This memecoin could be set up for immense success in 2025. One of the most unique projects to launch on the most valuable blockchain in the world, Bitcoin, has a ton of tailwinds behind it. Fair launch, no VCs, no KOLs dumping on you, and the undisputed leader of memes on $BTC.

Jon Jordan and BlockchainGamer.biz editor Jenny Jordan discuss all the news from 2024. [2:16] The success of Pixels was an ongoing trend in 2024; but it wasn't always about DAUWs. [2:35] Heroes of Mavia was the first big game and token launch of 2024 but it didn't scale. [4:10] In 2024, we saw a lot of blockchain games launching through app stores but no big hits. [6:10] Browser vs app stores and PC gaming stores remains a key business decision. [8:44] A lot of meme-y game coins such as MON, PORTAL, CARV, XAI launched in Q1. [11:30] There was a lot of news about chain migration - so many new L2 and L3 chains. [13:00] In Q2, there was a big change in sentiment with game token prices tanking. [14:11] The rise of KOLs, who encouraged retail crypto to invest in new tokens with often bad results. [16:05] The rise of Telegram and TON as a strong marketing channel for blockchain games. [17:46] Another nascent year for Immutable: Guild of Guardians was not a success. [22:17] But in Immutable's defence... 4 million Immutable Passport wallet sign-ups. [28:28] In Q3, the issue of bots became a problem esp. in respect to airdrops and token rewards. [30:09] What are you trying to do with your blockchain game when it comes to giving out value? [32:04] Does it matter if bots or AI agents are paying $10 to play your game? [32:30] The other thing in Q3 was the start of successful games on Ronin - Wild Forest, Lumiterra etc. [34:56] Pretty much every game launched on Ronin has got +100,000 DAUWs in testing. [37:19] Should we view console game Off The Grid as a success? [44:22] Whatever happened to The Sandbox? [45:25] CCP Game's EVE Frontier is now in closed alpha testing. [46:59] What's significant is these projects are very serious about the value of blockchain in games. [49:45] More generally, the US presidential election was the clear pivot point for crypto in 2024. [52:51] Investment into the sector was down on 2023 but around $1 billion.

A PubMed search on the day this was written finds 36,735 new publications in the last 24 hours. Adding the word “oncology” narrows the number to 4,334. Substituting “lung cancer” for “oncology” results in 534 articles. How many of these do you think your HCPs and KOLs will be able to read before the next batch of publications comes out tomorrow? This is to say that publishing a scientific study or article can feel like squeezing an eyedropper into the ocean and it is the job of the publication's team to ensure this drop-in-the-ocean has impact — especially when publishing a study with the potential to change clinical practice. Here we learn practical tips straight from the source – namely, experts at Wiley. How can you translate peer-reviewed publications to clinical impact? How can licensing extend (or perhaps restrict…) the reach of published research? How can publications be leveraged as the hub of an omnichannel approach? Listen to learn more.

Welcome to the Health Marketing Collective, where strong leadership meets marketing excellence. On today's episode, Julia Steele Rodriguez is joining us to talk about Key Opinion Leader (KOL) programs and their indispensable role in healthcare marketing. Julia is an industry leader with a background leading diverse teams in marketing, operations, revenue cycle, and clinical education, and she's bringing us her insights on the impacts that KOL partnerships can have on health marketing strategies. Our conversation focuses on the fundamental aspects of building and sustaining effective KOL programs. We explore best practices for identifying the right KOLs, fostering long-term and mutually beneficial relationships, and the critical nuances often overlooked in these partnerships. Julia also offers her insights into the marketing advantages of robust KOL programs, spotlighting how they can transform healthcare initiatives and enhance brand trust. In addition, Julia shares her perspective on handling common challenges in KOL relationships, the importance of clear communication, and how to measure the success of such programs using the right KPIs. Her holistic approach and emphasis on human connections provide valuable lessons for anyone looking to leverage KOLs to drive healthcare marketing success. Thank you for being part of the Health Marketing Collective, where strong leadership meets marketing excellence. The future of healthcare depends on it. Key Takeaways: 1. Clear Definitions and Expectations: Julia emphasized the importance of having a shared understanding of what constitutes a KOL within the organization. This clarity helps align objectives and ensures that everyone involved is on the same page. It's vital to have a mutual understanding with KOLs themselves to foster an effective and productive relationship from the start. 2. Strategic Identification and Engagement: Identifying the right KOLs involves a mix of objective data and subjective measures. Julia suggests looking at publications, conference participation, and leadership roles in professional societies. Additionally, engaging with KOLs in their natural environments, such as conferences, can provide deeper insights into their fit and potential for partnership. 3. Fostering Long-Term Relationships: Building long-term relationships with KOLs requires mutual benefit and respect. Julia notes that understanding what KOLs want to gain from the partnership, beyond financial compensation, is crucial. Many KOLs seek to influence market developments and innovation, and providing them with insider insights and involvement opportunities can strengthen the relationship. 4. Internal Alignment and Communication: Internal consistency in dealing with KOLs, from contracting to invoicing to regular updates, is critical to maintaining smooth and effective collaborations. Missteps in these areas can lead to frustration and disengagement. Julia highlighted the importance of trust and proactive communication to keep KOLs engaged and valued. 5. Measuring Success: Success in KOL programs isn't just about immediate ROI but also about long-term impacts on healthcare outcomes and organizational credibility. Julia points to anecdotal evidence, changes in market sentiment, share of voice in industry conversations, and the overall influence KOLs bring to marketing strategies and product adoption as key indicators of a program's effectiveness.
