🔫 Yuga’s Otherside Gears Up for ‘Legends of the Mara’ Open Beta Launch
Yuga Labs announced that it will be debuting the open beta for its upcoming Otherside metaverse game, Legends of the Mara, sometime in September. Yuga first demoed Legends of the Mara to a small group of Otherdeed holders in July. First announced in March 2022, Otherside continues to represent the largest expansion of the Bored Ape Yacht Club (BAYC) universe, serving as an MMORPG (Massively Multiplayer Online Role-Playing Game) that is directly linked to the BAYC ecosystem. Legends of the Mara, a 2D web-based game, is rooted in the Otherside metaverse world, where members leverage their Otherdeed NFTs alongside a new NFT that will allow them to farm sediments, hatch their vessels, and fight something called “The Shattered” – with the goal of placing as high as possible. X user Hunter Solaire provided a comprehensive breakdown of how the game is structured and what it looks like. For Otherdeed NFT holders, their virtual land collectibles offer them two different tiers – environment tiers and sediment tiers. Environment tiers determine the number of “workers” you can have, while sediment tiers determine the number of “resources” you produce. However, “workers” also have tiers of their own – Koda, Mara (hunters, farmers, enchanters), and Kodamara (evolved Mara).

🔫 Metaverse could reach up to $900 billion by 2030: Report
Despite reports that "metaverse-hype" is dying down, the metaverse could reach up to $900 billion dollars by 2030—though it may remain in the seed stage for at least another five to 10 years, a research report said on Thursday. According to the report released by Bain & Company, the metaverse poses real and growing economic opportunities for businesses. ompanies that engage in the metaverse’s early stages of development, known as the “seed stage," over the next five to 10 years, are more likely to become the market winners. "As the metaverse quickly evolves, we’ve already seen these types of technologies take hold within different industries,” said Chris Johnson, a partner in Bain’s Technology practice. "A good example of this is immersive gaming platforms, which are already boasting hundreds of millions of monthly active users. And while it’s not immediately clear how the metaverse landscape will shift, our research shows there are five competitive battlegrounds that executives should be considering if they wish to get ahead and eventually scale. This is an ongoing journey toward more immersive and collaborative experiences, enabled by rapid improvements in the underlying technology," Johnson said.

🔫 Leveraging the Medical Metaverse to Increase Patient Outcomes
In late August, the World Economic Forum (WEF) released its 11th annual Top 10 Emerging Technologies report, highlighting innovative technology solutions that positively impact society. In its report, the WEF named the “Medical Metaverse” among its top emerging technologies of 2023 – alongside flexible batteries, genAI, sustainable aviation fuel, designer phages, wearable plant sensors, spatial optics, flexible neural electronics, sustainable computing, and AI-facilitated healthcare. The Metaverse for healthcare sits alongside a respectable list of technologies unrelated to XR, which can generate positive change across a spectrum of people worldwide. The news comes as many place doubt on the future of the Metaverse following a dip in general interest. However, the WEF report highlights a vertical market that may experience improved professional and patient outcomes thanks to emerging Metaverse applications. Moreover, Microsoft is resparking its stake in an Industrial Metaverse, with plans to debut products in 2024. So, it appears the Metaverse may get its second wave of enterprise-based interest as the new year arrives.

🖼 Google will allow ads for NFT games starting September 15
Google has updated its cryptocurrency advertising policy to allow for blockchain-based NFT gaming advertisements as long as they don’t promote gambling or gambling services. Advertisements for games allowing players to wager or stake NFTs against other players or for rewards including cryptocurrencies and other NFTS would continue to be banned under the new policy. NFT casino games and any other social betting paradigm that allows players to wager or play for real-world prizes such as NFTs. To run ads that promote gambling-related content that integrate NFTs, developers and publishers will need to “comply with the Gambling and games policy and receive the proper Google Ads certification.” Scott Spencer, the Director of Sustainable Ads at Google at the time, stated that the company had “seen enough consumer harm or potential for consumer harm” that it would continue to approach cryptocurrency related ads with “extreme caution.” In June of 2021 Google softened the ban to allow some companies creating “cryptocurrency exchanges and wallets targeting the United States” to advertise on the platform provided the companies were registered with FinCEN as a Money Services Business or a federal or state-chartered bank entity.

🖼 ONCHAINMONKEY SPENDS OVER $1 MILLION TO MIGRATE NFTS TO BITCOIN
In a move that underscores the momentum of Bitcoin Ordinals protocol ecosystem, the OnChainMonkey (OCM) project has committed to migrating its entire digital art collection from Ethereum to Bitcoin. OnChainMonkey, created by Metagood, became the first profile picture collection created entirely on-chain in a single Ethereum transaction back in 2021. Further, it launched its first Ordinals collection in February shortly after the Ordinals launch. Notably, the decision was supported by a broad portion of OnChainMonkey NFT owners, with users voting to subsidize a portion of the substantial migration cost. The DAO proposal gained overwhelming support, with a quorum of 2,000 votes reached within 24 hours. Overall, 99% of voters backed the migration to Bitcoin, a sign that signals NFT users believe Ordinals on Bitcoin may have a greater value than Ethereum-backed NFTs. "Our OCM community has conviction in our move to Bitcoin. We have been involved with Ordinals since the beginning of the year, and the OCM community, in particular, has a great understanding of the potential and benefits of the migration to Bitcoin," Metagood CEO Danny Yang said.

🖼 Croatia launches platform for investment in pig NFTs
Croatian companies Agroporc, Beyondi, and Block Be have unveiled GoAgro, a platform offering investors an avenue to engage in swine farming by acquiring Pig NFTs. The companies introduced the GoAgro platform during a recent press event. This website allows citizens to participate in the so-called future of food production in Croatia. The flagship project on GoAgro is named “My Digital Pig.”. The recent development is one of recent dabbles into NFTs by prominent entities. On GoAgro, investors can create and own digital pigs. These virtual livestock enable crypto proponents and aspiring farmers to enter the agricultural scene without the necessity of wearing traditional farm attire and engaging in physical farming activities. Every NFT requires a minimum investment of 250 euros and ensures a return of 100 kilograms of pork. The transition from a digital pig to a physical one spans 900 days, with the pig “maturing” at an annual growth rate of 3%. Crucially, investors can exchange or keep their Pig NFTs as long-term investments. They can also engage in trading these digital assets.

🖼 Fidenza creator raises $17M in 30 minutes for new NFT project – The Defiant
The auction started at 50 ETH and ultimately sold out At 14 ETH. Collectors who bid higher were refunded the difference, meaning everyone who participated paid the same price. These passes will allow holders to create custom NFTs using the QQL algorithm, which has been available to the public for some time now. The QQL hoard has seen strong action on secondary markets, pushing it to number two on OpenSea’s leaderboard with a trading volume of over 3,300 ETH ($4.5M). The minimum collection price is 20 ETH, which is up almost 50% in just two days. Hobbs’ inaugural Fidenza Collection remains one of the most popular generic NFT projects. During the Art Blox boom of 2021, a rare NFT from the collection, nicknamed ‘The Tulip’, sold for 1000 ETH ($3.3 million at the time). CryptoPunks have long been considered the ‘original’ profile picture (PFP) NFT. Given away for free in 2017 by creators Larva Labs, Punks really came into their own in the NFT bull run of 2021 and inspired later projects like the popular Bored Ape Yacht Club (BAYC). One of only 24 ape punks in the collection, CryptoPunk #2924 changed hands for 3,300 ETH ($4.45 million) on September 28. Secondary sales volumes continued to decline, with only $114 million traded in the week ending September 26. Volume in dollar terms has now fallen for seven consecutive weeks.
