Faruk Fatih Özer stood in front of a passport control officer at Istanbul Airport, a line of impatient travelers queuing behind him. He pulled his face mask below his chin for the security camera. Surely he was nervous. The 27-year-old had unruly black hair, a boy-band face, and a patchy beard. Normally he overcompensated for his callow features by dressing in a pressed three-piece suit. But this spring day he wore black trainers and a navy-blue sweater hastily pulled over a white polo shirt, as if he had dressed in a dash. A small backpack was slung over his right shoulder. He looked like someone who could have been going on a last-minute day trip—or someone planning to never come back. At 5:57 pm on April 20, 2021, the guard stamped his Turkish passport and Özer shuffled through the crowd to Gate C, a flash drive containing a rumored $2 billion (£1.6 billion) in crypto stashed in his belongings.

After Özer’s plane reached Tirana, Albania, at 9:24 that night, he checked into the Mondial, a popular 4-star business hotel in the capital’s commercial district. A couple of days later, he looked at his social media accounts. A mob was very angry with him: Customers couldn’t access their money on the exchange Thodex, where he was founder and CEO, and people were accusing him of absconding with their funds.

Özer posted a public letter to his company’s website and his social accounts. “I feel compelled to make this statement in order to respond urgently to these allegations,” he wrote. The accusations weren’t true, he said. Thodex—which had nearly half a million investors and $500 million (£400 million) in daily trade volume—was investigating what Özer claimed was a suspected cyberattack that caused “an abnormal fluctuation in the company account.” Assets would be frozen for five days while Thodex resolved the issue. This was terribly bad timing for the big business deal he said he was en route to make: selling the company, or so he had told some employees and his brother and sister before he left. All would be made right. “There will be no victims,” he promised. “I personally declare that I will return to Turkey within a few days and ensure that the facts are revealed in cooperation with judicial authorities and that I will do my best to prevent users from suffering.” Of course, there was this possibility too: He was in the midst of pulling off the biggest heist in Turkey’s history.

Before dawn the day after Özer posted the letter, police squads fanned out across Istanbul and public prosecutors opened an investigation. Law enforcement arrested 62 people, including Thodex employees at all levels of the company—and Özer’s older brother and sister, Güven and Serap. Interpol issued a red notice, a request for law enforcement worldwide to find and “provisionally arrest” Özer pending his extradition to Turkey. Search teams deployed across Albania, Montenegro, Kosovo, and North Macedonia. There were reported sightings of the dark-haired young man across Tirana, rumors that he had gone to a poultry farm, that an executive from the Albanian football league was sheltering him. Soon, the Albanian police arrested people accused of aiding and abetting him. But no one seemed to know exactly where Özer was.

Özer had vanished at a particularly precarious time in crypto’s annals: In the weeks leading up to his disappearance, so-called rug pulls—when a cryptocurrency exchange or altcoin developer absconds with investors’ funds—had crypto investors around the globe flabbergasted. The CEO of Mirror Trading International, a crypto trading company based in South Africa, defrauded users of more than $1 billion, then skipped town; TurtleDex, an anonymous decentralized finance storage project on Binance, reportedly vanished with $2.4 million; another decentralized finance project, Meerkat, reportedly fleeced investors out of $31 million (of which they paid back 95 percent). Blockchain analysis firm Chainalysis ranked rug pulls as the primary scam of 2021, accounting for 37 percent of all cryptocurrency scam revenue that year, up from 1 percent the year before.

Thodex was at the top of that roster, and nearly every major outlet from Bloomberg to Newsweek published headlines like “Turkish Crypto Exchange Goes Bust as Founder Flees Country” and “Turkish Cryptocurrency Founder Faruk Fatih Özer Seen Fleeing Country With Suspected $2 Billion From Investors.” CoinGeek called it “the biggest scam in the digital asset industry in 2021.” The New York Times’ headline read, “Possible Cryptocurrency Fraud Is Another Blow to Turkey’s Financial Stability.” In Turkey, the country I now call home, people were reeling: For years, crypto had been built up—largely by Özer but by others too—as a way out of economic volatility. Now it seemed like just another way to lose your life savings. But something felt off to me, like the whole story wasn’t being told.

Welcome! :3

If you are here right now more than likely you are a Twitter crypto artist denizen who has heard me, @maxcapacity and probably many other shouting about Tumblr on Twitter. Why Tumblr? It is part nostalgia, part necromancy, part homage to the the Web3 greats who spent years here (some are still here), part rebellion, and part reminding artists to come together to help each other.

Twitter heavily favors text base tweets - it's just a fact. Here is not the case. Many of us are also maybe a little jaded on what is happening overall and feel ignored as artists. Discord is full of scams, twitter group chats are cliquey, but here we are free to roam, explore each others works, and create a visual digital identity we want to present.

Come play with us and remember why we are all here! For the art, to make friends, express ourselves, have a good time and build a better future for artists. Yes we all want to sell work too ofc - we have physical bodies to take care of and bills to pay - but what if we share with each other our wins and how we got them, and our failures and what we learned from them as artists so when we go back to the rest of the internet hellscape we can find more success? At the very least, make some friends here or rekindle connects that may have been lost to not feel so alone. For some of you this is a trip down memory lane, for others you have never been here before. Old or new a like I encourage you to check out who I am following to get started finding each other.

This isn't rocket science - if you can understand blockchain web3 stuff, I have faith you can understand this old beast of a social network. Love you all ~~~ <3

P.S. I'm writing this for specific purposes of a pinned post. It feels so good to be able to write more than 150 characters. Also here are multi gifs side by side -- for the culture.

EDIT: Because I can edit and also adding this - for the culture 🫡🚫

~We are here to focus on the art and building up artists and to build an open, non hierarchal structure to provide mutual support for each other while showcasing the hard work and dope art crypto artists do to try to shape the landscape of web3 to be more artist friendly for ALL artists from diverse backgrounds. ~ Here are some guidelines to foster a healthy community growth:

~ NO SHILL POST/ART SHARE POSTS - why? we want the focus to go back on the artist and deep thoughts, not engagement farming. Shilling/art share is a viable way on twitter to get your art out there because of how the social media is structured. Here - content is the focus. You can discover new artists a multitude of ways including searching hashtags, looking through your fav artists feed of who they are sharing or following, and generally just wandering around.

~ INDEPENDENT ARTIST FOCUS - 10k pfp projects are a part of the nft ecosystem, and thrive on twitter, but here we want to again have the focus stay on independent artists. A basic issue with these projects is to access a lot of their communities they are token gated, and a lot of artists just can't afford them. Also many feel we are drowning in the noise of a lot of the politics and drama that goes on between projects, and need a place again to share ourselves with each other for feedback, support and overall good times.

~ REPORT AND BLOCK THE HATERS / KILL WITH KIDNESS- anywhere on the internet hate is prevalent for lots of different reasons related to our content and not. Bullies are cowards, and to bully someone for a technology they use is boring. Tumblr also does not tolerate hate and harassment in any form. Maybe someone is having a bad day and if able extend kindness. For extreme comments, report them. For continual harassers, block them. This is your space to curate how you wish. We deserve to be here as artists as anyone else, and hope to on top of supporting each other showcase our dope af work we are doing within the crypto art ecosystems to show we aren't all scammers, just artists trying to build a better future.

On Christmas Eve, Ebeneezer Scrooge fell asleep in the server farm of his Cryptocurrency mine. In the background, the soft wash of LED displays and gentle hum of cooling fans filled the basement. He'd recently expanded his operation, having gotten a great deal on hardware in the Cyber Monday sales. So he was sung to sleep by the gentle guzzling of electricity and the slow accumulation of what might (by some) be considered wealth. Throughout the long night, he was visited by three ghosts. The whole business played out more or less as you'd expect, so we won't overly dwell on it here. Where things really started to go FUBAR was when Scrooge awoke… Looking out the security cameras on the snowy morning, Scrooge spied an urchin child. He pressed the buzzer on the speaker and cried out to them! "You, boy! What day is it?" "What? I can't hear you." "Hold on, I'll come upstairs!" Scrooge ran up the dingy stairwell of his minimalist and kinda grungy compound, stopping only to disarm his top of the line security system. He stepped out into the brisk winter, and very nearly forgot to reset the alarm in his excitement. Then he remembered he had prime numbers in there, damn it! So he did reset the primary alarm, but didn't bother with the non-lethal countermeasures, and that was something at least. "Thanks for waiting!" He huffed. "So, boy … what day is it?" "Not a boy!" Came the shrill reply. "Girl, then! What day is it?" "Not that either!" "Look, kid, this isn't a game of what's your fucking gender. Just tell me what day it is!" "It's solstice day, sir!" Said the urchin, looking up at a dishevelled Scrooge with their big urchin eyes. "Wait, really? …You're sure it's not Christmas? I fell asleep on Christmas Eve…" "I guess you slept for near a year, then, ‘cos I celebrate solstice and it's the gods-damned solstice." “I don’t know how to process that!” Cried Scrooge. “Maybe there’s a specific detail you can focus on to ground you?” Suggested the urchin, in a surprisingly helpful bit of trauma advice. “OH!” Exclaimed Scrooge. “Tell me, child, the butcher’s nearby. Does it still have that big turkey in the window?” “The butcher’s closed down six months back, I’m afraid! But I think there’s an Amazon Fresh around here somewhere?” Said the urchin. “That’ll do!” Scrooge rummaged around in his pockets. “Here, take this printout of a Jpeg of a poorly drawn frog and go buy me the biggest turkey you can find in Amazon Fresh. Then deliver it to Bob Cratchet!” “Even Amazon won’t take your NFT bullshit as currency, mister!” “Okay - I can give you cash.” Scrooge paused for a moment. “Do you have Venmo?” “I’m a street urchin.” Replied the street urchin. “Of course I have Venmo.” “Great. I’ll transfer you now - keep the change.” “I don’t mean to look a gift crypto bro in the mouth, sir, but aren’t you famously stingy? Like, your name’s literally a synonym for tight-fisted penny-pinching.” “That’s the old Scrooge. I got visited by three ghosts last night and now I’m a new man.” Said Scrooge, proudly, before added conspiratorially, “At first, I thought I’d just drank a bad batch of Soylent. But they were pretty convincing in the end.” “So you’re going to donate all your money to charity or start a non-profit or something?” The urchin said with open-mouthed awe. "I don't know. It's kind of ambiguous. I might do those things, or maybe I'll keep being rich and be a bit nicer? "Okay, so now you're closer to a Bill Gates rather than full Musk/Bezos on the scale of evil billionaires.” The urchin looked directly into the camera for a full three seconds. “And we’re supposed to celebrate that? “Look, it was pretty fucking radical for its time, okay?” Said Scrooge, snapping his fingers to stop the urchin breaking the fourth wall any further. “Are you gonna buy the turkey or what?" “I dunno, man. On the one hand, it feels like if you really changed your tune, you’d do more than buy one turkey for the single poor person whose name you know. On the other hand, you said I could keep the change. So this really is a bind for me…” “If I’m honest,” Said Scrooge, “I really didn’t think it would be this difficult to be charitable. No wonder Elon is the way he is.” “Sigh.” Said the urchin. Saying the word out loud, rather than just sighing, which I think tells you something about the level of frustration here. “You know what, this isn’t gonna work.” “Huh?” Said Scrooge, somewhat nonplussed. “Spot! Here, boys! Heel!” Called the urchin. In the distance, a low rumbling growl could be heard. Out of the shadows of the misty winter morning, a giant three-headed hound emerged, its jaws snapping at Scrooge in triplicate. “AAAARGH!” Yelled Scrooge, now so nonplussed as to be minused. The urchin pulled out a matte black flip phone, decorated with a few tasteful flowers, and made a call. “Hi Persephone, it’s me, Charon.” Said the urchin. “Yeah, I’m up here on psychopomp duty. Yup, it’s the Ebeneezer Scrooge case - y’know, the tech bro who drank too much Red Bull and had a heart attack? Well, we gave him another shot this year, but he’s still a bit of a dickmagnet. He’s made some progress - he understands basic empathy - but we’re still a bit stuck on the ‘myth of the benevolent billionaire’ stage.” In the background, the sound of screaming tech-bro and snarling monster dogs was fading into the distance. “I think we’re gonna call it for the day and give it another try solstice.” Charon continued. “Yeah, Cerberus is dragging him back to the underworld now. Yeah - he did a great job as the three ghosts too - definitely earned a treat. Cool - see you in a few.” Charon flipped the phone closed and took a deep breath. They took a pair of bronze coins out of a pocket of their ragged hoody, and placed them gently over their own eyes. “Hades bless us. Everyone.” They said to no-one, then disappeared.

#writing #short story #a christmas carol #dickens #mythology twist #honestly a christmas carol is excellent and really quite radical #this just felt like a fun update #and i think a lot of the radical-ness of Dickens' writing gets lost in the twee

Medical Practices

A She-Ra: Princess of Power 2018 fanfiction

Hordak have never been to a doctor in his life, nor did he want to; however, after some convincing, he agreed. They know nothing about his illness nor how to treat it, so they need the advice of a professional. Now he and Entrapta are traveling to a doctor's office on a nearby planet, all the while King Micah is reluctantly chaperoning.

*Part Two to Where Do We Go Know?*

_______________

I am very sorry this fic hasn't been updated in a while. Like Alliance of the Heart, I got bored with what needed to happen for the story to progress, but I persisted. Sorry for how short this chapter is. Maybe in the future, I'll go back and edit this, but I hope you enjoy what I have now.

_______________

Chapter 5: Upgrades

Hordak’s nerves seemed to calm as Darla approached the Crypto Castle gates. Even after his talk with Micah, he still felt an uneasiness in his presence. He knew he still hated him. Which is warranted. Giving Hordak all the more reason to get Angella out of that stupid space between dimensions.

The door hissed open and Entrapta and Hordak descended to the ground.

“Get home safe, Micah!” Entrapta called out.

“Thank you, Entrapta.” He turned his head to Hordak. “I wish you both well.”

Hordak knew what Micah was implying. A silent reminder of his promise.

____________________________________

“Alright, so I’ve already had some ideas about your new exoskeleton,” Entrapta shouted, flying around the lab and pulling up multiple files on her large monitors. She sat on a swivel chair and looked at her lab partner. “But, I want to hear your thoughts first.”

“I suppose,” Hordak paused, not used to detailing what he wanted, and even less used to requesting anything regarding his comfort. “I would like something I can comfortably wear under my clothing, as well as something that would give me a wider range of mobility. Furthermore, I just- I just want to look normal.” He replied, defeated as his fists balled up into his pants.

“It’s whatever you want. This is all for you.” She gave him a small smile. “How about this?” She rose from her seat and used her hair to fling her to a wooden crate in the corner. Hordak approached her as she pushed the lid aside.

“A while back some of the Dryllian Labs created this extremely durable nylon.” She handed a sample to Hordak. “It is supposed to be cut and heat resistant as well as hold up well to blunt force trauma.” Hordak fidgeted with the black nylon in his hand, watching it bend and flex with little resistance. It was made of little pieces of nylon locked together, giving a look similar to chainmail. “Factories have been recently using it to cover the moving parts of heavy machinery. Giving the employees a safer working environment. I’ve been looking to use it in one of my inventions, and this would be the perfect place to test it.” She explained, her eyes lighting up in excitement, causing Hordak’s face to soften.

“You are far too kind to me.”

“Correction,” she raised herself to his eye level, “I love you, and I love to do favors for the people I care about.” She placed her hands on his shoulders and gave him a quick peck on the lips. “Now come on, we need to get started.” She wrapped a tendril of hair around a stunned Hordak and dragged him over to a large monitor.

_________________________________

The couple spent the rest of the day and partly into the night tirelessly working on the new exoskeleton. Once again they gained the smooth and fluid workflow they created in the Fright Zone.

Most of their time was dedicated to the design aspects. How should it be proportioned? How to organize the wiring? How to power it? All questions that required a considerable amount of thought.

After much thought, the couple determined a shape proportionate to the rest of Hordak’s large body. The armor covered the ports along his arms, upper back, and neck. Because of the flexible nature of the nylon, it gave Hordak a much wider range of motion than the mostly metal exoskeletons could not; furthermore, the flexibility of the armor let it slip on like a shrug that clipped in the back. Regrettably, they couldn’t use the original crystal from the old armor. After many interactions with Catra resulted in the crystal getting ripped out, the couple decided on an internal power source.

Once the design was finalized, the actual construction flew by. The armor was constructed using an amalgamation of the first one's tech, Prime tech, and tech from the original skeleton all warped in the black nylon.

After the construction was finally complete, Hordak tried it on and breathed a sigh of relief. He breathed as the power of the suit coursed through his veins. It fit perfectly and hugged his skin like a leather glove. He made small circles with his shoulders to gauge his mobility as he fought back a smile. He turned his head toward his beloved who was sitting on a seat of her own hair as she smiled at him.

“Would you like to see what else I have for you?”

“What else do you have for me?”

“One sec.” She disappeared into a darker part of the lab followed by the sound of rustling. After a moment, she reemerged holding something in her hand.

“I know you struggle to remember to eat and drink so I thought you would need something to remind you.” She fastened a device to Hordak’s wrist. “I designed this watch to sync to your armor, so when you are dehydrated or hungry it will tell you. It also has the ability to do anything a regular data pad can do. Like calls, messages, etc.” She explained as she tapped the watch, pulling up a green holographic screen. “Also, when we get your medications in, I can program reminders for those in too. And yes, it is made with first one's tech.”

“Ho- How did you find time for this?” He asked as every ounce of willpower fought back the urge to cry.

“Oh, I’ve been working on it for a while. It’s no big deal. Do you like i-” Entrapta’s question was cut off by Hordak suddenly wrapping his arms around her midsection and squeezing her tightly against his chest.

“Thank you so much, Princess.” He thanked into her neck. He turned his head to give her a kiss on her flushed cheek as he squeezed her even tighter. “You have no idea how much this means to me.”

“You are welcome, Hordak.” She breathed out as her arms and hair hugged him back.

The couple stayed like that for a long time, neither wanting to let the other go.

Lakers take Game 3 from the start

LOS ANGELES (News4usonline) - The Los Angeles Lakers dominated the Memphis Grizzlies in Game 3 of their playoff series Saturday night, coming away with a 111-101 win. The Lakers now lead the series 2-1. Crypto.com Arena was roaring as the Lakers fought hard for the first round playoff win at home. The Lakers got off to an aggressive start in the first quarter creating, jumping out to a 20-point lead early in the first quarter. The game was essentially over then. Fourth quarter starts now pic.twitter.com/GDAjOg3AnD— Los Angeles Lakers (@Lakers) April 23, 2023 The Grizzlies didn’t know what hit them as they were only able to generate nine points in the first period. Yes, nine. When the quarter ended, the Lakers had already built up a 35-9 advantage. By jumping on the Grizzlies the way that they did, the Lakers posted the largest lead after the first quarter in NBA postseason history. The Lakers slammed the Grizzlies into the ground during the beginning of the game, running circles around the Western Conference’s No. 2-seeded team and making them look inexperienced and helpless. Lakers head coach Darvin Ham talked about team’s great defensive play in the first quarter during a postgame press conference. “That was something we touched yesterday in practice,” Ham said. “ Just establishing a defensive minded physical tone and just dig in and multiple efforts, activity, being ready, transition defense is key...and then trying to finish a possession with a rebound.” For the Lakers, Anthony Davis re-introduced himself to the Grizzlies with a huge effort. Davis showed up and showed out, clocking in with a team-high 31 points. He was dominant on the boards as well, picking up 17 rebounds. LeBron James contributed 25 points and collected 9 rebounds to aid the big game that Davis had. Not too bad of an outing for an “old” man. “It’s important for us to play well,” James said after the game. “We want to play better than we did in game two, but I think we did that. But we still have room for improvement going into game four and we know they’re going to be better as well.” With Davis and James having solid all-around games, the Lakers’ top players got some help. D’Angelo Russell clocked in with 17 points, four rebounds and seven assists. Rui Hachimura chipped in 16 points for the purple and gold. In the start of the second quarter, Hachimura had more points (10) than Memphis had on the scoreboard. The Lakers were on fire. High energy and great defense keyed the Lakers getting out fast. The Lakers maintained their large lead when halftime rolled around, going into intermission with a 53-37 lead. Memphis seemed to be overwhelmed by the Lakers’ fast start, putting a dent in the Grizzlies’ Alpha attitude they came out of the gate with. Combined their terrible first quarter along the super loud atmosphere in Crypto, it was clear that it was going to be a long night for Ja Morant and his teammates. The Lakers and their fans got a slight scare when James went down in the beginning of the second half after Memphis guard/forward Dillon Brooks hit the Lakers superstar in the groin. That play was called as a flagrant foul (2) against Brooks, who wound up getting tossed out of the game for the low blow. The drama filled game continued with more aggression and altercations. Hachimura later got into a skirmish with Memphis players David Roddy and John Konchar. Konchar pushed Hachimura as he was running down the court for a play. At the end of the game, Davis addressed the bad blood that appears to spill over from both teams. “We just want to take care of the home floor,” Davis said. “You know, we’re not getting into the back and forth, we let our game speak for ourselves...the trash talk is going to be there with the guys that they have. It’s playoff basketball, we wouldn’t expect anything less from them.” Read the full article

Best Play-to-Earn Games with NFTs or Crypto

Best Play-to-Earn Games with NFTs or Crypto Play-to-earn games (P2E) do what traditional video games don’t — reward players for their time and effort spent in the game. After all, the players do create game content simply by participating and providing interactions for other players. And while many games have switched to the phrase ‘play and earn’, or the term ‘web3’, the idea remains the same — the ability to own game items as NFTs, and the ability to earn while playing in some manner. Sometimes those two things are the same. Sometimes not. But what is the same, is that each P2E game offers a way for players to be rewarded for their in-game activity. Some P2E games will require an initial investment, while others are free to play. But whatever your interest, there is something in the world of blockchain gaming to cover it. And though many games are still in development, they range from simple web games, to mobile, to FPS, to galaxy-spanning strategy games, to MMOs, and more! Keeping track of all of them can be a tough job, and so we’re here to help! Below are a few recommendation as well as our (ever growing, and ever updated) list of web3 enabled games with same basic info as well as links to our articles and game guides! About The Sandbox The Sandbox is an interconnected world of unique game experiences. With land plots of varying sizes, each land owner can build their own creations using a visual game builder. The Sandbox is still in alpha testing, but if you’re interested in play-to-earn games, this should definitely be on your radar. Check out our full The Sandbox review to learn how to get started.

About Axie Infinity Axie Infinity is the most important game developed on a blockchain thus far. The game focuses on breeding, collecting, and battling creatures named Axies and using them to explore the World of Lunacia. At its peak, the marketplace was making millions in sales every day, and Axies were selling for thousands of dollars each.

About Gods Unchained Gods Unchained is a collectible, fantasy, and trading card game built on the Ethereum network. It’s free to play, easy to get started, and offers play-to-earn opportunities right out of the gate.

About fairy cat Fairy Cat gamefi fairycat .net is a virtual pet blockchain game Play to earn. The Fairy Cat Blockchain Game offers players and investors a very unique opportunity to collect, trade, battle and earn rare assets that greatly increase their income. Fairy Cats and all other in-game items will be stored as NFTs with a 1:1 equivalent of USDT in the player's wallet and thus can be sold for profit and freely traded.

About Iluvium Illuvium is actually a suite of games set in the same universe. Illuvium Arena is a PvE, auto-battler, survival contest with leaderboards, Illuvium Zero features base building and NFT crafting for Illuvium Zero, the main game. In Illuvium Zero players wander the land in search of Illuvials to capture. All three games are currently in alpha testing.

The thing is, both Gates and Jobs ran a con. Gates stole Windows from its original creator (who never got a dime) and Jobs built his empire on the sweat and blood of better men. The tale of the "billionaire genius" is a scam. Everyone is looking for a Tony Stark in a world full of Joel Osteens. Intelligence (much like decency and compassion) is more a function of a population than it is an individual. Musk inherited his start up money and scammed the rest. The ugly fact is that the vast majority of the wealthy create nothing, earn nothing, and build nothing. Most of them are lucky to have enough intelligence to tie their own shoes. They married, inherited, or scammed their capital, and spend the rest of their lives using that leverage to steal from the wealth created by the labor of the working class. Yet they presume the right to order the lives of the working class to suit their own prejudices.

Added in Edit: A further point. The "genius creator" of Twitter, Jack Dorsey is a big booster of crypto-currency. Crypto, all crypto, is scam that makes the average ponzi scheme look like a secure hedge-fund and the Powerball lottery look like a sure thing. Dorsey is another perfect example of one mediocre guy with an idea that BETTER PEOPLE, working people, brought to life. He then cashed his chips and walked away. This does NOT make him a demi-god.

The Fusion of AR and Blockchain - Creating Immersive Experiences

The fusion of AR and blockchain is heralding a new frontier for immersive technology, revolutionizing industries, and introducing novel paradigms for interaction and ownership in the digital realm. As crypto increasingly becomes a cornerstone in these technologies, it provides a robust framework for security and verifiable ownership, creating a highly immersive and trustless virtual world.

Augmented reality (AR) overlays digital objects on to the real world, accessed via smartphones and smart glasses. It is much more user-friendly than virtual reality (VR), which requires the wearer to be tethered to a powerful machine and can cause motion sickness. AR has enormous potential to reshape multiple industries and is set to transform social media, gaming, shopping, education, and more. However, the persistent challenges that crippled the Web 2 internet age persist, most notably around data ownership and management.

Moreover, the metaverse is still in its infancy and requires an infrastructure to support it. While some companies have created their own social networking platforms, the majority of metaverse content is still hosted on centralised sites. However, with the emergence of blockchain technology, it is possible to create metaverses that are self-governed and independent from centralised social networks.

These developments Best VPN Services of 2024 are also enabling AR and VR to become the basis for decentralized social networks. Start-ups such as Cappasity are enabling users to create their own 3D objects and share them with others on social networks, removing the need for a third party to host content in the metaverse. In doing so, these businesses are establishing an open platform that could eventually replace major social media sites.

While most of the chatter around the metaverse focuses on immersive VR, the emergence of AR is also set to seismically transform multiple industries. By combining with blockchain technology, it is possible to introduce asset uniqueness through non-fungible tokens (NFTs), creating a highly immersive experience for digital collectibles and art. NFTs enable digital items to possess unique identifiable properties and provide indisputable proof of ownership. As AR brings these assets to life, it can provide users with a wide range of immersive experiences such as displaying a digital sculpture in their home, attending a token-gated virtual concert by their favorite artist, or seeing how an item would look on them before purchasing.

The fusion of AR and blockchain is not without its challenges. In addition to requiring technology website significant computing power, the blockchain network supporting these applications must be secure and reliable. In addition, integrating these two technologies raises ethical concerns such as data privacy and virtual asset ownership. However, these hurdles can be overcome with continued innovation and the development of scalable blockchain solutions for immersive technology.

Where Do We Go Now?

A She-ra: Princess of Power 2018 fanfiction

The war is finally over. Prime is dead, the hive mind is broken, and everyone is reunited with their loved ones. However, there are some questions left unanswered. What will be the fate of Catra and Hordak? What are these new memories Wrong Hordak has? What is Etheria's place in the wider universe? Where do we go now?

___________________

Chapter 15 is very short. Have a good day. <3

___________________

Chapter 15: Welcome to Dryl!

Entrapta, Hordak, TD, Imp, Emily, and the Horde trio were the last to exit Darla leaving them standing in front of the Crypto Castle gates that overlooked the base of the mountain. The castle was thankfully also unharmed. Minus the tatters of the old Etherian Horde flags that hung on every conceivable surface.

The gates opened to an empty courtyard, unsurprising, seeing as everyone on Etheria went into hiding after Prime came in and took over.

“Now, I was thinking we could start with a full tour, and then you guys could pick your rooms.”

The group entered and the motion-activated lights illuminated showing the start of the extensive labyrinth of the Crypto Castle.

“Be careful of the traps!”

As the group traversed the endless corridors Entrapta showed them, in great detail, every trap and how to avoid them. Despite their lessons, many, mostly Kyle, got stuck in multiple traps hindering their progress. Other than the occasional near-death experience the tour went smoothly.

Entrapta took them through all five of her labs. The lab was quite impressive, not as large as Hordak’s sanctum but it has as much stuff as the sanctum. They all had bots hanging from the ceiling like windchimes, their eyes following them as they walked through the lab. Half-finished projects littered the dozens of workbenches, covered in cobwebs from their neglect. Brightscreens illuminated when they got close, showing long strings of code and various data charts.

Half an hour ticked by and all important rooms were explored except the library. They entered the room releasing dozens of moths all running into their faces temporarily blinding them. Dust clogged their noses as they walked further in. Cobwebs littered the empty bookshelves. The skylight was blocked by leaves and debris, only allowing in small slivers of light.

“Sorry it’s such a mess, I never come in here so it never gets cleaned. The last time I came in here was to donate most of the books to schools and libraries, and that was ten years ago.”

Upon entering the room every muscle in Hordak’s body tensed up. The dust, the clutter, the cobwebs; it was too much. How could one place be filled with so much dust? Hordak hated any mess of any sort whether it was a disorganized pile of files or an unswept floor, he despised it. He had no idea where this distress originated from; it was one of his “quirks”, as Entrapta calls them. Quirk or not every cell in his body was telling him to clean every dust-filled surface until it all sparkled.

The group thankfully did not stay long, to Hordak’s comfort, and proceeded to a long hall that housed their living quarters till further notice. On the left side of the hall were the rooms of Lonnie, Kyle, and Rogelio. On the right were Entrapta, Hordak, and TD’s rooms. Each room was of equal size, all containing the basic amenities and a personal bathroom and that was it. Thankfully, they had free reign over all decorations and aesthetics of their rooms.

When everyone settled into their respective quarters Entrapta pulled Hordak off to the side.

“I need to speak with you in the main lab.”

“Pertaining what?”
