COMCAST CELEBRATES 2024 RISE GRANT RECIPIENTS

Comcast Colorado

Yesterday, Comcast brought together more than 100 Comcast RISE recipients, partners, local officials, Comcast leaders and more from across Southern Colorado for Comcast RISE Day: an evening of education, collaboration, networking and recognition. The Comcast RISE program awarded a total of $500,000 in grants along with technology makeovers, marketing assistance, coaching sessions and education resources to 100 small businesses in Southern Colorado this year. Southern Colorado is one of five communities in the nation chosen for the 2024 program. “I’m confident that with the marketing assistance and technology makeover, we can more effectively share the type of experience we offer, increase our occupancy, and ensure more happy guests have a RAD Colorado experience,” said Erin Welch, RISE Grantee and Owner of RAD Hostel in Colorado Springs. Comcast RISE Day was a way to provide ongoing investment and help ensure the long-term success of these small businesses, which are the bedrock of economic growth in their communities. “Thanks to Comcast RISE, I now have an opportunity for a fresh start, and resources to grow my business.” Said Rique Lucero, RISE grantee and Owner of ColorSplashPaintball in Pueblo, CO. “Small businesses are the backbone of our communities, and Comcast is dedicated to the success and empowerment of these local businesses in Southern Colorado.” said J.D. Keller, Regional Senior Vice President, Comcast Mountain West Region. “Our mission for Comcast RISE is to ensure these businesses can prosper, thrive, and create a sustainable impact across Colorado.” Comcast RISE was created in November 2020 to help small businesses hardest hit by COVID-19 by providing the grants and services needed to survive and recover. The program since evolved from helping businesses survive the pandemic, to helping businesses and their communities achieve stronger economic growth. Held at the United States Olympic and Paralympic Museum in Colorado Springs, the event featured networking, a marketplace offering connections to local resources through Colorado Springs Chamber and EDC, the BBB of Southern Colorado, The Pueblo Economic Development Corp., and the Pikes Peak Small Business Development Center, as well as Comcast Business.

New AI-Powered Mobile App Delivers Early Prediction of Heart Attack or Stroke

Before Health Intelligence Ltd.

Before Health Intelligence, Ltd. today emerged from stealth and announced a new mHealth app called Antshrike ™ that uses AI to transform wearable device data into highly precise and specific predictive cardiovascular health warnings. As an iOS app, Antshrike uses proprietary AI algorithms to identify early warning signs of critical cardiovascular events, such as heart attacks or strokes, with high predictive accuracy for individuals at risk. The app processes biometric time-series data collected by commercially available Apple smart phones and smart watches, calculates individual risk of critical events in real time and predicts when and how changes in a patient’s health states may occur. By notifying patients of imminent danger in advance, Antshrike enables timely intervention by healthcare providers, paving the way for personalized medical intervention and treatment and improved medical outcomes. “In South America, the Antshrike bird warns primates of upcoming dangers,” said Before Health Intelligence CEO & co-founder Ekaterina Mitricheva, MD, PhD. “We developed our new digital health app by the same name to warn those at risk of major ischemic cardiovascular events before they take place. With cardiovascular disease as the number one cause of death worldwide, there is an urgent need to predict and prevent heart attacks and strokes.” The Antshrike mHealth app: Passively monitors health status without interrupting daily routines, social interactions and work habits Predicts the danger and timing of cardiovascular events with more than 85% accuracy in a personalized manner Uses proven science based on decades of research, more than 130 billion data points analyzed by Before Health Intelligence’s scientists, as well as open source CDC data from tens of thousands of individuals Assures HIPAA-compliant patient privacy by preprocessing individual patient data (not patient records) on a patient’s phone with anonymized preprocessed values that can never be traced back to any specific person Requires no manual input of data or reliance on expensive hospital equipment and procedures Assists healthcare providers in saving more lives since timely predictive interventions are known to reduce the probability of lasting effects or fatality Antshrike uses two layers of AI, static and dynamic, to calculate an individual’s risk of critical events in real-time. The static layer processes data entered by an individual to determine an initial risk score, and the machine learning algorithm is trained on over 500,000 CDC datapoints of approximately 23,000 individuals. The dynamic layer collects and analyzes biometric time-series from smart watches in real-time, uses the proprietary AI algorithm to identify early warning signs of critical state transitions, and then delivers a personalized, time-sensitive risk score for an upcoming major ischemic cardiovascular event. The freemium app is expected to be available in the U.S. in 2025. To become a partner or learn more about the product, visit https://www.before-intelligence.com/contact.

Interoperability vs Fragmentation: Why Cross-Chain Solutions Matter for the Future of DeFi

Elluminex

Ethereum has Uniswap, Binance has PancakeSwap and Solana has Jupiter. Despite being one of the largest Layer 1 platforms, TON still lacks a competitive and effective DeFi protocol. Let’s run the numbers on TON: $13.4 billion in market capitalization, 950 million users, and over 1 billion transactions. Experts believe that any project that captures the first-mover advantage could see incredible returns as the cycle progresses. This is where Elluminex comes into play. A state-of-the-art cross-chain protocol that unites isolated blockchains, bringing all the best opportunities in one place. With analysts tipping Elluminex as one of the hottest plays of the 2024/2025 cycle, let’s see why it’s special. Decentralization Shouldn’t Mean Division The Elluminex decentralized exchange is the ecosystem’s flagship feature. Through its innovative Cross-Chain Bridge, Elluminex acts as a meeting point between all major blockchains. This will allow users to effortlessly swap assets while enjoying high transaction speeds and the lowest possible fees. This also enhances liquidity as it’s sourced from across the various blockchains, resulting in minimal slippage, even in high-volume situations. Investors will be welcomed by a lean and intuitive interface, which will make trading a secure stress-free experience. To further improve ease of access and privacy, Elluminex does away with KYC verification and allows users to access the platform just by connecting their self-custodial wallets. Through this feature alone, Elluminex could change the game and set new standards in terms of usability, security, and scalability. But it doesn’t end here. How Elluminex Leaves The Competition In The Dust Elluminex users will have an additional edge in whale trading and investing, thanks to the exclusive Elluminex portfolio tracker. They will be able to keep track of all their assets and manage them in the most efficient way possible. Through this feature, users will also have access to real-time analytics. This will allow them to keep up with the latest market updates and make informed decisions based on raw, no-nonsense data. Moreover, Elluminex's intriguing premarket feature will grant early access to TON-based projects before they hit exchanges. Investors will have the opportunity to capitalize on the latest-released gems without having to wait for whales to load up first or become exit liquidity for insiders it is often the case. DeFi Education Furthermore, Elluminex understands that the primary reason hindering DeFi adoption is that the space is inherently complex. Many newcomers often feel intimidated as they try and make sense of its inner workings. With its convoluted terminology and often opaque mechanics, DeFi’s potential is limited by these unintended barriers of entry. The truth is simple, without education DeFi can’t grow. This is why Elluminex has made it a mission to demystify DeFi by fostering an inclusive and educational environment. This initiative will help users understand core concepts and assist them in making informed decisions throughout their crypto journey. The $ELX Token The Elluminex ecosystem is powered by the native $ELX token. Users will reap substantial rewards from engaging with the platform and its advanced staking and farming model. 50% of the $ELX supply will be available during the presale which is set to launch soon. The rest of the tokens will be allocated toward marketing efforts, rewards, liquidity, and exchange listings. In addition to this, the tokenomics of $ELX also comprise a burn mechanism, which will automatically remove tokens from circulation, ensuring robust price stability and long-term growth. Once the presale is live, users will have the opportunity to invest in a project that could reinvent DeFi. Now is the time to start paying attention! For more information about Elluminex visit the links below: Website: https://elluminex.com/ Twitter/X: https://x.com/elluminex Telegram: https://t.me/Elluminex Elluminex aims to be the first comprehensive DeFi hub on the TON blockchain, designed to revolutionize the DeFi landscape.

By leveraging the power of the TON blockchain, Elluminex seeks to offer unparalleled speed, security, and scalability, bringing DeFi to a network with over 950 million active users and over 1 billion recorded transactions.

Could Hybrid Crypto Cutoshi (CUTO) Put Ethereum Based Tokens Back On The Map?

Cutoshi

While Ethereum is making a mini-comeback during cryptocurrencies most bullish period of the year, Ethereum has largely succumbed to waning hype in 2024. As we enter into a meme super-cycle, Ethereum memes could single-handedly see Ethereum reach new all-time-highs. Pepe’s Coinbase listing perfectly showcases this, though for investors seeking considerable ROI, Cutoshi could be one of the most lucrative prospects during its presale. Cutoshi: The First Meme Token To Simplify DeFi For The Masses Aiming to be more than just a mere speculative meme token, at the forefront of Cutoshi’s ethos is to simplify DeFi for a wider audience. By extension, Cutoshi is able to appeal to a variety of demographics and experience levels, from whales and experienced traders, to brand new money entering the market as the bull run commences. This objective manifests through the ecosystem’s premier “Cutoshi Academy”, an all-exclusive educational platform that’s set to propagate a better future for cryptocurrency as aligned with Satoshi Nakamoti’s libertarian vision. By narrowing the knowledge gap and rendering complex blockchain concepts simple and digestible, the Academy empowers individuals to make informed decisions about their digital assets, and invest sensibly to maximize profits for the bull run. This educational initiative aligns with Cutoshi's mission to bring DeFi to the masses, fostering a more inclusive and decentralized financial future. At the heart of the Cutoshi ecosystem is its easy-to-navigate decentralized exchange (DEX). The multi-chain functionality of Cutoshi’s DEX ensures that users can seamlessly swap assets across various blockchain networks on a whim, saving both time and money. Cutoshi’s DEX is superior to CEX platforms, which rely on centralized entities and can be a hassle to use. This feature makes it easier for beginners and seasoned traders alike to participate in DeFi without the complexity often associated with inconvenient multi-chain platforms. All users need to do is connect their wallet, select the crypto they want to swap, and confirm the transaction. It’s that easy. Lucrative Incentives Bolster Cutoshi’s Bullish Outlook Cutoshi’s token farming mechanism is a core feature designed to reward community engagement. Users can complete quests, collect points, and claim rewards, turning participation into an engaging experience. This gamified approach incentivizes regular interaction with the platform and allows users to earn valuable CUTO tokens and exclusive perks. Unlike many DeFi projects, Cutoshi emphasizes shared success by redistributing a portion of its revenues back to the community. This includes buy-and-burn mechanisms to reduce the supply of CUTO tokens, driving scarcity and value for holders. Farming and staking rewards are structured to provide consistent returns, creating a sustainable income stream for all participants. This model ensures that the ecosystem’s growth translates into tangible benefits for its supporters, incentivizing Cutoshi’s community to partake in raids and contribute towards the marketing efforts of Cutoshi.

Bitcoin Sets Another Record, As This MemeFi Sensation Continues Innovating, Are Meme Coins Next To Pump?

Cutoshi

Bitcoin (BTC) has made headlines by surging above $90k after pro-crypto candidate Donald Trump won the US presidency. Following Bitcoin’s stellar performance, meme coins have started rallying in massive numbers, which means that meme season 2.0 is effectively starting now. A newcomer in the meme space, Cutoshi, is making waves with its unique utility and intriguing reward system, prompting many BTC holders to rotate profits into the viral presale of the native $CUTO token. Let’s discover why Cutoshi could revolutionize meme coins and bring massive price multipliers to early buyers. Bitcoin Teasing Another Run Above $90K Bitcoin (BTC) has once again surprised everyone over the past week by adding $20k to its previous $72k all-time high in a matter of days. This explosion in the Bitcoin price was mainly due to the “Trump Pump” as the crypto community calls the Trump effect on the crypto market. At press time, Bitcoin sells for $89,784 with a noteworthy 32% monthly increase and an 18% weekly increase. These numbers are impressive given the sheer size of Bitcoin’s market cap of $1.7 trillion, which requires immense amounts of liquidity for the price of BTC to rise higher. Despite Bitcoin traders taking home over $8 billion in profit in the past two days, Bitcoin’s price action remains relatively stable. This is mainly due to the bullish sentiment pervading the crypto community, supported by a massive $129 billion in futures trading volume recorded on centralized exchanges. Cutoshi Continues To Shine As Presale Nears $1 Million Milestone Cutoshi continues to rise as attention is shifting from majors to newer, undervalued projects that can yield massive price multipliers and mint new millionaires along the way. With another meme season ramping up, Cutoshi is set to see exponential gains thanks to its innovative framework that merges meme culture and DeFi utility. Cutoshi draws inspiration from two sources — its vibe and aesthetic are based on the Lucky Cats of Japanese folklore that are said to bring good fortune to businesses and households. Additionally, by embodying the values of privacy and decentralization, Cutoshi also echoes the teachings of Bitcoin creator Satoshi Nakamoto. At the heart of the Cutoshi ecosystem, users will find CUTO DEX, a cutting-edge decentralized exchange that brings together isolated blockchains, allowing for seamless P2P transactions that jump the middleman. This means near-instant swaps across a wide range of assets with low fees. One of Cutoshi ’s most intriguing features is the Cuto Farm system, powered by the $CUTO token. Users can immediately participate by completing fun missions and quests that are aimed at establishing Cutoshi’s presence in the crypto space. For their loyalty and efforts, they will receive Cuto points that can later be redeemed for more $CUTO once the token launches. Moreover, by staking their tokens and supporting the ecosystem, users will also have the opportunity to earn recurring rewards on autopilot. Another star feature that sets Cutoshi apart from the competition is the unique Cutoshi Academy. This is a learning hub that will lend a helping hand to beginners and teach them the fundamentals of DeFi, trading, and portfolio management. This initiative has already been praised as it greatly lowers entry barriers and demystifies aspects of the often confusing crypto world. Right now, stage 3 of the presale is live and $CUTO tokens are priced at $0.0259. At $850,000 in raised funds, demand is skyrocketing, with investors flocking to get an allocation at a discounted price. When taking into account all that this gem has to offer, it’s realistic to expect a monumental 2025 rally that could Cutoshi outperform many established majors such as Shiba Inu and Dogwifhat.
