iM Intelligent Mining Taps Roy Phillips as Advisor to Advance Green Mining Efficiency

Las Vegas, Nevada, 27th July, 2021,
iM Intelligent Mining (iM), a provider of environmentally responsible energy solutions for powering cryptocurrency mining operations, is delighted to welcome energy veteran Roy Phillips to join its Board of Advisors.
Roy is the founder and CEO of REP Energy, a photovoltaic solar project developer that works with investors and private parties to maximize the opportunities available in the renewable energy business.
With over three decades of experience, Roy’s industry insights will be invaluable as iM continue to shape the landscape of large scale blockchain mining operations. 
Roy’s experience has been focused on accelerating the clean energy transition. His previous roles include advising governments, utilities and others across North America in the areas of energy efficiency, renewable energy, and clean mobility.
With rising worries over huge electricity usage in blockchain, the mining sector has recently been facing increasing public scrutiny. iM has come up with a graceful solution that completely shifts the blockchain mining model by establishing autonomous, solar-powered rigs built in the desert and owned by a decentralized network of iM token holders. 
iM Intelligent Mining solves the industry pain points around power consumption, environmental damage, centralized block-mining operations, blockchain network scaling, and high barriers to entry for individuals and developing countries. 
Short term goals in iM’s roadmap are to establish the first mining farm and build a DApp. Ownership is represented by the iM token, whose holders retain fractional ownership of autonomous mining farms and take 60% of operations’ profit. The utility token also provides staking rewards to the holder over time and can be used to stake in exchanges and liquidity pools. 
In addition to mining rewards distributed to the community members, 9% of iM’s profit goes towards community operations, 30% are reinvested, while 1% goes to the iM non-profit, dedicated to further developing hardware, software, and infrastructure efficiencies.
Comment – Roy Phillips
In addition to leading his firm, Roy Phillips contributes to public policy through his involvement on several volunteer boards and committees. He will leverage his energy technology expertise and industry knowledge to provide guidance and direction to iM’s executive team through its continued growth and development as a blockchain mining optimization leader.
iM’s sustainable decentralized solution, the IM Green Protocol, provides an investment structure that begins with solar energy production. It aims to power the blockchain future while protecting the environment and maintaining the economic viability of the industry. 
iM’s adoption of green energy will eventually provide the blockchain activity with free electricity and allow all miners/investors to have a hand in energy production. 
Crypto-mining activity takes up an enormous amount of energy as permissionless blockchains rely on proof of work to process transactions and ensure network security. Aside from its environmental impact, energy is the main operational cost for miners, and there is fierce competition to come across the cheapest sources of power.
iM’s highly efficient and streamlined operation is built at scale, making its low-cost renewable electricity solution a more attractive option than personalized rigs. 
About iM Intelligent Mining
iM Intelligent Mining is a decentralized blockchain mining operation that employs the use of autonomous, solar-powered mining rigs to provide free electricity to the blockchain. iM token holders enjoy the benefits of owning both a solar panel farm and a mining rig without the complications of building it themselves. Advanced cooling technology, bulk purchase of equipment, and streamlined operations maximize profits and provide revenue for maintaining equipment and reinvesting in growth.

European Digital Identity: Talao Announces Professional Credential Solution

Paris, France, 27th July, 2021,
Talao, a blockchain-based Digital Identity specialist for the Human Resource industry, today announced a professional credential application to transform identity and data management for the Human Resources industry. The application is the first Decentralized Self-Sovereign Identity (SSI) solution built on the Tezos blockchain for the Human Resources industry. The digital wallet created by Talao will enable companies to issue verifiable professional credentials and for employees to store work history and other personal data. 
“The Europe Digital Identity strategy is clear, companies will soon interact through Digital Identity Wallets with their employee and non-employee workforce. These applications will provide authentication, credentials exchange, messaging or documents signature. By building on Tezos and collaborating with Nomadic Labs and Spruce we aim to contribute to the decentralized infrastructure for the future of work. An infrastructure where privacy, security, simplicity and verified data are the norms.” explains Thierry Thévenet, COO of Talao.
Talao’s solution follows the European self-sovereign identity framework (ESSIF) recommendations to comply with the future EU Digital Identity toolbox. It is based on the Self Sovereign Identity model (SSI)  and W3C standards for Verifiable Credentials and Decentralized Identity (DID). It is powered by the Spruce Credible open source SDK, the first SSI wallet to use the Tezos blockchain as a register for its identifiers (DID). Credible uses an implementation of the Presentation Request Specifications of the W3C, which allows the exchange of credentials between SSIs.
Use case for the Talao credential wallet include:
Job seekers share their career records without multiple background checks and verification overhead and value their work experiences as certified credentials,
Companies reduce resume fraud and accelerate the recruitment of the best talent,
Freelancers prove their identity, skills and credentials when joining gig platforms, enabling frictionless onboarding. Platforms benefit from reducing fraud without collecting sensitive user data,
Companies and workers benefit from passwordless authentication, reducing the risks of stolen data and reuse of this data to compromise access to enterprise or talent assets.
Oana Ladret-Piciorus, Managing Director at Nomadic Labs, specialist of Tezos blockchain concludes, “We are excited to see Talao’s professional credential wallet facilitate citizens’ control over their identity and professional data. Congratulations to Talao’s for creating a fully open-source wallet compatible with the standard adopted by the EU for Digital Identity.”
The use of a fully decentralized wallet based on a public blockchain like Tezos offers unique advantages. The blockchain architecture gives users complete control over which aspects of their identity, data and certificates they share with third parties. The wallet provides a transparent history of shared data and allows users to track who shared what data and when.
The application will be available on Google Play Store and Apple App Store on the 15th of September. The full code will be released under MIT open source licence. 
Beta access is available upon request at [email protected] for companies wanting to experience blockchain in the HR context and to anticipate the deployment of the European Digital Identity framework proposed by the European Commission.

Zeronauts: The World’s First Sustainability Assessment Platform for Cryptos

Zeronauts is launching the one and only sustainability assessment platform for cryptos. The project brings ecological and social responsibility to the crypto universe and in turn, lets users hold and earn its tokens. The work done by Zeronauts is one of a kind and it actually sets an example and emerges as a leader in the industry.

About Zeronauts

Zeronauts is a community-driven platform that assesses the sustainability of cryptos. It lets users earn ZNS tokens for providing reviews on the ecological, social and economic sustainability of crypto projects. All the assessments are based on tested and proven scientific methods. It also builds an ecologically sustainable NFT platform. This platform is the backbone for introducing NFT sustainability labels to the crypto market. The sustainability NFT labels let investors find crypto projects according to their own choices. Long-term goals include building the Zeronauts DEX, a decentralised and sustainable exchange platform as well as a learning platform with focus on sustainability.

The ZNS tokens are fairly launched and are programmed for automatic liquidity pool acquisition and burn. The tokens are also automatically extracted for assessment needs and charity. Zeronauts donate to charities every month that are selected by the crypto community. This way, it supports sustainable projects outside the crypto world. Users can earn tokens passively by just holding ZNS. 2% of every transaction is given back to the holders in proportion to the number of tokens they hold.

Problems In the Crypto Industry

Cryptocurrency has boomed since its critical beginnings a decade ago. Nowadays every other person not only owns crypto, but has also apparently created their own tokens. Crypto is becoming an accessible way of making money and the more it proliferates, the more it bends the rules. Corporate Social Responsibility is only taken seriously by companies that have a good social presence. But small and often overlooked industries like crypto are the ones that need CSR the most. Crypto mining hugely impacts the environment with its extensive energy consumption and irreversible carbon footprints. Only fewer countries have active restrictions for this.

Solutions Offered by Zeronauts

Zeronauts gives back to the environment and society by acting as a sustainability assessment platform that is run by a community of people. This way, it checks the boxes of being responsible and contributing towards the resolution for climate change. The sustainability rating platform aids in creating a more sustainable crypto universe. It helps in spreading the awareness of this global need to crypto users.

PlasmaFinance Launches on Polygon – Cryptonewspan

PlasmaFinance Launches on Polygon – Cryptonewspan

Users can benefit from ‘easy DeFi’ by moving liquidity to PlasmaSwap and enjoying the superior speed and cost of Polygon.

New York, USA, July 23, 2021 –  PlasmaFinance, a cross-chain DeFi aggregator enabling users to manage their portfolios through a single interface, has today announced that it has launched on Polygon the entire suite of DeFi protocols that sit on its native DEX ‘PlasmaSwap’. Polygon is a protocol and a framework for building and connecting Ethereum-compatible blockchain networks.

This move will enable its users to take advantage of Polygon’s low ‘gas’ fees and high speeds. PlasmaSwap users can now add liquidity and trade with near-zero fees; in fact, the fees will be around one thousand times lower than when transacting on Ethereum.  Polygon has been in the news for all the right reasons recently, projected as the alternative to Ethereum. This is because it resides on the same network and has all the advantages of Ethereum built-in, but with much lower fees.

Regarding today’s announcement, Ilia Maksimenka, CEO and Founder of PlasmaFinance comments: “We don’t and won’t stand still in driving down the barriers to DeFi adoption, lowering the learning curve, and in placing the tools for financial freedom in the hands of users. It is our mission to make it simple and attractive for new users to embrace and interact with DeFi protocols, and for both new and existing users to get the best price and speed. In using PlasmaSwap DEX on Polygon, we have once again made a major step forward in fulfilling our mission.  

“There no longer needs to be a trade-off between “fast and cheap” and “everything else”  thanks to PlasmaFinance’s integration on Polygon. Finally, users can truly get the best of both worlds. Our platform is already supported by many top protocols, and the PlasmaPay wallet is integrated with various exchanges and an external service provider buy/sell crypto using their bank accounts, credit card, and much more. Our journey to bringing easy and efficient DeFi adoption to everyone continues.”

“We are excited to welcome DeFi projects such as PlasmaFinance to join the ranks of Aave, Sushiswap, Curve, and Balancer in building on Polygon”, adds Sandeep Nailwal, co-founder and COO at Polygon.

There has been increasing frustration among DeFi users at the extremely high gas fees incurred on the Ethereum network.  PlasmaFinance partly addressed this issue earlier this year through an intermediary solution by introducing gas optimization features, but today’s announcement will undoubtedly be welcomed with open arms among new and existing users.

In order to prove the power of Polygon, PlasmaFinance tested the fees and speed when it rolled out its PPAY Coinmarketcap Earn campaign last month.  The results were impressive: PlasmaFinance distributed $100,000 worth of PPAY tokens to 20,000 addresses spending just $0.30 and attaining transaction finality in two seconds.

For those already trading on DEX on Polygon, PlasmaSwap will bring added benefits including portfolio management and market data on all DeFi and crypto tokens, a friendly and intuitive user experience, advanced trading tools such as Limit Orders for capital and risk management, setting Take Profit, Stop Loss, and Future Orders for upcoming token listings.

Users simply need to bring their liquidity to PlasmaSwap on Polygon. In doing so, they will also be able to launch and participate in IDOs across all platforms with IDO Launchpad Alliance and SpacePort. IDO Launchpad Alliance gives users a full overview of all IDO platforms, including IDOs that are live and upcoming in one place.

DeFi Projects can also take full advantage of the benefits today’s announcement brings.  They can launch their own fully customizable and decentralized IDOs with SpacePort. Also, they can leverage PlasmaFinance and Polygon for superior DeFi capabilities; launching liquidity, swapping pairs, and new liquidity mining initiatives on PlasmaSwap will enable projects users to also benefit from easy and convenient DeFi at fast speeds and low costs.

About PlasmaFinance

PlasmaFinance is a DeFi dashboard that aggregates the most popular decentralized finance protocols from multiple blockchains. The PlasmaFinance platform provides the industry’s most robust analytics, easy-to-use tools, and access to the most profitable DeFi yields across any protocol.

PlasmaFinance incorporates a suite of DeFi products including its own PlasmaSwap DEX, advanced trading and gas optimization tools, fiat on/off ramp for DeFi as well as an IDO launchpad, SpacePort.

Valuart Launches Auction of NFT Derived From Banksy’s ‘Spike’

Valuart Launches Auction of NFT Derived From Banksy’s ‘Spike’

Lugano, Switzerland, 22nd July, 2021,
Valuart, a startup that mints licensed NFTs derived from original artworks, has launched its first drop. The auction for ‘Spike,’ a digital artwork based on the iconic Banksy installation that first surfaced in Palestine, commenced on July 22. 50% of the proceeds raised from the sale will go to charity.
Created by infamous street artist Banksy, ‘Spike’ is now in the possession of Vittorio Grigòlo. The world famous tenor and Valuart co-founder is auctioning a digital interpretation of the Bansky work, reimagined as a CGI artwork. In the NFT version, Spike is seen floating across the universe until it is eventually returned to its rightful place on earth, to emerge as a newly minted non-fungible token.
Vittorio Grigòlo said: “After months of hard work, we can finally share our creation with the world. I’m convinced that Valuart’s model represents the future of how we perceive, admire and give value to art and artists. This first drop is a stepping stone that will pave the way towards a very exciting future for artists and their art, as well as art collectors and art lovers.”
Following the Spike drop, Valuart plans to launch digital originals (1:1 digital clones) of some of the world’s most iconic licensed artworks. This will include ‘Mantum and the Stole’ scheduled for October 22. This unique artwork by Stefano Zanella was first worn on December 24, 1999 by Pope John Paul II to mark the opening of the Holy Door of the Vatican Basilica.
Valuart is intent on digitizing some of the most famous artworks ever created, breathing new life into a classic medium and giving NFT collectors a chance to acquire a piece of creative history. The company has on-boarded leading artists, institutions and celebrities for this purpose.
After certifying the authenticity of a given artwork on the blockchain in collaboration with the owner of the physical asset, Valuart creates a Digital Original (a perfect digital “clone”) and contextualizes it into unique stories through market-leading content creation. In doing so, it aims to foster a new standard for the NFT art market. 
“I’m thrilled to participate in this project and use my voice to create a magical atmosphere for the rebirth of this extraordinary piece of art I discovered more than a decade ago,” said Vittorio Grigòlo. “I cannot wait to share this amazing creation with the public.”
50% of the revenues deriving from the auction of the ‘Spike’ NFT drop will be dedicated to supporting those suffering from conflicts throughout the world. 
About Valuart
Valuart was founded by crypto enthusiasts Etan Genini, Vittorio Grigòlo, and Michele Fiscalini with the goal of helping artists realize the true value of their work. Valuart connects art collectors with creators, unlocking new opportunities for monetization through the medium of NFTs. By tokenizing classic artworks, Valuart is bringing the art world into the 21st century.

CoinSwap Space Adds Staking Pools With ADA Rewards

CoinSwap Space Adds Staking Pools With ADA Rewards

Tallinn, Estonia, 22nd July, 2021,
CoinSwap Space, a decentralized exchange on the Binance Smart Chain, this week announced the option to stake their native CSS token and earn rewards in ADA. This new feature, along with the ability to earn rewards in ETH and LINK, is one of a trio of staking options for CSS that have recently been launched. These new staking offer users rewards in major crypto tokens to allow them to minimise risk through the volatility the market is currently seeing.
CoinSwap was launched this year on April 30th with a comprehensive suite of DeFi options. Since then, the decentralized exchange has attracted new users through its ease of use and its low transaction fees which, at $0.20, are even less than the already very affordable PancakeSwap. Similar to PancakeSwap, CoinSwap utilizes the Automated Market Maker (AMM) model which allows its users to add capital to liquidity pools in return for native CSS tokens. 
Since the launch, CoinSwap has seen many new pairs, new features, and new staking options launched on the DEX. The goal of CoinSwap is to supply a myriad of different DeFi features on one easy to use interface and in doing so make DeFi more accessible to the average retail investor.
CoinSwap has several features that users can utilize to make interacting with deFi easier and quicker. For example, CoinSwap offers a mass harvest and mass stake option. These features allow CoinSwap users to instantly harvest all of the returns across all of their liquidity pools and either send them directly to their wallet or compound them by staking them on CoinSwap. As well as being easier and taking just a couple of clicks to do, this is also cheaper as all of the tokens are collected via just one transaction on the BSC. 
The recent volatility in the crypto market has been particularly hard on small cap tokens. While the major tokens like Bitcoin and Ethereum are currently a little above 40% of their all time high, some smaller tokens have seen losses of nearly 97%. This is why CoinSwap is offering rewards in LINK, ETH and now ADA. The long term viability of these tokens should protect them from the heaviest losses. 
Currently, as crypto might be entering a bear market, a lot of investors are seeking a place to store funds for the long term. Having the option to earn rewards in these tokens makes CoinSwap worthy of consideration for this long term storage. Another point that makes CoinSwap viable in the long-term is that CSS tokens, unlike PancakeSwaps native CAKE tokens, have a hard cap. The hard cap of 19,999,999 together with the fact that the community can decide every step of the way for the CSS to become more of a deflationary, should provide some stability through a bear market. 
CoinSwap is also a rare case where as already before launch it got audited by Certik, one of the most trusted security technology companies in the blockchain industry. Certik carried out security audits of CoinSwap’s smart contracts by testing them with an industry-leading Formal Verification Tool. The audit verifies the ability for CoinSwap’s liquidity pools and staking pools to stand up to hacks. 
About CoinSwap Space
CoinSwap Space is a suite of DeFi services built on the Binance Smart Chain. It primarily features a decentralized exchange founded on the automated market maker model (AMM) that provides the lowest fees on BSC. CoinSwap users can earn the CSS token by staking and farming capital. Users also benefit from smart routing, guaranteeing maximum yields and the lowest slippage available.

xStarter: A Decentralised Ecosystem For ILOs And NFTs On xDai

The cost of maintaining a gift card or reward system for traditional businesses can often be prohibitive for a lot of businesses. This usually means that only large businesses are able to maintain these systems. With the introduction of crypto tokens and non fungible tokens (NFTs), businesses are able to create a sort of pseudo rewards points system but these are often limited to highly technical companies. xStarter aims to provide a platform, where businesses of all sizes, can issue and maintain their very own crypto tokens and NFTs.

What is xStarter?

xStarter is a decentralised ecosystem of smart contracts  for businesses looking to take part in the crypto market.. It provides various Smart Contracts that help to launch and maintain crypto utility tokens and also mint and transfer NFTs . It runs on the xDai L2 Ethereum sidechain and businesses from all over the world can leverage the management services. xDai was chosen for this project as it uses the same EVM as Ethereum and the smart contracts work almost the same as they do in Ethereum. It is also interoperable and one can use the same wallet address to claim xDai tokens. xDai also has quick block creation and thus caters to fast transactions. 

Smart Contracts on xStarter

xStarter has three major types of Smart Contracts so far. 

  • Launchpad Smart Contract 

The launchpad smart contract lets businesses introduce their potential ILOs and get approval from the community for launch. It allows owners to provide details of the tokens that will be used by the community to vote for an ILO. 

ILO smart contract allows management to launch ILOs. This will include enforcing time locks, accepting contributions and creating liquidity pools using the HoneySwap on xDai. 

  • Governance Smart Contract 

This smart contract provides a way of voting on proposed ILOs and other community proposals. Users can stake xStarter/xDai LP tokens which lets them gain voting points and use them to vote on ILOs and resolve other issues. 

NFT Minting Contract 

With this contract, users can get ERC721 NFTs upon helping in furthering xStarter. These NFTs will have rewards attached to them. People can claim it by referring a business for an ILO or by adding to the ecosystem of xStarter. 

Along with NFTs minted as incentives by xStarter, users are able to mint, sell and transfer 3rd party NFTs.

Panda Tsuki: Launching A Fully Transparent Meme Coin For Charity

Cryptocurrency is booming as a way to make passive money. Even though it was originally created as a means of exchange for money and other assets, crypto as a currency is finding its place in the world. It is also one of the biggest communities. Crypto enthusiasts are all over Reddit and Twitter, commenting, sharing their opinions and most importantly making memes. Meme making, even though started for hysterical reasons, has become a major method of marketing. The main building block behind the crypto world is its communities. The people are the ones who provide holdership and liquidity to these. Panda Tsuki is a new addition to the crypto world and it is set out for a breakthrough.

What is Panda Tsuki? 

Panda Tsuki is a crypto token that was made for a crypto charity project. It is a completely transparent initiative. This is an effective way of money-making for institutions like charities as there is the opportunity to make passive income. With the building of the Panda Tsuki community, the number of people associated with the charity will also increase. Panda coin is built on Binance Smart Chain (BSC). Binance is the largest platform for a cryptocurrency exchange in the world. 

Meme coin 

Panda Tsuki is a meme coin. That is, it is made for the purpose of hysterics and fan following with no serious obligation. Dogecoin is a good example of how a meme coin can reach great heights. Pioneers like Elon Musk support the coin and it is something that was never expected when it was created.  But by being a meme coin, Panda Tsuki does not limit its chances of doing something good. It uses its profits completely for charity purposes. Panda Tsuki is expected to be placed with a decent price floor value upon its launch.

Cryptocurrency QWAN ICO Promises Investors Ethical Wealth Generation

Cryptocurrency QWAN ICO Promises Investors Ethical Wealth Generation

A new cryptocurrency called QWAN claims to have a model for generating ethical profits for its investors. Promising complete decentralization to all investors after eleven years, the cryptocurrency claims that the increasing centralization of digital currency is inhibiting blockchain technology from realizing its full potential for achieving equality and equity.

Unequal stake, equal vote

QWAN, the abbreviation for ‘Quality Without A Name’, is a digital token that supports decentralized voting for investing in real-world businesses to generate a profit that is then shared, and reinvested into the coin. The coin’s distinctive feature is that it steadily relinquishes all decision-making power to investors, irrespective of their stake in the coin. Even if an investor owns only a single token, their vote in business decisions will count just as much as a major investor after an eleven-year period.

Building a future for all people

The coin’s white paper states that investment decisions will initially be directed by a Council: representatives from eight different industries who will source, appraise, and invest into real-world businesses to generate wealth. All investment options will be assessed by Ethics, Finance, and Growth departments while the industries that these investment opportunities will be sourced from will be property, trading, commerce, technology, and marketing.

Fighting inequality with blockchain

QWAN emphasizes the power of blockchain technology to address wealth inequality. The coin suggests that equality of wealth will be generated as ten percent of all profits are invested into evidence-based non-governmental organizations that can demonstrate the impact of their work. QWAN strives to put out an inclusive community: any investor can put forward ideas to ensure the optimum functioning of the company. In the fully decentralized system, ideas will be voted for by the body of investors; successful ideas will be rewarded with a non-fungible token of QWAN. This open communication platform among investors is intended to generate the best ideas for maintaining the QWAN system.
