Ekta Collaborates with UnixGaming to Sponsor Blockchain Scholarships

Published

on

 

Ekta, a new NFT and DeFi blockchain mainnet which merges the on-chain world with the physical-world, is pleased to reveal its collaboration with UnixGaming—the largest play-to-earn Axie Infinity Guild community on Discord, boasting over 75,000 new members this month alone.

Axie Infinity, an Ethereum NFT-based online video game developed by Vietnamese studio Sky Mavis, is rapidly becoming one of the most significant blockchain-gaming titles in the world. As a blockchain-enabled gaming universe where anyone can earn tokens through skilled gameplay and contributions to the ecosystem, Axie has attracted thousands of players from developing countries in the pursuit of a new income stream during the COVID pandemic.

Many of these new players have never used blockchain technology before, which is why Ekta and UnixGaming — one of the most populous guilds for Axie Infinity — have teamed up to offer blockchain scholarships to Axie Infinity players, so that they can play-to-earn and receive blockchain education at the same time.

Berwin Tanco, Co-founder and CEO at Ekta, says:

“What we’re really hoping to achieve through this collaboration with UnixGaming is the creation of a new class of entrepreneurs from developing economies. New value models, such as play-to-earn, are teaching the youth in economically disadvantaged areas new methods of wealth creationwhich we hope will inspire them to build new projects that can be incubated and encouraged through the Ekta ecosystem. We look forward to supporting UnixGaming’s future endeavours.

With sales of Axie Infinity’s NFT collections exceeding some US$42 million since June 2021, Ekta also hopes to learn valuable insights into the NFT marketplace that it can leverage for its own NFT offerings.

Mirko Basil, Cofounder at UnixGaming, says:

“We are thrilled to work alongside Ekta, who share our vision of utilizing blockchain to give everyone a chance at a better life. This relationship is a natural fit, and our Axie Infinity Guild is just the start for UnixGaming’s missions. With Ekta’s continued support, we can now look to fulfill our vision of bringing opportunities to people from developing countries through gaming and blockchain education, while also creating a profit sharing structure for our investors and token holders alike. We look forward to a long and fruitful relationship with Ekta!”

Ekta will soon launch its token sale, making $EKTA available for purchase on the 20th of August, 2021 at 15:00 UTC. You can whitelist now to participate.

The United Nations International Computing Center (UNICC) and ShelterZoom are pleased to announce a new innovative blockchain-based solution for controlling and protecting the digital data of UN entities and other international organizations. As the largest strategic partner for digital solutions and cybersecurity within the UN system, UNICC has partnered with ShelterZoom, a leading data and content protection and ownership SaaS company behind innovations such as Document Token® technology and Document GPS®.

Building upon the 50 years of experienced innovation from the UNICC, the two organizations collaborated on a transformational undertaking offering robust protection and promising increased productivity for document tracking and management. ShelterZoom will contribute its proprietary document tokenization technology, along with its data protection, document tracking and e-signature solutions to deliver a white-labeled platform, giving member organizations a greater level of governance over their content. Using ShelterZoom’s flagship proprietary Single Source Of Truth® technology, the solution provides a means for each file to be protected individually without changing user normal habits instead of having to rely solely on protecting files at the database level. This ‘singularity and control’ is a new era in cybersecurity and document management, which has never been seen before at this level of seamless integration with existing tools.

“The synergy between what we deliver and the goals of the United Nations are a perfect match for Single Source Of Truth,” said Chao Cheng-Shorland, CEO and Cofounder of ShelterZoom. “We have said from the beginning that it is time to think about cybersecurity in a completely new way and in doing so we have created a solution to address other operational pain points while simultaneously solving one of the biggest challenges facing the global population today. The UN is at the frontlines of changing the world for the better and its forward-thinking approach to using technology to address fundamental issues is critical in improving livelihoods for all.”

ShelterZoom solutions have already been in use across dozens of industries and with this new commercial partnership, they can now extend their usefulness to the UN family and other international organizations. The revolutionary method for complete document tracking with built-in productivity tools, such as digital signatures and a market-first method for organizing files inside email, is an all-in-one solution built for a global workforce. The Single Source of Truth model has the added benefit of decreasing the carbon footprint created by excessive digital waste, further supporting the sustainability goals of the United Nations.

“The need for robust cybersecurity and data protection has never been greater,” said Sameer Chauhan, Director of UNICC. “By working together with ShelterZoom, we have developed a cutting-edge tool tailored to the needs of the UN family. Our unwavering commitment to providing best-in-class solutions ensures we continue to support the digital transformation and modernization of the UN system and other international organizations.”
