How IZEA Worldwide (NASDAQ: IZEA) Is Leading The World Into The Creator Economy Era

Benzinga

By James Blacker, Benzinga As the influence of social media platforms has grown and technological advancements have lowered barriers to content creation, individuals have been leveraging their talent to connect directly with audiences and make money on their own terms – ushering in the age of the creator economy. According to Goldman Sachs Research, some 50 million global creators – from gamers to musicians, artists, podcasters and vloggers – make up the creator economy. This figure is expected to grow at a compound annual growth rate of 10-20% between 2023-2028, growing to $480 billion from $250 billion in 2023, and driven by monetization of short-form video platforms via advertising. The rise of the creator economy has had an immense impact on marketing strategies across sectors and industries. Brands are spending more and more on creators and less on traditional advertising. Tech firms such as IZEA Worldwide (NASDAQ: IZEA), Aspire IQ and Upfluence offer tools to support creators and help bridge the gap with their clients, increasing profitability while helping brands garner eyeballs. IZEA: The Creator Economy Trailblazer MarTech firm and industry pioneer IZEA have been instrumental in shaping the creator economy, having created the first ever influencer marketing platform back in 2006. Even before then, founder and CEO Ted Murphy was one of the first to use the influence of bloggers and social media stars to promote brands. IZEA’s award-winning influencer marketing platform, IZEA Flex, connects creators with brands to facilitate collaborations. Its suite of tools allows companies to find influencers, manage campaigns and analyze performance. How IZEA Has Helped Creators Over The Years What sets IZEA apart is its commitment to making opportunities available to all creators, both big and small. Its marketplace allows influencers of all sizes to connect with brands, ensuring that even niche creators can find lucrative partnerships. Among IZEA’s software offerings is FormAI, a suite of AI tools for both brands and creators to create high-quality images, text and video. Within FormAI, both brands and creators can use ChatGPT, Stable Diffusion and other AI tools to generate content for Instagram posts, TikTok captions, blog posts and more. In a recent interview with Benzinga, Murphy said that more and more brands are starting to invest in user-generated content. Capitalizing on this trend, in Dec. 2023, IZEA acquired advocate marketing platform Zuberance, which allows companies to recruit their own customers as ambassador content creators to grow brand awareness organically. Award-Winning Tech And Campaigns IZEA’s innovations have earned it numerous accolades, including the Best Influencer Marketing Company at the 2023 MarTech Breakthrough Awards. The company’s full-service influencer marketing campaigns have also earned industry recognition, with awards for its campaigns carried out with Warner Bros (NASDAQ: WBD), the US Marines, Acer, Toyota (NYSE: TM), among many others. For investors, the creator economy represents a dynamic and evolving sector with continuing growth potential. IZEA’s innovative platform and proven track record potentially make it a company to watch in this new era of digital creativity. Featured photo by Adem AY on Unsplash.

A New Era for On-Chain Airdrops! HTX Liquid Restaking: Your Gateway to Effortless Airdrop Rewards

HTX

Following the recent distribution of the first Merlin Chain (MERL) Airdrop, Restaking has once again taken center stage as a highly sought-after sector among investors in the crypto sphere. HTX Liquid Restaking has distinguished itself in this airdrop event by adhering to on-chain airdrop rules, offering lucrative yields, and providing individual users with the opportunity to receive up to 112,816 MERL tokens as airdrop rewards. Once more, these qualities have earned HTX praise and recognition from the investment community. As the first exchange to introduce Restaking services, HTX Liquid Restaking has revolutionized how users participate in on-chain airdrops. With features like zero-threshold, no-staking, and no-lockup, it provides unparalleled convenience and flexibility, making it effortless for users to claim on-chain rewards. No Lock-up, More Flexibility! What Else Makes Liquid Restaking on HTX the Preferred Choice? Restaking, at its core, involves re-staking already staked crypto assets to earn additional rewards. HTX Liquid Restaking, however, breaks away from the conventional model of restaking, ushering in a groundbreaking new dimension for airdrops. In comparison to on-chain staking, HTX Liquid Restaking eliminates the need for staking and lock-up assets, offering the following distinct advantages: 1. Easy Accessibility: Traditional staking models typically require users to lock up a specific amount of crypto assets in a smart contract for a set period to earn corresponding rewards. HTX's zero-staking, no-lockup model, represented by Liquid Restaking, revolutionizes the staking landscape by eliminating these limitations. Users can join the event at any time without the need to pre-lock their assets, significantly reducing the entry barrier. 2. Flexibility and Liquidity: HTX's zero-staking, no-lockup model guarantees users full control over their assets. With HTX Liquid Restaking available for both spot and futures accounts, users have the freedom to withdraw and trade their funds at any time without facing lock-up constraints. This flexibility empowers users to adjust their investment strategies according to market conditions, enabling them to seize opportunities more effectively. 3. Reduced Risk: Users do not need to perform complex on-chain transfers, mitigating potential asset risks linked to improper management of on-chain wallets. 4. Enhanced User Participation: HTX's zero-staking, no-lockup model allows participants to join the event at any time and earn rewards effortlessly, boosting user enthusiasm and investment drive. Conversely, traditional staking models, which often require prolonged asset lock-up, make participants more cautious and hesitant. Therefore, HTX's Liquid Restaking, characterized by its zero-staking, no-lockup model, is uniquely designed to cater to user needs. This approach empowers participants to join the event at any time and effortlessly earn airdrop rewards, free from the constraints of asset lock-ups. This truly provides participants with a straightforward participation experience. Trustworthy Liquid Restaking Projects, Carefully Selected by the HTX Team Besides zero-threshold and flexibility, HTX Liquid Restaking boasts a host of other key advantages: Firstly, HTX Liquid Restaking removes the limitations that typically require users to lock up their assets for a period when participating in staking under the traditional model. Users can freely withdraw and trade their crypto assets at any given time, unaffected by lock-up periods. Furthermore, all on-chain projects available in HTX Liquid Restaking undergo meticulous selection by the platform's investment research team. This ensures the security of participants' assets and transaction transparency, enabling users to feel safe and secure when participating in the event. Most importantly, HTX Liquid Restaking offers users airdrop rewards equivalent to those from direct on-chain participation. Supported by the guarantee of asset safety and without affecting users' fund liquidity, the event also offers them an opportunity to realize wealth appreciation by securing additional earnings. In summary, HTX Liquid Restaking, a groundbreaking model, heralds a new era for users to effortlessly claim airdrop rewards. With zero-threshold, no-staking, and no-lockup features, it offers unparalleled convenience and flexibility to investors. By participating in the event with a simple "one-click", users can harvest lucrative rewards without missing out on any benefits of the on-chain restaking sector. Seize the opportunity and join HTX Liquid Restaking now to claim a share of airdrops from popular projects like BounceBit, EigenLayer, and Puffer, and prepare for even more exciting additions in the future. Early participants stand to pocket higher rewards. Get ready for even more excitement ahead! Participants can either join an existing team or create one by teaming up with friends to receive boosts on their rewards through HTX Liquid Restaking. Invite more friends to join this event to claim more airdrop rewards.

Plotline raises $2.6m as it harnesses AI to boost adoption in the super app era

Plotline

As customer acquisition costs soar, consumer companies are rushing to find new ways to make their apps appealing by building super apps that offer multiple services. But with 50% of the global population expected to be using super apps by 2050, the competition to win and engage users is intensifying. Plotline, a startup enabling consumer app companies to rapidly and effortlessly customize their apps, has raised $2.6 million from Elevation Capital to improve user adoption and loyalty in the super app era. Plotline was founded in 2022 by Shubham Jindal and Adarsh Tadimari, who previously led the business and AI teams at HyperVerge, a leading identity-verification SaaS company. The pair initially set out to help product teams get real-time app feedback, but quickly found that many apps were being underutilized because the majority of users weren’t aware of all of the available functionalities in the first place. Shubham Jindal, co-founder of Plotline commented: "Mobile apps are adding a lot more functionality into their apps today compared to half a decade ago. This poses a unique challenge in how users navigate and discover these offerings. Through our work with customers over the past year, we see that influencing user behavior by making apps dynamic can be extremely beneficial for the company and end user. As apps transition from single-function tools to vertical super apps that offer multiple complementary services - they realized there was untapped potential in helping marketers and users unlock their apps' full value.” Today, Plotline helps consumer brands make their apps dynamic based on individual user behavior, analyzing billions of data points to create a personalized experience that drives significant improvements in app usage. This helps product marketers cut through the noise in a way existing customer engagement platforms are currently unable to. While those platforms excel at bringing users back to apps through channels like push notifications, SMS, and emails, they fall short in being able to influence the user within the app itself. Furthermore, by integrating LLMs for content creation and continuous experimentation, Plotline ensures that each user's experience is optimally engaging and consistently evolving. Based in San Francisco and Bengaluru, Plotline’s powerful no-code platform facilitates in-app user experimentation with inline widgets, improves activation, feature adoption, and retention with nudges, and drives deeper engagement with gamification components. This empowers consumer brands across the globe to skyrocket their user adoption and engagement rates. Since launching just one year ago, Plotline has garnered significant traction among 50 consumer app teams, including industry leaders like Khatabook, BharatPe, CoinDCX, Niyo, Step, and Kredivo. Plotline has served over 150 million end users through its platform and has helped every customer improve implementation and experimentation speeds by up to 10x. Strategically deploying its $2.6m seed round to bolster key functions across R&D, marketing, and sales, Plotline is now looking ahead to drive expansion in the US, Middle East, Africa, and Asia-Pacific regions. “With the rise of vertical superapps, Plotline helps consumer apps cut through the noise and deliver the best in-app experiences through their no-code platform that allows growth marketers to craft and launch tailored UX campaigns. We're eager to support Shubham Jindal and Adarsh Tadimari on this journey as they redefine the dynamics of user engagement and drive unparalleled growth in this industry.” Poorvi Vijay, Vice President, Elevation Capital. “The growth isn’t just in numbers. With apps turning multi-functional, there’s a lot more ground to cover, and the role of app adoption platforms is becoming even more crucial. We’re enabling both companies and their users to navigate the dynamic digital landscape, and the journey is far from over,” said Shubham Jindal. About Plotline Plotline is a plug-and-play platform that empowers B2C product marketers to customize app experiences to each user’s behavior and preferences. Plotline facilitates app experimentation with inline widgets, improves activation, feature adoption, and retention with nudges, and drives deeper engagement with gamification components. Plotline powers over 50 gaming, fintech, and commerce consumer apps, including industry leaders like Khatabook, BharatPe, CoinDCX, Niyo, Step, and Kredivo. About Elevation Capital Elevation Capital is a leading venture capital firm that provides seed and early-stage capital for emerging companies in India. Having invested in India since 2002, Elevation has deployed over $2.6 Bn of capital in over 190 companies. The firm announced its eighth pool of capital of $670 million in April 2022. Co-led by Managing Partners Ravi Adusumalli and Mukul Arora, along with Partners Mridul Arora and Mayank Khanduja, the firm has invested across Consumer Internet, SaaS, Fintech, Consumer Brands, Edtech, Healthtech and Deeptech. Elevation Capital has offices in Bengaluru and Gurgaon. Contact Details Plotline Bilal Mahmood +44 7714 007257 b.mahmood@stockwoodstrategy.com Company Website https://www.plotline.so/

HTX Pioneers the Era of Negative Fee Rates for BTC Trading: Daily Rewards of 100,000 USDT

HTX

HTX’s “Trade to Earn” has attracted widespread attention in the market since its launch on March 15, with popularity and influence steadily rising. This innovative model has not only attracted many users to actively participate but also set a new benchmark in the industry. 3 Days Since Launch: Cumulative Trading Volume Exceeds 1 Billion USDT According to official sources, within three days of its launch, HTX’s “Trade to Earn” has generated a cumulative trading volume exceeding 1 billion USDT, and its trading depth has returned to the Top 3. The trading volume has surged by 179% compared to before the event started. The platform has distributed rewards totaling over 300,000 USDT and bought back and burnt $HTX worth 160,000 USDT. This performance not only demonstrates the strong appeal of the HTX platform but also reflects that users highly recognize the “Trade to Earn” model. At the same time, this initiative effectively reduces the supply of $HTX, thus enhancing its stability and value. The Trade to Earn event is a benefit for all trading users at the HTX exchange. After successful registration for this event, participants can earn $HTX as rewards by trading designated cryptocurrencies. Additionally, all daily trading fees generated will be fully utilized for $HTX buybacks to support stable appreciation. 100% of $HTX acquired through buybacks will be entirely burned. This event enhances the platform's liquidity through reduced trading costs and improved trading efficiency, offering users better trading experience. Meanwhile, the supply of $HTX will be decreased through the event to enhance its stability and value, which will help attract more investors and users to participate in ecosystem development. Most importantly, this burning method also grants more earning opportunities for HTX DAO users. Through participation in liquidity mining and staking, users can receive more rewards in tokens, thereby achieving wealth appreciation. Until April 14: Daily Distribution of Rewards Worth 100,000 USDT According to an official announcement from HTX, the “Trade to Earn” event will continue until 11:59:59 (UTC) on April 14, with daily distributions of $HTX worth 100,000 USDT to provide users with more opportunities for wealth appreciation. In this round of activity, BTC/USDT is the designated spot trading pair for "Trade to Earn. The Trade to Earn event is on a daily basis. A day is defined from 12:00 (UTC) on Day T to 11:59 (UTC) on Day T+1. Event rewards will be calculated and updated starting on Day T+2 at 04:00 (UTC). Please claim your $HTX in time. In addition, this event is open to all users, including market makers and API traders. Users must have a Rocket count of ≥300 and successfully register on the event page to be eligible for the event. It is also worth noting that HTX actively listened to the suggestions of the HTX DAO community. After 16:00:00 (UTC) on March 19, 2024, participants in the "Trade to Earn" event will receive a portion of their trading fees as a reward, which will no longer be allocated as commissions to their higher-level partners. Other trading pairs will remain unaffected. This initiative aims to further increase the daily buyback amount of $HTX to support stable $HTX appreciation. "Trade to Earn" serves as an innovative model for cryptocurrency trading and empowerment, provides users with broader opportunities to engage in trading and earn profits. HTX will continue to improve the “Trade to Earn” model, optimize user experience, and enhance platform value.
