With the rise of the meme coin market, Yawn introduces itself as the first meme token embedded within a $1 billion ecosystem. As part of the Boys Club, YAWN allows holders to potentially gain from its expanding brand and community-focused initiatives.
YAWN aims to establish a unique position in the cryptocurrency market, leveraging advancements in technology and AI. $YAWN is supported by experienced e-commerce marketing professionals known for their success in scaling online businesses. Their involvement is expected to drive the growth and success of YAWN in both the e-commerce and crypto sectors.
YAWN’s World: Merchandise and an Expansive Product Lineup
One thing that sets YAWN apart from a token like DOGE or PEPE is its merchandise and supplement offerings.
Available on the official Yawn E-shop (https://shop.yawnsworld.com), offerings include Sleep Gummies, Creatine, Hangover Strips, and Calming Capsules. Upcoming merchandise such as shirts, hoodies, hats, and plushies will further solidify the brand’s presence.
The YAWN ecosystem will also benefit from celebrity endorsements and extensive influence campaigns across various platforms. Future developments include a YAWN Sleep App designed to optimize users’ sleep and an AI-integrated wallet featuring a chatbot to assist traders in the crypto space. Additionally, a YAWN Web3 game is under development, integrating $YAWN, NFTs, and other rewards for users.
$YAWN Tokenomics and Security
An important aspect of the YAWN ecosystem is the tokenomics of the crypto. The total supply is 8 billion tokens where there’s a 0% tax, with no transaction fees on trades.
Additionally, 80% of the liquidity is locked for 1 year. That will make sure that there is stability with a $75,000 ETH match for the first year. The project also has a 10% development fund, with a 90-day time lock that is released daily, as well as a 5% marketing fund that is 60-day time locked and also released daily.
Finally, the token has a 5% centralized exchange fund. This will reserve tokens for a future listing on a CEX exchange. Any unused funds will be time-locked thereafter. Those will be used for liquidity, burning, or adding to a staking pool.
Security measures are robust, with the token audited by CoinMarketCap auditor Cyberscope, ensuring focus on security during rapid growth.
The Roadmap
For any crypto, the roadmap is tremendously important. YAWN features a four-phase outline:
Phase 1: The first step will be the $YAWN token launch and a marketing blitz. That will allow for clear brand establishment in the crypto space. An already developed supplement and merchandise brand alongside a notable celebrity and influence ad campaign. The products will also launch on both Amazon and TikTok shops.
Phase 2: Release of a brand-new NFT collection and additional CEX listings
Phase 3: This aspect of the plan will see the launch of GPU/Node services. It will also be the phase where the YAWN AI Sleep App is unveiled. Along with the application, the ecosystem will also introduce its own AI wallet.
Phase 4: This is where Web3 gaming comes in, as YAWN game development goes into overdrive. Additionally, DAO empowerment takes place, positioning the meme coin among the market’s most beloved cryptos.
How to Acquire $YAWN Tokens
$YAWN is available for purchase on the MEXC exchange and the decentralized exchange Uniswap. The contract address for $YAWN is 0x881d4C8618D68872fA404518B2460eA839A02a6a.
Become Part of the YAWN Community

Blockchain-based solution drives significant improvements in data visibility, accuracy and operational efficiency within cargo handling sector, according to research conducted by Aventus at Heathrow Airport
Airlines can benefit from overall cost savings in their cargo handling operations by leveraging Web3-based solutions, according to a study conducted by Aventus & Airport Perishables Handling (APH) at Heathrow Airport.
The existing toolset used for global ULD management has remained unchanged since the 1990s and relies heavily on manual data inputs, resulting in critical challenges with data visibility and accuracy, secure information sharing, and costly ULD losses, damages and delays – costing airlines north of $1.6 billion annually.
Web3, through blockchain technology, offers a robust solution to the challenges of traditional ULD management, by:
- Enabling immutable, tamper-proof records that provide a single source of truth, eliminating disputes and improving regulatory compliance;
- Reducing administrative overhead and minimize errors by automating manual processes via self-executing smart contracts;
- Enabling real-time visibility into ULD location, custodianship and condition, and streamlining data sharing to enable airlines to optimize operations.
In a pilot study conducted at Heathrow Airport, Aventus, an industry-leading provider of end-to-end Web3 solutions for enterprises and parachain on Polkadot, found that its end-to-end blockchain-based cargo handling solution drives improvements in data visibility, accuracy and operational efficiency within the cargo handling sector.
- 90% reduction in communication and error incidents as a result of digitized data capture;
- 83% reduction in manual documentation time;
- 81% reduction in time between ULD stock updates from 3-4 hours to just 30 minutes, enabling real-time decision-making; and
- 28% reduction in loading times as a result of optimized ULD loading workloads.
Alan Vey, Founder at Aventus, comments: “These results are truly remarkable, underscoring the transformative potential of blockchain for not only the aviation industry but for supply chains globally. We are proud to be empowering enterprises to enhance data accuracy, reduce operational inefficiencies, and achieve greater transparency. As we expand our partnerships across North America, Europe, the Middle East and Asia, we anticipate these results to only improve via network effects.”
Michelle Roosevelt, Director at Aviation Perishables Handling, adds: “Aventus’ technology is fast and responsive, which is key in our busy airport environment. We’ve seen huge improvements in productivity. The app is more than a tool – it’s reshaped how we manage and track our aircraft containers, and the Aventus team’s support and expertise in meeting our needs has been outstanding.”
Aventus’ aviation solution brings partnerships with major enterprises to the Polkadot ecosystem, including Aviation Perishables Handling at Heathrow Airport, Vodafone’s Digital Asset Broker, as well as other major airlines across Asia and the Middle East.

Australian gemstone company NYBlue Pty Ltd has emerged as a key player working to redefine the global gemstone market. The company’s strategic venture involves a plan to secure control over the world’s blue zircon supply, a move that holds the potential to reshape the value dynamics of the global gemstone market.
Previously this month, the company released its whitepaper, detailing its current pre-sale and subsequent public float of its ‘real world asset’ cryptocurrency, following its announcement of holdings of more than one million carats of the rare gemstone.
NYBlue’s primary strategy lies in systematically increasing its current holdings, to continue acquiring all available Cambodian blue zircons, establishing control over the supply chain and potentially influencing the future value of these precious stones.
Earlier today company representatives were interviewed on CryptoBanters’ Town Hall podcast, to announce the launch of their RWA token pre-sale which has garnered considerable interest from the crypto community since being announced earlier this year.
A video released by NYBlue questions rhetorically “What would be a more appropriate display of affection, for your significant other; a piece of compressed, common, carbon, or instead something more ancient than Earth, exceedingly rare, and twice as brilliant as diamond?
NYBlue majority shareholder, Mitch Brownlie has stated “We believe that Cambodian blue zircon deserves recognition as one of the most extraordinary, underappreciated and undervalued gemstones on the market”
The Australian company NYBlue; is financed by Australian AgTech founder & former political advisor; Mitch Brownlie, who has recently discussed the project on various podcasts; often comparing the NYBlue project with a previous gemstone rally; when the African gemstone ‘tanzanite’ surged from obscurity, to reach parity with Diamond.
Tanzanite Spot Price – An inspiration for NYBlue.
NYBlue draws inspiration from the historical trajectory of the tanzanite market, where prices experienced a tenfold increase over three years. The company anticipates a similar trajectory for zircons, aligning its strategy with past successes to project a potential surge in value.
NYBlue, has previously announced its plan to launch its gemstone-backed cryptocurrency codenamed ZIRC where each token is fully backed by and redeemable for a 1-carat blue zircon gemstone. This approach allows consumers to benefit from the rise of blue zircon without the risks of volatility associated with traditional cryptocurrencies. Owners of Zirc tokens will have the option to redeem their cryptocurrency for gemstones at any time, ensuring a stable, arbitrage-enforced peg between the two assets.
NYBlue aims to acquire the majority of globally available gem-quality blue zircons, effectively positioning itself as a dominant force in the market. This approach is designed to exert influence over the supply chain, creating a ripple effect on the market value of blue zircons across the industry.
NYBlue’s strategic initiative is not a short-term play; it is an ambitious endgame to secure a controlling stake in the multi-billion-dollar gemstone market. With a collection of gemstones valued at around $300m, NYBlue aspires to redefine the gemstone narrative on a global scale. This venture positions the company as a significant player, with the potential to impact the industry’s landscape for years to come.
In their quest for dominance in the gemstone market, NYBlue has announced a new and highly disruptive initiative; the launch of a blockchain-backed cryptocurrency named ZIRC, with each unit of the blockchain being fully backed by; and redeemable for a 1 carat blue zircon gemstone. This innovative approach allows individuals to participate in the potential rally of blue zircon values, by offering exposure to the underlying commodity without the inherent risks associated with traditional highly volatile cryptocurrencies.
Buyers have the option to redeem their ZIRC tokens for actual gemstones at any time, effectively eliminating the possibility of the token’s value dropping below the market price of the gemstone itself, providing consumers with a tangible and secure asset. This strategic integration of blockchain technology not only enhances transparency and security but also democratises access to the exclusive world of the international gemstone trade.
NYBlue’s PreSale is now live on Zir.co.nz
About Zirc
Zirc offers a cryptocurrency fully backed by blue zircon gemstones. Each ZIRC token is redeemable for a 1-carat blue zircon, providing a stable and tangible asset. The platform aims to integrate blockchain technology to enhance transparency and security, making it accessible for individuals to participate in the gemstone market without the risks associated with traditional cryptocurrencies. Zirc’s approach democratizes access to blue zircons and offers a unique investment opportunity backed by real-world assets.

Sui’s new Mysticeti protocol cuts consensus latency to 390 ms, elevating its industry-leading tech and developer stack to new highs.
Sui, the pioneering Layer 1 blockchain known for industry-leading performance and infinite horizontal scaling, today announced the successful deployment of Mysticeti on Sui Mainnet after a successful run on Testnet. This innovative protocol cuts consensus latency to an astonishing 390 milliseconds, establishing Sui as the fastest consensus layer in the industry.
Developed from extensive research into Byzantine fault tolerance (BFT) consensus mechanisms, Mysticeti represents a significant advancement from Narwhal-Bullshark, the consensus algorithms launched with Sui Mainnet over a year ago. Mysticeti achieves unprecedented transaction speeds, extending Sui’s impressive low latency performance across all transaction types on the network.
Sui’s object-oriented architecture allows the network to process transactions differently based on the characteristics of the transaction and the objects involved. Transactions on Sui involving only “owned objects,” such as peer-to-peer transfers, bypass the need for consensus, following a fast-path execution that completes in a shorter time. Now, with Mysticeti, transactions involving shared objects, such as those in marketplaces or collaborative game assets, are processed using an optimized version of BFT consensus that results in lower latencies nearly akin to those of owned object transactions. Mysticeti minimizes cross-validator communication and fully utilizes network bandwidth to maintain high throughput.
Live on Testnet for the past three months, Mysticeti’s remarkable results – including an 80% reduction in latency – generated significant buzz within Sui’s developer community and a broad desire to see the update pushed to Mainnet. With the update now live, the Sui Network can handle tens of thousands of transactions per second with end-to-end latencies well below one second.
“Mysticeti’s successful deployment is a testament to the collaboration between research and engineering, and the validator community that has integrated this new consensus mechanism,” said Dmitri Perelman, Head of Engineering at Mysten Labs. “Mysticeti is a next-generation consensus protocol that sets a new standard for blockchain transaction speeds and puts Sui at the forefront of our industry.”
Kevin Nelson, Co-Founder & CTO of Aftermath Finance, which created a leading DeFi protocol on the network said, “Mysticeti’s shift to minimizing latency for the general case—shared object transactions—marks a significant advancement across many sectors on Sui, particularly within the Sui DeFi ecosystem. The rollout to Mainnet has already begun to show tangible results, with noticeable latency reductions across our entire product suite. At Aftermath, we are excited to leverage Mysticeti’s full capabilities to deliver more efficient, lower latency products to market.”
Rabeel Jawaid, Co-founder of leading derivatives exchange Bluefin said, “On-chain settlement latency just dropped significantly on Bluefin with the Mysticeti upgrade! P50 consensus latency currently is just under 400ms and E2E client latency when measured via a fullnode is under 1s for P50, which as far as I know is the fastest in Web3 right now – especially at scale with parallelization. With this upgrade, the trading experience on Bluefin has already become more seamless for retail, and our institutional partners have started to scale their flow and liquidity on the platform.”
Bonkman, the pseudonymous Founder of Hop, a DEX aggregator on Sui said, “Hop allows users to interface with Sui DeFi. This makes it dependent on Sui’s consensus mechanism and before Mysticeti swaps took roughly 2-3 seconds. Now, nearly every single swap takes less than 1 second to execute and reach finality. In all of web3, there has never been a better DeFi experience that is present today on Hop via Mysticeti.”

Zircuit, a fully EVM-compatible ZK rollup with AI-enabled sequencer-level security, today announced that Mainnet Phase 1 is now live. Mainnet Phase 1 also includes the launch of the Zircuit Mainnet Festival, a first-of-its-kind program that rewards ZRC and a chance to win large prizes in proportion to gas spent on the Zircuit network.
To reward users who participated in its highly successful staking program with over $2B staked, Zircuit also opened Season 1 Airdrop claims. Users who staked assets in the Season 1 points campaign may now claim their tokens.
During the Mainnet Phase 1 stage, users will be able to bridge funds to Zircuit’s Mainnet and interact with projects in Zircuit’s ecosystem including Ambient Finance, DODO, Circuit, Zerolend, Ethena, Lynx, InstaDapp, LogX, Shoebill, and more. Developers are also welcome to deploy applications on Zircuit mainnet and join the thriving ecosystem of over 60 projects.
As part of the launch, Zircuit is hosting the Zircuit Mainnet Festival which rewards users with ZRC tokens whenever they pay gas fees on Zircuit mainnet. Additionally, participating users will have the chance to win prizes, and a super prize of 100,000 ZRC. This festival encourages users to interact with the network and experience the benefits of Zircuit while earning ZRC tokens and prizes.
Mainnet Phase 1 will introduce a cap on the amount that each wallet can bridge, with caps increasing over time. During this initial phase, users may bridge ETH only, with other assets slated to be added progressively. This allows Zircuit to launch in the most secure way possible and provides a broader distribution of Zircuit rewards to smaller wallets.
During this phase, Zircuit opens the ZRC token claims portal to reward users who were early contributors and participants in the network. Those who earned Zircuit Points in Season 1 of Zircuit Staking will be eligible. While tokens are claimable during this time, they will be non-transferable until a later date. To prepare for the asset migration in Phase 2, where staked assets will transfer from Ethereum mainnet to Zircuit mainnet, Zircuit will start collecting wallet addresses from users who intend to move their staked assets once the network is fully live.
“Launching the first phase of mainnet is a significant milestone for us. Developers and users can now experience the full benefits of Zircuit and our breakthrough technology, sequencer-level security. In addition, the Mainnet Festival is a first-of-its-kind mechanism that most directly rewards early active users. We see Zircuit as the foundation for the next wave of innovation in web3 and we look forward to seeing what decentralized applications will be built on Zircuit next,” stated Martin Derka, co-founder of Zircuit.
Zircuit protects users from hacks through its built-in, automated AI techniques that guard users against smart contract exploits and malicious actors. Bolstered by its strong security infrastructure, Zircuit is the central hub for restaked assets featuring unparalleled security and allowing users to earn industry-leading yields natively. Zircuit is the premier liquidity hub for restaked assets (ETH, BTC, LSTs, and LRTs) where users enjoy stronger security guarantees and trust.
During Mainnet Phase 1, users can explore the Zircuit ecosystem on zircuit.com/#ecosystem and explorer.zircuit.com and bridge ETH to Zircuit Mainnet at bridge.zircuit.com. Zircuit’s Mainnet Phase 2 is set to launch in August.
Users can claim their tokens by visiting claim.zircuit.com and participate in the Zircuit Mainnet Festival by visiting festival.zircuit.com.

Get Good and Get Rewarded in Fortnite, CS2 and Overwatch
Perion Labs introduces the all-new XP.GG, a gaming platform that lets gamers get rewarded by getting good at their favourite games. XP.GG features a Universal Battle Pass integrated across all XP.GG games. XP.GG will launch August 1 with Fortnite. Counter-Strike 2 and Overwatch competitions will begin late August, with more games being added each month.
“XP.GG let’s gamers Get Good and Get Rewarded by playing the games they already love,” said Amos Whitewolf, co-founder of Perion and CTO of XP.GG. “The more levels gamers unlock, the more rewards they get, and the higher the chance they have of winning thousands of dollars of weekly prizes. We can’t wait to introduce gamers to our Universal Battle Pass across all XP.GG games, giving them a shot at real prizes for getting good.”
The new XP.GG and Season 0 of the Battle Pass launches August 1 with Fortnite. Counter-Strike 2 and Overwatch competitions will begin late August. More premier gaming titles are on the way including League of Legends, Valorant, Dota 2, Apex Legends, Mobile legends, Pub G and AAA web3 games like Shrapnel. Perion has partnered with game developers and esports teams like Talon esports and GIANTX to ensure strong game curation.
A Universal Battle Pass That Rewards Gamers
Gamers can take on challenges in their favourite games designed to sharpen their skills and, in return, level up their Universal Battle Pass. Season 0’s prizes include a $6,000 gaming PC setup, a Fortnite-themed Secret Labs gaming chair, a PS5, $1,000 CS2 knife, and more, totaling over $10,000 in value. Prizes will increase in value each Season as more gamers Get Good and Get Rewarded.
“Every victory on XP.GG brings more than just glory; it brings tangible rewards across all the games you already play,” added Amos. “So earning rewards becomes a game itself on top of the challenge of getting good in the games you love.”
XP.GG: Gamer Tested, Gamer Approved
Perion Lab’s team of gamers launched an XP.GG prototype in early 2024 to learn what gamers really wanted out of a gaming platform. Prizes started as small as a few hundred VBucks, then increased to gaming consoles. The overwhelming result after thousands of hours of gameplay: gamers want rewards for getting good in the games they already love to play.
“So that’s exactly what we built,” said Mitch Penman-Allen, co-founder of Perion Labs and Chief Strategy Officer of XP.GG. “Informed by months of testing, we’ve created the first comprehensive reward layer that lets every gamer access real rewards for getting good at the games they already play.”
Season 0 Starts Now
Gamers can visit XP.GG starting August 1 to sign up and begin earning rewards with Season 0 of the XP Battle Pass in Fortnite. Later in August Counter-Strike 2 and Overwatch competitions will begin.
Season 0 includes a special multiplier, where players that reach Level 5 in their Battle Pass will be eligible to receive an attachment for their Battle Pass for following Seasons. Reaching Level 5 in Season 0 grants a 5% multiplier attachment in Season 1, Level 10 grants a 10% multiplier attachment, and so on. Each season attachment will reset and carry over the bonus earned from the previous Season for anyone that signs up and hits level 5 in Season 0.
“A Universal Battle Pass and more opportunities to Get Good and Get Rewarded starts NOW,” added Jan Hartmann, co-founder of Perion and CEO of XP.GG. “And stay tuned for more games and even bigger prizes at XP.GG in the coming months!”
About Perion Labs
Perion Labs’ mission is to make gaming better by incorporating blockchain, empowering gamers and the gaming industry. Our current project is XP.GG, a one-stop gaming platform where all gamers can experience the best of web3 in their favourite games, along with turnkey monetization for developers, esports teams, creators, and stakeholders.

Sharpe AI , an AI-powered crypto super-app for traders, has announced the listing of its token $SAI on Gate.io followed by more exchanges starting at 1 pm UTC, 5th August, 2024. The token will be available in the trading pair USDT, setting the stage for a new chapter in AI-powered crypto trading.
The anticipation is soaring following the blockbuster success of $SAI’s Initial DEX Offering (IDO) this past April. The IDO shattered all previous records, achieving an astounding 300x oversubscription. With over 120,000 participants bringing in $576 million in assets, it became one of the biggest IDO in history—a true milestone moment for the crypto space.
Key Highlights
- Sharpe AI has 25+ live products with over 150,000 users and $500+ million in platform volume
- Received grants from Google, Microsoft, and IBM
- Backed by industry leaders including Animoca Brands, GBV Capital, Morningstar Ventures, Maven Capital, MetaBros, Contango Digital, Ape Terminal, AIT Protocol
- $SAI IDO on Ape Terminal was 300x oversubscribed, making it one of the biggest IDO in history with over 120k participants connecting $576M in assets
- $SAI is listed on Aevo Pre-markets, a spot reserved for only the most anticipated projects in the space, and has smashed every record for daily volumes
- Received CME license (the only crypto company that has received it)
- First Bittensor ecosystem project, using the AIT subnet to mine $TAO
- Ranked #1 on Product Hunt globally for all AI and Crypto categories
- Sharpe is backed by Contango Digital (main investor of Bittensor)
$SAI Token Utility
$SAI is the native utility and governance token underpinning the Sharpe AI ecosystem. The token is carefully designed to align incentives between Sharpe AI, token holders, and the broader ecosystem. It provides economic incentives for participants, funds future development and growth initiatives through a community treasury model, and enables decentralized governance over the platform.
$SAI token holders will enjoy a range of benefits within the Sharpe AI ecosystem:
- Discounts: Staking $SAI unlocks discounts on trading products
- Airdrops: Potential airdrops of project tokens launching through Sharpe Launchpad and Sharpe Perps
- Governance rights: Ability to vote on crucial platform decisions
- Staking rewards: Additional benefits including fee rebates and early access to new features
Sharpe AI aims to create a token that encourages long-term participation through:
- A buyback and burn mechanism to reduce token supply and reward token holders over time
- Long-term incentives through rewards and discounts via staking
- Governance participation for token holders
Part of the profits generated from all products will be used to repurchase $SAI from the open market through a series of repurchasing programs, such as TWAP orders. Tokens bought will be burned, deflating supply over time.
As part of the rollout of staking, the buyback & burn mechanism will split into buybacks that will be allocated towards both burns and staking rewards — allowing stakers to accrue additional platform ownership over time.
$SAI Listing Details
- Date: August 5th, 2024
- Time: 1 PM UTC
- Exchanges: Gate.io, Uniswap.
- Pair: SAI/USDT
The platform is notably the first Web3 project recognized by tech giants Google, Microsoft, IBM and OpenAI. Backed by industry-leading investors Animoca Brands, GBV Capital, MorningStar Ventures, Maven Capital, MetaBros, Contango Digital, Ape Terminal, and AIT Protocol.
