š„ Whatās buzzinā in marketing?
Twitter. Is still suffering from Elon Muskās chaotic management. If you didnāt see this meme, it means you were not on Twitter last Monday. After his Super Bowl tweet had less impressions than President Bidenās, Twitterās CEO forced 80 people to work on the late Sunday project, which had quickly become priority number one at the company. The results is an algorithm that artificially boosts Muskās tweets to ensure his tweets get more visibility than anyone elseās in the feed. Musk denies and says they fixed a bug that had caused replies to have the same prominence as primary Tweets. He also mentioned that the new Twitter CEO would be introduced by the end of 2023.
Netflix. Thought people needed help in choosing something to watch from thousands of titles. Therefore, the āSurprise Meā button was introduced in 2021. Apparently, users were not quite tired. The company discontinued the feature last month due to relatively low use influenced by the fact that users tend to come to the service with a specific show, movie or genre in mind. Streaming platforms are on the constant lookout for differentiating factors in the offered user experience, so new features will certainly come.
TikTok. Puts your knowledge to the test with TikTok Trivia. The activation will be live for 5 days beginning on February 22nd and will give users chance to win money while promoting the newsest Lionsgateās title, āJohn Wick Chapter 4ā. Is it cool? We think so. But more importantly, TikTok hopes to boost in-app interaction, increase the time spent on TikTok, and attract brands with a new sponsored promotion option.

We all know the FTXās collapse has not helped crypto in the bear market. While the token prices have plummeted and a few investors have run away, some players in the digital-asset industry have spotted artificial intelligence as a lifeline in the ongoing tech craze. No doubts that OpenAIās DALL-E and ChatGPT contributed profoundly.
Where is hype, there is hope. A new tech wave might translate AI and web3 into something bigger. While people are still figuring out the best use cases for blockchain, companies like Futureverse see the future clear. And not them only. Crypto Tony believes that AI will be the big catalyst for the next crypto bull run. He prepared a list of top 5 AI-backed blockchain projects, such as Fetch.ai or GRT.
ā³ļø Do you think that AI and blockchain will blend into each other in the future?
While the death tolls after devastating earthquakes in TĆ¼rkiye and Syria are still on the rise (+44,000 people), many organizations rush for help and financial aid. Ripple, the leading fintech company, will provide $1 million in XRP to help the victims. The company also set up a donation fund on the Crypto for Charity platform and promised to double all crypto donations up to $750,000.
Among many others, Vitalik Buterin has sent around $227k in ETH to two Turkish earthquake relief organizations. One of the relief organizations, Anka Relief, provided aĀ list of crypto wallets for donations.
š¤¹āāļø Bankman-Fried manipulated witnesses?
Never a dull moment in the FTX fiasco! Recently, the Judge has prohibited SBF from using certain messaging apps and temporarily from using VPN. The prosecutors proposed cutting him off from cellphones, tablets, computers, or the internet, except for very limited trial-related use cases.
Yesterday, Judge Lewis Kaplan said there was āprobable cause to believe that he (SBF) has committed or attempted to commit a federal felony while on release, namely witness tamperingā. If so, this might lead to the ($250 million worth) bail revocation, which would put SBF back into jail until his trial in October. The question is, why the bail has not been revoked yet?
