$HOFV a possible NFT play in the future?A former SPAC associated with the NFL is spiking on traders calling it a possible NFT play in the future. is being circulated as a possible NFT play for investors. The company has a working relationship with the NFL in several areas and one Twitter account called the company the next NFT target play. “Check this news the angle stands out clear as day,” the tweet read. An article from NBC Sports was shared as part of the tweet that said the NFL is working on an NFT strategy. The NFL has told teams they shouldn’t make their own NFT deals without checking with the league first. The article did not mention any names or call out Hall of Fame Resort & Entertainment. “We are aware of the NFTs and working to understand them better,” a Hall of Fame Resorts spokesperson told Benzinga Friday. NFTs, or non-fungible tokens, are a hot topic in 2021 and investors are looking for companies with exposure to the growing market. The NFL could be looking to replicate the success of NBA Top Shot with its own NFT platform. Hall of Fame Resorts is a partner with the NFL but does not have experience in the blockchain market. “We know that we have incredible content and are always looking at different ways to monetize our assets,” the Hall of Fame Resorts spokesperson told Benzinga. Hall of Fame Resorts has a working relationship with the NFL. At this point, the company has no entry in the NFT market, so the rise in shares is based on speculation of a possible partnership. www.benzinga.com

$ZKIN Eneters Non-Fungible-Token Market Projected at $1.3 BZK International's Subsidiary, xSigma Eneters Non-Fungible-Token Market Projected at $1.3 billion in 2021 as it Announces the Launch of its "NFT" Platform on Ethereum and Polkadot Blockchains The new platform being developed by the developing team at xSigma labs will be an NFT marketplace, which will allow users in the community to buy and sell NFTs, as well as to create their own custom NFTs in a few clicks. xSigma plans to use multiple blockchains behind the platform, such as Ethereum and Polkadot. xSigma plans to attract various artists and talents on an exclusive basis to its platform. Previously, xSigma was able to attract NBA Champion Dwight Howard, to endorse its DeFi project and it hopes that the new marketplace will be able to attract similar celebrities to its new NFT Platform. What are Non-Fungible Tokens? Non-Fungible Tokens are easily exchangeable and individually unique digital assets which are held on certain blockchains , mainly Ethereum but also others such as Flow, Wax, and many others. One of the key differences between Cryptocurrencies and Non-Fungible Tokens is that every NFT is completely and not directly interchangeable with any other asset by identity, value, and/or utility . Every Non-Fungible Token is composed of metadata which gives each one their individuality, these attributes can include size, artist name, scarcity etc. NFT not only exist in a digital space but crucially they can also represent any type of physical asset, acting as a kind of 'digital twin' to anything existing in the real world and enabling the ownership and exchange of physical possessions within digital marketplaces. the total market cap for project-based NFTs finished was $338 million at the close of 2020. Messari research analyst Mason Nystrom believes this figure could rise to more than $1.3 billion in 2021." The report goes on to indicate, that it is predicting that 2021 is poised for "a new Bull Market in the NFT industry."1 finance.yahoo.com

CAN stock is particularly well-positioned to benefit as a maker of Bitcoin mining machines, presently scarce and in high demand. Last week, Canaan announced “improved revenue visibility” for 2021 after receiving orders for 100,000 mining machines in North America, many of which were prepaid. Canaan Creative is just the latest beneficiary of the recent rush into cryptocurrencies.

CPST Could Be A Big Winner...*** THIS IS NOT FINANCIAL OR INVESTMENT ADVICE *** DYOR and don't take my word for anything. Capstone Turbine Corporation has a lot of potential to make big upward moves. I believe this based on technical analysis as well as some aggregated fundamental analysis. The Biden administration will necessarily be favorable towards green localized electrical production. It could be expected that the replacement of localized power sources running on diesel will be incentivized via replacement by systems such as those produced by CPST. The company has made big investments in a market that hasn't fully emerged. There's no way electric vehicles emerge as the only solution for long-haul trucking and supply chain distribution. Hybrid mechanical-electric systems will be needed to make electrically driven big rigs feasible. If the price of gas/oil stays relatively high and/or doesn't fall off, you could expect the CPST business flow to increase as a function of supporting this shift in transportation. They are very transparent about their critical financial position at the moment. No surprises if the above doesn't happen and they don't make it. Watch the critical zone and be careful if it turns. Happy Trading!

Crypto Total Market Downtrend Reversal*** THIS IS NOT FINANCIAL OR INVESTMENT ADVICE *** DYOR and don't take my word for anything. The overall crypto market downtrend is reversing. The last market cycle started when Elon Musk announced an over $1.5BB investment into BTC as part of an upcoming strategy at Tesla to start accepting BTC as payment. The upward trend reversed when interest rates climbed and cryptocurrencies hit ATHs. The money moved from tech stocks and crypto as profits were taken. It appears the market has bottomed out and is turning. Buy the dip and hodl bitches.

H.C. Wainwright boosted price target from $24 to $50 Bitcoin believers are reaping the rewards and H.C. Wainwright analyst Amit Dayal thinks the surge merits a rethink for his CleanSpark (CLSK) model. The analyst boosted his price target from $24 to $50, suggesting upside of 72% from current levels. Accordingly, Dayal’s rating stays a Buy. The reason for the new bullish target is easy to explain. The microgrid software specialist has been growing its Bitcoin mining capacity and with the rising Bitcoin price, CleanSpark will be raking in additional revenue. However, the problem with trying to estimate projected revenues for any company involved in Bitcoin related endeavors is extremely difficult due to the constantly moving goalposts, especially when looking several years ahead. The Bitcoin contribution to CleanSpark’s balance sheet is set to increase. The March quarter will see a full quarter of Bitcoin input, with production bringing in between 1.5 to 2 bitcoins per day as the hash rate has increased from 200 PH/s in December to over 315 PH/s in February. By early 2H21, the company expects to have an extra 800 to 880 PH/s of processing capacity which should grow the total Bitcoin mining capacity to between 1.0 and 1.3 EH/s. finance.yahoo.com
