Adobe Partners With NFT Platforms To Launch Content Attribution Feature
Adobe, the American multinational computer software company behind Photoshop and a host of other Creative Cloud features for multimedia professionals, has announced that it is partnering with top NFT marketplaces OpenSea, KnownOrigin, Rarible, and SuperRare to launch a feature on Adobe Photoshop that would allow creators to create images as NFTs.
The feature will place attribution information on the image and display credentials for NFT artists, preparing these images as non-fungible tokens whose metadata can be viewed and displayed on OpenSea, KnownOrigin, Rarible, and SuperRare’s respective websites. With OpenSea’s implementation, a blue “match” icon will be displayed if a wallet address matches the recorded and verified address on an image minted as NFT. Read More
Polkadot-based DAO aims to make decentralized governance more accessible
A decentralized autonomous organization is developing tools to make DAO-building more accessible as it dreams of a decentralized society.
Looking at it narrowly, the goal of SubDAO Labs is to provide small to mid-size organizations with the tools they need to move beyond centralized governance models and form feature-rich, effective, and sustainable decentralized autonomous organizations.
Arguing that the DAO governance model “has gone from obscurity to the preferred form of governance for most blockchain projects,” SubDAO believes one of the biggest stumbling blocks to its widespread adoption is that “it is not practical for smaller organizations or those without sufficient fund to develop their own governance tools.”
While organizations like Aragon and DAOHaus have made available tools and smart contracts that meet basic governance needs like voting and fund management, other more advanced but common needs — like decentralized arbitration, credit-based lending platforms, DAO-governed social media platforms, and decentralized communication platforms — “are difficult to satisfy with the existing toolchains,” SubDAO says.

Ampleforth integrates with Avalanche to introduce stablecoin alternative
Fragments Inc., the team responsible for developing the Ampleforth protocol, has announced that Ampleforth will be integrated into popular blockchain Avalanche to facilitate the introduction of AMPL, a fully decentralized unit-of-account that can be used to denominate stable contracts.
The Ampleforth protocol holds promise as a decentralized alternative to stablecoins that can be used in core functionalities in the DeFi space such as lending, borrowing, and the deployment of on-chain derivatives.
Ampleforth’s rebasing mechanism of daily adjusted supply levels enables the metric measurement of price value for users’ token accumulation, as opposed to the traditional method of price-tracked volatility. These systemic rules are then encoded on Ethereum via smart contracts. Read More
