The one feature I promised in 2015 that I never shipped and why it's still the most important one.

Bored Ape Yacht Club: ORB Review
This review of Bored Ape Yacht Club NFT or ORB collection in the scope of my ORB Review framework. Conclusion Bored Ape Yacht Club (BAYC) excels in terms of immutability. No resources are stored on centralized servers. As for ownership, the collection offers a very permissive license for the asset art. However, this is a double-edged sword that can impact scarcity. While it is unlikely that the collection will disappear anytime soon, it would be beneficial if BAYC provided more time-proof inf...

The ORB Rating System
NFTs are a new medium, and we are barely scratching the surface of their power to provide humanity with a decentralized, immutable ledger. NFTs allow the inscription of creations such as art and other assets in the legacy of humanity. Some have compared early NFTs to cave paintings, as they bear witness to the footsteps of human creativity. While we are still laying the groundwork for future generations, preserving this patrimony, protecting collectors from fraud, and allowing for co-creativi...

Author description: The Lake Zug, under the watchful gaze of the mountains, holds more than water; it mirrors the pulsating energy of a thousand cryptocurrencies. A vibrant dance of etheric lights shimmers across its surface - a visual symphony of the ceaseless transactions, each light a coin, each ripple a blockchain reaction. To these remarkable colleagues, I dedicate this heartfelt tribute and remain forever grateful for the enchanting chapters we authored together.
The token will be issued initially on Ethereum and Polygon in the following contract.
Polygon : 0x9ba25a4303ac7b3eb7fcf312acae25e06e912450
Ethereum : 0xC5526c1285adfb0D97b71Fe9ADb150f21dEeBB3b
The number of tokens issued on two contracts pointing to an IPFS hash will determine the total supply of this asset. The supply will be distributed over three months after the first distribution, and any ORB distributed by other contracts will not represent ownership of the asset. A holder of the asset can create new tokens on a different ledger, as long as the ratio 1:1 is maintained and they can prove that the original token is unspendable or destroyed. The new token metadata must link to this permapage and provide immutable proof to validate the new claim.
This page is designed to be understandable centuries after its publication. This page is intended to describe permanently the story of this ORB or commonly called NFTs.We use the word ORB as Ownership Recorded on Blockchain, as NFT stands for non-fungible tokens, Non-Fungible Token is describing a way to encode data on the blockchain but it can change in the future, it could be wrapped into fungible tokens, fractionalized or a new way in the future. With the word ORB, we want to describe the intention to give provable ownership of a certain asset by writing it on a ledger “blockchain”.

Blockchain technology is in its infancy. We can already foresee the power of an immutable ledger for humanity. But the technology is young and not completely defined yet. Our internet browsers are not designed to access decentralized and immutable storage. For this reason, on this page you will find images and resources displayable in our current browsers using mostly HTTP protocol but as well as current working solutions for decentralized and permanent storage.
