arranged easier or more affordable. The platform boasts a host of features, from customizable notifications to cutting-edge asset management tools. And behind the scenes, Grineo is revolutionizing the financial system by giving digital currencies the same level playing field as traditional currencies, including the Australian dollar. So, less limitations and more endless possibilities with the Grineo payment app. “It is an all-in-one application,” Kostieieva said. “Because Grineo stores your digital currency alongside your traditional currency, there’s no need to go back and forth with your bank or top up via bank transfer and wait several days for it to settle.” But what sets Grineo apart is its commitment to transparency and low fees. With exclusive rates and automatic conversion at the best possible live rates, users could save a significant amount of money on overseas transactions. No-fee ATM withdrawals are also available. Plus, with Grineo's partnership with regulated card companies and banks, users can trust that their assets are secure and compliant. According to Kostieieva, the use of stablecoins for purchasing goods and services may still pose some challenges. However, with the revolutionary Grineo platform, one can effortlessly utilize USDT in Sydney or seamlessly compensate others in Ethereum. As Grineo prepared to enter the Australian market, they maintained a close relationship with regulators in Australia where they had already launched in the summer of 2023 their start-up regulated by AUSTRAC. This designation gave Grineo access to essential networks and systems, further solidifying their position as a potential leader in the digital currency space. In addition, Grineo collaborates with regulated card companies and bank partners to offer a comprehensive range of traditional and digital currency payment services throughout its prime market in Australia. All while upholding the utmost standards for security and compliance. Kostieieva shared that the high standards set by regulatory players only serve to inspire and motivate their team, as they feel a great responsibility to ensure the success of Grineo. With their sights set on revolutionizing the way we spend and exchange currency, Grineo is ready to make its mark on the FinTech world.
