Over the next few years, firms will need to balance risk with reward when unlocking the transformative benefits of generative AI CAMBRIDGE, Mass.–(BUSINESS WIRE)–According to Forrester’s (Nasdaq: FORR) The Top 10 Emerging Technologies In 2023 report, generative AI will begin to deliver significant return on investment for most enterprises in the next two to four years. To fully benefit from generative AI’s applications, firms will need to navigate its risks, including trustworthiness, evolving regulations, and potential intellectual property complications. Despite these risks, generative AI remains a top emerging technology to invest in due to its breadth of impact and ability to accelerate many other top emerging technologies, including autonomous workplace assistants (AWAs) and conversational AI. Conversational AI, enabled by generative AI, is the second top emerging technology that will deliver the fastest ROI. E-commerce, B2B sales, and customer service functions will see the biggest impacts from conversational AI. AWAs will also deliver near-term benefits for most firms, as they are poised today to take over increasingly complex but repetitive human tasks. According to Forrester, additional emerging technologies that will offer significant benefits for firms in two to four years include: Decentralized Digital Identity (DDID). DDID will ultimately replace physical proof-of-identity documents, with financial services, government, and education likely to benefit most. Blockchains and zero-knowledge proofs will play a substantial role in this slow transformation. Edge Intelligence. Turning massive data sets produced by computer vision and sensors into real-time action requires more intelligent software running at the edge of business and consumer networks. Customer digital experiences will benefit from edge intelligence the most. Explainable AI (XAI). To be useful, new AI software needs to be trustworthy, which means it must be explainable. While XAI capabilities are still immature, this technology will see its greatest utilization in highly regulated and high-risk use cases in the finance and healthcare sectors. TuringBots. There has been a dramatic acceleration in the number and capability of TuringBots, AI-powered software robots that help developers build applications. In two to four years, a substantial part of enterprise applications could be generated by this technology. Some emerging technologies that will take at least five years to deliver tangible value for enterprises include: Extended Reality (XR). Only 20% of US online adults are comfortable using virtual reality or augmented reality to consume information, which means that XR will take more years of hardware innovation and consumer adoption. In the short term, enterprises will benefit in the areas of employee training and onboarding. Web3. Despite its promise of a new, more democratic web, Web3 remains a self-referencing ecosystem of financial engineering fraught with risk and scandal. Key technical challenges surrounding Web3 still exist for enterprises, including scaling and security, identity and key management, and privacy. Zero Trust Edge (ZTE). ZTE embeds Zero Trust security principles into software-defined networks that are deployed to offices and physical spaces but controlled centrally via the cloud. The improved security and performance promised by these tools will take more time as security and networking vendor offerings merge and mature. “While many emerging technologies show great promise, it is imperative for tech leaders to assess whether these technologies can deliver value and if their business can navigate their associated risks,” said Brian Hopkins, Forrester VP, emerging technology portfolio. “This means side-stepping misinformation, mitigating poor decisions driven by a fear of missing out, and narrowing focus from the shiny objects down to the few technologies that have real potential. Firms must also ensure that their time frame for implementing these technologies is commensurate with their overall risk/reward tolerance.” Resources: Read more about the top emerging technologies that will deliver ROI for enterprises.

Bitcoin registered a $68,789 range on November 10, 2021. BTC’s price could soar to a staggering $138,000, mirroring the remarkable 346% return. Bitcoin (BTC), the largest cryptocurrency’s consolidation at the $30,000 mark, has brought a strong pattern. According to the data from Glassnode, approximately 75% of the total Bitcoin supply is held in profit, while the remaining 25% is held in loss. Remarkably, this balance mirrors the equilibrium point observed during previous milestones in 2016 and 2019. The intriguing balance arises from the fact that this 75:25 balance of supply held in profit vs loss appears to be the equilibrium point for Bitcoin. Throughout its trading history, 50% of all trading days have seen a higher Profit-to-Loss balance, while the remaining 50% have witnessed a lower one. Bitcoin (BTC) Track (Source: Glassnode) Also, it is important to note that the current market consolidation has caused the Bitcoin price to stick at $30,000. However, it does serve as a point of reference for market observers, hinting at potential patterns that have historically played out during Bitcoin’s price cycles. At the continuation of the 2019 cycle, Bitcoin registered a $68,789 range on November 10, 2021. Will Bitcoin (BTC) Price Surge Further? In a major development for the cryptocurrency market, there is growing speculation that a Bitcoin Exchange-Traded Fund (ETF) may receive approval at a relatively low entry point of $30,000. If this were to happen, market analysts are predicting that Bitcoin’s price could soar to a staggering $138,000, mirroring the remarkable 346% return that gold experienced after the approval of its first ETF back in 2004. The potential approval of a Bitcoin ETF has been a highly anticipated event in the cryptocurrency community, as it could open the doors for institutional investors and traditional financial institutions to enter the Bitcoin market more easily. At the time of writing, Bitcoin (BTC) traded at $30,700 with a 24 hour trading volume of over $11.59 billion. Further, Bitcoin continues its impressive bullish run, gaining over 1.5% in a single day and showing an impressive 87% surge since the beginning of the year. With a current market share of 50%, BTC’s market cap now stands at over $595 billion, contributing to the overall global cryptocurrency market cap of $1.19 trillion. Bitcoin (BTC) Price Chart (Source: Tradingview) Technical indicators also support the bullish sentiment surrounding Bitcoin. The 50-day moving average (MA) for BTC is signaling an uptrend, reinforcing the positive outlook for the leading cryptocurrency.
 
Overall Crypto Market is Up 0.93%. Factors driving today’s top gainers’ performance offer insights for crypto investor Today,several cryptocurrencies have experienced notable price surges,adding to the overall market cap surging over 0.93%. Each of these top gainers has seen varying degrees of growth and recovery in the market. Let’s take a closer look at their performances and reasons behind their price fluctuations. Top Gainers : Bitcoin Cash(BCH) Bitcoin Cash, holding the fifth position among the top gainers, witnessed a surge of 3.85% today, reaching a price of $283.89. While it had a strong performance in Q3, reaching its highest price of $285, the cryptocurrency faced regulatory uncertainty regarding ETFs during Q4. However, Bitcoin Cash has managed to sustain its uptrend, even amidst challenges. In the past seven days, it saw a surge of 6.77%. Today’s surge can be attributed, in part, to Binance.US’s response to recent FUD over trading Bitcoin Cash (BCH) and their commitment to maintaining the coin’s reserves. BCH 24H Price Chart, Source: TradingView Sui(SUI) Sui,a relatively new player in the cryptocurrency field, has showcased its strength and determination to compete. Although SUI experienced a downtrend last month, hitting an all-time low of $0.558, the coin has displayed persistence, with a modest 1.56% surge over the past month. Today, SUI saw a significant surge of 3.71%, with the price standing at $0.6782. This surge broke the downtrend line, leaving the community curious about its future performance. SUI 24H Price Chart, Source: TradingView 1inch Network(1INCH) 1inch Network claims the top spot in terms of price surge today, with a significant increase of 8.84%. While it experienced a downward trend over the past week, it showed resilience with a 4.33% surge during that period. Notably,1INCH reached an all-time high of $0.2535, and in Q2, its user base doubled by 36%, leaving its strong community wondering if a bull run is on the horizon. 1INCH 24H Price Chart, Source: TradingView Conflux(CFX) Conflux emerges as the winner in the price surge game today, with an impressive surge of 11.23%. The cryptocurrency has demonstrated a strong recovery, with its price increasing by approximately 817.56% from its all-time low earlier this year. Over the past seven days, CFX experienced a surge of 4.88%, primarily driven by today’s substantial increase.Additionally, yesterday’s partnership between Dypius and Conflux Network aimed to deliver an unrivaled metaverse experience, contributing to the impressive surge. CFX 24H Price Chart, Source: TradingView Aave(AAVE) Aave, a decentralized finance (DeFi) coin, impressed with a surge of 4.73% today. However, it falls into the recovery category, considering its performance over the past week.Last Seven day it has seen some downward movement. The current price of AAVE stands at $76.01, fluctuating between a low of $72.35 and a high of $76.50. AAVE 24H Price Chart, Source: TradingView Also with the above gainers, Stacks also had a significant surge of 4.47% and kava had a surge of 4.92%. In summary, Bitcoin Cash, Sui, Aave, 1inch Network, and Conflux have shown significant price surges today, influencing their top gainers performance. While Bitcoin Cash maintains its uptrend amidst regulatory challenges, Sui breaks its downtrend, and Aave exhibits signs of slow recovery. Meanwhile, 1inch Network’s resilient surge raises questions about a potential bull run, and Conflux’s recovery game remains strong, fueled by recent partnerships.It will be interesting to observe how these cryptocurrencies perform in the coming days and whether these surges indicate sustained growth.
 
The Shiba Inu ecosystem token Bone ShibaSwap (BONE) has seen a staggering 88% price increase within the last 28 days, since Jun 15. Last Saturday, the price rally stopped for the time being at just under $1.50, which means that the Shiba Inu-based token has already experienced an interim price increase of over 120%. Since then, the BONE price has been in a consolidation. A look at the 1-day chart of BONE shows that the price initially shot above the 50% Fibonacci retracement level, but failed to defend the gains on a daily basis and eventually fell below the resistance. Thus, the $1.38 level is the key resistance. The current correction has caused the overheated daily RSI to reset from 81 to 61. Still, further consolidation might be needed to ignite further upside potential. A target for bears could be the 100-day exponential moving average (EMA)and the 38.2% Fibonacci level in the $1.00 to $1.01 range. After a potentially necessary reset of technical indicators and another breakout above $1.38, the 61.8% Fibonacci retracement level at $1.50 and the 78.6% Fibonacci retracement level at $1.80 would then be the next targets before the all-time high of late February 2023 at $2.10 would be within reach. Shiba Inu: Reasons For The BONE Price Rally The main reason for the current rally in the price of Shibaswap Bone (BONE) can be seen in the announcement by Shiba Inu chief developer Shytoshi Kusama about the launch of Shibarium next month. BONE will be the governance token of the upcoming highly anticipated layer 2 network and will also serve as a gas token. As NewsBTC reported, Kusama published a new blog post last week stating that Shibarium will “likely” be unveiled at the Blockchain Futurist Conference. The conference will be held on August 15 and 16 in Toronto, Canada. BONE will then not only be the official governance token for Shibarium, but will also be used for any payment of transaction fees (gas fees) on Shibarium. Thus, BONE will get a great utility that did not exist before. Undoubtedly, this will increase the demand for BONE. Traders might currently try to front-run the news. In classic crypto fashion, the event could become a “buy the rumor, sell the news” event. Investors should therefore be cautious. Worth noting: While BONE is rallying strongly, Shiba Inu has fallen -1.5% in the last seven days. The popular dog-themed cryptocurrency managed to break out of a multi-month downtrend channel, but currently lacks momentum to confirm the breakout. While BONE is benefiting from the Shibarium news, SHIB investors seem to remain skeptical and suffer from the launch delays. The network was originally scheduled for a 2022 release.

MacStadium has secured two patents: one for retrofitting current racking designs with KVM devices (aka, helmets) to offer local and remote keyboard, video and mouse access to Mac servers, and one to offer a new rack shelving architecture and design aimed at optimizing server density The helmet design was rapidly prototyped and refined via 3D printing technology and is manufactured via injection molding, dramatically reducing time to market and yielding very low cost per unit economics The new shelf design offers six times the server density of older Mac Pro racks and 50% more server density than existing Mac mini racks. Importantly, this optimized density design also includes the KVM devices ATLANTA–(BUSINESS WIRE)–#Apple—MacStadium, the industry-leading Mac private cloud and software-as-a-service provider enabling macOS workloads, today announced it has secured two patents: one for injection molded “helmets” providing keyboard, video and mouse (KVM) and precise power button control remotely, and one for a new rack shelving design with optimizing server density along with the KVM system. MacStadium’s helmets, which sit atop a Mac mini or Mac Studio, are specifically designed to retrofit the company’s current shelving offering. Leveraging 3D printing technology to rapidly prototype and refine the design, this innovation dramatically reduces time-to-market and yields very low cost per unit. While the helmets remain compatible with former shelving solutions, the new shelf design offers six times the server density of older Mac Pro racks and 50% more server density than existing Mac mini racks. Additionally, each Mac server is provisioned with an Apple-focused KVM device providing significant capabilities and advantages while slashing rack shelving costs by 50% or more. “These patents offer an exciting glimpse into how much we have grown and evolved our technology to better service our customers with scalability on-demand and faster deployment made possible via our enterprise hardware program,” said Paul Benati, MacStadium’s senior vice president and COO. “MacStadium has been and remains at the forefront of Apple enterprise innovation. As the first to market with new Apple servers, we continue to innovate, prioritizing reduced system friction, increased customer ease and satisfaction and decreased costs.” MacStadium’s proprietary helmet – which is currently in production – houses a temperature probe, LED light, OLED display and a servo, which allows for granular remote control of Apple devices’ power button. These KVM devices can remotely control the Apple devices to which they are connected, eliminating the need for customers to request server control and for IT teams to physically go to data centers to correct issues. With these remote control and self-service features, customers unlock new capabilities, including the ability to dynamically define the purpose of the Apple device, access to network storage and the long-awaited ability to run FileVault. The KVM system is securely accessed via SSL, SSO integration and authentication and authorization via lightweight directory access protocol (LDAP). The shelving system, which will soon begin production, is designed to hold 24 Mac minis and 24 Apple-focused KVM devices, increasing the capacity of a standard rack to 144 Mac minis. In addition to increased operational efficiencies and secure server access from anywhere in the world, the shelving design offers tremendous cost savings due to its injection molded manufacturing. Not only is this manufacturing offered globally by a multitude of vendors, but it also allows for reduced shipping costs and more server density per square foot due to the product’s reduced bulk and weight. These innovations provide a clear competitive advantage for customers and are just some of the foundational elements of MacStadium’s offering, aimed at driving Mac compute to customers via self-service. The patents come after MacStadium announced Orka Workspace with Pulse, designed to enable high-definition audio and visual streaming on virtual Mac desktops via any HTML5-supported browser. In addition, the company recently made public its Orka Small Teams edition, a self-service purchase option, giving MacDevOps teams immediate access to the industry’s leading enterprise-grade macOS virtualization and orchestration tool. As tech companies look to streamline operations and maximize their resources, this automation is critical to remain competitive.

Coinbase, one of the leading cryptocurrency exchanges has experienced a surge in its stock price, despite a large sale of shares by Cathie Wood’s Ark Investment Management LLC. On July 11, Ark Investment Management sold approximately 135,152 Coinbase shares, worth around $12 million. This marked Cathie Wood’s first sale of Coinbase shares since July 26, after nearly 11 months of consistently buying up the stock. Cathie Wood’s Ark Investment Management Sells Significant Stake In Coinbase Cathie Wood’s investment in Coinbase solidified Ark Investment Management as one of the major stakeholders, ranking fourth in terms of Coinbase shares held. However, the recent sale by Ark Investment Management suggests a shift in strategy as the firm decided to put a pause on its buying spree. Notably, Cathie Wood’s Coinbase stock buying frenzy came at a time when the crypto market was in a period of uncertainty, specifically during the regulatory scrutiny from the US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), the fallout from the FTX exchange, and an increase in bankruptcy cases which cast a shadow over investor sentiment. Though there are no specific reasons why Cathie Wood has decided to sell a large portion of its Coinbase shares, this move can be attributed to being a reflection of a calculated response to the current market conditions. Over the past month, the US regulator has intensified its scrutiny of the industry and this intensification has impacted even larger players in the industry such as Binance and Coinbase. Both exchanges saw the US SEC file a lawsuit against them over the alleged offering of unregulated securities. COIN Buck The Trend Despite the large sale of Coinbase’s shares by Ark Investment Management, the market reacted unexpectedly as the stock price defied expectations and surged by nearly 10% in just one day. Particularly, over the past 24 hours, Coinbase shares saw an increase of 9.78%, reflecting a positive investor sentiment. The stock has seen an increase from the $46 level which it traded at early in June, to trading at a price of $91.54, at the time of writing. The performance of Coinbase’s stock is noteworthy, considering the context of the crypto market. Since the beginning of the year, Coinbase’s stock has been on an upward trajectory, with its stock surging more than 150%. This increase has outpaced the overall cryptocurrency market, which has gained around 50% in the same period. Coinbase’s performance reflects the confidence of investors in the platform and its ability to navigate the challenges and opportunities within the crypto industry. It is worth noting that while Coinbase’s stock has surged nearly 10% in the past day, the global crypto market has only seen a mere 0.5% increase over the same period.

ARKK sold 135,152 Coinbase (COIN) shares valued at over $12 million on July 11. The CBOE mentioned Coinbase as a partner in conducting surveillance. Ark Invest, the investment management business run by Cathie Wood, sold Coinbase (COIN) shares on Tuesday as the price hit a new high for the year. Shares of Coinbase remained rising when several spot Bitcoin ETF applicants picked Coinbase as its surveillance-sharing partner, despite a lawsuit from the US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). The leading ARK Innovation ETF (ARKK) managed by Cathie Wood sold 135,152 Coinbase (COIN) shares valued at over $12 million on July 11. According to the transactions database, this is the first time ARK Innovation ETF has sold COIN shares since July 26 of last year. Booking Profits Furthermore, after accumulating shares in Coinbase (COIN) since last year, ARK Fintech Innovation ETF (ARKF) unloaded 160,887 of them in March. Despite the volatile cryptocurrency market, US governmental crackdown, and sector bankruptcy, Ark Invest has been a major investor in Coinbase for the last year and is now the fourth biggest holder. After seeing Coinbase’s stock price rise 10% to an intraday high of $92.15 before closing at $89.15, Cathie Wood’s Ark Invest opted to sell some of its holdings. In agreements covering the refiling of five spot Bitcoin ETFs, the Chicago Board Options Exchange (CBOE) mentioned Coinbase as a partner in conducting surveillance. Moreover, since the price of Coinbase (COIN) has risen 165% so far this year and 76% in the past month, the sale of shares by Cathie Wood suggests that she is likely booking profit. The price of COIN shares has risen further following the close of trading. Highlighted Crypto News Today: Cboe Refilings Added More Pressure on SEC to Approve Bitcoin ETF
 
The court rules that LBRY, Inc. violated Section 5 of the Securities Act of 1933. Attorneys assess the significance of this judgement in regard to Coinbase and Ripple case. The United States District Court for the District of New Hampshire has released its final judgement in the case of SEC v. LBRY. The court rules that LBRY, Inc. violated Section 5 of the Securities Act of 1933 and penalizes the company accordingly. In light of the continuing legal struggle between the SEC and others like Coinbase and Ripple, attorneys assess the significance of this judgement. Violation of Securities Act The Court approved the SEC’s Motion for Summary Judgement on November 7, 2022, finding LBRY liable for breaching Section 5 of the Securities Act. In light of the Court’s decision (Doc. 86), the Commission moved for the entry of a Final Judgement, which the Court has now granted. As a result of the Final Judgement, LBRY is prohibited from further breaching Section 5 of the Securities Act. In addition, under Section 21(d)(5) of the Exchange Act, LBRY is permanently prohibited from taking part in, or causing or permitting any other person to take part in, any issuance of crypto asset securities that is not registered under the Act. The LBRY decision casts doubt on how the pending dispute between the SEC and Ripple and Coinbase will turn out. The Major Questions Doctrine and secondary sales were not addressed in the LBRY judgement, which instead focused on Section 5 infractions. Similar claims about the selling of XRP as unregistered securities are at the heart of Ripple’s argument. According to Deaton, the SEC used the summary judgement ruling in the LBRY case to support its position in the Coinbase case, arguing that the court erred in failing to distinguish between primary sales from the issuer (LBRY) and secondary sales on exchanges.

As the highly anticipated US Consumer Price Index (CPI) data for June is set to be released today at 8:30 am EST, the Bitcoin (BTC) market finds itself at a crucial crossroads. With inflation concerns lingering and the Federal Reserve’s next moves under scrutiny, market participants eagerly await the impact of the CPI figures on BTC’s price trajectory. The expectations are as follows: Headline y/y at 3.1% (last 4.0%) Headline m/m at 0.3% (last 0.1%) Core CPI y/y of 5.0% (last 5.3%) Core CPI m/m of 0.3% (last 0.4%) The Fed’s Battle Against Inflation In recent months, inflationary pressures have been a cause for concern, capturing the attention of investors and economists alike. While headline inflation is cooling off fast and expected to fall further to 3.1% (from 4.0% in May), it is the core CPI, which excludes volatile food and energy prices, that has become increasingly important. In recent public appearances, members of the Federal Reserve (Fed) have maintained a hawkish stance and expressed concerns about a potential resurgence of inflation regarding the elevated core inflation. The underlying concern stems from the fact that inflation has primarily declined due to resolving supply chain problems, while core inflation remains elevated. The rise in wages could contribute to a cycle of increasing sticky core inflation. Although core CPI was at 5.3% in May, experts now anticipate a gradual decline to 5.0% in June. While this is progress, it shows how sticky core inflation currently remains. An unexpectedly sharp drop would therefore be extremely bullish. Any number below expectation could lead to a rally in the Bitcoin and cryptocurrency markets, as Christopher Inks, renowned trader and psychology coach, tweeted: A surprise in core inflation could have a significant impact on the next rate hike decision by the Fed. The next FOMC meeting is on July 26. At the moment, the CME FedWatch tool predicts with 92.4% a 25 bps rate hike which is holding back the markets. This probability is likely to drop massively if the core CPI surprises to the downside. As usual, JP Morgan has drawn up a game plan for the S&P 500 in view of today’s release of the Consumer Price Index. According to the banking giant, a drop in the CPI to 3%-3.2% has the highest probability at 45%. The S&P 500 could then gain between 0.5-0.75%. The second-highest probability is given by JP Morgan to a drop in the headline CPI to 2.8% to 2.9% (25%). In this case, the S&P 500 could rise by 1.5-1.75%. Moreover, the banking giant gives a 10% chance to a fall of the CPI to 2.7% or lower, while a surpassing of the forecasted reading (above 3.3%) is just at 20%. Potential Scenarios For Bitcoin If the CPI figures come in higher than expected, signaling elevated inflationary pressures, BTC could face a temporary retreat. In the case of CPI falling within the predicted range, BTC’s response may be moderate. Investors will closely monitor the data for signs of sustained inflation, potentially resulting in a slight dip in Bitcoin’s price. A lower-than-anticipated CPI figure, suggesting easing inflationary pressures, could ignite a bullish rally in BTC. Investors may perceive this as a positive signal which is signaling a continued rate pause by the Fed. A lower-than-expected core CPI reading has the potential to provide a much-needed boost for Bitcoin. At press time, the Bitcoin price has managed to break above the mid-range resistance, trading at $30,767.

Solana (SOL) has recently made a significant breakthrough, successfully shattering both long-term and short-term resistance lines and marking a pivotal moment for the cryptocurrency’s future. Resistance lines are an essential concept in technical analysis that represent price levels where selling pressure historically outweighed buying pressure, resulting in a temporary halt or reversal in an asset’s price movement. In the case of SOL, the breakthrough of both long-term and short-term resistance lines signifies a significant shift in the market dynamics. Breakout Signals A Shift In SOL Price Movement Analyzing the weekly time frame reveals an important development for Solana. Last week, SOL managed to break out from a long-term descending resistance line. Remarkably, this resistance line had been in place for a staggering 600 days, originating from the all-time high reached back in November 2021. Breakouts from such extended structures often serve as a significant indication that the preceding trend has concluded and a new one has commenced, but in the opposite direction. Considering SOL’s recent breakout from the long-term descending resistance line, it is highly likely that the cryptocurrency has initiated a new bullish trend reversal. This breakthrough represents a major shift in the market dynamics for SOL, suggesting that the selling pressure that previously impeded its progress has weakened or been overcome by increasing buying pressure. As a result, the stage is set for SOL to potentially experience an upward surge in value and embark on a new bullish trajectory. Meanwhile, over the previous week, Solana has experienced a notable 98.0% surge in trading volume, accompanied by a 0.91% rise in the coin’s circulating supply. Current SOL Price And Recent Performance At present, the SOL price listed on CoinGecko stands at $22.07, highlighting a notable 1.7% rally within the past 24 hours. Over the course of the last seven days, SOL has exhibited an impressive climb of 14.7%. These recent price movements further support the notion of a potential bullish trend reversal, as SOL continues to gather positive momentum. While the current analysis suggests a bullish outlook for Solana, it is essential to acknowledge the possibility of a price correction. If SOL loses its current momentum, there is a chance that it could retrace to the descending resistance line. However, it is worth noting that there are no immediate indications or signals in the short term to suggest such a decline is likely to occur.
