Cere Network and Polygon Launch 'NFT Content Monetization' Platform Davinci
On February 14, Cere Network and Polygon launched a non-fungible token (NFT) marketplace and Web3 platform called Davinci, a project that aims to bolster the security behind NFT data. The platform is described as an “all-in-one Web3 media platform” that leverages Cere’s decentralized data cloud (DDC) platform and the proof-of-stake blockchain network Polygon.
Cere Network Launches All-in-One Web3 Media Platform Built on Polygon
Non-fungible token (NFT) media has become a big deal and a billion-dollar industry during the last year. However, the space has become filled with controversies as well with issues pertaining to intellectual property and copyrights to things like immutability.
In March 2021, there was a furious debate over immutability concerns tied to NFT technology. Fred Jin, the co-founder of Cere Network believes that NFT content that’s not stored properly is an issue.
“Most NFT content is not stored securely on the blockchain,” Jin said in a statement during the Davinci launch. “This is a problem, simply because your NFT can lose its content and associated value. The Davinci platform solves this problem via Cere DDC’s secure decentralized content delivery innovations.” The Cere Network executive added:
We’re really breaking new ground here, both for the entertainment industry and consumer enterprises, through a new standard for decentralizing data/content along with the Polygon team. Read More
Marc Blinder, Aikon: Making blockchain simple for businesses and consumers
Could you tell us a little bit about Aikon and what it offers?
Yeah, absolutely. So I’m one of the founders of the company, and also of a blockchain called ORE, which is the open record exchange. And four years ago we started this project, inspired by my original co-founder, Stefan Rover, who was an early encryption pioneer on the internet. Sadly, he has since passed away, but we’re kind of continuing on with his original vision.
You probably remember that the US used to have export restrictions on SSL. You couldn’t send encryption. It was considered a military secret, right? So he was German, and really into freedom. We’ve got this photo of him storming the Berlin Wall.
And so he rebuilt SSL in Germany, and sold online encryption software to banks. So that’s the kind of guy he was. He was really into privacy, security, encryption, all this stuff.
He loved the blockchain. And he kind of talked me and the other founders into this project. We set it up, kind of inspired by Ethereum. We have the Open Rights Foundation, which created the ORE token and the ORE blockchain. That’s a nonprofit. The ORE foundation only exists to give away tokens to developers to create usage of the ORE blockchain. Read More
CARDANO HAS A TOUGH COMPETITOR AFTER BITGERT MADE ITS BLOCKCHAIN LIVE, FASTEST & CHEAPEST BLOCKCHAIN THAN SOLANA OR ETHEREUM
Cardano competitor, Bitgert, has made its own blockchain LIVE today. This is good news for the Bitgert community and the crypto community because the new blockchain offers better features than any other chain in the market. As the Bitgert team had promised, the blockchain is gasless, and it is also the fastest. Brise will be a tough competitor to Solana, Ethereum, and many other crypto projects.
The Bitgert launch of the blockchain mainnet was a surprise to many crypto enthusiasts. Everyone knew the Bitgert team was developing a zero-gas fee blockchain that was launching in 2022, but no one knew when. The gasless blockchain is live today, the same day the BRISE token has gone live on Gate.io exchange. The Bitgert team has delivered the promised zero gas fee blockchain by charging 0.000021 BRISE, which is a value that is equal to $0.0000000000001. That’s how cheap the Brise Chain gas is.
The Bitgert team has also gone ahead to launch one of the fastest blockchains that have a throughput of 100k TPS. That’s how powerful the Bitgert blockchain is. The Bitgert is enabling developers to start all kinds of projects, including metaverse, NFTs, DeFi, dApps, and much more. This is a game-changing blockchain, and that’s why its launch resulted in skyrocketing Bitgert price. Read More
Intel claims its crypto mining chip is 1000 times faster than other GPUs
Cryptocurrency mining is a process to introduce a new block in a blockchain, by running a series of complex algorithms that require high power consumption devices such as GPUs.
Intel is officially entering into the cryptocurrency mining business, with its new chip designed specifically for blockchain applications such as Bitcoin mining and minting Non-fungible-tokens(NFTs). The company claims that its crypto-mining chips will be 1000 times faster than mainstream chips available in the market.
“We expect that our circuit innovations will deliver a blockchain accelerator that has over 1000x better performance per watt than mainstream GPUs for SHA-256 based mining. You will be able to learn more about our circuit innovations at the International Solid State Circuit Conference (ISSCC) this month,” wrote Raja M. Koduri, senior vice president and general manager of the Accelerated Computing Systems and Graphics Group at Intel Corporation in a blog post. Read More
Innovations that will change the way we work and interact online.
The Markethive Social Market Broadcasting Network becomes more prominent daily as the blockchain-driven ecosystem for entrepreneurs with a non-adversarial, bi-partisan free speech ethic and the collaborative culture we rarely see on social media platforms today. Even the newer acclaimed, free speech platforms are partisan to the left or right and deal with de-platforming and boycotts from payment providers.
Unlike the social media giants, which only have one primary news feed algorithmically set by the central authorities, Markethive is integrating four news feeds to accommodate the multi-functional platform within the Markethive ecosystem.
The individual feeds are General, Video, Blogging, and Content Curation, and they are all accessible from the main page and can be algorithmically set by the individual user. The scope that Markethive has is enormous as it integrates all the vertical systems of the other platforms under one roof.
Social + Video + Blogging + Marketing + Curation + Broadcasting + Affiliate + Gamification + Cottage Businesses = Markethive: A Powerful Blockchain-driven Ecosystem
There is nothing out there like Markethive. We are an Inbound Marketing (automated marketing platform) like Marketo, Paragon, and even the wannabee MLM Onpassive platform. We are like Youtube, Instagram, LinkedIn, Twitter, etc., but will be superior to these legacy Web 2 media when we release all the aspects and layout of Markethive 2.0.
We have a dynamic social media interface and growing community with a strong collaborative ethos, with SaaS and broadcasting capabilities already operational. We are not waiting for the launch to access the services; they are already there for you to use to help you facilitate your business and increase your reach and following. Read More
Cardano To Dominate The Market As A Leading Layer 1 Blockchain, Onboarding The Next Billion Users In Crypto – Kraken Report
Kraken Intelligence’s latest report bills Cardano to emerge as one of the best L1 blockchains.
The verdict is based on Cardano’s value-driven approach to development.
Massive network growth and plans around scalability will also play a key role for Cardano’s dominance.
Development on the Cardano blockchain has a lot of exciting prospects lined up for 2022. Some of these are highlighted in a new report published by the analysts at Kraken, a cryptocurrency exchange. While pointing out the massive network growth and key milestones Cardano has reached, the report hyped the proof-of-stake (PoS) blockchain to be emerging as one of the strongest contenders in the Layer 1 blockchain space.
Cardano’s values will be a key factor to place them at the top, says Kraken Intelligence report
In the February edition of the Kraken Intelligence report on the crypto industry, the exchange focused on the biggest proof of stake blockchain in the crypto market. The report, titled “Cardano: A new generation of smart contract platform design,” eulogized the Cardano blockchain for its value-based approach to building its ecosystem.
“Cardano’s values have noticeably directed the project’s developments and design decisions, and as a result, the blockchain looks like it has been designed with the purpose and standards of providing decentralized, global, financial infrastructure rather than only focusing on providing a Web3 experience,” Kraken noted.

NYSE Hints at Launch of NFT Market With Latest Patent Filing
A recent patent filing from the New York Stock Exchange suggests that the world’s largest exchange has more plans for NFTs.
As if OpenSea and Rarible needed more competition, the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) recently filed a patent suggesting it may soon join the non-fungible token (NFT) market.
On February 10, the NYSE filed a trademark to register “NYSE” for goods and services surrounding metaverse-related technologies like augmented reality and mixed-reality software, alongside various iterations of cryptocurrencies, tokens, digital assets, and NFTs.
The patent also includes “provision of an online marketplace for buyers, sellers, and traders of downloadable digital goods authenticated by non-fungible tokens (NFTs).” The filing outlines the launch of “virtual stores” and “showrooms” too.
Perhaps the most intriguing is the clause that outlines the provision of “a digital currency and a digital token for use by members of an online community” as well as the “issuance of digital tokens” and “non-fungible tokens of value.” It’s unclear from this language whether this means the exchange will be launching a native cryptocurrency any time soon.

Crypto Music App Audius Bridges AUDIO Token From Ethereum to Solana
Audius is pushing deeper into the Solana ecosystem with wrapped AUDIO tokens, new rewards opportunities, and more teased ahead.
Music platform Audius has launched a wrapped Solana version of its Ethereum AUDIO token.
Audius is expanding its footprint on Solana and teases more Solana-centric features ahead.
Streaming music service Audius was originally built to be used on the Ethereum network, but it has gradually embraced rival blockchain, Solana, as a way to scale to meet increasing demand. Today, the firm announced the latest step in that process: bridging its Ethereum-based AUDIO token to Solana.
Starting today, any AUDIO token holder can move the ERC-20 token from Ethereum to Solana using Wormhole’s Portal, a cross-platform bridge that lets users “wrap” an asset from one blockchain to use it on the other. When bridging, the native Ethereum tokens are locked into Wormhole’s smart contract, which then produces new native Solana tokens to use instead.
What’s the value? Audius says that this bridging process is an important step to bringing more functionality over to the rising Solana ecosystem, with a release claiming that it is “paving the way for future Solana-based features on Audius.” The platform is also now offering new token rewards to users for actions like downloading the mobile app or inviting friends.

YGG-backed Oasys blockchain hopes to take P2E gaming mainstream
“Gaming is the best use case the world has ever seen for blockchain and I believe we will see 10 million wallets interacting with blockchain games before the end of this year,” said Oasys founding member Gabby Dizon.
The team behind the new gaming-focused proof-of-stake blockchain Oasys says that it’s been designed to increase mainstream play-to-earn (P2E) adoption.
The Singapore-based firm (Oasys PTE. LTD) behind the new chain touts its scalability, eco-friendly PoS blockchain, “zero gas fee experience” and the portability of digital assets between different projects built on the blockchain as key drawcards for developers and users.
The founding team includes a host of names from top crypto and gaming firms including Bandai Namco Research president and CEO Hajime Nakatani, Sega Corporation co-chief operating officer Shuji Utsumi, double.jump.tokyo CEO Hironobu Ueno, Thirdverse CEO Hironao Kunimitsu, and Yield Guild Games (YGG) co-founder Gabby Dizon.
The Oasys blockchain officially launched on Feb. 7 and has partnered initially with 21 gaming and Web3 tech companies to act as validators, with Dizon’s crypto gaming guild YGG signed on as one of the first. Read More
