Dear DelNorte Supporters and Investors,

                The launch of the new DTV Token will take place in Q4-2024.  We are excited to launch and host our native token on the TON Network under the DTV ticker.  "The Open Network" (TON), founded by the creators of Telegram (similar to Whatsapp), gives DelNorte the best in performance and scalability.  The Ton Network / Telegram has exposure to 3.2 million community members per month and we intend on capturing some of these members for DelNorte. We are working with some advisors to TON as well as developers who build their system.  

  • Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ): 

    • Is the Ton Network reliable? Yes. There are approximately 3.2 million monthly active users making the Ton Network their choice.

    • Are my original DTV tokens, issued years ago, useful? They are not useful and not interchangeable with the new token.  

    • What should I do with my original DTV tokens?  You can delete the account on which you've received those tokens if you wish. 

    • How many new DTV tokens will I receive?  You will receive ten percent (10%) of your full amount. 

    • What is the distribution schedule for my tokens? You will receive ten percent prior to our token launch. Once launched, there will be a 180 day freeze period. On the 181st day, your remaining tokens will be unlocked and distributed accordingly every 30 days for a period of 2 years. 

    • Why did DelNorte decide on a distribution schedule versus receiving all my tokens at once? A distribution schedule ensures the token will grow in value over these next 24 months by preventing the markets from being diluted quickly. For more info; read our Tokenomics: delnorte.io/about.html

    • How do I receive my initial ten percent? Follow the instructions here: https://delnorte.io/suppdtvt0k3n.html

    • Carefully save your 24 keywords when creating your Ton Wallet.  DelNorte will not reissue tokens if you lose your keywords.   

    • After completing all the steps in the link above, DelNorte will send you, one (1) DTV token as a test.  Once we confirm via email that you received this "test" token, we will distribute the rest.  

    • When will the Company officially launch on a crypto exchange?  We will keep everyone posted via email and all chat rooms (Whatsapp & Telegram). 

    • How long do I have to complete this process? By September 10rd, 2024. 

    • What is the value of each token? The current value is $0.03

    • At what price will the company launch the token? Tentatively at 0.04 - 0.05 based on today's valuation.

Crypto Surge: Bitcoin Hits $60.5K, Trump’s $3M Crypto Stash & More!

Cryptocurrency Update: Cryptocurrency prices surged on Tuesday morning as Bitcoin climbed back above $60,500 for the first time in nearly two weeks. Meanwhile, spot Bitcoin ETFs saw significant inflows of $62.1 million on August 19, marking their highest daily inflows since August 8, according to Farside Investors.

In related news, recent campaign filings revealed that former President Donald Trump holds over $3 million in various cryptocurrencies and has earned millions from his line of non-fungible tokens (NFTs).

At the start of August, Coinbase (COIN) reported strong Q2 revenue, driven by a substantial increase in trading volume and transaction revenue.

Additionally, spot Ethereum ETFs began trading on July 23 after receiving approval from the SEC. Cryptocurrency prices also saw an uptick at the beginning of the month following President Trump's nomination of crypto-friendly Senator J.D. Vance (R-Ohio) as his vice-presidential running mate.

AI Growth Outpacing Security Measures: Are We Ready?

While the industry recognizes the necessity of robust security measures, research from PSA Certified indicates that investment and best practices are struggling to keep up with the rapid growth of AI.

A survey of 1,260 global technology decision-makers revealed that 68% are concerned that AI advancements are outpacing the industry's ability to protect products, devices, and services. This concern is driving an increase in edge computing adoption, with 85% believing that security issues will push more AI applications to the edge.

Edge computing, which processes data locally on devices rather than relying on centralized cloud systems, offers significant benefits in terms of efficiency, security, and privacy. However, this shift to edge computing requires an increased focus on device security.

“There is a crucial link between AI and security: one cannot scale without the other,” warns David Maidment, Senior Director of Market Strategy at Arm, a PSA Certified co-founder. “While AI presents tremendous opportunities, it also creates significant risks for bad actors.”

Despite acknowledging the importance of security, there is a noticeable gap between awareness and action. Only 50% of those surveyed believe their current security investments are adequate. Additionally, key security practices, such as independent certifications and threat modeling, are being overlooked by many respondents.

“It’s more critical than ever for those in the connected device ecosystem to not overlook best security practices in the rush to implement AI features,” emphasizes Maidment. “The entire value chain must take collective responsibility to ensure that consumer trust in AI-driven services is maintained.”

The report underscores the need for a comprehensive approach to security, integrated throughout the entire AI lifecycle, from device deployment to managing AI models at the edge. A proactive strategy, incorporating security-by-design principles, is considered essential for building consumer trust and mitigating growing security risks.

Despite these concerns, there is a sense of optimism within the industry. A majority (67%) of decision-makers believe their organizations are prepared to manage the potential security risks associated with AI’s growth. There is also a growing recognition of the need to prioritize security investment, with 46% focusing on strengthening security compared to 39% prioritizing AI readiness.

“Those looking to fully realize AI's potential must ensure they are taking the necessary steps to mitigate potential security risks,” says Maidment. “As stakeholders in the connected device ecosystem rapidly adopt new AI-enabled use cases, it’s crucial that they do not advance AI at the expense of security.”

Thank you for reading.
