@TheMahaDAO

3) The idea has been around since June 2021, when @TheMahaDAO introduced the concept of 'Valuecoins'. The world's first Valuecoin, $ARTH 💲 , was released as an attempt to create inflation-proof and crypto-native coins with stable purchasing power.

@Sony

1) @Sony has filled a patent concerning their plans to integrate NFTs in their ecosystem … why should you care?

A short 🧵

@Sony

@Sony 2) While the marriage of NFTs and Gaming is old news 🎮 , interoperability in NFTs and the metaverse remains more of an aspiration than reality, as most NFTs, specially those related to metaverse and gaming, only has utility within their native ecosystem (game, metaverse, etc).

3) Sony’s latest patent emphasizes interoperability and transportability … meaning? You can win an NFT 🏅 in one game or counsel and use it in different ones.

Sony goes further, and plans to make its NFTs interoperable across different ecosystems, such as Xbox and cloud gaming.

2) Scientific research and publishing are two fairly centralized practices. Many scientists find themselves inclined to publish on trendy topics, and prioritize frequency over quality, to increase their chance of funding.

3) Against the universality of science, a large amount of scientific data is published in paid journals or kept in private databases. The Open Science movement tried to push for more sharing, but journals responded by charging high fees to publish any research as open source.
