Digital Twins of Cigar and Watch Brand Will Be Presented
on October 1-2 in Geneva, Switzerland

GENEVA, Switzerland, Sept. 30, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — MetaMinds, a metaverse and spatialweb technology company an entity within Zilliqa Group, is excited to announce its partnership with Cyrus Watches Genève and Patoro Cigars to create a unique augmented reality (AR) experience at the Luxury Innovation Summit. The event is the 6th annual gathering by Luxury Venture Group that showcases the latest trends and technologies in the luxury industry, taking place on October 1-2 in Geneva, Switzerland. It attracts C-level executives and leadership of international brands including LVMH, Kering, Chalhoub Group, etc.

This collaboration positions MetaMinds as the technology partner and leader in creating engaging and interactive experiences that enhance brand visibility and unlocks new ways of customer acquisition, especially appealing to brands entering the ‘engagement economy’ and targeting Gen Z audiences.

In 2024, the revenue in the cigars market worldwide so far amounts to US $23.4 bn with a projected CAGR of 4.12% from 2024 to 2029. It generated the highest revenue of US $13,330 mln in the United States this year when compared globally. The total luxury goods market has declined by 1-3% according to a study by Bain and Company causing the transformation that prioritizes experiences, emotional connections, and personalization, aligning with the needs and desires of modern consumers.

“The luxury industry is facing a profound shift, and we are excited to work with Cyrus Watches and Patoro Cigars, pioneers in embracing the innovative approach required to address declining customer demand. Moreover, luxury continues to evolve and is transforming into a lifestyle, rather than a mere product. We at MetaMinds aim to close this gap for luxury brands and help them tap into the ‘experience economy’ through technological means such as bespoke virtual worlds and spatialweb XR pillars by creating the virtual user interface for a web3 integrated CX (customer experience) journey,” – mentioned Sandra Helou, CEO and Co-Founder of MetaMinds Group.

The AR experience designed aims to reflect the craftsmanship required for both the watch and cigar industries by creating new means of engagement for the growing markets and helping brands transition into experiences and the production of digital twins for education and phygital ROI purposes. This occurs through integrating gamification elements, creating crafted digital assets and facilitating user-generated content (UGC) to promote the luxury brands products through immersive experiences.

“Attendees will be able to explore exquisite digital representations of Cyrus Watches, featuring customizable colourways, and Patoro Cigars with the ability to understand more about the industry. Our vision is the “Conquest of innovation and this is the first step in embracing spatialweb technology addressing the market changes and requirements of consumer behavior,” – shared Cyrus Watches and Patoro Cigars Owner, Dr. Pablo Richard.

“We are thrilled to welcome Zilliqa Group, a web3 venture builder which MetaMinds is an entity of, for a consecutive year at our event along with LVMH, Richemont, Chalhoub Group, Kering and others. What makes the Luxury Innovation Summit unique this year is the collaboration between MetaMinds and Cyrus and Patoro that will create an immersive and unforgettable experience for our audience and a vision that we want to carry forward across our Luxury Venture Group portfolio and grow,” – said Deependra Pandey, CEO of Luxury Venture Group.

Launching the first of its kind tokenised fund raising and carbon credit trading platform, to enhance Kazakhstan’s Role in the Global Digital Economy through Eco-Friendly Digital Mining Operations

SINGAPORE, Oct. 4, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — AQGroup, Kazakhstan’s leading green electricity producer and a leader in infrastructure development for computing services – including data centers for artificial intelligence, digital mining, and international IT companies, together with MVGX Group, a pioneering Singapore-based digital green fintech group led by MVGX Holdings Pte. Ltd. are proud to announce a first-of-its-kind strategic partnership. This partnership seeks to leverage on the knowledge, expertise and know-hows of three key members of the MVGX Group in relation to their respective industries – Metaverse Green Exchange Pte. Ltd., MetaComp Pte. Ltd. and MVGX Tech Pte. Ltd.

The two groups have formally signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) during the prestigious global conference, “Token 2049 Singapore“, marking the beginning of an ambitious collaboration. This MoU outlines plans to construct an innovative hybrid green power plant that combines wind, solar, and battery energy storage systems, ensuring a sustainable supply of green electricity to AQGroup’s Data Centres. Additionally, it lays the groundwork for the establishment of a joint carbon credit trading exchange in Kazakhstan, driving forward a shared vision for sustainable energy solutions and carbon market development in the region.

Kazakhstan, the world’s 9th largest country by territory, holds enormous potential for green energy production through wind and solar power plants (WPPs and SPPs) equipped with energy storage systems. The country’s proximity to China offers unique advantages, including access to high-quality equipments for WPPs and SPPs, alongside significant savings on logistics.

Additionally, the Kazakhstani government with its favorable government regulations—such as a 10-year tax exemption for renewable energy projects—offers a highly supportive environment for green energy development. Their advantageous geographical location between Europe and Asia, positions the country as an emerging regional hub for Data Centres, providing computing services to global markets.

MVGX Group, leveraging its strategic position as a Singapore-based group of companies, is well-positioned to build a financial bridge that empowers the generation and sale of green electricity from Kazakhstan’s green mining initiatives. This partnership offers seamless access to Singapore’s advanced financial services and dynamic capital markets. As the financial hub of South-East Asia, Singapore with its forward-thinking regulatory frameworks has attracted many advanced financial and fintech solutions to set up their headquarters here. MVGX Group seeks to leverage Singapore’s strength as a pivotal force in driving Web 3.0 innovation across the region.

By combining the competitive advantages of both countries, this partnership establishes a strong foundation for sustainable energy initiatives and financial infrastructure. It also creates a strong bridge of friendship and forges long-lasting, mutually beneficial cooperation between the business communities of Kazakhstan and Singapore for many years to come.

In his speech, the Chairman and the Co-Founder of AQGroup Islambek Salzhanov said, “We are very pleased to begin mutually beneficial cooperation with MVGX Group in this transformational project. Together, we will leverage our resources to promote sustainable initiatives, from green energy generation to developing a robust financial infrastructure for Web 3.0. This partnership affirms our shared vision of creating a cleaner and greener future.”

Dr. Bo Bai, the Executive Chairman and the Co-Founder of MVGX Group, added, “By combining our efforts with AQGroup’s extensive experience in green energy and operation of the Data centers, including digital mining, we aim to create a powerful platform that not only supports environmentally sustainable practices but also establishes a global hub for sustainable green digital mining and carbon credit trading.”

MVGX Group and AQGroup plan to leverage respective resources to establish a dedicated investment fund to be distributed by Metaverse Green Exchange Pte. Ltd., a capital market service license holder under the MVGX Group, to special classes of investors. The investment fund seeks to attract substantial financing for this groundbreaking joint project. This fund will not only support the construction and operation of green energy infrastructure but also, drive innovative financial solutions, such as the tokenization of real-world assets (RWA) with the technological support of MetaComp Pte. Ltd. By leveraging blockchain technology, the tokenization process will enable these special classes of investors to participate in the green energy sector in new and efficient ways, fostering transparency, liquidity, and accessibility in sustainable investments. This forward-thinking approach highlights the partners’ commitment to integrating digital finance with renewable energy development, setting a new standard for future projects in the sector.

In addition to seeking investment, both AQGroup and MVGX Group are open to collaboration with a wide array of partners. They are inviting investors interested in green energy, as well as equipment manufacturers specializing in WPPs and SPPs, energy storage system suppliers, and experienced EPC contractors. These collaborations are vital to creating an integrated value chain for sustainable energy production and computing services, further solidifying the partnership’s role as a leader in advancing global sustainability and technological innovation. Together, AQGroup and MVGX Group aim to forge long-lasting industry relationships that drive their shared vision for a greener, more innovative future.

Mysterious Trader Makes $150,000 Profit in 3 Hours From Just $2,956: Blockchain Analysis

Published

on

mysterious-trader-makes-$150,000-profit-in-3-hours-from-just-$2,956:-blockchain-analysis

A new Ethereum meme coin, Pochita ($POCHITA), has made headlines after skyrocketing in value shortly after its launch. According to on-chain data, one trader turned an initial investment of $3,000 into $150,000 in under three hours, reflecting a near-5000% profit. This rapid surge has drawn comparisons to other meme coins like Bonk ($BONK), which gained significant attention in the Solana ecosystem.

Pochita launched on October 2, 2024, quickly reaching a $20 million market cap within 9 hours, despite the broader crypto market contracting by 2.9% over the past 24 hours. The meme coin sector also dipped 3.2%, now valued at $47.5 billion. Despite the falling prices, Pochita’s rapid rise suggests strong investor sentiment around meme coins remains, especially following recent Federal Reserve interest rate cuts.

Though meme coins are known for their volatility and lack of clear fundamentals, they can provide quick gains for traders. Pochita is being discussed as a potential successor to Bonk, and if it continues its growth, it could join the ranks of other top meme coins like Dogecoin, Shiba Inu, and Pepe Coin.

At the same time, other projects such as Crypto All-Stars ($STARS) are providing new avenues for meme coin holders by offering a unified staking platform where users can stake various meme coins and earn rewards. Crypto All-Stars has already raised over $1.9 million in its presale, indicating strong interest in platforms that provide utility and passive income opportunities for meme coin enthusiasts.
