Data Vault, HYPERVSN Team Up To Take On Multi-Billion Dollar Holographic Market Backed By Mark Cuban And Sir Richard Branson With New Next-Gen Solution

Benzinga

By Meg Flippin, Benzinga Data Vault Holdings Inc., which is selling its IP and IT assets to WiSA Technologies Inc. (NASDAQ: WISA), just launched a next-generation hologram product the company says is a step forward in the fields of advertising, signage and live events. Data Vault Holdings developed the product in partnership with HYPERVSN, a provider of holographic solutions which is backed by prominent venture investors including Sir Richard Branson and Mark Cuban. This follows WiSA’s definitive agreement to acquire Data Vault Holdings’ Datavault® and ADIO® IP assets. DVHolo, powered by ADIO, provides businesses with an immersive real-time 3D holographic to sell their products, host concerts and promote brands. Data Vault says DVHolo gives companies 40% longer viewing and engagement time and double the chance of the holographic images being seen compared to 2D digital signage. Meanwhile HYPERVSN reports holographic signage has the potential to boost the product’s sales by as much as 40%. With DVHolo, customers also get access to ADIO’s analytics and reporting capabilities, giving businesses insights into consumer behavior and the campaign's effectiveness. “Unlike traditional advertising, this powerful combination brings an entirely new experience that captures and better retains audience attention, significantly increasing engagement and conversions," said Nathaniel Bradley, co-founder and CEO of Data Vault Holdings. Timing Is Everything This new product suite combines ADIO, which leverages data packets embedded within audio signals to deliver targeted content, with HYPERVSN’s 3D holograms. By synchronizing the audio signals with HYPERVSN’s 3D holographic visuals, the companies say DVHolo offers a fully immersive experience. In addition to serving up ads, DVHolo is designed to broadcast live events in real time, featuring high-definition 3D holograms of presenters, performers or speakers. The launch of DVHolo comes shortly after WiSA Technologies, a provider of immersive wireless sound technology for intelligent devices and next-generation home entertainment systems, entered into a definitive asset purchase agreement to buy Data Vault’s Datavault and ADIO IP and IT assets in a $210 million deal. The deal was inked in September and is expected to close in the first quarter. Once the transaction is complete, WiSA expects to license Datavault’s technology across a broad range of industries, including sports and entertainment, events and venues, restaurants, education and other industries. “This exciting transaction leverages our public company structure, creating a larger, more dynamic entity with broad reach in multiple rapidly growing markets,” Brett Moyer, CEO of WiSA Technologies, said when the deal was announced. “Datavault’s substantial IP portfolio significantly amplifies our spatial audio technology and adds powerful HPC assets.” Bradley will become CEO and Moyer CFO upon the closing of the transaction. The company will also change its name to Datavault Inc. Holographic Market Appears To Be Taking Off DVHolo is launching at a time when the global holographic display market is taking off, driven by advances in laser technology, optics and digital light processing. That has resulted in brighter and more realistic 3D images, reports Global Market Insights. The market research firm expects the holographic market to reach $23 billion by 2032, growing at a CAGR of more than 20% over 2024-2032. Data Vault and HYPERVSN said they are positioned to capitalize on growth by offering a solution that meets the increasing demand for immersive digital experiences across different industries. "HYPERVSN's partnership with Data Vault Holdings allows organizations to extend their reach, engage with larger audiences and maximize impact, without the significant costs typically associated with traditional methods,” said Kiryl Chykeyuk, CEO and Co-Founder of HYPERVSN, which counts Sir Richard Branson and Mark Cuban as investors. “DVHolo's ability to seamlessly integrate content into various platforms ensures that brands can activate and monetize audiences anywhere, anytime, with unparalleled efficiency."

Navigating Market Volatility: Cboe Launches Options On VIX Futures

Benzinga

By CBOE Cboe Global Markets, Inc. (CBOE: CBOE) is taking the world of options trading by storm. Not only did they recently launch options on Cboe Volatility Index Futures (VX Options), a new solution that offers more choices for expressing directional views and managing equity market volatility exposure, they also just announced at the HOOD Summit in Miami, FL on Oct. 17, that Robinhood customers would be able to trade index options – including Cboe's flagship S&P 500 Index (SPX ® ) options, Cboe Volatility Index (VIX ® ) options, Russell 2000 Index (RUT ® ) options, and Mini SPX (XSP ® ) options – on the brokerage firm's platform. This expands their trading capabilities while also potentially meeting the rising investor demand for options trading. Demand for options trading has risen among retail and institutional investors seeking tools to manage risk and capture market opportunities. As reported by the Options Clearing Corporation, in 2023, total U.S. options volumes exceeded 11 billion contracts, marking the fourth consecutive year of record volumes and a 126% increase since 2019. The average daily volume this year through the third quarter of 2024 was 47 million contracts, an 8% increase compared to the same period last year. Against this backdrop, the launch of Options on Cboe Volatility Index Futures expands Cboe’s ecosystem of tradable volatility products, potentially enabling investors to better understand the volatility in which the market is pricing. Options On Cboe Volatility Index Futures Explained Options on futures are contracts that represent the right, not the obligation, to either buy (go long) or sell (go short) a particular underlying futures contract at a specified price on or before a specified date, the expiration date. Regarding Cboe’s recently launched product, VX Options are options on VX futures. VX futures are cash-settled futures on the Cboe Volatility Index (VIX ® Index) listed for trading on the Cboe Futures Exchange, LLC (CFE). VX Options have European-style exercise, are physically settled, and have PM settlement; most options on futures expire at the close of the market on the last trading day. The VX futures contract that underlies a VX Options contract is the front-month VX futures contract relative to the expiration date of the VX Options contract. The Value Proposition Of Options On Cboe Volatility Index Futures The creation of this new Cboe product provides increased optionality for investors. A primary benefit of this new solution is that it could provide more “mid-curve style” exposure, facilitating a new and different payout profile than what is currently available in the exchange-traded derivatives space. The mid-curve style exposure of VX options will also allow investors to take short-term views on the movement of forward volatility, resulting in a secondary benefit - increased liquidity. This is because VX Options will provide shorter-dated VIX exposure, for which the underlying is the front month VX future, generally the most liquid VX future. In-the-money options are settled into the front-month VIX futures contract which enables more precise delta management. Finally, trading data from VX Options should yield new insights into the volatility-of-volatility term structure, which measures how uncertain the future volatility of an asset's price is expected to be. Having this information thereby enhances risk management efficiency across the entire market. Enhancing The Marketplace With Innovation The launch of Options on Cboe Volatility Index Futures appears to demonstrate innovation within the VIX ecosystem, particularly in enhancing the diversity and efficiency of trading strategies. In speaking about the launch of this new product offering, Catherine Clay, Global Head of Derivatives at Cboe, has stated, “Investors have long utilized VIX options and VIX futures to help hedge and manage volatility exposure, and Cboe is proud to expand our volatility product suite at such a critical time. With its options-on-futures structure, the new Options on VIX Futures will look to meet growing customer demand as Cboe works to provide an efficient and seamless experience to both existing and new CFE market participants. The launch will complement our existing volatility offerings, including the recently launched Cboe S&P 500 Variance futures, and enable more investors with the ability to help manage volatility and risk through the election season and beyond.” As investors become more knowledgeable and sophisticated in using derivative instruments, their demand for products, like Options on Cboe Volatility Index Futures, could continue to increase. To accompany their product innovations, Cboe also has the Cboe Options Institute, which has been a leader in options education for more than 35 years. It has a vast library of resources, including free online courses, webinars, interactive tutorials and insights from top market experts and academics, all tailored to help retail traders – whether beginners or seasoned investors – enhance their understanding of index options and build the knowledge they need to trade confidently.

Global MMA Superstar Conor McGregor Set To Drive Alta Global Group Growth After Ambassador Deal

RazorPitch MMA

Alta Global Group (NYSE:MMA), the premiere tech company on a mission to convert 640 million loyal combat sports fans to participants, has been gaining widespread attention from investors as it appears well positioned for major growth. In what is yet another critical milestone for the company, Alta Global Group (NYSE American: MMA) announced a new brand ambassadorship deal with Conor McGregor, the iconic former UFC superstar. This new deal incentivizes McGregor to assist Alta in any way possible and will potentially see him increase his stake in the company since he will get additional bonus shares as MMA’s stock price moves higher all the way to $20 per share. McGregor, who is known for his unparalleled reach and influence, boasting over 70 million followers across X (formerly Twitter), Instagram, and Facebook, will leverage his extensive fan base to promote Alta's innovative products and programs. As a former UFC Featherweight and Lightweight Champion, the first to hold titles in two weight classes simultaneously, and a former Cage Warriors Featherweight and Lightweight Champion, McGregor's achievements have cemented his status as the biggest pay-per-view draw in MMA history. His fights have consistently broken records, with his bout against Khabib Nurmagomedov at UFC 229 drawing 2.4 million buys and his boxing debut against Floyd Mayweather Jr. garnering over 5.3 million buys illustrating his massive appeal to fans of combat sports. This ties in well with the fact that Alta Global Group (NYSE:MMA) has already amassed its own substantial user base and strong user engagement of about 15 million monthly views and over 5 million social media users. It also currently ranks in the top 3 for ‘MMA’ in global search results. In addition to that, McGregor's contribution to popularizing MMA and the UFC on a global scale is undeniable considering that in 2021 Forbes recognized him as the world's highest-paid athlete, earning $180 million. Nick Langton, Founder and CEO of Alta, remarked, "Conor McGregor’s involvement is a game-changer for Alta Global Group. His legacy and influence in the world of MMA are unmatched. We are honored and thrilled to have his endorsement and support, which will be instrumental in revolutionizing the martial arts and combat sports landscape." That is why McGregor's role will be pivotal in the growth of Alta’s Warrior Training Program and the promotion of Hype, Alta’s all-in-one marketing platform tailored for gyms, coaches, and combat sport participants. He will also play a significant part in promoting Alta’s newly established partnership with UFC Gyms, which will integrate the Warrior Training Program across their network of over 150 gyms worldwide. For context, Hype is like a mini-website builder, a CRM, and a payments processor, all built into one that you can operate from your smartphone. What this platform basically does is that it allows business owners to take their followers from social media apps and funnel them into a platform with more freedom and tools to communicate and monetize without being under the mercy of algorithms. Now add this to the fact that Alta has already built a huge database of over 9000 professional and amateur athlete profiles, 5645+ potential content creator profiles, and 3500+ tutorial libraries. That means that Alta Global Group (NYSE:MMA) is well positioned to provide marketing content, training syllabuses for gyms and coaches, and connect the underlying fans to an opportunity to train either online or inside a gym at one of the company’s gym partners globally. This is a win-win deal for everyone in the ecosystem, as fans interested in participating in the sport can be matched up with a coach and gym easily. Another important thing for investors to note is that Alta is monetizing in a way that the UFC or other large professional promotions don't presently do, which is through fan base participation and could make it a very attractive company in the eyes of these much larger companies in the future. More recently, the company announced that it had sealed a partnership deal with UFC Gym, including their Warrior Training program, which could bring in revenue of at least $7 million annually, illustrating just how substantial this opportunity is. Alta’s market capitalization is about $40 million right now, but there's plenty of room for upside, especially now that McGregor has become the company’s official ambassador based on the kind of social media reach he has. Moreover, according to a recent TechSci Research report, the global combat sports market is set for explosive growth driven by rising global interest in fitness and the widespread adoption of combat sports as a means of physical exercise as consumers realize the health benefits and mental discipline associated with these activities. This market is set to experience robust growth, growing from $8.7 billion in 2023 to about $12.6 billion by 2029, representing a CAGR of 6.5%. Disclaimers: RazorPitch Inc.
