BREATHE! Convention Charts New Territory with World’s Largest Communal NFT

LAS VEGAS, NV, Jun 19, 2023 – (ACN Newswire) – BREATHE! Convention, a leading event in the emerging tech space, proudly announces a groundbreaking endeavor to set a new Guinness World Record with the creation of the World's Largest Communal NFT, during its upcoming convention in Las Vegas from September 13 to 15, 2023.

At the heart of this year's convention is a monumental collaborative art project spearheaded by tech industry veteran and creative thinker, Aaron Vick. Known for his innovative digital art pieces, Aaron Vick will facilitate the creation of an 18-foot by 30-foot art piece that will serve as a symbolic testament to the spirit of Web3 and the community. Convention attendees will contribute to this massive piece, adding their signatures, doodles, or drawings during the event.

"As we merge art, technology, and community to create the world's largest communal NFT, we're tapping into the collective creativity of the Web3 community," said Aaron Vick. "The anticipation to witness the contributions of each attendee to this groundbreaking project gives me FOMO, & I'm going to be there!"

Celebrated New England photographer Lauren McDonagh-Pereira is set to capture the high-resolution images of the completed art piece, which will then undergo rendering as a single art piece for minting on the Tezos Blockchain. This procedure produces a unique and historic NFT, destined for airdrop to the contributing attendees after minting, cementing their involvement in this monumental event.

"BREATHE! Convention is spearheading the creation of the world's largest communal NFT, an embodiment of the future," said Shawn Willis, our CEO and Founder. "This unique venture stands as a testament to the power of Web3 ethos, harnessing the strength of the community."

Notable events recently on the Tezos Blockchain include the artist Refik Anadol's 3D installation displayed at the MOMA in NYC, which provided viewers a commemorative NFT.

BREATHE! Convention continues to build itself as the premier platform for innovators, artists, and leaders in the emerging tech space. This year's convention is committed to showcasing an exciting, historic event that will inspire, educate, and empower attendees.

Lumerin Launches Public Testnet for Decentralized Bitcoin Mining Hashpower Marketplace

CHICAGO, IL, Apr 27, 2023 – (ACN Newswire) – Lumerin, a new Web3 datastream routing protocol, today launched the public testnet for the Lumerin Hashpower Marketplace (https://lumerin.io/marketplace/), a first-of-its-kind decentralized application for the buying and selling of Bitcoin mining capacity. This initial beta demonstrates the early capabilities of the marketplace, which will enable both miners and non-miners alike to participate in Bitcoin mining via smart contracts on the Ethereum network.

Ryan Condron, co-founder of Lumerin

The primary objective of the launch's initial testing phase is to improve the Marketplace and identify potential enhancements in user experience. Marketplace testers, who will have the opportunity to earn bitcoin for their efforts, are encouraged to exercise caution should they participate in this public beta.

Marketplace to Broaden Access to Mining While Helping Professionals Manage Capacity Lumerin Hashpower Marketplace will provide miners with additional flexibility and control over their operations, while unlocking greater liquidity and access to Bitcoin mining capacity across the globe.

Within the marketplace, miners will be able to create contracts to buy hashpower like any other asset, setting the price, speed, and duration of the contract as required. This unlocks much-needed opportunities for efficient capacity planning and risk-management strategies.

At the same time, participants will not need to own mining equipment to participate — they will be able to buy hashpower contracts just like the professional miners.

Details on the Testnet Launch

This will be a phased launch in order to ensure the integrity and security of the marketplace's hashpower contracts.

Particularly at this early stage, testers are strongly encouraged to read the instructions (https://lumerin.gitbook.io/lumerin-hashpower-marketplace/) for the Lumerin Wallet and Hashpower Marketplace. These instructions not only cover Wallet installation but network configuration as well. In the initial phase, users will only be able to purchase hashpower through the marketplace and connect to their mining pool account.

Beta testers who are registered on the Lumerin Explorer Program–you can still sign up using this link (https://lumerin.io/explorer-program)–are now able to access the Marketplace and purchase hashpower using Ethereum Sepolia Testnet LMR tokens (sLMR). We migrated to Sepolia because there are increasing concerns with the stability of the Goerli testnet which is being deprecated later this year. These are obtained for free via the Lumerin "faucet," an automated distribution mechanism that sends the tokens to the users upon request.

During the testnet phase starting today, all marketplace users can exchange Lumerin testnet tokens to purchase real Bitcoin mining hashpower provided by the Lumerin team. Then, they can point that hashpower to a mining pool account, earning Bitcoin just as they would if they were directing their own hardware's hashpower to that pool.

Looking forward to mainnet release, Lumerin will onboard strategic mining partners to provide hashrate contracts on the platform.

"Conversations about the centralization of Bitcoin mining power have too long obscured the need to distribute control of that mining power through market forces," said Ryan Condron, co-founder of Lumerin. "With the testnet launch, the Lumerin Hashpower Marketplace will offer a glimpse into what a future of liquid, globally distributed control of Bitcoin mining could look like."

"Lumerin has had a remarkable journey — from a novel idea for solving the centralization issues in Bitcoin mining to today's real-world testnet deployment," said Matthew Roszak, co-founder and chairman of Lumerin partner Bloq. "Lumerin shifts the discussion of Bitcoin hashpower from one of mere geography to one of control and ownership across borders, further fulfilling the promise of a 24/7/365 future of finance."

About Lumerin

Lumerin is a decentralized Web3 data stream routing protocol that enables users to own, transfer, and exchange data through blockchain networks using smart contracts.
The Lumerin Hashpower Marketplace aims to be the first dApp leveraging this technology to make Bitcoin hashrate a liquid financial asset, allowing for peer-to-peer, decentralized hashrate trading across the globe.

LAS VEGAS, NV, Apr 20, 2023 – (ACN Newswire) – BREATHE! (https://breatheconvention.com) Convention, the premier event for emerging technology and digital transformation, has announced a date and location change for its upcoming convention.

Originally scheduled for May 3-5, 2023, at the Las Vegas Convention Center, the event now takes place from September 13-15, 2023 at The Expo at World Market Center Las Vegas. This change embodies the ongoing commitment of BREATHE! to connect ever-expanding possibilities and provide additional unique and custom sponsorship opportunities and empower attendees and participants to embrace the future of work and humanity.

"We were offered a plethora of unique experiences that were simply not available in May," said Shawn Willis, CEO and Co-Founder of BREATHE! Convention. "Our choice was clear. We either run a good event or an incredible event. With our move to September at the World Market Center, we are supercharging our community relationship building between exhibitors, sponsors, and anticipated attendees. This means scaling up extraordinary education, experience, and entertainment opportunities pre, during, and post-event."

"As a sponsor to BREATHE!, this move in dates and location really gives us more time to prepare," said Emil Ljesnjanin, Founder & CEO of NFT-TiX. "As I've said before, you don't rush to perfection. You cannot rush a convention of this scale, and we know a move like this only means better showcasing experiences, which means better opportunities for businesses and adopters to fully understand and apply this mind-blowing technology into their everyday needs."

With Web3, AI, Blockchain, Crypto, DeFi, Metaverse, NFTs, and VR and AR technology set for showcasing within the state-of-the-art facilities at the World Market Center, attendees can expect a more comprehensive agenda of educators and subject matter experts to fully unravel the digital transformation taking place around the world.

"t quickly became apparent that BREATHE! was a bigger endeavor than any of us could possibly imagine," said Vincent, Founder of Digital Nativ. "With the increasing demand of educators and networking opportunities, it was obvious BREATHE! needed to move venues to fully form its vision into reality. So many Web3 and Blockchain players like HIVE, NFT-TiX, and MetaKeep have already begun collaborating with one another around the globe thanks to BREATHE!"

Unique experiences are set to fully develop with BREATHE!, including the expansive launch of the BREATHE! App, allowing followers of the event to participate in activities and community-driven efforts for exclusive rewards, and the building of live metaverse integration with BREATHE! for the full effects of virtual reality and augmented reality in the BREATHE! experience.

The Expo at World Market Center Las Vegas boasts over 315,000 square feet of space, with modern amenities and technology to ensure a seamless and successful event.
