The world of blockchain technology is in constant motion, and NORDEK is proud to be at the forefront of this evolution. We are thrilled to announce that we are preparing to transition to a new, more powerful iteration of our blockchain: NORDEK, a Bitcoin Layer 2 chain. This upgrade will bring unmatched scalability, lower transaction fees, and a host of new features that will set a new standard in blockchain technology.

The Power of Bitcoin Meets the Flexibility of Layer 2

NORDEK’s Bitcoin economy will integrate the strength of Bitcoin with the versatility and efficiency of a Layer 2 network. This transition means we can provide ultra-low-cost transactions while retaining the security and trustworthiness of the Bitcoin ecosystem. With zk-rollup technology, we will ensure fast, affordable, and scalable transactions, bringing Bitcoin to the masses for everyday use. Whether it’s micropayments or large-scale transfers, NORDEK will be designed to serve the diverse needs of our community and beyond.

A Seamless Transition for Current Users

Our priority is to make this transition as smooth as possible for everyone involved. We understand that change can sometimes be daunting, but rest assured, we have carefully crafted a migration process to ensure that all current NORDEK users and token holders are fully supported. Token holders will have the opportunity to migrate their existing NRK tokens to the new token through a simple and secure claim-by-burn mechanism. Detailed guides, educational resources, and support channels will be made available every step of the way to make the transition straightforward and stress-free.

What’s Next?

The journey to NORDEK is just beginning, and we want you to be part of every step. In the coming weeks, we will release more details about the migration process, technical upgrades, and incentives for our loyal community members. You can expect a series of initiatives  designed to keep you informed and excited about this major milestone.

Stay tuned to our official channels for updates as we get ready to unveil a new chapter for NORDEK.

November 2024 – As decentralized finance (DeFi) continues to disrupt traditional financial systems, Definder Global is emerging as a high-potential platform bridging blockchain innovation with real-world applications. With over $235’000 successfully raised for a Real World assets throught a fully operational decentralized lending platform, Definder is positioning itself to meet the growing demand for accessible, asset-backed investments.

Redefining Finance with Decentralized Lending

Definder’s innovative platform leverages blockchain smart contracts to directly connect investors with businesses seeking funding. By removing traditional intermediaries, the platform offers faster, more transparent, and cost-effective solutions for both lenders and borrowers.

“Definder Global is not just another DeFi project—it’s a fully operational platform solving real financial challenges,” said Max Kolyada, CEO of Definder Global. “Our vision is to build a decentralized financial system that bridges the gap between blockchain and real-world assets, unlocking opportunities for businesses and investors.”

For example, a small real estate developer in Eastern Europe recently accessed $25,000 through Definder’s platform to fund an affordable housing project. This enabled the developer to bypass lengthy bank approval processes while investors gained exposure to a high-yield, asset-backed opportunity, earning returns secured by blockchain technology.

A Shared Vision with Industry Leaders

Definder’s commitment to advancing real-world asset financing aligns with industry leaders like DigiShares and Propchain, both of which have pioneered tokenization solutions for real estate and fractional property ownership.

What sets Definder apart is its focus on peer-to-peer lending rather than pure tokenization. By integrating decentralized loans with DAO-style governance, Definder offers a unique blend of transparency and community control.

“Decentralized finance has the potential to revolutionize how we think about investment and lending,” said Eric Kadyrov, an advisor to Definder and former UBS Head of Credit. “What excites me about Definder is its ability to deliver real impact through innovative yet practical applications of blockchain technology.”

The Rise of Real-World Asset Financing in DeFi

With a 46% compound annual growth rate (CAGR) in 2024, DeFi remains one of the fastest-growing industries globally, according to McKinsey. Within this ecosystem, real-world asset (RWA) financing has emerged as a transformative segment, offering investors a secure and accessible entry point to asset-backed opportunities.

Platforms like Definder are tapping into this trend by enabling investments in tangible assets such as real estate and infrastructure. A recent market analysis shows that RWA financing is expected to surpass $100 billion annually by 2030, driven by demand for scalable, decentralized solutions.

“Real-world asset financing through DeFi is where blockchain meets real impact,” added Kadyrov. “It’s not just about innovation—it’s about solving real-world problems for businesses and investors alike.”

An Invitation to Investors: Join the DFIND Token Presale

Definder Global is currently conducting its DFIND token presale, offering investors the chance to join a project with significant growth potential. With 74% of the previous funding round already raised, the presale offers access to the DFIND token at competitive pricing ahead of its token generation event (TGE) and planned Tier 1 exchange listings.

“This is an exciting moment for both Definder and the DeFi sector as a whole,” added Max Kolyada, CEO of Definder Global. “With the support of our advisors and the success of our early projects, we’re positioned to drive real growth and innovation in decentralized finance.”

About Definder Global

Definder Global is an emerging decentralized finance platform focused on real-world asset financing.

By leveraging blockchain technology, Definder provides businesses and investors with secure, efficient, and transparent financial solutions, aligning itself with leading projects in the space such as DigiShares and Propchain. Backed by seasoned financial experts, Definder bridges the gap between traditional finance and blockchain innovation.

•     PEPE joins forces with AI to launch DrPepe.ai on Solana
•     DrPepe.ai will release the first scientific White Paper on immortality in Q1 2025, with TGE in the coming weeks
•     The DRP points program is live – share your referral link and verify your socials on https://www.drpepe.ai/referral-program
•     Watch the trailer for immortality here: https://x.com/drpepeai/status/1856653999740514811

Meme season is in full swing in the cryptoverse. Solana meme coins like WIF, POPCAT, and now GOAT—the most recent AI meme coin indirectly endorsed by Marc Andreessen from a16z—are trading over $1 billion in daily volume on tier-one exchanges like OKX and Binance. As this trend evolves, a new breed of tokens is emerging that combines the viral nature of cyberculture with cutting-edge artificial intelligence.

AI meme coins, like DrPepe.ai for example, represent a unique intersection of blockchain technology, artificial intelligence, and popular internet culture. This combination creates a powerful synergy that appeals to both tech enthusiasts and meme-loving crypto traders.

DrPepe.ai’s recent virality stands out as a groundbreaking project poised to redefine the convergence of artificial intelligence, decentralized science (DeSci), and research on immortality. This innovative Solana-based AI meme coin claims it will deliver the blueprint to “live forever young.”

DRP & the AI meme promising immortality
 
According to DrPepe.ai, the first scientific paper on how to live forever young will be released in Q1 2025 after the AI meme coin, DRP, is set to have its TGE. The paper has been written by the AI using its own maximally truth-seeking PageRank-like algorithm.

Key Features of DrPepe.ai:

•     DRP Token: A Solana-native AI meme coin embracing cyberculture while supporting DrPepe.ai’s quest for immortality.
•     The Jarvis to Tony Stark – A personalized computational biochemistry engine designed to keep you forever young.
•     AI agents –  Running on top of an elite peer reviewed database indexed by a systems approach to ageing and is open source, immutable, real time and censorship resistant. 
•     Censorship-resistant Platform: Leveraging Arweave for permanent, decentralized storage of scientific data, safeguarding against manipulation and censorship.
•     PageRank for Immortality – Google indexed the internet prioritizing credible sources to prevent manipulation, as DrPepe.ai has done for immortality with the addition of cryptoeconomic incentives.

A maximally-truth seeking PageRank algorithm

DrPepe.ai addresses the issues of biased, closed-source, and commercially manipulated GPT models by implementing a PageRank-like system to prioritize scientific truth over commercial interest.

The inputs are known, and the presentation of specific content can be deduced, unlike the closed-source models of current AI systems (and sciences) where the levels of manipulation are unclear. The economic incentive is directed towards the open-source community through the validity and efficiency of the science. Being open-source and censorship-resistant, it can be critiqued and judged in real-time, which should be reflected in the price of the DRP token. The importance of open-source, censorship-resistant AI development cannot be overstated, as these properties provide immunity to manipulation and resistance to state-level attacks.

As the cryptocurrency market continues to rally, with Bitcoin leading the charge and meme coins amplifying gains, DrPepe.ai is uniquely positioned to capitalize on this momentum. The project combines the viral appeal of meme coins with a serious scientific underpinning, offering both entertainment value and potential real-world impact.

For more information, visit the website at www.DrPepe.ai or follow on Twitter @DrPepeai.

About DrPepe.ai:

DrPepe.ai is a revolutionary AI-powered meme coin project on the Solana blockchain, dedicated to living forever young. By merging cutting-edge AI, blockchain innovation, and internet culture, DrPepe.ai aims to make immortality a reality and accessible to all while fostering a vibrant, engaged community.
