Paribus (PBX) Announces Multichain Integration and Partnership

As our regular readers know we’ve been using the extra time our testnet deployment afforded us to equip Paribus with the optimal conditions for our mainnet launch. As part of that process, we’re absolutely thrilled to share with the community that we’ve partnered with Multichain so that our PBX token can now be bridged to Arbitrum, Milkomeda, and Polygon.

Cross-chain interoperability has always been at the heart of everything we hope to achieve and it’s incredible that we’ve already reached this milestone. Development teams from both Paribus and Multichain have worked tirelessly to ensure the success of this move, going above and beyond our wildest expectations.

Multichain is a leader in terms of security, cross-chain speed, and costs. Since its foundation, it has evolved from a 1:1 cross-chain bridge to an innovative cross-chain router system that interconnects multiple chains. It offers an advanced and real-time Cross-Chain Router Protocol (CRP) system that supports the interoperability of tokens, NFTs, and general data across multiple chains.

For PBX holders the minimum volume required for a cross-chain transaction through the router is between 2,847 PBX and 9,412 PBX depending on which chain the bridge is between. Likewise, the maximum amount per transaction is 180,000,000 PBX to 2,747,026,344 PBX, again depending on the chain that’s being bridged to.

The transaction speeds are incredible too, with most transactions arriving within 10-30 minutes. Larger transactions may however take up to 12 hours to arrive. The definition of a large transaction varies from 1,000,000 PBX to 549,405,268 PBX depending upon the chain that it’s bridging to.

For those unfamiliar with Multichain, they may remember its previous name, Anyswap, which was founded in July 2020. Anyswap started life as a cross-chain decentralized exchange, however, seeing the strength of its development in cross-chain solutions it pivoted to specialize in bridging infrastructure.

They now provide a cross-chain router service that has a strong track record in terms of both speed and security, having quadrupled their speed of transactions over time. Significantly for Paribus, they also operate a non-custodial approach using Multi-Party Computation (MPC) technology. In practical terms this enables users to keep their full private key secret during interactions with the bridge. Because Multichain is non-custodial it means that it can’t take control of users’ assets, which is something we’ve seen happen with other platforms.

As our CTO Simon recently explained in relation to DAOs controlling users’ assets, “Deciding to control another person’s wallet without their permission isn’t something that I feel should be acceptable.” As such it was hugely important to us that the bridge provider we partner with operates on a non-custodial basis and we’re delighted things have worked out so well with Multichain.

Another crucial factor for us is the approach that Multichain takes towards its security. As we all know nothing in the blockchain space is ever 100% secure. Exploits and vulnerabilities are regularly exposed and as such, we take a very cautious approach to security.

In addition to being audited by TrailOfBits, SlowMist, PeckShield, DEDAUB, and BlockSec, Multichain also operates a bug bounty program and a security fund. The bug bounty program incentivizes the reporting of bugs from the community and the security fund is intended, “to provide protection for system operation and financial security in the event of unforeseen risks”. Their security audits are available for anyone to review:

We’re sure you’ll be as delighted as we are to welcome our new strategic partnership with Multichain. Together we can help drive forward the future of interoperable DeFi.

New Perspectives for Creators and Collectors: How Stars.Art is Changing the Global NFT Arena

Nonfungible token (NFT) sales topped $4.4 billion in January and have noticeably decreased in the following months. The May market crash accelerated the decline and caused sales to plunge to $1 billion by June – a 65% drop from January. Ostensibly, the revenue earned by NFT holders is at frustratingly low levels, which through restrictions, market manipulation, and flat-out security vulnerabilities of centralized platforms, can only go as far as exacerbate.

Despite all this, some key data indicate that it isn’t as apocalyptic as how others made it sound. Despite recent turbulences in the overall market environment, long term perspectives look promising: The global NFT market size is expected to reach $130 billion in 2030, registering a revenue CAGR of 10.7%, according to Emergen Research.

Boosting the NFT economy’s revenue

Aiming to make earning revenue more favorable for NFT holders Stars.Art NFT Marketplace has introduced a number of exciting features: One is by offering low to zero trading commissions. Sellers only pay a maximum commission of 0.75% per transaction, while buyers don’t pay fees at all. This starkly contrasts with the 2-3% per sale that are charged by leading NFT marketplaces. Aside from this, NFT creators can also customize royalties between 0% to 15%.

The other way is by letting users earn passive income through staking features that Stars.Art will soon introduce. NFT staking allows users to generate rewards, usually in the form of tokens, by locking up their NFT assets to either a platform or a liquidity pool. Users would then be able to earn income from their priced NFT possessions without actually selling them. Vladimir Perov, founder and CEO of Stars.Art said, “Our main goal is to remove some common barriers in the user journey and ensure the best conditions in the NFT market for the Stars.Art community. We aim to be the world’s number one platform, where the real power will be in the community’s hands, which is the principle of decentralization.The Journey of Stars.Art began in 2021, when the NFT and Crypto Market were booming. As a result, the world of blockchain technology is constantly evolving and we are adapting quickly to it by launching Start Art.”

Decentralization at its core

One of the main downsides of centralized platforms is that decision-making is vested only in the party controlling the scene, making crucial changes happen abruptly. There have been times when minting and the amount of NFTs that can be created has been limited and certain collections delisted. Worse, centralization has also led to instances of insider trading. All of this happened with the larger community staying uninformed.

Stars.Art is shaping up to be an outlier. The platform is DAO-based and community-centric. This means that users have a hand in the decision-making activities of the platform and grants them the power to vote on critical changes once its governance token, STAR, has been launched.

Free minting

Stars.Art also started a free minting campaign wherein artists can mint Polygon (MATIC) NFT collections and start selling without having to pay the corresponding minting fee. The only cost to the user is the gas fee, which is only applied when an NFT is sold and is moved to the blockchain.

In order to reward the most talented artists, Stars.Art will cover the cost of Polygon MATIC gas for those who have an account on the platform linked to their crypto wallet, and an NFT collection listed. Welcome onboard and mint your NFT’s for free on Stars.art!

About Stars.Art

Stars.Art is a 100% secure and reliable platform with a focus on DeFi and Web3. It strives to build a diverse ecosystem with cross-chain architecture that facilitates interoperability. Firstly Stars.Art will operate on the Ethereum and Polygon blockchain. But we keep optimizing the customer journey by making upgrades and improvements. In the near future, the platform will also support several additional blockchains.

UREEQA’s partnership with La Flor Dominicana for an unprecedented NFT campaign with real world utility – Sells for $90,000

UREEQA teamed up with renowned cigar manufacturer La Flor Dominicana for an exclusive, limited-edition NFT drop. And so far, it’s been a tremendous hit.

La Flor Dominicana’s Golden NFT release is validated by UREEQA, resulting in one of the most unique and secure NFT drops in history. The auctions themselves are taking place on the UREEQA marketplace from 8/11 to 8/23 and can be accessed at https://bit.ly/UREEQAXLFD.

Earlier last week, La Flor Dominicana and UREEQA launched a first of its kind NFT drop that provides an opportunity for seven people across the world to become the exclusive buyers of the Andalusian Bull – The Golden NFT, allowing them to purchase up to 70 cigars per month. The original buyers of these seven NFTs will also receive a personalized 50-count Gold Bullion Humidor filled with cigars.

Auctions for five of the seven have been completed, with prices hitting $90,000. The auctions themselves are taking place on the UREEQA marketplace and can be accessed at https://bit.ly/UREEQAXLFD.

Those who purchase The Golden NFT on the UREEQA Marketplace won’t just be comforted by the fact the digital asset and related utilities have been protected by UREEQA’s patent pending validation service, but they’ll also gain the exclusive right to buy the newly created Andalusian Bull — a special LFD cigar that is not available on the cigar market.

What is The Golden? It is a never-before released Lonsdale version of the famed Andalusian Bull; which pays homage to Spain, the birth country of company founder Litto Gomez and was named Cigar Aficionado Magazine’s Cigar of the Year in 2016.

“Personally, it’s my favorite cigar,” said Tony Gomez, Vice President of La Flor Dominicana. “There is just something special about the Lonsdale, I think it’s the most beautiful cigar size, and when combined with the Andalusian Bull blend there emerges an elegance and depth of flavor that is nothing short of spectacular.”

The 42″ x 6.25″ Lonsdale has, until now, been a private blend that Litto Gomez and his son Tony have kept for themselves and their friends. That is changing; altogether, seven NFTs will be minted and auctioned off. Those who purchase an NFT will gain the right to buy up to 70 of these cigars per month for as long as they own the NFT. La Flor Dominicana guarantees that these seven NFT owners will be the only people in the world who can buy The Golden directly from them. Owners of the NFTs will be allowed to re-sell the digital asset in the future, transferring the right to purchase the cigars to a new owner.

“La Flor Dominicana is an adventurous, creative brand entering uncharted territory with an NFT release that is historic and unprecedented in their industry,” UREEQA Chief Marketing Officer Shannon Powell said. “We’re happy that they’ve recognized we can offer LFD and their clients the ultimate protection and guidance for their highly anticipated release. This is the beginning of something big!”

UREEQAs patent pending validation service verifies the authorship, ownership and originality of any asset that can be tokenized. From cigars to digital art, the integration of people, processes and technology works in tandem to maintain the integrity of an NFT. This creates more value and trust for sellers and purchasers; especially for an industry navigating into the unfamiliar world of digital assets.

“Our industry is rather old school, and we realize that this idea will expose a lot of people to a totally unknown world,” said Gomez, “so being able to provide a safe, secure platform for bidding and purchasing that offers assurances regarding authenticity is extremely important. The way we see it, these NFTs aren’t just access to a special cigar — they are an investment and UREEQA’s validation services provide protection on that investment.”

It doesn’t get much more important than that and to the Gomez family and the LFD brand, it’s personal.

La Flor Dominicana was founded by Tony’s father, Litto Gomez, and his stepmother, Ines Lorenzo Gomez in 1994. In a relatively short lifespan, the brand has managed to compete with generational cigar brands that have been around for lifetimes. Still, the company’s focus has always been on quality over quantity.

“We never make more cigars than we can,” Tony Gomez said, “even if demand far exceeds production, which it always does. And we control the entire process behind our products, which includes owning both our own farm and factory.”

That is being employed in full force for La Flor Dominicana’s Golden NFT release, resulting in one of the most unique and secure NFT drops in history. You still have a chance to jump in!

NFT release schedule:
Each NFT will be released one at a time with a 48-hour window.
#1 – 8/11 – Completed at $85,000
#2 – 8/13 – Completed at $78,000
#3 – 8/15 – Completed at $90,000
#4 – 8/17 – Completed at $90,000
#5 – 8/19 – Drops at Noon 8/21 EST

IKONIC Releases NFT Esports Platform

Announcing the launch of IKONIC, the World’s First Dedicated NFT Platform for Esports and Gaming Collectibles. The IKONIC platform will be a full-service NFT marketplace that will serve pro-players, gamers, teams, and content creators within the gaming industry; a dedicated marketplace where they can create unique and rare digital items for their fans.

IKONIC platform allows esports players and gamers to create NFTs with their gameplay.

The IKONIC team realized that some of the most amazing moments in gaming were vanishing just as fast as they were created, and until now, there has not been a way for a player or a fan to own and benefit from fantastic gameplays. IKONIC’s ambition is to fuel each gamer’s creativity by giving them the ability to turn their passion into profit.

Through today’s blockchain technology, we can turn esports moments into digital collectibles that will last for eternity. We have so much more than that on the roadmap, because we aim to empower the creator economy, which will open new revenue streams for gamers and esports players. We will merge the cryptoverse and esports, and for the first time, players and fans will – OWN THE MOMENT.

There are thousands of esports events every week all around the globe. Still, players cannot get the recognition they deserve. Some of them make better plays than top esports players, but they cannot reach their audience because of the system that is in place. Each player has some fantastic moments, and with IKONIC they can immortalize those moments and earn from their gameplays.

We do not forget pro-players; they are our heroes; we cheer for them; we live through them. Ikonic will make it possible for top players to connect with their fans. A place where fans can collect the best gameplay moments.

Players will be able to create unique NFTs of their gameplay with a few clicks, and with a click or two more, they will be listed and ready to trade on IKONIC’s marketplace. But IKONIC will be much more than that. When we progress into advanced development, the existing marketplace infrastructure and its community will become the foundation for a broader marketplace for game-linked digital assets.

The $IKONIC Token will be the key to unlocking rewards for players and fans. Through the $IKONIC Token users will get discounts and have access to specific bonuses within the platform.

Soon gamers will have a chance to see our video editing software for advanced NFT creation. The revolutionary NFT Transaction & Performance Analytics will allow every user to analyze data much more effectively — and efficiently. This year, we will also reveal our Indie Game Launchpad for NFT Games.

Led by industry experts IKONIC will be the prime NFT marketplace for the esports and gaming world.

Sebastian Ionut Diaconu, CEO of IKONIC, says, “The IKONIC platform allows users to immortalize their outstanding gameplay into video NFTs, the next-gen type of memorabilia for esports. Partnerships and collaborations with the biggest names in esports and rising stars to create IKONIC NFT collections, that will be the foundation for an active ecosystem for the fans, creators, and collectors, with extensive benefits for all participants. In addition to the NFT Marketplace, the Indie Game Launchpad allows game developers and the community to come closer together, get access to exclusive content and in-game items.”

“Esports players’ status as athletes has been disputed for a long time. Creating a legacy through memorable moments captured and stored on Blockchain, earning royalties from these NFTs, and sharing their exceptional capabilities with the world, give them the opportunity to make themselves a legendary or even an IKONIC athlete in the esports world.”

About IKONIC

IKONIC is the world’s first Esports NFT marketplace. IKONIC aims to bring forth a revolution for gamers, and esports players by offering them the necessary tools to earn from their creations. By combining blockchain technology with state-of-the-art video editing software, IKONIC targets to create a new generation of Esports players that can own their moments.

After 500 per cent spike in a single day, MuskMelon NFT advances its game for yielding higher returns

MuskMelon NFT, a utility token developed on Binance Smart Chain and Ethereum, transforms its game with the addition of the latest generation technology – Automated Burning, NFT Gaming & Metaverse. These next-level tech upgradations will create a big hit craze in the NFT and gaming universe.

The Web3 space has proved its charm multifaceted and constantly evolving, and the world is embracing it heavily. A lot of focus remains steady on the tech evolution for NFTs. With the advent of Metaverse and its heavy embracement, the gaming industry is witnessing huge demand and response as NFT avatars models and memes lead to higher engagement.

Considering the proliferating demand for NFTs and Gaming, the MuskMelon project’s creator had launched 10 billion Melons, which is the native currency and can be used for buying Non-Fungible Tokens, in-game assets, and even for other purposes. Recently, within the initial trading hours, The Melon tokens went up by 500 per cent, providing enormous profit for investors.

On the upgradation occasion, Neal Mathews, Project Advisor of MuskMelon, said, “We are enormously enthusiastic about our recent technology embracement to the NFT game. We are planning a public sale of 8 billion Melons, which can be used to purchase Non-Fungible Tokens (NFTs) and in-game assets or other purposes. The sale will start on Bitmart and XT very soon. MuskMelon has timely upgraded its platform with special emphasis on its community.

With MuskMelon currently traded heavily on 4 exchanges, XT, Bitmart, Bibox and Digifinex, MuskMelon will release its Automated burning protocol starting Monday, Aug 15th 2022 that will last only 8 days and burn 1 Billion tokens each day which means that 80% of the overall token economy will be gone and thus 100% of the tokens will be with Melonmaniacs giving them complete control on the token value.

Relive Your Memories in The Metaverse

By now I’m sure everyone has heard of the fantasy of time travel but what if I could tell you that we can make that fantasy a reality in Virtual Reality that is?

Introducing Reflect

An invention created by Milan Cheeks, Alan Charity, and SELF Labs Inc, Reflect Is a Simulation game based on the principles of memory. You can relive your memories in the Metaverse by minting it as an NFT. By owning a Reflect Mint Pass you can get your memory created into an interactive world populated with AI Reflection Avatars to interact with and high-resolution gameplay powered by Unity & Unreal Engine 5.

How Does It Work?

There are 4 tiers of Mint Passes available that allow you to mint memories in different eras which are, Common, Rare, Ultra-Rare, and the Legendary tier. The Common Tier allows you to mint a memory up to 10 years in the past. This could be a recent memory you had up to 2010. The Rare Tier allows you to mint a memory up to 20 years in the past. Which can be a memory from now to 2000. The Ultra-Rare Tier allows you to mint up to 30 years in the past, which can be a memory up to 1990. Finally, we have the Legendary Tier which allows you to mint a memory in any era.

Each memory can be minted by following our three-step process. First step, choose which Tier Pass you would like to mint. Step two, upload a picture of your memory and a detailed description of what happened in your photo. Step Three, after you mint your NFT stake it and have your world created by Mirror Image Studios a SELF Labs Organization.

How is the Gameplay?

Each memory will be fully immersive with high end graphics to depict your memory in a real-world setting. AI Reflection Avatars will enhance the experience by allowing you to interact with each person in your memory. Each Avatar has the ability to speak in the voices of people in your memory and you can choose to continue to live and have others join the simulation with these avatars as Smart NPCs (Non-Playing Characters). For example, you mint a memory of your 10-year-old birthday party, you can relive this memory and create everyone that was in attendance as avatars. You will be to talk and fully interact with these avatars, but you can continue to live with these avatars and have your decisions depict what happens next. By continuing the memory, the avatars will adapt, and each memory will become a civilization of these “Living” Smart NPCs. Sound like a Black Mirror Episode yet? If not, just wait until the next part.

A life With No Regrets

Have you ever thought about a memory and thought about how you could have done something differently? Well with the Reflect Game you no longer need to contemplate other outcomes. We added a function in the game called Quantum Jumping which allows you to go back into a memory and make a different decision than what you’ve made in the past. For example, using the same 10-year-old birthday example, you can choose not to go to the party and see what would have happened if you didn’t go. Did we blow your mind yet?

Show Off Your Memory Or Trade It

Once you receive your mint pass you can sell it or buy others on the open market like Opensea at any time. You can sell it before your world is created or even after the simulation begins. The Reflect Game will be an open world concept like Decentraland or Sandbox but instead of plots, there will be a conjunction of different memories. This allows anyone to join your memory and relive the past with you.

Historic Memories

Historic memories are a big part of the Reflect Game and exclusive to Legendary Tier Mint Pass holders. Each holder will have the ability to collaborate with institutions like Museums to recreate an historical memory like Martin Luther Kings “I Have A Dream” speech or even further to living with George Washington.
