NFT: the latest news on Unstoppable Domains
Every day there is a lot of news about the world of Non-Fungible Tokens (NFT), metaverse and Web 3 in general. Here is a summary of the latest, related to Unstoppable Domains, Bored Apes Yacht Club (BAYC), Marketplace Nifty Gatewayand more.
Brave partners with Unstoppable Domains
Unstoppable domainsthe company behind blockchain-based and therefore uncensorable website domains, has announced a new partnership with the privacy browser Brave.
Through this partnership, more than 2 million decentralized domains will be able to use the browser to create content or search for information on more than 30 thousand websites.
Brendan EichCEO and co-founder of Brave, said:
“Together with Unstoppable, we’re giving more people the power to create content and explore the Internet without sacrificing privacy or independence. We are excited to expand access to the decentralized web for our 60 million users and to contribute to a privacy first, where people have ownership of their data.
Brave and the integration of Unstoppable Domains also protect against the risk of DDoS (Distributed Denial-of-Service) attacks, so also in terms of security there will be advantages to using these technologies together.
Sandy CarterSVP and Channel Manager for Unstoppable Domains, explained:
“Web3 is the future, and with Brave we are expanding access to the decentralized web and giving people more ways to build their identity online. Brave’s Web3-ready browser makes it possible to build websites that are fully owned by people, not leased from big tech companies”.
Unstoppable Domains allows users to register domains with extensions like .crypto, .nft, which can be visited like regular websites, but are actually hosted on the InterPlanetary File System (IFPS), which is a decentralized peer-to-peer network which makes the site indecent and safe.
In addition, Unstoppable domains, which are connected to the blockchain, perform the function of being identity documents on Web3 platforms, allowing people to receive crypto payments with an easy-to-remember, personal address and even email.
ENS domains exceed volumes of Bored Apes
A service similar to Unstoppable Domains called Ethereum Name Service (ENS) has climbed the charts in terms of trading volume and has even managed to surpass those in the popular NFT collection Bored Ape Yacht Club (BAYC) on the OpenSea market.
The project grew from 120.7 Ethereum (ETH) to 1044.6 ETH and the average price of an ENS rose 167%.
Omni wallet raises $11 million
A few hours ago, it was reported that the Omni wallet, a wallet that supports all Web 3 applications, has raised as much as $11 million in seed investment with a value of as much as $50 million.
The round closed in May and was led by companies such as Spartan Group, GSR Ventures, Eden Block, OP Crypto, Shima Capital, Kosmos Ventures, Daedalus Angels, PrimeBlock Ventures, Figment Capital, Lattice Capital and Chorus One.
Omni, previously called Steakwallet, enables the integration of various projects related to NFT, crypto and metaverse.
Seraphim Lion Angelco-founder of the project, explained:
“The primary obstacle standing between users accessing the future of the Internet is ease of use. That’s why we built Omni: an incredibly easy-to-use Web 3 application that can do it all without sacrificing a fraction of self-mastery. Especially after seeing The CeFi breakdown, we wanted to give users something that was as easy to use as CeFi, but 100% self-defense and DeFi. And that’s what we’ve done with Omni”.
