Aptos is a Layer 1 Proof-of-Stake (PoS) blockchain that employs a novel smart contract programming language called Move, a Rust-based programming language that was independently developed by Meta (formerly Facebook)’s Diem blockchain engineers.

Aptos’s vision is a blockchain that brings mainstream adoption to web3 and empowers an ecosystem of DApps to solve real-world user problems.

The PoS blockchain can achieve a theoretical transaction throughput of over 150,000 transactions per second (tps) through parallel execution.

In March 2022, Aptos raised $200 million in a seed round led by the venture capital firm Andreessen Horowitz (a16z). Other crypto heavyweights like Tiger Global and Multicoin Capital took part in the funding round. Fast forward to July, the startup raised another $200 million in a Series A round with participation from Dragonfly, Apollo Global, Franklin Templeton, Animoca, Jump Crypto and others.

Two months later, Binance Labs made a strategic investment of an undisclosed amount in Aptos.

On Oct. 18, 2022, Aptos announced the mainnet launch, while the Aptos genesis occurred on Oct. 12, 2022.

BLUR is the native governance token of Blur, a unique non-fungible token (NFT) marketplace and aggregator platform that offers advanced features such as real-time price feeds, portfolio management and multi-marketplace NFT comparisons. It claims to have faster NFT sweeps, and a more intuitive interface than other comparable platforms.

As a result, many professional NFT traders increasingly prefer to use Blur for their trading activities — although it may be due to incentives like the recent airdrop of 360 million BLUR tokens — worth around $355M at the time of writing. It is an Ethereum-based platform that has raised over $14m from world class investors and traders including Paradigm, 6529, Cozomo Medici, dhof, Bharat Krymo, Zeneca, OSF, MoonOverlord, icebergy, Deeze, Andy8052, Keyboard Monkey and many more.

BLUR came to prominence after launching in October 2022, when it promised airdrops of BLUR tokens to the top platform users.

Stargate Finance (STG) is an omnichain-native asset bridge designed to solve the blockchain trilemma, which says that no blockchain can be decentralized, secure, and fast simultaneously. It does this by simplifying cross-chain DeFi transactions, which lets users transfer and swap their assets between different blockchains, layer-2 networks, and decentralized applications (dApps) almost instantly.

Stargate users can also move their assets between different liquidity pools on various decentralized finance (DeFi) protocols and dApps. The protocol supports transfers between eight chains: Ethereum, Avalanche, Polygon, Metis, BNB Chain, Arbitrum, Optimism and Fantom.

The platform offers several other, profit-making features: users can supply liquidity pools, stake assets, and farm tokens. When users stake their assets, they can help govern the Stargate Finance Exchange.

Arbitrum is an Ethereum layer-two (L2) scaling solution. It uses optimistic rollups to achieve its goal of improving speed, scalability and cost-efficiency on Ethereum. Arbitrum benefits from the security and compatibility of Ethereum. Another benefit is the higher throughput and lower fees compared to Ethereum. That is made possible thanks to moving most of the computation and storage load off-chain.

Arbitrum’s native token is called ARB and is used for governance. Offchain Labs, the developers behind Arbitrum, announced the shift to a decentralized autonomous organization (DAO) structure — the Arbitrum DAO. ARB holders can vote on proposals that affect the features, protocol upgrades, funds allocation and election of a Security Council.

Arbitrum has an ambitious roadmap for 2023, which includes: Launching its own layer-three solution called Orbit; Enabling developers to deploy programs written in popular programming languages like Rust, C++, and more using Stylus; Expanding its validator set to include more independent institutional validators; Moving its protocol to layer two with Arbitrum One.

On March 16, 2023,  Arbitrum announced their highly anticipated airdrop of ARB. The token will be airdropped to early users and DAOs building on Arbitrum, with 12.75% of the total supply to be distributed. Recipients were rewarded on a point-based system depending on their interaction with the Arbitrum network until a cutoff date of March 1, 2023. The token generation event is on March 23, 2023.

Seedify.fund(SFUND) Seedify is a blockchain gaming-focused incubator and launchpad that empowers innovators and project developers through access to funding, community and partnership building, and a full support system to help drive the future of gaming and blockchain. Its ecosystem also includes an NFT launchpad for gaming and metaverse assets, along with the industry's first gaming-and-metaverse-asset-centric NFT marketplace, Seedify NFT Space.

Featuring an IGO launchpad with a tiered allocation mechanism, Seedify enables $SFUND holders to stake their tokens and earn staking rewards while gaining access to quality, procured blockchain gaming projects through private sales and initial game offerings. The launchpad's tier system consists of nine tiers. Tier 1 uses a lottery-based allocation process, while tier 2 to 9 participants enjoy guaranteed allocation.

Along with IGOs, stakers can also participate in initial NFT offerings (INOs) and initial metaverse offerings (IMOs) on Seedify's NFT Launchpad. Additionally, staking $SFUND, gives holders the opportunity to receive tokens from the projects that have been selected and supported by Seedify's incubation program.

Committed to bringing the opportunities offered through blockchain gaming and the play-to-earn model to billions around the globe, the Seedify team has established key relationships with numerous VCs and industry peers, to build an extensive support network for blockchain gaming and metaverse startups.

Interested game industry innovators submit their project proposal to the Seedify

Seedify acts as a launching pad for blockchain games and the disruptive play-to-earn gaming model. The gaming industry is gradually entering a new era — previously gamers may spend large sums of money on in-game items with no direct monetary benefits. However, they are now able to make money by earning in-game item non-fungible tokens (NFTs) and tokens, which is facilitated by the play-to-earn revolution.

Blockchain technology has not only opened up more opportunities for gamers and game developers, but it has also offered additional forms of benefits like transparency, ownership, incentive models and digital ownership through NFTs.

The team behind the Seedify project are pursuing a global goal: to acquaint gamers with the blockchain and increase the rate of technology adoption, attract a huge number of users, create more jobs and financial benefits.

Optimism (OP) is a layer-two blockchain on top of Ethereum. Optimism benefits from the security of the Ethereum mainnet and helps scale the Ethereum ecosystem by using optimistic rollups. That means transactions are trustlessly recorded on Optimism but ultimately secured on Ethereum.

Optimism is one of the biggest scaling solutions for Ethereum with over $500 million in TVL. It is home to 97 protocols, the biggest being Synthetix (SNX), a derivatives exchange, Uniswap (UNI), a DEX, and Velodrome (VELO), an AMM. Users can begin their journey on Optimism by adding the chain on their Metamask and bridging tokens like ETH to the L2. On May 31, 2022, Optimism conducted a highly anticipated airdrop of its OP token.
