Expansion of Japanese Metaverse Assets: Compliant JPY-based Stablecoin JPYW and Japanese blockchain game Mechaverse reached an official cooperation

 

On July 1, 2022Tokyo local time, compliant JPY-based Stablecoin JPY World (JPYW) announced officially that it has reached an ecosystem co-construction and cooperation in transactions with the Japanese blockchain game —— Mechaverse. According to the official Twitter of Mechaverse, the two parties will explore and implement various aspects, such as the settlement, payment, liquidity injection, and staking derivatives of JPY-based Stablecoin in Mechaverse. Finally, it will achieve the goal of increasing number of users, creating a well-known animation IP image, and making it convenient to enter the Web3.0 metaverse.

JPYW is a prepaid token launched by PassPay that can be purchased and used on the official website of PassPay at a price of 1 YEN = 1 JPYW. JPYW ensures a 1:1 anchor with the YEN in the form of margin. As a compliant JPY-based stablecoin under the “Revision of Funding Resolution Act”, it has become the only blockchain stablecoin that is certified and licensed by the government of Japan. Meanwhile, the company has also finished submitting the application and the deposit for “issuer of prepaid payment method (internal)” to the government.

As the first Japanese mecha blockchain game of Mechaverse Labs, Mechaverse combines high-quality Japanese animation IP and playable blockchain games based on the Web3 operating platform and solution, as well as exploring the value of NFT and constructing the entrance to metaverse of Japanese anime mecha through GameFi’s feature of linking values.

This cooperation is seen as a bridge between the traditional Japanese market and the Crypto world which drives a new flow and value into the crypto world.

Why is JPYW the “only child” of the stablecoin?

With the strict filing and review mechanism of “Funding Resolution Act” in Japan, only JPY-based Stablecoin can operate legally after obtaining approval, which also prevents other types of stablecoins from entering the Japanese crypto trading market. As the “only child” of the stablecoin that has been certified by the local government, JPYW began to strive for compliance as early as before the “Funding Resolution Act” was released. The team hired the largest law firm in Japan to form a strong and legal consultant team to plan compliance, apply at the drafting stage of regulations and participate in various inquiries from the Financial Services Agency actively.

In terms of the custody method of collateral, the physical collateral of USDT/USDC are mostly bills and cash of commercial banks, while JPYW is a blockchain stablecoin that is fully collateralized by YEN, and all the collaterals will be handed over to the government. Therefore, the mechanism of exchange and redemption is more sound, the security of funds is stronger and the risk is lower.

JPYW will bring into full play of stablecoin and start by breaking three barriers: 1. Breaking the barrier between crypto assets and real assets; 2. Breaking the barrier of cross-border transactions and exchanges; 3. Breaking the barrier between crypto assets as the mainstream assets in the future digital society and the insufficient acceptance of reality.

To realize such a vision, PassPay must first expand the use cases of JPYW and enrich financial instruments and product solutions. Therefore, in terms of use cases, PassPay chose to cooperate with Mechaverse(a metaverse platform that also belongs to Japan) and similar Crypto projects. In terms of operation of users, JPYW can be obtained through gift card and purchase on its official website, which will be used after connecting to the Metamask wallet according to the official white paper. A large number of projects, including Mechaverse, are available on Metamask. It is easier to achieve operability and compatibility in the early stage of asset access.

PassPay will launch more financial products such as STO derivatives trading, physical NFT trading, and gold tokenized trading soon in the future.

community-based-social-platform-cinfinix-with-one-click-nft-creation-feature-formally-launched

Community-based social platform Cinfinix with one-click NFT creation feature formally launched

 

Hieroglyph Digital Technology, a blockchain innovation company, recently launched a cross-chain Non-Fungible Token (NFT) social platform, Cinfinix, based on Ethereum (ETH) and Polygon technologies. The platform allows users to create and display their NFTs freely to identify their individual value through better engagement with the community, while realizing innovative ideas to capitalize private social data and give rise to the personal digital economy. The app can be downloaded and installed directly from the Apple and Google Play stores, enabling users to have instant access to the metaverse.

The maturing of Web3.0 technologies and applications has allowed for the rapid development of varied NFT projects. As a unique token which can not be split up, NFT is quickly gaining popularity among investors and creators. According to the blockchain data platform Chainalysis, the value of smart contracts for creating NFTs on the ETH blockchain exceeded US$40.9 billion in 2021. However, how to create and specifically define the value of a NFT has always been the greatest concern of investors, creators, metaverse fans and researchers.

The purpose behind the launch of Cinfinix is to rewrite the initial definition of NFT in a narrow sense and extend the scope of the definition, considering personal digital assets and the value attributed to them by Web3.0-based NFTs  as a new way to highlight one’s personal identity, community activities and social experience in the metaverse space. The intangible assets also serve as a fast pass by which individuals can enter the metaverse world.

Based on Web3.0 technologies, Cinfinix integrates the core elements of the metaverse, including self-built communities, creators, originality, credibility, communality and common areas of interest, with infinite possibilities and unlimited creativity, empowering every creator with NFT properties and functions. Different groups of users, such as individuals, brands, merchants and organizations, can engage in a variety of creative social activities on the platform, with each one making a contribution to the development of the personal digital economy.

No limits for creating NFTs

As part of one’s private assets, creations on social media representing a person ‘s value are owned by users. They can publish any amount of beneficial content on the platform as a way of sharing their experience and reflecting their personal value by establishing a presence in the My Community and/or My Home sections.

NFTs can be created without any content and format limits. It can be a text, a photo, an audio or a video. After being created, an NFT can be placed for sale on the Cinfinix platform.

Self-determined community-oriented social networking

Built upon Web 3.0 ‘s decentralized blockchain protocol, Cinfinix encourages users to interact with others freely. Whether your are an user, a creator or a brand, you can choose a role as an Explorer, Contributor and Metaverse Rising Star on the platform to build your own or join different types of communities where you can monetize your NFTs, gain more influence and increase your personal wealth.

One-click NFT creation without any costs

By connecting to a digital wallet, users are able to convert their content directly into an NFT and become the owner of a real-time unique NFT with one touch. After completing daily check-ins or participating in community social tasks, users can also be rewarded with bonus points (CIX). Moreover, they can upgrade their status and receive more NFT shares and platform tokens based on their contributions to the community. In the early stage of the launch, CIX points can be directly used to tokenize NFTs, totally cost-free.

Exclusive NFT authentication

With Cinfinix’s strong social properties, various brands and participants can build their own communities on the platform including creating an NFT membership card, establishing member benefits and initiating community activities to enhance user stickiness.

Cinfinix offers a wealth of operational tools to boost the development of communities, including Web3.0 digital marketing tools that brands can use to create an autonomous business ecosystem of metaverse KOLs.

Pre-Seed financing for the app was completed prior to the launch. Remaining funds will be applied to the leveraging of Web3.0 technologies to gradually roll out a number of personal digital economy services to users, with the triple goal of assisting active communities in issuing governance tokens, opening up a crowdfunding platform, and putting in place the development plans for Cinfinix and DAOs within each community.

With the help of various authentication tools, Cinfinix is launching a personal NFT showroom for students, where they can showcase their school life and enrich their job applications. In addition, Cinfinix has started a partnership program to invite NFT projects, brands, merchants, and organizations around the world to join the platform and establish a community.

Become a Cinfinixer and join the community to create a new NFT experience together.

Digital Pratik’s JorrParivar presents India’s first NFT-ticketed IRL event – the ‘JorrDaar Event’

 

In a remarkable move, popular content creator and personal branding practitioner Digital Pratik is bringing forth India’s first-ever NFT ticketed IRL event – JorrDaar Event – through his NFT project, JorrParivar. Encompassing a wide range of activities, Q&A sessions, in-depth panel discussions about Web3 tech and NFTs, and much more, this first-of-its-kind event will be held on 24th June 2022 at Club 07 in Ahmedabad, Gujarat.

JorrParivar by Digital Pratik is the country’s very-first community-driven NFT project consisting of 1254 tokens around 22 IPs with a primary focus on the practicalities of branding, marketing, and motivation – and is now presenting its own unique event exclusively for JorrParivar holders. This JorrDaar Event, in turn, marks itself as India’s first on-ground event for which real NFT tickets will be airdropped specifically in your wallet based on a snapshot of JorrParivar holders on Ethereum Blockchain. These NFT tickets will be redeemed on JorrParivar’s custom Web3 platform, which will generate code via blockchain. Their portal will then scan this at the event before letting in the attendees. What’s noteworthy is that the tickets to the event are not sold in INR or any fiat currency.

Breaking paths from the ordinary, JorrDaar intends to bring together like-minded people under one roof, thereby unlocking phenomenal networking opportunities in the Web3-crypto-NFT landscape and beyond. Apart from facilitating these meaningful interactions and conversations, the event also seeks to serve as a platform for NFT artists to showcase their art in the JorrDaar gallery to all JorrParivar holders. Furthermore, it will also see a Q&A session that will detail all about NFTs alongside 3-panel discussions. Each panel discussion will deep-dive into relevant subjects such as the Web3 World, the GenZ’s take on NFTs, and whether NFTs can be a way of branding and marketing. Panelists for these include notable personalities like Anshul Rustaggi, Vishakha Singh, Raj Shamani, Varun Mayya, Farheen, Ayush, Shashank, Pratik, Agastya Shah, Pritosh, Gurang, Reshi , Anshuman, and Abhinav, amongst several others.

While expressing his excitement about the event, Digital Pratik said, “It is no secret that NFTs have brought about a paradigm shift in art collecting and are the future. However, I believe that they will also revolutionize and take the marketing realm by storm by becoming another way of branding and marketing a business online. This event is our endeavour to club the power of community and our future and, in the process, break down and bring conversations around NFTs to the mainstream. I am looking forward to learning and growing with the JorrParivar family, alongside, of course, having lots of fun!”

In addition to this, the JorrDaar Event will bring into its fold a bunch of special activities, surprise launches, exclusive merchandising, and perks for the JorrParivar NFT holders – making for fun as well as an insightful experience. At the same time, it also acts as yet another step by JorrParivar towards playing a significant role in ushering in Web3 and fostering crypto development at a lightning-fast pace in the country.

curtain-falls-on-miam’s-“dream-space:-new-wave-in-the-metaverse”-nft-art-exhibition

Curtain Falls on MIAM’s “Dream Space: New Wave in the Metaverse” NFT Art Exhibition

 

The Metaverse Industry Association Macau (“MIAM“)’s first NFT exhibition, “Dream Space: New Wave in the Metaverse” (“the Exhibition“), wrapped up on 12 June. Debuted on 1 May at Lisboeta Macau’s H853 Fun Factory, the city’s first ever physical NFT exhibition greeted visitors with 37 artworks from the world’s notable artists and IPs.

Mr. Thomas Aofounder and President of MIAM, said, “Metaverse and NFTs were probably not on most people’s radar until just a year ago and now we are talking about Web3.0 and other revolutionizing themes – to some extent, we are presenting the future to people via this exhibition.”

The exhibition has featured 37 artworks from famed artists and IPs that included Macau’s own Álvaro Barbosa, Andreas Ivan (courtesy of Mr. Arnaldo Ho), BAYC (Bored Ape Yacht Club), CryptoPunks (both courtesy of Coinunited.io), David Yuan and Ting Song. The event also consisted video screenings from We Are What We Eat, a performance art feast for all five senses and the world’s only edible NFT dining experience (created by André Chiang), as well as METASENS, a large-scale metaverse theme park backed by Imperium Technology Group Limited (00776.HK). Meanwhile, visitors were invited to experience the fun of creating avatars and architecture at the Sandbox workshop, while the exhibition showcased multiple Sandbox creators’ works. The exhibition was curated by Mr. Cai Guojie, former Visual-Art instructor from Macau Art Museum.

“MIAM launched the first NFT exhibition in Macau because we want to initiate the metaverse conversation, probably demystify this space for some, and provide a platform for the likeminded in the region. The exhibition has marked a successful end, but it is the beginning of our mission, as we launch more initiatives to boost innovations and education.” Mr. Ao continued.

Earlier during the exhibition, MIAM hosted two online panel discussions that looked at some of the most trending topics, such as the relationships between web 3.0, NFTs, and the metaverse. The discussions were joined by representatives from industry players including The Sandbox and Beats by DRE.

In another effort to propel regional innovations, MIAM has set up a HK$1,000,000 Macau-exclusive creator’s grant fund that asks creators to create Macau-themed avatars, buildings, and games in The Sandbox.

“We would like to express our gratitude towards the visitors who came to our exhibition, H853 Fun Factory, Mr. Cai, all the participating artists and collectors who generously lent their art. We would not have been able to create a ‘Dream Space’ without their unwavering support. This is also an example of how we mobilize our resources to facilitate metaverse and NFT talk in the region.” Mr. Ao added.
