TimeCoin(TMCN) Combines NFT and DeFi, VTuber and Game Player Matching Service

TimeCoinProtocol is the decentralized sharing economy protocol which aims to optimize world resource usage. Various applications can be built and run on theTimeCoinProtocol including third party applications. The project puts a strong focus on the Gig Economy and Creator Economy. The project has issued an original cryptocurrency called TimeCoin(TMCN) which is listed on some major exchanges and was initially financed by a few investors who invested around 4 million USD. There have been only a very limited number of tokens placed on the market so far. The project is currently focusing on a Gig Economy application called TimeTicket, Creator Economy applications called GameTomodachi, eSportStars, and VTuber Production, NeoRad. TimeTicket has more than 500,000 users in Japan and generates several million US dollars in sales. The revenue of TimeTicket has grown more than 40 times over 3 years and the business plans to expand internationally. GameTomodachi is a game player matching application that targets the international market. The application will be released in September 2021. It plans to support more than 30 languages and 1,000+ games. The project’s main focus is the Indian market and it has plans to expand to other regions. Influencers in the gaming industry and game players can sell tickets which a buyer can use to play games with or against the sellers. eSportStars is an esports tournament management application that is being continuously upgraded. Esports players can communicate and play with or against fans. NeoRad Production is a VTuber management service that targets the global market. NeoRad has supported several VTubers that perform game, anime, and song related streaming videos. Shirahari Uni was the first VTuber. The project requires further development, including the implementation of Defi and NFT functionalities on the TimeCoinProtocol for these applications and VTuber production, and also new funds to support development and marketing costs. The project is planning to create an NFT marketplace where the VTubers and other creators in the world can trade NFT items. The project can offer an innovative DeFi system which is called Creator Sponsor Staking (CSS) along with the NFT marketplace. Fans can increase their TimeCoin holding by 12% after 6 months of staking and 24% after 12 months of staking. The increased portion will be split 50/50 between the fans and the creators. In return for sponsoring, creators will provide memberships with exclusive services, NFT digital items, services, and discount coupons. TimeTicket GmbH CEO, Masato Kakamu, explained in a recent AMA: “We want to create a place where professional players, creators, and fans can easily earn money which also helps them to better engage with their fans. To extend the GameTomodachi and eSportStars service, we want to offer esports gambling as well. We offer eSports mining for participants to earn TimeCoin. The more TimeCoin participants own, the better service they can get.” For this reason, the decision has been made to launch off-market token sales in order to enable the implementation of DeFi and NFT functionalities in the dApps and NFT marketplace, so that fans can support creators such as esports players, streamers, VTubers, etc. This will allow both creators and fans to receive additional tokens, as well as in-game items, art and anime characters traded using NFTs. Investors of TMCN can earn additional income by supporting creators as well.  Out of a total of 100,000,000 existing TMCN tokens, 10,000,000 tokens will be sold during the special token sales at more than 90% discount on the current market value. Several million dollars-worth of TimeCoin(TMCN) have already been sold and there is a limited number of tokens available for the sale. It will be possible to purchase TimeCoin in BTC, USDT or ETH via the TimeCoinProtocol.com/sale page, where it is also possible to consult the table of the token release periods.

Web3 grant project DNFT protocol connects with the isolated NFT world

DNFT protocol is a decentralized cross-chain nonfungible token network based on Polkadot. As a para chain of Polkadot, DNFT will provide the solution to cross-chain NFT management. DNFT is devoted to the protection of digital assets and the innovation of underlying protocols to enrich the Polkadot ecosystem. The technology behind DNFT Currently, many platforms are leveraging the smart contract powers of Ethereum. However, as a cross-chain infrastructure of the NFT ecosystem, DNFT is developed based on Polkadot, which is highly scalable and allows developers to create a cross-chain protocol with great performance. As such, DNFT users can enjoy the NFT cross-chain management in a safe, high-speed, and reliable way.  Grants and awards received by DNFT DNFT protocol is a recipient of the Wave 9 Web3 Foundation grant. The DNFT team was given a grant by Binance and also finished in the top three in hackathons DoraHacks and Wanxiang Hackathon.  Services provided by DNFT DNFT is a newly introduced decentralized NFT platform designed to provide NFT assets management and cross-chain services. It merges several functionalities, including NFT creation and cross-chain management, NFT marketplace and auction,  data-model-as-an-NFT module, NFT gaming and decentralized autonomous organization governance.  NFT creation and cross-chain management DNFT institutes a continuous taxing system when the asset is created and stored in the DNFT network. However, if there are delays in tax collections for the NFTs, the assets will go through auctions, and the winner of the bid will be the custodian of the purchase who has to pay taxes.  As for cross-chain services, the DNFT network will provide a cross-chain bridge that allows assets to go across multiple blockchains. Several chains such as Ethereum, BSC, Heco and Polkadot are supported in the platform.   NFT marketplace and auction The NFT marketplace is integrated into an NFT platform. The completed trading and auction services for NFTs will attract artists and NFT creators to the platform. In addition, the security of transactions also plays an important role in the system. As such, the DNFT protocol ensures the security of its NFT assets for each user. DAAN module The data-model-as-an-NFT, or DAAN module, is DNFT’s innovative practice for its future NFT vision. It was also the core module that helped the project team achieve the grant from the Web3 Foundation. Through the DAAN module, the data model can circulate more widely. This futuristic innovation will lead to a new wave for the existing NFT ecosystem. NFT gaming The integration of NFTs into games is currently a hot topic. NFTs as an asset in the game will be attached a new value by players and game developers. The game module in DNFT will be an important part of the NFT ecosystem. DNFT will also provide grants to outstanding game developers to promote a creative developer community and enriched ecosystem. DAO governance DAO governance will ensure the sustainability of the platform. For instance, it will process the auction of NFTs with unpaid taxes. If an NFT fails a DAO governance auction, the NFT will be burned. In addition, the future development of DNFT will also involve the community through DAO. The DNF token and its benefits The DNFT platform institutes its native token, DNF, which comes with dual compatibility: as a DNF ERC-20 token and a DNF mainnet token based on the Polkadot network. The mainnet token helps run the DNFT ecosystem and will be available once DNFT launches the mainnet.  These tokens can be exchanged once the DNFT bridge goes live, and users can exchange them on a one-to-one ratio. This cross-chain mechanism helps bolster the reliability of the DNFT network. Providing grants to enrich DNFT’s NFT ecosystem Primarily, all NFT and gaming networks will be encouraged to join the DNFT network. The DNFT grants will open live as soon as the project’s mainnet starts operating. To help NFT projects successfully enter the mainstream, DNFT will offer grants worth 10 million DNF to outstanding artists and game developers. Moreover, DNFT will provide technical training and help with information regarding the Polkadot ecosystem.  The grant program will fund Polkadot-based NFT decentralized application development and integration. Generally, the DNFT team will provide grants while remaining simple, efficient, effective and transparent. DNFT protocol’s latest processes On June 2, DNFT protocol successfully closed its first round of its initial DEX offering on Mantra DAO. The beta version of the DNFT DApp will be launched in June as well. The centralized exchange listing of DNF will be executed at the beginning of July, and the DNFT mainnet will be launched in August.

BabySwap’s Crazy APR is the best choice for investors

As the DeFi market warms up again, more projects and decentralized exchanges are showing up on the stage. According to CoinGecko, the DeFi crypto market capitalization for today is $98.7 billion, with a total trading volume of $9.9 billion in the last 24 hours, and the total value locked of DeFi coins is $106.4 billion. With so many options to distribute your funds, where should decentralized finance participants put their liquidity to earn more profits? BabySwap gives the answer. All tokens are welcome BabySwap’s introduction says it is the best AMM and NFT decentralized exchange for new Binance Smart Chain projects. It uses an initial liquidity offering to attract funds to BabySwap, which is quite unique and successful. BabySwap’s ILO means users need to add ALT-USDT liquidity to the ILO pool from June 1 14:00 UTC to June 2 14:00 UTC in BabySwap to earn BABY’s initial offering according to its share of pool. BabySwap has 252 different tokens available for ILO, with an extremely high APR between 200% to 3,000%. Participants have shared 10,000,000 BABY in total, with the initial price of $0.1. Since the time period is short, the impermanent loss can be ignored, and some of the participants even earned more after they unstacked the liquidity providers. The purpose of the ILO According to BabySwap, the main purpose of the ILO is as follow: Attract more traffic: As a new DEX, it is important to have a grand opening. An ILO can draw people’s attention to BabySwap and lead them to experience the full process of adding liquidity and staking. In addition, it will be easier for them to stake in BabySwap’s farm and pool after the ILO.Maximize your token’s value: Many have altcoins, but the original purchase price might be way higher than the current price due to the huge dump in the crypto market. BabySwap wants to increase its profit by encouraging them to participate in the ILO.Bring attention to newborn or small projects: BabySwap focuses on “baby projects” and aims to let people understand the value of outstanding projects. Next move BabySwap has opened 28 farms and one pool (stake BABY, earn BABY) after the ILO with an extremely high APR.  With a steady operation and smart innovations, BABY’s price will be increased in a healthy way. Users who have the above tokens in other BSC DEXs or Binance will have a higher return by providing liquidity in BabySwap. BABY’s price The initial price of BABY is $0.1. The price increased from $0.1 to $0.4 in a short period of time around 15:00 on June 2 UTC and suddenly dropped back below $0.1. This is common for tokens new to the market since many investors may dump their tokens immediately instead of waiting for future increases. However, surprisingly, the price then went back above $0.1 and continually increased to $0.19, which was almost 2x of the initial price. It turns out that BabySwap’s farms and its pool have successfully attracted people’s attention: Many kept buying in and then staked BABY into farms or our pool. Investors believe in the future increase of BABY, and there are reasons behind it. Investors have compared BABY to PancakeSwap’s CAKE ($19) and BakerySwap’s BAKE ($4). Thus, there is a 40x–190x increase for BABY to run. On the other hand, compared to the market cap of CAKE (around $3 billion) and BAKE ($670 million), BABY only has a circulating market cap of $100 million after the ILO, which also gives BABY space to grow. According to BabySwap’s operating strategy, nonfungible token moves and even user interface, it is not hard to tell that it is doing the best it can to help new projects and have a long-term steady operation. Besides, BabySwap has passed CertiK’s audit, and its code is open-sourced on GitHub.  Source:-https://cointelegraph.com/press-releases/babyswaps-crazy-apr-is-the-best-choice-for-investors

How Palestinian keffiyeh is being exploited

KARACHI: The keffiyeh is a chequered designed cloth that is predominantly associated with Palestinian people. The keffiyeh and how it’s worn tells different stories about the person wearing it. The color or the pattern describes a region or a tribe. The way it’s worn, either loosely draped over the shoulder, folded up on the sides of the head, or as a turban also tells a story. But the loudest story that the keffiyeh tells us is about the Palestinian struggle. It is symbolic of the Palestinians resilience against the apartheid state they are fighting against. Unfortunately, the Palestinian keffiyeh has now become a symbol that has highlighted the hypocrisy especially that of the fashion industry. Brands that have chosen to remain mum or neutral in regards to the Palestinian crisis have exploited the keffiyeh for monetary gains. Palestinian fashion designer, Omar Joseph Nasser-Khoury, told The Guardian, the keffiyeh is symbolic of  “dispossession, systematic displacement, extrajudicial killings, and oppression”. And so when a brand such as Louis Vuitton, which has clearly stated that they have a “neutral stance” in the ongoing crisis, sell the Palestinian keffiyeh for a staggering $700, it is what Nasser-Khoury rightly calls “disrespectful and exploitative.” To add insult to injury is the fact that Louis Vuitton is selling the scarf, which is worn either in white or red, in blue. Blue, a color that is predominant in the Israel flag. Louis Vuitton isn’t the only high-end brand to exploit the Palestinian keffiyeh in the name of fashion. Italian brand Fendi also has gone down the same route with their take on the design and was selling it for $835. The cost at which the scarves are being sold, even a small donation to the country and to the people they have taken the design from would be a big deal in the re-building of Gaza and other war-stricken Palestinian areas as well as raising awareness about their plight. But the brands won’t do that. In fact, the Western world has chosen to associate the keffiyeh with terrorism. A quick Google search of “what types of headgear or scarves do terrorists wear?” will show the keffiyeh. So, they’re willing to belittle the Palestinian identity while also minting it of its worth without any reference to the people. But what does the Palestinian keffiyeh really stand for? Different people have different interpretations. For many, the keffiyeh is a fishing net, a honeycomb, and the marks of dirt and sweat off a worker’s brow. Others associate wheat with the keffiyeh in reference to Jericho which is said to be one of the first cities to grow the grain. Another interesting take is to see barbed wire in the keffiyeh representing the illegal occupation and prison that the Palestinians are enduring. For most, it represents the armor that the Palestinians wear. Source:-utacut.com/2021/06/06/how-palestinian-keffiyeh-symbolizes-with-both-resilience-and-hypocrisy/
