Glory Star expected to further increase profitability

Published

on

Glory Star New Media Group, a Nasdaq-listed digital media platform and content-driven e-commerce company in China, is expected to be able to further increase its profitability with its growing market share and economy of scale.

The company reported a 15.8% growth in its Non-GAAP net income to US$16.9 million for the six-months ended June 30 from US$14.6 million in the same period of last year.

During the first half of this year, the company’s total revenues grew 144.6% to US$71.9 million from US$29.4 million, thanks to the increase in advertising revenues and Cheers e-Mall marketplace service revenue, primarily attributable to the development and promotion of its mobile and online businesses.

Income from operations surged 40.9% to US$16.2 million from US$11.5 million.

During the first half year of 2021, the company successfully grew its top and bottom lines as it allocated more resources to sales and marketing to augment its brand equity and fuel its long-term growth engine.

The company’s rising economy of scale will allow it to gradually reduce operating expenses and capitalize on the rising popularity of video content and deliver lasting shareholder value.

At the end of June 30, the number of downloads of the company’s Cheers App reached 215.6 million, up from 121 million a year earlier. The increase in the number, a key indicator of the attractiveness and usability of its Cheers App and its e-Mall platform traffic, showed that it had successfully converted viewers of its content to its Cheers App.

Average daily active users (DAUs) of the app grew to 7.1 million from 4.5 million for the same period. Stock Keeping Units (SKUs) on its Cheers e-Mall platform jumped to 231,630 from 19,984.

Gross Merchandise Value (GMV) of the Cheers App reached US$181.2 million in the first six months of this year, compared with US$20 million in the same period of 2020. The increase in GMV was driven significantly by its ability to attract and retain users to its Cheers App through its professionally produced content and its ability to further enhance its product offerings.

The company has a strong commitment to its corporate mission, meticulous execution of growth strategies, methodical expansion in both overseas and domestic markets, proactive engagement of Generation Z users through innovative products, and prudent investment in sales and marketing initiatives. It plans to refine its competitive edge in content-driven e-commerce of premium lifestyle, deepen our expertise in integrating quality content with lifestyle commerce, and expand our brand influence among Generation Z consumers on a global basis.

During the first half year, the resurgence of Covid-19 and its Delta variant caused the Chinese government to impose travel restrictions within mainland China, particularly in the southern regions of the country.

The company temporarily suspended the production of its traditional “Cheers Series” TV programs, thus resulting in a decline in its cost of revenues during the first six month of 2021. Once the travel restrictions are eased, the company will resume its content production activities in the second half of this year.

As of June 30, 2021, the company had cash and cash equivalents of US$20.3 million, compared with US$17.7 million at the end of last year.

Blockchain and AI technologies

Since its establishment in 2016, Glory Star has pioneered a unique, new business model integrating e-commerce services with premium video content. With the use of blockchain and AI technologies in its systems, the company has become a leading online digital media and entertainment company in China, with a strong track record both in terms of viewership and production capabilities. The company launched its Cheers App in 2018 to integrate e-commerce services with professionally generated content (PGC).

During the first half, the company produced many more live streaming shows and started to provide title sponsor advertising services at a higher price point. It also spent substantially on the development of the Cheers Chat and Cheers Car.

The company plans to provide more user-generated content (UGC) by forming partnerships with other platforms. It will allow global users to upload their content to its video platforms in the fourth quarter of this year while users will receive advertising revenue or get rewards from viewers directly.

The company will also allow content providers to use its software-as-a-service (SaaS) supply chain system with the blockchain technology that will help them match with relevant merchandisers. Content providers will be able to share the revenue from the sales of products on their video accounts.

The company’s ability to integrate premium lifestyle content, including short videos, online variety shows, online dramas, live streaming, its Cheers lifestyle video series, e-Mall, and mobile app, along with innovative e-commerce offerings on its platform enables it to pursue its mission of enriching people’s lives.

Its large and active user base has created valuable engagement opportunities with consumers and enhanced platform stickiness with thousands of domestic and international brands.

Non-fungible token

Glory Star’s Naschain platform offers one-stop solutions, which include smart contract, multichain universe and cross-chain consensus mechanisms, to users with its blockchain technology. It can help e-shoppers trace the origins of the products, avoid buying counterfeit goods, lower their logistics costs and protect their privacy.

The company has signed an agreement with the Beijing Minsheng Art Museum to use the company’s non-fungible token (NFT) technology, which can be used in copy-rights’ registration, verification, transaction and valuation, to protect the intellectual property of the museum’s artworks. The company will be able to boost its market share by acquiring some NFT service providers.

Press Release

YouWare Launches YouBase to Support Full-Stack Application Development

Published

on

YouWare has announced the release of YouBase, a backend engine designed to support the deployment of web applications built via its platform. The new infrastructure includes authentication, database management, and global edge functions to facilitate full-stack application development.

Dover, Delaware, United States, 16th Jan 2026 – YouWare, YouWare, a platform for AI-assisted web development, has announced the launch of YouBase. This new backend-as-a-service (BaaS) infrastructure is designed to provide users with the technical components necessary to transition web prototypes into functional applications. By integrating backend capabilities directly into the development environment, the platform now supports full-stack execution, including hosting and custom domain integration.

Technical Features of YouBase

As AI-driven development has evolved, “vibe coding”—the process of using natural language to direct software creation—has empowered a new generation of creators. However, the move from a functional UI prototype to a live, secure business application has historically required complex manual configuration of servers, databases, and authentication protocols.

The launch of YouBase solves this “last mile” problem. By integrating a complete cloud backend directly into the YouWare environment, the platform enables small to medium-sized businesses (SMBs) and prosumers to launch professional-grade products without the need for traditional backend engineering or third-party hosting services.

YouBase: Technical Infrastructure for the Modern Creator

YouBase provides a suite of integrated cloud services designed to handle the server-side requirements of modern web applications. The infrastructure operates on a global edge network and includes the following core components:

  • Secure Authentication: Enables sign-up, login, and role-based permissions, allowing SMBs to manage teams and customer access with enterprise-grade security.
  • Structured Databases: Provides a reliable system to store and manage the data businesses depend on—from order histories and user profiles to complex analytics—with built-in data protection.
  • Global Edge Functions: Executes server-side logic globally with low latency. This ensures that workflows, such as form validation or automated routing, remain fast and responsive for users regardless of their location.
  • Media & File Storage: Optimized for media-heavy applications, allowing for the high-speed delivery of images, videos, and documents essential for digital catalogs and portfolios.
  • Encrypted Secrets Management: Offers secure storage for API keys and sensitive configurations, ensuring that credentials remain protected and never exposed to the client-side code.
  • Payments Integration: To support revenue generation, YouBase features native integration with Stripe, enabling users to accept payments for products, subscriptions, and memberships directly.

Streamlining the Development Lifecycle

The introduction of YouBase aims to reduce the technical complexity typically associated with configuring servers, databases, and security protocols. By providing a pre-configured backend environment, the platform allows developers and small businesses to deploy applications without managing separate infrastructure providers.

“The goal of YouBase is to provide a stable and predictable technical foundation for projects built on our platform,” said Leon Ming, CEO of YouWare. “By integrating these essential backend services, we are enabling users to focus on the functional aspects of their applications while the infrastructure handles the underlying complexity.”

About YouWare Inc

YouWare Inc is a software company that develops AI-driven tools for web creation. The company’s platform allows users to build and deploy web applications through natural language interfaces. YouWare Inc focuses on reducing the technical barriers to building websites, web app or internal tools development for independent creators and small-to-medium businesses.

Galidix Showcases Innovation to French Investors Amid Rising Demand for Next-Gen Solutions

Published

on

Galidix, a cryptocurrency trading platform operating within the global digital asset ecosystem, continues to strengthen its market presence as interest in next-generation financial solutions grows among French investors. As France remains a key European center for financial innovation and regulated digital finance, the company is positioning its platform to align with the expectations of investors seeking advanced, technology-driven trading infrastructure.

Galidix Showcases Innovation to French Investors Amid Rising Demand for Next-Gen Solutions

The French investment landscape has shown increasing engagement with digital assets, driven by broader adoption of blockchain technologies and a demand for platforms that balance innovation with operational discipline. Galidix’s platform development strategy reflects these priorities by focusing on system reliability, data security, and performance consistency. These elements are increasingly important as investors evaluate crypto trading environments through the lens of long-term sustainability rather than short-term market activity.

One of the defining characteristics of Galidix is its emphasis on platform architecture designed to support efficient trade execution across a range of digital assets. Market volatility has highlighted the importance of stable infrastructure capable of maintaining performance during periods of increased trading volume. Within this context, publicly available Galidix reviews frequently reference execution efficiency and system availability as important factors shaping user confidence and platform credibility.

Security remains a central consideration for investors operating in the digital asset space, particularly within regulated European markets. Galidix incorporates multiple layers of protective measures intended to safeguard user information and transactional integrity. These measures reflect a broader industry shift toward risk-aware platform design and responsible asset management. Observations found in Galidix reviews often emphasize the importance of structured security practices as part of the overall user experience.

In parallel with technological development, Galidix maintains a focus on internal operational standards that align with evolving regulatory expectations. While cryptocurrency regulation continues to differ across jurisdictions, European investors increasingly favor platforms that demonstrate awareness of compliance frameworks and governance principles. This focus contributes to the platform’s reputation for stability, a theme that is commonly associated with Galidix reviews in discussions of trust and long-term platform viability.

User experience design has also become a differentiating factor in the increasingly competitive crypto trading market. Galidix has prioritized interface clarity and functional accessibility, recognizing the diverse experience levels of digital asset traders. The platform’s layout and feature structure are intended to reduce unnecessary complexity while preserving analytical depth. Feedback trends reflected in Galidix reviews frequently point to usability and platform navigation as key components of overall satisfaction.

French investors, in particular, are showing heightened interest in data-driven trading environments that provide timely market insights and responsive execution tools. Galidix’s technology framework supports real-time data processing and adaptive performance, enabling users to interact with markets efficiently as conditions evolve. This technological orientation aligns with broader expectations for next-generation trading platforms and is often highlighted in Galidix reviews as an indicator of platform readiness for future market developments.

Beyond technical performance, Galidix emphasizes transparency in platform functionality and operational processes. In an industry where clarity and information accessibility play a significant role in investor decision-making, the company maintains a structured approach to platform communication and system design. This emphasis supports informed participation and reflects a commitment to responsible platform management within the digital asset ecosystem.

As the cryptocurrency sector continues to mature, investor attention has shifted toward platforms that demonstrate consistency, resilience, and measured growth strategies. Galidix’s positioning within the French market reflects this shift, focusing on infrastructure quality and operational integrity rather than promotional messaging. The platform’s development roadmap prioritizes stability and scalability, supporting its relevance in an evolving financial environment.

The broader adoption of digital assets across Europe underscores the importance of platforms capable of adapting to changing market dynamics while maintaining reliable performance standards. Galidix’s continued engagement with innovation-driven investors in France highlights its alignment with these expectations and its role within the expanding digital finance landscape.

By maintaining a focus on technological robustness, security-conscious design, and user-centered functionality, Galidix continues to build its presence among investors seeking next-generation trading solutions. This balanced approach reinforces the platform’s position within the European cryptocurrency market as digital finance continues to integrate with established investment practices.
