ViewSonic Presents the 4th ColorPro Awards: “RISE” to New Heights in Photography and Videography
BREA, Calif., Aug. 15, 2023 /PRNewswire/ — ViewSonic Corp[i], a leading global provider of visual solutions, is thrilled to announce the launch of the 4th ColorPro Awards. A celebration of artistic expression and innovation, this year’s global visual arts competition takes the theme of “RISE,” inviting participants to soar to new creative heights as they capture their moments of transformation. This year’s edition widens its creative scope beyond photographs to embrace videos as well, offering new possibilities for creatives to express their vision. From August 15th to September 24th, 2023, participants can submit their entries to compete for prizes exceeding US$20,000 in value. Additionally, participants can take part in the Social Media Lucky Draw for a chance to win the ColorPro VP2756-2k monitor.
The theme “RISE” symbolizes transformative power, inviting participants to explore narratives of growth, achievement, empowerment, and resilience within. Whether conveyed through striking photographs or compelling videos, the theme offers artists a platform to captivate and inspire their audience with their visual storytelling. Notably, industry leaders SHOOTERS, PANTONE®, Capture One, Calibrite, and Shoot The Frame will collaborate, not only to host workshops and promotional activities during the Awards, but also as esteemed members of the judging panel.
“Last year, we achieved a remarkable breakthrough by transforming the ColorPro Awards into a global visual arts competition, welcoming more partners and creators into our vibrant global community,” stated Oscar Lin, General Manager of the Monitor Business Unit at ViewSonic. “As we venture into the 4th ColorPro Awards with the new theme ‘RISE’ and the introduction of the Videography category, we aim to inspire and empower creators worldwide to pursue their moments of transformation, urging them to explore uncharted territories and achieve their artistic ‘RISE.'”
Alongside the cash prize, winners will receive top-of-the-line ViewSonic ColorPro monitors, specially designed for creative professionals seeking true color accuracy and remarkable performance. Winners will also receive a suite of products and memberships designed to optimize their creative workflows. These include Capture One perpetual licenses, color management products courtesy of PANTONE® and Calibrite, and exclusive memberships from Shoot The Frame.
A distinguished panel of internationally acclaimed photographers and videographers will meticulously review the submissions, ensuring impartiality and acknowledging excellence in artistic expression. The submitted artwork will be evaluated by the panel considering its storytelling, aesthetics, creativity, relevance to the awards theme, and technical execution.
Amongst the panel are four ColorPro ambassadors and creators, invited to share their narratives of “RISE.” Luke Stackpoole captures the theme through awe-inspiring photography of natural wonders, as seen from his drone during his global explorations. Photographer Jack Harding associates the concept of “RISE” with a shoot in Madeira, Portugal. Following a four-day wait for clear weather, the sunshine ignited the clouds, painting the sky with stunning colors and casting a beautiful light over the landscape. Requiring patience, this precise moment marked the culmination of the shoot.
Filmmaker JustKay presents his unique perspective on rising against the odds and confronting the unknown. His compelling short film “Take a Leap of Faith” vividly captures the turning point of his life when he chose not to attend college, bravely abandoning the conventional path to pursue his dream wholeheartedly. Echoing the theme of “RISE,” filmmaker Alice Greenfield beautifully intertwines her love for swimming with her narrative. She conveys the solace she finds in the ocean – a rejuvenating space that clears her mind and empowers her to rise and face each day with renewed vigor.
ViewSonic ColorPro aims to inspire and encourage artistic growth worldwide. Through offering a platform for creators to share their unique visions, ColorPro provides a space for artistic expression to flourish. The ColorPro Awards stand as a testament to ViewSonic’s commitment to empowering creators and nurturing emerging talents in photography and videography.

Bitrue expands Bitcoin Runes Offerings with GPTV Listing and Staking Options
VICTORIA, Seychelles, May 3, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — Leading digital asset exchange Bitrue continues its community-driven approach with the listing of a new Bitcoin Runes token, GPTV•AI•PEPE•KING (GPTV). This follows the recent addition of several other Bitcoin Runes tokens to the platform, including SATOSHI•NAKAMOTO (SATOSHI), LOBO•THE•WOLF•PUP (LOBO), RSIC•GENESIS•RUNE (RSIC), and DOG•GO•TO•THE•MOON (DOG). Trading for the GPTV/USDT pair commenced on April 30th, 2024.
What is GPTV?
GPTV is the native token of AI PEPE KING, a project claiming to be the “largest AI Meme Community” with a presence on both the Polygon (AIPEPE) and Bitcoin Runes (GPTV) blockchains. Notably, AI PEPE KING secured a $10 million investment to develop AI-powered customer service tools leveraging the ChatGPT technology. Additionally, they are building a “Dream Lottery” system. Revenue generated from these products is earmarked for buybacks and burns of both AIPEPE and GPTV tokens, potentially influencing their long-term value.
Staking Opportunities with Attractive Yields
Bitrue is also offering users staking opportunities for those holding BTR, AIPEPE, RSIC, or DOG tokens. By staking their holdings, users can earn rewards in GPTV, with estimated annual percentage yield (APY) varying on the staked token, with BTR offering 22.15%, AIPEPE at 23.18%, RSIC boasting a higher 31.37%, and DOG coming in at 23.62%. These yields present a potentially lucrative opportunity for users to grow their cryptocurrency holdings, but also come with financial risk and the potential for investment to return much lower yields.
Bitrue’s Focus on Community Engagement
The listing of these Bitcoin Runes tokens is a testament to Bitrue’s commitment to its user base. The decision to add these tokens stemmed from a community poll conducted through an X poll on Bitrue’s X account. This highlights the exchange’s dedication to incorporating community feedback into its decision-making process, fostering a sense of collaboration and shared interest.
With the addition of GPTV and the introduction of staking opportunities, Bitrue continues to expand its offerings for users interested in the burgeoning world of Bitcoin Runes tokens. The exchange’s focus on community engagement further strengthens its position as a platform that prioritizes user input and satisfaction.

Hong Kong has entered the cryptocurrency ETF market with the debut of its first spot cryptocurrency exchange-traded funds (ETFs) on Tuesday, signaling the city’s ambition to compete with the US in the rapidly growing sector.
The launch, led by the Hong Kong units of three mainland Chinese asset managers — Bosera Asset Management, Harvest Global Investments, and China Asset Management — saw the introduction of two ETFs each tracking bitcoin and ether prices. Bosera’s funds were launched in collaboration with HashKey Capital.
On their debut, the three bitcoin ETFs closed between 1.5% and 1.8% higher, while the ether ETFs experienced slight losses of between 0.5% and 0.8%. Despite this, total trading turnover for all six ETFs, which included trading in US dollars, Hong Kong dollars, and renminbi, reached approximately HK$99.5 million (US$12.7 million). In comparison, US-based funds saw turnover exceeding $4 billion on their first trading day.
The move marks Hong Kong’s commitment to becoming a significant player in the cryptocurrency space, following its announcement in 2022 amid pandemic restrictions and increased Chinese oversight. Joseph Chan, Hong Kong’s under-secretary for financial services and the treasury, emphasized the city’s leading position in Asia’s crypto asset development during the ETF listing ceremony.
Prior to this, CSOP Asset Management had launched Hong Kong’s first bitcoin and ether futures ETFs in late 2022, following the publication of rules for spot ETFs by the Securities and Futures Commission in December.
In January, the US Securities and Exchange Commission approved the country’s first spot bitcoin ETFs, which have since attracted significant assets under management and net inflows. Robert Zhan, director of risk consulting at KPMG China, remains optimistic about the potential of the Hong Kong funds, despite current market sentiments and relatively flat prices of bitcoin and ether leading up to the launch.
The launch of crypto-linked funds by major Chinese asset managers has generated excitement within the industry, despite China’s strict cryptocurrency regulations. Donald Day, COO of Hong Kong-based digital asset exchange VDX, believes the new funds will cater to active investors unable or unwilling to trade during US hours.
