Holiday Season Retail Sales Forecasts Are Down – Yoshitsu Could Be Well Placed To Make The Most Of Potentially More Robust Wholesale Trends As Demand Is Pulled Forward

Benzinga

Consumer behavior has changed in many ways since the COVID-19 pandemic hit the world in 2020. One of the key changes was in the way people did their shopping. Most people had to work from home at the time and due to the stay-at-home orders and multiple lockdowns, consumers looked for avenues to shop online and avoid indoor venues like shopping malls and restaurants. E-commerce witnessed an all-time peak in 2020 increasing by $244.2 billion or 43%, rising from $571.2 billion in 2019 to $815.4 billion in 2020. Two years on, these consumer behavior changes continue to be evidenced and e-commerce seems to be here to stay with many brands pivoting their business strategies to include e-commerce in a more significant way to remain competitive. Even with e-commerce, the holiday season is usually the perfect time for a boost in sales, when holiday discounts, gift-giving, festivities, parties and social pressures create a massive influx of consumer spending. Holiday Ecommerce Sales Growth In 2022 Could Likely Drop Below Pre-Pandemic Levels Although the fabulously high levels of e-commerce sales reached during the pandemic and its corresponding holiday season may have been something of an exception, typically the U.S. has always seen a double-digit increase in e-commerce growth during the holiday season. During 2021 the increase in retail e-commerce sales dipped to below pre-pandemic levels to 8.6%, seemingly on account of the post-pandemic economic slowdown –- with cash-strapped consumers being hesitant to open their wallets. The downward trend may continue this year, with reports estimating that U.S. consumers will spend even less in the 2022 holiday season. E-commerce sales seem set to grow by an underwhelming 2.5% according to Insider Intelligence. One of the factors affecting this number could be the sales events that e-commerce giants like Amazon and Walmart initiated in October, ahead of the holiday season which have likely pulled demand forward. While the retail e-commerce scenario seems not so encouraging, wholesale e-commerce could continue to thrive regardless of seasonal trends, as the key drivers of the business are quite different for wholesale e-commerce as compared to retail. Wholesale Businesses Might Benefit Greatly From Using Ecommerce Wholesale e-commerce is a business-to-business (B2B) e-commerce model where businesses sell products in bulk at a discounted price to other businesses, instead of selling products individually to consumers – essentially acting as the intermediary between the manufacturer and the distributor or retailer. A significant advantage of e-commerce for wholesale businesses is that they aren't bound by physical location and can reach customers all around the globe via their website, social media and various marketplaces. Moreover, e-commerce makes life much more convenient for wholesalers by enabling them to research options and make their purchases right from their mobile phones while on the move, without having to involve sales. In addition, by using e-commerce platforms, wholesalers can lower or even eliminate unnecessary costs even as they expand their online presence, resulting in improved profitability. Yoshitsu’s Wholesale Businesses Could Help It Sail Through The Holiday Season Tokyo-based Yoshitsu Co. Ltd. (NASDAQ: TKLF), a Japanese retailer and wholesaler of beauty and health products, home goods and food has seemingly benefitted from its mixed model approach of straddling both the wholesale and retail business worlds and selling its products through the use of e-commerce as well as via brick and mortar stores. Yoshitsu has an extensive business network both in Japan and abroad, including over 200 wholesale clients, numerous online stores in China, Korea and Japan, several franchise stores in the United States, Canada, China (Hong Kong) and the United Kingdom, apart from company-operated stores in Japan. The company’s online stores, franchised stores and wholesale operations account for up to 95% of its revenue, which hit $221.51 million in 2021, up from $139.57 million in 2020. The company has been expanding its warehouse operations to support its wholesale businesses and as part of its proposed global expansion in Europe, recently leased its first 2,362-square-foot warehouse in London. Yoshitsu also recently opened a new retail store in China (Hong Kong) as part of the company's long-term plan to expand its presence in China. China reportedly contributed 75% of the company's annual revenue in 2021 and the company was also featured as one of the top five stocks to buy to invest in China in a recently published article on WealthyVC. The health and beauty products market in Japan is expected to grow from $24.6 billion in 2022 to $29.7 billion in 2025. In North America, it is projected to do even better and reach $455.1 billion, and in China it's expected to grow to $137.7 billion during the same time frame. With its growing footprint in all the right markets, and a strong wholesale and retail presence straddling both e-commerce and brick-and-mortar approaches, Yoshitsu could be positioned for growth in the coming years.

It has already achieved significant success with over 1 million in 10 hours after premiere, and within 5 days after the premiere, the viewership on Tia’s YouTube channel exceeds 26 million viewership, breaking the record for C-pop songs. As of now, “Goodbye Princess” garners an overwhelming combined almost 42 million views on YouTube and Weibo, the MV marks Tia’s comeback as a global solo artist and her bold resurgence as she rises above and conquers her past challenges. With “ Goodbye Princess” symbolising Tia’s evolution into a new, empowered and uplifted version of herself as she explores her new world, the global #EmpowerHer campaign aims to reinforce the song’s themes of female empowerment and encourage all women to bravely embrace their true selves, become stronger and build a more promising future. Tia launched the global #EmpowerHer campaign today The Creation of the Global #EmpowerHer Campaign Inspired by her own personal journey and renewed inner strength, Tia launched the #EmpowerHer campaign to rally women and girls worldwide to believe in themselves, say goodbye to stifling obstacles, and stand up taller and stronger in the face of any adversity. Overall, the campaign aims to support and promote the ‘Female Empowers Female’ concept and benefit as many female-centric charitable causes as possible on a global scale to create a greater good for the global female population. The campaign’s selected beneficiaries include Daughters Of Tomorrow in Singapore, Beats By Girlz and Women in Music in the United States, Teen’s Key in Hong Kong, and more. As the #EmpowerHer campaign hits its stride globally, donations will be channelled to these beneficiaries during the campaign period, supporting their operations and goals to build a better future for women. To get the ball rolling in support of these charities, each view of the “ Goodbye Princess ” music video will help to empower women around the world. Every time a viewing benchmark is met a donation will be made to the #EmpowerHer campaign, one of the biggest initiatives to support the empowerment of women worldwide. The #EmpowerHer campaign will split up to a maximum of HKD3.8million (approximately USD$480,000) between the selected charities. Tia chose the figure 3.8 million because of its significance as the date of International Women’s Day, March 8th. “Our goal is for every young woman to have the opportunity to follow the path they envision for herself. In our eyes, success is when young women become independent, confident, and capable of making their own decisions. Tia's journey of resilience inspires not just our girls and young women, but also the world – giving us the confidence to believe that we are all unique and each of us has the potential to create a future filled with more possibilities than we can even imagine. Thank you for such a meaningful initiative! It is a pleasure to be one of the beneficiaries of the #EmpowerHer campaign,” said Rachel Chow, Resource Development Manager, Teen’s Key Hong Kong. "Donations like those from the #EmpowerHer campaign allow Women in Music to educate, empower, and advance women in the music industry. We're delighted to be included alongside other non-profit organisations working to create change," said Nicole Barsalona, President, Women in Music. "Daughters Of Tomorrow'' is delighted to be the benefiting charity for the launch of Tia Lee's "Goodbye Princess" and the #EmpowerHer campaign, which seeks to inspire, uplift and empower women. This resonates with DOT's mission of empowering women through economic means, enabling them to uplift their families,” said Fannie Lim, Executive Director of Daughters Of Tomorrow. “We recognise that every person has their own journeys – milestones to check, circumstances to overcome and aspirations that they wish to live for. Recognising that everyone has dreams of their own, our role is to cheer each one towards creating a better tomorrow for themselves. We wish Tia Lee great success in empowering many more women during this campaign." "Beats By Girlz is delighted to be a part of the #EmpowerHer campaign. We have a shared vision of empowering women and gender minorities through music and are happy to be doing this work in partnership with Tia Lee," said Erin Barra, Executive Director, Beats By Girlz. Rise of the Global #EmpowerHerDance TikTok Dance Challenge Dancers around the world have risen to the challenge of covering the signature choreography to “Goodbye Princess” on the short-form video platform TikTok, featuring energetic yet rhythmic full body movements and a signature ‘goodbye’ hand gesture. The upbeat, unabashedly feminine choreography embodies a revitalisation of Tia’s mind and body after overcoming past challenges in the fashion and entertainment industry, setting her free to express her own strength. Among the earliest dancers and personalities to have joined the dance challenge include globally renowned Australian-Filipino dancer and choreographer, Hannah Balanay, Australia’s most popular creator on TikTok last year. She is best known for her dance to Dua Lipa’s song “Don’t Start Now”, which went viral on the platform. Hannah Balanay initiated #EmpowerHerDance TikTok Dance Challenge The emergence of this dance challenge has birthed the hashtag #EmpowerHerDance, which contains all the videos of the dance covers and further lends strength to the global #EmpowerHer campaign. Tia Lee has championed female empowerment throughout her career and has made it a key focus of the “Goodbye Princess” campaign. Prior to releasing the MV, Tia launched an associated 6-part animation series that told the tale of her journey in the music and entertainment industry through a creative synergy of music, animation, and fashion videography. Her story of bravely overcoming obstacles resonated with many, garnering a viewership of over 100 million within a month and putting the pre-release campaign well on track to become the most successful engagement campaign of all time by a C-Pop artiste. Beyond her music, Tia has also advocated for female empowerment in beauty and fashion. She has joined many A-listers such as Justin Bieber and Alicia Keys on the covers of popular magazines such as Vogue and ROLLACOASTER, and has used these illustrious platforms to spread her message of inner strength and empowerment – as well as to inspire other women with her story, which is built on a strong foundation of persistence, hard work, and self-belief. The “Goodbye Princess” MV and full pre-campaign series with complementing fashion videography can be watched on Tia’s social media channels.

CSGO Case Opening Sites 2023: Best Free Cases and Skin Boxes

Esports Division

If you want to stock up your inventory with new skins, then look no further than the best CSGO case opening sites. As their name suggests, here you can buy boxes, open them, and obtain CSGO skins. You can also gamble with the cases and skins, giving you more opportunities to win legendary skins. You need to choose a good CSGO case opening site to take advantage of generous bonuses, an incredible catalog of cases, and games to win even more skins, all within a safe and audited platform. Choosing it on your own can take too much time, and that’s why we’ve built the following ranking, with the top case opening sites in 2023. The Best 9 CSGO Case Opening Websites We’ve carefully analyzed each one of the sites in this list, to bring you the best possible experience. Because you can win lots of valuable skins at these sites, and at the same time, take advantage of exclusive bonuses and gambling games. Take a look at the best CSGO case opening sites: Farmskins: Best Daily Skin Cases Bonus CSGOLuck: Best Welcome Bonus DaddySkins: Best Site with Upgrader DatDrop: Best Loyalty Program Hellcase: Best Free Money Bonus CSGOFast: Best CSGO Case Games G4Skins: Best New CSGO Case Opening Site KeyDrop: Best Giveaways GGDrop: Best First Deposit Bonus All you have to do is to pick your favorite site, join it, claim your welcome bonus and that’s it. You’ll be ready to open as many CSGO cases as possible. Farmskins: Best Daily Bonus Farmskins is one of the most important cases opening sites in the world because it has tons of available cases and skins, a great cashback program, and a solid upgrader, as well as giveaways and promos for existing users. However, it stands out thanks to their Free Daily Case, which you can claim since you join the site. Even though many sites offer free daily cases, Farmskins does it better. Based on our experience, this site tends to give better drops than the competition, so you stand a higher chance of obtaining more valuable skins instead of cheap ones. The site is also popular due to its great Case Battles, so you can win even more skins. The only issue is that the customer support department could respond faster, but other than that, it’s our favorite CSGO case opening site. CSGOLuck: Best Welcome Bonus CSGOLuck has the best welcome bonus because it will reward you with 5 FREE Cases when you join the site. Because your focus is on opening CSGO cases, then we’re sure that this bonus will be a perfect match for you. CSGOLuck has lots of cases and skins, so you have a lot of options when it comes to opening boxes. You can also win more skins by playing Crash, Roulette, Coinflip, Towers and Mines. The site is easy to use and the games are fun, and alongside with the huge welcome bonus and the other ongoing promotions, CSGOLuck is one of your best options. DaddySkins: Best Site with Upgrader DaddySkins is a solid CS:GO case opening site, and in addition to their great selection of cases and skins, it also offers you an excellent Upgrader that will help you to turn cheap skins into valuable, rare, and legendary ones. We’ve found that the Upgrader on DaddySkins tends to work better than in other sites, so it’s fair to say that you have a slightly bigger chance of succeeding in upgrading your skins. They also have good daily bonuses and great features: Arenas and Gunfights. They both will allow you to win even more skins. DatDrop: Best Loyalty Program DatDrop is one of the most popular sites nowadays, especially because they have an excellent loyalty program divided in 5 levels, which will reward you with free daily cases. The value of the drops will depend on your current level. DatDrop is also popular because of its great Case Battles. Because it has so much liquidity, you can have battles practically at any time of the day. The only issue is that you cannot withdraw skins directly, so that will make your day a bit harder when you want to cash out. Other than that, it’s one of the best sites at the moment. Hellcase: Best Free Money Bonus If you want a free money bonus, look no further than Hellcase. It will bring you over $0.50 in free money, which is more than what the majority of the competition will ever give you. Hellcase also offers you the classic Case Battles, an Upgrader, and a Mixxer, alongside frequent events and bonuses that will help you to win more cases and skins. The only con of Hellcase is that it lacks more games beyond Case Battles, so if you want to venture into skins gambling, you will have a better time at sites like CSGOFast. CSGOFast: Best CSGO Case Games If you’re here to open cases but you also want to wager your skins and cases, then CSGOFast will be ideal for you. On top of being a solid case opening site, it also offers a great selection of skins gambling games such as Crash, Hi-Lo, Slots, Tower, Wheel of Fortune, amongst others. CSGOFast has the best selection of games in this category, because it also offers new titles such as X50, Poggi, and Double Game. This site will also reward you with free money that you can use on all of these games, just by using a promo code. All in all, it’s a solid site that you can join today. G4Skins: Best New CSGO Case Opening Site G4Skins has been around since 2019, making it one of the newest sites in the industry. It’s started to pick up pace thanks to the great platform they’ve managed to build, which brings you benefits such as deposit bonuses, lots of cases and skins, exclusive events, skin gambling games, and more. The site is fairly easy to use, so you can get started right off the bat. The only downside of G4Skins is that they don’t host frequent giveaways or promotions for existing users, so this is something that they can definitely improve. The reason why many people join G4Skins is because of the big variety of skins and cases, as well as the Battles, which bring you more opportunities to win big prizes. KeyDrop: Best Giveaways KeyDrop is one of our favorite CSGO case-opening sites because it hosts the best giveaways in the sector. Just click on “Giveaways” and you’ll find all the active campaigns at the moment, which are several throughout the day. Although they’re not worth thousands of dollars, they are enough to give your account a good boost. The site is easy to navigate and fun to use because they’ve designed it with the goal of providing an excellent UX. Apart from opening cases, you can also play games such as Case Battles and use the Upgrader. The downside of KeyDrop is that it doesn’t offer many games, the only one you can play is Case Battles, and then you have the Upgrader. Pretty limited in this sense, but it’s still the best site when it comes to giveaways. GGDrop: Best First Deposit Bonus If you want to make a first deposit and receive an extra percentage as a bonus, then look no further than GGDrop. This site will reward you with a nice 11% extra on your first deposit, which is far more than what other sites offer, including giants like DatDrop. Most of them limit the bonus to 5% extra. Apart from the bonus, GGDrop hosts a big variety of cases and skins, alongside games like Case Battles and Roulette, promos and bonuses for existing users. The only downside of GGDrop is that it lacks more games beyond Case Battles and Roulette, so this might be a con to consider if you want to do something more besides case opening and a little skins gambling. How to Sign Up on a CSGO Case Unboxing Site If you’ve already picked your favorite CSGO case opening site, it’s time to show you how to join it really fast - here’s the entire process, step by step: Choose a site from our list Sign up or join via Steam Create your account instructed Use your promo code Claim your bonus and start opening cases! As you can see the process is quite easy. It might change a little bit depending on the site, but for the most part, these are the unique steps you will have to follow. Are Third-Party Case Opening Sites Better Than Valve? The sites we recommended are third-party, and hence, they are not owned by Valve. However, are they really better than just buying cases from Valve? Here’s what you need to know. Get cases for cheaper Third-party case opening sites are way cheaper than Valve. Here the prices for the cases are cheaper because you don’t have to buy expensive keys, so it will drive down the costs of your gambling by a significant margin. Obtain more skins In addition to the official cases that you can find at CS:GO, these sites also invent their own cases. For example, you can find knives only cases, which as the name clearly suggests, only contain knife skins. You can find such types of special cases at our recommended sites, so you will get access to even more chances of winning valuable skins. Take part in exciting games. Many of our recommended sites also offer different CSGO skin gambling games where you can place a bet to win outstanding prizes. For example, if you obtain cheap skins from a case, you can opt for wagering them on games like Crash, which can easily turn your not-so-valuable skins into pretty expensive ones. One of the most popular games on our recommended sites is Case Battles, where you can bet against another player to see who gets the most valuable skins from all the cases you decide to wager. Whoever wins, takes the entire lot of skins. How to Select The Top CSGO Case Opening Sites: Complete Checklist Here’s the exact process that we used at the hour of analyzing each one of the sites from our ranking. You’re free to follow it yourself to pick your own CSGO case opening sites, or you can simply read this section to verify that we know what we’re talking about. Licenses and Audits For a CS:GO case opening site to be trustworthy, it needs to be licensed. It can be a license from a gambling control board from Gibraltar, Curacao, Malta, Isle of Man, or any other relevant jurisdiction that’s known for issuing licenses to gambling platforms. Case opening is gambling, so you need to ensure that the odds are not against you. The best way to ensure this is to verify that the site you want to use is Provably Fair. This blockchain system makes it possible to generate 100% random results that no party can know beforehand. If a CSGO case opening site is licensed and Provably Fair, then you have a good start. But you also need to verify if the site has been audited. This will guarantee that the Provably Fair system works properly, in order for you to deposit and open cases at the site without problems. Online Reputation You also need to check the online reputation of the CS:GO case opening site. Start by searching its name on Google, so you can obtain the following data: Relevant news Reviews Ratings Comments Etc. Gather as much info as possible that will help you to determine if the site in question is reputable or not. If you see that there are too many bad reviews and accusations, then it’s better to dismiss the site. On the other hand, if the majority of news, reviews, ratings and comments are positive, you can move on with the rest of the items in this checklist, to see if the site in question is actually good for you. Quality of Cases and Skins You’re here to open cases and win valuable skins, so after verifying that the site is licensed, legal, fair, and reputable, it’s time to check the quality of their offering in terms of cases and skins. Because you need lots of them. You can check this by joining the site and analyzing the options on their marketplace, or when you try to buy/open a CSGO case. You will get a full list of all the cases you can buy from the site, be it original ones or cases created by the site itself. If you see that the variety is good enough, then you can proceed with the other steps in this checklist. You can go the extra mile and check their prices, so you can compare it against other sites, to see if they’re really bringing you a competitive edge in this sense or not. Games Even though the focus is on case opening, it’s also good that a case opening site can bring you gambling games that will allow you to win even more skins. For example, these are the games we usually look for when selecting a case opening website: Case Battles Roulette Crash Dice Coinflip Minesweepers Plinko Case Battles, Dice, and Coinflip fall into the category of Peer to Peer games, because you will be playing against another user, removing the house edge from the equation. These games allow you to bet different cases/skins against other players, and whoever wins the battle, will take the whole prize home. As you can see, these games are a good addition to any CSGO case opening site, because they will bring you more possibilities when it comes to opening cases and winning skins. Welcome Bonuses and Offers For a CSGO case opening site to be excellent, it also needs to offer solid bonuses, offers and promotions. We usually look for the following bonuses and promos when evaluating a new website: Free skins bonuses Free money bonuses First deposit bonuses Cashback bonuses We also look for seasonal or frequent giveaways, because these can help you to win even more skins. You can participate in these giveaways for free, so that’s another huge plus that you will obtain by joining our recommended sites. We also analyze the Terms and Conditions of every bonus and promotion, to make sure that there are no problematic restrictions or hard wagering requirements. Online Security A proper CSGO case opening site also needs to protect you as a customer. That’s why we verify that they have high standards of online security, by implementing solutions such as… SSL Certificate Encryption of Communications CDN DDoS Protection 2FA and Email/SMS Alerts for Logging Attempts Dedicated Online Security Team These security measures will protect your information and your assets, as well as the money you have on the website, be it in the form of credits or crypto. We understand that these sites are always on the radar of hackers and cyber criminals, and that’s why we’ve only selected the sites that can really guarantee your online safety. Deposit and Withdrawal Methods It’s also important for the site you select to bring you a wide myriad of deposit and withdrawal methods, so you can administer your money and assets the way you wish. Most of our recommended sites support the following payment methods: CS:GO Skins PayPal Skrill Neteller Visa MasterCard AmericanExpress Cryptocurrencies Pay by Mobile AstroPay Etc. As you can see, you can administer your assets and money the way you wish at our recommended sites. But we also verify the following: The sites must be able to process the payments quickly They must be able to offer high limits for deposits and withdrawals The KYC procedures must be fast and easy to complete The sites must be able to process the payments with little or no fees. Our CSGO case opening sites will make your experience incredible because you won’t have to deal with limited, slow or expensive payment methods Customer Support Service We also make sure that the sites can bring you the customer support service you deserve. We check the following: The sites must be able to offer 24/7 customer support service (or 24/5 at least) They must be able to help you through live chat, phone or email They must have a proper F.A.Q section They must be able to respond to questions and solve issues fast. Testing the customer support service of every site is a really big task, so we’ve done it for you. Just choose a site from our list and you will have the peace of mind that you’re joining a good CSGO case opening platform. Free Cases and Promotions Available on CSGO Case Opening Sites These sites also offer different bonuses and promotions that will help you to win even more skins. Here’s what you need to know about them. Free Money Bonus These bonuses bring you a specific amount of free money that you can use to open different cases. Most of these bonuses bring you anywhere from $0.50 to $2.00 in free credits, with no deposit required, and most of the time, with very easy or non-existent wagering requirements. Free Skins/Cases Bonus This is one of the coolest bonuses when you want to focus on case opening, because you will get either free skins or cases. For example, CSGOLuck will bring you 5 FREE cases as a welcome bonus, just by joining the site with a special promo code. Extra Percentage Deposit Bonus If you’re ready to deposit real money, then you should take advantage of this bonus. For example, sites like DatDrop will bring you an extra 5% on your first deposit, so you can grow your funds to buy even more cases. This is especially sound if you’re ready to deposit big money, because you want to get serious on obtaining valuable and legendary skins. The Best CSGO Cases To Open You can find dozens over dozens of cases in CSGO, but what are the best ones you can open at our recommended sites? We’ll recommend the top cases, so you can focus your attention and resources on obtaining them: Recoil Case Gamma 2 Case Operation Broken Fang Case Winter Offensive Weapon Case Operation Riptide Case Prisma Case Operation Hydra Case Prisma 2 Case Falchion Case Chroma 3 Case All of these cases contain valuable skins, so it’s a good idea to focus on them. Be it by buying them directly or using them in Case Battles, you stand a fair chance at winning expensive skins that will have a huge positive impact on your inventory and CS:GO finances. For example, you can get a USP-S | Printstream from the Recoil Case, which can cost up to $300 USD if it’s factory-new. Another example is the StatTrak™ M4A4 | Asiimov from the Winter Offensive Weapon Case, which can cost over $500 USD. As you can see, you can find lots of valuable cases at our recommended sites, be it for opening them or gambling. You can use them to take your inventory to the next level. Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) If you still have questions about our recommended CSGO case opening sites, then this section will bring you the answers you need. Are CSGO case opening sites legal? Yes, as long as your jurisdiction considers online gambling as legal. This is true for the majority of countries, but certain regions such as North America might have a different take on it. Therefore, to make sure that a CSGO case opening site is legal in your country, check your local regulations and laws. Is CS:GO case opening the same as gambling? In many senses, yes. Because you’re placing a bet (paying the price to open the case) and you don’t really know what you will get in return. It could be a very valuable skin, or a dirt cheap one. You’re at the mercy of luck once you open the case, so it’s very similar to gambling. Can you open CSGO cases only with knives? Yes, you can find cases that will only contain knives at our recommended CS:GO case opening sites. Make sure to read the description so that you can verify that the content is 100% composed of knife skins. Remember that these cases are usually created by the site itself, so they do not belong to any official collection by CS:GO, but they’re rather grouped up together to form a knives only case. Are CS:GO case opening sites backed up by Valve? No, since all of our recommended sites are third-party, they’re not recommended, endorsed or supported by Valve. However, as we’ve seen on this page, third-party case opening sites are superior to Valve because you can get cases for a cheaper price, obtain more and valuable skins, and even take part in games to win even more skins and items. Can you play at CSGO case opening sites with cryptocurrencies? Yes, many of our recommended CSGO case opening sites support different cryptocurrencies such as BTC, ETH, USDT, DOGE, XRP, SOL, etc. You can use them for deposits and withdrawals whenever you want, and they usually process such payments real fast with very small fees.

COMCAST IS ROLLING OUT MULTI-GIG INTERNET SPEEDS TO SALT LAKE CITY HOMES AND BUSINESSES

Comcast Utah

Today Comcast launched an additional multi-gig Internet speed tier over its fiber-backed network to Xfinity and Comcast Business customers in Salt Lake City. Salt Lake City is the first community in Utah where Comcast is beginning to deliver download speeds of up to 2 Gbps over the network connections already existing in homes and businesses today. Once the rollout is complete, these multi-gig speeds will be available in all of Comcast’s service area in Salt Lake City, as well as throughout Comcast’s entire footprint in Utah. The new offerings are part of a nationwide rollout that will reach more than 50 million homes and businesses before the end of 2025 – making it the largest- and fastest-ever multi-gig network and WiFi deployment in the United States. In addition to multi-gigabit download speeds, Comcast is introducing faster upload speeds in Salt Lake City to Xfinity Internet customers who choose xFi Complete. New speeds will be paired with Comcast’s multi-gig Wi-Fi experience, which delivers the industry’s best combination of speed, coverage, and control, powered by one of the world’s first Wi-Fi 6E Gateways. Xfinity and Comcast Business customers will receive up to 5x to 10X faster upload speeds than their current levels. Comcast will begin offering 10G-enabled multi-gig symmetrical services in 2023. Network data shows downstream traffic remains 14X greater than upload, so the introduction of symmetrical upload speeds will be well in advance of demand. "One key takeaway from the pandemic remains clear: high-speed internet access is critical for everyone," said J.D. Keller, senior vice president, Comcast Mountain West Division. "Utah businesses need reliable, high-speed internet services -- students need to complete homework -- and families need to connect to loved ones around the globe. Comcast's continued investments in our network ensure Utahns have the technology to participate in today's digital world." “Investing in technology and infrastructure ensures Salt Lake City maintains the fastest and most reliable internet service for our residents,” said Salt Lake City Mayor Erin Mendenhall. “In my work as a founding member of the Utah Broadband Coalition, I’ve seen how the benefits of Comcast’s investments extend to businesses, government organizations, students and all Utahns; including seniors, veterans and those in low-income households. We greatly appreciate Comcast’s announcement today because it prepares us for tomorrow’s demands.” Faster speeds are just one of the consumer benefits made possible through Comcast’s continued efforts to evolve its entire network to 10G. 10G is a next-generation technology platform supported by a global collaboration of companies in the Internet industry focused on building networks that stay ahead of consumer demand for connectivity. Over the past several years, Comcast has been transitioning to a digital network technology – powered by a virtualized platform – that delivers greater reliability and increased performance. With it, rather than maintaining, updating, and replacing traditional analog network appliances by hand – which can take days or even weeks – Comcast engineers can reliably maintain, troubleshoot, and upgrade core network components almost instantly, with a few keystrokes on a laptop or mobile app. This also makes the network much more energy efficient and is an important element of Comcast’s plan to become carbon neutral by 2035. Because Comcast is evolving its entire network architecture, equipment, and customer devices, it’s uniquely positioned to deliver these advancements in speed, reliability, and performance to everyone it serves, not just a select few. And because much of this work is powered by software, these changes can be made with far less disruption to customers than other technologies. The new multi-gig speeds are available today to Xfinity and Comcast Business customers in parts of Salt Lake City and will be rolled out to Comcast markets across the country through 2025. Visit Xfinity or Comcast Business to learn more and sign up for these exciting new products. More about Comcast in Utah: · Comcast has nearly 700 miles of fiber in Salt Lake City – nearly 5,000 miles throughout the state of Utah. · More than 1 million homes and businesses have access to Xfinity and Comcast Business products and services statewide, including more than 100,000 in Salt Lake City. · Comcast has invested more than $389.6M in its network in Utah alone in the last three years. · We make continuous strategic investments in building broadband network capacity to stay ahead of demand — effectively doubling our capacity every 2.5 years. · Since 2011, Comcast has connected nearly 160,000 income-constrained Utahns to the Internet through its Internet Essentials Program –the nation’s largest and most successful private-sector low-income broadband adoption program. The program provides income-eligible people the ability to connect to the Internet for $9.95 per month. Additionally, Comcast participates in the Federal Affordable Connectivity Program which provides those who are eligible a $30 per month credit for the Internet service. · As part of Comcast’s ongoing commitment to help connect low-income families to the internet, Comcast also worked with our network of nonprofit, community, and city partners to equip nearly 39 locations across Utah with WiFi- connected Lift Zones where students and adults can get online, participate in learning and workforce development trainings, and access critical resources.

PENNSYLVANIA GAMING CONTROL BOARD APPROVES JOCK MKT TO BECOME STATE’S FIRST APPROVED STOCK MARKET FOR FANTASY SPORTS

Jock MKT

Backed by many of the giants of the sports betting industry and inspired by a traditional stock exchange, Jock MKT ( Jock Market ) announced it is fully operational in the State of Pennsylvania as of December 2022. Jock MKT allows users to buy and sell virtual shares of athletes in the NFL, NBA, NHL, MLB, PGA Tour, and NASCAR in real time during every second of every game for real money. Jock MKT is available via iPhone, Android, and the web for adults 18 and over and physically located in approved states. Launched in 2020, Jock MKT executives spent nearly two years working with the Pennsylvania Gaming Control Board to obtain a license to operate in Pennsylvania. The platform is now available in 35 states, including the nearby states of New Jersey and Ohio. As of Dec. 13, Jock MKT customers have traded 19.3 million shares, placing orders that exceed a combined $218 million on the platform. “With some of the nation’s most knowledgeable and passionate sports fans residing in Philadelphia and Pittsburgh, we know residents in Pennsylvania are going to enjoy the strategies and intricacies of Jock MKT,” said Jock MKT CEO Tyler Carlin. “Like a traditional stock market, our platform involves skill. However, with today’s news, we may see demand surge for shares of Jalen Hurts, A.J. Brown, and Joel Embiid on one side of the state and Kenny Pickett and Sidney Crosby on the other.” Jock MKT’s main differentiator is its cash market format – this unique offering gives users more flexibility and optionality versus typical daily fantasy contests. Customers can join at any time and for any dollar amount. They can buy and sell shares of athletes in real-time, lock in gains by selling early hot performers to another customer in-game, or hold to the end and receive fixed Jock MKT payouts tied to final player rankings based on overall fantasy scoring. Each cash market starts with an “Initial Player Offering,” or an IPO, where users have their first opportunity to bid on shares before any contest. As an organization, Jock MKT has tripled its workforce over the last year and plans to continue adding new features and offerings for fans. Jock MKT recently introduced longer-term markets that allow users to root for a player for a month or longer while having the opportunity for a monetary return in the short term. Jock MKT’s co-founder is Tyler Carlin, a 2013 MIT Sloan School of Management graduate. The platform raised its first round of funding led by Will Ventures, followed by a Series A round led by Left Lane Capital. Will Ventures’ Founding Partner and Managing Director is Isaiah Kacyvenski, a retired eight-year NFL veteran with a Harvard MBA. About Jock MKT Headquartered in Boston and launched in 2020, Jock MKT ( JockMKT.com ) is a skill-based fantasy gaming platform where customers can make real money – every minute, every second, of every game. Inspired by a traditional stock exchange, Jock MKT allows customers to buy and sell shares of athletes in real time. Jock MKT was co-founded by Tyler Carlin, and investors include Left Lane Capital, Will Ventures, Ryan Moore, Brandon Adams, Benjie Cherniak, Tim McSweeney, and Alumni Ventures Group. Available in the U.S. in 35 states, Jock MKT offers gaming options for events tied to the NFL, NBA, MLB, NHL, PGA Tour, and NASCAR. # # # Contact Details Eric Nemeth nemeth@ericpr.com Company Website https://jockmkt.com/

How to Pick a Trustworthy CS:GO Gambling Site We’ve also broken down the exact process we used for building this ranking. We share it with you so you can learn why each one of these sites is safe and guaranteed to bring you an exceptional CS:GO gambling experience. Does it have a valid license? It’s important to start by checking if they hold a valid gaming license from entities like Gibraltar, Curacao, Isle of Man, or Malta. This will ensure that the platform is legal and trustworthy, because it will mean that it meets the standards of different regulations to ensure customer safety. Is it Provably Fair and has been audited? For the games to be random and fair, the CSGO casino needs to be Provably Fair, a blockchain-powered system that ensures all the results are random and transparent. However, for our review team to give green light to a CSGO gambling site, it must have been audited to prove that their Provably Fair system works correctly. Furthermore, we also make sure that the firm that has audited the CSGO casino is a reputable and trusted one, such as iTech Labs or eCOGRA. What do the customers have to say about the CS:GO gambling site? Once you’ve verified that the platform has been licensed, audited and is Provably Fair, it’s time to check what the customers have to say about it. Check the ratings, comments and reviews it’s been received on different communities and forums, so you can judge yourself if the CSGO casino is good or not. This one is likely to take you several hours, but worry not because all of our recommended sites have already been validated in this aspect. They all are trusted and loved by the CS:GO gambling community. What games does it offer? At this stage, you have a CSGO casino that’s licensed, audited, Provably Fair and backed up by the community, so it’s time to analyze their selection of games. We make sure that they offer solid games such as CSGO Roulette, Crash, Mines, Towers, Plinko, CSGO Poker, Coinflip, Dice, etc. Keep in mind that a good CSGO site does not need to offer all the CSGO games in existence, as long as they’re exceptional in the games they offer. For example, CSGOEmpire only offers Roulette and Coinflip, but it’s the best platform for playing both games. Despite its limited catalog, it’s still one of the top CSGO casinos in 2023. Therefore, make sure to review the quantity and the quality of the games that a CSGO gambling site offers, so you can perform an objective analysis. That’s why we have recommended sites for every game. Be it Crash, Roulette, Coinflip or any other game, you can find a great recommendation in our list. Are the bonuses and promotions good? You need to judge if the bonuses and promos are good. For starters, the site should offer a good welcome bonus, be it matched, free skins or free cash. Furthermore, the bonus(es) need to come along with easy wagering requirements, so you can actually use it to increase your earnings. To judge if a bonus or promotion is good, you need to analyze the Terms and Conditions, a process that will require several hours per site. Our team has already done this for you, so you can just go and claim generous, fair and easy-to-cash-out bonuses and promos. What payment methods do they offer? Every site from our list supports payment methods in different categories such as eWallets, debit/credit cards, CS:GO skins, crypto, prepaid cards, mobile payments, and bank transfers. The site you choose should offer you this kind of variety. Furthermore, you also need to make sure that the fees for deposits/withdrawals are small or non-existent in the best of cases, and should come along with fast processing times. Is it equipped with strong online security protocols and tech? Now it’s time to analyze what security protocols and tech they use to protect your information and assets. The site should have a valid SSL certificate from a company like Comodo, use a Content Distribution Network such as CloudFlare, offer security measures such as 2FA, have a clean record free from data leaks or hacks, and a dedicated online security team. Does the site offer competent customer support service? It’s also important that the site can handle your questions and issues efficiently. Start by checking that the site offers multi-channel customer support such as via live chat, email, phone, social media, etc. After that, you need to check if the site’s customer support team can answer your queries fast and efficiently. Unfortunately, this will require you to contact the CSGO casino via every channel they offer, to judge the quality of the service yourself. This process can take hours if not days, but since we’ve already verified that every site from our list offers fast and efficient customer support service, you don’t have to worry about it. Is it mobile friendly? Even though it’s not mandatory for a CSGO gambling site to be mobile friendly, it’s a huge plus. Make sure to test the mobile website and the mobile app, to see if you have access to all or the majority games, if the platform works well on your device and if it offers a solid gambling experience. Once again, doing this on your own can take quite a while, but we’ve already validated that platforms like CSGOPolygon are awesome for mobile gambling. Types of Bonuses on CS:GO Gambling Website (Free Coins, Credits & More) CS:GO gambling sites offer different types of bonuses, so you can get motivated to join them as soon as possible. Here you will find a review on the different promotions you can claim at these casinos. Matched Bonus This bonus will award you with a fixed extra percentage on your first deposit(s). For example, if the offer reads as “Get 100% extra up to $100”, then if you deposit $100, you will get an extra $100, leaving you with a bankroll of $200.00 USD. Free CSGO Skins Bonus All you have to do is to enter your promo code and you will obtain a bonus of free CSGO skins, which you can use to bet on different games such as Crash, Coinflip, Dice, Roulette, etc. You can convert them to the internal currency of the site as well, in case you prefer to gamble that way.
