One innovative new Web3 project is seeking to break through new barriers by combining nonfungible tokens (NFTs) with real-world luxury Swiss timepieces, in-person masterminds and a vibrant digital community of visionaries, changemakers, high-net-worth individuals and blockchain enthusiasts.
The project, called Legion, consists of 333 NFTs. The mint happens on Thursday, Sept. 29, and demand was strong for this project during the presale phase. As of writing, over 110 NFTs have been sold by the founders through their personal networks. The price of each Legion NFT is 4.44 Ether (ETH) as of the mint.
“I call it a unicorn offer,” said co-founder Stefan Georgi, “because every time we share Legion with the right people, they want to be a part of it.”
Legion is the brainchild of futurist and exponential entrepreneur Jonathan Foltz, luxury watchmaker Craig Shah, entrepreneur and blockchain adviser Stefan Georgi, and genius brand creator Umer Hadeed. The team seeks to merge the worlds of luxury e-commerce, live events and digital communities in a way that’s never been done before. Further, their goal is to help drive society’s transition from Web2 to Web3 by getting everyday people to see how NFTs can have massive real-world utility.
“The use cases here are insane,” said Shah, founder of Craig Shelly watches in Beverly Hills and a partner in Legion, adding, “With many NFT projects, you’re getting some cool artwork and access to a Discord channel, but that’s it. With Legion, the watch alone is valued at $6,000 minimum. People routinely pay $25,000 to be part of good masterminds. And the community we’ve built around the project is second-to-none.”
How Legion plans to revolutionize the world of in-person masterminds and event
To partner Foltz, it’s the community and network aspect that’s most exciting. “For those who don’t know, masterminds are essentially just ‘get-togethers’ where like-minded people work together to achieve a common goal. In the case of Legion, our mastermind community is filled with leaders in Web3, e-commerce, investing, exponential technologies, real estate and other industries, all collaborating and sharing ideas and opportunities.
Here’s the unique part, though: Because membership is held through the Legion NFT, people can buy or sell a membership to this community at any given time on secondary markets like OpenSea. This hasn’t been done before in the world of in-person masterminds, but it’s going to become the norm.”
The Legion NFT reveal will be happening at a live party for all Legion holders on Oct. 8, 2022, in Las Vegas. For anyone interested in finding out more about the Legion project, including the team and its roadmap for 2023 and beyond, you can go to www.wearelegion.xyz.
“I’ve worked on some incredible projects with companies like Samsung, Coca-Cola, Nokia and Huawei,” said Hadeed, co-founder of Legion, adding, “But I don’t know if anything has ever had me more excited. This project truly has the potential to accelerate the transition from Web2 to Web3. And it’s going to be fascinating to watch.”

A landmark partnership between ITV Studios and Reality+ means fans will soon be able to buy and trade officially licensed nonfungible token (NFT) artwork based on the classic TV show Thunderbirds.
ITV Studios has partnered with Reality+ to create the “Thunderbirds: International Rescue Club,” a premium, utility-focused NFT community experience that represents an exciting reimagining of the classic property’s unique style and vision for the 21st century.
Owners of Thunderbirds: International Rescue Club artworks will be granted access to their own unique avatar for use in The Sandbox metaverse alongside unique competitions, giveaways, free drops and official merchandise, and a generative art drop on Sept. 30.
Sebastien Borget, co-founder and chief operating officer of The Sandbox, said, “We’re pleased to partner up with ITV Studios and Reality+ to launch the legendary Thunderbirds franchise into the metaverse. The Sandbox continues to bring culture and entertainment with Thunderbirds, allowing fans to own, play and become creative as they imagine and bring to life new adventures and stories with their characters of the original series.”
The project will also give holders the opportunity to take part in real-world “Rescue Missions,” in which funds generated via the Thunderbirds: International Rescue Club’s NFT sales will be used to aid charities and good causes around the world.
The Rescue Missions
Thunderbirds: International Rescue Club is an international organization set up to change the world, one rescue mission at a time. A global community of Thunderbirds fans all over the world joining together to support our missions. The project has raised 7,500 British pounds of its fundraising goal, and as part of the launch this week, 20% of all future sales go directly toward helping charities like Dobrich Dog Rescue. The community will help to decide what future missions Thunderbirds: International Rescue Club undertake.
Mission 1 took place at Dobrich Dog Rescue in Bulgaria, a charity that rescues and rehomes stray dogs.
With massive festivals and clubs partners, such as Amnesia Ibiza, World Club Dome, Green Valley, Supersonic, We Are Fstvl, Caprices, Junction 2 and many more to come, The List will be the only one you’ll want your name to be on.
The List is setting a foundation in the form of establishing partnerships with some of the best clubs and festivals and building a community around this first nonfungible token (NFT) collection, on which Klubcoin is going to continue building, indeed many partners of The List are also part of the Klubcoin ecosystem.
The wristbands
7,777 unique NFT wristbands will be minted, each of which will be adorned with a slug coming from the dance music lexicon, with various categories, colors, backgrounds and styles to ensure the rarity of the items of the collection.
“I play vinyl,” “You are not on the list,” “We prefer Z to A,” “Techno,” “Burning man changed my life” or “I hate airports” will be part of many different words and expressions coming from the scene’s terminology. Each wristband carries the rave culture wherever it goes.
The 3D modeling, design and concept execution of the project is done by Broken Egg.
Generative 3D rendering will be used to create the 7,777 NFTs with more than 130 traits and millions of possible renditions, which will be immortalized on the blockchain.
The lucky owners of the two rarest categories will receive a physical bracelet, the in-real-life version of their NFT.
Lifetime access
More than 150 exclusive items of the collection will grant lifetime access to worldwide famous clubs and festivals, such as Amnesia Ibiza (Spain), World Club Dome (Germany), Green Valley (Brazil), Supersonic (India), We Are Fstvl (United Kingdom), Junction 2 Festival (United Kingdom), Caprices Festival (Switzerland), Rampage Open Air (Belgium), Barcelona Beach Festival (Spain) and many more.
This non-exhaustive list of iconic clubs and events is already growing and will be revealed a few days before the drop.
Exclusive shows by The List
Electronic music fans will have two more events to look forward to. The List in collaboration with Clubbing TV is going to organize a show during Art Basel in Miami (December 2022.) and a festival in Croatia (August 2023.). All of The List NFT holders are going to have an exclusive privilege to join these two events and meet their favorite artists.
In the metaverse
In addition to the IRL experiences, owning a wristband from The List will give you a wearable perk in one of the biggest metaverses, Decentraland. The wearable NFTs powered by DJenerates and Decentral Games will be airdropped to more than 5,000 selected owners of the collection, giving access to exclusive events in the metaverse and to the VIP area of the Amnesia and JENR8 virtual clubs.
Whitelisting for the future party in the metaverse to be launched by Clubbing TV will be granted to all The List holders for future land sales.
Other perks
Owning a The List NFT is going to unlock a few other benefits: participation in weekly giveaways, where you could win signed merch from an artist, LP box sets, tickets to hyped events and exclusive access to new releases.

Today we are happy to announce the launch of Sociogram. The first social network with a focus on decentralization and security.
Sociogram respects the basic human right of freedom of speech. With the help of decentralized protocols, it allows you to return this right that traditional social networks have stripped you of.
We also stand for:
- Freedom of choice and freedom of sharing.
- The right of users to own their content and dispose of it, including selling or buying directly from other users if needed.
- Self-regulation of content, which means that users can act as moderators and decide the fate of any questionable content.
What it is
With Sociogram, you can communicate, create, share your content and search for users with similar interests. It is a perfect match for those who want to produce and distribute their visual or text content freely and be able to express any opinion without restrictive algorithms or shadow bans.
Sociogram does not own user-generated content, which removes the possibility of editing, deleting or banning user-generated content, as the platform has no right to do so.
Sociogram is based on Web3 principles, and freedom of speech and uses blockchain technology to store the content in the ERC1155 token standard, which allows users to own the content they’ve created, unlike mainstream social networks. In traditional social networks, users transfer content ownership rights to the platform after publication.
Why we built it
We believe that online privacy is of key importance now, and everyone has the right to keep their data secret. With Sociogram, you don’t have to worry about data leaks.
Like everyone else, we are fed up with targeted ads. Actually, we see it as personal boundary violations. We aim to protect your personal data from marketers, advertisers and scammers while encouraging open communication.
No ads, no content curation, no personal data collecting, no data resale.
With Sociogram, it is impossible to collect data for subsequent use for any kind of manipulation, like the one we’ve seen with the Facebook–Cambridge Analytica data scandal.
We stand against the imposition of any content and blatant mind control. There are no hidden algorithms, no censorship or any kind of content manipulation on Sociogram. Any content imposition or shadow bans are nonexistent. Sociogram shows the content of your subscriptions in chronological order without any curation algorithms.
Why it’s secure
Sociogram is built with an emphasis on decentralization and gradually applies decentralized blockchain protocols without affecting the user experience.
Sociogram is a more secure social network compared to mainstream ones, as it is based on blockchain technology and doesn’t store any personal data. What Sociogram stores are usernames and public account addresses. Your profile assets are also safe, as Sociogram doesn’t have any access to them.
The only authorization method is via Web3. It lets you log in quickly and easily, without disclosing personal information sensitive to a data breach, like your email or phone number. You are not forced to use your real name either — you can choose any username you want.
As Sociogram is based on the principles of freedom of speech and privacy, we stick to the General Data Protection Regulation requirements so we neither use your data for targeted ads nor disclose it to third parties. You can learn more about Sociogram security here.
Messenger
To ensure maximum security, chats in messenger are always protected by end-to-end encryption. This means that only you and your contact can read them. Encryption and decryption keys are individual for each user, which increases the level of communication security.
We are creating a new reality where personal data is always personal.
There are three levels of security that you can choose from in security settings:
- Light
- Medium (set as default)
- Advanced.
We’re holding a Web3 meme contest now with a $15,000+ prize. The results will be on October 14. More info on our website.

On Aug. 25, 2022, the WhiteBIT cryptocurrency exchange debuted its native token. Four weeks after being added, WhiteBIT Token is moving on to the next world-leading crypto platform. On Sept. 22, at 11 am (UTC), the WBT/USDT trading pair also became available on Huobi.
WhiteBIT Token became famous before its launch due to a list of bonuses and privileges it provides. The crypto community is still showing great interest in owning WBT. Users bought the first million tokens just 15 minutes after launch.
WhiteBIT Token provides exclusive opportunities to its holders:
- Reduced maker and taker fees
- Free Anti-Money Laundering checks
- Free withdrawals of ERC-20 tokens
- Up to 50% referral rates.
The token’s creators also announced that more WBT use cases are coming as the exchange plans to integrate the asset into the state economy sector later.
WBT is also known for its price, as it became worth $7.08 after the first week of trading, with an initial price of $1.9. WhiteBIT aims to support the overall interest through weekly burnings. It bought and destroyed over 4 million tokens for $22,609,198. WhiteBIT will use the combustion mechanism until it has destroyed 50% of the total supply of 400 million tokens.
A strong marketing campaign also backs WBT. The first trading competition and an airdrop were an instant success, attracting more and more attention to the young, promising asset. It is clear that WBT has a well-balanced strategy, and new achievements await it shortly.

Sushi completes deployment to the Kava blockchain with a liquidity pool eligible for KAVA and SUSHI token rewards.
Earlier this year, Kava shook up the L1 industry with its Ethereum Co-Chain launch, sparking the fastest growth of protocols on any blockchain in 2022. Today, tier-1 DeFi protocol Sushi combines its deployment to Kava with an up to $7M matching rewards plan alongside their elegantly redesigned Sushi 2.0 user interface.
Providing liquidity to Sushi’s wKAVA/USDC pool deployed to the Kava EVM will be eligible for KAVA and SUSHI token rewards. Sushi’s deployment also enables users to create new pools with other asset pairs, especially after the Kava 11 upgrade and the Ethereum bridge later this year. These actions position Sushi as the primary decentralized exchange (DEX) on the Kava EVM.
“Kava is a 100% growth-oriented blockchain fueled by the Kava Rise incentives program. Sushi has believed in this program from the start and was an early pioneer. Today, I’m excited to announce that Sushi also chose Kava to premier a one-of-a-kind DeFi user experience. Kava aims to onboard and engage more protocols than all the other L1 networks. Kava will reach that goal with visionary partners like Sushi.” – Scott Stuart, CEO of Kava Labs.
“We are grateful to be a part of what we consider an exciting new blockchain infrastructure. We are humbled to be included as one of the first DEXes on the Kava chain. We believe Kava’s focus on growth and connecting with all kinds of projects to help them grow through the Kava Rise program is the best approach. Unveiling our new UI at the moment of this deployment is a testament to the importance of combining our forces.” – The Sushi team.
Sushi and Kava’s partnership milestone is made possible by Kava Rise, a $750M rewards program designed to push 10x growth on the Kava blockchain. Being a part of Kava Rise means all Sushi pools on Kava will accumulate programmatic, on-chain rewards for the Sushi protocol.
Alongside its deployment to Kava and introduction to the Kava Rise program, Sushi implements a new UI designed to improve the user experience, improving the user experience for Sushi’s most-used apps — Trident, Furo, and BentoBox. All of these dApps will be accessible from the Kava EVM and eligible for accumulating Kava Rise incentives for the Sushi protocol.
Sushi is an Ethereum-based decentralized protocol that delivers a robust suite of DeFi applications. The Sushi ecosystem currently holds over $1.5B in Total Liquidity with more than 150K Sushi token holders and 15.68K asset trading pairs. Users can interact with Sushi on 20+ wallets and 15 supported blockchains.
About Kava
Kava is a secure, lightning-fast Layer-1 blockchain that combines the developer power of Ethereum with the speed and interoperability of Cosmos in a single, scalable network.

New York City, United States, 27th September, 2022, Chainwire
Space and Time, a Web3-native data platform that empowers the trustless automation of business logic through patent-pending Proof of SQL cryptography, has secured $20 million in strategic funding from marquee investors led by Microsoft’s M12 fund.
Other investors participating in the funding round include Framework Ventures, HashKey, Foresight Ventures, SevenX Ventures, Polygon, Blizzard the Avalanche Fund, Stratos, Hash Capital, Coin DCX and several Web3 leading communities and angel investors. Space and Time previously raised $10 million in a seed funding round led by crypto investment firm Framework Ventures.
“We are excited to announce the strategic support of M12 and Microsoft, and extend our partnership with Chainlink,” said Nate Holiday, co-founder and CEO of Space and Time. “We are committed to automating the business logic of the world by directly connecting smart contracts to Space and Time’s data warehouse in order to enable new and advanced use cases in Web3. Space and Time sits at the intersection of on-chain and off-chain data computation and we are thrilled to work with world-class data partners to build the next generation data ecosystem for both decentralized applications and enterprises at scale throughout the world.”
Space and Time joins on-chain and off-chain data in a trustless environment that powers low-latency transactions and enterprise-scale analytics. The protocol’s decentralized data warehousing capabilities allow the creation, joining and querying of immutable and mutable tables with cryptographic guarantees all within Space and Time’s next generation data platform.
Funds will be used to accelerate engineering and product development. Over 90% of funding will be dedicated to the product and customer adoption of Space and Time.
Providing familiar enterprise tools which process data volumes much larger than the current on-chain capacity are required to unlock new use cases for Web3. Space and Time is on a mission to make smart contracts more robust by connecting them with enterprise database capabilities using its novel cryptography.
Space and Time will allow the business logic in centralized systems to be automated and connected directly to smart contracts. As a platform and tools company, Microsoft is committed to supporting its partners and customers with their technology needs, including Web3 scenarios and use cases.
Space and Time will integrate with Microsoft Azure to provide Azure customers with an on-ramp to access, manage and perform analytics on blockchain-native data. The comprehensive Microsoft Azure cloud platform and industry-leading identity and security capabilities provide a trusted set of services to develop and run Web3 applications in this new era of ubiquitous computing.
“We look forward to seeing the ways in which Space and Time will allow the business logic in centralized systems to be automated and connected directly to smart contracts,” said Michelle Gonzalez, Corporate Vice President and Global Head of M12. “As blockchain technology finds applications in a wide range of industries, Space and Time is building the foundation to shape this work in a Web3 environment. M12 looks forward to partnering in that journey.”
As part of the Startup with Chainlink program, Space and Time will be working closely with Chainlink to extend the capabilities of hybrid smart contracts to power the trustless web. The platform will allow blockchain developers to build multichain dApps and rapidly generate analytical insights in a decentralized, low-cost and secure way.
“We’re proud to support Space and Time through the Startup with Chainlink program in their mission to build a decentralized data warehouse and bridge the on-chain and off-chain worlds with Chainlink oracles. With the total addressable market for trust-minimized applications in the trillions of dollars, providing core infrastructure to Web3 developers is crucial for scaling and meeting this global demand,” stated Sergey Nazarov, co-founder of Chainlink.
About Space and Time
Space and Time, www.spaceandtime.io, is the first Web3-native decentralized data warehouse that connects on-chain and off-chain data to deliver broad, enterprise-grade use cases to smart contract applications. Developed as part of Chainlink Labs’ Startup with Chainlink initiative, the platform gives users and developers the ability to connect analytics directly to smart contracts through novel Proof of SQL cryptography, opening up a whole new set of use cases and business logic for smart contracts.
