2023-03-21 14:30:50 Coinsilium boosted as new multiverse NFT standard is approved on Ethereum

The NFT standard is described, in a statement, as a significant contribution to building interoperable Web3 infrastructure on the Ethereum blockchain, and, it is fully compatible with, the most popular NFT standards today (ERC-721 and ERC-1155). Coinsilium last year completed a pre-seed funding of USD200,000 in Metalinq, the developer of the new NFT standard.

The success of Web3 games and virtual worlds relies on, among other factors, the ability of the users owning and trading NFTs as in-game items, wearables, virtual land, and other digital assets. “The current inability to port assets between different games and platforms limits the overall development of Web3 games and virtual worlds. Travia added: “The fact that the Tech team at Metalinq are the authors of the ERC-5606 Standard also bodes extremely well for Metalinq and its potential to become the ‘go to’ tech partner for leading metaverse and Web3 game developers.”

2023-03-18 06:54:02 Coinbase NFT Launches Creator Hub To Drive Web3 Innovation

Coinbase NFT announced the introduction of the Creator Hub, a creation hub aimed at simplifying the process of launching an NFT collection and developing a Web3 community. The news is rather amusing considering the reaction Coinbase faced for putting its Creators Drop function on hold earlier this year. However, the firm continues to introduce new features and products.

The Creator Hub will serve as a one-stop shop for creative tools. Users may use these tools to begin NFT collections in three steps: picking contracts, minting preferences, modifying photos, descriptions, price, and minting time, and finally, adding them to their collections. The wallet is currently available for purchase on the market. The Creator Center may also assist users in developing Discord bots to follow NFT sales (on Coinbase NFT, OpenSea, and LooksRare), query and download complete lists of NFT holders, integrate NFT collections on personal websites, and construct token-gated experiences.
