Tremp Crypto And Meme Coins Rise To Center Stage In The 2024 Election After Trump's Endorsement

Benzinga

By Austin DeNoce, Benzinga Donald Trump, in a surprising development, has voiced strong support for the U.S. cryptocurrency industry. This endorsement was articulated during a gathering at Mar-a-Lago, where Trump addressed a group of his NFT buyers. He firmly stated that if cryptocurrencies were being pushed out of the U.S. due to regulatory hostility, his administration would halt such a trend, insisting on embracing and accommodating the crypto industry domestically. The former president shared, "The Democrats are very much against it [crypto]. And I say this, a lot of people are very much for it... and I'm fine with it. I want to make sure it's good and solid... but I'm good with it. If you like crypto in any form, and it comes in a lot of different forms, you better vote for Trump." This stands in contrast to the current administration under President Joe Biden, which has been perceived as less favorable toward cryptocurrencies. The Biden administration, along with the SEC, has been criticized for a stringent regulatory approach involving significant fines and extensive legal battles for crypto companies – drawing a firm line in the sand between the two administrations. The Rise Of Tremp And Boden Following Trump's pro-crypto comments, there was an immediate market reaction that particularly impacted two meme coins: doland tremp ($TREMP) and boden ($BODEN). Trump’s announcement to accept crypto donations for his campaign further boosted these currencies. The boden coin, humorously named after Joe Biden, saw a 25% increase in its price, although it later experienced a slight drop. Similarly, the tremp coin, part of a new wave of politically inspired meme coins known as "PolitiFi," likewise gained attention and surged as high as 180%, underscoring how presidential endorsements can influence niche crypto markets. These meme coins, while often created for humor, have managed to garner substantial community support and market responses, largely driven by social media and political fervor. “With the election in full swing, this is an exciting opportunity to merge politics with the continued rise in popularity of meme coins – especially after President Trump's recent comments. The Poltifi community is actively engaged in a collaborative effort to further develop these personas and content, like we've done for Tremp, for fans of both crypto and politics. We're hoping to draw in an entirely new audience of politically minded people – no matter which candidate you support in real life. The Tremp celebrates the electoral process and the excitement of meme-coin potential,” shared a Tremp spokesperson. A New Era For Crypto In light of Trump’s recent comments and the Biden administration’s current stance on crypto, this 2024 presidential election is poised to be pivotal for the industry. For the first time, digital currencies and blockchain technology are coming together to become significant themes in presidential campaigns, as evidenced by Trump’s explicit support and the crypto community’s rallying response. The intertwining of politics and cryptocurrency is becoming more apparent, with political figures recognizing the potential good and bad of this technology. Bearing that in mind, this election cycle could determine the future regulatory landscape for cryptocurrencies in the U.S., making it a critical point of interest for investors and industry stakeholders. It is also likely to create a wild ride for the presidential meme coins gaining traction. The Intersection Of Crypto And Politics As the U.S. inches closer to the November election, the relationship between politics and cryptocurrency is certainly growing stronger. In fact, Trump’s pro-crypto comments were shared the same day the $TREMP team launched its first “campaign video.” Sharing more insight into their efforts, a spokesperson for the $TREMP team said, “Backed by an enthusiastic community that includes more than 25,000 token holders, we have a team of former DC political operatives, artists & videographers, and crypto experts working on blending present day political news with meme culture for Doland Tremp’s campaign for President of Solana." Candidates’ stances on crypto could significantly sway certain voter demographics, especially as digital currencies gain mainstream relevance. The growing political discourse around cryptocurrency regulation and adoption also highlights the sector’s evolving significance in American economic and political discussion. For investors and industry observers, understanding the nuances of each candidate's position on cryptocurrencies will be crucial to navigating the markets or, of course, speculating on the $TREMP and $BODEN meme coins ahead of election day.

AI Data Center Power Requirements Increasing Demand For Critical Materials Like Copper And Uranium

Benzinga

By Kyle Anthony Artificial intelligence (AI) has proliferated rapidly, and this has had consequences for energy consumption. Some technology firms are securing their own clean energy sources to power their data centers–especially to identify new, sustainable and long-term ones. The Energy Consumption Of AI And Data Centers As AI adoption and advancement continue to accelerate, the demand for electrical power to sustain data centers, which support cloud computing, big data processing and AI algorithms, is also on the rise. As reported by S&P Global Commodity Insight, in 2022, global power consumption from data centers was approximately 460 Terawatt hour (TWh). That could double by 2026 to more than 1,000 TWh, roughly equal to Japan's total electricity use. With the creation and usage of generative AI tools across many industries, hyperscale data centers – a specialized category of data center designed to power immense amounts of digital information and computational tasks – have become a central focus. In the U.S., research conducted by Boston Consulting Group states that growth in demand for data center services, particularly for generative AI, is driving up power usage and density. Data center electricity consumption was 2.5% of the U.S. total (~130 TWh) in 2022 and is expected to triple to 7.5% (~390 TWh) by 2030. Given the significant amount of energy required to power generative AI models, many companies are pivoting toward, if not building, data centers that run on sustainable energy sources. Using Current And New Sustainable Energy Sources Recognizing the high energy requirements for data centers, big tech firms such as Amazon.com Inc (NASDAQ: AMZN), Alphabet Inc. (NASDAQ: GOOG), and Microsoft Corp (NASDAQ: MSFT) are among the first to explore using sustainable energy sources, including wind and solar, to power their business operations, such as data centers. For example, Amazon has committed to matching all the electricity used to power its operations with 100% renewable energy and is on track to meet said goal by 2025. The firm recently entered into a power purchase agreement with Scottish Power Renewables, one of the world’s largest clean energy companies. The new agreement will see the company purchase a portion of the 1.4 GW of clean electricity generated by East Anglia THREE, Scottish Power Renewables’ biggest ever offshore wind farm and the second largest in the world when it comes into operation in 2026. While using sustainable energy will alleviate existing demands on the electricity grid, the intermittent nature of solar and wind energy is a challenge. As such, firms are now exploring nuclear energy as a viable power source. Microsoft, OpenAI’s partner and largest investor, believes nuclear power can help fulfill its massive electricity needs as it ventures further into artificial intelligence and supercomputing. Recently, the firm hired Erin Henderson, PhD, MBA, PMP, as the director of nuclear development acceleration, to devise a global strategy for small modular reactors and microreactors to power Microsoft's data centers. Small modular reactors (SMRs) are advanced nuclear reactors with a power capacity of up to 300 Megawatts electric (MW(e)) per unit, about one-third of the generation capacity of traditional nuclear power reactors. SMRs can produce a large amount of low-carbon electricity. Gaining Exposure To The Energy Transition Resources As big tech firms find different avenues to power their data centers, there will be increased demand for the critical minerals needed to generate, transmit and store cleaner energy. For investors, this presents an opportunity, as having material exposure to these essential resources allows them to benefit from the gradual price appreciation that will likely occur. Sprott Copper Miners ETF Copper’s exceptional electrical conductivity and contribution to energy efficiency make it a critical element in energy transmission. It’s broad market demand and versatility in use across many industries have historically positioned its price as a gauge of the global economy. As the global economy moves toward decarbonization and electrification, emerging clean-energy technologies require significantly more copper than traditional systems. For investors looking to gain exposure to copper, the Sprott Copper Miners ETF (NASDAQ: COPP) provides pure-play exposure to large-, mid- and small-cap copper mining companies that are providing a critical mineral necessary for the clean energy transition. Copper’s exceptional electrical conductivity and contribution to energy efficiency make it essential to energy transmission. Copper is indispensable across a wide spectrum of applications, from powering energy grids and essential components of clean energy technologies to being a fundamental element in virtually every electronic device. The ETF tracks the Nasdaq Sprott Copper Miners™ Index, which reflects a broad universe of global securities in the copper industry, including copper producers, developers and explorers. Sprott Uranium Miners ETF The growing demand for energy globally and the need to move away from fossil fuels is setting the stage for nuclear power. For a national, state or local utility, the appeal of nuclear power starts with its reliability, as the sometimes intermittent nature of solar and wind energy can affect its dependability in long-term power generation. Regarding safety, nuclear power plants have advanced in recent decades and the technology has evolved so that plants operate and maintain reactors more efficiently. This translates to fewer, shorter disruptions in the reactors’ consistent electrical power production. Finally, nuclear power is clean, as it generates the lowest greenhouse gasses of any power source. Essential to nuclear energy is uranium, a very heavy metal that can be used as an abundant source of concentrated energy for nuclear reactors. The Sprott Uranium Miners ETF (NYSEARCA: URNM) provides investors with exposure to companies that devote at least 50% of their assets to the uranium mining industry, which may include mining, exploration, development, and production of uranium, or holding physical uranium, owning uranium royalties, or engaging in other, non-mining activities that support the uranium mining industry, by tracking the North Shore Global Uranium Mining Index. A Timely Opportunity As technology increases power demand and we also move toward decarbonization, the value of the critical materials required for energy production and transmission may grow over time. For investors, gaining exposure to companies well-positioned to benefit from the increased investment in the critical minerals needed for clean energy is a timely opportunity that can reap benefits for the future.

Bluefield Solar Income Fund reports strong quarter as hedging strategy counters weaker prices

Bluefield Solar Income Fund

Bluefield Partners managing partner James Armstrong discusses the Bluefield Solar Income Fund's financial performance with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion. In the quarter to 31 March, 2024, the Fund showed resilience, with NAV dropping only slightly due to effective power hedging strategies against fluctuating power prices. The income strategy, which has been consistent since its IPO 11 years ago, includes a significant percentage of power sales hedged for 2024 and 2025, maintaining an income product with a prospective yield of over 8% for shareholders. Armstrong highlighted the Fund's shareholder strategies, including a share buyback program, which bought back 2.45 million shares in March and continues towards a target of £20 million. Despite a 20% discount to net asset value, the Fund reported the strongest financial performance in over a decade, attributed to strategic management and market conditions. Additionally, Armstrong detailed a strategic partnership with GLIL Infrastructure, signaling a long-term commitment to infrastructure investments and asset management aimed at boosting liquidity and reducing company debt.
