Dreams Quest, an open-world action mobile role-playing game (RPG), has released its first major lore, storyline and game update for Origins: The Fall of Azoria on Fandom, one of the most notable websites for gamers and fans. The “alpha leaks” give players a closer look at the history, backstory and peril that has unfolded in the world of Azoria and its other realms.
Released on Fandom, the world’s largest fan platform catering to over 315 million people, Dreams Quest becomes the first blockchain game ever to have a dedicated gaming Fandom site. Players will be able to add new pages and document the game much like other fan pages for games such as Horizon and Skyrim.
Unveiling the reason behind publishing the white paper-styled content on Fandom, Steve Good, co-founder and CEO of Dreams Quest, stated: “Fandom is one of the most popular sites for games, anime, cartoons and tv shows, so it makes sense to become a part of the larger fanbase community. We wanted to build a collaborative website that anyone from the community can build and expand upon. And we wanted to give something more to our players.
“Our initial pages are designed to share insights on gameplay, lore, races, characters, locations, game mechanics and a lot more. And we have more in store for everyone as we prepare to release more content over time.”
Origins: The Fall of Azoria is the first planned release in the overall Dreams Quest game series. The Fandom site offers a glimpse into this immersive game, storyline and gameplay, along with other information, backstories about the realms, hints at major quest lines and introductions to some of the most notable beings and nonplayable characters found in the game. The Fandom site pages are called “Wekapedia,” which refers to Weka, a formless and timeless life force and energy that both moves and is moved by matter and sound.
It creates and maintains a balance of all that is, was and will be. Understanding Weka is a thread within the game that will enable players to understand how to craft, cast spells, level up, and unlock hidden environments and locations through portals.
Paulii Good, co-founder, creative director and chief marketing officer of Dreams Quest, said: “Through Fandom, we intend to create immersive and beautiful content and imagery that will engage players, spark their imagination, and leave them wanting to discover more. More importantly, we celebrate and honor our fans by pushing our content and storylines to one of the more notable wiki sites to invite players to share this game together.”
Dreams Quest Origins marks its first entrance into the fantasy role-playing, open-world and metaverse genres by leveraging both Web2 mobile gaming and Web3 features using nonfungible tokens (NFTs) to enable players to fully enjoy the power of asset ownership, inventory swapping and personal game content creation.
Like traditional RPG games, players will be able to play within the game without any required blockchain features. However, through the Web3 features being developed, players who choose to fully own their assets will receive their inventory and assets within their MetaMask wallet. Changes to player inventory will be dynamically applied to their wallets in near real-time and handled in a highly secure method without any confirmations required.
Origins: The Fall of Azoria will be the first mobile game that enables players to have ownership of their game assets, be synchronized in near real-time between the game server and blockchain, and deliver a truly immersive and game-changing player experience. The synchronization between Web2 and Web3 is a major feature that is setting a new standard for both the blockchain and gaming industries.
About Dreams Quest

It is also the first-ever game designed with a metaverse-based economy, designed on the core principle of create-to-earn, where every in-game asset is a dynamic NFT that can be crafted, forged, upgraded and traded to let players unlock the value of their game assets.
Buying.com’s team has grown to 110 employees in seven countries, with thousands of drivers. The programming team, led by Utkarsh Khare, has completed all of the current roadmap points ahead of schedule, and the management team, led by Evelyn Rivera, has implemented a reliable structure and dependable processes that keeps Buying running smoothly despite the inevitable challenges associated with starting a business.
Buying’s previous accomplishments
The team has completed every step on the current roadmap, and the platform is now operational in beta production test-mode prior to starting major worldwide marketing efforts. Buying has also completed a cash buyback from TrustSwap of 36 million BUY tokens at spot price.
This was vital to ensure that the token community would be stabilized and that a single holder’s movement would not be able to affect the value and stability of the BUY token’s future growth. Buying has also finished the platform’s Google Chrome extension, which is now downloadable and functional for the token’s cash back program.
Social Group Buying and Cash Back Rewards
Social Group Buying is a novel feature that makes bulk pricing accessible to all customers, not just large corporations with the financial resources to meet minimum order quantities. Customers can now pool their funds to buy products at wholesale prices, thereby providing small businesses a competitive advantage in the e-commerce market.
Consumers can use the Cash Back Rewards program to buy products from thousands of stores that have partnered with Buying and receive not only cash back rewards but also BUY tokens that can be matched with many partners and affiliates. The team is constantly working to develop strategic relationships with additional online retailers.
What else to look forward to?
Buying will work with Otter to provide delivery through its Point of Sale platform. With this partnership, Buying will be able to improve delivery services for restaurants and businesses across the country. Buying’s national delivery infrastructure will be made available to Otter customers, while Otter’s solutions will be made accessible to Buying’s community.
Buying is also excited to announce a collaboration with Shopping.io, which will allow users to use BUY tokens to purchase items from major e-commerce hubs like Amazon and eBay. BUY will also be the platform’s first Algorand token, with its use unlocking discounts at hundreds of stores.
What about Buying’s staking program?
The team wants to emphasize that it values the community’s opinions and feedback and that its considers all of it, along with a slew of other factors, when making crucial decisions. Today, the total number of tokens staked has increased to 270 million. It’s also critical that no one can devalue the BUY token, even if it means delays.
As of Sept. 1, 2022, the APY for BUY will be reduced to 21.25%, which is still a healthy and manageable APY for Buying, allowing for consistent exponential growth and expansion.
Addressing concerns and future plans
Buying announced the $5.5 million acquisition of the domain names Physicians.com, Obgyn.com, and HairRestoration.com. The team believes domain names in the medical fields will boost Buying’s growth and market speed. A completely separate design team has already been hired and is in full design and buildout mode, ensuring that the logistics and cash back rewards are not effected.
An additional sales team is also being hired for partners and affiliates in the medical ecosystem to help with growth, and there are plans to launch the first medically driven Algorand blockchain structure for the medical industry within the next 12 months as well.
Why did Buying choose the medical field?
Physicians.com will change the medical game by making things more streamlined and accessible, and Buying’s sales teams are working hard to register medical practitioners and medical centers worldwide who are eager to join and participate in the services. This will enable Buying to create cost-effective individual niche networks that are significantly valuable resources for patients with specific needs.
Physicians will connect with thousands of doctors and will continue to add world-class professionals to its database. With tele-health rapidly expanding, the timing is ideal for positioning Buying’s token holders in areas other than consumer goods.
About Buying
Buying.com, located in Mount Arlington, New Jersey, is a forward-thinking technology company that is transforming logistics and e-commerce with decentralized blockchain solutions for consumers and businesses. The platform’s on-demand delivery solutions offer restaurants a convenient, easy-to-use, secure and cost-effective last-mile delivery network. The Prime blockchain protocol raises delivery standards to new heights by applying tried and true peer-to-peer models to supply and logistics like Uber or Airbnb.
The long-awaited Ethereum merge will most likely occur in September this year. This will be the largest fundamental shift in the history of crypto.
The network has suffered an immense increase in traffic and uncontrolled spikes in gas fees. The merge will ultimately alleviate these bottlenecks, making the network even more secure and less energy-intensive by switching from the proof-of-work to the proof-of-stake framework.
Ethereum has predominantly been the most popular network for new blockchain entrants, as well as nonfungible token users.
As Seedify eagerly waits to see one of the biggest moves forward in the crypto industry so far, it is also prepared to integrate with the upgraded Ethereum network by opening a parity pool between its native token, SFUND and Ether (SFUND/ETH).
The integration will enable Seedify to expand its community, reach new audiences and enable easy adoption for new holders, stakers and farmers with its ecosystem.
With multichain support provided, anyone using the Ethereum network will be able to adopt Seedify utilities much faster, thus adding an extra layer of growth to boost their utilities and SFUND.
In an effort to extend the reach of Seedify’s ecosystem, they will also be adding SFUND/ETH farms very soon to ensure the liquidity of SFUND on Ethereum provides a healthy trading economy.
Seedify will also be holding surprise events to boost the exposure of SFUND to Ethereum-native users in order to increase the visibility of SFUND on the Ethereum network.
Users who want to enjoy the new implemented transfer can simply follow the below easy-to-use tool to seamlessly transfer SFUND tokens between BNB Smart Chain (BSC) and Ethereum without any issues:
- Go to multichain.xyz.
- Click on “Enter App,” or go directly to app.multichain.org/#/router.
- Connect a wallet. Users should ensure they’re on BSC.
- In the dashboard provided, make sure to select the following networks: BNB Chain Mainnet on top and Ethereum Mainnet at the bottom.
- Select SFUND by searching the token name on both box fields for tokens.
- Enter the amount of SFUND to transfer.
- Click “Swap” at the bottom.
- Click “Confirm.”
- The SFUND tokens will be transferred to the Ethereum network within minutes
Holders can also transfer SFUND from the Ethereum network. The process is similar, except the first field needs to be changed.
There is no commission deduction when transferring SFUND bought from the Ethereum network to BSC.
Cross-chain transactions are very simple and accrue only a small fee to complete the transfer.
Seedify’s contract addresses are as follows:
- BSC network: 0x477bc8d23c634c154061869478bce96be6045d12
- Ethereum network: 0x461d52769884ca6235b685ef2040f47d30c94eb5

Saint Vincent and the Grenadines, Aug 21, 2022 — ApeX Protocol, a decentralized, permissionless and non-custodial network, first opened the gateways of inclusive access to the crypto perpetual swaps market in February 2022.
Designed to provide solutions to flaws in existing decentralized exchanges (DEXs) such as high gas fees and poor order execution, the ApeX Protocol is firmly anchored in realizing the Web3 vision — shaping a free and open ecosystem for all users to grow their wealth in a safe and trusted environment, where they can participate within an interconnected meta-community.
ApeX Pro, a layer-2 (L2) trading platform built on the ApeX Protocol, has integrated zero-knowledge Rollup (zk-Rollup) infrastructure, bringing an upgrade that will help establish a Web3 social trading platform. ApeX Pro is leveraging first on the rollout of a new order book feature to co-exist with the current elastic automated market maker (eAMM) model.
From ApeX eAMM to ApeX Pro
The ApeX Protocol ecosystem has grown significantly since its inception on the Arbitrum chain in the first quarter of 2022. The benefits of the eAMM model, where trading pairs are set up with a single asset provision and orders are automatically executed based on smart contracts, have been extensively proven in a decentralized environment.
Similarly, the ApeX Protocol has succeeded in upholding a fully permissionless platform with no need for Know Your Customer restrictions or intermediaries in trades. Traders can also enjoy full spectrum asset support and liquidity in perpetuity on the perpetual swaps markets for any token pair.
ApeX Protocol is committed to further bridging the gap between derivatives traders and Web3 innovations with upcoming upgrades. An integrated and open social trading platform marks its next stop, beginning with an optimized order book offering on the brand new ApeX Pro.
A synchronized solution with StarkEx
ApeX Pro will offer its flagship cross-margined perpetual swaps trading platform to users with an upgrade by integrating the best of order book architecture on top of the protocol’s existing framework.
The addition of the order book interface helps to:
- Enhance capital efficiency for users who intend to invest or trade with fewer funds but are still looking for high liquidity provisions.
- Increase flexibility in orders with advanced charting functions, plus visible asks and bids that will help users take more informed trading actions.
- Accelerate the growth of the ApeX meta-community, as the order book interface bridges the gap between users who are used to utilizing order books for trades and a new realm of trading opportunities offered by the world of decentralized finance (DeFi).
- Provide higher trading performance with enhanced market exposure, with leverage and other trading features.
- Support multichain deposits and withdrawals for Ethereum Virtual Machine-compatible chains.
With the help of StarkWare’s L2 scalability engine (StarkEx), ApeX Pro is able to uphold the promise of decentralized and efficient trading by offering users an optimal combination of security and transparency one would usually see in a DEX and the speed and usability users are used to seeing on centralized exchanges.
Leveraging StarkEx’s use of cryptographic proofs in validating transactions and also Validium to boost transaction scalability, ApeX Pro is poised to provide faster transaction processing speeds and some of the lowest gas fees across the DeFi sphere. Engineered for higher liquidity and greater network interoperability, users can access non-custodial trading with Ether (ETH) and any ERC-20 tokens.
What lies ahead
In a rapidly morphing crypto landscape where milestone innovations frequently come into play, ApeX Protocol is charting the course for decentralization to match the needs of individual users — all by kickstarting a new era of Web3 social trading.
Combined with powerful matching engine capabilities, ApeX Pro aims to help traders tokenize data income and realize influence.
Over the coming months, ApeX Pro will launch greater feature and service add-ons so users can be a part of ApeX Protocol’s ecosystem:
- Creation of decentralized identifications: Get access to a customizable, personal trading dashboard.
- New tokens and perks: Soulbound tokens and participation rewards will be made available to users who engage in the ApeX Protocol ecosystem.
- The ApeX decentralized autonomous organization: ApeX is working toward building a DEX infrastructure, where ownership of the platform is eventually conferred upon its users.
The roadmap is designed to be accessible by open markets, as ApeX Pro continues to foster community-led development and establish sustainable growth practices that can support the protocol in perpetuity.

The AIBC Summit has always prided itself on being a global hub for innovation, technological foresight and proactive entrepreneurship.
From combining the leading minds in the Deep Tech space to empowering visionary-led projects in the areas of IoT, blockchain, AI, quantum computing and more, the summit has always served as a nexus of discussion and debate. This year, the inaugural summit in Belgrade will platform some of the leading minds in the space to discuss some of the most exciting topics in deep tech.
Deep tech thought: Top topics at AIBC Belgrade
Spread out over two days, the summit is set to cover a series of the most vital areas of technological innovation in both the digital and physical worlds. Spread over five thematic agendas, AIBC will use Belgrade’s thriving ecosystem of developers and technical innovators to platform pertinent discussions on:
- DeFi and payments
- Web3 and the Metaverse
- Blockchain regulation, crypto Innovation and cybersecurity
- NFTs and crypto trends
- Emerging technologies and the future of AI
DeFi and payments: Tomorrow’s finance
From mass adoption to building in a bear market, this agenda will provide a glimpse into the next generation of payment strategies and microeconomics. With finance being the lifeblood of any industry as well as a pillar for adoption as a whole, discussions on crypto’s place in the global financial ecosystem as well as the presence of new players such as neobanks and DAOs are of vital importance.
Luckily enough, attendees will be guided through this journey by leading figures from ventures such as Brickken, 100xPartners, Unigrid and many more through keynotes and panels illuminating the role of tomorrow’s money.
Web3 and the Metaverse: Bridging the physical and digital
With the Metaverse being one of the hottest topics in the ecosystem, the lattice of interrelated technologies (AR, VR, Web3, blockchain and more) that will serve as the foundation for the next generation of the internet will take center stage at AIBC’s Belgrade show. Leading technologists will be showing lucky delegates how the netizens of the future will be able to interface with cyberspace in new and exciting ways, so anyone with a foot in digital assets will want to stay tuned for this.
From the pioneers and engineers of the Metaverse to entrepreneurs in the Web3 space, our speakers have come from all four corners of the Earth and cyberspace to share their insights with our delegates.
Blockchain regulation, NFTs and the future of DLT
At the forefront of innovation, blockchain and DLT technology as a whole represent a disruptive force in a wide portfolio of industries. From medical technology to data sovereignty, the ongoing wave of mass adoption stands to leave nothing untouched, with regulation and legal reform being one of the main focuses in this year’s Belgrade summit.
Covering issues such as the legal potential of DAOs to investment in digital assets, our handpicked selection of industry leaders will drive the debate on the future of blockchain forward. From Metaverse architects to leading DLT lawyers, the Belgrade Summit will bridge today’s bear market with tomorrow’s bull run.
Emerging technology and the future of AI:
With the Fourth Industrial Revolution under way, the role of deep tech has never been more fundamental in the future of society. From the incoming AI revolution to the disruptive arms race between quantum computing and blockchain security, the economy of tomorrow might not resemble anything we may be used to today. Therefore, AIBC’s thought leadership could bridge the knowledge gap between what we know, what we don’t know, and what we don’t know that we don’t know.
Some of the leading technologists from across the world will be in the spotlight at AIBC Belgrade to discuss the latest advances in artificial intelligence and its use cases, the power of IoT and the latest quantum leaps in quantum computing.
The summit
AIBC Belgrade Summit will be taking place in Belgrade, Serbia from Aug. 22 to 25, 2022. With the peninsula well-known for its natural beauty, rich cultural landscape and fantastic delicacies, the Balkans are renowned for having some of the most quintessentially Mediterranean vistas and experiences. From the Adriatic coastline of Split to the fairytale-esque castle of Lake Bled, the region has a lot to offer the world. That being said, something that fewer may know is the fact that Balkan nations are incubating a nascent but powerfully growing technical expertise when it comes to frontier technology such as blockchain, GameFi, AI and more. Therefore, the region may not only be a rich adventure into the past but may also serve as a window into the very near future.
Join the event in Belgrade for the best the industry has to offer and for a window into the future of deep tech. To learn more about sponsorship and speaking opportunities, or to inquire about attending the event, send an email to Sophie. Those interested in being one of the leading speakers at AIDC Belgrade should contact Lygia.
Verse Estate, a hyper-realistic Metaverse headquartered and fully licensed in Dubai, is introducing hyper-realism to provide a more enriching virtual environment allowing people and businesses to transition seamlessly to the virtual world.
Verse Estate wants to play a key role in contributing to the Dubai Metaverse Strategy, which aims to turn the city into one the world’s top-10 Metaverse economies as well as a global hub for the Metaverse community. The strategy was announced by Sheikh Hamdan bin Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Crown Prince of Dubai and chairman of The Executive Council of Dubai.
To celebrate its launch, Verse Estate is organizing an invitation-only event on Oct. 24 at its newly opened, high-tech showroom in Alserkal Dubai, bringing together UAE government officials, institutions and partners, where the Good Morning Web3 podcast by thought leader John Kraski will provide a panel of experts in the field and insightful discussions allowing guests to better understand how Web3 will transform the future of the internet and how businesses can evolve to ride this wave of transformation.
The Metaverse is positioned to drastically change the business landscape, making the online presence of individual companies more essential now than ever. The Metaverse presents the opportunity to level up customer engagement, retention rates, create new revenue streams, and improve collaboration, learning and training, among many other benefits.
Verse Estate provides turnkey solutions for clients interested in pursuing the potential of the Web3 arena. The organization assists them by providing services such as planning, creation, deployment of Web3/Metaverse strategies as well as advising on how to safeguard their intellectual property.
A Citi report found that the Metaverse represents a potential $8 trillion to $13 trillion opportunity by 2030 that could boast as many as 5 billion users.
The Verse Estate team said the growth of Web3 and the Metaverse has been encouraging because it means people are seeing this underlying technology feed into different applications that go beyond just crypto and gaming.
Before mainstream adoption occurs, though, significant infrastructure investments are needed so that users can go seamlessly from one experience to another, said the Verse Estate team, adding that building a more realistic and user-friendly experience is critical.
With the Metaverse still in an early stage of development, there are a plethora of risks and challenges in technology, regulation, privacy and crypto that need to be overcome before widespread adoption takes place. As we’ve seen with Web2, there will be challenges around content moderation, free speech and privacy. The legal frameworks developing around cryptocurrencies and decentralized finance will also be relevant to the Metaverse.
The Verse Estate team believes that the Metaverse will become a seamless extension of our physical world, and if done well, it could become a positive force for access and diversity, bridging some of the divides that exist in today’s world. Verse Estate wants to contribute to the building of an inclusive Metaverse for a more equitable future while following a people-first approach.
Ever heard of the saying “When the money goes, you find out who your real friends are?” – the bear market has given us the perfect opportunity to uncover the real gamers present in Web 3.0, and the outlook isn’t that bright after all.
The mass exodus from GameFi’s ‘Rising Stars’ such as Axie Infinity and SolChicks have shown us one thing – the gameplay just isn’t there. GameFi isn’t as much for the gamers as it is for the earners, and this is becoming crystal clear in the bear-market backdrop.
So, what’s the solution?
Putting the ‘Game’ Back Into ‘GameFi’
Marketing itself as a ‘Play-AND-Earn’ ecosystem, Ryber is bringing its addictive state-of-the-art gameplay up to the level of the earning potential. Sure, Ryber’s NFT owners can earn 220% APY from staking, but they’ll stick around for the immersion, the lore, the competitive racing, exploration and never-ending fun from a never-ending selection of AAA blockchain games.
“P2E games over the past few years have served primarily as a form of income instead of a good medium for entertainment. With Ryber, we’re disrupting this trend, aiming to inflate the industry with AAA gameplay – it’s going to be epic” – Dmitry Nevskiiy, Ryber’s CEO
Okay – but what’s Ryber? A platform for game developers? Steam but blockchain? A gamified metaverse?
A 3-in-1 GameFi Spectacle to be Reckoned With
Ryber is a triple-barreled 2022 shotgun of an ecosystem, set to change the world of GameFi for good. Let’s unpack those barrels one by one.
– First up is the RyberVerse – a three-stage, gamified metaverse offering innovative Play-and-Earn game mechanics. Initially, the team is going to kick the show off with Ryber: The Lost Data Runner. Staying true to its philosophy of ‘play and earn’, the debut runner will introduce Robros, fascinatingly cute creatures, brilliantly talented at maneuvering vehicles through unimaginable twists and turns as commanded by the player. Second in the trilogy will come Ryber: Battle Royale, which will pay homage to the success of the game mode in the traditional gaming segment. Finally, Ryber’s fully-fledged gamified metaverse will be released, uniting the games aforementioned, while providing players with an unprecedented level of immersion.
– Next up is the RyberMetaMaker – a tool for adding blockchain and P2E mechanics to games. Indeed, Web3 game developers are currently facing a myriad of issues associated with the fact that blockchain games are technically challenging to set up. Because of this, Ryber is in the process of developing a solution that will provide accessible, industry-grade tools to developers looking to create their own blockchain games. The RyberMetaMaker will lower barriers to entry for blockchain game development, catalyzing the mass adoption of blockchain technology
– And lastly, the RyberHub – a digital blockchain game distribution center. Ryber doesn’t just intend to help create AAA games on the blockchain through the RyberMetaMaker, but it aims to assist in their promotion, bringing them to their players. The RyberHub will feature unique rating and sorting mechanics, making sure that players are able to quickly find and access the games that they’ll surely enjoy, all under one roof.
Sounds exciting – what about backing?
With best-in-class partners, we’re not the only ones excited about Ryber.
As a top 50 crypto exchange entering the market in 2017, Tidex currently has a trading volume that extends up to 2 million USD per day. The exchange itself is known for an incredibly comfortable user experience, with a transparent fee structure, fees that are significantly below the market average, and more than 100 pairs on offer. Tidex also offers a launchpad and engages in a variety of well-researched investment endeavors. Of course, Ryber is one of their most recent additions.
Next up is Digital Finance Group (DFG), a global blockchain and cryptocurrency investment firm. The group was founded in 2015 and already manages assets valued at over 1 billion USD. Backing by DFG is a good sign, considering the extent of their analytical research processes. Indeed, DFG’s investment is notorious for only landing on the most impactful and promising blockchain and Web 3.0 projects globally. The fact that Ryber now makes up a portion of their investment portfolio speaks volumes as to the potential of the Ryber project and ecosystem.
Then, there’s WeWay – a major stakeholder and partner in the Ryber project, and functions as a full-scale ecosystem for brand promotion in the Web 3.0 arena. They service bridges between brands, link creators with NFTs and Metaverse promotion and are even known for their work on Web 3.0 blockchain marketplaces. They offer full-cycle services when it comes to realizing ideas on the blockchain and are marketing experts. The relationship between WeWay and Ryber is very hands-on, and this will go a long way to ensure the success of the Ryber project by making sure that no stone is unturned when it comes to propagating the social momentum of the project.
Adding its metaverse experience to the pot, the DAX estate program is a unique stakeholder in Ryber as the project aims at increasing confidence in real estate tokenization. Indeed, they look to reduce risks associated with metaverse creation, and property tokenization while protecting the rights of all participants. Dax is known for their involvement in projects functioning as a guarantor and escrow, providing due diligence, monitoring, and the necessary transparency. The RyberVerse is sure to benefit from the guidance of DAX, with their planned gamified metaverse.
