METABORA SINGAPORE Updates BORA 3.0 and Adopts Deflationary Tokenomics
- Through the update, integration of dual-token structure and revised token gas fee policy has been integrated
- Transition to Deflationary Tokenomics with Gas Fee Burning Mechanism
SINGAPORE, June 12, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — METABORA SINGAPORE (CEO Gyehan Song) announced that it has updated BORA mainnet to version 3.0 and completed the implementation of deflationary tokenomics on June 12th.
This update includes several key changes that were approved at the 5th BORA Governance Council (GC) General Meeting on April 25.
These changes include:
- Integration of the dual-token structure of tBORA and bGAS into a single BORA mainnet token,
- Introduction of a token gas fee policy to stimulate the BORA chain,
- Migration of onboarding games and blockchain services deployed on BORA 2.0 to the updated mainnet.
Additionally, the previous inflation model has been abandoned in favor of a new ‘Dynamic Token Burning Model,’ which burns a certain proportion of BORA paid as gas fees. The initial burning rate under this model is set at 50%.
With these changes, BORA is set to transition to a deflationary tokenomics model. The plan is to further activate token burning through the enhancement of blockchain services linked to new games and other content scheduled for release in the second half of the year.
In line with its business expansion, BORA will also introduce new onboarding content sequentially. This includes the launch of multiple titles in the global market, such as a baseball simulation game based on a major global IP and ‘Birdie Squad 2024,’ which features live coverage of KLPGA. These initiatives aim to expand the BORA ecosystem into the sports and entertainment content sectors.
Through this mainnet update, Metabora Singapore plans to show an evolved BORA service and ecosystem.
Meanwhile, METABORA SINGAPORE is expanding cross-chains with various global platforms such as Polygon, Near Protocol, Ethereum, and Binance Chain to expand the global ecosystem of BORA and is preparing for a variety of content services beyond games.
Detailed information about BORA 3.0 Mainnet update is available on the BORA Portal website.

KuCoin Advances the “Menstrual Equity Project”, Benefiting 4,000 Women in the Bahamas
NASSAU, Bahamas, Jan. 2, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — On December 31, 2024, the “Menstrual Equity Project” , jointly initiated by KuCoin, Global CSR Foundation, and the American Medical Women’s Association (AMWA), has made new progress. The second batch of aid supplies has been successfully shipped to the Bahamas, providing urgently needed sanitary products for 4,000 local women and effectively improving their quality of life.
The “Menstrual Equity Project” aims to offer sustainable menstrual hygiene solutions to marginalized women and girls, aligning with the United Nations’ Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). As the oldest multi-specialty medical organization promoting women’s advancement in the medical field and improving women’s health, AMWA’s mission is in perfect alignment with KuCoin’s commitment to social responsibility.
With the support of the Office of the First Lady of Commonwealth of Bahamas H. E. Ann Marie Davis, this round of donated materials focuses on disposable menstrual pads. This decision reflects the local challenges of water scarcity and high washing costs, while also providing essential emergency supplies for women during natural disasters such as hurricanes and typhoons.
Since KuCoin made a firm commitment to social welfare initiatives during the “KuCoin Green Future Gala” at the 28th United Nations Climate Change Conference (COP28) in 2023, the company has actively fulfilled its corporate social responsibilities. The “Menstrual Equity Project” has become a key initiative under this commitment.
In March 2024, the project’s first phase was implemented, distributing 1,000 menstrual kits—each containing 10 sanitary pads and 2 menstrual cups—to Suriname, St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital, and domestic violence shelters in New York and California.
The smooth delivery of the second batch of supplies to the Bahamas will benefit 4,000 women.
Jing Zhao Cesarone,President of Global CSR Foundation, commented:”KuCoin has set a remarkable example in addressing period poverty in underserved regions, demonstrating its enthusiasm and dedication to social responsibility.”
Nancy Cheung, KuCoin’s Chief Sustainability Officer (CSO), emphasized:”As a global leader in the digital economy, KuCoin is committed to advancing the UN’s Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). Looking ahead, we will continue to focus on key areas such as climate change, health, and education, driving more philanthropic initiatives to fruition. We also plan to expand the scope of the ‘Menstrual Equity Project,’ collaborating with more international organizations to improve women’s living conditions and contribute to global sustainable development.”
