Amesite Announces AI-Powered App Winning Enterprise Contracts In Growing Companies With Hundreds Of Franchise Owners – What’s Driving The Momentum?

Benzinga

By Meg Flippin, Benzinga The home healthcare market is in a state of flux. The need for home healthcare workers is soaring as the population in the U.S. ages. In about ten years, 78 million people in the U.S. will be 65 or over. By 2060, The Institute on Aging expects the demographic will increase to 98 million and account for a quarter of the U.S. population. At the same time, the nation is aging, there is a dearth of home healthcare workers, and it looks like it’s only going to get worse. Over the next decade, the institute expects the number of home health aide jobs to grow by 425,000, creating a shortage that will need to be filled. As it stands, about 95% of home and community-based care providers say they face moderate to severe staffing shortages, with 77% turning away new clients because of the lack of workers. What’s more, 72% of providers say staffing shortages make it hard to meet quality standards. If nothing is done, that problem will only get worse. It’s why some home healthcare providers are turning to technology, namely NurseMagic™, for an assist. The brainchild of Amesite (NASDAQ: AMST), NurseMagic is a proprietary AI-powered app designed for nurses and home health care workers. The company reports it has closed on contracts with franchise owners representing nationally recognized brands that operate hundreds of locations across the country – resulting in recurring revenue in a total addressable market it estimates at $330 billion. Streamlining Work, Improving Care The AI-powered app, which Amesite reports has seen explosive growth since its launch this past summer, provides nurses and home healthcare professionals with a handy tool that writes comprehensive documentation instantly, can quickly translate medical terms into easy-to-understand language, create work emails, assist nurses in talking to patients with compassion, coach nurses on taking effective breaks during the day, convert images to text, provide key information about medications and collect instant feedback. Amesite says its AI app integrates seamlessly into the operational frameworks of home care agencies, enhancing workflow efficiency and supporting employee retention by lightening administrative burdens and reducing worker burnout. As a result, AI technology can enable agencies to make the most of existing resources and extend care to more clients who would otherwise be turned away due to staffing constraints, reports Amesite. Take the Senior Helpers franchise in Northern Orange County for one example. Since adopting NurseMagic, owner Steven Nickens said NurseMagic has been empowering his staff to get answers to questions quickly through the app, saving time and ensuring accurate results. “NurseMagic's technology is transforming my organization with its intuitive and easy-to-use platform,” said Nickens. “NurseMagic is both powerful and incredibly easy to use, making it accessible to everyone on my team." Nickens isn’t alone in his assessment. Joshua Porter, owner of the Spokane North BrightStar Care franchise, said he uses NurseMagic to support the company’s rapid growth. "As a new franchise owner with extensive business and engineering experience, I’m thrilled to share how quickly we’re growing. When I discovered NurseMagic, I immediately recognized it as a must-have to stay competitive in today’s market,” said Porter, noting there are no hidden fees or messy contracts when bringing NurseMagic into the fray. Growth Driven By NurseMagic In addition to improving the quality of care for patients, NurseMagic is also aiming to help healthcare franchises grow their businesses. That’s certainly the case at the Fargo Senior Helpers franchise, with owner Tanya Ferber saying the app is enabling her to go after more medically complex clients in the new year. Plus, incorporating NurseMagic into her business attracts more tech-savvy healthcare workers. “It’s a value-added tool for my business and takes our quality to the next level,” says Ferber. It’s not just home healthcare franchises that benefit. Amesite says that by selling NurseMagic to franchise owners from well-known brands in the home health and home care industries, its revenue should grow and cement NurseMagic’s status as a must-have tool. “We made two tactical decisions: first, to build a best-in-class infrastructure that delivers top-tier compliance, security and low operating costs; and second, to price NurseMagic accessibly, at a sustainable margin, focusing on scaling sales rather than maximizing margins with a few customers,” said Dr. Ann Marie Sastry, CEO of Amesite. “These choices position us to meet the strong demand in our industry and drive widespread adoption.” Since launching NurseMagic a mere five months ago, the company says it has met several milestones, including launching a paid individual subscription, meeting HIPAA compliance requirements for paid enterprise customers and generating revenue in the home care market. The U.S. population is getting older at the same time that there is a shortage of nurses and home healthcare workers available to tend to the aging population. Those who are working are stressed and doing more with less. NurseMagic can fill that gap, presenting nurses, home health care workers and franchises with an AI-driven tool to improve the quality of life for workers and the care for patients, the company argues. It's a win-win, which is why Amesite has been hitting so many milestones in 2024, and expects revenue to ramp up in the new year. Featured photo by Dominik Lange on Unsplash.

Should You Still Buy Dogecoin Over $0.40? Here Are 2 Alternatives Under $1 With More Potential

Cutoshi

At this point, it would be surprising for Dogecoin (DOGE) not to reach $1 and beyond. The meme coin king continues to dominate the space as it cemented itself as a legitimate asset in the broader market. With that being said, there are other altcoins that could surpass Dogecoin in terms of ROI. While Tron (TRX) is an obvious example, a new arrival, Cutoshi (CUTO), could soon take the spotlight. Dogecoin Is Struggling To Breakout After Month-Long Consolidation When Donald Trump won the US presidency in early November, Dogecoin stunned the market with a triple-digit rally that saw its price multiply in the span of a few days. However, shortly after, Dogecoin began stalling as its momentum waned and selling pressure increased. After peaking at $0.47 Dogecoin (DOGE) entered a narrow trading channel with its price fluctuating around the $0.40 mark. On the other hand, whales continue to bolster their Dogecoin position in anticipation of a new rally. Analyst Ali Martinez has shared impressive on-chain numbers on X, highlighting a recent buying spree that saw large wallets spending over $64 million to purchase 160 million DOGE. In regards to Dogecoin’s price action, renowned DOGE bull KrissPax has highlighted a bull flag pattern on the chart. According to Kriss, a breakout above the trendline could propel Dogecoin to $0.69 by the end of the year. If this projection plays out, the prophesied $1 DOGE could become a reality in Q1 2025. Tron Is Retesting Lower Levels After ATH Run Tron (TRX) has been in up-only mode since bottoming out in 2022. In late 2024, Tron entered escape velocity as it tore through major resistance levels with ease and reached a new all-time high for the first time since 2018. However, after tagging the $0.42 peak, Tron’s price started to decline as bears stepped in. At press time, Tron trades at $0.28 following a 6.1% intraday decrease which was accompanied by an 18.8% decline in 24-hour volume, with roughly $1.88 billion worth of TRX traded across exchange platforms. However, analyst Anni Sarahayu points out on X that a Tron is printing a string of higher lows on the 4-hour chart. This teases an incoming breakout which could send Tron soaring to new heights by the end of December. At $24.7 billion, Tron’s market cap is worth less than half of Dogecoin's $60 billion, meaning that investors looking for projects with a proven track record and much greater room for growth could consider adding TRX to their portfolio. However, there could be an even better option. Cutoshi’s Farming Mechanism Is Turning Heads Cutoshi is already making waves with its hybrid framework that merges meme lore with DeFi functionality, creating the first-ever MemeFi ecosystem. The project is centered around CUTO DEX, a cross-chain, fully private, decentralized exchange that could soon give established protocols like Uniswap or Rayidium, a run for their money. Investors will be able to perform lightning-fast transactions on all major blockchains at some of the lowest fees on the market. Japanese Lucky Cats are said to bring prosperity to businesses. Cutoshi brings good fortune to the blockchain. Cutoshi Farming is one of the platform’s most intriguing features. Users will have the opportunity to earn massive prizes while growing their $CUTO portfolio. They will be tasked with completing fun missions aimed at expanding Cutoshi’s online reach. In exchange for their efforts, they will receive CUTO points which can be redeemed for more $CUTO once the token hits the markets. Moreover, a staking option will soon be available as well, allowing holders to put their $CUTO to work and tap into a passive income stream. Stage 4 of the presale is now live and over $1.37 million has been raised so far. $CUTO sells for just $0.031, making this the perfect entry point for early adopters who want to capitalize on this new DeFi-driven meme coin.

A Bullish XRP Flag Emerges As Speculation Heats Up For $5, Floki And Cutoshi Set For Better ROI

Cutoshi

Ripple (XRP) is currently in consolidation mode after a memorable triple-digit rally that saw it scale the crypto ranks with ease. However, it seems that the rally is far from over, as bullish signals have started flashing again on the chart, teasing the next leg up. Meanwhile, amid the meme coin craze, investors have started shifting their attention toward utility-focused memes such as Floki (FLOKI) and Cutoshi (CUTO). Is Ripple Ready To Fly Again? Here’s What Analysts Say Between November and early December, Ripple (XRP) stunned the crypto space with a 400% surge that saw it peak at $2.83, a level unseen since 2018. Predictably, a pullback followed once holders began taking profit, forcing a retest of the $2 floor. At the time of writing, Ripple trades at $2.45 with 1.8% in daily gains and a 16.5% decline in 24-hour volume, with roughly $9.8 billion worth of XRP changing hands on trading platforms. Experts agree that Ripple could be on the verge of a massive breakout. Analyst AllInCrypto confirms this thesis as he draws attention to a bull flag formation on the 4-hour chart. Once Ripple flips the descending trendline, it could enter escape velocity, possibly surpassing $5 by the end of the year. This potential is also reflected by the series of catalysts lining up for Ripple. For starters, regulators have greenlighted the release of the highly anticipated Ripple stablecoin RLUSD. Moreover, financial giants and fund managers, including Greyscale and Wisdomtree, have already submitted their applications for a Spot XRP ETF, which will entice institutional clients to start investing in Ripple at scale. Floki Is Building A Foundation For The Next Moonshot. Right now, Floki (FLOKI) sells for $0.00024 with a 5.5% weekly increase and it has been moving in a narrow channel around this mark for the past month. Floki has yet to attempt a reclaim of the $0.00034 all-time high that was tagged in June, but this could happen at any time, as volume has been on the rise and interest is growing steadily. Analyst CryptoBull has drawn an interesting parallel between Floki’s current price action and the performance of Cardano in 2021. He points out that Floki is closely following Cardano’s previous movements and that its current range could serve as a springboard that could propel Floki to new heights. Moreover, Floki’s long-awaited metaverse game Valhalla is set to launch in early 2025. This coincides with the expected resurgence of the crypto game, which is a narrative that has been missing from the landscape. Cutoshi Is Spearheading The MemeFi Revolution. Cutoshi merges meme vibes and DeFi functionality in a single, innovative platform. With this unique blend, the project wants to redefine meme coins as something more than purely speculative assets. Japanese Lucky Cats are said to bring good luck to businesses, while Cutoshi brings good luck to the blockchain, embodying the values of privacy and decentralization. The cornerstone ideals that drove Satoshi Nakamoto to create Bitcoin. At the center of Cutoshi’s ecosystem is CUTO DEX, a decentralized exchange that will allow for near-instantaneous transactions across multiple blockchains for just 0.25% in fees. Users can also participate in the Cuto Farming initiative and complete various missions and tasks aimed at boosting Cutoshi’s presence on social media. For their loyalty, they will receive CUTO points that can be redeemed for $CUTO tokens once the presale wraps up. Stage 4 of the presale is now underway and so far, over $1.37 million has been raised. Tokens are on sale for just $0.031, a perfect entry point for early adopters, as the price is expected to soar much higher in the upcoming months.

Educating The Next Wave Of Crypto Enthusiasts, Will The Rest Of The World Adopt Crypto?

Cutoshi

As crypto surges in yet another four-year bull run cycle, mass adoption of crypto is still quite low. Here we examine the current state of affairs and look to the future of blockchain and what will drive the next wave of crypto. One coin in particular, Cutoshi, is gaining traction in the DeFi market. Who Is Adopting Crypto And Where? According to data from Triple A, around 6.8% of the world is using or trading crypto. But which countries have the highest adoption? With the size of the US economy and the recent pro-crypto US election win, it would be easy to assume that the US is the world leader. But as Chainalysis reports, Central & Southern Asia and Oceania are leading the way with crypto adoption. They use an interesting set of methodologies that help to even out the currency differences that might obscure the real adoption rate. But even without these advanced methods, we see a report conducted in September, India is in the lead, with a huge 29% adoption rate. Nigeria is next with 25%, closely followed by Vietnam and then Australia. In contrast, the US comes in at 13% and Germany at 6%. Image from BuyBitcoinWorldwide.com Men are 2.8 times as likely to own crypto as women and younger people are more likely to have crypto. Are These the Real Stats? It’s unclear how the adoption of the crypto Spot ETFs affects this data, since asset managers like BlackRock are now the biggest holders of Bitcoin. These asset managers tend to provide for large institutions, high net worth individuals and pension funds. Because of that, many ordinary people who haven’t yet gotten into crypto may actually have indirect exposure and will not be represented by the stats above. Given the rapidly aging workforce, lower birth rates and growing longevity of the Global North, it's likely that pension funds will continue to increase their exposure to the high yields of Bitcoin and other cryptos. What’s Going To Happen In The Near Future? The pro-crypto Trump administration is likely to greatly boost crypto adoption in the US and beyond, signaling to the world that cryptocurrencies are a legitimate investment vehicle. This comes as the Federal Reserve officially recognized Bitcoin as ‘Digital Gold’, seeing it not as competition for the dollar, but rather as competition for gold. The Role Of Education We can see mass adoption of education, as more than 68% of Americans say they don’t understand how it works and 37% of current crypto investors also feel confused. The crypto industry is aware of this and there are many places offering crypto education such as the Polkadot Academy. However, for many, Polkadot Academy is still too technical. Since meme coins continue to be extremely popular, especially with those new to crypto, this is one way to bring people into the fold. The Lucky Cat Offers A Way Into Crypto Cutoshi is a meme coin based on the Chinese Lucky Cat, with cute and nostalgic 8-bit graphics, reminding people of computer games from their childhood or a retro vibe. But underneath the hood, Cutoshi is building a DeFi ecosystem. There will be a cross-chain DEX to make things less confusing, easier and cheaper for newbies and even seasoned investors. There will also be a Cutoshi Learning Academy, in the same 8-bit style. Making learning about crypto and decentralized finance appealing and entertaining, as well as educational. As Cutoshi is currently in presale it also offers people a potentially good opportunity for high returns. After the presale, Cutoshi will continue to bring more people to crypto, building an engaging community to increase a sense of inclusiveness. Continually refining their educational approach, so that they can introduce more of the world to crypto.

Best Cryptocurrencies To Replace Solana In Your Portfolio For Bigger ROI

Cutoshi

After verging on the brink of collapse in 2022, Solana has seen a strong recovery. Ecosystem upgrades and the meme coin frenzy have proven that Solana is more resilient than it seems. Despite this, cracks are starting to appear in the Solana network. Ongoing concerns with centralization, as well as controversies around the Solana-based Pump.fun meme coin platform, are putting Solana’s potential into question. For traders that are concerned, Ethereum, Tron and a new memeFi token, Cutoshi, are potential alternatives. Ethereum’s Dominance Remains Unchallenged When it first became prominent, Solana dubbed itself the “Ethereum killer,” touting its high speed and low fees. However, since then, Ethereum (ETH) has managed to retain its dominance. Despite a relatively slow cycle for the biggest DeFi network, there are no signs of anyone overtaking it. Despite retaining dominance in DeFi, with over 50% of TVL of all chains, Ethereum has seen slow growth in price. Last year saw Ethereum underperforming, right up to the latest bull market. Now, Ethereum has recovered its losses, trading at $3,937, with an 80% yearly gain. The underperformance was due to falling fee revenue, which impacted Ethereum’s burn rate. It turns out that layer 2 scaling solutions cannibalized fee revenue on the mainnet. However, this necessary sacrifice of short-term profits is key for Ethereum’s long-term growth. Layer 2 solutions aim to fix the long running issue with Ethereum, its fees and scalability. If the network manages to fix those issues, it will seriously hurt Solana’s competitive edge. At the same time, Ethereum has other advantages compared to Solana. Notably, it has shown consistent reliability, with virtually no downtime since its launch. Moreover, the chain is much bigger and much more decentralized. Tron Is Challenging Solana’s DeFi Ecosystem Solana has always positioned itself as a high-performance chain with a strong ecosystem. In this field, it has a major competitor, Tron (TRX). Its strong DeFi ecosystem, high transaction volumes and recent performance challenge Solana. Tron has retained its position as one of the largest DeFi ecosystems. Currently at $8.495 billion TVL, it holds third place, just behind Solana with $9.432 billion. What is more, its DeFi position has brought Tron to its all-time high of $0.4407 in early December. Source: CMC What is more, unlike Solana, Tron is Ethereum Virtual Machine (EMV) compatible. This opens up its ecosystem to better integration with Ethereum’s DeFi ecosystem. Viral MemeFi Token Cutshi Secures $1.37 M In Investments With Solana’s ecosystem slowing down, another token, Cutoshi (CUTO) is taking the spotlight. This memeFi token is leveraging Ethereum’s ecosystem’s security to challenge Solana’s decentralized exchanges. At the same time, it is an alternative to Solana memecoins. Cutoshi attained viral status after breaking $1.37 million in investments. The reason for this is its blend of memes and decentralization. Cutoshi is using memes to bring more people into the DeFi space. Its multichain DEX aims to make trading accessible on all chains. However, it still leverages Ethereum's security, challenging Solana. The token’s focus on making DeFi more accessible also presents a challenge to SOL.

Time To Buy Cardano? Big Whales Turn Bullish On ADA And Two Other Altcoins

Cutoshi

Cardano (ADA) and Sui (SUI) have both experienced impressive rallies over the past month and have quickly become some of the hottest Layer 1 platforms in the space. Cutoshi (CUTO) also continues to tear through milestones as its viral presale has attracted thousands of investors rushing to secure an allocation. Let’s dive deeper into each of these projects and see how they compare in terms of ROI. Accumulation Continues For Cardano As Crucial Update Is Unveiled Cardano (ADA) has entered a cool-off phase after peaking at $1.30 in early December. After a retest of the $0.92 support during the market-wide flash crash, Cardano rebounded and settled around the $1.12 mark. Meanwhile, whales continue to accumulate preposterous amounts of ADA in anticipation of the next leg up. Analyst Ali Martinez has shared some on-chain insights, showing that over the last few days, large wallets have scooped up over $80 million worth of Cardano. It’s never a bad idea to follow the money, especially when the bull run is just starting to ramp up. Many experts believe that Cardano is on the verge of a breakout and Cantonese Cat has shared an intriguing chart reading that shows the next milestones for ADA. With a combination of Fibonacci Levels and Gann Fan analysis, he pinpoints several crucial levels, with a possible top between $6 and $8 at the peak of the cycle. On the technical front, Cardano continues to make strides, as the upgrade for the Daedalus wallet was launched today. Daedalus v7.0.0 will introduce several bug fixes and optimization, an improved interface, and enhanced governance options Sui Clears New All-Time High, But It’s Not Done Yet Sui (SUI) continues to rise undeterred, as it showed remarkable resilience during the previous days’ downturn. After sweeping the lows, Sui rallied once again and reached a new all-time high of $4.88. to a new peak. Currently, Sui trades at $4.78 with a 4.4% intraday increase, bringing its monthly gains to a noteworthy 44%. This Sui surge has been catalyzed by a series of bullish announcements, which have also led to a new peak in DEX volume, surpassing $466 million and $1.8 billion in Total Value Locked (TVL). Recently, Sui started a partnership with Ant Digital Technologies to tokenize ESG-backed real-world assets. The goal is to integrate these assets within Sui’s blockchain ecosystem and expand access for institutional investors across the globe. Why Cutoshi Could Surprise Everyone In 2025 Cutoshi is already making waves in the meme coin space with its unique ecosystem that leverages DeFi utility, providing a 360-degree cross-chain experience to users who are tired of switching between single-chain protocols when trading across multiple blockchains. CUTO DEX is Cutoshi’s flagship feature. This is a non-custodial decentralized exchange that removes the middlemen from the equation and allows users to have exclusive control over their funds. This approach distances Cutoshi from the framework of centralized exchanges championing the ideals of privacy and decentralization, echoing the teachings of Bitcoin creator Satoshi Nakamoto. Moreover, via the Cutoshi Farming initiative investors will have the opportunity to earn income by participating in special events and completing fun missions. The goal of these missions is to raise awareness about the project and expand its reach on social media. In exchange, users will receive Cuto points that can be later redeemed for $CUTO tokens post-presale In stage 4 of the $CUTO presale, tokens sell for just $0.031, meaning that there has never been a better time to get involved, as the next price surge could happen sooner than expected.

Trending MemeFi Token Attracts Crypto Investors Alongside Increased Trading Volume With Cardano And Ethereum

Cutoshi

Fresh capital is flooding into Ethereum (ETH) and Cardano (ADA) as they both tease incoming breakouts that could see them reclaim crucial resistance levels. Cutoshi, a new meme coin, is taking the market by storm with its unique premise that merges meme energy with DeFi utility. Over $1.3 million has been raised in the ongoing presale of the $CUTO token and demand is skyrocketing. Ethereum Soaring Above $4,000 After consolidating for weeks around the $3,500 mark, Ethereum (ETH) is now trading at $4,020.2, following an 8.5% weekly surge. As Ethereum is cooling off after the move, volume has dipped by 19.5%, with roughly $52.5 billion worth of ETH traded on exchanges in the last 24 hours. Meanwhile, Ethereum inflows are rapidly increasing. On Thursday, BlackRock’s ETH ETF (ETHA) recorded an all-time high of $292 million in daily inflows, highlighting growing investor interest in Ethereum-related investment products. Trader and analyst Pentoshi has shared a bullish chart reading on X in regards to Ethereum’s price action. On the macro level, Ethereum has already tapped into the supply zone at $4000 several times already. Between the ETF craze and the galvanized sentiment in the crypto markets, Ethereum’s reclaim of the $4,800 resistance could happen at any time. Cardano Enters Reaccumulation Zone Over the last month alone, Cardano experienced a 235% rally, becoming one of the best-performing cryptos. This latest surge saw Cardano triumphantly reenter the crypto top 10 with $41.7 billion in market cap. After peaking at $1.30 just a few days ago, Cardano (ADA) has retraced and is currently moving in a ranging channel, with its price fluctuating around the $1.19 mark. In the last 24 hours, Cardano experienced a 1.7% decrease while rebounding from the $1.14 support. Analyst Ali Martinez points out that Cardano has broken out of an ascending triangle pattern. This means that a rebound from this level would confirm the bullish thesis for Cardano and send it soaring to new heights. Both Ethereum and Cardano will undoubtedly experience significant gains, with Ethereum possibly reaching the prophesied $10,000 milestone. However, it's unlikely for both projects to experience the same price multipliers of the past. Crypto-enthusiasts looking for greater ROI should consider looking into low-cap, undervalued projects like Cutoshi, especially with the meme narrative dominating the market. Cutoshi Spearheading The Meme Revolution 2.0 Cutoshi sets itself apart from run-of-the-mill meme coins by leveraging the limitless potential of DeFi. The ecosystem brings disconnected blockchains together into one decentralized exchange, CUTO DEX. Investors can seamlessly swap between assets at near-instantaneous speed without having to circle between exchanges. Just like the Japanese Lucky Cat brings good fortune to businesses, Cutoshi brings good fortune to its community through the Cutoshi Farm system. Once staking is available, holders of the $CUTO token will receive recurring rewards sustained by the revenue generated by the platform. Moreover, during and after the presale, individuals will have the opportunity to participate in special events and complete tasks to earn additional $CUTO tokens. One of the project’s most interesting features is the Cutoshi Academy. This is a learning platform that aims to assist newcomers on their crypto journey. In the academy, they will find free resources that teach the basics of DeFi, trading and how to build a future-proof portfolio. Stage 4 of the $CUTO presale is live and with the token selling for just $0.031, taking into account all that Cutoshi has to offer it has the potential to 10x.

Cutoshi (CUTO) Has Completed Stage 3 Of Presale Ahead Of Schedule, Here's Everything You Need To Know

Cutoshi

As a crypto meme coin trader, one of the most infuriating things about meme coins is that usually by the time you’ve heard of them, it's already too late as the price has pumped so much. Cutoshi is still in presale, meaning that potential buyers still have time to get on board. If you’re still wondering what the fuss is about, here’s what you need to know before it’s too late. Where Is Cutoshi At? Stage 3 of the presale has just finished and stage 4 is underway. This happened a lot earlier than expected, putting the price of $CUTO at $0.031. This puts holders from the start at a rewarding 100% profit. Since there are many more stages to go and lots of community support, there is a lot of room for price appreciation. The project has already raised over $1.29 million and interest is continuing to grow. Why Did Stage 3 Finish So Quickly? The early completion of Stage 3 wasn’t a fluke but rather a result of growing interest in what Cutoshi has to offer. Putting aside its unique hybrid utility as a meme coin that meets DeFi, what factors led to Stage 3 ending so quickly? Memetic Power The internet runs on memes, particularly in crypto, where the majority of the buyers are late millennials or younger, people who’ve mostly grown up with internet memes being ubiquitous. This trend continues as we move into web3 users, as this report says, “the average Web3 user is 30 years old” and “users between the ages of 25 and 34 make up more than 45% of Web3 platform users.” Cutoshi’s Lucky Cat mascot has managed to cut through the usual crowd of frogs and dogs dominating meme coins. It’s simple, recognizable and perfect for memes. You’ve probably seen it pop up on X recently in everything from animated GIFs to hand-drawn fan art and pictures painted in a graffiti style. Trending On X During Thanksgiving The report also mentions how the largest number of web3 users are from the US. And that makes sense when we know that $CUTO has been trending on X three times recently, once right before Thanksgiving. And that helps us to understand why $CUTO saw a spike in activity around Thanksgiving, with the younger members of the family eating Turkey and spilling the tea - attracting hundreds of thousands of dollars of investment on that day. FOMO In Action For those who decided to take a crypto-free day and then check in on Cutoshi, they were amazed to see that stage 3 was selling out, taking the coin to a 100% profit from the beginning of the presale. We’ve all experienced FOMO and so many people, rather than buy Bitcoin at the ultimate top (hey, it might work but there are better strategies), decided to get into a promising presale that they know still has many rounds to go before it is even ready to enter the final stages of price discovery - such as listing on a DEX and beyond. Cutoshi’s Fundamentals Underpin Everything Unlike a conventional meme coin, Cutoshi is based on a solid idea - bringing DeFi to the masses. Their plan for this consists of a cross-chain DEX, designed to offer lower fees and make bridging between blockchains easier for users. Another major feature is the NFT collection, which will include exclusive Lucky Cat-themed collectibles tied to the project’s branding. And people can pay in CUTO, adding further utility to the token. Cutoshi is also proud of their upcoming learning academy, which will be fun and beautiful (in an old-school computer game kind of way) and encourage so many more people to get into web3 and DeFi and how to make the most of it!
