Coinbase has launched a new initiative called Coinbase Learning Rewards, featuring three lessons and one quest focused on the DIMO project. This program provides users with an opportunity to engage with the onchain ecosystem while learning about innovative concepts in the automotive industry. By participating in these lessons, users will gain insights into DIMO's mission to revolutionize vehicle ownership, how it empowers car owners to drive smarter, and the significance of vehicle data within an open mobility network. Upon completing the third lesson and its accompanying quiz, users will earn $DIMO tokens, setting the stage for the quest to connect a new vehicle to the DIMO network. To participate in the DIMO Learning Rewards, users must first download the Coinbase app from either the iOS App Store or Google Play Store and create an account. Eligibility for the Learning Rewards campaign requires users to have completed identity verification and executed a trade within the app. After setting up their accounts, users can access the rewards portal from the main menu. Completing all three lessons unlocks the car connection quest, which requires users to enter their email address to link their DIMO account for reward disbursement. It is crucial to log in to DIMO with the same email to ensure rewards are credited correctly. The quest's completion is contingent upon the user's vehicle, with specific requirements varying by manufacturer. Users can connect their vehicles either through existing software applications or by using DIMO's hardware device, the LTE R1. For those purchasing the LTE R1, a discount code is available. To successfully complete the quest, users must connect a new vehicle with a unique VIN that has not been previously registered, as re-adding a vehicle will not count towards completion. Overall, this initiative aims to enhance user engagement and promote the DIMO mission within the crypto community.

In the evolving landscape of digital marketing, the tension between delivering personalized experiences and respecting user privacy is becoming increasingly pronounced. Marketers are often likened to oil drillers, eager to extract value from data but sometimes neglecting the ethical implications of their actions. The recent missteps by companies, such as Kaiser Permanente's accidental sharing of private health information affecting millions, highlight the urgent need for a shift towards privacy-first strategies. As consumers grow more cautious about their personal information, the challenge for marketers is to balance innovative data protection methods with business objectives. Web3 technology presents a transformative opportunity for marketers to rebuild trust with consumers by prioritizing privacy and consent. Traditional marketing practices, often perceived as intrusive, are losing their effectiveness as users demand transparency and control over their data. Issues such as data breaches and lack of user consent are driving customers away, leading to a loss of trust that can be devastating for brands. The Ticketmaster data breach serves as a stark reminder of the consequences of failing to protect user data, emphasizing the need for a new approach that respects user rights and fosters loyalty. iExec's R3ach tool exemplifies how marketers can navigate this complex landscape by implementing privacy-first strategies. By utilizing confidential computing technologies, R3ach enables secure communication with users without accessing their personal information. This innovative solution not only facilitates targeted marketing campaigns but also empowers users by allowing them to control their data-sharing choices. As brands embrace these privacy-centric practices, they can reclaim consumer trust and establish long-lasting relationships, ultimately positioning themselves for success in a privacy-conscious market.

Arkreen is making significant strides in promoting transparency and community trust through its monthly token burn initiative. For November 2024, the total burn of $AKRE tokens reached 1,016,816.02, reflecting the company's commitment to sustainability and accountability. The process involves a service fee for issuing tokenized Renewable Energy Certificates (ART), with each ART equating to 1000 $AKRE. In November, Arkreen issued 370.91467 ART, collecting fees amounting to 370,914.67 $AKRE. Of this, 296,731.74 $AKRE was allocated for burning, while 74,182.93 $AKRE was directed to the treasury, enhancing the ecosystem's financial health. In addition to the issuance fees, November 2024 marked a pivotal moment for Arkreen with the introduction of service fees for on-chain ART offsets. This new initiative allocates 80% of the collected fees for token burns, reinforcing the deflationary model of the ecosystem. Each ART offset incurs a fee of 1 ART = 1000 $AKRE, with the Arkreen Foundation currently sponsoring these fees during the smart contract upgrade. In November, 900.10535 ART offsets were processed, resulting in 720,084.28 $AKRE planned for burning and 180,021.07 $AKRE allocated to the treasury. Looking ahead, Arkreen remains dedicated to its mission of fostering a sustainable and decentralized future. The token burns are a crucial aspect of maintaining a deflationary model, which not only enhances value for stakeholders but also supports the growth of decentralized renewable energy solutions. With a remaining supply of 9,988,588,639.63 $AKRE, Arkreen is poised for future success, with additional burns planned based on utility revenue. The community is encouraged to stay engaged as Arkreen continues its journey toward a greener tomorrow, with the next update expected in January 2025.
