hpos10i-lands-on-byvotes-to-get-community-backing-for-bybit-listing

DUBAI, UAE, Nov. 28, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — Bybit, the world’s second-largest cryptocurrency exchange by trading volume, unveiled a new candidate for a potential Bybit Spot listing via ByVotes, HPOS10I (HarryPotterObamaSonic10Inu). Voting is now open for Bybit users with an opportunity to divide a prize pool of 1,800,000 HPOS10I.

From now to Nov. 29, 8AM UTC, supporters of HPOS10I may cast their votes for the project in two simple steps: deposit eligible assets into their Bybit account to produce a holdings snapshot, and head over to ByVotes to cast their votes. With sufficient votes from the community, the project will be listed on Bybit Spot, and the voters will receive a share of the airdrop from HPOS10I.

The iconic memecoin was the first of its kind to fuse the realm of fantasy and the chaotic lure of crypto, leaving its mark in crypto history since its launch in May 2023. It is known for its vibrant community, the Sproto Gremlins, an NFT collection of 3,333 exclusive unique manifestations of HPOS10I’s egregore.

The new mechanism enhanced both project quality and community engagements. A variety of tokens have achieved 100% listing odds via ByVotes, including CHILLGUY, LUCE, and NEIROCTO, among others. Multiple projects featured exclusive airdrops for the community that helped them become listed on Bybit Spot. 

ByVotes provides an arena for niche projects where participants stand to be rewarded from various prize pools if the projects they vote for succeed in getting listed status on Bybit Spot: ByVotes Spot.

The global mobile wallet and payment market is set for explosive growth, with projections indicating a surge to $71.28 billion by 2031. This remarkable expansion, driven by increase in demand for multi-currency mobile wallets and growing demand for contactless payment solutions.

NEW YORK, Nov. 27, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — According to a new comprehensive report from The Insight Partners, the global Mobile Wallet and Payment market is observing significant growth owing to the demand for multi-currency mobile wallets. Remitting money from one home country to another can be a time-consuming operation owing to the varied conversion rates, high remittance fees, and related taxes. A multi-currency wallet allows businesses to pay, receive, and save various currencies in a single digital wallet rather than maintaining separate accounts for each international currency. The multi-currency digital wallet eases overseas payments and currency conversions. Moreover, the multi-currency wallet provides various guaranteed benefits for cross-border payments.

The global mobile wallet and payment market is observing substantial growth and is expected to maintain its upward trajectory in the foreseeable future. This growth can be accredited to numerous factors. Firstly, contactless payment adoption has risen dramatically across the globe, as it eliminates consumers’ need to carry cash while making purchases. Digital payments, which include near-field communication (NFC) and QR code-based transactions, are becoming more popular. Consumers are highly preferring contactless payment solutions for speeding financial transactions. The demand for a quick, safe, and clean payment method, particularly in the post-pandemic era, has accelerated the use of contactless technology. This has transformed the checkout experience in both physical and digital stores, making faster and more convenient transactions.

Increasing Government Initiatives for Adoption of Mobile Wallet and Payment Solutions: Mobile wallet and payment solutions are critical for consumers and businesses, as they increase accessibility, improve security, reduce transactional costs, and make payments faster. Increasing technological advancements, rising consumer demand for two-factor authentication (2FA) security, and other factors are boosting the demand for mobile wallets and payment solutions. This also encourages government bodies to take initiatives to support the adoption of mobile wallets and payment solutions in order to secure their business from financial risks. For instance, the DigiDhan Mission, established under the Ministry of Electronics and Information Technology (MeitY) in India, aims to promote a cashless economy and provide a smooth digital payment experience for all citizens.

Expansion of E-Commerce Industry: The rise in the e-commerce business and consumers’ preference for online shopping has increased the adoption of mobile wallets and payment solutions for making quick payments. In May 2024, The Census Bureau of the Department of Commerce revealed that the estimate of the US retail e-commerce sales for the first quarter of 2024 was US$ 289.2 billion due to the seasonal variation adjustments and not price change. This represents a 2.1% (±0.7%) rise from the fourth quarter of 2023. Retail sales in the first quarter of 2024 stood at US$ 1,820.0 billion, with a fall of 0.1 % (±0.4%) from the fourth quarter of 2023. In the first quarter of 2024, e-commerce expanded by 8.6% (±1.1%) compared with the first quarter of 2023. Total retail sales were increased by 1.5% (±0.5%). In the first quarter of 2024, e-commerce sales made up 15.9% of the total sales.

Emergence of Real-Time Payments in Developing Nations: Efficient and secure ways to make transactions are increasing the demand for real-time payments (RTPs). These technologies have made payments more convenient, quick, and secure, as well as eliminating the need for cash or cheques. The acceptance of RTPs has enabled rapid payment between businesses and organizations. Users can initiate payments at a minimal or no cost using a mobile number or QR code, eliminating the necessity for bank account details. Countries, including Kenya, Mexico, Brazil, and Sweden, are increasingly demanding mobile wallets and payment solutions to conduct transactions in real-time. The usage of mobile devices has been one of the most significant advances in real-time payment systems. With the growth of smartphones and mobile payments, consumers can easily send and receive payments on the go, eliminating the need for a computer or physical card reader.
