From the above graph, at the respective price changes, or the direct return of each infrastructure’s investor, the comparison between each new generation public chain and Ethereum, it is shown that the biggest contender of the fastest-growing new generations: Solana is the first, and BNB is the second to achieve the highest ROI.

Since the market value of the above major public chains has risen from January to April this year, we can see a multi-chain universe in the future, and the market value share of Ethereum is gradually declining. Ethereum, as the mainstream smart contract platform, has been declining as the occupation of the market capitalization of the overall infrastructure network. In April, we saw the new ones that emerged in the volatile April. A generation of public chains, Binance Smart Chain with Binance as its backing, Solana ecosystem, Cardano ecosystem, and Polkadot ecosystem are constantly emerging.

We refer to the opinion of Kain Warwick. In Q1 we witnessed the social experiment and concept falsification of many new generations of public chains, which brought an impact on the Ethereum community and witnessed the early days of a multi-chain future.

Since the first half of this year, in the lineup of the new generation of infrastructure networks, for example, the Binance Smart Chain has evolved its own complete ecosystem, which can be regarded as the success of a conceptual social experiment. BSC verified that decentralization may be the needs and demands of developers, rather than the needs of general users. The most direct cost-effectiveness and the direct increase in the holding of tokens have attracted users and funds to flow into BSC in large quantities, just as the funds in the liquidity pool might do not have belief or loyalty but proceed with the most favorable return on their investment or farming.

The next-generation infrastructures such as Solana, Cardano, and Polkadot have already released smart contract functions and have been or have not yet been implemented, but many future sharding protocol projects have been completed and are ready to go. The new generation of infrastructure drives the eyes of users, developers, and investment institutions to gradually depart from the high degree of ties with Ethereum economically and ideologically.

The ecosystem construction of infrastructure network will not think that developers and users will come to this ecosystem just because it has achieved decentralization in concept and technology. As a traditional smart contract platform or the largest DeFi platform, Ethereum may be late in its expense rate and efficiency reforms, unless Ethereum makes progress in scaling in the middle of this year.

From the above chart, we can see that from January to April, the major scaling solutions with the best performance in the secondary market include: Polygon ($MATIC), Celer ($CELR) Liverpeer ($LPT), Avalanche ($AVAX), Skale ($SKL) ranks ahead, but in terms of overall market cap, compared with major smart contract platforms other than Ethereum (such as BSC, Solana, Avalanche), the market cap and market attention of the Layer-2 Scaling platform are still relatively underestimated.

The current limited scale of the Layer-2 scaling plan requires new participants to have a sufficient window of time to familiarize themselves with the development environment to gain more upward space on Ethereum. Otherwise, developers will inevitably look for elsewhere to build, which indirectly drives the blockchain world to a multi-chain development universe, in which we will discuss and conclude in the full report “Thesis of Infrastructure Blockchain, Blockchain Consensus, and Future of Scaling”: Blockchain Consensus Map, Market Performance Review of Public Chain and Challenge to the Infrastructure: Time Window of Scaling

Stay tuned!

Polygon helps bootstrap a new blockchain network while ensuring compatibility with Ethereum smart contracts and transactions. Polygon’s scalable solutions have gained widespread adoption across the industry in a short period — hosting over 7,000 applications and processing 1 billion transactions. In addition, Polygon protects nearly 100 million unique user addresses with $5 billion in assets.

Due to the speed and security of transactions, low fees, and compatibility with major DeFi projects, Polygon will be one of the most suitable platforms for NGG to scale. NGG will utilize the Polygon platform for token issuance, marketing interactions, and further investment.

Nova Guild Games is the first Russian-speaking gaming guild in the Play-to-earn segment, which integrates the community of Russian-speaking players into the gaming Metaverse. The main goal of NGG is to create a high-tech ecosystem that unites millions of P2E sphere participants around the world.

We all have those days when we want to do something and we don’t know who to call; or those days that none of your friends are free; or those days you’re wondering what you’re doing with people that do not go well with your personal and / or life goal but you wouldn’t let go because it is too hard to meet people; or you’re just having a tough time meeting new people due to the cliquey neighbourhood you’re in.

TheBroCode aims to be the first app to change the meeting dynamics we currently have in this world, increasing chances of people to meet conveniently and easily, at your own accord. Whether you like being paid for it, or a free meetup, we match people based on selected skills and interests spontaneously.

Most of the time, when we think about music, we think about the artists who create it. We think about the listeners who enjoy it. But what about the people who invest in and support the music? What about the people who are responsible for bringing the music to the masses by being the cultural equivalent of seed-stage investors, giving emerging artists the runway and revenue they need to create a career?

In Music3, these collectors are vital. By minting, holding, trading, staking, and sharing music NFTs, they create demand and liquidity for unique digital assets. The art of music in Web3 is not just about the musicians or the listeners, it’s about the collectors too. For a music ecosystem to thrive, we need people who are willing to invest in it and support it. The collectors are the backbone of Music3.

Collectors come in all shapes and sizes. Some collect for fun, others for investment purposes. But they all have one thing in common: a love for music.Investment-focused collectors are still an emerging demographic; the case studies for music NFTs as speculative assets are being written right now, but as the market matures we can expect to see more activity from this group.

Returns on music collecting are not new — rare tapes, merchandise, vinyl, limited-edition releases, and box sets have been accumulating value as alternative assets for decades. When you combine the innate collectability of music with the trade and investment culture of crypto, you can see a unique opportunity for niche investments in niche musical communities.

We anticipate that as individual artists launch their on-chain careers or transition into Music3, their digital creations will become valuable and sought after assets for their highly focused, specific, and dedicated communities — and we anticipate that those communities will 10x PFP communities in terms of their engagement, activity, and longevity, purely because music communities have already demonstrated their strength and value through decades and decades of music, from the Rolling Stones to Silverstein.

The collector-as-investor model, while in its early stages, is a promising sign for the future of music. With the backing and support of collectors, artists will be able to create more meaningful and sustainable careers in Music3, and listeners will have greater access to unique and exclusive content, with the potential for personal gain, passive income, and a tangible ROI.

But for the average collector, music is about much more than just financial gain. It’s about the joy of discovery, the excitement of hearing a song for the first time, and the pleasure of sharing music with friends. NFTs give collectors a way to connect with artists on a deeper level and create a permanent record of their fandom. Collectors in this context will gain joy and satisfaction purely from building libraries of NFTs, in the same way, they collect vinyl records and trade their favorite songs.

We believe that Web3 will bring about a renewed appreciation for music and its collectors. By giving collectors a voice and a place in the ecosystem, we are paving the way for a more vibrant, sustainable, and valuable music industry.The collectors are the lifeblood of Music3, and their engagement and support are essential for the continued growth and success of the ecosystem.

What do you think about collectors being the backbone of Music3? Let us know in the comments below!

Hermine began to think about the concept of metaverse, and how she could explore this new creative universe. Before creating NFTs, she started by buying them. She is the proud owner of a Clone X, the NFTs created by RTFKT, a company that was bought by Nike, and that are now worth a small fortune.

Besides avatars, RTFKT also created “loot pods”, which are small apartments in the metaverse, that NFT Clone X owners can furnish. Hermine had already started recreating her signature sculptural objects in NFT to furnish Oncyber galleries, so the next logical step was to furnish lootpods!

So she started with what she knew: her sculptural lamps and tables. She uses the Blender tool, which allows her to model digital objects in 3D. For her debut, she wanted to offer her collectors the possibility to buy a unique piece either in the real world or in the virtual world.

Today, after the success of her sculptural objects that have become NFT, Hermine pushes her thinking further. She has begun to defy the laws of gravity with her latest collection “Métamorphoses”, which are digital sculptural objects that move, form and deform.

Indeed, the primary instinct is to recreate in the metaverse what we already know in the physical world, but Hermine exercises free will and lets her imagination run wild to create sculptures and sculptural objects that levitate, become liquid, disappear and defy the impossible.

Hermine will be present at the Non-Fungible Conference in Lisbon in April, where she will present her work, including a new collection of “phygital” works, virtual objects that can be observed in 3D in the physical world.She will also participate in the first NFT art auction “the prohibited auction” of the auction house Fauve Paris, under the leadership of its CEO Lucie-Eléonore Riveron, also a woman of character and innovation.
