Bitget

Bitget Wallet, at the forefront of the Web3 wallet landscape, has recently unveiled a meme coin-themed event, showcasing a substantial prize pool of $200,000. This move comes on the heels of the successful launch of its meme coin, MOEW, on the Base mainnet. This experimental token launch marked a bold step in Bitget Wallet's journey towards innovation in the meme coin space. The debut of MOEW last week achieved a surge of over 22,000% within just an hour after its launch. At present, MOEW is held by nearly 100,000 wallet addresses, and its total transaction volume has soared past $120 million. This strong performance not only places MOEW as a notable asset on the Base chain but also highlights Bitget Wallet's capability to stimulate noticeable activity and interest throughout the network. In a bid to build on this momentum, Bitget Wallet has rolled out the 'Game of MEME' event, aimed at deepening market engagement with meme coins. The event introduces a massive airdrop prize pool of $200,000, inviting participants to dive into a variety of activities, from trading meme coins on-chain and engaging on social media platform X to creating meme-themed content.

Emerging as one of the most lucrative areas in the cryptocurrency market, the popularity of meme coins has spread across various networks.

4 Stocks For A Decarbonized Future

VVPR, ARRY, ENLT, SMXT

The whole world is on a decarbonization mission amid rising climate change concerns. In fact, the International Energy Agency (IEA) estimates that this year will bring $1.7 trillion worth of investments in deploying renewable energy and other clean-energy technologies—a new all-time high that follows six straight years of increases. Experts have, however, warned that decarbonization will involve more than just electrifying transportation and using more solar and wind-generated energy. It will also take sustainable agricultural practices, low-carbon manufacturing, green construction and other climate-friendly solutions. This has resulted in a surge of deal-making, as illustrated by the fact that venture capital decarbonisation-related deal value topped $433 billion in 2023, according to GlobalData Net Zero by 2050 report. In addition to that, a number of global funds have shown their overwhelming support for the trend. For instance, the Arab Energy Fund has said it plans to invest up to $1 billion over the next five years in decarbonisation technologies in the Middle East and North Africa For a long time, the only way for investors to get exposure to the decarbonization opportunity was through pure-play industrial carbon capture companies, mostly done in private markets, meaning everyday investors are completely shut out. However, we have identified four companies that could provide an alternative way of playing the increasing decarbonization momentum. As mentioned earlier, one crucial part of the effort to achieve net-zero emissions in addition to carbon reduction strategies is the transition to electric vehicles (EVs), which is where VivoPower International PLC (NASDAQ:VVPR) comes in. VVPR’s flagship subsidiary, Tembo, supplies conversion kits containing all the parts needed to convert a vehicle from an internal combustion engine (ICE) to an electric vehicle (EV). These parts include the batteries, an e-motor, a reduction box, a charger, software, and many other components that make the converted vehicle work safely and seamlessly. Over the past year or so, the EV specialist has been one of the major beneficiaries of the EV transition, especially outside the US. Tembo’s conversion kits have seen significant interest from the market, as illustrated by the company securing a commitment of 5000+ kits and an order pipeline of 10,000+ in the first half of 2023. Those included an MOU in Jordan for 1,000 kits, opening a path to the Middle East, which is the largest Landcruiser market, and a definitive agreement in Kenya for 4,000 kits, providing entry into second-hand vehicle segments, which expands the addressable market considerably. That early success in those markets has validated Tembo’s conversion kits as a viable solution to help in the decarbonization process, and investors are taking notice. VivoPower International PLC (NASDAQ:VVPR) recently announced that Tembo had met all the milestones to obtain the final follow-on strategic direct equity investment pursuant to a commitment received in June 2023 from a UAE-based private investment office backed by a member of the ruling Al Maktoum family of Dubai. Under the agreement terms, the investor had the option to increase their cumulative investment in subsequent closings up to $10 million based on milestones that have now all been met. The follow-on financing values Tembo at $120 million, which means the value per share of VVPR should be approximately $40 per share. VivoPower International PLC (NASDAQ:VVPR) will continue to retain its majority stake in Tembo, which appears to be on track to unlocking even more shareholder value. Tembo recently announced it would be going public via a merger with Cactus Acquisition Corp. (CCTS), a NASDAQ-listed SPAC, at an indicative pre-money equity valuation of $838 million. Here’s a quick breakdown of the deal: VivoPower shareholders get 5 Tembo shares worth $10 each for every share held. Tembo will issue a special dividend of $1 per share, which would translate to an additional $5 per share held for VivoPower shareholders. Even if the Tembo share price upon IPO is only $1, this implies a per-share valuation for VVPR of $25, including the value of dividend shares. At the same time, the company has announced that its board has authorized a capital management strategy, including a stock buyback program, that will allow the company to purchase up to $5 million of its outstanding shares. These share buybacks will be funded using the company’s proceeds from the realization of business and asset divestitures, including spin-offs like the Caret business unit’s portfolio. VivoPower International PLC (NASDAQ:VVPR) stock has performed exceptionally considering that over the past week alone, shares of the sustainable energy solutions company have created new 52-week highs and made investors triple-digit returns. Array Technologies (NASDAQ:ARRY) enables renewable energy companies to harness the sun’s power with patented trackers that drive multiple rows of solar panels and track the sun’s rays for efficient energy generation throughout the day. Though it may sound like a niche product, it has a large addressable market, as illustrated by the fact that tracker demand is growing 30%–40% faster than the rest of the solar industry, according to the company’s November 2023 investor presentation. One of the key metrics for the company’s business is the levelized cost of energy (LCOE), and Array claims to deliver the lowest LCOE for its customer base over an expected 30-year life. Another aspect that makes ARRY appealing from an investor viewpoint is that the company looks set to receive a lot of support from the Inflation Reduction Act since almost all of its materials are domestically sourced. Furthermore, the company is also growing its international presence, as shown by its recent partnerships with companies like Aluminum Products Company to support the increasing market for the renewable energy sector in the Middle East. According to its most recent filings, Array Technologies. generated $1.57 billion in revenue in FY 2023, while adjusted earnings per share for the full year came in at $1.13, almost five times higher than the $0.26 per share it reported in 2022. Enlight Renewable Energy (NASDAQ:ENLT) is an independent power producer (IPP) that builds and develops solar and wind power facilities worldwide. While most of its current plants are in Israel and Europe, the company also has several projects nearing completion in the US. According to its filings, the company has a gross installed capacity of 1883 MW, with a pipeline expected to further install 618 MW and 1500 MWh of capacity by the end of 2025. The company recently reported Q3 2023 earnings, revealing that its revenues grew by 3% YoY, reaching $58 million, fueled by new projects and inflation indexation in PPAs. During the period, the company's net income increased by 35% to $26 million, primarily due to a non-cash benefit of $8 million from the mark-to-market of interest rate hedges related to the Atrisco project. The company’s renewable energy projects have gained solid momentum across Europe, with the company revealing that the European Bank for Reconstruction and Development (EBRD), together with Erste Group Bank AG and its local bank Erste Bank a.d. Novi Sad (Erste), have approved a financing package worth $101 million for the construction of a new windfarm in Serbia. The EBRD and Erste will provide parallel loans worth $50.5 million each, including the associated debt service reserve facilities that Enlight will use to develop, construct, and operate the 94-megawatt (MW) windfarm. This project was financed under Serbia’s first renewable energy auction for wind capacity, which took place in 2023, and once commissioned, the Pupin windfarm will be able to supply clean, green electricity to more than 40,000 households. SolarMax Technology, Inc. (NASDAQ:SMXT), through its subsidiaries, operates as an integrated solar energy company in the United States and China. The company's US operations primarily consist of the sale and installation of photovoltaic and battery backup systems for residential and commercial customers and the sale of LED systems and services to government and commercial users, while its China operations mainly consist of identifying and procuring solar farm projects for resale to third parties and performing EPC services primarily for solar farm projects. Last month, the company announced the closing of its initial public offering of 4.5 million shares of common stock at an initial public offering price of $4 per share, raising gross proceeds of $18 million.

TRON x HTX DAO Hong Kong Meetup 2024: Building a Metaverse Free Port in Hong Kong

HTX

On April 9, the "TRON x HTX DAO: Hong Kong Meetup 2024" event, hosted by TRON and co-organized by HTX DAO, took place in Hong Kong with great success. This bustling event brought together the brightest minds of the HTX DAO ecosystem: project leaders, committee members, and influential KOLs. Their energy was palpable as they delivered speeches delving into the future of HTX DAO and the ever-changing crypto landscape. TRON founder Justin Sun took center stage via a video, outlining the exciting developments within the TRON ecosystem and HTX DAO's commitment to decentralization. Sun emphasized the mission: leveraging blockchain technology to build a borderless financial system, empowering billions of unbanked individuals worldwide. This dedication is reflected in TRON's impressive statistics: over 220 million registered accounts, 7.4 billion transactions facilitated, a whopping $23.5 billion in total value locked, and over $11 trillion in total transaction value, ranking second to Ethereum among global public chains. Meanwhile, HTX DAO is forging its own path. Having recently concluded its inaugural People Committee election, HTX DAO established strategic partnerships with over 30 parties, such as projects, institutions, and exchanges. This collaborative approach gathers diverse expertise and influence within the blockchain sphere, shaping a new model for decentralized ecosystem governance. Justin Sun wasn't just looking back; he cast his vision towards the future of crypto. He highlighted the recent crypto spotlights, including the approval of spot Bitcoin ETFs and innovations in Layer 2 and Web3. These advancements, he argued, are attracting traditional finance and fueling a bullish market across cryptocurrencies, anticipating Bitcoin to hit an all-time high of $160,000 to $200,000 post-halving. Sun emphasized the critical question in the bull cycle: how can communities and teams thrive in the next decade? He believes the answer lies in decentralization and community-driven governance. Sun sees these elements as essential for fostering transparency, fairness, and collective decision-making within crypto projects. This focus on community aligns perfectly with his long-held vision for the blockchain industry – a vision where he started in this realm. Besides technological development, Sun stressed the need for a cultural shift within the crypto industry, advocating for a strong foundation of communities built on transparency, fairness, and user autonomy. This community-centric approach, he believes, will be the true driving force for the future of TRON DAO and HTX DAO – a future where people, communities, and users are seamlessly integrated. Sun also pointed out that Hong Kong is rising as a gateway for blockchain services. He expressed his belief that Hong Kong has the potential to become a financial free port within the metaverse, offering a stage for engagement within the cryptocurrency and blockchain industries. Additionally, a diverse range of KOLs and project representatives took the stage. Moon, a newly elected member of the HTX DAO People Committee, emphasized the constant presence of opportunity in the market. Jessie, representing the Miss Asia Charity Fund, highlighted HTX DAO's ability to empower each member to become a community leader. Dr. K, founder of MetaMCN, expressed unwavering confidence in HTX DAO's future success, fueled by active participation and support. Cc and Mia, the driving force behind SHEHUB DAO, showcased their platform designed to empower female professionals in Web3. They focus on knowledge sharing, networking, and collaboration, ultimately fostering greater female participation in the space. The successful hosting of both the 2024 Hong Kong Web3 Festival and the TRON x HTX DAO: Hong Kong Meetup 2024 event has fueled excitement for Hong Kong's role in the future of blockchain and cryptocurrency. As industry leaders, HTX DAO and TRON remain dedicated to providing more opportunities for communication and collaboration with Web3 participants and entrepreneurs. Their ongoing commitment to the exploration of Hong Kong's innovations within the crypto field promises to inject fresh momentum into the global cryptocurrency market to boost growth and prosperity.

This platform intends to deliver Ethereum's flexibility alongside Solana's performance, boasting over 10,000 transactions per second, 1-second block times, and immediate finality, all while maintaining full backward compatibility with EVM and key Ethereum infrastructure. The tech startup Monad Labs, founded by the former team from traditional finance giant Jump Trading, recently raised $225 million in Series A Funding with a valuation of $3 billion to build the scalable smart contract distributed ledger. "Monad is driven by a great team with a strong understanding of market mechanisms and connectivity," remarked Edward, Managing Partner at HTX Ventures. "Their go-to-market strategies and tactics are similar to Solana, demonstrating a savvy approach to blockchain innovation. Our investment underscores our commitment to supporting smart teams like Monad Labs, who are driving big changes in the Web3 ecosystem." “We are thrilled to partner with HTX Ventures,” said Keone Hon, Co-founder and CEO of Monad Labs. “Their track record of supporting the growth of decentralized technologies, and their strong relationships across the space, make them an ideal partner for our team. We can definitely learn a lot from collaboration.” The Monad blockchain will launch a testnet in the coming months, with the mainnet deployment planned for later this year. The blockchain will employ the proof-of-stake consensus mechanism and will be Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM) -compatible. As such, projects on Monad will be able to interact with the EVM software platform, where developers from many other blockchain projects also create interoperable decentralized applications on the Ethereum network. About Monad Labs Monad Labs is an early-stage, venture-backed tech startup founded in 2022. Two of the three co-founders of Monad Labs have roots in Jump Trading, where they worked together for seven years building low-latency high-frequency-trading (HFT) systems, and later contributing to R&D at Jump Crypto in 2021. This was the genesis of Monad — synthesizing learnings from HFT, as well as some new ideas, to build the most performant and robust smart-contract blockchain possible. Monad applies expertise in low-latency programming, compiler optimization, systems engineering, cryptography, and graph theory to substantially advance the performance and scalability of decentralized computation.

Team Internet Group begin trading on the OTQX with ticker TIGXF

Team Internet Group PLC

Team Internet Group CEO Michael Riedl joined Proactive at their OTC studio in New York City to mark the company's debut trading on the OTCQX under the ticker symbol "TIGXF." Riedl discussed the significant transformation the company has undergone since its IPO on the London Stock Exchange a decade ago, leading to a rebranding to better reflect its current operations. Describing the company's focus as entirely on the internet, Riedl explained that Team Internet operates various businesses that synergize like a team. It specializes in two main segments: online marketing and online presence. In online marketing, Team Internet creates AI-generated consumer journeys that convert general interest media users into confident consumers. For online presence, it supplies hosting providers globally with the domain names necessary for their customers. Riedl emphasized the exponential growth of social media usage, highlighting Facebook's user base doubling from 1.5 billion in 2018 to 3 billion in 2023, indicating the increasing importance of social media in advertising. He noted that the company experienced balanced growth in both operating segments in 2023 and is integrating a new acquisition, Shinez, to enhance its processes. Under Riedl's leadership, Team Internet has completed nearly 20 acquisitions, contributing to a 25% compound annual growth rate over the past five years. Riedl attributed this success to the rise of social media and data privacy trends, as well as a shift towards local top-level domains over.com due to saturation. The U.S. remains a crucial market for Team Internet, generating 53% of its revenue, with further expansion anticipated following the Shinez acquisition. Riedl's visit to New York underscores the importance of the American market to the company's ongoing growth and development strategies.

Armando Quintero, director of California State Parks: “The third annual State Parks Week celebrates the diverse natural and cultural heritage preserved within California's 280 state parks. This week also reminds Californians that ‘This is where you live.’ All Californians deserve to enjoy these public outdoor spaces.
