Cutoshi Hits #1 Worldwide And In The USA – The Hype Behind $CUTO’s Explosive Growth

Cutoshi

Cutoshi, a memeFi project in presale, took X by storm yesterday as it went viral and took the number 1 trending spot worldwide and in the USA, for over 8 hours. This hype also spread worldwide, as $CUTO became the trending keyword for all countries. The term DeFi was also trending worldwide yesterday, showing that Cutoshi is proving itself to be one of the hottest decentralized crypto projects around. Meme Appeal Cutoshi is cute and catchy, bringing Lucky Cat energy to the blockchain and people’s digital assets. As crypto booms thanks to new all-time highs for Bitcoin, memecoins continue to dominate the market as the most profitable and engaged-with sector in crypto. And as of today, the meme coin market cap is at $105 billion according to CoinMarketCap, with a 24 hour trading volume of $60 billion. That shows us that a lot of people are trading memes right now. DOGE has been on a tear and has also been trending on X since the US elections, proving the enduring nature of important memecoins. MemeFi Hybrid Approach While DOGE has a first mover advantage as a memecoin, Cutoshi is new and in presale. There is another important difference between the two coins - utility. Dogecoin doesn’t have utility, or at least very little (it's accepted as payment in certain places, according to their website). Cutoshi, on the other hand, does. Cutoshi is currently building a cross-chain DEX to simplify swapping and trading on the blockchain, and a whole ecosystem revolving around the benefits of DeFi. The aim is to introduce people to DeFi and then help them to make the most out of it, and that’s why they are offering a learning academy to help people find out more in a fun way. $CUTO will be used throughout the ecosystem, ensuring that the token has true utility, which is essential for ensuring the price moves in the right direction. Fun And Community Is Key All good crypto projects have a loyal community. Decentralized exchanges like Uniswap and 1inch clearly have a loyal community. Cutoshi is currently engaging their growing community through quests and challenges such as meme-making. And because people love the fun of competition, they have built a leaderboard so that people can spur each other on. These quests accrue points, which will be swapped for $CUTO tokens, airdropped once the coin goes live. This ensures that all early community members are rewarded for their participation and can have more skin in the game. Over 1500 people have taken part in the quests within days of launch. Cutoshi Investors Are Early As anyone who’s taken a look at meme coins like Dogecoin and Shiba Inu knows, the ones who got in early profited the most, with DOGE up by an impressive 435,594% since its launch and SHIB up by an amazing 42,665,342%. Just $10 invested at this time in SHIB would have made a current holder over $4 million dollars! Although returns like this are exceptional, new coins are the way to get huge gains. Cutoshi is currently in presale phase; given the hype around it, it could be the next life-changing coin for wealth generation. For more information on the Cutoshi (CUTO) Presale: https://cutoshi.com/ Join and become a community member: https://twitter.com/CutoshiToken https://t.me/cutoshi Welcome to Cutoshi, the revolutionary meme coin, DeFi hub and educational platform inspired by the Lucky Cat and Satoshi Nakamoto’s teachings. Traditionally, people put the Lucky Cat in their homes and businesses to maximize its lucky powers and bring them good fortune and wealth. Now Cutoshi the Lucky Cat is on the blockchain bringing luck, prosperity, and wealth to your digital assets. Cutoshi is creating a path to financial freedom, for those who choose to honor the power of the Lucky Cat. Supporting the principles of freedom, privacy, anonymity, and monetary empowerment for the masses. Cutoshi aims to bring the benefits of blockchain to everyone.

Analysis of Top U.S. Sportsbooks Shows Long College Football Suspension Times When Compared to NFL According to Sports Odds Intelligence Firm Bettormetrics

Bettormetrics

Bettormetrics, a sports odds intelligence firm providing competitive sports odds data and insight to the sports betting industry, today released their latest report, a one-week comparison of suspension times between top operators during week eight of the college football season and week nine NFL games. The analysis found that while operators exhibit short suspensions during NFL games, there are still significant improvements to be made on suspension times during college football games. Suspension is when a sportsbook periodically shuts down betting lines in a sporting event to readjust the odds based on activity within the event, while uptime is the amount of time they are accepting live wagers during the game. Bettormetrics’ analysis found that DraftKings and FanDuel were suspended for the least and second least amount of time during NFL games, respectively, and the two operators flipped when it came to college football – with FanDuel leading the operators that were analyzed. DraftKings, who was previously noted as a market leader in past Bettormetrics’ reports on NBA and NFL season-long suspension times, suffered the biggest drop off during college games when compared to its NFL suspension times. On average, operators' suspension times were 8.7% worse during college games. Hard Rock saw the smallest drop in performance in comparison. “The NFL is clearly the American bettor’s favorite competition so it is only a matter of time before sportsbooks shift their focus to its younger sibling, college football, seeking improvements in suspension, uptime and overall trading performance,” said Sabin Brooks, Bettormetrics’ Chief Revenue Officer. “Those who master suspension in college games will ultimately come out on top. Doing so is a win-win because the bettor will have an improved betting experience meaning they will keep coming back and the operator will be able to bring in more handle, meaning a fly wheel of better product, customer experience and sportsbook profitability.” “While there are challenges with the availability, quality and speed of scouting data for college football, there is clear demand for betting on NCAA football. As such, operators are going to need to find solutions to overcome the tremendous suspension differences between the NFL and college football,” said Robert Urwin, Bettormetrics’ co-founder and CEO. “While we recognize that there are significantly more college games every weekend during football season than NFL, there is work to be done. With an estimated gross gaming revenue of over $800 million coming in during college football season, sportsbook operators will continue to lose out on potential revenue unless suspension times are addressed.” ABOUT BETTORMETRICS Bettormetrics is an innovative company providing competitive sports odds intelligence and insight to the sports betting industry. Bettormetrics’ Trading Analytics Platform is a SAAS product supporting sportsbook trading desks with cutting edge insight and analysis on the entire event life cycle, helping sportsbooks, data suppliers and B2B platforms gain an edge on competitors and ensure no profits are left on the table.

Customer Wins Fuel Triple-Digit Q3 Revenue Growth For Aeva Technologies, Are More Wins On The Horizon?

Benzinga

By Meg Flippin, Benzinga The world is becoming more automated, and LiDAR technology is playing a key role in helping make that happen. At Aeva Technologies Inc. (NYSE: AEVA), the company reports it is also gaining share as more customers transition to its next-generation FMCW 4D LiDAR technology. This is reflected in Aeva’s recently reported third-quarter results, with the company delivering triple-digit year-over-year revenue growth and several customer wins for its September-ending quarter. Aeva makes advanced LiDAR technology that uses a low-power continuous laser beam to measure range and velocity simultaneously. Aeva says this technology unlocks new levels of safety and automation by instantly discriminating between moving and non-moving points and knowing the precise velocity of objects in motion. This edge, along with other FMCW advantages not found in traditional 3D time-of-flight LiDAR solutions, garnered Aeva interest and customer wins in the third quarter. Revenue Growth On Display Take its revenue for starters. Aeva reported revenue of $2.3 million, up 178% from the year-ago third quarter. Aeva ended the quarter with $259.8 million of liquidity, bolstering its position to continue to grow the business. “Aeva in Q3 continued to gain momentum across multiple fronts as more customer programs and industries look to adopt Aeva's unique 4D LiDAR technology to enable next-generation solutions,” said Soroush Salehian, co-founder and CEO at Aeva during a conference call to discuss third-quarter results with Wall Street. “From new production awards to key milestones achieved towards production with existing partners and progress on securing additional wins, Aeva achieved major accomplishments this quarter.” New Contracts Fueling Demand During the third quarter, Aeva inked a multi-year sensor supply deal with The Indoor Lab, a LiDAR perception and analytics solutions company. Indoor Lab operates a LiDAR analytics platform used to improve safety, security and operational efficiency for major U.S. airports, mass transit railways, agriculture and smart infrastructure at theme parks and other large venues across the U.S. The multi-year agreement offers multiple tens of millions of dollars in revenue potential over just the next few years alone, the company said. The deal marks the first industrial customer production win for Atlas, Aeva’s next-generation 4D LiDAR. The sensor shipments have already started with a planned ramp-up in 2025 to support multiple projects at scale, the companies reported. “This is an exciting expansion for Aeva that offers meaningful revenue potential and builds on our first win in security earlier this year,” said Salehian. During the quarter, it also secured a win with a major European passenger vehicle original equipment manufacturer (OEM). The unnamed OEM selected Aeva’s 4D LiDARs because of their ability to collect velocity data which the OEM is using to validate its next-generation vehicle automation systems, reports Aeva. Importantly, on top of that, Aeva continued to work toward finalizing the RFQ for a global top 10 passenger OEM’s vehicle program in addition to making progress on other RFQs in the passenger vehicle market. On the trucking front, Aeva is helping companies make self-driving trucks a reality, including its $1 billion dea l with Daimler Truck AG and Torc Robotics, an independent subsidiary of Daimler Truck. Through the multi-year OEM deal, Aeva’s 4D LiDAR is the exclusive long range and ultra long range LiDARs for Daimler Truck’s Class 8 Freightliner Cascadia autonomous truck platform, which, together with Torc’s autonomous driving stack, will enable highway speed autonomy. These are heavy-duty trucks that spend most of their time on interstates hauling cargo to and fro. The companies see heavy-duty trucking as an area rife for autonomous vehicles given the severe shortages of drivers in that segment of the industry. During the quarter Torc, using Aeva’s LiDAR technology, successfully validated fully driverless operations at highway speeds up to 65 miles per hour, a key milestone in the commercialization plan for Daimler Truck’s autonomous truck production program by 2027, reported Aeva. The Key: Speeding Up Production To meet all the demand Aeva is seeing, the company said that during the quarter, it pulled forward the first shipments of Aeva Atlas, its production-intent product, by approximately two quarters. Aeva is currently implementing plans to scale production for next year. “Aeva continues to convert the growing interest in our unique 4D LiDAR technology to new wins while also achieving critical milestones for our existing production programs,” said Soroush Salehian, Co-Founder and CEO at Aeva. “With more industries looking to adopt FMCW technology, we made the strategic decision and executed on pulling forward first shipments of Atlas to the third quarter to meet more of our strong demand. We believe this further places Aeva on the path to leading the market and expanding our commercial momentum with additional wins in automotive, industrial and beyond.” Learn more about Aeva Technologies Inc. by checking out its investors deck here.

Blackrock Bitcoin ETF Sees Outflow After U.S. Election Results, Tron Integration Causes A Stir As Cutoshi Hits $800K Mark

Cutoshi

Blackrock Bitcoin ETF Sees Outflow After U.S. Election Results, Tron Integration Causes A Stir As Cutoshi Hits $800K Mark The US presidential election race is over, and the atmosphere in the crypto market is one of glee as the market warms up to the news of Donald Trump’s presidency. Bitcoin (BTC), as expected, was one of the first to hit new heights, and the rest of the market followed accordingly. But prior to all that spike in the BTC price, Bitcoin ETFs were on a streak of outflows. Even Tron (TRX) is yet to join the profit train, but Cutoshi (CUTO) is trending among traders. Despite Bitcoin Price Surge, Bitcoin ETFs Dip The US elections were supposed to be a boost to the Bitcoin ETFs, but unlike the Bitcoin price, they were on a dip in the run-up to the election. The iShares Bitcoin Trust led the losses at the start of the week, with $44.2 million in outflows even before election day. BlackRock and ten of the other ETFs posted $116.8 million outflows on election day, led by the Fidelity Wise Origin Bitcoin Fund. It was a rare occurrence for most of the ETFs, especially BlackRock stating only its sixth day of loss since its launch in January. Their fortunes changed with the election results, when the BTC price broke past its $75,000 resistance. The Bitcoin ETFs recorded over a billion dollars in inflows on election day, with BlackRock seeing injections up to $1.1 billion on that day. The next few days will be crucial as the market anticipates further surges in the BTC price. Tron Integrations See Chainlink Oracle Links And ETH-TRX Bridges Tron (TRX) founder Justin Sun announced the introduction of Chainlink's oracle feeds to the Tron blockchain to increase security to its DApps, typically JustLend and JustStable. Both DeFi apps are worth about $6.5 billion on the network. Sun made the statement at the Chainlink SmartsCon event in Hong Kong, of which Tron (TRX) was a silver sponsor. The founder stated that the TRON crypto network was going to join in the Chainlink Scale Program, integrating the oracles to also provide developers with access to reliable oracle services, as well as opportunities for the stablecoins and RWAs locked on the blockchain. For the USDC on Tron (TRX), there are new bridges connecting the network with Ethereum through the TRON-Peg USD coin. The token facilitates smoother stablecoin transfer between both chains, contributing to the growing wave of interoperability that is taking over the DeFi space. The TRON price is currently trading at a weekly 3.59% loss, but the new development on the project could soon drive the TRON price into bullish trends. Cutoshi: Meme Coin Combined With DeFi Utilities Cutoshi’s origin is firmly rooted in meme and DeFi, sporting the lucky charm the Lucky Cat and blockchain principles from Bitcoin (BTC) creator Satoshi Nakamoto's teachings. The Decentralized Exchange platform is an avenue for users, especially the meme enthusiasts on the ecosystem, to access token swap and exchange services without leaving the interface. The traffic and insecurity of current exchanges makes Cutoshi's DEX a great alternatives option for traders. Another standout feature of the Cutoshi (CUTO) project will be its token farming. Users earn tokens by participating in challenges and completing tasks to accumulate points. These points can then be redeemed into CUTO tokens to boost investors' crypto portfolios. The token farming is already live, and more than 1500 users are already actively raking in rewards. The $CUTO token presale has raised over $800,000 so far. This traction doesn’t look like it’s going to slow down anytime soon. CUTO Attracts Massive Investors Inflow Bitcoin (BTC) and TRON (TRX) have experienced contrasting fates recently. The Bitcoin price is touching new highs, and TRX is still deep in bullish waters with TRON’s recent integration. The Cutoshi project is attracting investor interest with its presale and CUTO farming features that let users earn while having fun. The new meme coin could potentially deliver bigger gains than other top meme coins. For more information on the Cutoshi (CUTO) Presale: https://cutoshi.com/ Join and become a community member: https://twitter.com/CutoshiToken https://t.me/cutoshi Welcome to Cutoshi, the revolutionary meme coin, DeFi hub and educational platform inspired by the Lucky Cat and Satoshi Nakamoto’s teachings.
