  • Veax Labs Officially Launches Advanced NEAR-Based DEX on Mainnet, Introduces Major LP Incentive Program

    Veax Labs Officially Launches Advanced NEAR-Based DEX on Mainnet, Introduces Major LP Incentive Program

    Schwarzenbach, Switzerland, April 27th, 2023, Chainwire

    Veax Labs has officially launched its advanced decentralized exchange (DEX) on mainnet. Built on NEAR Protocol, the platform aims to seamlessly bridge features commonly found in the traditional finance (TradFi) with that of the decentralized finance (DeFi) market. Together with the launch of the platform’s mainnet, it has introduced the Veax Liquidity Provider (LP) Incentive Program, a unique opportunity to reward community members who commit liquidity to the platform, further accelerating its growth.

    Building On A Successful Testnet

    Since the platform’s public testnet launched in late January, over 12,230 users accessed the platform, creating over 120,000 liquidity positions and generating nearly 2 million native NEAR testnet transactions. Following the success of the platform’s public testnet, the team has developed a unique trading experience for the NEAR ecosystem, building on feedback received and implemented during the testnet phase.

    “We have set out to develop a platform that will greatly enhance the trading experience on NEAR. Although some of our more advanced features are still under development, we are confident that the NEAR community will enjoy some of the features that will be available upon launch. One of the key features that users will be able to try out is our flexible fee levels which will optimize the trading experience for both regular traders and liquidity providers,” said James Davies, Chief Product Officer at Veax Labs.

    “Our public testnet has proven to be highly successful, and we have received a lot of positive feedback from both our users and partners alike. We look forward to seeing the same reception on the mainnet. We have a lot of exciting developments planned, including the launch of LP Incentive Program, the continuation of our Veax Points program and the launch of our native $VEAX token in the near future,” said Marie Tatibouet, Chief Marketing Officer at Veax Labs.

    “We’re very impressed with the activity Veax testnet has generated and we’re looking forward to the release live at Consensus” – Kendall Cole at Proximity Labs

    Introducing The Veax LP Incentive Program

    The Veax LP Incentive Program will allocate 25% of all $VEAX tokens, amounting to a total of 2,500,000 tokens, to reward early liquidity providers in the Veax ecosystem. The 7-month long program will run from the launch of the mainnet through the token generation event (TGE) until the end of the year. The TGE is expected to occur two months after the mainnet launch, with rewards accruing immediately and payable one month after the TGE takes place. To incentivize continued support, tokens earned will be locked for two months after they are earned. The incentive pool is designed to triple or even quadruple earnings generated from exchange pools.

    About Veax

    Veax was developed by Tacans Labs, the DeFi builder arm of Tacans AG, a Swiss-based Web3 venture builder and investor. In November 2022, Veax Labs raised $1.2 million in pre-seed funding from a series of prominent investors including Circle Ventures, Proximity Labs, and Outlier Ventures, together with Tacans Labs, Qredo, Skynet Trading, Seier Capital, and Widjaja Family.

  • OKX and Manchester City Launch Interactive Avatar Campaign Featuring Top Players to Inspire Fans to “Play For the City”

    OKX and Manchester City Launch Interactive Avatar Campaign Featuring Top Players to Inspire Fans to “Play For the City”

    MANCHESTER, UK, April 26th, 2023, Chainwire

    ●    Augmented reality and avatar experience “playforthecity.com” allows fans to create custom avatars that can be used in over 4,000 games and apps

    ●    Multi-channel campaign kicks off ahead of Manchester City vs Arsenal on 26th April

     OKX, a world-leading Web3 technology company and Training Kit Partner of Manchester City, have today kicked off a new interactive metaverse avatar campaign with the Club. The new experience at playforthecity.com gives fans the opportunity to personalise their own digital avatars in Manchester City training kits and pre-match warm-up apparel with OKX branding.

    To mark the kick-off, a hero video featuring top Manchester City players as giant avatars exploring Manchester as fans make their way to the stadium will be debuted in a multi-channel campaign during Manchester City’s home clash with fellow Premier League title contenders Arsenal. The video will announce the new experience and inspire fans to “Play for the City” and get their own personalised digital avatars in the Manchester City x OKX kit.

    Playforthecity.com allows fans to create their own bespoke avatars in seconds, giving them the ability to use their new avatars across 4,000 metaverse games and apps. By sharing their avatars on social media using #playforthecity fans are also entered into a prize draw for a chance to win epic Man City and OKX prizes.

    Haider Rafique, Global Chief Marketing Officer, OKX, said: “The metaverse experiences we’ve been developing with Manchester City represent a whole world of exciting new opportunities, and your avatar grants you access to these. This campaign is another example of how Manchester City and OKX are delivering on the promise of Web3 to enhance the fan experience and help people get closer to what OKX considers ‘a new way to internet’.”

    Gavin Johnson, Media Director at City Football Group, said: “We’re pleased to launch this exciting campaign with OKX and Yahoo today. Bringing together expertise from all three collaborators, we’re able to offer Manchester City fans across the world the ability to connect and engage with the club in a unique and interesting new way and we hope fans enjoy the experience on offer.”

    The experience was created by Manchester City and OKX in collaboration with Yahoo, which utilised its premium content creation team and technology to bring the experience to life and spread the word to fans. Working with the Ready Player Me platform to build the bespoke AR and avatar experience, Yahoo created the hero video and will distribute the content through digital Out of Home (DOOH) locations as well as video, display and native formats across mobile, tablet and TV screens to inspire Manchester City fans to try it for themselves.

    Josh Partridge, Head of EMEA at Yahoo, said: “We had a clear brief – to offer fans a fun, engaging and immersive experience that gives them new ways to interact with the team and players through digital touchpoints in the stadium, the city, and even the virtual world. Using Yahoo’s experience in producing premium quality digital content and distributing it at scale directly to the club’s target audience means we can help in forging deeper connections on digital platforms with their fans through new, interactive ways on match day and beyond.”

    This is the latest Metaverse experience brought to fans by OKX and Manchester City following the launch of a training course with Rúben Dias and a tactical masterclass with İlkay Gündoğan in the OKX Collective metaverse. May will see fans invited into the metaverse for exclusive experiences with Jack Grealish and Alex Greenwood.

  • BitClout 2.0 Announced as Next Stock Market for People

    BitClout 2.0 Announced as Next Stock Market for People

    Los Angeles, USA, April 26th, 2023, Chainwire

    Today, an exciting announcement was made on decentralized social app Diamond that Bitclout 2.0, the highly-anticipated follow-up to 2021’s viral sensation that took the crypto world by storm, has been revealed by the infamous @diamondhands.

    Bitclout 2.0 aims to build upon the success of the original by introducing several new products and features, effectively turning reputation into an asset class on par with what NFTs are today.

    BitClout 2.0 is expected to launch with a sophisticated airdrop after the DeSo blockchain’s transition to its new Revolution Proof of Stake consensus mechanism is complete. The white paper for BitClout 2.0 can be accessed at bitclout2.deso.com, and the password can be obtained by sending a DM to @bitclout on any DeSo app like Diamond or DeSo Chat Protocol.

    Bootstrapping A Stock Market for People

    One of the most groundbreaking new products BitClout 2.0 introduces is Creator Coins V2, a reimagined version of the original trading product that sparked thousands of celebrities and influencers to join the platform.

    Creator Coins are a new type of asset class introduced by BitClout 1.0 that are tied to the reputation of an individual rather than to a company or commodity, and Creator Coins allow creators, celebrities, influencers, and everyday users to monetize their work in ways never before possible in web2.

    Since Creator Coins track the reputation of an individual, if Elon Musk successfully lands the first person on Mars or alternatively go bankrupt, it will affect the price of his Creator Coin.

    Creator Coins V2 are fully backward compatible with V1, allowing users to transfer over seamlessly, and will be tradeable on DeSo DEX, the world’s fastest on-chain order-book exchange (showcased by Openfund).

    Trading activity on BitClout 2.0 will be incentivized with a new $BITCLOUT token, allowing people to accrue fees through Creator Coin V2 trading activity.

    Bitclout 2.0 will reward early adopters through a sophisticated and viral airdrop scheme that takes inspiration from both BitClout 1.0 and from NFT marketplace Blur. BitClout 2.0’s airdrop mechanics will not only drive trading liquidity but also “content liquidity” by compensating the most active creators on the platform.

    Creators who post regularly and engage the community will also earn $BITCLOUT tokens through airdrops, adding an innovative new incentive structure for creators never seen on other platforms.

    People interested in participating in the $BITCLOUT airdrop can start familiarizing themselves with DeSo apps like Diamond, Openfund, Desofy, or DeSocialWorld, and many more listed on deso.com, before the launch.

    BitClout 2.0 will be built on the Decentralized Social Blockchain. According to the BitClout 2.0 white paper, “DeSo is the only blockchain that can support the storage and indexing requirements needed for a decentralized social platform like BitClout 2.0.” This is thanks to DeSo’s vastly-superior content storage costs, which make it finally feasible for apps to extend beyond DeFi to storage-intensive social applications, and much more.

    The History of BitClout

    In March of 2021, a mysterious password-protected link began to go viral.

    The link allowed users to access a new app called BitClout, created by the pseudonymous founder known as @diamondhands. What started as just a white paper and an associated demo quickly evolved into an addictive worldwide phenomenon, thanks to BitClout’s introduction of a novel new concept known as Creator Coins.

    BitClout and its concept of Creator Coins were initially so viral and engaging that the early prototype alone attracted organic signups from hundreds of influencers and celebrities. 

    It also spawned numerous articles about its burgeoning “stock market for people,” including a long-form piece in the New Yorker.

    The Next Great Decentralized Social Application

    

    With the launch of Bitclout 2.0, the true power and capabilities of the DeSo Blockchain will be on full display for the world to see.

    Already one of the fastest and cheapest layer-1 blockchains on the market, DeSo’s move to Proof of Stake is likely to cement DeSo’s status as the industry leader for developers wanting to build storage-intensive infinite-state applications.

    Once completed, DeSo will inch closer to its final form, “The Sovereign Internet” featuring a “Decentralized Web,” enabling developers to deploy censorship-resistant storage-intensive applications at scale from anywhere in the world.

    Bitclout 2.0 will likely be the first example of what can be built on DeSo post-Proof of Stake, but it won’t be the last. 

    Currently, other proposals are circulating, including Bitfair, the first crypto-native sports betting app, and Pseudo, the first decentralized identity marketplace. 

    Learn more about the DeSo roadmap and what’s next here.

    About Deso

    DeSo is a new layer-1 blockchain built from the ground up to decentralize social media and scale storage-heavy applications to billions of users. It raised $200 million and is backed by Sequoia, Andreessen Horowitz, Coinbase Ventures, Social Capital, Polychain Capital, Winklevoss Capital, Pantera, and other blue chip funds.

  • Keiji Inafune and Seiichi Ishii with Minnapad for New Web3 Projects

    Keiji Inafune and Seiichi Ishii with Minnapad for New Web3 Projects

    Singapore, Singapore, April 12th, 2023, Chainwire

    Famed Developers of Iconic Game Franchises, Mega Man and Tekken to Serve as Inaugural Legends DAO Partners with Their Original IPs, BEASTROID and BRAIN FIGHTER, on a New Platform

    Minnapad, a create-to-earn DAO launchpad and NFT marketplace that provides access to renowned Japanese creators, announced the first two DAOs in a series planned for this year. The inaugural kick-off will be in partnership with two game creators, allowing fans to collaboratively create legendary DAO projects and have ownership of exciting new IPs from their respective heroes. The first DAO will be in partnership with Keiji Inafune, and debut the new IP BEASTROID in video games, comics, anime and physical mediums, in addition to NFT collections. Minnapad will then launch BRAIN FIGHTER, an IP with warriors controlled with brain waves, with Seiichi Ishii who pioneered the 3D fighting game genre through his work on Tekken and Virtua Fighter. Both are scheduled for Q2 2023.

    Mr. Inafune is best known for giving the Mega Man franchise its distinctive visual style and producing several titles during his tenure at Capcom. Mr. Inafune is utilizing his love of creating new IP to fuel his new project. Mr. Inafune’s DAO aims to offer original characters built around a compelling post-apocalyptic world where humans fight for survival. Mechanized animal creatures called “BEASTROID” are humanity’s only hope to reach a safe haven called Paradise. Minnapad and Mr. Inafune have partnered to breathe new life into the initial BEASTROID NFT collection, inviting existing holders to the DAO membership presale and providing utility in the Minnapad ecosystem in the near future. More information about the presale will be shared soon.

    “Minnapad is doing something new with Japanese content, bringing together the power of many opinions united as one,” said Keiji Inafune, creator of BEASTROID. “It is the perfect platform for BEASTROID to come to life. It’s not simply a game, but we will keep developing it in different ways, together with fellow DAO members. In addition to BEASTROID, I have high hopes many new IPs will be born from this DAO.”

    Keiji Inafune interview

    BRAIN FIGHTER is the brainchild of Mr. Ishii, the visionary designer who laid the foundation for modern fighting games through his works including multiple Tekken and Tobal titles, and as co-creator of Virtua Fighter. Mr. Ishii brings his traditional fighting game legacy to a fresh new platform with his next original IP. In this world, small robots called Brain Fighters controlled by people’s brain waves are all the rage. Each person becomes the protagonist of this world, controlling their own Brain Fighters, and battle against others in a tag team style for victory.

    “I’ve been yearning to collaborate with a group of like-minded individuals and enjoy the process of creating games together once again,” said Seiichi Ishii, creator of BRAIN FIGHTER. “The emergence of Web3 and DAO got me excited about the possibility of taking on projects in a different way than before. The BRAIN FIGHTER IP I have envisioned is something that I could never achieve alone, so I hope to work with the Minnapad community — which we call ‘Minna-san’ — to create a truly special new IP using new technology.”

    Seiichi Ishii interview

    The partnerships with Mr. Inafune and Mr. Ishii kick off Minnapad’s efforts to become the premier platform connecting everyday fans of Japanese content to legendary Japanese creators, coined “Legends.” The nature of the DAO gives its members intimate access and voting power into the creation of the BEASTROID and BRAIN FIGHTER IPs, and the direction the IP takes, giving equal voice to fans, publishers and creators alike.

    “Minnapad’s primary goal is always to bring celebrated Japanese IPs to the web3 space. Who better to kick off our platform than with two such giants in the Japanese gaming industry,” said Tatsuya Nishioka, Minnapad founder and chief executive officer. “I had the honor of working on Marvelous with Mr. Inafune in 2011, and a mutual friend who worked on Tekken introduced me to Mr. Ishii. Together with the Minnapad community, I am confident we are going to create amazing new IPs together.”

    The respective launches of BEASTROID and BRAIN FIGHTER are just the beginning of what’s to come from Minnapad. As the Minnapad community continues to grow and expand, the company is exploring additional DAOs in the video game and anime spaces. More details about Episode 1 with collections from Legends Mr. Inafune and Mr. Ishii, and upcoming new partnerships will be announced in the coming months.

    ABOUT Minnapad

Through the use of blockchain technology, users can now collaborate with their favorite Legends and work on distributed projects which offer decentralized forms of participation for new IP ownership.

  • Flow Secures $3M Seed Funding To Build A Rollup Centric NFT Ecosystem.

    Flow Secures $3M Seed Funding To Build A Rollup Centric NFT Ecosystem.

    San Francisco, United States, April 21st, 2023, Chainwire

    Introducing Flow: The Game-Changing NFT Ecosystem Set to Revolutionize the NFT Market. Aggregator Beta Launches on Ethereum Mainnet. Groundbreaking AI and Rollup-Centric Roadmap Unveiled; Anticipated Token Launch on April 30.

    Flow’s aggregator makes NFT bidding a breeze with their groundbreaking “place bid once, buy from everywhere” technology. Flow’s powerful order matching and execution engines provide users a great UX while protecting them from frontrunners and unnecessary gas fees by routing transactions via Flashbots. With a $3M seed funding round led by Nima Capital and participation from Shima Capital and other industry heavyweights, Flow is poised to take the NFT world by storm. 

    “Flow is a great example of what people can build on top of Reservoir which aggregates liquidity from all marketplaces” said Peter Watts, founder of Reservoir.

    Developed by a team led by an ex-Googler and ex-Binance Labs incubee, Flow will soon integrate AI into its platform such as LLM-based NFT analytics solutions, cutting-edge agents to automate trading and tools for the community to create and deploy NFTs. The developers’ smart contracts already support the seamless automation of NFT trading actions.

    As the blockchain world moves towards a modular, plug-and-play approach, Flow is perfectly positioned to create a modular NFT ecosystem.

    “We are entering a modular world where execution environments, data availability, consensus and transaction sequencing are moving towards a plug-and-play model. NFT platforms built on this modular stack can leverage shared security from an underlying L1 while building fast, low cost NFT trading infrastructure and creator tooling.

    MOOI Network Lists on MEXC, Increasing Accessibility for its Ecosystem

    Singapore, Singapore, April 21st, 2023, Chainwire

    MOOI Network, the blockchain ecosystem designed for game projects, is thrilled to announce the listing of its governance token, $MOOI, on MEXC Global, a prominent cryptocurrency exchange. The listing is scheduled for April 25 at 10:00 UTC and reflects MOOI Network’s commitment to lowering barriers for new users and providing accessible options for engagement within its ecosystem.

    Company Background

    MOOI Network was created by POST VOYAGER, a subsidiary of Cocone, a Japan-based avatar styling & gaming social app developer with users across 74 countries. Over the past 14 years, Cocone’s flagship projects have attracted over 130 million downloads and 4.7M monthly active users. Meanwhile, in 2022 the highest daily profit from selling digital beauty and fashion items topped $1.7 million.

    MOOI Network

    With Cocone’s roots in the Web2-based virtual world, MOOI Network was established to help the company’s Web3 transition. Since the launch of MOOI Network on June 30th, 2022, POST VOYAGER and Cocone have built an outstanding portfolio filled with high-quality gaming titles and dapps, including MetaLivly, PKCL Twins, ClawKiss, and JANKEN. At the heart of the MOOI Network’s economy is Jellyme, an NFT marketplace for blockchain-based games. Recently, the marketplace has seen a significant surge in popularity: according to DappRadar, the dapp’s usage was up 7,312% in April, reaching 11,630 weekly active wallets.

    Bringing Access to the MOOI Ecosystem

    MOOI Network remains dedicated to its mission of creating an open and inclusive metaverse world that is accessible to users from all backgrounds. The listing of MOOI on MEXC is a significant milestone for the project, and MOOI Network looks forward to introducing more ways to grow and expand its ecosystem by offering users a convenient and user-friendly way to participate in MOOI Network’s vision through the listing of MOOI on MEXC Global.

    Recent Updates

    Recently, MOOI launched the ‘Space Flea Market’ collection, featuring game items from Pokecolo, one of the Cocone’s legendary avatar services. This collection has consistently ranked in the top-5 DappRadar NFT collectibles chart for over a month, attracting thousands of new users to the Web3 space. This success has propelled MOOI’s marketplace, Jellyme, into the top 10 during March-April 2023, further solidifying MOOI’s ability to attract and engage a growing community of users.

    Further Plans

    Currently, MOOI Network is actively preparing for Q2 with upcoming exchange listings, on-ramp features, and other product launches. Stay tuned for exciting updates as MOOI Network continues to expand its offerings. In the long run, MOOI aims to become a first-tier game-tailored ecosystem, attracting fun and high-quality services to join Web3 and build thriving play-and-own economies using MOOI Network.
