Michael Saylor Says Bitcoin Is Refreshing; KangaMoon Announces New Partnership While Pepe Soars

Kangamoon

Recently, Michael Saylor excited the crypto community with a new Bitcoin (BTC) tweet. Meanwhile, KangaMoon (KANG) announced a major partnership with RaidSharks. Many analysts hint that this Stage 5 presale star may become the next $0.5 meme coin in 2024. Another meme coin making headlines is Pepe (PEPE), recently listed on Coinbase. Michael Saylor With a Bullish Bitcoin Statement Bitcoin (BTC) has been making waves in the crypto market. Over the last week alone, the price of BTC increased from $63,785 to $64,431. The Bitcoin market cap surged from $1.26T to $1.28T during that time. The former CEO of MicroStrategy, Michael Saylor, stated that Bitcoin is refreshing. Many Bitcoin traders commented on this tweet and agreed with this statement. This Bitcoin news may cause a rally for this crypto. Regarding its technical analysis, over 15 technical indicators are now green. Additionally, the Bitcoin crypto is trading above its 100 and 200-day EMAs. Thus, experts in the crypto field predict a potential rise to $84,321 for Bitcoin before Q2 of 2024 ends. KangaMoon (KANG): New Partnership With RaidSharks At the same time, KangaMoon (KANG) is a meme coin rapidly gaining popularity. It recently announced a significant collaboration with RaidSharks, which will help it cement its standing in the industry. With this development, KangaMoon players will experience thrilling raids and a $1,000 monthly pool. This partnership will help increase community engagement in this upcoming Play-to-Earn (P2E) game. In KangaMoon's game, KANG will serve as the primary in-game currency. With KANG, you can buy in-game items and upgrade your characters. Additionally, KangaMoon revealed it will provide all holders of this meme coin with exclusive challenges for extra rewards. Another primary focus of KangaMoon is giving back to its community. KangaMoon is now providing the most active community members with free KANG before its official launch. Thus, over 29,000 registered community members are now rushing to like and share KangaMoon's social media content. This meme coin is currently in Stage 5 of its presale, which has raised over $5.8M and is on pace to hit $6M before April 2024 ends. One KANG now costs only $0.0196 - a 290% rise from its starting price. Experts are bullish, given its ties to the P2E gaming market, which may reach $885M by 2028. They forecast a jump to $0.5 once a Tier-1 CEX lists KANG in Q2 of 2024. Pepe (PEPE): Now Trading on Coinbase After encountering technical issues, Coinbase announced that the Pepe (PEPE) perpetual futures contracts are now in full-trading mode. After this bullish Pepe news, its value soared from $0.0000051 to $0.0000078 on the 1-week chart. This meme coin's market cap increased from $2.17B to $3.28B during that time. Not only that, but the Pepe coin is now trading above its 21- and 50-day EMAs. For these reasons, prominent market analysts predict that the Pepe crypto will reach a value of $0.0042 before the end of Q2 2024. This makes Pepe one of the meme coins to watch this year. Bitcoin vs. KangaMoon vs. Pepe - Which One Can Pump First? In this crypto battle, KangaMoon emerges as the victor with a low market cap of $19.6M. This means KANG needs fewer new funds for its price to rise compared to Bitcoin and Pepe. Thus, KangaMoon is one of the most promising meme coins to watch.

Hedera Price Jumps, KangaMoon Nears $6m, Is a $500 Breakout Possible for LTC?

Kangamoon

Mixed reactions have trailed trading activities in the crypto space as investors contemplate projects to invest in. Hedera (HBAR) price has witnessed a massive rally after users misinterpreted the announcement involving the renounced crypto asset manager, BlackRock. Meanwhile, Litecoin (LTC) is among the best cryptos, and experts wonder if a breakout of $500 is possible for the top crypto coin. In another development, KangaMoon (KANG) is offering new investors a 20% incentive on all purchases. Experts believe KangaMoon is one of the top crypto coins worth investing in the year. KangaMoon (KANG): New Investors Get a 20% Bonus on All Purchases Even with the bullish run of both Hedera (HBAR) and Litecoin (LTC), KangaMoon is set to rival both coins very soon. The play-to-earn platform looks to set the pace by offering many juicy rewards to users. At KangaMoon, users can engage in weekly, monthly and quarterly challenges and earn prizes and rewards. So far, KangaMoon has boosted over 20,000 community members who have signed up on the platform. Also, more than 6,000 buyers have keyed into the presale. As an active member, you get rewarded with KANG tokens when you promote the project online. There is also a referral reward system for members who bring their friends.

When considering the best cryptos to buy in Q2, KangaMoon should top your list. Hedera (HBAR) Price Skyrockets Amidst BlackRock Tokenization Saga Hedera Price has surged massively after traders misinterpreted news of BlackRock Money market fund tokenization on the Hedera blockchain. While the initial news suggested that Blackrock chose Hedera for the project, which was not the case, the blockchain trading and infrastructure firms Archax and Ownera have debunked the news. In a tweet, they said that the choice of selecting Hedera came from them and not from BlackRock. Meanwhile, data from CoinMarketCap showed that amidst the latest news, Hedera's price gained 66% in the past week and 45% in the past day. Also, the Hedera trading volume has surged by over 6000% in the past day, with the market cap hitting over $4.5B. While the coin has retraced after the news was clarified, analysts believe the Hedera price will hit $0.20 in May. Litecoin's (LTC) bullish rally continues, Is a $500 breakout Possible? Litecoin is one of the top crypto coins on the market now. It has been on a bullish rally for some time, which has led to an inflow of investors. The latest Litecoin news has been positive, which might be the reason for the rally. A few weeks ago, it displaced other cryptos to become the most widely used crypto for payment in Bitpay. According to data from CoinMarketCap, Litecoin's price has increased by 11% in the past week. The Litecoin trading volume and market cap are surging, which could trigger another rally soon. Although the coin is trading below $100, some analysts believe a surge to $500 is possible in 2024. Discover the Exciting Opportunities of the KangaMoon (KANG) Presale Today!

KangaMoon Makes Waves in the Altcoin Space, While Solana and Toncoin Experience Market Shifts

Kangamoon

Established altcoins such as Solana (SOL) and Toncoin (TON) experience market swings. However, none have risen as rapidly as KangaMoon (KANG), a rising Stage 5 presale star. Early buyers of this altcoin have already obtained a 290% ROI. Many analysts hint that this crypto may become the next $1 altcoin in 2024. Let’s see why. Altcoin Sherpa Remains Bullish for the Solana Coin Recently, Solana (SOL) has been on an uptrend. According to CoinMarketCap data, the Solana price increased from $136 to $153 over the past week alone. Its market cap soared from $60.73B to $68.66B during that time. Crypto analyst Altcoin Sherpa claims that a price chop between the $115-$140 area could signal a bottom for SOL, which is very bullish. The technical analysis for the Solana crypto also shows bullish signs. For example, this altcoin trades above its 100 and 200-day EMAs while boasting 25 green technical indicators. As a result, experts in the crypto field have made a bullish Solana price prediction. They forecast a jump to $228.09 before Q2 of 2024 ends for Solana. Toncoin Price Analysis: Showing an Upward Trajectory Meanwhile, Toncoin (TON) is another altcoin that has been soaring. CoinMarketCap data shows that the Toncoin price jumped from $4.90 to $5.65 in the last 30 days. This altcoin’s market cap surged from $17.09B to $19.64B in that period. This bullish trend for the Toncoin crypto may continue as its technical analysis is bullish. Notably, there are now 15 technical indicators in the buy zone. Not only that, Toncoin is now trading above its 50—and 100-day EMAs. Market analysts note all these factors when making their Toncoin price predictions. Thus, they predict a rise to $3.34 within Q2 of 2024. KangaMoon (KANG): A Future Member of the Top 10 Altcoins During the market shifts of Solana and Toncoin, KangaMoon (KANG) emerged as a contender with great potential. This altcoin is gaining popularity, boasting over 20K community members and 5.8K KANG holders. Traders have been captivated by the project’s attention to the Play-to-Earn (P2E) industry, which is estimated to be worth $885M by 2028. KANG is unique in its use as an in-game currency for KangaMoon’s upcoming P2E game. This adds value because players can buy items in-game or even upgrade their characters. Additionally, KangaMoon will give KANG holders exclusive access to weekly, monthly, and quarterly challenges for extra tokens and in-game items. Moreover, its focus on giving back sets KangaMoon apart from others. So far, free KANG tokens have been distributed among the most active community members before launching officially. Consequently, this move has made countless individuals engage with KangaMoon’s social media posts by liking, sharing and retweeting them. KANG costs just $0.0196 as it is in Stage 5 of its presale—a 290% jump from its starting price. However, analysts still strongly believe in Kangamoon’s future growth potential. They foresee a rise to $1 once a Tier-1 CEX lists this altcoin in Q2 of 2024. With this prediction coming true, KANG may emerge as one of the best altcoins to buy. Can KangaMoon Outpace Solana and Toncoin? With a market cap of $19.6M, KangaMoon may outpace Solana and Toncoin since it needs fewer new funds to raise its price. Thanks to this advantage, KangaMoon has the potential to become one of the top 10 altcoins that you can now buy for a low price.

https://we.tl/t-lk7ZTXr33k Bucharest, 25th of April 2024: On April 14th, the Odeon Theater hosted the second edition of The Bucharest Hackathon, the first hackathon in Romania dedicated to enthusiasts of new technologies. The competition brought together over 200 amateur and senior programmers, both Romanian and foreign, who came from Bucharest as well as from other cities in the country, such as Cluj, Brasov, or Craiova. For 24 hours, they coded and competed in developing software projects that tested the limits of modern technologies. The top three teams won the grand prize of a total value of $30,000, but 25 teams were also selected to receive special prizes from the partners. For the final competition, 35 teams were selected. “ The Bucharest Hackathon is attracting more and more participants. I was impressed by the level of competence of the teams and projects and their achievements in only 24 hours. The jury members, most of whom have international experience, appreciated the location and organization, stating that they felt like they were at a hackathon in Silicon Valley. Genezio was chosen by more than half of the teams to implement their solution. ” Andrei Pitis, CEO & Co-founder of Genezio. “ From the moment we saw the first registrations for the event, we realized that we were going to have a completely different edition: an iconic location, much bolder ideas, much more creative solutions, but also a considerable effort - and so it was. The Bucharest Hackathon was truly an emotional roller-coaster: from the trust in the colleagues on our team to the transformation of an idea into a product, and to the decisive moment when you find out if you are among the winners,” said Flavian Manea, CEO and co-founder of Bware Labs. “At MultiversX, we are proud to support innovation and entrepreneurship in our tech community. The partnership with The Bucharest Hackathon underlines our commitment to the future of technology and innovation in Romania.

Second place, worth $3,000, went to the Salty team, composed of Kerimberdi Agayev Kaibov Merdan and Cihan Ilhan. They proposed an application for high school students to receive guidance on complex math problems. The application takes the user’s handwriting and, combining OpenAI and AWS Cloud technologies provides the answer to the problem almost instantly. The third prize, of $2,000, was won by the programmers from the Awesome Hackers team, namely Puiu Răzvan, Ene Cosmina, and Manea Lucas. Awesome Hackers created a neural data collection platform designed to help improve cognitive function and focus. In addition, two of the participating teams will receive support from MultiversX so that their ideas can reach the startup stage (Awesome Hackers and Mental Regression).

Meme Coin Mania Is Back! These Memecoins Are Fuelling the Crypto Boom

Kangamoon

Meme coins are surging in value, and could fuel the next market run, and boom within the crypto sphere. However, there are many meme coins to choose from, so knowing how to diversify is essential in order to get the best possible returns out of the market. Three meme coins have stood out the most as of recently, including Shiba Inu (SHIB), Floki (FLOKI) and KangaMoon (KANG). Today, we will be conducting an in-depth analysis of each one to determine just how far they can rise, and to see what kind of returns investors can expect. By the end, we will determine which is one of the best meme coins to invest in during 2024. Shiba Inu (SHIB) Grows 164.5% – Can This Meme Coin Climb Further? Shiba Inu (SHIB) has been dominating the chart as a top-growth meme coin as of recently, as it managed to experience a year-to-date (YTD) climb of 164.5%. Moreover, within the span of a single week, the Shiba Inu price has gone up from a low point of $0.00002107 to a maximum value point at $0.00002762, which has positioned it as a major player with a 15.3% growth. Its spike has not stopped, as if it gathers further bullish attention, the Shiba Inu crypto could soon experience major price gains. Based on the Shiba Inu price prediction, it is projected that it can spike to a maximum point of value at $0.000058 by the end of 2024. Floki (FLOKI) Spikes 516.4% YTD – Is the Rise Over? Floki (FLOKI) has experienced a notable price uptrend as well, as its year-to-date (YTD) climb was by 516.4%. At this rate of growth, it is bound to essentially fuel the next crypto boom, especially as the Floki crypto has not stopped its growth even in the short-term. Specifically, according to the on-chart metrics, the Floki price has grown from a low point at $0.00013 to a maximum value of $0.000179. As a result, market sentiment is bullish on this memecoin, and while it's up 11.3% during the past week, according to the Floki price prediction, it can end 2024 at $0.000216. KangaMoon (KANG) Rises 290% and Has Over 20K Holders Fueled by Social-Fi Elements KangaMoon (KANG) has already seen over 20,000 registered users, and its native token is a part of the crypto wallets of over 5,800 holders as-well. Moreover, the presale has raised over $5 million and by the end of April, can pass the $6 million raised mark fueled by the massive level of interest and the massive KANG growth potential. Just during the past trading session, KANG spiked from $0.005 to $0.0196, rising by 290% and now at Stage 5 of its presale, is seeing rapid momentum. The key catalyst for this growth is its unique fuse of Play-to-Earn (P2E) elements, with a focus on the community, and Social-Fi elements. These aspects differentiate this meme coin from most competitors, as it features vast utility as a result of this. KANG is one of the memecoins that will enable anyone the opportunity to buy items, level up characters within the P2E game, and access the dedicated marketplace in which they can buy, sell or trade NFTs. As a result, sentiment is bullish and analysts project that it can spike to $0.5 by the end of Q2, 2024, making it one of the best meme coins to invest in. Summary It's clear that both Floki and Shiba Inu are dominant forces within the meme coin space, and 2024 has also been a bullish year for them. But many traders, investors and enthusiasts have begun turning their attention to the blockchain ICO of KangaMoon as it can redefine the meme coin space and even become a part of the major P2E gaming industry, expected to reach $885 million by 2028, making it the hottest project to jump into.

Amplifier Security emerges from stealth to bridge divide between the workforce and security with AI copilot and human-in-the-loop automation

Amplifier Security

Security teams rely on an ever-growing stack of security tools to keep their organization safe. Yet, coverage gaps and alerts across these tools do not get proper and timely attention because of the difficulty engaging company employees busy with their daily work to fix them. Today, Amplifier Security has launched from stealth with a $3.3m investment and the industry’s first AI-powered human-in-the-loop automation and security copilot that connects the dots between an organization’s existing security stack and their people. The pre-seed funding round was led by Cota Capital with participation from WestWave Capital and Shift Left Ventures, and included angel investments from industry luminaries and founders of Slack, MobileIron, Centrify, PeopleNet, Skyflow and Mercury. Enforcing security controls through automation gets pushback from users whose work is disrupted, for example, when a security patch update forces a system reboot during a critical workstream. Triaging security tool alerts means closing the loop with the end user to determine true versus false positives before taking disruptive actions - a truly burdensome process for everyone. Security teams do their best to navigate this complex situation — but it often leads to a strained relationship with the workforce. The Amplifier Security solution extends the value and effectiveness of existing security tools by empowering the entire company to work together towards a much faster response time that dramatically increases the security health and culture of an organization. Amplifier provides an engagement layer between existing security tools and the workforce through Ampy - a trusted copilot that acts as an AI security buddy who helps employees understand the risk they are creating for the organization and solves their security issues while balancing their productivity. Building on the experiences people are used to, for example with credit card companies verifying suspicious transactions, Ampy engages with employees, guiding them through security protocols based on real-time insights. This approach not only speeds up response times but also significantly boosts an organization's security posture by involving employees directly in the security process. Amplifier integrates with and enhances the effectiveness of existing deployed tools like identity security, MFA, endpoint security, vulnerability scanning and management, SaaS and cloud security, SIEM and security training; and makes adaptive human protection a reality for organizations. Ampy is backed by Amplifier’s human-in-the-loop automation platform, composed of a security data fabric, security hub and engagement studio. The platform integrates into all corporate security tools and normalizes data across those tools to contextualize and prioritize security risks and vulnerabilities. It then helps organizations translate those findings into actionable remediation engagements through Ampy. Amplifier helps every CISO, departmental leaders and individuals understand their security posture through intuitive personalized health scores and dashboards. It enables security teams with enforcement of 100% security tooling coverage across every employee and offloads countless hours of manual work to correlate data in spreadsheets, chasing down employees to triage alerts, getting users to maintain their security hygiene. Cal Henderson, co-founder of Slack: “The way we operated our corporate security engineering program closely aligns with the design principles at the core of Amplifier Security's vision. I’m a firm believer that engaging the workforce for security automation with a productivity platform like Slack is the only modern way to solve today’s dynamic cybersecurity threat landscape.” Amplifier Security was founded by Shreyas Sadalgi, CEO and Thomas Donnelly, CTO and President, who both have two decades of experience in enterprise security, IT and automation. Donnelly is a three-time CISO and CIO with over a decade of experience leveraging human-centric approaches and technology that transformed security in organizations. He firmly believes that in today’s dynamic and decentralized workplaces, CISOs need to completely rethink how their teams operate by allowing users to self heal their own security issues. Rather than security operating in the background and interrupting employee productivity at inopportune times, Amplifier delivers an incredible user experience that drives everyone in the workforce to participate in their own security. “There is a massive gap in the market that is preventing security practitioners from being successful. Most security tools aren’t built to engage users, as they’re always meant to work in the background.” said CEO and co-founder, Shreyas Sadalgi “Amplifier flips the script by engaging employees on behalf of all security tools in a more human-friendly way, where every end-user interaction is a two-way conversation with the right tonality, context, empathy and actionable information based on the security finding and the user role. Our vision is to shift the cybersecurity focus to include both technology and the people who use it, creating a balanced and more secure environment for businesses.” Gaurav Manglik, Partner at WestWave Capital commented: “The lack of human engagement in security automation is a missed opportunity to educate people on the why behind the risk of each security finding. Because of today’s hybrid and dynamic workplaces where everyone is moving fast in the spirit of hyperproductivity, this problem has become harder to solve at scale. After assessing the market for many years, Amplifier has done the best execution we’ve seen from a product and team perspective thus far.” Aditya Singh, Partner at Cota Capital added: “Security is fundamentally about both people and technology, yet the industry has largely built security tools focused solely on the technology element. Everyone knows that when it comes to cybersecurity in workplaces, engaging humans is the biggest opportunity. Amplifier answers the bell with its unique human-in-the-loop solution. We believe they are uniquely positioned to turn this trend into a movement that forward-thinking CISOs will embrace so that they can more efficiently and effectively manage enterprise security.” Amplifier has been engaged with security teams at over 15 companies as its marquee design partners; many who have been using its product in private betas and seeing daily value — hours saved every week toiling in spreadsheets, quick identification of tooling gaps in their environments, and the ability to self-heal common security issues. “Most organizations haven’t significantly changed their approach to threat management – keeping the old silos between those responsible for security monitoring and those responding to the rest of the employee base.” said Steve Mancini, Head of Security at Guardant Health. “Security teams can no longer operate this way. Security has to be embedded in every function, and that means empowering all employees to participate in security. Even with all the security automations, our employees are the best sensors of the unusual or anomalous at every level of our business. They enable us to quickly get context when we notice suspicious behavior and identify incidents faster based on their proactive observations.” Shawn Bass, ex-CTO, VMware End User Computing: “Most often humans in the workforce are not intentionally violating security practices maliciously. Often they're just trying to be as productive as possible and sometimes the Security and IT operations best practices are perceived to be getting in the way of that. Security teams struggle to solve these last mile problems because of the highly nuanced and manual effort it takes to loop in their workforce to fix tooling related problems. Amplifier is innovating on this hard unsolved problem, by empowering humans to participate and collaborate with security teams to triage and fix issues, all while having great productivity.” About Amplifier Security Amplifier Security enables companies to harness the power of AI and their workforce to secure their business. Its flagship product, Amplifier, is the industry’s first AI-powered human-in-the-loop automation and security copilot that connects the dots between your people and your existing security tools, so you can quickly address the most critical issues without harming productivity. With Amplifier, security and IT teams can gain a comprehensive understanding of their security health and collaborate with end users to enforce controls — leading to a faster response time that dramatically increases the security posture and culture of an organization. Amplifier is crafted with ♥️ in Atlanta and San Francisco.
