Floki has launched an ambitious pitch side LED advertising campaign in the Rugby Super League, the premier competition of the British Rugby League.
The campaign will feature 150 minutes of LED ads across the 2025 season, with an estimated 110 million impressions in the UK alone. These figures exclude BBC-broadcasted matches, which typically see even higher viewership, as well as international audiences.
Rugby League fans often align with the profile of potential crypto investors — they are typically well-off, brand-conscious, and community-oriented.
In the UK, Sky Sports remains the primary broadcaster for the Super League and has increased its live game coverage to 170 matches for the 2025 season.
The BBC adds to this with 15 live matches a year, plus highlights and regional coverage, increasing its reach in the UK.
Internationally, the Super League’s reach continues to grow. For the 2024 season, broadcasting agreements were announced in key regions such as Australia, Canada, Asia, and Africa. Channels like Fox Sports, NITV, Rogers Media, Premier Sports Asia, and ESPN Africa are helping expand the league’s global footprint.
Floki’s campaign will appear in approximately 50 matches throughout the Super League season, starting with major fixtures like Wigan Warriors vs. Leigh Leopards on February 13 and concluding with marquee games such as Wigan Warriors vs. Warrington Wolves in Las Vegas on March 1.
Domestic TV audiences for Super League games can reach up to 600,000 viewers per match.
An Untapped Space
Unlike other sports saturated with crypto sponsorships, Rugby League offers a relatively untapped space, allowing Floki to stand out and forge stronger connections with fans. This lack of competition in the crypto advertising space provides Floki with the opportunity to create impactful brand associations.
With the Super League’s growing global reach and dedicated fanbase, this campaign positions Floki to increase its visibility and strengthen its presence in both the sports and crypto sectors.

A.R.T. Digital Holdings Corp. (OTCMKTS: CGAC), a publicly traded Digital Energy and Bitcoin mining company, has entered into a binding exclusivity agreement to secure the rights to utilize Forced Physics’ JouleForce™ cooling technology in the cryptocurrency mining sector. By leveraging this breakthrough innovation, A.R.T. Digital is advancing the development of a scalable mining system built to JouleForce specifications, addressing Bitcoin mining’s greatest challenges: thermal management, sustainability, and operational efficiency.
This exclusive agreement highlights A.R.T. Digital’s commitment to advancing Bitcoin mining technology. It unlocks new opportunities to redefine industry approaches to thermal management, reinforcing the company’s role in next-generation mining solutions.
A.R.T. Digital will deliver its first system, built to JouleForce specifications. This initiative combines Forced Physics’ transformative cooling innovation with advanced system development, ensuring seamless integration, aiming to enhance efficiency and scalability in the mining sector.
“This project highlights the power of innovation and collaboration,” said Brian Snyder, Chief Strategy and Innovation Officer at A.R.T. Digital. “By bringing JouleForce technology to life, we’re not just solving Bitcoin mining’s most critical challenge—we’re creating an entirely new standard for sustainable, high-performance operations.”
This breakthrough technology and strategic collaboration underscore A.R.T. Digital’s commitment to advancing the Bitcoin mining industry, opening doors to untapped energy-rich regions, and setting the stage for transformative growth.
Advancing Cooling Efficiency
As Bitcoin mining hardware evolves to smaller, more powerful nodes like 3nm processors, thermal management has emerged as a critical challenge. Traditional cooling systems depend on large temperature differentials (delta T) between the chip’s operating temperature and intake air to dissipate heat effectively. In warmer climates where ambient air exceeds 95°F (35°C), this reliance significantly reduces efficiency, forcing machines to throttle performance, lower hash rate output, and ultimately diminish mining profitability.
Even in controlled environments with intake air at 70°F, conventional heat sinks fall short. A chip operating at 185°F typically exhausts air at only 100-110°F, creating a large and inefficient temperature differential. This inefficiency drives higher energy consumption for fans, HVAC systems, and other cooling infrastructure, adding substantial operational costs.
Forced Physics’ JouleForce cooling technology addresses this challenge head-on. By utilizing a vapor chamber coupled with their patented engineered blades, the system maximizes thermal exchange between air molecules and the heat sink surface. Unlike traditional systems, JouleForce minimizes the temperature gap, allowing exhaust air temperatures to approach the chip’s operating temperature even in extreme heat, enabling efficient and reliable performance where conventional solutions fail. In cooler environments, this innovation allows for effective overclocking.
Key benefits of JouleForce cooling technology include:
- Exhaust air temperatures can reach near the chip temperature through improved thermal exchange, maintaining optimal ASIC operating temperatures in hot environments.
- Reliable operation in hot climates without throttling performance or reducing hash rate.
- Elimination of expensive cooling infrastructure like water chillers, HVAC, or wet walls.
- This water-free solution not only reduces operational costs but also supports environmentally sustainable mining practices, a growing priority in the cryptocurrency sector.
- Reduced energy consumption by simplifying airflow systems and cooling requirements.
This breakthrough enables mining systems to operate efficiently in extreme environments, unlocking opportunities in energy-abundant but traditionally impractical regions.
“This isn’t just incremental progress—it’s a complete rethinking of air cooling,” said Brian Snyder, Chief Strategy and Innovation Officer at A.R.T. Digital. “While delta T inefficiencies limit traditional systems, JouleForce technology aligns cooling performance directly with the chip’s needs. This enables Bitcoin miners to operate efficiently where other systems simply cannot.
Real-World Validation and Scalability
JouleForce cooling technology has demonstrated stable operation in extreme temperatures where traditional systems fail or throttle performance. Powered by a single high-power blower, the system optimizes energy efficiency and density, offering a scalable, water-free solution. This innovative design eliminates operational complexities and reduces infrastructure costs, making it ideal for deployment in energy-rich but hot climates like the Middle East, South America, and other regions with scarce water resources.
Unlocking a New Era of Mining
JouleForce technology empowers Bitcoin miners to:
- Operate in extreme climates with intake air temperatures up to 120°F.
- Eliminate reliance on water-based cooling infrastructure.
- Reduce energy consumption while maximizing performance and profitability.
This innovation addresses the thermal limitations of modern mining hardware. It sets a new standard for efficiency and sustainability, paving the way for the future of Bitcoin mining in underdeveloped, energy-abundant regions.

Cloudbet, a prominent crypto sportsbook, has added President Trump’s official $TRUMP token to its list of 40+ supported cryptocurrencies. The platform now offers users the opportunity to bet on Canada’s next prime minister using $TRUMP, a memecoin recently launched by US President-elect Donald J. Trump.
A Cloudbet spokesperson says, “Trump’s inauguration means there’s nothing left to bet on in US politics – for now. But up North? Canada is wide open. You can bet on Pierre Poilievre at 1.20 odds to take over as Prime Minister – with $TRUMP. This is populism at its finest. This, for better or worse, is the world we’re living in, and we’re rolling with it.”
With Prime Minister Justin Trudeau stepping down earlier this month, the competition for Canada’s leadership is intensifying. Conservative leader Pierre Poilievre is the clear favorite at 1.20 odds, while Cloudbet also lists other contenders such as Melissa Lantsman (10.0), Chrystia Freeland (40.0), and even Ryan Reynolds (150.0).
“Canada has always been America’s hat, and lately it’s looking a little like a MAGA cap,” said a Cloudbet spokesperson. “Imagine telling someone ten years ago that they could bet on a Canadian election with a memecoin created by the President of the United States, who happens to be Donald Trump, again. I don’t know what that means for the future of North American politics, but the $TRUMP token is crossing borders – ironically, something its namesake is not usually known to support.”
$TRUMP token: A meme for the masses
The $TRUMP token, launched on January 18 as part of Trump’s celebration, has quickly gained attention in the crypto world, reaching a market cap of over $15 billion by early Sunday. Now accepted on Cloudbet, it joins over 40 cryptocurrencies supported by the platform, including Bitcoin, Ethereum, Solana, and other memecoins like DOGE and BRETT.
Aside from Canadian politics, bettors can use $TRUMP:
- NFL playoffs and other major sports events.
- Esports markets, including League of Legends and CS:GO.
- Global political events and much more – including the race to become the next Prime Minister of the UK. Populist favorites include Nigel Farage at 3.50 odds, with $TRUMP available.
About Cloudbet
Founded in 2013, Cloudbet is the world’s longest-running crypto casino and sportsbook. Over the past decade, players worldwide have placed millions of bets using over 40 different cryptocurrencies.

Hyperbridge Extends Token Offering Deadline, Token Generation Event Set for Q1 2025
Following the successful launch of its mainnet and Gateway Token Bridge, Hyperbridge announces the extension of its Initial Relayer Offering (IRO) deadline to February 28th, 2025. This decision comes in response to overwhelming demand, with over 52 million tokens out of the total 100 million supply already sold.
The extension offers prospective participants a limited-time opportunity to join the Hyperbridge network, with early buyers still eligible for bonuses. As Hyperbridge expands its reach, this extension provides a final window for supporters to secure their position within the ecosystem.
- 50% Bonus Already Claimed: Early participants who joined before the initial deadline secured a 50% token bonus, a testament to Hyperbridge’s commitment to rewarding early adoption.
- 15% Bonus Available: A limited opportunity remains for participants to receive a 15% bonus on their token purchase.
“We’ve been thrilled by the incredible support from our community so far,” said Seun Lanlege, Founder of Polytope Labs. “Selling over 52 million tokens is a major milestone, and with the extension, we’re excited to welcome even more relayers into the Hyperbridge network before our Token Generation Event in Q1.”
Hyperbridge’s mainnet launch marks a notable advancement in its journey toward transforming blockchain interoperability. The protocol has integrations with many ecosystems, including Ethereum, Optimism, Arbitrum, Base, BNB Chain, zkVerify, Gnosis, Bifrost, and more.
The Gateway Token Bridge is already live, enabling secure, scalable cross-chain token transfers, messaging, and state queries. These integrations position Hyperbridge as a key contributor to the advancement of cross-chain applications.
Hyperbridge is set to hold its Token Generation Event in Q1 2025, and participants in the IRO will be among the first to receive their tokens, unlocking opportunities to actively engage with the protocol.
With its advanced zk-technology and focus on security, Hyperbridge has already seen rapid adoption, supported by integrations across major blockchain ecosystems. The protocol’s hub model ensures scalability and reliability, attracting developers, DAOs, and DeFi projects looking for robust cross-chain solutions.
Regarding utility for the Hyperbridge token, $BRIDGE: a minimal BRIDGE token fee is required for transactions. So transactions such as cross-chain messages, storage queries, and state reads will use the token. Tokens collected as transaction fees are used to fund incentives and rewards for both relayers and block producers. Hence the token is planned to have zero inflation. The token will also be used for governance.
