The world’s first voice NFT, Voiceverse Origins, launched with 8,888 NFTs on January 29th and sold out in less than 10 minutes of public sale, a highly rare occurrence for NFT collections stored on the Ethereum blockchain.

Founded by 3 BAYC members, Voiceverse looks to pioneer the NFT space into the next generation of NFTs containing high intrinsic utility, allowing holders to own a voice in the metaverse. With Voice NFTs, people can now customize their Profile Picture (PFP) NFTs with a voice, adding another dimension of personalization and pseudonymity.

Holders can:
1) Use the voices in metaverse spaces, from games to video calls and more.
2) Create a Voice NFT of their own voice, or with explicit permission, those of their loved ones.
3) Mix different Voice NFTs to “breed” a new voice NFT.
4) Add voices to their existing PFP NFTs, giving them a whole new life.

Voiceverse is powered by LOVO, its parent company based out of San Francisco and Seoul, with a strong track record in the AI Speech Synthesis space. As a venture capital-backed startup with partnerships with celebrity voice actors, Voiceverse has entered the NFT scene with considerable momentum. Partnerships include voice actors such as Charlet Chung, Andy Milonakis and Jonny Cruz.

After a week of pre-sale, Voiceverse Origins sold out in 10 minutes and has been trending in all categories on OpenSea. It has also been consistently in the top 10 for sales volume (by count). Given its background in AI and speech synthesis, Voiceverse looks to shake up the industry and spark a trend towards 2nd gen NFTs.

Spain-based BitCoin wallet provider, HandCash, has now packaged, in just one toolkit, the basic components every BitCoin application developer needs. Named ‘HandCash Connect’, the new BitCoin app software development kit is an all-in-one toolkit with six basic components that every developer can use to easily build new applications on the BitCoin SV (BSV) blockchain. The toolkit reduces each key component to simple code snippets in plain English. All a developer needs to do is call the APIs and the Cloud will do all the heavy lifting for them, so they can quickly start building powerful BitCoin applications. This is made possible because HandCash uses the BitCoin SV blockchain, the only chain that significantly scales (now), is regulation-friendly and has robust utility.

The BSV blockchain’s greater scaling, data and micropayment capabilities allow enterprises to build great BitCoin applications. HandCash want developers to focus on their business and customers instead of worrying about the BitCoin component the business sits on top of. HandCash will take care of all that, leaving developers to create apps and services, as well getting visibility on our umbrella app.

But what can be built with it?:

As HandCash Connect is a backend solution, instead of a frontend, so apps and games can be built on any platform – be it mobile, tablet, desktop, web or even for a smart fridge.

Essentially, this SDK allows developers to take advantage of all the powerful properties of BitCoin as a technology platform without any complex BitCoin protocol development skills to learn or infrastructure to maintain.

Also introducing the HandCash App Store:

With the intention of bringing more utility and fun to users, HandCash will also be launching the HandCash App Store, one place where all Bitcoin apps are available.

Many companies have already agreed to participate in the HandCash App Store by either integrate with the HandCash Connect toolkit or build apps entirely based on it.

The pre-launch integration program is now open. Just click here to start building the next big Bitcoin app and get free exposure to thousands of loyal HandCash users.
