New York, New York, United States, 9th Dec 2022 – EXEVerse Labs, an Asia-based NFT company has secured $7.5 million in funding from Berkwood Capital to accelerate the growth of its metaverse & Web3 products.

• EXEVerse Labs raised $7.5 million from Berkwood Capital’s $50M “NFT Future Fund”
• The Web3 company will accelerate development on its anime-inspired, mobile gaming franchise
• EXEVerse Labs is set to mint its main NFT Collection EXEVerse Genesis on 21 December 2022

The investment will strengthen development and allow EXEVerse to expand its team and accelerate the launch of its suite of mobile games and manga while maintaining the high quality standard that has defined the company.

Founded in November 2021, EXEVerse Labs has successfully launched several NFT products in 2022, including EXEVerse.Shop, EXE Radiance NFT Collection, EXE Collectibles NFT Collection and released the first chapter of its Manga.

EXEVerse sets itself apart in the metaverse space by building and developing products that cater to both the general public as well as the blockchain community. By having a consumer-first mindset rather than a blockchain-first focus, EXEVerse is confident to capture the attention of the general public and lead them into the metaverse gradually. 

By employing a unique Freemium model in its games, players will be able to enjoy the games traditionally but will be able to unlock more immersive and exciting gaming experiences by engaging with NFTs.

EXEVerse is also set to begin monthly serialisation on a manga written by established writer-director Logan Mitev and produced by a professional art studio Huang Long Studios. The manga will introduce the public to the EXEVerse universe of unique characters and exciting stories. The first chapter was released in early December and received overwhelmingly positive response and reviews from the community.

Prior to the funding round, EXEVerse has successfully launched a online merchandise store EXEVerse.Shop and a NFT collection EXE Radiance that introduces unique shopping experiences at the store. EXEVerse Labs’s future plans include launching several NFT collections that each complement a pillar of their products – Manga, Mobile Games & Merchandise.

“I am honoured and proud that EXEVerse is officially the first NFT project that we have funded from our “NFT Future Fund”. After months of talking to various founders and projects, we have selected EXEVerse due to their resilience, diligence and experience in the space. The ambitious plans which EXEVerse have laid out to date alongside their stated goals will no doubt blaze a new path in the metaverse. This first round of funding will not only enable the team to achieve their goals faster but allow them to maintain the high quality expected from their fans and players,” said James Lambert, Berkwood Capital’s Media Manager.

Berkwood Capital will also be providing support in terms of marketing, financing, networking and collaboration with other partners within the space.

“We are very excited to be working with Berkwood Capital to bring our vision to life. We are confident in the future of blockchain and NFTs and cannot wait to present to the world our vision.” said Blake Tan, the Creative Director of EXEVerse.

EXEVerse is set to launch their main NFT Collection EXE Genesis on the 21st of December 2022. EXE Genesis is a NFT collection that allows its holders to receive a reward-sharing ownership in the whole suite of EXEVerse Labs products.

A recent study by Bridges Consultancy has revealed that 7-out-of-10 people are still at the lowest level of digital maturity, a factor that explains why two-thirds of digital transformations are failing.The Digital Maturity Index Report 2022, an analytical report which identifies an individual’s digital maturity, has shown that the majority of respondents are still coming to terms with understanding digital technologies and methodologies, with 71 percent scoring at the lowest level of the Digital Maturity Index (DMI).

Singapore, 9th Dec 2022 – A recent study by Bridges Consultancy has revealed that 7-out-of-10 people are still at the lowest level of digital maturity, a factor that explains why two-thirds of digital transformations are failing.

The Digital Maturity Index Report 2022, an analytical report which identifies an individual’s digital maturity, has shown that the majority of respondents are still coming to terms with understanding digital technologies and methodologies, with 71 percent scoring at the lowest level of the Digital Maturity Index (DMI).

The DMI captures an individual’s (not organization’s) current level of readiness to take advantage of opportunities and create value through digital. The index rates respondents at one of three levels: Reacting (basic), Embedding (intermediate) and Strategizing (advanced).

As one of the world’s few indexes that measure an individual’s digital maturity, the DMI offers a reliable starting point for identifying individual digital gaps. To ensure reliability, the team utilised the Cronbach’s Alpha scale[1] to test for internal consistency and received a strong score of .94. The DMI also had a test-retest reliability coefficient of .93, further indicating the instrument’s excellent reliability.

What the DMI revealed most significantly is that the majority of respondents are at the ‘Reacting’ level, which is the most basic level of digital maturity. At this level, individuals may still be learning the vocabulary, technologies, and methodologies pertinent to digital transformation.

This implies that people increasingly have the knowledge but not the skills for digital transformation and are not yet prepared to implement the digital technologies and methodologies needed in business today, a fact that could have a critical impact on how those businesses perform.

Asides from measuring what individuals know about digital transformation, the DMI also measures what they are capable of doing. The report revealed that most respondents are most capable with smartphone apps, showing an ability to effectively utilise dashboards, create digital visualisations and employ design thinking.

At the other end of the spectrum, the skill with the lowest score was digital nudging, which is an approach that uses digital means to encourage behavioural change. According to the results of the DMI, 52.2 percent of respondents showed a limited understanding while only 2.6 percent showed advanced knowledge.

“People are getting better at picking up the necessary knowledge, but they haven’t yet acquired the applied skills they need to unlock that knowledge and properly implement it,” states Professor Michael Netzley, Co-Author of the DMI Report 2022. “Individuals are struggling to move from acquiring the knowledge to actually embedding it into practice.”

This significant gap between knowledge and implementation is one of the most critical factors revealed by the DMI results and is referred to in the report as the ‘Digital Knowing-Doing Gap’. This gap indicates that individuals, and as a result, organizations, will continue struggling to move from adapting to embedding digital transformation unless they acquire the skills that will allow them to unleash the full value of their knowledge.

“One of the main reasons behind creating the DMI was to allow individuals to prudently plan a path forward, identify their development needs and take the necessary actions to improve their digital maturity,” says Robin Speculand, Co-Author of the DMI Report 2022. “Going through the DMI will allow them to measure and analyse their results, identify what actions need to be taken and then develop a plan that plots a course towards a successful implementation.” 

By completing the Digital Maturity Index and establishing a baseline, individuals can now make informed decisions to map a path forward, identifying their development needs and taking the appropriate actions to improve their digital maturity.

San Jose, CA, United States, 8th Dec 2022 — FlyFin, the world’s number one AI-based tax preparation and tax filing service, introduced a list of tax hacks to help self-employed people save on their taxes. FlyFin’s new resources offer a variety of ways to reduce taxable income and directly lower the amount of tax owed. The new resources cover a variety of topics, including strategies for responsibly paying taxes, highlighting potential penalties and deductible expenses that may not be on the radar for many taxpayers. 

In particular, the American Rescue Plan Act of 2021 resulted in a new IRS rule requiring a $600 threshold on payment apps such as Venmo, Zelle, Cash App, etc. In response to this new tax law, FlyFin’s new resources aim to simplify the tax filing process around the new tax filing rule. According to the SBA, there are approximately 30 million small businesses, freelancers, solo-preneurs and independent contractors in the US as of 2019. The new tax rule will affect this collective group for the 2022 tax year in the following ways: 

• Freelancers and gig workers will be required to report any payments of $600 or more made through payment apps, regardless of the number of transactions, as income on their tax returns. 
• Small business owners will be required to issue Form 1099-K for payments of $600 or more made through payment apps, regardless of the number of transactions. A 1099-K form must be filed with the IRS by January 31 of the following year. 
• Freelancers and gig workers will be required to pay self-employment taxes on any payments of $600 or more made through payment apps, regardless of the number of transactions. 
• Small business owners may be penalized for failing to issue Form 1099-K for payments of $600 or more made through payment apps, regardless of the number of transactions.

“We understand that navigating the world of taxes can be very challenging, especially for self-employed individuals. That’s why we’re excited to offer these new tips and strategies to help our customers save on their taxes in a tax environment that’s always changing, so that they can meet their tax obligations with as much tax savings as possible. FlyFin’s goal is to give our customers all the knowledge and tools they need to make the most informed decisions about their taxes. We’re constantly updating our resources to ensure that our customers have access to the latest information and strategies,” said Jaideep Singh, Co-founder and CEO of FlyFin.

Chicago, Illinois, United States, 8th Dec 2022 – Since 2017, Crypto Dispensers has been working to provide customers with safe and convenient ways of purchasing Bitcoin and other digital currencies. 

As early adopters of Bitcoin ATM technology, they have been leading the industry by allowing users to exchange cash into digital currencies like Bitcoin and Ethereum almost instantly across the country. Now, they are excited to announce an easier and even safer way of buying Bitcoin with cash: CDReload.
 

CDReload allows users to fund their accounts with cash at over 16,000 retail locations nationwide. Customers can load their cash to their CDReload account by handing their custom-generated barcode and cash to the person at the register. Once the cash is credited to their account,(which usually takes minutes), users can choose how much Bitcoin they want to buy and designate the wallet they want to send their coins. Customers can “reload” their account with cash at their favorite retail locations once they create a CDReload account and verify their identity. 

Using CDReload is simple and only takes a few simple steps to buy Bitcoin. First-time users with CDReload will receive $25 FREE credited to their balance on their first transaction.

“One of the biggest benefits of using CDReload is that customers own and maintain control of their cryptocurrency from start to finish,” says Firas Isa, Founder and CEO of Crypto Dispensers. Unlike many online exchanges, Crypto Dispensers allows users to deposit the cryptocurrency into their designated crypto wallet. The whole process is seamless and nearly instantaneous. 

About Crypto Dispensers:

Crypto Dispensers is the leading Bitcoin ATM operator and next-generation cryptocurrency exchange in America. Since 2017, Crypto Dispensers has been operating Bitcoin ATMs in premier shopping malls and small business establishments to contribute to the effort of taking cryptocurrency mainstream. Their goal is to ultimately make cryptocurrencies more accessible, allowing everyone a fair chance to engage in the global financial ecosystem and to achieve economic prosperity.

Calgary, AB, Canada, 8th Dec 2022 – As a successful entrepreneur or executive, outsourcing your financial, legal, and tax matters can be a smart way to simplify your life and focus on your career and family. However, it’s important to do it successfully in order to get the maximum benefits. Ethan Quirin, Founder of Financial Dogma shares three tips to help you outsource these tasks effectively:

Choose the right firm. When it comes to outsourcing your financial, legal, and tax matters, it’s crucial to choose a reputable firm that has experience in all of these areas. Look for a firm that has a team of experienced professionals, who can provide personalized advice and guidance to help you make the best decisions for your situation. It’s also a good idea to check out reviews and ask for references before making a decision.

Communicate clearly. To ensure that your financial, legal, and tax matters are handled effectively, it’s important to communicate clearly with the firm you’re working with. Make sure to provide them with all of the necessary information, and be available to answer any questions they may have. This will help them provide the best possible service and advice. It’s also a good idea to establish clear lines of communication and a system for staying in touch, so that you can stay informed about the progress of your financial and legal affairs.

Review and update regularly. Outsourcing your financial, legal, and tax matters is not a one-time event. To ensure that your affairs are being handled properly, it’s important to review and update your plan regularly. This will allow you to make any necessary changes and ensure that your affairs are in order. It’s also a good idea to schedule regular meetings with the firm you’re working with, so that you can review your financial and legal situation and make any necessary changes.

In addition to the benefits of outsourcing your financial, legal, and tax matters, there are also some potential challenges to consider. For example, some executives may find it difficult to let go of certain tasks and trust someone else to handle them. It’s important to overcome this challenge and trust the professionals you’re working with, so that you can fully enjoy the benefits of outsourcing.

Another potential challenge is the cost of outsourcing these services. While outsourcing can save you time and energy, and help you make better financial decisions, it can also be expensive. It’s important to carefully consider the costs and benefits, and make sure that outsourcing is the right decision for your situation.

Overall, outsourcing your financial, legal, and tax matters can be a great way to simplify your life and focus on your career and your loved ones. By following the tips above and working with a reputable firm, you can enjoy the benefits of outsourcing while overcoming any challenges that may arise.
