TheHop: MOVE Estrella Galicia’s Digital Innovation Programme Makes the Leap to Web3
The fourth edition of TheHop comes to a close this year, ending a cycle of four editions in which more than 35 pilot projects were undertaken in Spain and Brazil. The fourth edition included different leading startups and companies such as MIT, IE, Amazon, and more. In its fifth edition, TheHop will focus on WEB 3, searching the entrepreneur ecosystem for use cases related to Metaverse, tokenization of assets, cryptocurrencies, NFTs, and DAOs.
TheHop Web3 Ventures
TheHop will change its name to TheHop Web3 Ventures, placing focus on use cases related to the tokenization of assets, cryptocurrency, NFTs, Metaverse, and DAOs. TheHop Web3 Ventures begins this new program with three main collaborators: Telefónica Tech, Bit2me, and AWS, with which it will begin its first projects. TheHop will also have the full support of VALHALLA as Innovation Partner.
Program Evolution
TheHop has evolved every year, initially focusing on key areas of the Estrella Galicia group and, since 2020, with the main focus on the use of digital solutions that bring value to hospitality and the end consumer, obtaining multiple insights of value and promoting different initiatives. The evolution of TheHop has been unstoppable, adapting to the needs and opportunities of the company and the market. For this reason, TheHop is now going a step further to become TheHop Web3 Ventures, the vehicle for Web3 innovation of MOVE Estrella Galicia Digital through which the company will approach this new ecosystem.
The Move to Web3
Over the last few years, Web3 has experienced a huge growth in global adoption, and many companies are starting to position themselves in this new territory, from major technology companies to automotive companies and restaurant chains.
JJ Delgado, General Manager of MOVE Estrella Galicia Digital, stated that: "In line with our philosophy of doing things differently, we are going to immerse ourselves in the Web3 ecosystem to create and incorporate solutions that bring value to our community. We recently announced our commitment to decentralize BigCrafters.com, the marketplace for artisan products which we launched a few months ago, and where we are going to identify Web3 use cases which allow us to work towards our goal".
The aim of TheHop Web3 Ventures is to develop new internal capacities, explore the new opportunities potentially offered by Web3 and co-create different initiatives with companies that are key in the Web3 ecosystem in areas such as NFTs, cryptocurrencies, tokenization DAOs, and Metaverse, using the methodology, network, and learnings obtained through TheHop.
Gerard Gracia Arcas, Head of Digital Business Innovation at MOVE Estrella Galicia Digital, stated that: "TheHop Web3 Ventures starts this new adventure accompanied by three collaborators that are key in this sector, Telefónica Tech, Bit2Me, and AWS, and will be incorporating new allies in the coming months. Any Web3 company will be able to connect with TheHop through its new website to propose projects to bring value to the initiatives we are to undertake, and we will approach each of them based on the needs of each Project".
In 2023, the public can expect to see the first Web3 projects promoted by TheHop, and with a slew of varying initiatives already in the works, next year promises to bring exciting new developments from TheHop Web3 Ventures.

HTC Vive and Imversed Partner to Bring VR/AR Land to Larger Audience
As HTC Vive continues to commit its efforts to new and innovative technologies, the company has announced its plans to team up with Imversed. Imversed is an easy-to-use VR/AR land management platform that gives users the capability to create their own GameFi currency. This currency can be used to purchase virtual real estate, 3D assets, and experiences within the Imversed metaverse.
The partnership between HTC Vive and Imversed will help to bring VR/AR technology and metaverse to a larger audience. The companies will work together to provide a no-code platform that allows users to easily create and manage their own virtual currency pool. In addition, they will also be able to manage their digital assets, in-game items and experiences with ease, compatible with multiple metaverse platforms.
"HTC Vive is a strong partner in the VR/AR industry, and we are excited to be working with them. We believe that our partnership will help to bring Imversed's easy-to-use land management platform to a larger audience," said Ed Ow, the Chairman of Imversed.
To make the platform work, Imversed also has its own blockchain that supports ERC-721 hybrid smart contracts, which is perfectly transferable with the Ethereum chain and has an extra layer of security implemented by Imversed chain itself. This allows for a high degree of security and immutability, as well as the ability to trade in-game assets with other players. The partnership between HTC Vive and Imversed will no doubt help spur on further adoption of blockchain technology in the gaming industry.
Imversed plans to launch its public chain in mid-November and will offer the first sales of its land in December. Imversed also plans to release an avatar uploader that will allow users to easily upload any form of avatar, whether in GLP or VRM format. The avatar dimensions will be standardized so that they fit within the land sizes available in the Imversed metaverse. This will ensure that users have a smooth and seamless experience when navigating between virtual worlds.
Imversed believes that the definition of a metaverse is the word "meta," which means to encompass all things and be a very open-minded company. Imversed is committed to making the metaverse easily accessible to anyone from any platform, including those from other metaverse projects.

Mobile or Desktop Crypto Wallet? NOW Wallet Has Both Versions
LOS ANGELES - November 2, 2022 - (Newswire.com)
In addition to its original mobile version, NOW Wallet, a non-custodial crypto wallet developed by the same team behind ChangeNOW, has also launched a desktop application. This update makes the highly-rated crypto wallet, which doesn't require registration and doesn't store users' private keys, even more convenient.
The Same Functionality, but on Desktop
As part of ChangeNOW's commitment to providing its users with the best user experience possible, NOW Wallet's desktop version was designed to streamline the user experience and make it easy to access digital assets across different devices.
NOW Wallet can be restored via seed phrase on the computer and used as desired, allowing for more options in digital asset management thanks to a wider screen.
NOW Wallet is free of custody, which means that it doesn't collect personal data and guarantees the ultimate level of privacy and security to the user.
NOW Wallet allows users to store, exchange, buy, and sell cryptocurrency, choosing from tens of thousands of trading pairs. The desktop wallet supports fiat-to-crypto transactions so that users can purchase and sell crypto with Visa, MasterCard, and bank transfers, just like in the mobile app. On top of that, all transactions are completed in five minutes on average.
With a laptop or computer, users can now access the full range of features when a mobile app is not enough. With support for 30+ blockchains and more being added regularly, NOW Wallet also lets users store any existing token on seven of the most popular networks - Ethereum, Binance Smart Chain, Polygon, Avax C-Chain, TRON, Klaytn, and Solana - regardless of whether the token is displayed as supported. The wallet will show it when it is received.
NOW Wallet also offers a WalletConnect feature that may come in handy in the newly rolled-out desktop version. It is now possible to access any decentralized application (dApp) running on Ethereum, Binance Smart Chain, Polygon, and Avax C-Chain from a laptop or computer.
Staking functionality will soon be added to the desktop version of NOW Wallet, mimicking its mobile app sibling. Currently, it's possible to stake TRX, ATOM, SOL, BNB, and native NOW Token, with even more opportunities to earn passive income coming soon.
NOW Wallet has a 24/7 operational support team that responds promptly to any inquiries. On ChangeNOW Twitter the latest news can be found, and on NOW Wallet Telegram Channel the active users can share feedback and chat with other members of the community.
Greater Security and Operational Speed
The desktop version of NOW Wallet provides the best of both worlds — a powerful yet user-friendly crypto wallet to manage and store digital assets on a computer or laptop.
Non-custodial wallets are known for their high security, while desktop versions are even less prone to security breaches, as they are not always online.
A desktop version is also faster due to the larger capacity of computers, resulting in wallets being created in mere seconds.
Conclusion
With this desktop version of NOW Wallet, users can access it from their computers and laptops just as easily as they do from their mobile devices. It can be downloaded from the official website. Mobile is the best version for those who like to manage their crypto assets on the go, whereas desktop is the best version for those who prefer handling crypto assets at work or at home on their PCs. NOW Wallet remains user-friendly, non-custodial, and secure, but now it can be used in more ways.

DCB World: Expanding the NFT Market Beyond Crypto for Romero Britto’s Art
DCB World has announced the expansion of its project beyond the crypto world, launching its mobile application that allows users to own a Romero Britto NFT using credit cards, Apple pay, Google pay, and others.
It is considered a big step towards democratizing the onboarding and use of NFTs by allowing a wider range of fans to access and own this high-utility NFT that serves as a lifetime ticket.
DCB World launched its first NFT in collaboration with the most licensed artist in history, Romero Britto, last year. The NFT, besides its artistic value, has many utilities, most notably its Lifetime Weekly Draws of a total prize pool of 61,000 ETH ($90,000,000) and its Guaranteed Winning draws triggered whenever 888 tickets are purchased, guaranteeing three winners for 11 ETH each.
The DCB World's Britto NFT is original art by a renowned artist, in addition to a gaming dimension that DCB World innovated for the NFT community. The NFT serves as a ticket with a unique number allowing its owner to enter lifetime draws. This makes it the first non-fungible ticket that never expires while fully transparent and automated on the blockchain through the use of Chainlink technology. Taking personalization to another level, the DCB X Britto NFT holds a unique six-digit number chosen by the holder when minting; it can be a birth date, anniversary, or simply the combination of one's lucky numbers.
The project will give holders different utilities, such as access to exclusive play-to-earn games that the DCB team is innovating. Owners of this NFT will also have the option to order a physical version of their virtual art, signed by none other than Britto himself.
"Looking at the crypto community, we have to navigate challenges and allow access to those who are not yet very familiar with this new world, where only a few million have purchased NFTs. This is why we at DCB engineered a way where anyone can own a unique Britto-designed NFT and get access to all its utilities, including huge unlimited draws. All you need is a one-time purchase, with or without crypto tokens or a wallet. Accessibility and expanding this world is a fundamental belief at DCB World." - Ayman Jomaa - Founder at DCB World.
Britto has exhibited in galleries and museums in over 100 countries.
He is an activist for charitable organizations worldwide and an artist who believes, "Art is too important not to share." Fusing pop art and graffiti with Cubist abstraction, his vibrant colors and bold patterns evoke feelings of pure joy, hope, and aspiration. He creates a visual language of love and happiness that inspires millions worldwide.
DCB World is committed to giving back to the community. A portion of the proceeds will benefit several organizations and initiatives like INARA. Watch for regular updates on Twitter, Telegram, Instagram, and Discord.
