Why The Metaverse Is Already Broken (And How To Fix It — Chapter Two)

A guide to finding good web3 games and avoiding scams in 10 steps So you decided to look into NFT gaming and play-to-earn games on the blockchain. Is it really possible to make money just by playing? Is it still possible during a market crash? Once you start getting into web3 gaming, sometimes you get more questions than answers. So I want to help you with a series of articles on the topic. Rug pulls Possibly the first thing you come across after starting your research is an abundance of scams, rug pulls and pump-and-dump schemes. What is that? Rug pulls and pump-and-dumps are similar in meaning. It describes a project that drives up its value with marketing to attract investors. Then the founders sell all their assets, dropping the value to zero and leaving investors with nothing. Do your own research How to avoid scams? You might hear a lot of advice to (do your own research). But how do you DYOR when you just entered the scene? Below are 10 things we suggest you start with. Check their previous projects. Are they being truthful about their background? Were any of their projects scams? How did they deal with their previous projects failing? If they just left without saying anything or providing any meaningful resolution — it’s a red flag. Look up the founders. Are there any big names? Google them. Check their investors. If a gaming project doesn’t have one — it’s a red flag. See what the community is talking about. How are the developers responding if at all? Join their Discord server. or are there only investors waiting to cash out when the time comes? Are there players in the community who build game strategies If they aren’t — are they providing explanations and support to their community or are they staying silent? See if they’re delivering on their promises stated on the roadmap. Is anyone buying their tokens? Does the price change a lot? You can check that on , for example. Check their token activity. CoinMarketCap The truth is, the cheaper the token stays the better. Low game token prices mean that the GameFi project was designed as a game and not as an investment opportunity. https://twitter.com/Moonstreamto/status/1540062155914891264?s=20&t=ocC7HtXDqLILu1kDkjx8Nw Some blockchains have higher gas fees and slower processing times — that will become important during gameplay. Ethereum has high gas (at least before ), Ethereum’s Level 2 chains have low gas fees. Check what blockchain the game is on. the Merge Is it too expensive? How easy is it to start participating? , how successful are they? Do they have 10k NFTs and have sold only 10 of them? Check prices on OpenSea Are they all words and Discord/Twitter (a.k.a. off-chain) giveaways and do not have any blockchain development going on? There’s a big chance they want to sell you tokens/NFTs with no actual in-game utility. See if the project has any blockchain activity. Look for on-chain loyalty programs, leaderboards, airdrops, minigames, in-game items, and consumables. Think of web3 games not as an investment but as an actual game. When you can tell that the developers put emphasis on gameplay, on the fun players are supposed to be having — that’s a good sign. If you want to get rich fast — there’s a higher chance of investing in the wrong kind of project that overpromises and flops after launch. Stay tuned for more articles on how to enter and participate in blockchain gaming. If you found this post useful, leave a comment, and share it with a friend! I’d really appreciate that.

The Noonification: Elon Musk vs. Mainstream Media (4/18/2024)

The Tech Company News Brief is Changing! Starting soon, you’ll receive a new (and revamped!) version of HackerNoon’s editorial driven, once-weekly newsletter. Keep your eyes peeled! What happens when the world's richest man gets caught in the crosshairs of one of the oldest and most reputable news organizations in the world? Fireworks 🎆 It was only recently that Reuters amongst Tesla investors by reporting that Elon Musk's crown jewel was scrapping plans to produce a cheaper version of the company's electric car, causing all hell to break loose, albeit briefly. caused panic The news report prompted a decline in Tesla's stock price (~6% or so), before Elon Musk jumped in and addressed the article, reversing the downward slide. Musk's response? . Fake news According to Reuters, the reason why Tesla (allegedly) is no longer producing a cheaper electric vehicle is because it can't compete with Chinese companies that are flooding the market with their own battery-powered cars. And to drive that point home, you need look no further than Xiaomi. You see, the world's third-largest seller of smartphones is also now doubling down as an electric vehicle manufacturer, in what Chief Executive Lei Jun calls the " " of his life. And boy, Lei has reason to be proud and die peacefully, because the company's very first electric car, the SU7, has already garnered more than 100,000 orders. last major entrepreneurship project The SU7 would retail at under $30,000, below Tesla's Model 3 in China. Tesla have competed with the car with its now-scrapped cheaper version, the Model 2 electric vehicle, which was supposedly going to retail at about $25,000. But that would have just been the tip of the iceberg since some Chinese cars go for as low as $10,000 and Musk's company cannot compete at THAT price point. could certainly But all that's beside the point; the reason why everyone wanted Tesla to produce an inexpensive model was because the company's growth depends so heavily on it. In corporate America, if number not going up, it going down. And at Tesla, number definitely going down, leaving everyone very, very unhappy. real Teslas , and everyone knows it. And given that some of the higher-end models of the car are woefully out of the average consumer's reach, it makes sense for the company to focus on bringing its prices down. aren't cheap Abandoning plans for a cheaper Tesla would also serve as a reversal of Musk's vision for the company, since the eccentric billionaire had always on creating a low-cost family car after using profits from luxury vehicles. planned Anyway, news at Tesla hasn't been all that positive ever since Reuters reported the company was (allegedly) no longer going to produce a cheaper electric car. Ironically, Reuters has once again been at the forefront of all the crazy stuff going down at Tesla: Worryingly still, for Tesla at least, the company's stock has lost 35% of its value since the start of the year is still one of the most shorted stocks in American history. and Meanwhile, Musk's just sharing memes: ranked #5 on this week.

Amazon Amazon that it will stop paying developers to build apps for its Alexa voice-activated digital assistant at the end of June. The company will also no longer offer free credits that Alexa developers could use to power their programs with Amazon Web Services. recently announced "These older programs have simply run their course, so we decided to sunset them," an Amazon spokesperson was quoted as saying by . media outlets Apps created for Alexa were called "skills" and saw some developers make hundreds if not thousands of dollars every month. The $100 monthly credit to Amazon Web Services was the icing on top. But as with all things corporate America, Amazon saw that there really wasn't enough interest in its program and certainly not enough of a return to justify paying peanuts from the billions it makes every year. Oh well. Amazon ranked #14 on HackerNoon's __ __this week. Tech Company Rankings Spotify, Create a Playlist for HackerNoon!🎵 Ooh boy. I guess it was a matter of time before jumped in on the generative AI craze. Spotify Well, the company's take on generative AI is certainly more unique than others. If you're a premium user in the UK and Australia, you can now access a feature that can let youj create music playlists using prompts. That's right, anything from places, animals, genres or mood, can be used to create a playlist. So something like, a playlist for cats or tigers or for rainy days or the Eiffel Tower are all game! The tool will not produce results for non-music-related prompts, like current events or specific brands, however. So if you wanted a playlist for Louis Vuitton or Prada, you're out of luck.

Elon Musk vs. Mainstream Media

The subject line “How To Bypass The Filter” frequents the search bars of AI chatbot users far and wide. In fact, countless YouTube videos, TikToks, and Wikihow pages are dedicated exclusively to offering detailed tutorials on how to “disable” filters, when realistically they only delay them, at best. Clearly, there’s a high demand for mainstream, uncensored AI chatbot interaction. That’s where Dopple.ai comes in. Dopple.ai is a free AI chatbot that lets you interact with virtual characters based on real and fictional people. Unlike AI chatbots such as ChatGPT and Character.ai, Dopple.ai doesn’t rely on filters and biases to keep its users safe. Instead, it’s equipped with an ETM rating system (“E” for “Everyone,” “T” for “Teen,” and “M” for mature) and a full set of parental controls, operating similarly to comic books and video games. That way, Dopple.ai satisfies the individual interests of all its users. To the avail of millions, Character.ai is less open-minded than its leading competitor. Receiving backlash for its enforcement of NSFW (Not Safe For Work) guidelines and removal at moderators’ discretion, it responded with a subreddit that reads, “We do not encourage discussion of NSFW filters—our stance is final, and requesting them to be removed will result in a ban.” The issue with this stance is that it defeats the entire purpose of custom AI chatbots. Every virtual character has a unique set of personality traits, interests, and interaction styles. You can either customize your own chatbot or chat with AI versions of celebrities, TV/movie characters, and more. By filtering these chats, AI companies crush the very pillar of their undertaking: to have users believe that they’re chatting with real people. Another debate in the AI chatbot community concerns the issue of bias. In a study by U.K. researchers at the University of Anglia, results found that OpenAI’s ChatGPT contains a liberal bias, or “systematic political bias toward the Democrats in the U.S., Lula in Brazil, and the Labour Party in the U.K.,” as they wrote. Because ChatGPT relies on Internet data to generate content, it’s almost impossible to control what assumptions, stereotypes, and beliefs it collects from the Internet. This raises concerns about whether the presence of bias influences users’ views and even political or electoral processes. To mitigate the issue of political bias, Dopple.ai trains its AI chatbots to stay true to the values and beliefs of the characters they represent. As a result, users are exposed to a wide range of political views while also having the ability to choose which they prefer to engage with. Launching AI projects successfully without bias is tough, even for the biggest companies. Google’s rollout of Gemini in late February was halted after an uproar over the model’s image generation functionality. Of course, it’s almost impossible to design an AI tool that’s meant to resemble humans without facing the same issues as humans, such as censorship and bias. However, Dopple.ai is changing the game by allowing free speech laws to permeate the AI space, giving people what they want when they want it.

**USA / CALIFORNIA, March 7th, 2024/Chainwire/--**Firewall secures funding from North Island Ventures, Breyer Capital, and Hack VC to bulletproof smart contract networks. Firewall, a blockchain infrastructure startup, announced its $3.7M pre-seed round, co-led by , , and . Firewall transforms the usability of smart contract technology through an innovative finality consensus mechanism that eliminates smart contract exploits. North Island Ventures Breyer Capital Hack VC The founders of Firewall, previously the first and sixth employees at —a staking company acquired by Kraken in a landmark crypto deal—have helped breathe life into the eras of proof-of-stake and decentralized finance over the last six years. Staked In that time, the founders served institutional clients with infrastructure that handled billions of dollars, and now building on their experience, are addressing what most perceive as the final major hurdle to a full embrace of digital assets by the traditional financial system. “Firewall is building the safety rails that enable the everyday person to use the next era of the Internet,” stated , Co-Founder of Firewall. Devan Purhar “Today, billions of dollars are stolen from users, through irreversible transactions that are classifiable as theft. There’s a parallel between the current state of crypto-networks and the early internet, with a similar lack of essential security infrastructure. Our focus is not on marginal improvements; rather, we bring a required paradigm shift in the usability of blockchains. We designed a solution from first principles, and created programmable finality. Fundamentally, we make exploits a concept of the past.” Akin to a digital version of a traditional network’s firewall, Firewall’s technology introduces "programmable finality”. It extends rollups to use programmable transaction finalization rules, which act as automated checkpoints that block harmful transactions, inserted before later stages when the data is finalized by a DA layer such as EigenDA or Celestia. The founders envision Firewall as a part of every smart contract network, acting as an embedded security system that intelligently guards against threats. "Firewall uses real-time algorithms to pre-filter exploits from being included in blocks," shared , Firewall Co-Founder. Sam Mitchell "Then, by using programmable finality we automatically recover from any exploits that bypass the pre-filter checks. Detection at this stage can involve AI models or social consensus, which may take longer.” Mitchell emphasized that institutions, managing trillions in assets, are interested in the benefits of smart contracts but require a secure environment to deploy capital. “Creating comfort for institutional clients to use smart contracts will be the pivotal point for the widespread adoption of digital assets.” Past the founders, the core team is credited with successfully pioneering AI use in crypto threat detection at OpenZeppelin and Forta, and is set to revolutionize the field with Firewall's all-encompassing security approach. The startup’s initial focus is on the rollup ecosystem, and prides itself on alignment with building non-custodial and trustless solutions. The funding will help expand the team and create the community to “firewall the EVM”. Longer-term plans include developing coordination mechanisms to integrate the social layer directly into the Firewall. Travis Scher, Managing Partner at North Island Ventures, said “We believe the primary impediment to crypto’s mainstream adoption is the current security paradigm, in which a single bug can lead to a total loss of user funds. Firewall's solution can prevent such losses, and we are thrilled to support such an important company from the outset.” The funding round was co-led by North Island Ventures, Breyer Capital, and Hack VC, with participation from Finality Capital, and angels including Tim Ogilvie of Staked, Kain Warwick and Jordan Momtazi of Synthetix, Nathan McCauley of Anchorage, and Yaoqi Jia of AltLayer. “Firewall is making blockchains safer for users, developers, and institutions,” said Ted Breyer of Breyer Capital. “We see this catalyzing a new era of smart contract utility, and we’re delighted to support the team.” With the growing global adoption of crypto and regulatory spotlight, catalyzed by the BTC ETF and anticipated ETH ETF, the time for crypto-networks to become bulletproof is now. Trillions of dollars remain on the sidelines, scared to use smart contracts. Firewall's “programmable finality” which effectively neutralizes exploits, offers the security assurance needed to unlock these assets, paving the way for crypto to revolutionize the global financial system. About Firewall is dedicated to making smart contract technology safe to use in everyday life, by eliminating smart contract exploits. Their solution is akin to a robust network firewall, applied to the modular blockchain ecosystem.

Firewall Raises $3.7M To Take Smart Contracts Mainstream With Programmable Finality

When Bitcoin, and by extension, blockchain, exploded onto the financial market, the world began evolving alongside the implications of what this could mean for the world. The idea of a decentralized financial system, independent of countries and politics, seems like one ridden with potential. The blockchain technology is not only applicable in the financial sector, but it can also be adopted and used in many different industries such as legal, medical and education, and already we have started to feel its reach into many of these industries. Blockchain shows incredible potential especially in modern banking but it is not easy to implement overnight as users have to be trained and upskilled to integrate it into existing systems and practices. Furthermore, governments are still reluctant to recognize cryptocurrency, and in China, crypto transactions have been branded as illegal . However, this doesn’t mean that China is not looking into the technology behind cryptocurrency, and the government has already begun using the technology to verify identities, and as recently as May, to adapt it for industrial use. since 2021 opened a blockchain research center The biggest selling point of blockchain is the level of security it affords its users, along with the detail and coherency of its records. In the banking industry, scams and blunders are the biggest threats to the system - the United States alone lost per annum due to identity fraud; with blockchain, personal information may be retained privately while still maintaining the integrity of their verification process, creating an environment that is conducive to maintaining and encouraging trust and reliability, though the main purpose of reliable identification is primed to stop preventable losses. Money laundering and tax evasion are two challenges that may also be combated against through blockchain, with the help of A.I. or standardization. reported over USD$20 billion Retail banking sectors have been investing strongly into blockchain frameworks in an attempt to reap the benefits of the technology, and even the UK’s Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) is policies for blockchain, but it is still a few steps away from worldwide - or at least, mainstream - integration. currently developing Currently, the Society for Worldwide Interbank Financial Telecommunications, also known as SWIFT, is blockchain into its global payment initiatives, dipping its toes into both fiat and cryptocurrencies, and already we are seeing the benefits of blockchain, with less banking queries being processed on a daily basis. trying to implement The dissemination of blockchain in various payment solutions will only continue to grow and the modern generation will bear witness to the adoption of this technology, but will we see this growth in 2024? “There is no reason why blockchain technology shouldn’t be adopted by mainstream finance”, says Yuki Nakamura from , a Crypto-staking platform, was quoted as saying, “blockchain is far more secure, efficient, and cost-effective than conventional methods of banking. But like any industry that is being challenged with new technology, it will take time for the industry to evolve and adapt and accept. Blockchain was officially launched in 2009, but it was only in 2011 when it was widely recognized. A decade might feel like a long enough time for industries to warm up to the idea of the technology, but without implementation, it remains as foreign as a new entity.” Nakamura is confident that the long-term exposure of blockchain in the finance industry has warmed up the population and corporations to it being present in their everyday dealings, which means that we will be seeing a great deal more adoption of blockchain in 2024. Stakingy Blockchain should first be implemented as a security measure. As blockchain is capable of creating unique identifiers, it should also be an effective tool in both KYC and AML checks, ensuring that neither has an overlap. These unique identifiers would also have the ability to . But of course, no technology would be able to eliminate it completely as there are always loopholes that hackers and those with malicious intent are able to exploit. suppress fraud It is expected that the adoption of blockchain in the finance industry would be initially geared towards security, including creating a more secure database that includes individual management of private keys which means better sharing options and a higher level of security. It would also increase the integrity of information databases as all blocks in a chain must be validated before it can be edited, creating a highly incorruptible system. Mainstream adoption of blockchain in the financial sector is not that far off, as many industries are currently integrating it into their systems and processes, which we will continue to see in 2024 and beyond.

Is 2024 the Year Blockchain Technology Receives Mainstream Adoption in Finance?
