Dog (Bitcoin) is a fully decentralized memecoin on the Bitcoin blockchain, backed by a community dedicated to onboarding millions of people to Bitcoin.  Dog is secured by the Bitcoin blockchain and exists on Bitcoin L1, marking a significant innovation compared to Bitcoin with just BTC. Dog is a Bitcoin Runes token with a minimal on-chain footprint, native to Bitcoin, and stored in UTXOs, just like Bitcoin.   What is the project about?  Dog does not do any paid promotion and is fully decentralized just like Bitcoin. Every influencer who chooses to post about Dog either received the airdrop or bought on secondary. Dog leverages the CC0 license to ensure that Dog is not owned by any single entity but rather by everyone. This had lead to the "DOG Army" independently creating art, apps, lotteries, plushies, websites, podcast, magazines, X account, IRL meetups, clothing lines, PFP collections, Telegram groups, and TikTok/Instagram about Dog.  What makes your project unique?  Dog was airdropped in the fairest memecoin launch ever. In early 2024, the Bitcoin Ordinals ecosystem came together in a full volunteer initiative that rewarded early adopters of the Ordinals Protocol. There was no team allocation, and 100% of the supply was airdropped for free. The airdrop algorithm favored neither whales nor influencers; it was determined by the community and made open-source for maximum transparency.

Dog (Bitcoin)

DOG is trending as its dedicated 'DOG Army' passionately advocates for its position as the leading Bitcoin-native memecoin, highlighting its unique permanence and direct link to Bitcoin's infrastructure. Community discussion is amplified by news of companies like C2 Blockchain ($CBLO) significantly expanding their $DOG treasury holdings, signaling growing institutional interest and long-term conviction.

Litecoin is a peer-to-peer cryptocurrency created by Charlie Lee. It was created based on the Bitcoin protocol but differs in terms of the hashing algorithm used. Litecoin uses the memory intensive Scrypt proof of work mining algorithm. Scrypt allows consumer-grade hardware such as GPU to mine those coins.  Why Litecoin? Litecoin is a cryptocurrency that has evolved from Bitcoin after its own popularity in the industry, this alternative, or ‘altcoin’ has emerged to allow investors to diversify their digital currency package, according to Investopedia. Litecoin is one of the most prominent altcoins and was created by former Google employee and Director of Engineering at Coinbase, Charlie Lee. Litecoin was the first to alter Bitcoin and the most significant difference is that it takes 2.5 minutes for Litecoin to generate a block, or transaction, in comparison to Bitcoin's 10 minutes.  ‘While this matters little to traders, miners who use hardware to run Bitcoin's network cannot switch over to Litecoin. This keeps bigger mining conglomerates away from Litecoin because they cannot easily optimize their profits by swapping to another coin, contributing to a more decentralized experience. Litecoin also has bigger blocks, and more coins in circulation, making it more affordable and swift when transacting,’ Investopedia explained.  As explained above, Litecoin can transact a lot faster than Bitcoin, but there are also a number of other characteristics that investors need to know before trading. Litecoin can handle higher volumes of transactions because of the capability of transacting faster and if Bitcoin attempted to transact on the scale of its altcoin, a code update would be needed. However, Litecoin’s blocks would be larger, but with more ‘orphaned blocks'. The faster block time of litecoin reduces the risk of double spending attacks - this is theoretical in the case of both networks having the same hashing power.  Litecoin Technical Details: The transaction confirmation time taken for Litecoin is about 2.5 minutes on average (as compared to Bitcoin's 10 minutes). The Litecoin network is scheduled to cap at 84 million currency units.   Litecoin has inspired many other popular alternative currencies (eg. Dogecoin) because of its Scrypt hashing algorithm in order to prevent ASIC miners from mining those coins. However it is said that by the end of this year, Scrypt ASIC will enter the mass market.

Brenmiller Energy Ltd. (Nasdaq: BNRG) is a leading global thermal energy storage provider, targeting a fast-growing market opportunity worth an estimated $448 million in 2024. To better understand how the company plans to capitalize on the market opportunities, Hawk Point Media reached out to its Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, Avi Brenmiller, who provided reasons for the optimism about his company's competitive position to claim its share of the global market opportunity. Here's what he said:Q. The discussions about cleaner and more efficient energy sources are global. How does Brenmiller Energy fit into the conversation?A. To put it simply- in a loud way, particularly related to thermal energy storage. We've invested over $100 million to develop technologies that better manage thermal energy storage. That's facilitated us to accrue a robust 49-project pipeline in 13 countries, which puts an estimated $500 million in potential sales in play. While well-positioned to quickly monetize these current project potentials, we see significantly more new thermal energy storage project opportunities surfacing in 2024. Based on demonstrated competitive benefits, I believe our TES technology will enable us to capture a sizable share of those emerging opportunities as well.Q. What are some of those competitive benefits?A. Let me note this first: We identify at least seven companies we directly compete with. They all have intrinsic strengths that can help serve a thermal energy storage sector expected to present a multi-billion dollar combined sales opportunity by the end of this decade. Their strengths make us work harder to differentiate our products and services, which we are doing by developing our TES platform to be comparably better in efficiency (E2S), embedded hybrid charging, and embedded steam generation.We're succeeding in that mission. A standout measure is our round-trip efficiency, which delivers a 97% energy capture rate, which is between 4% and 10% higher than our closest competitors. This is a vital consideration because high efficiency means that a greater proportion of the stored energy can be recovered and used sustainably and at a much lower cost. That, of course, will be a major factor when clients choose a provider.Q. What else are clients and regulatory frameworks demanding?A. Beyond price and sustainability factors, global market clients want reliability and readiness to implement. We check those two boxes, as evidenced by Brenmiller Energy operating at a Technology Readiness Level (TRL) of 8, which indicates a mature and well-tested technology. This TRL score is more than important; competitively speaking, it can be a vital contributor to steepening our growth trajectory curve because it tangibly demonstrates our commitment to reliability and performance. Equally important as a competitive distinction, we are the only fully vertically integrated company with the ability to serve the comprehensive needs of the market today; we control projects from start to finish, a competitive advantage that's attracting new client interest and expanding current project relationships.Q. Can you elaborate on some of those relationships and projects?A. One getting special attention is our flagship Heineken-backed project at Tempo Beverages Ltd.'s beverage production facility in Netanya, Israel, which is the sole producer and distributor of Heineken and Pepsi products in Israel. In a previous update, we announced advancing to the construction phase of the project, now manufacturing critical components for Tempo's 32 MWh bGen™ from our gigafactory in Israel.That Tempo bGen™ project is attracting interest from some of the world's largest corporations based on our solutions' being competitive with natural gas and less volatile than oil. In other words, we are showing the world that our technology can deliver similar energy-generating results while mitigating hundreds of millions of carbon dioxide equivalent emissions released yearly.Q. Has that already led to other strategic partnerships, or are you in the planning stages?A. Yes, we are deep into maximizing strategic opportunities. To meet the increasing demand for our bGen™ systems, we have joined forces with environmentally savvy companies with strategic relationships currently expanding our business footprint in Europe, the United States, India, and Canada.We are also advancing partnerships with global brands and distributors that want to decarbonize industrial heat and explore alternative energy technologies. Those relationships also put Brenmiller Energy in the world's largest markets, where we are designing and implementing projects that can deliver internal rates of return from investments between 10% and 35%.Q. You recently announced a new service model, HaaS. What is that?A. It's our Heat as a Service model ("HaaS"), which we expect will be a significant value driver starting this year. We see this as the most innovative approach to monetizing market opportunities while serving a critically needed demand. Immediately, HaaS enhances our vision for TES technology applications and accelerates access to zero-emission heat for industrial power users.What makes the HaaS model attractive is that it allows us to design, build, deploy, own, and operate our bGen™ thermal batteries at customer sites to take advantage of local power market incentives. We view this business model as the ultimate and most favorable win-win-win proposition because it facilitates us in delivering customers the lowest possible cost for heat while generating multiple, high-margin recurring revenue streams for ourselves and our customers over the project's lifetime. Q. Based on what you've highlighted, does your current market cap appropriately represent fair value?A. As the CEO, I am always focused on building sustainable shareholder value. Does the current $2.4 million market cap represent fair value? I think not. I base that evaluation on tangibles and potential, including the value inherent to a significant business pipeline that can generate upwards of $500 million over project lifetimes. More importantly, we are not content at current levels.&nbsp; We are strengthening our service infrastructure to add more client projects to our pipeline, which we believe will fill quickly based on competitive advantages and proven performance in a highly technical TES market. Thus, with our products and services validated as excellent and our manufacturing capacity increasing at the highest-ever rate, any valuation gap between share price, assets, and performance should close organically.To ensure that's the direction taken, Brenmiller Energy will continue to do what it's already doing- prove to the global market that its highly efficient and scalable thermal energy storage solutions are more than the best choice for project investment, but also for consumers and the planet.
