HOFA Launches London’s First DAO for Art Collectors, 11 November 2022
LONDON, England - October 26, 2022 - (Newswire.com)
Founded in 2012, pioneering international contemporary art gallery HOFA Gallery will celebrate its tenth anniversary on 11 November 2022 by launching London's first ever decentralized, blockchain-powered community of contemporary art collectors called HOFA DAO (Decentralized Autonomous Organisation).
HOFA DAO's new art community-led organisation will allow its members to make all decisions regarding the governance of their art portfolio, such as voting for new acquisitions. HOFA's vision is to make investing in contemporary art open and accessible to all by using Blockchain technology. It is a natural next step for a company that has a strong record in creating accessible art experiences across contemporary art and blue-chip investments.
HOFA Co-founder Elio D'Anna says about the HOFA DAO, "Whilst the NFT digital collectibles market has declined in the last 10 months, we have seen a 20% increase in collectors investing in physical assets via the use of NFT authentication and blockchain technology. That's the unique aspect of the HOFA DAO; membership is obtained via NFT passes giving access to investment-grade physical artworks. So, the collector benefits from the dual security of the blockchain with the stability of the traditional art market."
He adds, "This is the new beginning to HOFA's second decade of pioneering art experiences."
The founding artist members are 100 highly selected global artists and the $3,000,000 portfolio includes works by blue-chip artists like Daniel Arsham and Invader, as well as established and emerging contemporary artists such as Jan Kaláb, Zhuang Hong Yi, Ilhwa Kim and bio-generative artist Agoria.
The first issue of 1,111 (of 3,333) HOFA DAO NFT membership passes is available on 11 November at 3 pm (GMT), each valued at $250 and available through Magic Eden's Ethereum Launchpad, purchasable with crypto, Apple Pay and all major credit cards.
Members will enjoy fractional ownership of the tokenised portfolio, and profits from auctions and monthly sales will happen on-chain and be distributed via smart contracts, ensuring transparency across the ecosystem and its cryptocurrency ARTEM Coin. Other membership benefits include VIP access to exhibitions, art fairs, early releases and access to HOFAVERSE, a new interactive multi-user Metaverse VR gallery.
Jack Lu, CEO and Co-Founder of Magic Eden, says about partnering on the HOFA DAO project, "At Magic Eden, we are constantly seeing the NFT space evolve. The trend for blockchain technology's use in securing tangible assets is rapidly growing and we're excited to bring HOFA DAO's inaugural portfolio of masterful artworks come to market through Magic Eden's world-class Launchpad."
Danilo S. Carlucci of Morningstar Ventures says about investing in the HOFA DAO, "Since at Morningstar Ventures we are increasingly investing our resources in establishing new NFT-related ventures, partnering with HOFA on this DAO project allows us to explore new use cases. The marriage between art and web 3 is here to stay, and we are just getting started to see new ideas and concepts coming to fruition."

TORONTO - October 26, 2022 - (Newswire.com)
BOMB Money has announced a major step forward with their upcoming blockchain and mobile app releases. With Ankr AppChains, an end-to-end engineering solution for creating and launching app-specific blockchains, Ankr will build and power the new BOMB Chain used to support the BOMB Mobile App. This alliance will allow for the highest levels of transparency and security for all users of BOMB Money products.

The app will be powered by BOMB Chain, our own custom-built blockchain whose native token, BOMB, is algorithmically pegged to Bitcoin - the first of its kind! Grants will be available to encourage and enable developers to build on BOMB Chain. Both products will be released Q4 2022.
Ankr's solution includes integrating the new BOMB Chain with Chainscanner, a new platform where all BOMB Money users can view all on-chain information and transactions while easily participating in any upcoming native staking or governance features.
BOMB Money is offering early investors an opportunity to invest in the blockchain's success with its venture capital program to support both product releases. BOMB Money is looking to raise an additional $1.5M with a lucrative VC and private investment proposal. Details can be found here: https://www.bombmoney.com/investor-relations

HTC VIVE Partners With Imversed for an Innovative Mixed Reality Experience
HTC, one of the leading tech companies in the world, is proud to announce its partnership with Imversed in bringing mixed reality to life. HTC has its own virtual reality headset with VIVE, and Imversed presents an opportunity to combine HTC's existing technology with alternate reality adaptation.
Virtual reality, the simulated experience that employs pose tracking and 3D near-eye displays, has taken the world by storm over the last decade. While many imagined that virtual reality alone would pioneer the future, companies like HTC believe that mixed reality—a combination of virtual and alternate reality—will be what truly aids us in our daily lives.
HTC's VIVERSE is an existing metaverse ecosystem that connects people from all walks of life to an open and accessible virtual world. They aim to empower all users to explore, work, and play in a safe environment. Art galleries, meeting collaborations, and video games are already just a few of the options and solutions HTC provides through VIVE. Their partnership with Imversed brings them closer to integrating current virtual reality technology into mixed reality.
While virtual reality requires a headset or helmet that completely covers the user's field of vision, alternate reality uses applications through more common devices like smartphones. "We believe AR will be a mind-blowing future, but nobody's tackling that right now," says Ed Ow, Chairman of Imversed.
Imversed prides itself on creating the first mixed-reality landscape that invites all users to collaborate and transact in innovative ways. Mixed reality seamlessly blends virtual reality with alternate reality in everyday life. "We want to build something like Ready Player One," Ow explains. "You can upload any avatar, combined with AR and VR, to bring them to real-life utility."
Instead of a single, centralized organization operating within the metaverse, Imversed brings together a multitude of entrepreneurs, companies, and businesses to interact and trade. With its own virtual economy, individuals can break into new virtual professions that bring genuine value, allowing users to earn money with just a headset.
Imagine strolling through a subway station filled with virtual properties—for example, an Apple store. Through an app or a simple pair of AR glasses, you can go inside, virtually pick up and try out phones and devices, and purchase products with a click of a button, all while you are on your way to work. Later, the same day, your purchase is shipped to your house by a drone. This allows for an ever-changing landscape and endless possibilities for leading companies and fresh entrepreneurs alike to get their products into the hands of consumers with lower upfront costs.
Imversed's first demo is expected to go live at the end of October. In December, Ow expects to launch lands, commit to their first sales, and show a fully-functional app demo. "I believe that Imversed has the makings of something very explosive."

NuLink Announces Phase 2 Testing of Privacy Preserving Testnet ‘Horus’ Following Success of Phase...
SINGAPORE - October 20, 2022 - (Newswire.com)
The NuLink Network team is pleased to announce that it has reached its first milestone of 1,000 running worker nodes for its testnet "Horus" less than a month after it launched testing on Sept. 15. NuLink now invites members of the global community to participate in the second phase of testing that involves its secret file sharing service.
Horus - a PRE privacy preserving decentralised network - is NuLink's testnet for developers and community members that enables them to test and implement proprietary security infrastructure components into their Web3 applications. Its onchain part is based on BSC testnet, and it comprises four components: the NuLink Staking Dapp, the NuLink Worker Node, the NuLink Agent and the NuLink File Sharing Dapp.
The NuLink team is excited by the success of Phase 1 testing, with almost all of its 1,000 nodes being launched by community members. It is now looking to attract even more testers for Phase 2 with testing bounty rewards and airdrops planned. Phase 2 of testing will close on Dec. 31.
"We were pleasantly surprised to see so many skilled and passionate BUIDLERs joining us to test 'Horus' during such a bear market," said David Jiao, NuLink CEO. "The NuLink team was working hard to launch 'Horus' as scheduled and the robust participation of the community in testing is validation that we are onto something that creates value for its users. We welcome more testers from the global community to join us for Phase 2."
NuLink CTO Pawn said 'Horus' was just the beginning.
"Horus network is just a teaser of NuLink's privacy preserving infrastructure," said Pawn. "Many more Web3 Dapps could be built based on its privacy preserving features such as encrypted NFT, secret social network, DDRM and so on. Our final goal is to guarantee that data ownership fully belongs to the data owners. We believe that is the true value of Web3.0."
About NuLink
NuLink provides privacy-preserving technology for decentralized applications via APIs. We enable and make it easy for developers, startups, small businesses and enterprises to build their own applications with all the best security and privacy practices.
