PANews reported on December 31 that, according to The Block, Prenetics Global, a health supplement brand invested in by football legend David Beckham, has cancelled its plan to accumulate Bitcoin less than three months after raising $48 million to build a cryptocurrency reserve. The company announced on Tuesday that it will no longer pursue its Bitcoin acquisition strategy and will instead "fully capitalize on the rapid growth opportunities of its consumer health brand IM8."
In October, the Nasdaq-listed company raised $48 million in an oversubscribed equity financing round to accelerate its Bitcoin reserve strategy and expand its health supplement brand IM8. Besides Beckham, other investors included Kraken, Exodus, GPTX, DL Holdings, and American Ventures. Prenetics Global currently holds 510 bitcoins and over $70 million in cash and cash equivalents.

The post Live Nation CEO says demand is unmistakable, concert tickets are underpriced appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Live Nation CEO Michael Rapino and Smith Entertainment Group CEO Ryan Smith said this week live events are more central than ever to culture and commerce in a post-pandemic world. The executives spoke at CNBC Sport and Boardroom’s Game Plan conference on Tuesday, saying the demand for in-person events has been unmistakable. “No matter what you bring to that table that day, you unite around that one shared experience,” Rapino said. “For those two hours, I tend to drop whatever baggage I have and have a shared moment.” According to Goldman Sachs, the live music industry is expected to grow at a 7.2% compounded annual rate through 2030, fueled by millennials and Gen Z. Smith bought the Utah Jazz in 2020 and launched a new NHL franchise in the state in 2024. “In sports, we’re really media companies,” Smith said. “We’ve got talent, we’ve got distribution. We’re putting on a show or a wedding or something every night.” Get the CNBC Sport newsletter directly to your inbox The CNBC Sport newsletter with Alex Sherman brings you the biggest news and exclusive interviews from the worlds of sports business and media, delivered weekly to your inbox.

With streaming revenue dwarfed by touring income, live shows have become one of artists’ primary sources of revenue. “The artist is going to make 98% of their money from the show,” he said. “We just did Beyonce’s tour. She’s got 62 transport trucks outside. That’s a Super Bowl she’s putting on every night.” Despite headlines about rising ticket prices, Rapino argued that concerts are still underpriced compared to sporting events. “In sports, I joke it’s like a badge of honor to spend 70 grand for Knicks courtside,” Rapino said.…
