SpotlightsAmericana introduces "concierge vaulting" service to public, providing blockchain-based solutions for physical collectiblesThe Opensea and 776 backed vaulting platform now opens its services to public, providing a full suite solution of an online marketplace, physical vault and verification via the blockchain.Americana has the capacity to vault an item as small as stamps, to as big as vehicles.Items listed are guaranteed by on-chain digital certificates, so they can be transacted on a digital marketplace such as Opensea without having the physical item leave the facility. Items are also digitised via a 3D photogrammetry machine that allows for high-resolution, 360 degree generated image which means the digital images of the items are as close to the physical items. Every physical item is tied to an NFT that allows for royalties to be written into the smart contract, creating a new secondary market for physical goods.Americana MarketplaceTo find out more about how it works, click here.Starbucks releases "Green Apron Collection", selling limited edition stampsOn 1 August 2023, Starbucks launched the eight NFT collection in its Web3 loyalty program, Starbucks Odyssey, titled "The Green Apron Collection".

The company revealed its acquisition of Roar Studios, a pioneering startup at the intersection of music and the Metaverse.What exactly is Roar Studios? Roar Studios is a forward-thinking company that sought to create a platform that would merge music and social interaction, providing a space for musicians of all backgrounds, genres, and skill levels to come together to pursue their common goals, share their music, and get heard by a broader audience through Web3 solutions. Why acquire Roar Studios? The decision to acquire Roar Studios was driven by YugaLabs' desire to expand the scope of their Otherside Metaverse. By incorporating Roar's expertise and platform into their vision, this aligns perfectly with previous projects Yuga has attempted such as building music islands for performances by Eminem and Snoop Dogg. As part of the acquisition, Eric Reid, the founder and CEO of Roar Studios, will take on the role of Otherside General Manager, directly reporting to Mike Seaver, Otherside's CTO.
