2023 Entrepreneur One Bonus Fulfilled. 2024 E1 Bonus Opportunity Closing Soon. Don’t Miss Out!  The Markethive Quest Will Make History. Will You Join Us? 

Markethive is unyielding in its pursuit of innovation, striving for excellence in creating a groundbreaking platform that surpasses conventional social media and marketing tools. By prioritizing user experience, Markethive integrates advanced technologies that enable efficient broadcasting, expanding your reach and influence. Markethive's newly introduced Wallet, which serves as a comprehensive financial and accounting center, draws comparisons to a bank due to its capabilities, assets within it, and high level of security. 

By embracing the cottage industry concept, Markethive creates opportunities for individuals to achieve financial independence within a sovereign and merit-based environment. This unique concept is entrepreneurial at its finest and is exclusive to Markethive, but its impact extends beyond the platform to the broader online community and cryptocurrency domain.

Markethive Has Delivered

Markethive, as promised, has delivered a highly complex, unique financial system unfathomable to most. This system is robust, impenetrable, and represents the future of serving entrepreneurs worldwide. Our progress has been made possible by the unwavering support and contributions of the Entrepreneur One community and ILP holders.
 
These individuals recognize the tumultuous state of the world and believe that Markethive's vision holds the key to freedom of speech and financial independence for those who embrace its framework. By leveraging Markethive's tools and systems, businesses can flourish, and individuals can secure a brighter future for themselves and their communities.

The Entrepreneur One members (E1) also gain advantages from Markethive's generosity through the Initial Loan Procurement or Incentivized Loan Program (ILP), positioning themselves for long-lasting financial prosperity through the income generated by Markethive's retail products. Markethive's various sources of revenue will supply the funds required to make interest payments to E1s and ILP participants.

Entrepreneur One Loyalty Bonuses

Accordingly, Markethive rewards the loyalty of Entrepreneur One members by granting them annual bonuses in the form of ILPs. Note that the 2023 bonus of one whole ILP to each E1 associate who has maintained their subscription for the past 12 months has been credited to your wallet. 

The 2024 bonus, which consists of one full ILP and 1000 Hivecoins, was recently announced. This reward will be given in January 2025 after a 12-month period. Only Entrepreneur Ones are eligible for this initiative, but for a short time, free members can upgrade to an E1 membership for $100 per month. To qualify for the bonus, members must maintain an active subscription for 12 consecutive months, and they will receive one complete ILP and 1000 HVC in January 2025.

You have until January 31st, 2024, to take advantage of this offer and secure an Entrepreneur One subscription, making you eligible for the bonus. Time is of the essence, as less than two weeks remain before this opportunity expires.

It’s important to note that Markethive does not engage with prominent venture capitalists to secure funding. Instead, we depend on our community, as we prefer to contribute back to the community. The ILP can be likened to shares in the company. The only difference is that it functions as a loan from you to Markethive, considered an assumable note. Since it is a debt instrument, it is not subject to taxation.

Despite the significant advancements we have achieved in the advancement of our system, there are still crucial elements that require completion before we can proceed into the retail products phase. These products will yield substantial profits for Markethive and its entrepreneurial contributors. Thus, your assistance is still vital to help us reach this goal. 

Entrepreneurship Threatened

Entrepreneurship is being threatened throughout the world by a collectivistic ideology of the 1%. The global elites are infiltrating governments globally with the imperative to assist them in their quest to fix the issues in the world, such as poverty (among other matters), with the notion of equality, diversity, and inclusiveness. 

However, they are killing the free market and pure capitalism. Not cronyism, which, unfortunately, many believe is capitalism, but true capitalism in which entrepreneurs thrive. An entrepreneurial world fosters growth of all kinds: personal, industrial, financial, and creative. It also encourages critical thinking, freedom of expression, sovereignty, and liberty for all. This attempt at oppression in Western countries, where freedom is sacrosanct, has been in execution for decades, with an awakened minority daring to stand up to them and their corruption.  
  
One Historic Speech That Says It All

Several speeches and quotes throughout history have deeply moved global society and invoked a sense of wisdom in an attempt to change the world. However, these speeches have been brushed aside by the evil globalists, who are virtue signaling well-being for humanity while actively devising the complete opposite.  

President John F Kennedy had a profound impact on citizens across the world as he stood against tyranny and fascism. He was a true leader and humanitarian who cared for society but couldn’t do it alone. He asked his fellow Americans, “We the people,” to join him in a stoic effort to defend Freedom so that civilization could enjoy the blessings of a fruitful life. The following is an excerpt from President Kennedy’s heartfelt speech in the Inaugural Address in 1961. 

"…Now, the trumpet summons us again. Not as a call to bear arms, though arms we need. Not as a call to battle, though in battle we are, but a call to bear the burden of a long twilight struggle year in and year out, rejoicing in hope, patient in tribulation, a struggle against the common enemies of man ― tyranny, poverty, disease, and war itself. Can we forge against these enemies, a grand and global alliance?  North and South, East and West that can assure a more fruitful life for all mankind. Will you join in that historic effort? 

In the long history of the world, only a few generations have been granted the role of defending freedom in its hour of maximum danger. I do not shrink from this responsibility; I welcome it. 

I do not believe that any of us would exchange places with any other people or any other generation. The energy, the faith, the devotion, which we bring to this endeavor will light our country and all who serve it, and the glow from that fire can truly light the world. 

And so, my fellow Americans, ask not what your country can do for you; ask what you can do for your country. My fellow citizens of the world, ask not what America will do for you but what together we can do for the freedom of man. 

Finally, whether you are citizens of America or citizens of the world, ask of us here the same high standard of strength and sacrifice which we ask of you. With a good conscience, our only sure reward with history, the final judge of our deeds, let us go forth to lead the land we love, asking His blessing and His help, but knowing that here on Earth, God's work must truly be our own."

– J F Kennedy. Inaugural Address, – January 20th 1961

The essence of the passage above correlates with Markethive and its Divinely inspired vision to provide a haven for freedom of speech, personal and financial sovereignty, and a God-given right to prosperity, abundance, and well-being.  We are the generation chosen to fight for and deliver this vision in these dark times. 

In the spirit of what President Kennedy said to his congregation, the energy, faith, and devotion we bring to Markethive’s endeavor will light our ecosystem and all who serve it, and the glow from that fire can truly light the world. Additionally, ask of us here at Markethive the same high standard of strength and sacrifice that we ask of you. 

Thomas Prendergast, founder and CEO, has dedicated his life and every last penny to the Markethive vision, a truly selfless undertaking to lift entrepreneurs and restore the spirit being stripped away by oppressive measures. We boldly declare our determination to remain unyielding against oppressive rulers in the international arena. We refuse to be deterred by the ideologies of communist regimes or the ambitions of the global elite seeking to establish a new global order. So we ask of you, will you join us in this historic effort? 

So, Will You Join Us In This Historic Effort? 

Every one of us is engaged in this shared vision of a global entrepreneurial sanctuary that champions individual freedom. Many of you have been indispensable in shaping our journey thus far. We've made tremendous strides in building this system and are now on the cusp of sharing it with the world. However, we require additional support to realize our vision fully.

We need more of you who possess the power to drive us forward by obtaining an Entrepreneur Account or reinstating your existing Entrepreneur One account. Alternatively, you can also purchase an extra Entrepreneur One account. Together, we can reach new heights and make a lasting impact on the world.   

Remember, by subscribing to Entrepreneur One, you are lending funds to Markethive and supporting its mission to create a cutting-edge platform that will revolutionize the way we network and do business. As a subscriber, you'll play a crucial role in shaping the future of entrepreneurship and reap substantial financial rewards for your commitment and perseverance.

Rather than surrendering to obscurity, we are constructing a realm that illuminates the path and unites entrepreneurs and fellow visionaries to establish a more ethical and transparent business environment. ― An ecosystem that contributes to your livelihood and empowers you with financial freedom.

May God grant us all with wisdom, faith, and serenity.

Gold gains as Investors realign focus from the Fed to the Middle East conflict teaser image

Gold futures hit an intraday low of $2004.60 yesterday and closed just off of that low at

$2006.50. The $23 decline was largely in response to the retail sales report which

revealed that consumer sales rose by 0.6% month over month in December. This would

be the second consecutive day of strong price declines in gold.

On Tuesday, January 16, gold futures declined by $21.40. The strong selloff was the

result of dollar strength a gain of + 0.75%, which occurred following comments made by

Governor Christopher Waller, one of the Fed’s twelve voting members at a speech at

the Brookings Institution. His speech reinforced what Chairman Powell said at his press

conference in December.

His statements spoke to counter the unrealistic optimism by many market participants

regarding the Fed cutting rates at the March FOMC meeting. He said that while interest

rate cuts are likely this year, the central bank can take its time relaxing monetary policy.

Furthermore, He addressed the fact during previous cycles the FOMC cut rates quickly

and often by large amounts adding that, “I see no reason to move as quickly or rapidly

as in the past”.

Today market participants shifted their focus from the Federal Reserve as they await

further clarity on the Fed’s future interest rate path and instead focused on the potential

that the Middle East conflict will continue to escalate. Continued attacks in the southern

Red Sea by the Houthis a military proxy of Iran, as well as yesterday’s military action by

Iran. Iran fired missiles into Iraq, Syria, and Pakistan killing at least six civilians.

The escalation of the conflict in the Middle East intensified the allure of the haven asset

gold. As of 5:35 PM ET the most active February contract is up $15.10 or 0.75% and

fixed at $2021.60. It seems that the current major support level at $2000 per ounce is

holding and is providing a price low that attracts investors.

Wishing you as always good trading

Building the Markethive Kingdom for the 2024 launch

Leave a comment

Twenty-six years ago, the Lord set me on a path to build a kingdom for the end times. Twenty-six years ago, the end times seemed so far away, a distant reality.  

 

So we set about building it – We scaled mountain after mountain, we crossed valley after valley, and we built a secure system that delivers email unlike anything else. It delivers almost 100% directly to the inbox. 

 

We built a state-of-the-art inbound marketing system that became a social network of fellow entrepreneurs working together for a common cause to build an ecosystem to stand the test of time in what is the end times era prophesied centuries ago—an out-of-control political world that is out to tear down and destroy entrepreneurs. 

 

We built a system that will boldly stand against that agenda, stand tall in the mountains, and be this blinding light of God's glory of entrepreneurs that will never ever go away. 

 

We built a system that will broadcast the word of freedom to every corner of the world. This year, we need you more than we have ever needed you because it is this year, we're going to kick off this huge system and launch it into something the world has never seen. 

 

The world is going to discover a system that has been built by the Breath of God. A vision that will create a sanctuary for our brothers and sisters who are entrepreneurs who wish to build a better life. Who wish to build a solid family of like-minded individuals, who wish to build a home that is stable, secure, and financially viable, that won’t be ripped out from under them and canceled by the woke mind virus that is proliferating in every sector of every industry. 

 

We have built that system, and we are about to disclose it to the entire world, and we need you. We need every single one of you to pull out a little more to go get an Entrepreneur Account, to take the Entrepreneur One account you already have, and restore it or reactivate it. To buy additional Entrepreneur One accounts. 

 

These E1 subscriptions are loans to Markethive to assist us with development as we build this unparalleled system to eclipse systems like LinkedIn. The financial return you will receive on this is going to be massive, and you are part of this. 

 

We're all part of this vision and want to reward your spirit of determination, your foresight, and your mettle that continues to stand up for all our freedoms and autonomy. Your contributions are important to drive this vision to the next level of building the retail giant of liberty on a massive global scale.

 

We are making a statement here that we will not be stopped by tyrants of the world. We will not be stopped by the agendas of the communists and the global elites’ new world order. 

 

We will become a system that will exist in every nation and every country in the world. We will become a kingdom built on thousands and thousands of cloud systems scattered worldwide, underpinned by blockchain, crypto-energized, and a database system that will withstand a community of millions and terabytes of creative contentㅡa database system that cannot be stopped. 

 

So I have to ask you. What are you going to do? Are you going to be part of this? To contribute financial support is to be that voice that will never give up or go quietly into the dark. 

 

Instead, build the kingdom that will light up the way to stand with the other entrepreneurs, building towards a better way to freely conduct business in an open, honest, and transparent environment. A meritocratic social network of critical thinkers that is so needed in these dark times of subliminal brainwashing. An ecosystem that contributes to your livelihood and financial freedom.  

 

I have dedicated my entire life to this moment, to this building of this Markethive vision. I have spent my entire life putting every penny I have into it. Many of you have, too, and I ask you: Give more; let's make this big. Let's blow it up in 2024. Let the giant rise out of the ocean in 2024, along with the millions of multitudes of entrepreneurs who say we will not go away.

 

Thank you. God bless you.
Thomas Prendergast CEO

Fed rate cuts could push gold prices up 20% this year, but silver will jump 48% – AuAg Fund teaser image

(Kitco News) – Although gold has started the new year on a quiet note as prices consolidate above $2,000 an ounce, one investment firm expects a sequence of new all-time highs as both gold and silver embark on a long-term bull market.

In their recently published 2024 outlook, analysts at AuAg Funds said they expect to see a 20% rally in gold prices this year, pushing the market past $2,400 an ounce.

The Sweden-based investment firm expects a shift in the Federal Reserve’s monetary policy to drive the rally in precious metals.

“We believe that central banks will shift away from rate hikes and adopt a more accommodative policy stance in 2024, which will catalyze a substantial upswing in gold prices for the foreseeable future,” the analysts said in the report.

The firm said that as the Fed leads the world in rate cuts this year, the U.S. dollar will weaken, creating another tailwind for gold.

However, gold has struggled in recent days, with prices testing support just above $2,000 an ounce as markets start to lower their expectations for a potential rate cut in March. So far gold prices have dropped about 3% since the start of the new year.

As bullish as the fund is on gold, they expect to see silver outperform this year.

“In this emerging bull market, expected to last many years, we predict the gold-to-silver ratio will drop below 30:1, setting an initial goal for 2024 at 70:1,” the analysts said. “Should gold appreciate by 20%, it would end the year at USD 2,475, and with a gold-to-silver ratio of 70:1, silver would close at USD 35, equating to a 48% return.”

As gold and silver are expected to rise, the firm said investors should also pay attention to the mining sector.

“Gold miners are historically undervalued relative to gold, a trend likely to reverse and overshoot during the forthcoming secular gold bull market,” the analysts said. “Gold miners are also historically undervalued compared to the S&P 500, presenting a unique and attractive entry point.”

With higher gold prices driving margins, the analysts noted that mining companies have healthy balance sheets. In the current environment, AuAg expects smaller and mid-cap producers to outperform the mega-cap companies.

Gold, silver down as USDX sharply up, Treasury yield rise

Our goal is to help people make informed market decisions through in-depth reporting, daily market roundups, interviews with prominent industry figures, comprehensive coverage (often exclusive) of important industry events and analyses of market-affecting developments.

Gold, silver down as USDX sharply up, Treasury yield rise teaser image

(Kitco News) – Gold and silver prices are lower in midday U.S. trading Tuesday, pressured by strong gains in the U.S. dollar index and a rise in U.S. Treasury yields. February gold was last down $15.60 at $2,035.90. March silver was last down $0.214 at $23.115.

U.S. stock index futures are lower at midday. As U.S. traders get back from a long holiday weekend (U.S. markets were closed Monday for the Martin Luther King holiday.) they found elevated risk aversion in the marketplace following weekend Houthi attacks on vessels in the Red Sea, and U.S. and U.K. retaliatory air strikes in Yemen. That helped to push the U.S. dollar index sharply higher today.

In other news, China’s central bank leaving its monetary policy unchanged disappointed those looking for more stimulus amid recent downbeat economic data from the world’s second-largest economy.

The key outside markets today see the U.S. dollar index sharply higher and hitting a four-week high. Nymex crude oil prices are near steady and trading around $72.75 a barrel. Meantime, the yield on the benchmark U.S. Treasury 10-year note is presently fetching 4.043%.

Technically, February gold futures bulls still have the overall near-term technical advantage. Prices are in a three-month-old uptrend on the daily bar chart. Bulls’ next upside price objective is to produce a close above solid resistance at $2,100.00. Bears' next near-term downside price objective is pushing futures prices below solid technical support at $2,000.00. First resistance is seen at $2,050.00 and then at today’s high of $2,062.80. First support is seen at today’s low of $2,034.60 and then at $2,025.00. Wyckoff's Market Rating: 6.5.

March silver futures bears have the overall near-term technical advantage. A six-week-old downtrend is in place on the daily bar chart. Silver bulls' next upside price objective is closing prices above solid technical resistance at $24.895. The next downside price objective for the bears is closing prices below solid support at the November low of $22.26. First resistance is seen at today’s high of $23.50 and then at last week’s high of $23.72. Next support is seen at $23.00 and then at last week’s low of $22.63. Wyckoff's Market Rating: 3.5.

March N.Y. copper closed up 320 points at 377.25 cents today. Prices closed nearer the session high today. The copper bears have the overall near-term technical advantage. Prices are in a fledgling downtrend on the daily bar chart. Copper bulls' next upside price objective is pushing and closing prices above solid technical resistance at 390.00 cents. The next downside price objective for the bears is closing prices below solid

technical support at 365.00 cents. First resistance is seen at last week’s high of 384.05 cents and then at 388.00 cents. First support is seen at last week’s low of 373.50 cents and then at the December low of 372.90 cents. Wyckoff's Market Rating: 4.0.

SOL On Verge Of Ultimate Price Explosion To All-Time Highs As Solana Plans To Unveil Cheaper Saga Successor

SOL On Verge Of Ultimate Price Explosion To All-Time Highs As Solana Plans To Unveil Cheaper Saga Successor

By Brenda Ngari – January 16, 2024

Solana Mobile, the firm behind the first-ever smartphone with an integrated crypto wallet, is preparing to unveil its second crypto-ready smartphone following Saga’s unexpected success. The latest reports say the new phone will have features similar to the original phone but will be cheaper and have different hardware specifications.

Solana Saga 2.0: A More Affordable Crypto Phone

Solana is reportedly preparing to release yet another crypto-forward smartphone.

This ambitious project follows the skyrocketing sales for the Solana Saga, which was unveiled in 2023. The phone first went on sale in May last year, and four months later in August, its price was reduced to $599 from $1000. Today, an unopened Saga device fetches a whopping $3,200 on marketplaces such as eBay. Solana expects the new high-end Android smartphone to help offset the high demand for Saga.

Sales of the Solana Saga phone were initially underwhelming, but the device quickly sold out after crypto traders realized that they came with a free airdrop of BONK meme coins valued at more than the cost of the phone itself.

Like the original Saga phone, the successor comes with the same crypto-friendly features, including a built-in crypto wallet, decentralized application (dapp) store, and customized Android software. However, the new crypto phone will be much cheaper. This strategic move seeks to attract a wider audience beyond early adopters and ardent Solana fans.

Besides coming at a cheaper price point, the soon-to-launch smartphone is also expected to have different hardware compared to its predecessor Saga.

Another Phenomenal Rally Underway?

The news of a more affordable follow-up to the Saga smartphone comes as the price of the SOL token cools off following a parabolic rally last year. At the time, the massive gains in the SOL price were accompanied by an increase in trading activity on the Solana network, which momentarily saw trading volumes on SOL-based decentralized exchanges (DEXs) flip that of Ethereum for the first time in history.

SOL is now trading at $96.36 per coin after topping $122.90 last December. Moreover, Solana DEX volume has slipped to $615 million in the past 24 hours, just a little over half that of Ethereum’s $1 billion, according to data provided by DefiLlama.

While the performance of the wider crypto market undoubtedly plays a key role, sky-high interest in Solana smartphones could once again light a fire under SOL bulls. There is a possibility that the new phone will spark mass adoption and propel SOL to new heights.

Hedge funds are selling their gold but they are not bearish

Hedge funds are selling their gold, but they are not bearish

Our goal is to help people make informed market decisions through in-depth reporting, daily market roundups, interviews with prominent industry figures, comprehensive coverage (often exclusive) of important industry events and analyses of market-affecting developments.

Hedge funds are selling their gold, but they are not bearish teaser image

Volatility surrounding U.S. interest rates is taking its toll on gold prices as hedge funds liquidated their bullish bets but remain hesitant to make any significant bearish bets, according to the latest trade data from the Commodity Futures Trading Commission.

Although gold prices have managed to hold solid support above $2,000 an ounce, some analysts note that shifting momentum in the marketplace could weigh on prices in the near term.

In an interview with Kitco News, Craig Erlam, senior market analyst at OANDA, said that he sees the price action in the precious metal as a “tossup” as the market lacks a catalyst to drive prices higher.

The CFTC's disaggregated Commitments of Traders report for the week ending Jan. 6 showed money managers decreased their speculative gross long positions in Comex gold futures by 20,051 contracts to 134,333. At the same time, short positions increased by only 639 contracts to 45,874.

The latest selling pressure has pushed gold’s net length to a two-month low. The precious metal is net long by 88,459 contracts. However, the market has been reasonably stable as prices have traded in a range between $2,000 and $2,050 an ounce.

Some analysts note that gold is consolidating as the market has no clear guidance regarding the Federal Reserve’s monetary policy. Markets see a more than 70% chance of a rate cut in March; however, some central bankers have pushed back on that timing, even as they prepare for eventual easing.

Commodity analysts at TD Securities noted that economic data has not provided any clear indication and is adding to the market volatility and uncertainty.

“Investors reduced length as Fed funds futures sold off and doubts emerged surrounding the early timing and magnitude of the pending policy rate reductions. Strong labor markets are associated with continued inflation pressures. And with core CPI much above the two percent target, the market concluded that a very early Fed easing is not in the cards,” the analysts said in a note Friday. “But with the most recent production prices coming in at below expectations, the market is once again going long, as it anticipates an early end to restrictive policy. It is likely that there will be data-driven volatility as gold trends to our $2,200/oz Q2 target.”

Commodity analysts noted that although $4.1 billion flowed out of the gold market last week, the selling pressure has firmly pushed the market outside of overbought territory.

Although the gold market appears to be running out of steam, waiting for the Federal Reserve’s long-expected pivot, analysts note that investors are reluctant to take any major short position in the precious metal.

Some analysts note that renewed chaos in the Middle East as U.S. and U.K. militaries U.S. and UK militaries bomb Houthi militants in Yemen. The U.S. continued its bombardment through the weekend.

Some analysts note that geopolitical safe-haven demand should continue to support gold prices above $2,000 an ounce.

While investors are reluctant to short gold, there is more give and take in the silver market, as investors increase their bearish bets while liquidating their long positions.

The disaggregated report showed that money-managed speculative gross long positions in Comex silver futures fell by 6,032 contracts to 32,392. At the same time, short positions rose by 1,677 contracts to 24,044.

Silver’s net length now stands at 8,348 contracts, down sharply from the previous week, falling to a two-month low.

Along with gold, silver is also struggling due to market volatility surrounding the Federal Reserve’s monetary policy; however, analysts also note that silver is also struggling as concerns over the global economy continue to grow.

During the survey period, silver prices traded in a fairly tight range between $23.00 and $23.50 an ounce.

Many commodity analysts have said that a potential global recession could weaken silver’s industrial demand, which has been a significant support for prices.

At the same time, analysts also see limited downside as the green energy transition and unprecedented demand for solar energy will remain a solid pillar of strength for silver, even in the face of a recession.

On-chain data in a volatile market: How traders stay ahead of the curve

Leave a comment

Exploring the role of on-chain data in helping traders navigate the volatile cryptocurrency market.

Market volatility, a defining characteristic of the crypto realm, introduces opportunities and risks, demanding a nuanced understanding and adept strategies for effective decision-making. Within this dynamic environment, the significance of on-chain data emerges as a crucial tool for traders seeking to navigate the intricacies of volatile markets.

On-chain data, a term resonating within the realms of blockchain and cryptocurrencies, refers to the wealth of information derived directly from the blockchain. This includes transaction data, wallet balances, and various metrics that capture the activities taking place on the blockchain.

Understanding on-chain data is crucial for unraveling the complex dynamics of the cryptocurrency world. Simply put, on-chain data includes a detailed set of information directly from the blockchain. This information covers various transaction details, wallet balances and metrics that create a clear record of activities on the blockchain.

Unlike traditional financial markets, where data goes through centralized entities, on-chain data provides an unfiltered and decentralized view of interactions in a blockchain network.

Harry Dinh, the chief data scientist of on-chain analytics platform Spot On Chain, told Cointelegraph, “What sets on-chain data apart from traditional financial market data is the decentralization, transparency and immutability nature.”

Dinh said, “During market volatility, while traditional financial markets may have delays in reporting, on-chain data offers real-time transparency, allowing investors to detect unusual patterns promptly and independently without relying on centralized authority. As a result, on-chain data enhances reliability and reduces the risk of manipulation.”

On-chain data in action

To understand on-chain data effectively, it’s crucial to concentrate on fundamental metrics and indicators that shed light on a blockchain’s functionality.

These include the volume of transactions, the number of wallet addresses, the frequency of transactions and the movement of tokens. These metrics are tools for analysts and traders to detect patterns, trends and irregularities in the blockchain.

Why is website traffic important?

Why is website traffic important?

Website traffic is crucial for several reasons, and its importance varies depending on the goals and objectives of a particular website. Here are some key reasons why website traffic is important:

  1. Visibility and Reach: Higher website traffic increases the visibility of your site. It allows more people to discover and explore your content, products, or services. This is particularly important for businesses and individuals looking to establish an online presence.
  2. Brand Awareness: Increased traffic contributes to greater brand exposure. When more people visit your website, they become more familiar with your brand, which can lead to improved brand recognition and trust.
  3. Lead Generation: For businesses, website traffic is often directly linked to lead generation. More visitors mean more potential customers. By optimizing your website for conversions, you can turn website traffic into leads, and ultimately, customers.
  4. Revenue Generation: For e-commerce websites and businesses that rely on online sales, website traffic is directly tied to revenue. The more visitors you have, the more opportunities you have to convert them into paying customers.

FOR WHAT REASONS IS WEBSITE TRAFFIC CRUCIAL?

  1. SEO Performance: Search engines often use website traffic as a factor when determining the relevance and authority of a website. High traffic can positively impact your search engine rankings, making it easier for people to find your site through search engines.
  2. User Engagement: A website with high traffic often indicates that users find the content valuable and engaging. This can lead to increased user interactions, such as comments, social shares, and longer time spent on the site, which can further enhance the overall user experience.
  3. Advertising Opportunities: If you monetize your website through advertising, higher traffic can attract advertisers. Advertisers are more likely to invest in platforms that have a significant and engaged audience.
  4. Data Collection: Analyzing website traffic provides valuable insights into user behavior, preferences, and demographics. This data can be used to make informed decisions about content creation, marketing strategies, and user experience improvements.
  5. Community Building: Websites with high traffic often foster active communities. This sense of community can be valuable for content creators, businesses, and organizations looking to build a loyal and engaged audience.
  6. Competitive Edge: In competitive industries, having high website traffic can give you a competitive edge. It indicates that your website is popular and attracts a substantial audience, which can help you stand out among competitors.

 

In summary, traffic is a key metric that impacts various aspects of online success, including visibility, brand awareness, lead generation, revenue, search engine rankings, user engagement, and more. It is a crucial factor for achieving both short-term and long-term goals in the online space.

Will Bitcoin ETF follow in gold’s footsteps?

Will Bitcoin ETF follow in gold’s footsteps?

Will Bitcoin ETF follow in gold’s footsteps? teaser image

(Kitco News) – The gold market continues to hold its own early in the new year as geopolitical turmoil in the Middle East supports safe-haven demand. However, it’s not gold that is attracting a lot of attention.

We saw history made this week after the Securities Exchange Commission approved 11 spot Bitcoin exchange-traded products. What makes the announcement so interesting is that it was preceded by significant confusion. A day before the SEC announced its decision, its social media account was hijacked and a fake announcement was released.

Interestingly, the new ETFs haven’t provided any new momentum for the digital currency. Bitcoin prices are ending the week pretty much where it started. However, most analysts recommend investors look past the short-term price action and if you want to know where cryptocurrencies are headed, you only have to look at gold.

The first gold ETF was launched back in 2008, and it completely transformed the market, creating new opportunities for a wide range of investors. By 2011, gold prices hit its first record highs above $1,800 an ounce. To this day, ETF investor demand remains an important pillar of the marketplace.

The new Bitcoin ETFs will create new opportunities and attract a wider variety of generalist investors. These new ETFs are backed by the world’s biggest asset management firms, including BlackRock, VanEck, and Grayscale, to name just a few. Bitcoin is no longer a fringe asset.

Some analysts have said this could impact the gold market as the market continues to digest the latest evolution in cryptocurrencies. When it comes to accessible alternative assets, gold has always been at the top of the list; it’s liquid, a store of value and has low correlations to the broader marketplace; however, Bitcoin also meets this criteria and now there is a new dimension that puts it on par with gold: it’s accessible.

In an interview with Kitco News, Joy Yang, Global Head of Index Product Management at MarketVector Indexes, said the approval of a Bitcoin ETF could keep gold prices range-bound near $2,000 an ounce through most of the year as the cryptocurrency becomes an attractive alternative asset.

“A Bitcoin ETF will be the shiny new thing in the market, and a lot of investors like shiny new things,” she said.

We have already seen how solid demand for Bitcoin has impacted the gold market. In 2021, gold prices were affected by roughly 3%, as FOMO (Fear of Missing Out) drove Bitcoin prices to record highs of nearly $69,000 per token.

A lot has changed in the last four years and it's unlikely we will see that big of an impact this time around. While Bitcoin ETFs are shiny and new, we have seen in the last couple of years that when uncertainty is high, investors continue to prefer investments that they can hold that have tangible value. Gold has thousands of years of history as being a store of wealth and value right now.

While investment demand may remain sluggish, central banks continue to buy gold nearly as fast as it can be mined out of the ground. This past week The People’s Bank of China bought nine tonnes of gold in December. The buying frenzy has slowed, but it hasn’t disappeared.

Official sector demand has become another important pillar for the gold market and according to many analysts, this sector should continue to support gold above $2,000 an ounce through 2024.
