TRON DAO Unveils TRON-Peg USD Coin: A New Gateway to Borderless Transactions

TRON DAO

Geneva, Switzerland, November 7, 2024 - TRON DAO has officially launched the TRON-Peg USD Coin on the TRON blockchain, an innovative cross-chain solution designed to streamline borderless transactions and broaden TRON’s stablecoin ecosystem. By facilitating seamless and efficient cross-chain transfers, TRON-Peg USD Coin expands the possibilities for users to leverage USDC across the TRON ecosystem. Efficient Cross-Chain Functionality TRON-Peg USD Coin enables seamless USDC transfers between Ethereum and TRON, serving as an essential stablecoin bridge. Qualified users can easily acquire TRON-Peg USD Coin through a streamlined cross-chain process: when USDC-ERC20 is deposited into Ethereum’s bridge contract, the system detects the transaction, mints an equivalent amount of TRON-Peg USD Coin on TRON, and transfers it directly to the user’s TRON address. Similarly, general users wishing to move TRON-Peg USD Coin back to Ethereum can initiate the process through the designated token contract on TRON. Cross-chain transactions between TRON and Ethereum can also be conducted through supported exchanges. Transparent and Secure with Free Cross-Chain Services TRON-Peg USD Coin offers users free cross-chain transaction services. Additionally, its reserve assets are fully transparent in real-time, ensuring that reserves consistently exceed the total supply. This guarantees that users can always redeem their USDC on Ethereum at a 1:1 ratio. Users can verify reserve assets in real-time. Security remains a top priority, with TRON-Peg USD Coin rigorously audited by ChainSecurity, a leading blockchain security company led by security experts from ETH Zurich. The comprehensive 24-page audit reinforces TRON’s commitment to user security and contract integrity. Ioannis Sachinoglou, lead engineer at ChainSecurity, stated: “This Tron-Peg USD Coin bridge audit allowed us to explore TRON’s cross-chain infrastructure in depth. We analyzed the bridge’s mechanisms, as well as the interactions between the TRON and the Ethereum networks. Collaborating closely with the TRON team, we worked to identify and address potential vulnerabilities, ultimately reinforcing the bridge’s robustness and enhancing user trust. We're looking forward to further collaborating with TRON and supporting the security of their ecosystem.” Shaping the Future of Stablecoin Technology With TRON's position as a major player in the stablecoin market, representing over one-third of the entire stablecoin supply, TRON DAO is committed to continuously refining TRON-Peg USD Coin with enhanced security and user-focused value. These enhancements aim to position TRON-Peg USD Coin as a trusted choice for secure, seamless transactions, empowering users worldwide.

This Ad-Tech Platform Pays Consumers To Recommend Products On Their Social Media, Effectively Doing What Airbnb And Uber Did In A New Industry

Benzinga

By Josh Enomoto, Benzinga Increasingly, the concept of democratization – both in the social and economic realms – has become a central rallying cry for society. Digital marketing platform Thumzup Media Corp (NASDAQ: TZUP), recently uplisted to Nasdaq, takes this principle and applies it to the advertising ecosystem. Rather than the typical top-down approach deployed in this arena, Thumzup turns that business model on its head. Under the “analog” paradigm of advertising, businesses were forced to rely on major agencies and media outlets. At the time, only the largest enterprises controlled mass media channels such as television, radio, newspapers and billboards. Essentially, product and service messaging was funneled through centralized and hierarchical networks. Under this construct, the actual consumers were merely relegated to passive receivers of information. However, the internet – especially social media – has ushered in a fresh framework for how advertisers can influence their target audience. Through various hubs of connectivity, individuals can foster product discovery through a bottom-up approach. Such peer-to-peer recommendations lend a certain weight of authenticity that celebrity endorsements may not quite be able to match and are the central focus of Thumzup’s vision. Best of all, to incentivize this organic engagement, Thumzup offers cash rewards to users. Effectively, consumers are rewarded for doing what they do naturally: making recommendations to their family and friends. On the other end of the spectrum, businesses can potentially see their advertising dollars go much further than they could with traditional celebrity endorsements, which carry high costs and unpredictable results. Disruption Is At The Heart Of Thumzup’s Vision While big businesses occupy the collective consciousness thanks to their legacy standing, it’s the category of emerging and mid-tier enterprises that offer a compelling opportunity for Thumzup. Currently, 33.2 million small businesses operate in the U.S., accounting for 99.9% of all firms. Among this group, data from 2021 revealed that about 45% purchase digital ads, with the average monthly expenditure per business reaching $534. However, because of the meteoric success of digital ads, more recent research indicates that 69% of small enterprises use the medium to find new customers. Even with the older numbers, if Thumzup is able to capture 10% of this market and receive 20% of the average monthly spending rate, its potential annual revenue could skyrocket to nearly $442.5 million. But with the growth in the ecosystem, the actual sales potential could be far higher. Although it’s an ambitious goal, the directive is tied to a compelling concept of disruption. Last year, Matter Communications reported that 69% of consumers trust recommendations stemmed from influencers, friends and family as opposed to narratives originating directly from brands. What’s even more startling, preference for celebrity influencers slipped to 11%, down sharply from a range of 17% to 22% in Matter’s 2020 report. Notably, even social media influencers – who benefit from grassroots sentiment – are starting to feel the heat of skepticism. As sponsored material becomes more commonplace in the content environment, consumers rightfully question whether product endorsements are truly authentic or sincere. Such a friction point in the trust dialogue opens the door for Thumzup. Fundamentally, the key driver for Thumzup is the decentralization of information. In contrast to a top-down approach where only the largest, centralized entities dictate the broader information flow, Thumzup empowers individual voices. In turn, those voices become amplified through its programmatic incentivization structure. As the company states on its website, consumer voices have value. In this case, Thumzup pays people to promote specific products or services on their social media accounts. Furthermore, the reward is tied to the volume and quality of the posts. This setup encourages detailed product feedback while businesses enjoy that expanded reach and the return on their advertising dollars. Proving The Potential By directly engaging end users, Thumzup aims to enliven the dead space occupying the economic connection points in the product/service value chain. Specifically, consumers can put their downtime to productive use through quality recommendations and getting paid for it. Businesses can better ensure that their messaging is reaching out to their target clients. In this manner, Thumzup is analogous to Uber Technologies Inc (NYSE: UBER) or Airbnb Inc (NASDAQ: ABNB). Both entities allowed regular people to become economic agents: ride-sharing drivers for the former and landlords (hosts) for the latter. With Thumzup, individual customers can effectively become marketing partners. In many ways, Thumzup is introducing the potential in an entirely new economy. Robert Steele, Chief Executive Officer of Thumzup, shared, “Our growth strategy includes expanding into new target markets, adding powerful features like an integration with Instagram Reels, enhancing attribution tools, and integrating additional social media platforms. These improvements are designed to make Thumzup even more attractive to advertisers, which we believe will help us reach our goal of a tenfold increase in advertisers over the next 12 months.” Since its launch, Thumzup has proven this potential through tangible outcomes. The company has paid out over $200,000 in cash for roughly 20,000 posts in its initial test area around Los Angeles, and the company reports that it has grown subscribers by 131% since January. These payouts serve as a direct testament to the platform's ability to incentivize users to create authentic content that reaches a broader audience. Additionally, repeat business is a key indicator of success. For example, the Harley-Davidson Inc (NYSE: HOG) dealership in Marina del Rey has renewed its campaign multiple times, showcasing the effectiveness of Thumzup's strategy for both brand exposure and customer engagement. The company’s first strategic investor also believes their range of products – which includes Star Trek brand wines – will benefit from Thumzup’s innovative approach. Such success demonstrates that Thumzup’s business model is applicable to multiple industries. Redefining Advertising Through Authentic Connections Thumzup is helping reshape the future of advertising by empowering everyday consumers to share genuine brand experiences. Through incentivizing real, peer-driven recommendations, the platform offers brands a powerful alternative to traditional advertising models. With its scalable approach, Thumzup is positioning itself to potentially transform how businesses connect with their audiences, driving more authentic engagement and lasting brand loyalty.

Unintentional Falls Number 1 Cause Of Death For Americans Over 65, 40% Of Americans Scared Of Walking Alone At Night – LogicMark Offers Solutions

Benzinga

By Meg Flippin, Benzinga The world can be a dangerous place whether you are out walking or living alone. Protecting yourself from attacks, emergencies or other calamities isn’t always that easy if there is no one around to help. Unintentional falls in the home are a major concern, being the number one cause of injury and death among people 65 and older. Safety concerns exist for individuals of all ages as they navigate life. Some 40% of Americans polled by Gallup said they would be scared walking alone at night in their neighborhoods; a thirty-year high. To address those concerns, companies are churning out remote monitoring devices, going after a market forecast to grow at a CAGR of 11.2% between now and 2028. But many are singularly focused, catering either to the aging population or to people who don’t feel safe in parking lots, getting in a ride-share or walking alone. One company going against the grain by offering solutions to both groups is LogicMark Inc. (NASDAQ: LGMK). The maker of personal emergency response systems (PERS ), health communications devices and IoT technologies has a suite of products designed to create a connected care platform that can help whether you are at home or out and about. Monitoring At Home And On The Go The Freedom Alert Mini is a compact, on-the-go safety device that offers a comprehensive set of life-saving features. With 4G LTE connectivity, at the push of a button, users can call for help everywhere there is cell service. LogicMark aims to ensure reliable communication even in situations where the user can’t speak. The company’s built-in patented fall detection technology detects falls and sudden movements, triggering an alert for help. Thanks to LogicMark’s geofencing technology, caregivers also receive alerts if their loved one moves beyond a virtual geographic boundary. GPS location service pinpoints exactly where a device is, sending help when the user is unable to speak or respond. Freedom Alert Mini connects to a 24/7 U.S.-based monitoring service that promptly contacts first responders and loved ones or caregivers when necessary. Companion Apple iOS and Android apps enable pairing to detect falls, engaging in two-way communication during an emergency and caregiving monitoring. Check out LogicMark’s investment deck here. Freedom Alert Plus is an in-home medical device that boasts several features. It includes patented fall detection, two-way communication during an emergency, and calls a 24/7 monitoring service. The device connects to in-home Wi-Fi, allowing users to reach emergency services at the press of a button or when a fall is detected. The Freedom Alert Plus companion app enables fall detection alerts, device pairing, two-way communication during an emergency, caregiver alerts, and more. No Strings Monitoring LogicMark also has a suite of devices that aim to provide safety without monitoring fees. Guardian Alert Plus is a 4G LTE-connected device that, with a press of a button, connects directly with 911 to dispatch first responders. This on-the-go device has 4G LTE coverage, two-way voice communication, and a long battery life, the company says. For in-home use, LogicMark has two devices. Freedom Alert allows users to connect with friends and family or 911 in an emergency. With the push of a button, the device can call up to four pre-programmed contacts and features 911 call forwarding. In emergencies, a family member on the line can press five to connect you directly with 911. Guardian Alert 911 connects users to 911 with the push of a button. One button means that even during a confusing or frightening moment, the user can easily call for emergency services or notify a caregiver. The device also supports two-way voice communication. Both devices use the customer’s landline to connect to emergency services. Guardian Alert 911 works within a 600-foot radius of the base unit. Freedom Alert and Guardian Alert 911 have long batteries that LogicMark says last three to six months based on battery saver settings. There’s An App For That LogicMark’s work goes beyond just making devices. It has also developed multiple personal safety apps to form a connected care platform. Their standalone app, Aster, turns mobile phones into personal safety devices. Aster is designed for people who are worried about their safety, whether in parking lots, on a date, walking down the street or in a rideshare. Users have four ways to get help: a Bluetooth button, a home screen slider for quick access to emergency services, a ‘Hold Until Safe’ button to arm the app, and the ‘Follow-Me’ feature to schedule alerts and check-ins. Once activated, the app requires you to enter a PIN to cancel if the threat becomes less urgent. Emergency services are alerted and dispatched to the phone’s GPS location. Users can add trusted followers for check-ins and schedule events that alert followers if they don’t check in on time. The app will call emergency services if you don’t check in before the timer is canceled. Aster’s Bluetooth button is a small device that clips to a purse, keychain or backpack strap that users can push to call for help without opening their phone. The button calls for help with three presses, a 24/7 monitoring service will answer and stay on the phone until users feel safe. The compact button has a five-month battery life. Whether you are at home or out and about, with LogicMark’s suite of medical alert devices and the Aster App, you can feel safe and secure no matter what stage of life you are in. From devices that have live monitoring, GPS location pinpointing and fall detection to ones that can contact your friends and family when you can’t, the company says it is striving to make the world safe. It is aiming to appeal to a growing base of older adults as well as innovating to attract younger generations. A multi-pronged approach to protecting a broad spectrum differentiates LogicMark in the industry, the company says, and is behind the company’s growth, in addition to business-to-business and business-to-government sales channels.
