The free to play activation allowed over 3,200 fans to get behind the wheel of either the Porsche 963 Hypercar or Ferrari 488 GTE on full rig set-ups. The session around a virtual Circuit de la Sarthe gave drivers a chance to echo the real-life action taking place race around the legendary venue, using with the latest products from Thrustmaster, including the entry-level T248 wheel or bespoke sim racing Direct Drive T818.

Among those sampling an early version of the PC-based game was factory Porsche Penske Motorsport driver Matt Campbell and Porsche Coanda Esports Racing Team star Joshua Rogers who put the Porsche 963 Hypercar through its paces. Ferrari was also represented, as Scuderia Ferrari Esports drivers Timotej Andonovski and Alex Siebel were on hand to give feedback on the Ferrari 488 GTE machine.

We were able to show the public an early version of the game as well as listening to their stories of the iconic event, and gather feedback for the game; its vitally important we do that as often as we can in the run up to release.

An Investor List of the Industries that Can be Improved With Blockchain Technology

Posted on by phoffman@channelchek.com

Blockchain Beyond Cryptocurrency: The Potential of Distributed Ledger Technology

Does blockchain have a future beyond crypto? Since its beginning as the underlying technology for Bitcoin (BTC) and later other cryptocurrencies, blockchain has been the necessary, behind-the-scenes, engine that allow these fintech currencies to function. Dogecoin (DOGE), Ethereum (ETH), and even the 18 G20 countries developing a central bank digital currency (CBDC) need blockchain to exist.  

But what non-finance industries are being impacted or will be disrupted by blockchain? It is not with exaggeration to say blockchain has the power to revolutionize various industries and redefine everyday transactions, manage data, and establish trust. Long-term investing requires knowledge of current trends and where the future may take them. Below we explore many of the possibilities of blockchain aside from cryptocurrency and delve into its promising future.

What is Blockchain?

At its core, blockchain is a decentralized (no single control) and immutable (unable to be changed) ledger that records activity across multiple computers. This distributed character replaces the need for institutional intermediaries to ensure transparency, security, and efficiency. A person or an entity can function, even across borders directly, without the need for a middleman. Verification of activity is recorded and remains a part of a blockchain ledger.

Uses beyond cryptocurrency, or the speculative investment that crypto and non-fungible tokens (NFT) have become, include health care, finance, voting, real estate titles, and smart communities.

Health Care

The HIPAA Privacy Rule sets national standards to protect individuals’ medical records and other identifiable health information. It applies to health plans, healthcare clearinghouses, and healthcare providers that conduct certain medical transactions electronically. The purpose is to keep data ownership from improperly being passed and to maintain privacy in the industry. Current centralized systems are not able to meet the many needs of patients, health service providers, insurance companies, and governmental agencies. Blockchain technology enables a decentralized system for access control of medical records where all stakeholders’ interests are protected.

Blockchain systems not only allow healthcare service providers to securely share patients’ medical records but patients may also track who has accessed their records and determine who is authorized to do so. If blockchain-driven, all transactions can become transparent to the patient.

And blockchain-powered interoperability can enable the seamless sharing of medical data between healthcare organizations, improving patient care, research, and drug development.

Supply Chain Management

Complex global supply chains involve numerous stakeholders, some sending, others receiving, and others verifying the source of food or products. Verifying the authenticity and improving traceability of products can be a challenging task. Blockchain’s ability to create an immutable record of every transaction and movement along the supply chain enables transparency and accountability. A company will be able to securely track the origin, manufacturing process, and movement of goods. Consumers can be equipped with verified information, among other benefits, this will increase trust and reduce the risk of receiving counterfeit products.

Storing information regarding movement on a blockchain improves integrity, accountability and traceability. For example, IBM’s Food Trust uses a blockchain system to track food items from the field to retailers. The participants in the food supply chain record transactions in the shared blockchain, which simplifies keeping track.

Entertainment Products

As technology has allowed greater reproduction and distribution, including music and art, blockchain may provide creators with more control over their work. The whole entertainment industry may undergo a significant transformation with blockchain technology. Artists can tokenize their efforts, creating a digital certificate of ownership that can be bought, sold, and shared on blockchain platforms. This will enable artists to have tight control over their intellectual property, receive fair compensation, and even establish a direct connection with their followers. Beyond ownership infringement, blockchain can facilitate transparent royalty distribution, this could ensure that artists receive their rightful earnings without an intermediary and the cost that comes with anyone getting in the middle of a transaction.

The Energy Sector

Blockchain is likely to play a transformative role in all forms of energy. As renewable energy sources continue their trend, blockchain can enable peer-to-peer energy trading. Individuals and organizations will be able to directly exchange surplus energy with those expecting an energy deficit. This could create a decentralized energy market.

Smart contracts executed on the blockchain can automatically verify and settle transactions, ensuring transparency. This democratization of energy, if broadly implemented, could accelerate the adoption of sustainable practices, provide energy where needed, and reduce waste.

Governments

While the government is often the intermediary that the blockchain makes less needed or unneeded, recognizing the potential of blockchain to enhance transparency and efficiency in public services may become its greatest use. Land registries, taxation, voting systems, and identity certainty can all be improved through blockchain’s tracking and tamper-resistant design. Immutable records of land ownership can reduce disputes and increase trust in property transactions. Digital identities stored on a blockchain can streamline processes such as passport verification and border control, making them more secure and efficient. Blockchain-based voting systems have the potential to eliminate voter fraud, ensuring fair and transparent elections.

Potential

Much of what is described above has either barely been implemented or has not been put to use. This is a period in any technological advancement when most long-term investors would like to be involved. Efficiencies and improved products are poised to help the industries mentioned, and pure blockchain companies, large and small, can benefit from developing uses for their technology.

Despite its potential, blockchain technology still faces challenges. Scalability, energy consumption, and regulatory frameworks require further development and refinement. However, ongoing research and collaborations among businesses, academia, industry, and policymakers are actively finding avenues around these concerns, driving the maturation of blockchain technology.

Take Away

Blockchain is still in its infancy, and industries are just becoming aware of its power to help them. As the paradigm shifts, it could become a technology businesses could not imagine doing without. Blockchain’s decentralized, transparent, and secure nature makes it a powerful tool for revolutionizing healthcare, supply chain management, entertainment, governing, and energy sectors. As the technology evolves, we can expect innovative use and widespread adoption of blockchain that serves to elevate trust, efficiency, and transparency. And maybe the now-developed cryptocurrencies will survive within these changes.

  • Complexity Gaming and Ninja Labs Team Up with Innovative Eye Care
  • Company Vivior to Combat Digital Eye Strain that Impacts 92% of Gamers

FRISCO, TX / ACCESSWIRE / June 1, 2023 / GameSquare Holdings Inc. (“GameSquare”, or the “Company”) (NASDAQ:GAME)(TSXV:GAME), today announced a multi-year, multi-million dollar partnership with innovative Swiss vision care startup Vivior to promote healthy digital habits. Through content creation, product development, and competition, GameSquare and Vivior will raise awareness for how digital eye strain (DES), poor light exposure, bad posture, and more can impact gamers’ long-term health, wellness, and performance. Vivior will work closely with GameSquare and its subsidiaries, Complexity Gaming and recently launched innovation hub, Ninja Labs. As part of the multifaceted deal, ZONED Gaming, a GameSquare company, will also serve as Vivior’s marketing agency of record and will advise the company on its go-to-market strategy and product launch.

“Our partnership with Vivior represents GameSquare’s ongoing commitment to player care initiatives,” said Justin Kenna, CEO, GameSquare. “It’s a nod to how GameSquare’s businesses across marketing, esports, data, product development, and more can come together to create a one-of-a-kind campaign that can make an impact. Together with Vivior, we are not only empowering our aggregate audience of 500 million to excel by prioritizing their health, but also equipping the global gaming community with innovative technologies to enhance gameplay.”

Vivior will collaborate with GameSquare Chief Innovation Officer Tyler “Ninja” Blevins and Ninja Labs to develop and launch a health and wellness platform.

As part of their commitment to DES prevention, the pair will also look to jointly develop new products that address gamers’ most common pain points, including vision, screen time, posture, and blue light exposure.

“I’ve been focused on balancing gaming and wellness for a while now because the more time we spend gaming, the more important it is to take care of our long-term health,” said Blevins. “What started with me talking openly about wellness was formalized with the Team Ninja Time Out initiative, and now teaming up with Vivior is another first step to creating a more sustainable future for the next generation of gamers.”

In an effort to reinforce the importance of vision care, Ninja Labs and Vivior will also host a health and wellness-focused Fortnite tournament. The multi-day competition will see 50 duos – 25 creator teams and 25 open bracket teams – face off in a custom Vivior-branded Fortnite map.

“As young audiences continue to spend more time online looking at screens, eliminating digital visual stress is a key to living a healthy lifestyle,” said Professor Michael Mrochen, Chairman and co-founder of Vivior. “Through our multifaceted partnership with GameSquare, we’re making gamers more cognizant of how small changes to their screen usage, posture, and more can make big differences in their overall health and wellbeing.”

Vivior will additionally collaborate with Complexity’s diverse talent roster to produce sponsored content and live streams that promote the importance of practicing healthy habits while gaming, doubling down on Complexity’s long-standing commitment to talent and player care. To launch the initiative, Vivior will have a presence at Complexity’s DreamHack Dallas booth on June 2-4, where attendees can learn about their posture, DES risks, and more while competing in friendly Halo Infinite matches.

Research News and Market Data on SNAL

May 31, 2023 at 8:30 AM EDT

CULVER CITY, Calif., May 31, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Snail, Inc. (Nasdaq: SNAL) (“Snail” or “the Company”), a leading, global independent developer and publisher of interactive digital entertainment, today announced its successful application of Artificial Intelligence Generative Content (“AIGC”) in game development. As AI technology continues to make rapid strides, the gaming industry, characterized by its integration of words, graphics, animations, videos, and a variety of digital assets, has emerged as one of the early adopters of this game-changing technology. The high compatibility of AIGC with the gaming sector has introduced new opportunities and challenges, driving innovation and growth within the industry.

Snail has been actively exploring AIGC applications. AIGC has played a significant role in expediting production and assisting development in various aspects, including concept creation, art design, music, voice acting, intelligent NPCs, storylines, and world-building. The application of AIGC fosters innovation and rejuvenation in games.

Snail believes that the advanced technology of AIGC enables game designers to create more detailed, diverse game worlds, enhancing game quality and user experience while unlocking greater potential for gameplay and generating increased commercial value for the Company. For example, AI is expected to drive unlimited content generation in Snail’s Metaverse gaming project, combined with Snail’s independently developed 3D engine, Flexi. Transitioning from User Generated Content (“UGC”) to AIGC, AIGC technology can significantly enrich game content and provide a broader variety of gameplay options and attractiveness, increasing players’ engagement and stickiness.

Snail has already successfully applied AIGC technology in multiple game projects, achieving excellent results. Through the utilization of AIGC, Snail has accelerated production and iteration in game development, significantly improving game quality and user experience. Snail will continue to delve into the application of AI technology in game development and believes that AIGC will play a vital role in transforming static data production to dynamic data interaction and become an essential asset in game development.

Jim Tsai, Chief Executive Officer of Snail, commented, “We are thrilled with the progress we’ve made in integrating AIGC into our game development process. As we continue to push the boundaries of what’s possible with AI, we’re confident that our commitment to innovation will result in even more immersive and engaging gaming experiences for our players.”

This Travel Segment Has Taken Investors Far

Posted on by phoffman@channelchek.com

Investors Have Far Fewer Reservations Against Investing in Leisure

Memorial Day Weekend in the U.S. marks the beginning of the travel season. After a few years on hiatus, as a result of Covid-19 restrictions, travel in 2023 is expected to surpass pre-pandemic numbers. While many investors are focused on the debt ceiling, less accommodative monetary policy, and looking for an entry point to invest in AI technology, post-pandemic travel plans are increasing – and the returns of some companies reflect this. One segment of the travel sector has benefitted and provided double-digit YTD stock returns. Below we discuss this segment and the potential for the future.

Travel Booking Stocks

When was the last time you went to an airline website to book a flight with them, or even a hotel for that matter? Most of us now find ourselves on a booking website when we’re planning a vacation. On these platforms, we can compare prices more easily, and if we’d like, add on extras like a car rental. Some even have proprietary package deals.

Technological advancements have created even greater efficiencies among booking and vacation travel package companies. Other positives for growth are pent-up demand, diversified revenue streams, and valuations still considered attractive. These all provide a backdrop and potential for the medium and long-term growth of the travel booking industry.

The chart above is a year-to-date sampling of examples of stocks in this leisure segment that have outperformed the overall market (S&P 500). Below, from weakest performer to strongest, are details of each company’s unique business, market cap, and other interesting investor information:

  •  Expedia (EXPE) is a global travel company that provides a wide range of travel services, including flights, hotels, car rentals, and vacation packages.

This is a large cap stock with a current market cap of $14.33 billion, at $96.85 per share.

The company is headquartered in Seattle, Washington.

  • Booking Holdings (BKNG) is a travel company that owns a number of popular travel brands, including Booking.com, Priceline.com, and Kayak.com.

This is a large-cap stock with a current market cap of $97.61 billion, at $45.41 per share.

The company is headquartered in Norwalk, CT.

  • Allegiant Travel (ALGT) is a leisure travel company that provides travel services and other products to under-served cities in the U.S. This includes flights between vacation destinations. As of February 1, 2023, Allegiant operated a fleet of 122 Airbus A320 series aircraft.

This is a small cap stock with a current market cap of $1.85 billion, at a price of $99.96 per share.

The company is headquartered in Las Vegas, Nevada.

  • Travelzoo (TZOO) has a unique business model as it operates as an Internet media company that provides travel, entertainment, and deals from travel and leisure businesses worldwide. Publication products include the Travelzoo Top 20 email newsletter, Travelzoo emails, Travelzoo Network, Travelzoo mobile applications, Jack’s Flight Club website, Jack’s Flight Club mobile applications, and Jack’s Flight Club newsletters.

The year-to-date performance of TZOO is 10x that of the S&P 500.

In a research report dated April 28, 2023, Michael Kupinski, the senior research analyst for media and entertainment, had this to say about Travelzoo, “We believe that there is a disconnect with investors and the improved fundamentals at the company. Near current levels, the TZOO shares appear compelling, trading at 5.3 times Enterprise Value to our 2024 cash flow estimate or below the low end of the company’s 10-year and 15-year average trading ranges.” See the report here.

Current market cap is $133.05 million, at $8.69 per share.

The company is headquartered in New York, NY.

Take Away

Travel booking companies are well-positioned to benefit from the recovery of the overall leisure industry. Small cap travel booking companies are often more nimble and innovative than larger companies; this could give them an advantage in the travel booking market.

People are spending more money on travel. Companies like those mentioned above welcome the opening of China, allowing citizens to travel and return. In addition to the overall post-pandemic volume of business, travelers are spending more money on trips than they did before the restrictions.
