    AUSTIN, Texas, June 04, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Easy Street Capital, a leading private real estate lender, has successfully closed its first $175 million Residential Transition Loan (RTL) securitization. As the third unrated issuer to debut an RTL securitization in 2025, the company expands its financing capacity for real estate investors in a rebounding real estate market.

    Securitization bundles loans into securities sold to institutional investors. As a result of the securitization, Easy Street Capital is reducing rates and offering more affordable financing options for investors seeking to renovate homes, build new properties, or expand rental portfolios.

    “This securitization wouldn’t be possible without our borrowers who have placed their trust and faith in us over the years,” said Casey Denton, Partner of Easy Street Capital. “Lower rates will better support investors pursuing various real estate projects such as urban fix-and-flips, ground-up construction projects, or single-family rentals, and we’re excited to help them achieve their goals.”

    This milestone follows a remarkable year for Easy Street Capital, which originated a record $1.2 billion in loan volume in 2024, a 20% increase from 2023. Such growth marks the company’s expanding role in real estate lending, even amidst a challenging housing market.

    As a top lender to real estate investors, Easy Street Capital combines a client-first mindset with deep market expertise to provide financing that’s quick, flexible, and reliable. From hard money loans to BRRRR strategies, the company’s diverse product suite empowers investors to capitalize on new opportunities in high-growth markets across the country.

  • MIL-OSI: NobleAI Introduces Powerful, Practical AI Solutions For Chemistry and Energy

    Source: GlobeNewswire (MIL-OSI)

    SAN FRANCISCO, June 04, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — NobleAI announced today commercial availability of its best-in-class VIP (Visualizations, Insights & Predictions) Platform, an enterprise-grade SaaS offering that delivers the richest feature-set in the rapidly-growing materials informatics sector. For chemistry, the VIP Platform dramatically speeds up the development of molecules, compounds, and formulations while reducing the cost and waste associated with the current slow, iterative, lab-centric paradigm. Energy companies use NobleAI’s solutions to enhance forecasting accuracy, improve asset performance and reduce operational uncertainty. In both sectors, the result is faster time to market, better technical decisions, and greater profitability.

    NobleAI also announced the availability of two new pre-built applications that run on the VIP Platform. Deploy Your Own Models (DYOM) and Model Builder For Formulation (MBFF) are industry-first capabilities that democratize access to advanced predictive modeling technology, making powerful practical AI tools accessible across any enterprise. These two new applications join the previously released Risk Assessment and Ingredient Replacement (RAIR) applications in the expanding VIP Platform ecosystem.

    “Innovation in chemistry and energy has been constrained by slow and expensive development cycles, even as digital transformation has reshaped other sectors,” said NobleAI CEO Sunil Sanghavi. “NobleAI’s VIP Platform and Science-Based AI technology transform that paradigm fundamentally. We help companies develop and deploy solutions for their real-world problems, whether molecules or oil wells or anything in between. And we do this with unmatched speed, as companies can now do on laptops what previously had to be done in labs, and can achieve results in minutes or days, not months or years. Our practical AI solutions reduce risk and deliver increased revenues and profits for our enterprise customers.”

    “This is a seminal year for the fusion of AI and science. NobleAI is redefining possibilities by transforming innovation through intelligent, iterative design across industries from chemicals to energy and materials,” said Sudeep Basu, PhD, Global Innovation Practice Leader, Frost & Sullivan.

    VIP Platform: Transformational Capabilities

    The VIP Platform is an integrated suite of tools for creating and using AI models to solve complex challenges in chemistry, materials and energy. It is the only solution on the market delivering science-based ensemble models, incorporating multiple use case-relevant scales (from molecular to meso to macro) as well as all appropriate scientific principles. This architecture, the core of NobleAI’s proprietary SBAI technology, delivers high-confidence predictions even with limited training data. All customer data is strictly private and used only for that customer’s model.

    The VIP Platform enables development teams to generate predictions by conducting rapid virtual, “in-silico” experiments – including forward and inverse design, and systematically varying ingredient volume or concentrations to test performance impacts (parameter sweeps) – before testing a few promising candidates in the lab, dramatically accelerating the development process.

    Scientists can check the predictions through explainable AI models, trace predictions back to their scientific foundations, and examine outcomes at any level of detail – eliminating the “black box” problem of today’s AI solutions.

    Other core capabilities of the platform include visualizations and insights. These enable users to explore, compare, and understand model predictions through intuitive, interactive visuals. Teams can analyze prediction uncertainty, generate custom charts and graphs, and compare results side by side to identify trends and optimize outcomes. Interactive side-by-side chart analysis tools, along with suggested experiments for validation, help users interpret AI results quickly and confidently — turning predictions into actionable insights.

    VIP is a modern, full-stack platform built with enterprise-grade security and flexible cloud deployment options.

    VIP Applications: Democratizing AI
    NobleAI is also introducing two powerful, no-code applications on the scalable VIP Platform that democratize access to AI across the enterprise:

    Deploy Your Own Models (DYOM) enables data science teams to securely integrate and deploy their own proprietary AI models on the VIP Platform. Lab scientists and other users can then run these models on their own and access the full set of rich capabilities of the VIP Platform. Data science teams are freed to focus on model development and improvement.

    Model Builder For Formulations (MBFF) is a transformational application that puts advanced science-based model creation directly in the hands of product developers and formulators without requiring data science expertise. Through an intuitive, easy-to-use interface, users can upload any available data, define inputs and outputs, and select preferred performance metrics. MBFF validates data quality and generates candidate SBAI models using NobleAI’s proprietary technology. Users can select and deploy the most appropriate model directly within the VIP Platform.

    With the launch of the VIP Platform and its growing suite of applications, NobleAI is transforming how chemistry and energy companies apply practical AI to real-world challenges. NobleAI delivers unmatched speed, scientific rigor and commercial impact — transforming how innovation happens.

    About NobleAI
    NobleAI delivers practical AI solutions for complex challenges in chemistry and energy. Our data-efficient Science-Based AI (SBAI) technology combines with the powerful Visualizations, Insights & Predictions (VIP) Platform, and enables customers to compress months of work into minutes. Our commercially proven solutions, built on secure, enterprise-ready technology, are trusted by global enterprises to drive innovation, build market share and improve profitability across a wide range of challenges.

  • MIL-OSI: Mine Your Way to Millions: Bitcoin Solaris Turns Your Smartphone into a Wealth-Generating Machine

    Source: GlobeNewswire (MIL-OSI)

    TALLINN, Estonia, June 04, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Bitcoin Solaris (BTC-S) has announced the launch the Beta version of their new mobile-first mining solution designed to make cryptocurrency mining accessible to a global audience for a selected group of users. By leveraging the power of smartphones, BTC-S enables users to participate in mining without the need for expensive hardware or specialized technical knowledge.

    A True Shift in Wealth-Building

    Bitcoin Solaris isn’t just promising a revolution in mining—it’s delivering one. This project is built to empower ordinary users with tools that were once reserved for tech-savvy miners and institutional whales. At the heart of it all is the upcoming Solaris Nova App, a sleek cross-platform tool that allows users to mine BTC-S directly from smartphones, browsers, and desktops.

    With intuitive one-click mining, adaptive algorithms, and in-app wallets, even beginners can participate in wealth generation. What used to require thousands of dollars in hardware is now possible from your pocket. This is where Web3 meets true decentralization—through effort, not privilege.

    How Bitcoin Solaris Makes Mobile Mining Real

    Thanks to its robust architecture, BTC-S delivers mobile mining with speed, efficiency, and inclusivity. The platform is designed to remove barriers—no costly rigs, no complex setups, and no middlemen.

    Technical Innovations Powering BTC-S:

    • Dual-layer structure: The Base Layer uses PoW and PoC for decentralization and validator fairness, while the Application Layer leverages PoT and PoH for near-instant transaction finality.
    • Solaris Nova App (through the exciting release): Offers plug-and-play mining on mobile and desktop. Integrated tutorials and wallets make onboarding frictionless.
    • Mining Power Marketplace: Users can rent or sell computational power through smart contracts and performance-based payouts.
    • Device adaptability: Whether you’re using a GPU, ASIC, laptop, or smartphone, the system optimizes mining load to fit your hardware.
    • Energy efficiency: The system uses 99.95% less energy than traditional PoW blockchains, ensuring green scalability.
    • Advanced security: From biometric logins to remote wipe and encrypted mining protocols, safety is built in.

    These innovations don’t just improve accessibility—they create the foundation for consistent long-term earnings. Bitcoin Solaris transforms mining into something anyone can understand, join, and profit from.

    The Future of Decentralization Is Already Mining—Start with BTC-S

    Why the Presale Is Exploding

    The Bitcoin Solaris presale is now in Phase 6, and momentum is building fast. With only around 8 weeks left, over 11,000 users have already joined, and $1.8M+ has been raised. It’s being called one of the shortest and most explosive presales in the crypto space. Investors know what’s coming—$6 today could become $20 at launch.

    • Current Price: $6
    • Next Phase: $7
    • Launch Price: $20
    • Bonus: 10%
    • Launch Date: July 31, 2025

    Early adopters are betting big not just on price—but on usability, infrastructure, and a mining revolution.

    A Community Backed by Experts and Influencers

    BTC-S isn’t flying under the radar anymore. A wave of interest has hit the crypto scene, with influencers and analysts digging into the tech and economics of Bitcoin Solaris. One of the standout reviews came from Crypto Nitro, who broke down why the project’s mining capabilities are catching serious attention. With decentralization at its core and innovation at every layer, it’s becoming the go-to altcoin for forward-thinking investors.

    A Glimpse Into the Future: The BTC-S Roadmap

    Bitcoin Solaris isn’t a short-term play. Its long-term roadmap is designed to evolve the ecosystem far beyond launch.

    • Q2–Q4 2025: Core development, smart contracts, community building
    • Q1 2026: Wallets, testnet, dual-layer architecture optimization
    • Q2 2026: Mainnet readiness, exchange listings
    • Q3 2026: Solaris Nova full release, governance systems
    • 2027–2028: Layer-2 scaling, cross-chain bridges, and real-world partnerships with enterprises and governments

    From accessibility to adoption, Bitcoin Solaris is engineered for growth.

    Conclusion: The Wealth Revolution Starts in Your Pocket

    While the crypto world gets distracted by meme cycles and flashy headlines, a quiet revolution is brewing. Bitcoin Solaris isn’t just building a coin—it’s building a participatory ecosystem where your phone becomes your mining rig, and your effort becomes your equity.

    The upcoming Solaris Nova App and the dual-consensus engine are just the beginning. With utility, transparency, and powerful scalability at its core, BTC-S is turning smartphones into income engines—and early adopters into potential millionaires.

    The opportunity to “mine your way to millions” is no longer a fantasy. It’s a reality, and it starts with Bitcoin Solaris.

  • MIL-OSI: Bitget Partners with University of Zurich Blockchain Center, Providing Opportunities and Scholarships for Students

    Source: GlobeNewswire (MIL-OSI)

    VICTORIA, Seychelles, June 04, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Bitget, the leading cryptocurrency exchange and Web3 company, has announced a partnership with the University of Zurich, the world’s top #3 university (according to Coindesk’s 2021/22 rankings) for blockchain education. The exchange will sponsor the 6th edition of International Summer School—Deep Dive into Blockchain 2025 program at the University of Zurich Blockchain Center (UZH BCC), offering scholarships and career opportunities to blockchain-curious students. This marks a new chapter in Bitget’s commitment to blockchain education and youth empowerment.

    The scholarship initiative, part of Bitget’s broader $10M Blockchain4Youth (B4Y) program, aims to make high-impact blockchain education more accessible to bright, motivated students, presenting them with wider opportunities. Deep Dive into Blockchain (DDiB) is the University of Zurich’s flagship international summer school, hosted by the Faculty of Business, Economics, and Informatics in collaboration with the Global Student Experience and organized by the UZH Blockchain Center under the academic leadership of its chairman, Prof. Dr Claudio J. Tessone. The three-week program offers an immersive, interdisciplinary exploration of blockchain from academic, technological, legal, and economic perspectives.

    “We are delighted to partner with Bitget for Deep Dive into Blockchain. Their support empowers the next generation of blockchain professionals by making education all around the globe more accessible. This collaboration reflects our shared vision of fostering innovation, diversity, and global talent in the Web3 space,” — Dr Claudio J. Tessone, Professor of Blockchain and Distributed Ledger Technologies, University of Zurich, and Director of Deep Dive into Blockchain.

    In an ecosystem often defined by its complexity and speed, education remains the most enduring bridge between innovation and understanding. Built on these beliefs, Bitget is funding scholarships for up to 10 students who meet both the academic and financial criteria set by UZH. More than just a subsidy, the Bitget Blockchain4Youth Scholarship is a belief that the future of blockchain should be built by the most capable minds, not just the most privileged.

    Each scholarship will fully cover tuition, accommodation, transportation within Zurich, access to academic materials and site visits, as well as participation in intercultural programs and events. This comprehensive support structure is designed to empower students to focus not on logistics but on learning, and to walk away not only with a certificate but with a deeper perspective.

    “As someone who entered this industry from outside the traditional mold, I know what access and opportunity can unlock. This scholarship isn’t just about learning blockchain—it’s about equipping future leaders with the tools to question, to build, and to leave the space better than they found it. That’s the kind of legacy we want to help shape,” said Vugar Usi Zade, COO at Bitget.

    “As much as the world needs more developers, lawyers, or economists, it needs more cross-disciplinary thinkers who understand the full societal impact of blockchain,” he added.

    The 2025 program will also feature a masterclass by Bitget COO, Vugar Usi Zade, offering students firsthand insight from one of the industry’s leading operators. This academic-industry dialogue enables the long-term strategic partnership between Bitget and UZH, anchored in mutual goals of innovation, education, and responsible development.

    With this partnership, Bitget isn’t just funding education. It’s shaping the future of the industry.

    Source: GlobeNewswire (MIL-OSI)

    NEW YORK, June 04, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — RentRedi, the fastest-growing landlord software that makes renting easy for everyone, has launched a new Custom Website Builder. The user-friendly feature is designed to help landlords easily create personalized, professional websites to market their rental properties directly from within the RentRedi platform, providing them with a powerful new way to attract tenants.

    A video accompanying this announcement is available at: https://www.globenewswire.com/NewsRoom/AttachmentNg/c23ceedd-31d3-4486-9cf8-d904603e874e

    No technical expertise is required to use the RentRedi Custom Website Builder, where landlords can centralize their listings, highlight unit features, and provide application access on a branded webpage. Whether managing a single property or a larger portfolio, landlords can use the Custom Website Builder feature to streamline their marketing efforts and increase visibility with prospective tenants through a tailored online presence.

    “We built the Custom Website Builder to simultaneously improve and simplify how landlords connect with renters,” said RentRedi Co-founder and CEO Ryan Barone. “By giving landlords the ability to easily create and personalize a professional listing webpage in just a few clicks, we’re helping them stand out in a competitive rental market, while keeping everything they need to promote and manage their rental business in one platform.”

    Within the RentRedi dashboard, landlords can enable their custom website with a single toggle, switching it on to create the webpage and keep it visible, and turning it off at any time with the same easy toggle feature when they no longer wish to display the site.

    Key features of the RentRedi Custom Website Builder include:

    • A centralized webpage to showcase all available rental units
    • Customizable branding, including company name, logo, and theme colors
    • A live preview mode to view edits in real-time
    • A unique, shareable URL to promote listings across marketing channels

    The Custom Website Builder is now available and marks another step in RentRedi’s mission to empower landlords with accessible, tech-forward tools that simplify the rental process and enhance the tenant experience. For more information, visit rentredi.com/listings.

  • MIL-OSI: UPDATE: RIB Software Launches Global Customer Campaign: “You See It. Together, We’ll See It Through”

    Source: GlobeNewswire (MIL-OSI)

    Stuttgart, Germany, June 04, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Stuttgart, Germany – May 2025 – RIB Software, a global leader in engineering and construction software technology, today announced the launch of its latest global brand campaign: “You See It. Together, We’ll See It Through.” The campaign celebrates the diverse community of industry professionals shaping the built environment – and RIB’s role in empowering them with digital solutions that enable smarter, faster, and more sustainable project outcomes.

    “Whether our customers are creating entire cities, infrastructure, or spaces where people live or work, RIB stands beside them from planning to breaking ground and beyond – with tools that reduce costs, save time, and minimize environmental impact,” explains Mads Bording, Chief Strategy & Marketing Officer at RIB Software.

    The campaign reflects RIB’s belief that the future of the industry depends on more connected, empowered project teams. Its suite of connected solutions helps architecture, engineering, and construction (AEC) professionals simplify operations, improve profitability, and deliver sustainable results – whether they’re managing a small-scale development or a multi-billion-dollar infrastructure project. 

    “At RIB, we believe every project starts with a vision,” said René Wolf, CEO of RIB Software. “Our new brand campaign is about showing that we don’t just provide the technology – we commit to the journey. Our customers see the vision, and together, we’re committed to helping them see it through.”

    Trusted by leading AEC professionals worldwide, RIB’s tools provide a digital thread across the entire project lifecycle, ensuring more effective collaboration and better outcomes at every stage. No matter the size or complexity of a project, RIB delivers the insights, automation, and support needed to get it over the line, on time and on budget.

    Every structure begins with an idea. But it takes more than vision to bring complex builds to life. From architects and estimators to project managers and executives, the engineering and construction industry depends on close collaboration, timely insight, and trusted support. RIB’s technology is built with this in mind – tailored to meet the real-world needs of the people who plan, build, and deliver.

    As part of RIB’s Hard Hats & Hi Tech podcast series, customers from around the world have shared their firsthand experience with RIB tools, and how these solutions are helping them meet real challenges on real projects.

    “RIB Candy has made my life easier. Everything is integrated, which means I can manage cost reports, payment certificates, and valuations without switching between tools,” said Luscha Matsane, Quantity Surveyor at Tri-Star Construction. “It’s a platform that understands how we actually work on-site, and it’s changed how I collaborate and justify decisions with clients.”

    “RIB SpecLink helps me work faster, smarter, and with more confidence,” said Eric Letbetter, specification consultant and founder of Letbetter Ink. “The linking engine automates decisions across the spec set, reduces errors, and lets me focus on quality and context. It’s completely changed the way I approach spec writing—and how I teach others to do it.”

    “At RIB, we don’t just build software – we build it the way people in the built environment actually work,” said René. “We understand the pressure of deadlines, the need for precision, and the challenge of coordination across multiple stakeholders. Our role is to help our customers deliver with confidence.”

    RIB invites AEC leaders, innovators, and visionaries to explore the campaign and discover how a partnership with RIB can help them realize their boldest ideas.

    Standardized Performance and Fund details can be obtained by clicking the ETF Ticker in the table above or by visiting us at www.yieldmaxetfs.com

    Performance data quoted represents past performance and is no guarantee of future results. Investment return and principal value of an investment will fluctuate so that an investor’s shares, when sold or redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost and current performance may be lower or higher than the performance quoted above. Performance current to the most recent month-end can be obtained by calling (833) 378-0717.

    Note: DIPS, FIAT, CRSH, YQQQ and WNTR are hereinafter referred to as the “Short ETFs.”

    Distributions are not guaranteed. The Distribution Rate and 30-Day SEC Yield are not indicative of future distributions, if any, on the ETFs. In particular, future distributions on any ETF may differ significantly from its Distribution Rate or 30-Day SEC Yield. You are not guaranteed a distribution under the ETFs. Distributions for the ETFs (if any) are variable and may vary significantly from period to period and may be zero. Accordingly, the Distribution Rate and 30-Day SEC Yield will change over time, and such change may be significant.

    Investors in the Funds will not have rights to receive dividends or other distributions with respect to the underlying reference asset(s).

    1All YieldMax® ETFs shown in the table above (except YMAX, YMAG, FEAT, FIVY and ULTY) have a gross expense ratio of 0.99%. YMAX, FEAT have a Management Fee of 0.29% and Acquired Fund Fees and Expenses of 0.99% for a gross expense ratio of 1.28%. YMAG has a management fee of 0.29% and Acquired Fund Fees and Expenses of 0.83% for a gross expense ratio of 1.12%. FIVY has a Management Fee of 0.29% and Acquired Fund Fees and Expenses of 0.59% for a gross expense ratio of 0.88%. “Acquired Fund Fees and Expenses” are indirect fees and expenses that the Fund incurs from investing in the shares of other investment companies, namely other YieldMax® ETFs. ULTY has a gross expense ratio of 1.40%, and a net expense ratio after the fee waiver of 1.30%. The Advisor has agreed to a fee waiver of 0.10% through at least February 28, 2026.

    2The Distribution Rate shown is as of close on June 3, 2025. The Distribution Rate is the annual distribution rate an investor would receive if the most recent distribution, which includes option income, remained the same going forward. The Distribution Rate is calculated by annualizing an ETF’s Distribution per Share and dividing such annualized amount by the ETF’s most recent NAV. The Distribution Rate represents a single distribution from the ETF and does not represent its total return. Distributions may also include a combination of ordinary dividends, capital gain, and return of investor capital, which may decrease an ETF’s NAV and trading price over time. As a result, an investor may suffer significant losses to their investment. These Distribution Rates may be caused by unusually favorable market conditions and may not be sustainable. Such conditions may not continue to exist and there should be no expectation that this performance may be repeated in the future.

    3The 30-Day SEC Yield represents net investment income, which excludes option income, earned by such ETF over the 30-Day period ended May 31, 2025, expressed as an annual percentage rate based on such ETF’s share price at the end of the 30-Day period.

    4Each ETF’s strategy (except those of the Short ETFs) will cap potential gains if its reference asset’s shares increase in value, yet subjects an investor to all potential losses if the reference asset’s shares decrease in value. Such potential losses may not be offset by income received by the ETF. Each Short ETF’s strategy will cap potential gains if its reference asset decreases in value yet subjects an investor to all potential losses if the reference asset increases in value. Such potential losses may not be offset by income received by the ETF.
    5ROC refers to Return of Capital. The ROC percentage indicates how much the distribution reflects an investor’s initial investment. The figures shown for each Fund in the table above are estimates and may later be determined to be taxable net investment income, short-term gains, long-term gains (to the extent permitted by law), or return of capital. Actual amounts and sources for tax reporting will depend upon the Fund’s investment activities during the remainder of the fiscal year and may be subject to changes based on tax regulations. Your broker will send you a Form 1099-DIV for the calendar year to tell you how to report these distributions for federal income tax purposes.

    Each Fund has a limited operating history and while each Fund’s objective is to provide current income, there is no guarantee the Fund will make a distribution. Distributions are likely to vary greatly in amount.

    Important Information

    This material must be preceded or accompanied by the prospectus. For all prospectuses, click here.

    Contact Vince DiLullo vdilullo@tidalfg.com for more information.

    Tidal Financial Group is the adviser for all YieldMax® ETFs.

    THE FUND, TRUST, AND ADVISER ARE NOT AFFILIATED WITH ANY UNDERLYING REFERENCE ASSET.

    Risk Disclosures (applicable to all YieldMax ETFs referenced above, except the Short ETFs)

    YMAX, YMAG, FEAT and FIVY generally invest in other YieldMax® ETFs. As such, these two Funds are subject to the risks listed in this section, which apply to all the YieldMax® ETFs they may hold from time to time.

    Investing involves risk. Principal loss is possible.

    Referenced Index Risk. The Fund invests in options contracts that are based on the value of the Index (or the Index ETFs). This subjects the Fund to certain of the same risks as if it owned shares of companies that comprised the Index or an ETF that tracks the Index, even though it does not.

    Indirect Investment Risk. The Index is not affiliated with the Trust, the Fund, the Adviser, or their respective affiliates and is not involved with this offering in any way. Investors in the Fund will not have the right to receive dividends or other distributions or any other rights with respect to the companies that comprise the Index but will be subject to declines in the performance of the Index.

    Russell 2000 Index Risks. The Index, which consists of small-cap U.S. companies, is particularly susceptible to economic changes, as these firms often have less financial resilience than larger companies. Market volatility can disproportionately affect these smaller businesses, leading to significant price swings. Additionally, these companies are often more exposed to specific industry risks and have less diverse revenue streams. They can also be more vulnerable to changes in domestic regulatory or policy environments.

    Call Writing Strategy Risk. The path dependency (i.e., the continued use) of the Fund’s call writing strategy will impact the extent that the Fund participates in the positive price returns of the underlying reference asset and, in turn, the Fund’s returns, both during the term of the sold call options and over longer periods.

    Counterparty Risk. The Fund is subject to counterparty risk by virtue of its investments in options contracts. Transactions in some types of derivatives, including options, are required to be centrally cleared (“cleared derivatives”). In a transaction involving cleared derivatives, the Fund’s counterparty is a clearing house rather than a bank or broker. Since the Fund is not a member of clearing houses and only members of a clearing house (“clearing members”) can participate directly in the clearing house, the Fund will hold cleared derivatives through accounts at clearing members.

    Derivatives Risk. Derivatives are financial instruments that derive value from the underlying reference asset or assets, such as stocks, bonds, or funds (including ETFs), interest rates or indexes. The Fund’s investments in derivatives may pose risks in addition to, and greater than, those associated with directly investing in securities or other ordinary investments, including risk related to the market, imperfect correlation with underlying investments or the Fund’s other portfolio holdings, higher price volatility, lack of availability, counterparty risk, liquidity, valuation and legal restrictions.

    Options Contracts. The use of options contracts involves investment strategies and risks different from those associated with ordinary portfolio securities transactions. The prices of options are volatile and are influenced by, among other things, actual and anticipated changes in the value of the underlying instrument, including the anticipated volatility, which are affected by fiscal and monetary policies and by national and international political, changes in the actual or implied volatility or the reference asset, the time remaining until the expiration of the option contract and economic events.

    Distribution Risk. As part of the Fund’s investment objective, the Fund seeks to provide current income. There is no assurance that the Fund will make a distribution in any given period. If the Fund does make distributions, the amounts of such distributions will likely vary greatly from one distribution to the next.

    High Portfolio Turnover Risk. The Fund may actively and frequently trade all or a significant portion of the Fund’s holdings. A high portfolio turnover rate increases transaction costs, which may increase the Fund’s expenses.

    Liquidity Risk. Some securities held by the Fund, including options contracts, may be difficult to sell or be illiquid, particularly during times of market turmoil.

    Non-Diversification Risk. Because the Fund is “non-diversified,” it may invest a greater percentage of its assets in the securities of a single issuer or a smaller number of issuers than if it was a diversified fund.

    New Fund Risk. The Fund is a recently organized management investment company with no operating history. As a result, prospective investors do not have a track record or history on which to base their investment decisions.

    Price Participation Risk. The Fund employs an investment strategy that includes the sale of call option contracts, which limits the degree to which the Fund will participate in increases in value experienced by the underlying reference asset over the Call Period.

    Single Issuer Risk. Issuer-specific attributes may cause an investment in the Fund to be more volatile than a traditional pooled investment which diversifies risk or the market generally. The value of the Fund, which focuses on an individual security (ARKK, TSLA, AAPL, NVDA, AMZN, META, GOOGL, NFLX, COIN, MSFT, DIS, XOM, JPM, AMD, PYPL, SQ, MRNA, AI, MSTR, Bitcoin ETP, GDX®, SNOW, ABNB, BABA, TSM, SMCI, PLTR, MARA, CVNA), may be more volatile than a traditional pooled investment or the market as a whole and may perform differently from the value of a traditional pooled investment or the market as a whole.

    Inflation Risk. Inflation risk is the risk that the value of assets or income from investments will be less in the future as inflation decreases the value of money. As inflation increases, the present value of the Fund’s assets and distributions, if any, may decline.

    Indirect Investment Risk. The Index is not affiliated with the Trust, the Fund, the Adviser, or their respective affiliates and is not involved with this offering in any way.

    Risk Disclosures (applicable only to GPTY)

    Artificial Intelligence Risk. Issuers engaged in artificial intelligence typically have high research and capital expenditures and, as a result, their profitability can vary widely, if they are profitable at all. The space in which they are engaged is highly competitive and issuers’ products and services may become obsolete very quickly. These companies are heavily dependent on intellectual property rights and may be adversely affected by loss or impairment of those rights. The issuers are also subject to legal, regulatory, and political changes that may have a large impact on their profitability. A failure in an issuer’s product or even questions about the safety of the product could be devastating to the issuer, especially if it is the marquee product of the issuer. It can be difficult to accurately capture what qualifies as an artificial intelligence company.

    Technology Sector Risk. The Fund will invest substantially in companies in the information technology sector, and therefore the performance of the Fund could be negatively impacted by events affecting this sector. Market or economic factors impacting technology companies and companies that rely heavily on technological advances could have a significant effect on the value of the Fund’s investments. The value of stocks of information technology companies and companies that rely heavily on technology is particularly vulnerable to rapid changes in technology product cycles, rapid product obsolescence, government regulation and competition, both domestically and internationally, including competition from foreign competitors with lower production costs. Stocks of information technology companies and companies that rely heavily on technology, especially those of smaller, less-seasoned companies, tend to be more volatile than the overall market. Information technology companies are heavily dependent on patent and intellectual property rights, the loss or impairment of which may adversely affect profitability.

    Risk Disclosure (applicable only to MARO)

    Digital Assets Risk: The Fund does not invest directly in Bitcoin or any other digital assets. The Fund does not invest directly in derivatives that track the performance of Bitcoin or any other digital assets. The Fund does not invest in or seek direct exposure to the current “spot” or cash price of Bitcoin. Investors seeking direct exposure to the price of Bitcoin should consider an investment other than the Fund. Digital assets like Bitcoin, designed as mediums of exchange, are still an emerging asset class. They operate independently of any central authority or government backing and are subject to regulatory changes and extreme price volatility.

    Risk Disclosures (applicable only to BABO and TSMY)

    Currency Risk: Indirect exposure to foreign currencies subjects the Fund to the risk that currencies will decline in value relative to the U.S. dollar. Currency rates in foreign countries may fluctuate significantly over short periods of time for a number of reasons, including changes in interest rates and the imposition of currency controls or other political developments in the U.S. or abroad.

    Depositary Receipts Risk: The securities underlying BABO and TSMY are American Depositary Receipts (“ADRs”). Investment in ADRs may be less liquid than the underlying shares in their primary trading market.

    Foreign Market and Trading Risk: The trading markets for many foreign securities are not as active as U.S. markets and may have less governmental regulation and oversight.

    Foreign Securities Risk: Investments in securities of non-U.S. issuers involve certain risks that may not be present with investments in securities of U.S. issuers, such as risk of loss due to foreign currency fluctuations or to political or economic instability, as well as varying regulatory requirements applicable to investments in non-U.S. issuers. There may be less information publicly available about a non-U.S. issuer than a U.S. issuer. Non-U.S. issuers may also be subject to different regulatory, accounting, auditing, financial reporting, and investor protection standards than U.S. issuers.

    Risk Disclosures (applicable only to GDXY)

    Risk of Investing in Foreign Securities. The Fund is exposed indirectly to the securities of foreign issuers selected by GDX®’s investment adviser, which subjects the Fund to the risks associated with such companies. Investments in the securities of foreign issuers involve risks beyond those associated with investments in U.S. securities.

    Risk of Investing in Gold and Silver Mining Companies. The Fund is exposed indirectly to gold and silver mining companies selected by GDX®’s investment adviser, which subjects the Fund to the risks associated with such companies.

    The Fund invests in options contracts based on the value of the VanEck Gold Miners ETF (GDX®), which subjects the Fund to some of the same risks as if it owned GDX®, as well as the risks associated with Canadian, Australian and Emerging Market Issuers, and Small-and Medium-Capitalization companies.

    Risk Disclosures (applicable only to YBIT)

    YBIT does not invest directly in Bitcoin or any other digital assets. YBIT does not invest directly in derivatives that track the performance of Bitcoin or any other digital assets. YBIT does not invest in or seek direct exposure to the current “spot” or cash price of Bitcoin. Investors seeking direct exposure to the price of Bitcoin should consider an investment other than YBIT.

    Bitcoin Investment Risk: The Fund’s indirect investment in Bitcoin, through holdings in one or more Underlying ETPs, exposes it to the unique risks of this emerging innovation. Bitcoin’s price is highly volatile, and its market is influenced by the changing Bitcoin network, fluctuating acceptance levels, and unpredictable usage trends.

    Digital Assets Risk: Digital assets like Bitcoin, designed as mediums of exchange, are still an emerging asset class. They operate independently of any central authority or government backing and are subject to regulatory changes and extreme price volatility. Potentially No 1940 Act Protections. As of the date of this Prospectus, there is only a single eligible Underlying ETP, and it is an investment company subject to the 1940 Act.

    Bitcoin ETP Risk: The Fund invests in options contracts that are based on the value of the Bitcoin ETP. This subjects the Fund to certain of the same risks as if it owned shares of the Bitcoin ETP, even though it does not. Bitcoin ETPs are subject, but not limited, to significant risk and heightened volatility. An investor in a Bitcoin ETP may lose their entire investment. Bitcoin ETPs are not suitable for all investors. In addition, not all Bitcoin ETPs are registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940. Those Bitcoin ETPs that are not registered under such statute are therefore not subject to the same regulations as exchange traded products that are so registered.

    Risk Disclosures (applicable only to the Short ETFs)

    Investing involves risk. Principal loss is possible.

    Price Appreciation Risk. As part of the Fund’s synthetic covered put strategy, the Fund purchases and sells call and put option contracts that are based on the value of the underlying reference asset. This strategy subjects the Fund to certain of the same risks as if it shorted the underlying reference asset, even though it does not. By virtue of the Fund’s indirect inverse exposure to changes in the value of the underlying reference asset, the Fund is subject to the risk that the value of the underlying reference asset increases. If the value of the underlying reference asset increases, the Fund will likely lose value and, as a result, the Fund may suffer significant losses.

    Put Writing Strategy Risk. The path dependency (i.e., the continued use) of the Fund’s put writing (selling) strategy will impact the extent that the Fund participates in decreases in the value of the underlying reference asset and, in turn, the Fund’s returns, both during the term of the sold put options and over longer periods.

    Purchased OTM Call Options Risk. The Fund’s strategy is subject to potential losses if the underlying reference asset increases in value, which may not be offset by the purchase of out-of-the-money (OTM) call options. The Fund purchases OTM calls to seek to manage (cap) the Fund’s potential losses from the Fund’s short exposure to the underlying reference asset if it appreciates significantly in value. However, the OTM call options will cap the Fund’s losses only to the extent that the value of the underlying reference asset increases to a level that is at or above the strike level of the purchased OTM call options. Any increase in the value of the underlying reference asset to a level that is below the strike level of the purchased OTM call options will result in a corresponding loss for the Fund. For example, if the OTM call options have a strike level that is approximately 100% above the then-current value of the underlying reference asset at the time of the call option purchase, and the value of the underlying reference asset increases by at least 100% during the term of the purchased OTM call options, the Fund will lose all its value. Since the Fund bears the costs of purchasing the OTM calls, such costs will decrease the Fund’s value and/or any income otherwise generated by the Fund’s investment strategy.

    Counterparty Risk. The Fund is subject to counterparty risk by virtue of its investments in options contracts. Transactions in some types of derivatives, including options, are required to be centrally cleared (“cleared derivatives”). In a transaction involving cleared derivatives, the Fund’s counterparty is a clearing house rather than a bank or broker. Since the Fund is not a member of clearing houses and only members of a clearing house (“clearing members”) can participate directly in the clearing house, the Fund will hold cleared derivatives through accounts at clearing members.

    Derivatives Risk. Derivatives are financial instruments that derive value from the underlying reference asset or assets, such as stocks, bonds, or funds (including ETFs), interest rates or indexes. The Fund’s investments in derivatives may pose risks in addition to, and greater than, those associated with directly investing in securities or other ordinary investments, including risk related to the market, imperfect correlation with underlying investments or the Fund’s other portfolio holdings, higher price volatility, lack of availability, counterparty risk, liquidity, valuation and legal restrictions.

    Options Contracts. The use of options contracts involves investment strategies and risks different from those associated with ordinary portfolio securities transactions. The prices of options are volatile and are influenced by, among other things, actual and anticipated changes in the value of the underlying reference asset, including the anticipated volatility, which are affected by fiscal and monetary policies and by national and international political, changes in the actual or implied volatility or the reference asset, the time remaining until the expiration of the option contract and economic events.

    Distribution Risk. As part of the Fund’s investment objective, the Fund seeks to provide current income. There is no assurance that the Fund will make a distribution in any given period. If the Fund does make distributions, the amounts of such distributions will likely vary greatly from one distribution to the next.

    High Portfolio Turnover Risk. The Fund may actively and frequently trade all or a significant portion of the Fund’s holdings.

    Liquidity Risk. Some securities held by the Fund, including options contracts, may be difficult to sell or be illiquid, particularly during times of market turmoil.

    Non-Diversification Risk. Because the Fund is “non-diversified,” it may invest a greater percentage of its assets in the securities of a single issuer or a smaller number of issuers than if it was a diversified fund.

    New Fund Risk. The Fund is a recently organized management investment company with no operating history. As a result, prospective investors do not have a track record or history on which to base their investment decisions.

    Price Participation Risk. The Fund employs an investment strategy that includes the sale of put option contracts, which limits the degree to which the Fund will participate in decreases in value experienced by the underlying reference asset over the Put Period.

    Single Issuer Risk. Issuer-specific attributes may cause an investment in the Fund to be more volatile than a traditional pooled investment which diversifies risk or the market generally. The value of the Fund, for any Fund that focuses on an individual security (e.g., TSLA, COIN, NVDA, MSTR), may be more volatile than a traditional pooled investment or the market as a whole and may perform differently from the value of a traditional pooled investment or the market as a whole. Inflation Risk. Inflation risk is the risk that the value of assets or income from investments will be less in the future as inflation decreases the value of money. As inflation increases, the present value of the Fund’s assets and distributions, if any, may decline.

    Risk Disclosures (applicable only to CHPY)

    Semiconductor Industry Risk. Semiconductor companies may face intense competition, both domestically and internationally, and such competition may have an adverse effect on their profit margins. Semiconductor companies may have limited product lines, markets, financial resources or personnel. Semiconductor companies’ supply chain and operations are dependent on the availability of materials that meet exacting standards and the use of third parties to provide components and services.

    The products of semiconductor companies may face obsolescence due to rapid technological developments and frequent new product introduction, unpredictable changes in growth rates and competition for the services of qualified personnel. Capital equipment expenditures could be substantial, and equipment generally suffers from rapid obsolescence. Companies in the semiconductor industry are heavily dependent on patent and intellectual property rights. The loss or impairment of these rights would adversely affect the profitability of these companies.

    Risk Disclosures (applicable only to YQQQ)

    Index Overview. The Nasdaq 100 Index is a benchmark index that includes 100 of the largest non-financial companies listed on the Nasdaq Stock Market, based on market capitalization.

    Index Level Appreciation Risk. As part of the Fund’s synthetic covered put strategy, the Fund purchases and sells call and put option contracts that are based on the Index level. This strategy subjects the Fund to certain of the same risks as if it shorted the Index, even though it does not. By virtue of the Fund’s indirect inverse exposure to changes in the Index level, the Fund is subject to the risk that the Index level increases. If the Index level increases, the Fund will likely lose value and, as a result, the Fund may suffer significant losses. The Fund may also be subject to the following risks: innovation and technological advancement; strong market presence of Index constituent companies; adaptability to global market trends; and resilience and recovery potential.

    Index Level Participation Risk. The Fund employs an investment strategy that includes the sale of put option contracts, which limits the degree to which the Fund will benefit from decreases in the Index level experienced over the Put Period. This means that if the Index level experiences a decrease in value below the strike level of the sold put options during a Put Period, the Fund will likely not experience that increase to the same extent and any Fund gains may significantly differ from the level of the Index losses over the Put Period. Additionally, because the Fund is limited in the degree to which it will participate in decreases in value experienced by the Index level over each Put Period, but has significant negative exposure to any increases in value experienced by the Index level over the Put Period, the NAV of the Fund may decrease over any given period. The Fund’s NAV is dependent on the value of each options portfolio, which is based principally upon the inverse of the performance of the Index level. The Fund’s ability to benefit from the Index level decreases will depend on prevailing market conditions, especially market volatility, at the time the Fund enters into the sold put option contracts and will vary from Put Period to Put Period. The value of the options contracts is affected by changes in the value and dividend rates of component companies that comprise the Index, changes in interest rates, changes in the actual or perceived volatility of the Index and the remaining time to the options’ expiration, as well as trading conditions in the options market. As the Index level changes and time moves towards the expiration of each Put Period, the value of the options contracts, and therefore the Fund’s NAV, will change. However, it is not expected for the Fund’s NAV to directly inversely correlate on a day-to-day basis with the returns of the Index level. The amount of time remaining until the options contract’s expiration date affects the impact that the value of the options contracts has on the Fund’s NAV, which may not be in full effect until the expiration date of the Fund’s options contracts. Therefore, while changes in the Index level will result in changes to the Fund’s NAV, the Fund generally anticipates that the rate of change in the Fund’s NAV will be different than the inverse of the changes experienced by the Index level.

    LAS VEGAS, June 04, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Hyperscale Data, Inc. (NYSE American: GPUS), a diversified holding company (“Hyperscale Data” or the “Company”), today announced indirectly owned subsidiary Bitnile.com, Inc. (“Bitnile.com”) is now accepting the Nile Coin (NILE) (“Nile Coin”) as a form of payment for a package (the “Nile Package”) of Bitnile.com’s virtual in-game currency, Nile tokens (the “Tokens”). Bitnile.com officially launched the Nile Coin on the Solana Blockchain on May 3, 2025.

    The Tokens are used to enter a wide range of casino-style social games on Bitnile.com, including slots, poker and blackjack. The Tokens cannot be redeemed for cash or prizes. In addition to the Tokens, purchases of the Nile Package receive Nile sweeps coins (the “Coins”). The Coins, which cannot be purchased, give the holder sweepstakes entries, the winners of which can receive prizes or cryptocurrency (in the form of currency used to purchase the Nile Package that gifted the Coins).

    Joe Spaziano, Chief Executive Officer of Bitnile.com, stated, “Nile Coin brings real utility to our gaming ecosystem, and we are excited to accept it on the Bitnile.com platform. We are confident that this will expand the opportunities for users to utilize the Nile Coin and to enjoy the product offerings within the Bitnile.com platform. The acceptance of the Nile Coin along with other recently announced cryptocurrency is a major step forward in the development of the Bitnile.com platform.”

    This press release is for information purposes only and shall not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy, nor shall there be any sale of Nile Coins in any state or other jurisdiction in which such offer, solicitation or sale or such assets or securities would be unlawful under the laws of any such state or other jurisdiction.

    About Hyperscale Data, Inc.

    Through its wholly owned subsidiary Sentinum, Inc., Hyperscale Data owns and operates a data center at which it mines digital assets and offers colocation and hosting services for the emerging AI ecosystems and other industries. Hyperscale Data’s other wholly owned subsidiary, Ault Capital Group, Inc. (“ACG”), is a diversified holding company pursuing growth by acquiring undervalued businesses and disruptive technologies with a global impact.

    Hyperscale Data expects to divest itself of ACG on or about December 31, 2025 (the “Divestiture”). Upon the occurrence of the Divestiture, the Company would solely be an owner and operator of data centers to support high-performance computing services, though it may at that time continue to mine Bitcoin. Until the Divestiture occurs, the Company will continue to provide, through ACG and its wholly and majority-owned subsidiaries and strategic investments, mission-critical products that support a diverse range of industries, including an AI software platform, social gaming platform, equipment rental services, defense/aerospace, industrial, automotive, medical/biopharma and hotel operations. In addition, ACG is actively engaged in private credit and structured finance through a licensed lending subsidiary. Hyperscale Data’s headquarters are located at 11411 Southern Highlands Parkway, Suite 190, Las Vegas, NV 89141.

The Divestiture will occur through the voluntary exchange of the Series F Preferred Stock for shares of Class A Common Stock and Class B Common Stock of ACG (collectively, the “ACG Shares”). The Company reminds its stockholders that only those holders of the Series F Preferred Stock who agree to surrender such shares, and do not properly withdraw such surrender, in the exchange offer through which the Divestiture will occur, will be entitled to receive the ACG Shares and consequently be stockholders of ACG upon the occurrence of the Divestiture.

  • MIL-OSI: IQ121 Launches Advanced Legacy Building App, Digitally Safeguarding Vital Documents and Preserving Cherished Memories

    Source: GlobeNewswire (MIL-OSI)

    LONDON, June 04, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — A loved one’s passing brings both emotional pain and the heavy weight of complex legal and administrative tasks, leaving families with more to manage than just grief during their time of loss. Today, IQ121 announces the launch of its new legacy building platform, allowing users to safely organise, store and share their most important digital assets. This helps family members and business partners easily navigate paperwork, access important records and feel connected to their loved ones through the memory, photo and video-sharing capability.

    IQ121 stores essential items, including:

    • Legal documents (powers of attorney, trusts, vehicle documentation)
    • Finances (bank account details, investments, pension documentation)
    • Insurance policies covering life, property, high value items
    • Property deeds of title, jewelry collections, any other high value items
    • Health records
    • Passwords, security Q&As and account recovery steps
    • Wills and medical directives
    • Videos and photos
    • Memories and personal documents (family birth certificates, marriage certificates)

    The idea for IQ121 was generated by Hollywood actor Kunal Nayyar, best known for his role in “The Big Bang Theory,” during the COVID-19 pandemic. While organising his parents’ trip from India to the U.S., struggling to gather flight numbers, passport details and hotel confirmations, the frustration led him to question: “Why isn’t there an easier way to share this information?” With the pandemic causing many family members to experience sudden, unprecedented loss, the idea progressed into addressing other vital records people accumulate throughout life. Motivated by both a personal loss and a desire to ease others’ suffering, Nayyar created IQ121 to help people prepare for life’s hardest moments.

    “Navigating grief is already unbearable; the last thing families need is to feel confused or unprepared. IQ121 brings comfort, structure and lasting peace of mind during times of unimaginable difficulty,” Nayyar said. “We wanted to create a way to guide anyone facing loss through those times, with humanity and dignity, so they could focus on what truly matters most: honouring loved ones and coping with grief. IQ121 empowers people to take control of their legacy, because everyone’s story deserves to be honoured, shared and remembered.”

    IQ121 is not just for seniors; people of all ages can become members to store and protect their digital records accumulated over time. Plans will automatically pass down through trusted successors, ensuring a family’s legacy lives on.

    “IQ121 goes beyond file storage.

  • MIL-OSI: Black Gold Announces Commencement of Oil Production at Fritz 2-30

    Source: GlobeNewswire (MIL-OSI)

    VANCOUVER, B.C., June 04, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — BGX – Black Gold Exploration Corp. (the “Company” or “BGX”) (CSE: BGX) (OTCQB: BGXCF) (FRA: BLGX) is proud to announce that production has officially commenced at its flagship Fritz 2-30 well in Clay County, Indiana. This significant milestone marks BGX’s evolution from an ambitious exploration company to a full-fledged oil and gas producer — a pivot the Company achieved on schedule and on strategy.

    Today, BGX ceases to be just an exploration story. We are now a production company in the heart of the Illinois Basin” said Francisco Gulisano, CEO of BGX.

    From Concept to Commercialization — On Time, On Target

    Through its joint venture with LGX Energy Corp. (“LGX”), BGX rapidly advanced the Fritz 2-30 well from seismic, to permitting, to drilling to production at a pace that is rare for junior oil and gas companies. In the coming weeks the coming will release detailed data on production figures and reserves.

    This is just the beginning. We are now positioned to scale methodically one formation at a time with real production, real data, and real returns,” commented Mr. Gulisano.

    Our teams are proving what’s possible when you combine legacy geology with modern execution,” said Howard Crosby, CEO of LGX.

    Growth Chapter Begins

    In the Company’s view, the Fritz 2-30 well is just the first chapter of a broader story. The Company has now proven it can take a well from seismic analysis to production in under four months. BGX now plans to work with its JV partner LGX to bring several other wells online in an expedited fashion to fuel growth in the Company for all its stakeholders.

    Marketing Awareness

    To further fuel this growth, the Company has entered into a marketing and distribution service agreement with an arm’s-length marketing firm, Hillside Consulting and Media Inc. (“Hillside“) of Penticton B.C., to provide digital marketing services, including SEO, PPC, email, YouTube and social media channels to increase corporate awareness for a term of three months commencing June 4, 2025. The media disseminated will be generated using only publicly available information. The Company will pay Hillside a cash fee of $25,000 CAD plus applicable taxes. Hillside does not currently own any shares of the Company.

    Source: GlobeNewswire (MIL-OSI)

    WILMINGTON, Del., June 04, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Mental health is an urgent concern for students across South Africa, especially in underserved communities with limited access to care.

    To help close this gap, the University of KwaZulu-Natal (UKZN), Valio Technologies, and Brand Engagement Network Inc. (BEN) (NASDAQ: BNAI) are launching an inclusive, AI-powered mental health program that offers private, 24/7 support.

    Unlike scripted bots, BEN’s AI adapts to each individual, offering emotionally aware conversations, personalized guidance, and anonymized insights that help institutions better target support while maintaining full privacy protections.

    “We are honoured to work with the University of KwaZulu-Natal on this mission-driven initiative,” said Lefentse Nokaneng, CEO and Founder of Valio Technologies. “Together, we’re redefining how institutions support mental wellness at scale—using AI to build trust and access.”

    The co-development effort is already underway, with a launch at UKZN planned for later this year.

  • MIL-OSI: Panasonic TOUGHBOOK Delivers Connected Vehicle Solution For The AA

    Source: GlobeNewswire (MIL-OSI)

    End-to-end management of project has increased vehicle connectivity, efficiency, and ROI for the UK’s leading vehicle breakdown service.

    Bracknell, UK. 4th June 2025 – Panasonic TOUGHBOOK has successfully completed the installation of over 2,500 ruggedised 5G routers across The AA’s roadside vehicle fleet, delivering enhanced connectivity, operational efficiency, and cost savings. The ambitious nationwide deployment of Panasonic’s Connected Vehicle solution was completed in just over nine months, and was conducted in partnership with The AA, Cradlepoint (an Ericsson company), and Gamma Telecom.

    Panasonic TOUGHBOOK managed the entire process, including overall project management, testing, installation, training, reporting, and ongoing field services maintenance for the next five years.

    Optimised Connectivity Across the UK
    Connectivity is provided in a 25-metre radius around the vehicle. By integrating a seamless twin-5G modem solution, using primary and backup SIMs, The AA can take advantage of up to 98% connectivity across the UK.

    With real-time data from multiple hardware solutions and applications – such as vehicle diagnostics, onboard cameras, and call-out information – reliant on strong, reliable connectivity, Panasonic’s solution minimises downtime and maximises efficiency at the roadside.

    It also reduces total cost of ownership for The AA, as individual cellular plans for multiple devices are not required. This helps to prevent any unexpected data usage costs, whilst removing the need to purchase multiple devices with 5G capabilities.

    To further optimise operations, Panasonic also manages Ericsson’s NetCloud Manager platform on behalf of The AA, providing real-time insights into data usage, application efficiency, and network performance. The single-pane-of-glass monitoring system provides full visibility over the entire fleet, providing The AA with real-time insights into the solution’s effectiveness.

    Maximising Efficiency at the Roadside
    For some patrols, The AA also utilises a Screen Mirroring Solution, which enables on-screen data from a TOUGHBOOK rugged device to be displayed on an infotainment screen in the front of patrol vehicles. This increases productivity, flexibility and communication for The AA’s technicians. 

    Wendy Richardson-Brooks, IT Operations Improvement & Innovation Manager at The AA, said: “This is a game-changing solution for our patrols. With our previous solution that could only connect to 3G or 4G connections, connectivity was significantly reduced, stifling productivity on the roadside. Now, with Panasonic and its partners, we have a ruggedised solution that delivers close to 100% connectivity for all of our patrols. This helps our technicians to more quickly and efficiently diagnose and repair vehicles at the roadside – increasing customer satisfaction.”

    Nick Miller, EU Sales Strategy Manager at Panasonic TOUGHBOOK, added: “This project demonstrates Panasonic’s commitment to delivering best-in-class connectivity solutions, in condensed time frame. By combining cutting-edge ruggedised routers, industry-leading network management, and a fully managed service approach, Panasonic is ensuring The AA’s fleet remains at the forefront of technological innovation.”

  • MIL-OSI: Winterberry Group Research Unveils How Marketers Can Improve the Effectiveness Of $1.12 Trillion of Global Media Spend

    Source: GlobeNewswire (MIL-OSI)

    NEW YORK, June 04, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Creative, labeled as “non-working” media, is responsible for driving 40-70% of an advertising campaign’s performance, yet it has been deprioritized and undervalued. Global advertising spend is projected to reach $1.12 trillion by 2026, so investment in creative and content is expected to surpass $140 billion. Winterberry Group, a strategic growth consultancy, today released the findings of a new report that details how to collapse the artificial siloes of “working” and “non-working” media and achieve marketing effectiveness with media, audience and creative intelligence.

    The report defines creative intelligence as the ability to collect, structure and analyze creative decisions against performance data to continuously optimize assets for effectiveness and engagement.

    “It is time to overhaul outdated thinking that the billions spent on creative production is non-working,” said Bruce Biegel, senior managing partner of Winterberry Group. “To truly unlock the full potential of modern marketing effectiveness with greater financial discipline, media, audience and creative data have to converge into a full-funnel, personalized and measurable experience at scale.”

    Brands and agencies can connect every stage of the creative and campaign process to outcomes. Creative intelligence empowers smarter briefings, pre-flight analysis, real-time activation and optimization as well as creative lifetime value (Creative LTV).

    With the pace of AI advancements and budgets under pressure, Winterberry predicts creative intelligence will be widely adopted by leading marketers in the next 24-36 months. Starting in channels with the most accessible creative data – social, email and mobile messaging, and then expand into programmatic digital formats such as display, video, audio, and connected TV (CTV).

    Other key findings from the report include:

    • Nearly half of marketers (49%) still equate “creative intelligence” with ideation alone, rather than recognizing it as a system for measurement and optimization.
    • Nearly all marketers (99%) view measuring creative LTV as important – with 72% calling it very important.
      • However, only 54% say their organization measures creative LTV very effectively.
    • Creative intelligence is most impactful for understanding brand awareness (41%) and performance outcomes (38%).
    • Creative quality is universally valued as the most important metric for understanding creative intelligence followed by brand lift by both brands (49%) and agencies (38%).
      • Brands then are more interested in measuring conversions (33%), while agencies lean into audience relevance (31%) and engagement (28%).
    • Overall, brands and agencies expect creative intelligence to be led by marketing strategy and operations (but agencies favor external advisory roles more than brands).
    • Brands prioritize agencies for executional support in the evolving creative intelligence ecosystem, while agencies see themselves having more of a focus on technology and strategic integration.

    “Intelligent creative isn’t an emerging trend, it’s the new standard,” said Laura Desmond, CEO of Smartly. “With audience data in place, AI accelerating, and content demands at an all-time high, brands that harness creative intelligence are turning what was once marketing guesswork into a performance engine. The shift isn’t coming, it’s already here, and it’s redefining how we drive growth with speed, precision, and impact.”

    “Winterberry Group’s research powerfully validates what we see every day: for too long, creative has been under-leveraged as a driver of marketing effectiveness,” said Wesley ter Haar, Chief AI and Revenue Officer at Monks. “At Monks, we’re focused on building the AI-powered connective tissue that unifies creative, media and audience data, enabling brands to drive measurable and scalable marketing effectiveness everywhere they show up.”

    “Creative Intelligence isn’t a theory—it’s a system,” said Rob Rakowitz, head of marketing at VidMob. “What makes this whitepaper so valuable is its attention to the mechanics: the inputs, outputs and feedback loops that turn creative into a measurable asset across the entire marketing lifecycle.”

    “This valuable research aligns with over two decades of Analytic Partners’ ROI Genome findings: Creative is the #2 driver of marketing effectiveness—right after spend,” said Nancy Smith, President and CEO of Analytic Partners. “Advertisers must incorporate creative within their optimization and measurement programs to maximize commercial impact.”

    For this research report, Winterberry Group surveyed over 200 senior brand marketing and agencies executives, data, analytics and technology thought leaders across the United States and United Kingdom, conducting in-depth interviews with over 50 industry experts and influencers from customers and users of creative intelligence solutions.

    This is the first research report in the Winterberry Group series on creative intelligence – Demystifying Creative Intelligence: Enhancing Marketing Effectiveness at the Intersection of Media, Audience and Creative.

    This report was made possible with the support of IAA North America, Analytic Partners, Smartly.io, VidMob, Monks, APR and ContinuumGlobal.

  • MIL-OSI: The Netherlands and the UK among the simplest countries for doing business in Europe, says GBCI 2025

    Source: GlobeNewswire (MIL-OSI)

    LONDON, June 04, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Greece, France, Italy and Turkey are the most complex jurisdictions to do business in the region, according to the 2025 Global Business Complexity Index (GBCI) recently launched by TMF Group.

    The GBCI studies over 250 indicators of complexity in 79 jurisdictions that represent 94% of the world’s GDP. The report has consistently shown that countries in Southern Europe and Latin America are the most complex for doing business, and that continues to be true in 2025. At the other end of the scale, the least complex places to do business tend to be in Northern Europe and several of the offshore investment hubs.

    The report notes that complexity is relatively straightforward to navigate, at least for larger multinationals able to absorb the cost of complying with local rules. What is much harder to deal with is uncertainty. US-led sanctions, lockdowns in China and the Suez blockage had already begun a shift towards more diversified supply chains, with companies seeking to reduce their reliance on single countries for sourcing, building or selling their products. A part of that solution noted in last year’s report was the rise of connector economies like Mexico and Vietnam, bridging trade between China and the US in the so-called ‘China plus one’ strategy. That strategy has now fallen foul of US tariffs, set to reflect a country’s trade surplus in goods with the US and so punishing countries with connector status.

    Even if tariffs abate, their launch and rapid shifts point to an underlying risk for companies trading from countries with a high US trade surplus. The report notes a drop in confidence in stability, with the majority of jurisdictions (55%) reporting prioritisation of trade corridor diversity. It identifies a number of countries that might now emerge as the new connectors — with low levels of complexity pointing to business-friendly rules, a low US trade surplus pointing to less likely retaliatory action, a reasonable size and sophistication of economy to support a variety of activity at scale and absorb investment without tipping heavily into US trade surplus, and a multipolar stance that should allow them to trade across different blocs. Those countries include the UK and the Netherlands in Europe, Egypt and Saudi Arabia in the Middle East, and Australia and Hong Kong in Asia Pacific.

    TMF Group’s CEO Mark Weil, said:

    “The real challenge for businesses today isn’t complexity, it’s uncertainty. With rising trade tensions, a shifting geopolitical landscape and economic unpredictability, companies are forced to make decisions in an environment that can change overnight. Tariffs are just the latest signal of the risks of supply chain concentration. Diversification is a necessity in this context. The good news is that businesses can offset some of the complexities of diversification by reducing their own internal intricacies. Our benchmarking reveals stark differences in structural complexity among similar firms. We see an opportunity here: by simplifying their structures and support models — for example, by having fewer legal entities and a few trusted global partners — businesses can gain flexibility.”

    Bitwise Accelerates European Expansion with Addition of Melissa De Sanctis and Fabio Massellani

    De Sanctis joins the marketing team as Product Marketing Manager, while Massellani joins the sales team as Senior Regional Consultant – Southern Europe

    June 4, 2025, Bitwise, a leading global digital asset management firm, announces the addition of two new professionals to its team: Melissa De Sanctis as Product Marketing Manager and Fabio Massellani as Senior Regional Consultant – Southern Europe.

    Melissa De Sanctis brings over 20 years of experience in the financial sector, including 17 years at Borsa Italiana. She has held roles such as Business Development Manager for retail investors and later served as Senior Marketing Manager, leading commercial and marketing activities for the group’s secondary markets. She oversaw the development and launch of new instruments for IDEM, the derivatives segment of Borsa Italiana. Most recently, she was Head of Marketing and Communication at Spectrum Markets, a pan-European regulated venue for trading securitized derivatives.

    In her new role at Bitwise, Melissa — based in Milan — joins the marketing team led by Maximilian Monteleone, Head of Marketing for Europe at Bitwise. While based in Italy, her strategic focus will also support the Spanish market.

    Fabio Massellani developed his career at BPER Banca Group, where he held various roles with increasing responsibility. He worked as a fund selector and equity strategist at Optima SIM, with a specific focus on passive and indexed strategies. In recent years, he served as Sales Associate at HANetf, contributing to business development and product positioning — including in Spain.

    At Bitwise, Fabio joins the sales team and reports directly to Bradley Duke, Managing Director and Head of Europe at Bitwise. He will support the company’s growth across Southern Europe, with a particular focus on Spain, Italy, and Portugal.

    These additions strengthen Bitwise’s presence in the region, following the recent appointment of Flavio Rossetti as Regional Consultant for Southern Europe, and are part of a broader European expansion plan initiated in August 2024 with the acquisition of ETC Group.

    Bradley Duke, Managing Director and Head of Europe at Bitwise, commented: “We’re excited to welcome Melissa and Fabio to Bitwise. As institutional and professional investors increasingly recognize the potential of digital assets to enhance portfolio performance, our role is to be a trusted partner in that journey. Southern Europe — including Spain — is a key market for us, and the addition of Melissa and Fabio, with their deep expertise and local insight, will help us serve investors even better.”

    Melissa De Sanctis said: “I’m thrilled to join an innovative and forward-thinking firm like Bitwise. The crypto sector is evolving rapidly, and I strongly believe that providing secure, regulated instruments like ETPs is essential to making this space more accessible. It’s a real opportunity to engage more institutional and retail participants in the world of digital assets and blockchain technology.”

    Fabio Massellani added: “I’m delighted to join a dynamic and fast-growing company like Bitwise. I look forward to applying my experience in the Southern European market to support our company’s mission. I’m confident my contribution will help strengthen Bitwise’s footprint and support its commitment to innovation in the fast-moving world of crypto investing.”

    Press Release
    Nokia to lead PROACTIF, a multimillion Europe robotics and unmanned technology project 

    • The venture is projected to generate around €90 million in revenue by 2035.
    • The consortium brings together 42 leading European technology companies from 13 countries to redefine how emergency situations and critical infrastructure are managed.

    4 June 2025
    Espoo, Finland – Nokia has been selected to lead PROACTIF, a project funded by the European Union’s Chips Joint Undertaking. The project aims to strengthen Europe’s technology resilience and leadership in ECS technologies and support the autonomy of the European Drone and Robotics industry.

    The consortium anticipates generating around €90 million in revenue, 50 products, and more than 15 new industry patents by 2035, enabling increased market share and leadership. The project’s additional impact includes dozens of new collaborations, hundreds of new jobs, and over €40 million of additional investments.

    “Nokia’s extensive expertise has helped establish drone technology best practices and transform drones into daily helpers for public safety and mission-critical operations. We are honored to lead this project. It demonstrates Nokia’s commitment to fostering innovation and resilience across Europe. By collaborating with leading organizations, this initiative will address critical challenges in security and sustainability, delivering real-world benefits for society,” said Thomas Eder, Head of Embedded Wireless Solutions, Nokia.

    The PROACTIF consortium brings together 42 partners and four affiliates from 13 countries with a focus on critical infrastructure surveillance and emergency management in Europe. Under Nokia’s leadership, the groundbreaking venture will redefine how emergency situations and critical infrastructure are managed in Europe. It will unite academic institutions, SMEs, and industry leaders to develop cutting-edge, cost-efficient, eco-efficient, safe, and cybersecure unmanned vehicle (UxV) systems to address European civil security needs.
