🖼 Galaxis Says NFTs Are Maturing Towards ‘Genuine-Utility’, as 95% Of Digital Collectibles May Now Be Useless
CEO and founder András Kristof believes as people become more educated about NFTs, the focus will be on utilities. The inventor of Tembusu Terminals (first Bitcoin ATMs) in Singapore says he’s spent the last two years building a post-hype utility NFT platform. Although, founder András Kristof is gratified to see people almost unknowingly engaging with digital collectibles worldwide amidst the ‘NFT winter’ of late. These significant developments shed light on members within the NFT industry ‘picking through the wreckage’. Over the course of 2021, beginning earnestly with the landmark Beeple sale, the NFT market was sky high, with around $1 billion a week – with average prices of NFTs above $3,000, despite the turbulent market. Like most other economic bubbles that eventually burst, the NFT bubble has done so in spectacular fashion with an NFT collapse of 95 percent. Although what triggered the crash is unclear, the fall in demand – catalysed by a slump in the cryptocurrency market has wiped out billions of the combined value of all NFTs in circulation. Kristof says the new breed of use cases is surfacing that take advantage of the particular properties of NFTs (such as Chainlink’s CCIP that allows people to move NFTs cross-chain), which is one of the core factors at Galaxis.

📣 Microsoft Shuts Down Industrial Metaverse AI Projects
This week, reports from BussinessInsider highlighted how Microsoft is closing down Project Airsim, an AI ambition tied to the firm’s Industrial Metaverse roadmap. As part of the closure, Microsoft is also laying off the project’s employees as it plans to discontinue the Azure AI-based service by December 15 2023. Moreover, the news comes after Microsoft shut down Bonsai, another acquired start-up set to play a significant role in the firm’s industrial Metaverse. The acquisitions were initially led by Microsoft’s Chief Technology Officer Kevin Scott, who also directed the firm’s OpenAI partnership. While the two services appeared to play an important role in Microsoft’s long-standing industrial Metaverse roadmap – with a 2024 launch window – the firm may be closing Bonsai and Airsim to streamline Metaverse-based AI services towards OpenAI technology. Following the rise of emerging genAI, Microsoft entered a deep partnership with Chat GPT developers OpenAI to expand genAI business use cases across its digital services portfolio- including the Industrial Metaverse. OpenAI is bringing great value to Microsoft. The firm is working on AI integrations into its Teams and Dynamics 365 portfolio, including Co-Pilot, which promises to bring great value to Microsoft customers.

Singapore court authorizes freeze order attached to wallets as soulbound NFT
The Singapore High Court has allowed financial investigation firm Intelligent Sanctuary (iSanctuary) to attach nonfungible tokens (NFTs) containing a legal document to cold wallets associated with a hack, according to United Kingdom-based iSanctuary and local press accounts. A court-issued worldwide freeze order was tokenized as soulbound NFTs and attached to the wallets in question. The NFTs will not prevent transactions with the wallets but will serve as a warning to counterparties and exchanges.
In addition, iSanctuary claimed it has devised a means of tracking funds leaving the wallets, thanks to the NFTs. The NFTs will be permanently attached to the wallets. No additional details were provided. iSanctuary named Mintology, an app created by Singaporean NFT studio Mintable, as the producer of the NFTs.

🖼 Australia’s $145M exchange scandal, Bitget claims 4th, China lifts NFT ban: Asia Express
Changjiang Currency Exchange, a money transmitter business based in Australia, has beenbustedin a 230 million Aussie dollar ($145 million) money laundering scandal. On Oct. 26, a 300-strong police operation spanning Melbourne, Sydney, Brisbane, Adelaide and Perth arrested seven individuals — four Chinese citizens and three Australian nationals — after a 14-month investigation. Operating under the front of a legitimate currency exchange business, police say that Changjiang Currency Exchange helped launder dirty funds. In one single incident, a 37-year-old Chinese national was accused of using Changjiang’s services to launder AU$100 million ($63 million) worth of funds received from a multinational Ponzi scheme. The investigation began after law enforcement officials noticed irregular traffic at Changjiang kiosks across Australia during a time of strict COVID-19-related lockdowns. Police have since seized AU$21 million ($13.27 million) in cash and various luxury items believed to have been purchased using proceeds of crime. The investigation remains ongoing. Bitget claimed that its market share had risen to 9.43%, compared to negligible volume just two years ago. During Q3 2023, the exchange says it onboarded over 9,000 traders along with 85,000 followers or copy-traders, who together achieved a net trading profit of $6.7 million.

🔫 WGIC releases report on the geospatial industry’s place in the metaverse
The term “metaverse” was first brought into the English lexicon over 30 years ago, with author Neal Stephenson introducing the word in his 1992 book Snow Crash. For a long while after that, the word was largely under-the-radar, thought of as theoretical when it did come up, but the last few years have seen a surge and subsequent crashing of public opinion about the idea. In the time since, we have seen about as strong a representation of the Gartner Hype Cycle as one can remember in recent times. A lot of the work being done in this area continues to be spearheaded by geospatial companies and those adjacent to the space, because as we’ve talked about before geospatial concepts are central to this idea of a metaverse. While the hype has died down since that article was published, it remains the case, and this point was recently hammered home once again with the release of a report by the WGIC entitled Bringing Geospatial Context to the Metaverse: Considerations for the Next Steps. The point of this report, as the title suggests, is to bring “geospatial context to the metaverse and provide specific considerations for the next steps towards expanding the value proposition of geospatial technology.”

🇬🇧 UK risks regulating NFTs the wrong way, says Mintable CEO
The United Kingdom’s government is in danger of regulating nonfungible tokens (NFTs) in a way that doesn’t suit the true nature of the nascent technology, says Mintable CEO and founder Zach Burks. In an interview with Cointelegraph, Burks said he believes a recent report from a U.K. parliamentary committee significantly exaggerates the role NFTs play in copyright infringement and fails to recognize that they are more than just volatile digital pictures. “NFTs are in a transition phase where they’re moving away from the speculative boom of PFPs, and now it’s going into utilities of brands implementing NFTs across a whole range of different things,” Burks explained. In the Oct. 11 report, the Culture, Media and Sport Committee urged the government to take action to protect artists and content creators from copyright infringement associated with NFTs. Burks acknowledged that copyright protections and intellectual property rights for artists are of paramount importance, pointing to Mintable’s own IP protection algorithm it uses to prevent plagiarism on its platform. However, he explained that while these issues should be a top priority for all NFT platforms.
