NFT-based Fixed Lending Protocol Pledge Backed by Stanford Alumni Announces Successful Fundraise

 

Press Release: Pledge Finance is launching a cross-chain decentralized finance ecosystem, purpose-built for the financial sector following a successful private round in which it raised more than $3 million.

 

13th September 2021, Hong Kong – Pledge Finance, an algorithm-driven, multi-chain decentralized finance (DeFi) ecosystem, is announcing the launch of an NFT-powered structured collateralized lending platform targeted at the traditional financial sector. The Binance Smart Chain (BSC) based platform will be fully interoperable with other public chains, meaning other DeFi platforms will be able to interact with Pledge’s numerous product and service offerings. 

 

Pledge Bridges the Gap Between DeFi and Finance

Pledge Finance will include liquidity pools which will act as money markets so that users can exchange cryptocurrencies without the need for a centralized exchange. The interest rate for staking to provide liquidity to these money markets will be algorithmically fixed and determined by the supply and demand for the cryptocurrencies in each pool.

 

Initially, these pools will be denominated by Pledge’s native token, PLGR, meaning users will need to purchase PLGR to make exchanges between stablecoins and cryptocurrencies such as Bitcoin (BTC) and Ethereum (ETH). The algorithm will ensure that Pledge users can exchange cryptocurrencies with PLGR at fair value with little friction. 

 

In addition to using PLGR to facilitate exchanges between cryptocurrencies, Pledge’s native token will provide holders with a fixed interest rate payment if they choose to use their crypto-assets to provide liquidity for Pledge’s money, lending or derivatives markets. Moreover, unlike other lending protocols, Pledge users can create a variety of liquidity pools with different maturities for a given crypto-asset, each featuring fixed lending terms for the loans issued by the pool.

 

PLGR will have a total supply of 3 billion PLGR.

 

Pledge’s derivatives market is powered by unique derivative smart contracts, which swap fixed-rate interest payments for floating-rate interest payments, providing an essential tool for DeFi traders who might use them to hedge against speculative investments made in other pools. Owing to Pledge’s cross-chain interoperability, these pools could also exist on other decentralized platforms. 

 

The Future is Bright for Pledge 

Pledge Finance is leveraging NFTs to further differentiate itself from other DeFi protocols. Pledge will initially mint 50 NFTs, each representing a fixed-rate bond. These will be fully exchangeable in an NFT-based bond market, with each NFT representing the ownership, obligations and yield for a financial instrument. Financial institutions can use this tool to execute refinancing operations, swapping in and out of credit obligations. 

 

This approach capitalizes on the current excitement for NFTs, repurposing it to make financial products such as bonds, loans, and derivatives more accessible to the DeFi world. Pledge’s ultimate aim is to serve the trillion-dollar financial supply chain market, bringing the legacy financial sector closer to the innovative and new decentralized ledger space. This mission is further supported by the success of Pledge’s first private round which raised $3 million in December 2020.

 

About Pledge

Pledge is a trustworthy, transparent, and convenient cross-chain swap solution for decentralized financial assets. It is committed to combining NFT cross-chain circulation and multi-asset trading to simplify its transfer process, expand the current NFT market, accelerate NFT valuation/pricing by providing the trading board function and provide more convenience to all NFT users.

 

The platform itself draws upon the extensive technological and financial experience of its core management team. CEO, Tony Chan, is a serial entrepreneur and angel investor with a background in computer science holding a degree in the subject from Stanford University. In his past career, Chan helped to write part of Windows 95, which at the time of its release, became the most popular operating system in the world. Pledge’s CTO, Michael Ren, was chief artificial intelligence scientist for a Hong Kong-based peer-to-peer lending company, with revenues surpassing $10 billion annually. With 15 years of fintech, in addition, Ren is tasked with propelling the blockchain protocol, community experience, and partnerships for Pledge. 

 

Pledge’s senior product manager, Douglas Hill will lead Pledge’s product development, ensuring its suite of financial products are operationally sound and in-tune with the needs of the market. Hill has previously worked in machine learning and augmented reality, pioneering the first ML-based platform for physical therapy and the sports industry. 

 

Leveraging the support of such a competent team, combined with the prospect of interoperability, Pledge is definitely well-positioned to bring the financial sector into the future.

ZooKeeper Launch Satoshi’s Oasis Paradise: Stake $ZOO to Earn $BTC

Zookeeper Oasis

Bitcoin Press Release: ZooKeeper has launched a new staking pool called Satoshi’s Oasis Paradise, which allows users to now earn BTC, instead of XRP. 

 

17th August 2021, GENEVA, Switzerland — Built on Wanchain, the Yield farming platform ZooKeeper has announced the launch of its new staking pool, Satoshi’s Oasis Paradise. The staking pool now offers its users BTC rewards instead of XRP rewards following a vote by the community. The new pool began on the 13th of August and will continue for exactly four weeks. 

 

Satoshi’s Oasis Paradise

Satoshi’s Oasis Paradise is the latest addition to the ZooKeeper platform. Following a vote by the ZooKeeper community, all users will now have the opportunity to stake their $ZOO tokens to earn the wrapped $BTC (known as wanBTC on Wanchain) as rewards for the month. Rewards can be claimed at any time, there is no risk of impermanent loss, no penalties for entering or exiting the pool, and there are no limits on staking amounts.

 

ZooKeeper Safari Pool

The ZooKeeper Safari Pool enables users to stake $ZOO and earn rewards. Launched on the 21st of May the exciting new concept is taking off amongst the ZooKeeper community. The Safari Pool will even further benefit the users who have been focused on keeping their ZOO tokens from the beginning and reward them for their patience. The Zoo staking pools both give the Zoo token greater utility and at the same time they help boost ZooKeeper TVL (Total Value Locked). The Safari Pool process has a number of great benefits to all perspective ZOO stakers, including: 

 

  • No limits to how many ZOO tokens one can stake;
  • No lock period when staking ZOO tokens;
  • No penalty fees upon entering or exiting the staking pools;
  • The duration of each new community-voted Safari Pool will be set to four (4) weeks;

 

One pool will enable the user to stake their ZOO to earn ZOO token rewards. This pool is a permanent part of the Safari Pool section and will enable the user to stake their ZOO to earn the current community-voted token/coin. 

 

ZooKeeper Voting Process

The ZooKeeper voting process means that while a chosen staking pool is active, the community will be voting for the next pool. Thereafter, a new vote will always be started the same day as the pool launch. For each new community vote, various coins/tokens listed on WanSwap will be available to choose from. 

 

ZooRena Battles

Earlier this month ZooKeeper launched ZooRena, an exciting, unique, interactive battle game in which two opposing clans from different ZooKeeper mascots will battle once a week. ZooRena participants can choose a clan to support, add power to that clan using NFTs to boost the chance of victory. ZooRena is made even more interesting with the addition of betting on battles, which means the growing dApp offers numerous different ways in which to earn. 

 

Anyone interested can participate in the Safari adventure and earn some wanBTC, which can easily be converted to native BTC using Wanchain’s decentralized technology with minimal fees.

Musée To Launch World’s First NFT-Owned Marketplace Platform on July 20th, 2021

Museeconsole.debug(‘TRINITY_WP’, ‘Skip player from rendering’, ‘is single: , is main loop: 1, is main query: 1’);console.debug(‘TRINITY_WP’, ‘trinity_content_filter’);

Press Release: The Musée platform launches July 20th, 2021, giving creators, collectors, and investors the chance to own one of the world’s first NFT Marketplace plots.

 

6th July 2021, British Columbia, Canada – Musée is an innovative new project by the Canadian company Inverted Studios, which has combined Ethereum blockchain technology with digital art to launch the world’s first NFT-owned marketplace platform. The launch begins Tuesday the 20th of July, 2021, where the 10,000 plots will be available for purchase.

 

What is Musée?

The Musée platform is a marketplace for NFT art with a seamless digital experience, allowing visitors to explore the CryptoArts on a single large grid integrated within the web browser. The platform recreates the mesmerizing effect of navigating through an art gallery. This also ensures that all plot owners are always on the front page of the platform. Musée is the first forum to use NFTs as plot ownership and offer a full marketplace for artists and creators alike. Musée’s platform is built on top of a limited quantity of plots and utilizes the Ethereum blockchain ERC-721.

 

The World’s First NFT Marketplace Plots 

In addition to being the world’s first NFT marketplace using NFT-owned plots, the number of plots is strictly limited to 10,000 with every single one commanding a position on the website’s main page, and future digital museum. Plot owners can share their work, collections and also sell art and collectibles on each plot they own — all digitally signed for authenticity.

 

More than just a digital gallery, Musée will evolve into a creative social environment where creators and collectors engage with followers. The plots are much more than just a space to showcase a beautiful piece of digital art. Each plot will connect to an artist’s profile, as well as their collections and various art creations. It will also indicate what art is for sale, the value of that artist’s entire collection, and the social buzz that each artist’s work has: their likes, followers, and much more.

 

The more successful plots will evolve and the potential for growth is huge. As owners gain followers, so do their plots. This allows them to grow in value and increase in collect-ability as their reputation increases. Owners have an option to purchase multiple plots together, which makes for interesting creative opportunities to display their work and give themselves the potential to really stand out.

 

Disrupting Art With Innovation

Metaverse museums are the world’s first virtual museums and the next environment where millions of enthusiasts and artists will view and purchase digital artwork. Musée aims to be the pioneer for metaverse museums and establish an art revolution on the blockchain with its platform in the future.

 

Using the power of Ethereum blockchain ERC-721, Musée will break new ground by placing real, authenticated digital NFT artwork in metaverse museums. This will really help to bring artists’ work to life online. Musée is already planning integration within metaverses and potentially real galleries through upcoming partnerships. In doing so, they’ll turn the abstract into reality.

 

Musée Platform Launch

The Musée platform launch will take place at 9 AM EST on Tuesday, July 20th, 2021 offering the plots for a price of 0.5 ETH each, a fair launch and with no bonding curve.

Additionally, Musée will be running a plot giveaway on every day prior to the launch, make sure to follow them on Twitter for your chance to win daily!

 

How To Buy a Plot?

To buy one of the Musée art plots, interested parties just need to:

  1. Visit the Musée launch page.
  2. Connect their wallet to the Musée platform.
  3. Select which plot(s) they wish to purchase by clicking on it.
  4. Pay with ETH.
  5. Upload your NFT!

 

The Musée platform offers a unique opportunity for creators, collectors, enthusiasts, and consumers to come together, showcase their art and purchase original work. Own your plot and join Musée in taking part in the blockchain art revolution.

Bitcoin Press release: The ZoidPay platform enables users to use their cryptocurrencies to shop at some of the world’s leading retailers, pay everyday bills, subscriptions, and even groceries.

 

17th June 2021, Bucharest, Romania ZoidPay, a company focused on crypto mass adoption, is launching a platform where consumers can shop using their digital assets from any big retailer across the world, including Amazon, eBay, and Alibaba.

 

ZoidPay: A Pioneer For Mainstream Crypto Adoption

ZoidPay has begun building an entire ecosystem around the global shopping experience, complete with staking and DeFi mechanisms. Since its incorporation in 2018, ZoidPay has been developing a series of innovative solutions with the purpose of making cryptocurrency easily accessible for daily use.

 

Making a Global Impact in E-commerce

A recent global survey by MasterCard showed that 67% of millennials were more open to using cryptocurrency today than they were a year ago. Despite growing interest, use-cases for consumers to spend cryptocurrency are still limited.

 

ZoidPay aims to answer this increasing demand by leveraging its e-commerce solution to bring crypto retail spending into the mainstream, and increase adoption in the process. ZoidPay blends shopping with staking and other DeFi integrations, creating a unique, personalized user experience. Users can enjoy enhanced benefits, such as crypto cashback, lending, global marketplace access, and more, adding a whole new dimension to their shopping experience.

 

Online and in-store Retail Shopping Revolution

The next development from ZoidPay will be the launch of a Google Chrome extension and Marketplace. This will enable millions of people to buy anything from anywhere in the world with their cryptocurrencies, just by connecting their existing wallet. ZoidPay is a potential game-changer for the everyday crypto enthusiast who is looking for a safe, simple solution to use their digital assets for everyday expenses.

 

ZoidPay users will be able to buy a new laptop from Amazon with Bitcoin, pay their Netflix subscription with BNB, or buy weekly groceries with Ethereum. Brick and mortar shops can easily accept crypto payments by simply downloading the ZoidPay Wallet that turns any smartphone into a POS while availing the ecosystem benefits.

 

The biggest advantage that ZoidPay has over other existing alternatives is its interoperability between wallets and exchanges. The ZoidPay platform will allow users to connect to the Chrome Extension with any wallet, enabling easy integration with the Extension and the Marketplace to offer instant liquidity.

 

Eduard Oneci, Zoidpay Co-Founder & CEO stated:

 

“The focus at ZoidPay from the start has been on building a platform that’s easy and safe to use, both for the consumer and the retailer. Using our native ZPAY token, consumers can avail of massive discounts from retailers, zero transaction fees, and benefit from staking rewards. We are excited about enabling the biggest transition from FIAT to crypto in the next decade. And our journey is just getting started.” 

 

A Smooth Transition From FIAT to Crypto

With more people already using crypto than ever before and more planning to use it in the next year, ZoidPay offers the market a viable solution. The ZoidPay platform offers ease of use, security, low-cost transactions, and other features revolving around a customer-centric model.

Decentralized Gaming Platform DeFi11 Launches IDO After $3.5M Private Sale

Press Release: DeFi11, a decentralized gaming ecosystem, is introducing major changes to both revamp the platform and make it fairer to users as part of an expansion fuelled by recent funding.

 

17th June 2021, New Delhi, India – Fantasy sports have gained massive popularity in recent years. The market is expected to grow by 7% by 2024. However, a lack of regulation has allowed companies to exploit users. Many fantasy sports and virtual gaming platforms have been accused of publishing false volumes, creating fake winners, and misusing user data. DeFi11 was created to stop these unfair practices, providing a safe platform for the users. Powered by blockchain, DeFi11 eliminates centralization and maintains user privacy. In addition,  DeFi11 will tokenize gaming assets using non-fungible tokens (NFTs), allowing users to access features like liquidity pools, prediction-based smart contracts, and staking.

 

Touted as the first DeFi-powered fully decentralized gaming ecosystem in the world, DeFi11 is introducing changes for better gamification of its platform. DeFi11’s team recently announced a collaboration with Polygon (formerly Matic) to integrate its layer 2 solution with a new protocol. The new smart contract-powered protocol aims to improve the scalability and security of the platform. Some of the core benefits that smart contracts would offer include data abuse checks and the prevention of financial fraud. The creation of dummy winners – a fraudulent practice common among fantasy games – can also be restricted using smart contracts. 

 

NFT and Decentralization

 

While NFT-gaming was always a prime feature of DeFi11, it has now decided to fully integrate NFTs into its gaming ecosystem. The tokenization of gaming assets means that NFTs can be collected and traded within the game for the first time. The introduction of NFTs will also help to create a live 3D experience in the game.

 

Moreover, DeFi11 is developing a revolutionary P2P interaction feature that will pioneer the prediction market. Set to deploy in phases, the P2P interaction feature will be completely self-functioning without the need for any intervention from a third party. In its bid to further decentralize the gaming ecosystem, DeFi11 is trying to open source all the platform’s code.

 

Recent Developments

 

For DeFi11, the recent months have been quite eventful. The company was the silver sponsor of the 6th Global DeFi Congress that was held in Dubai in February this year. In May, DeFi11 announced joining hands with TDeFi, a prominent name in the NFT and DeFi world that has helped many startups over the years. Through this collaboration, DeFi11 aims to further expand its NFT space. DeFi11 also announced partnering with Biconomy, a multi-chain transaction infrastructure, to solve the issue of micro-transactions within the game. Finally, DeFi 11’s most recent funding round managed to raise just $3.5 million, resources which it will use to support further development of its unique gaming platform. 

 

Upcoming Announcements

 

Indeed, over the next few months, DeFi11 will be making a number of major announcements and rolling out several new features. This includes a second fundraising round, followed by a campaign geared towards promoting its upcoming IDO. A complete overhaul of the company website, with more details and features, is also in the works. DeFi11 also announced the successful launch of its beta app on June 1.

 

Further down the timeline, DeFi 11 plans to launch post-IDO staking, start a referral and bounty hunting program, and announce several partnerships all aimed at boosting the platform’s userbase. All precede the announcement of the platform’s first-ever IDO, the details of which will be announced later this year. 

 

About DeFi11

 

DeFi11 is a decentralized gaming ecosystem primarily centered around fantasy sports and NFT gaming. It is powered by DeFi or decentralized finance, an umbrella of financial applications that utilize blockchain. As the first crypto-fantasy gaming ecosystem of its kind, DeFi11 strives to solve the issues of transparency, accountability, and security that often plague the world of fantasy sports.

 

DeFi11 offers complete transparency and anonymity to its users. It believes in complete decentralization of the platform – including P2P transactions without involving the house. Through randomized winner selection and community governance, the platform is attempting to eliminate bias and fraud.
