LONDON, July 29, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — Google and Formula E announced today that the Generative AI hackathon that took place ahead of the 2024 Hankook London E-Prix has been awarded a Guiness World Record for the most participated in-person Generative AI hackathon; to which Ancoris emerged as winners.

“It’s easy to fall into the trap of feeling lucky to be named a winner at an event like this – where so many people take part; but the reality is that our teams do this type of work day-in-day-out, and are really good at it,” says Andre Azevedo, Ancoris CEO. “When the conversations we have with our customers focus so heavily on how we can help them solve business problems, it’s no surprise to me that our teams are able to deliver rapid prototypes to show how problems can be solved within a number of hours during a hackathon.”

“AI has changed the way organisations approach the same or new problems, and, from a skills perspective, the continued evolution of this technology means we have to stay on top of upskilling and training,” says Belen Ripoll, Ancoris Chief People Officer. “This hackathon win is of course a win for Ancoris, but more importantly, a win for the individuals across our business who stretch and push themselves to solve customer problems in new ways every day – and a demonstration of just how good they are at what they do.”

“We’re proud partners of Google Cloud, who are constantly pushing the boundaries to innovate and deliver for our joint customers,” says Azevedo. “Hackathons are a fantastic way to demonstrate the art of the possible when it comes to AI – we are already delivering these types of engagements for our customers as a way to forge a path for AI adoption across their organisations – long may it continue.”

BingX Introduces ALTCOIN Index Futures Trading: One Click, Countless Trends

Published

on

By

VILNIUS, Lithuania, Dec. 27, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — BingX, a global leading cryptocurrency exchange, is excited to announce the launch of ALTCOIN Index, the first futures trading pair involving top altcoins. This innovative trading product offers users a one-click solution to efficiently track and trade major cryptocurrency trends with ease.

Traditionally used in stock markets, a futures index is a financial derivative that tracks the performance of a group of assets, such as stocks of commodities. These instruments were first introduced to simplify trading by allowing investors to speculate on or hedge against the collective movements of selected market sectors. Instead of purchasing individual stocks, traders are able to access broad market exposure in a single transaction, saving time and reducing costs.

In the cryptocurrency market, this new ALTCOIN/USDT futures trading pair works similarly by bundling the performance of the top mainstream cryptocurrencies by market capitalization, excluding Bitcoin (BTC) and stablecoins. The current index includes ETH, XRP, SOL, BNB, DOGE, ADA, TRX, AVAX, and SHIB. This approach is more efficient compared to buying individual cryptocurrencies or ETFs as this allows for direct speculation using tiered leverage options without the need to manage multiple positions, effectively diversifying trading risks associated with individual asset volatility.

Vivien Lin, Chief Product Officer of BingX, commented on the new offering: “By aggregating a range of leading cryptocurrencies into a single trading instrument, we’re giving users a practical and efficient way to better capture market trends. This index trading pair should help our less experienced users with their trading goals more easily, particularly when they are unsure which asset to trade and just want to trade major altcoins in general with leverage.”

BingX users can take advantage of tiered leverage options and competitive rates consistent with the platform’s perpetual futures terms, simplifying open order management and enhancing trading efficiency. The platform also ensures that the index composition remains current, with regular quarterly adjustments and temporary updates in response to market conditions.

About BingX
Founded in 2018, BingX is a leading crypto exchange, serving over 10 million users worldwide. BingX offers diversified products and services, including spot, derivatives, copy trading, and asset management – all designed for the evolving needs of users, from beginners to professionals. BingX is committed to providing a trustworthy platform that empowers users with innovative tools and features to elevate their trading proficiency. In 2024, BingX proudly became the official crypto exchange partner of Chelsea Football Club, marking an exciting debut in the world of sports.
