Published

on

WASHINGTON, July 2, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — NASA has selected Space Exploration Technologies Corporation (SpaceX) of Hawthorne, California, to provide launch services for the COSI (Compton Spectrometer and Imager) mission.

The firm-fixed-price contract has a value of approximately $69 million, which includes launch services and other mission related costs. The COSI mission currently is targeted to launch August 2027 on a SpaceX Falcon 9 rocket from Cape Canaveral Space Force Station.

This wide-field gamma-ray telescope will study energetic phenomena in the Milky Way and beyond, including the creation and destruction of matter and antimatter and the final stages of the lives of stars. NASA’s COSI mission will probe the origins of the Milky Way’s galactic positrons, uncover the sites of nucleosynthesis in our galaxy, perform studies of gamma-ray polarization, and find counterparts to multi-messenger sources. The compact Compton telescope combines improved sensitivity, spectral resolution, angular resolution, and sky coverage to facilitate groundbreaking science.

The mission is a collaboration between the University of California, Berkeley’s Space Sciences Laboratory, the University of California, San Diego, the Naval Research Laboratory, NASA’s Goddard Space Flight Center, and Northrop Grumman.

The COSI principal investigator-led project management team is located at the University of California, Berkeley. NASA’s Astrophysics Explorers Program at Goddard Space Flight Center in Greenbelt, Maryland, supports development of the project for the Astrophysics Division within NASA’s Science Mission Directorate. NASA’s Launch Services Program at the Kennedy Space Center in Florida is responsible for program management of the launch services.

RWA Infra Development L.L.C. announces the $RWAID token. “$RWAID tokenizing infrastructure for the masses.”

Published

By

RWA Infra Development L.L.C. (“RIDev”) has created $RWAID a Real World Asset (“RWA”) cryptocurrency for the purpose of “tokenizing infrastructure for the masses.” $RWAID is here to bring capital intensive infrastructure projects such as power generation, electric transmission and energy storage to individuals who desire to participate in the benefits of ownership of these assets but may not have been able to because of financial constraints.

AUSTIN, Texas, May 13, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — When the new RIDev token $RWAID presale begins it will be priced at 1 cent per token with a required minimum purchase of $500.00 (50,000 tokens). A total of 5 billion $RWAID tokens will be made available during the presale. Only 10 billion $RWAID tokens were minted. No additional $RWAID tokens will ever be minted. The presale is planned within the next 60 days. RIDev will announce the exact date in the near future. The $RWAID token can be found on Etherscan and the Uniswap exchange. We are also pursuing listings on other decentralized and centralized exchanges. Additional $RWAID token information can be found on the RIDev website: www.rwainfra.dev.

RIDev CEO Josh Case said, “We are looking forward to rolling out the $RWAID token to the masses, so anyone who desires to participate in the energy transition and expansion we are witnessing here in the U.S. is able to do so conveniently at an affordable entry point.”

The $RWAID token holders will have the opportunity to share in the yield created by the RWA’s tokenized. Yield is expected to be realized from operational project earnings, development fees, project sales or a combination of these sources. Yield will be distributed as rewards to $RWAID token holders with additional $RWAID tokens and/or stablecoins such as USDC, USDT, RLUSD or an equivalent.

“The tokenizing of real world assets is providing a more efficient and secure framework for the deployment of capital into capital intensive infrastructure projects. We are looking forward to leveraging those benefits for token holders through rewards such as additional tokens and stablecoins,” said Case.

Principles and advisors of RIDev have years of experience ranging from conventional power generation to renewable energy production. The $RWAID token will be allocated to projects in the United States using proven technologies with credit worthy off-take counterparties. The $RWAID token will participate directly and/or indirectly in projects as well as being the sole capital provider or a participant with other capital providers depending on the opportunity. The $RWAID token team will consider “shovel ready” projects, operational projects, projects under development and internal development of projects.

Individuals and entities interested in potential bulk purchases of $RWAID tokens can email us prior to the presale for more information.

RIDev company as well as $RWAID token updates will be posted on X.

This report outlines significant findings laid bare by Slotozilla’s year-long study.

Explosive Global Favorites: The Demo Slots That Dominated 2024

Clear regional preferences were brought to light during Slotozilla’s 2024 analysis, as Book of Ra dominated the European industry. Where’s the Gold represented Australia’s favourite slot, while Plinko, Wolf Run, and Sizzling Hot garnered significant attention from a worldwide player base.

Sizzling Hot Deluxe earned plaudits within the French gaming arena – attaining nearly one-quarter of the nation’s demo playtime. Industry developers and operators should expect these slots to influence the iGaming scene in 2025 and beyond.

Beyond the Numbers: Surprising Engagement and Demographic Shifts Revealed

The previous year detailed a clear shift towards all-encompassing domination by particular titles and demographics. For example, Columbus proved a major hit among USA bettors – racking up an average playtime of 194.8 minutes. That figure sits far ahead of the next game in line, King of Atlantis, which garnered 72.5 minutes per average session from French users.

Similar lob-sided statistics exist when comparing gender-based play, as male German players form 73.91% of the nation’s users—potentially guiding marketing efforts.

Modern Industry Impact

Data collected by SlotoZilla evidences various marked industry shifts spanning several key demographics. This report’s holistic view of the modern iGaming industry highlights the increasing necessity for targeted marketing campaigns, relevant themes, and boundary-pushing features.

Users located in Australia, Poland, and Canada are notable in this regard – as players from all three vital nations tend to access online slots from the age of 25 onward. Strategies around this data are central to maintaining a robust industry.
