Is a Bitcoin (BTC) Bounce Coming? Analysts Suggest DigiToads (TOADS) Presale to Make Big Gains

Blockchain Digest

The cryptocurrency market has been volatile in recent months, but there are some signs that a Bitcoin bounce could be coming. Bitcoin (BTC) has been trading sideways for the past few weeks, and some analysts believe that the cryptocurrency is due for a breakout. One of the reasons for this optimism is the accumulation of BTC by crypto whales. Whales, or large investors, have been buying up BTC in recent weeks, and this suggests that they believe the cryptocurrency is undervalued. Bitcoin is currently trading at around $29,000. Some analysts believe that BTC could reach $35,000 in the near future, while others believe that it could even reach $40,000. Analysts also suggest the strong demand for DigiToads ( TOADS ), a new cryptocurrency project that is designed to be a decentralized platform. Analysts believe that TOADS could make big gains if BTC does bounce.

Crypto Forecast: Big Moves Await Bitcoin (BTC), Filecoin (FIL) and InQubeta (QUBE)

Blockchain Digest

In the high-octane world of cryptocurrencies, Bitcoin (BTC), Filecoin (FIL), and InQubeta (QUBE) are gaining attention. Investors anticipate big moves for these digital currencies, suggesting that they are promising candidates for adding value to portfolios. As the crypto market continues to expand and evolve, here's a look at the growth trajectories of these three cryptocurrencies. Visit InQubeta Presale InQubeta: The Innovative AI-focused Platform Starting off with a unique crypto player, InQubeta is changing the game by marrying blockchain technology and artificial intelligence. Built on the Ethereum network, the company's QUBE token is quickly gaining traction among investors for its high-growth potential. The InQubeta platform aims to connect investors with AI start-ups, creating an ecosystem where ideas and investments flourish. Their deflationary ERC20 token, QUBE, fuels this ecosystem. Following a successful pre-sale, which saw the company raise over $2 million, the token has caught the attention of investors worldwide. It recently entered the third stage of the presale round, and the price is already up by 60% from the beta stage. Unlike traditional cryptocurrencies, QUBE's value is driven by a 2% burn rate and a 5% buy/sell tax, which rewards QUBE holders. By using a deflationary model, QUBE is expected to increase in value over time, as supply gradually diminishes. The success of the QUBE presale and the subsequent increase in token value underscores InQubeta's potential. As the company prepares to launch its NFT marketplace, InQubeta Swap, and the InQubeta DAO, the future looks promising for QUBE and its holders. Visit InQubeta Presale Bitcoin: The Showstopper Bitcoin (BTC), the first-ever cryptocurrency, remains a heavyweight in the market, despite recent market turbulence. BTC's value continues to fluctuate around key resistance levels, leading to predictions of big moves in the future. While Bitcoin has recently dropped below the key support level of $30,000, market analysts believe that this could be a temporary retracement before a larger upward trend. The decentralized nature of Bitcoin and its position as a "store of value" means that it continues to attract institutional and retail investors alike. Filecoin: The Future of Decentralized Storage Filecoin (FIL), the token of the decentralized storage system, is another cryptocurrency expected to make significant strides. The platform allows users to rent out their spare storage space or buy space from others, creating a decentralized "marketplace" for data storage. FIL has experienced steady growth, largely due to the increased adoption of decentralized storage solutions. As more businesses and individuals seek out secure, reliable storage options that offer more control over data, the demand for services like Filecoin is expected to increase. Cryptocurrency: An Ever-Evolving Landscape In the ever-evolving world of cryptocurrencies, BTC, FIL, and QUBE are showing strong potential for growth. While Bitcoin continues to lead in market value, innovative platforms like InQubeta and Filecoin provide compelling investment opportunities. Investors are keeping a close eye on these three cryptocurrencies, anticipating big moves in the near future. As we continue to monitor the crypto landscape, it's clear that these digital currencies are set to redefine how we think about finance, investment, and digital technology.

OYO US Collaborates with Stripe to Introduce Instant Payouts for Hotels

OYO

Global travel technology company OYO announced that it has partnered with Stripe, a global financial infrastructure platform for businesses, to ease the payment experience for its customers and hotel owners in the US. The integration will provide hotel owners with a flexible and seamless solution for in-person payments with Stripe Terminal at their hotels. OYO hotels in the US will also be enabled with real-time payouts through Instant Payouts with Stripe, which will improve their cash flow. With Instant Payouts, OYO can allow hotel owners on their platform to access their balances immediately following a successful charge. Instant Payouts are available at any day or time, including weekends and holidays, and funds typically settle in the associated bank account within 30 minutes. In addition, the collaboration will equip OYO hotels in the US with a secure online payments platform for guests to make bookings. With robust fraud protection mechanisms in place to safeguard against online fraudulent activities, hotel owners will see a reduction in the overall processing charges, minimizing chargeback costs. OYO seeks to enable higher authorization rates with the Stripe integration as lower payment success rates result in customers dropping off, directly impacting revenue. The company anticipates increased success rate which will translate into faster and more efficient bookings and check-ins, allowing guests to focus on enjoying their stay without unnecessary delays. Talking about the partnership, Gautam Swaroop, CEO OYO International said, “Today’s consumers are used to lightning fast and smooth search and transaction experience. By teaming up with Stripe, we will simplify and quicken the payment process, ensuring a smooth and hassle-free experience for our customers as well as hotel partners. With Stripe, OYO will offer secure online transactions and its low-cost payment infrastructure will streamline financial operations so that we can allocate resources more efficiently, ultimately providing guests with better value and services.” Nikhil Heda, Head of Business Development, OYO USA added, “The integration with Stripe will reduce the overall transaction cost for OYO and help in better fraud detection mechanisms. Stripe's robust security measures and sophisticated algorithms will work in tandem with OYO's existing protocols to create a fortified defense against potential threats, instilling confidence and trust in every transaction.” OYO offers hotels access to a large base of regular customers through its app and website, and lists hotels on multiple Online Travel Agents (OTAs) to boost booking demand and revenue. OYO’s best-in-class Artificial Intelligence-enabled pricing software automatically drives the best booking prices across all channels, based on room type, seasonality and other factors, therefore, enabling such an increase in online revenues. OYO has started offering hotels the flexibility of not having to invest heavily in redoing the hotel to join the OYO platform, something that other budget hotel chains insist on. Therefore, the initial investment to join OYO is minimal. It has been focusing instead on standardizing service led components such as customer support and booking experience. The company helps ensure great experience for customers, with ease of search and a quick booking experience, highly competitive room prices as per market demand patterns, automated tools such as Artificial Intelligence powered chatbots to quickly resolve customer queries, loyalty programs and easy refund, if needed. Earlier this year OYO said that it is planning to add over 100 hotels in the US. The company will focus on adding more hotels in the states of Oregon, Washington, Texas, Oklahoma, Georgia and Florida. Texas continues to be the largest and fastest growing market for OYO in the US, while it also has a sizable concentration of hotels in Oregon, South and North Carolina, Florida & Georgia. The company also achieved a 48% growth in revenue from bookings on its own platform, such as the app, website, mobile web and call centers in Q4 2022 vs same period in 2021. OYO’s app saw the highest growth with a 99% surge in revenue from bookings in Q4 2022 vs same period in 2021. The company had earlier disclosed that its app is the second most downloaded travel app with over 100 million downloads globally. OYO has presence in over 35 countries globally.
