NFT

NFTs are unique digital identifiers recorded on a blockchain that certify ownership and authenticity of a specific asset. Moving past the "PFP" craze, 2026 NFTs emphasize utility, representing everything from IP rights and digital fashion to RWA titles and event ticketing. This tag explores the technical standards of digital ownership, the growth of NFT marketplaces, and the integration of non-fungible tech into the broader Creator Economy and enterprise solutions.

Stripe-backed Tempo blockchain inches toward launch with public testnet

Stripe-backed Tempo blockchain inches toward launch with public testnet

Tempo, a highly-anticipated layer 1 blockchain, took a major step toward launch on Tuesday with the release of its public test network. “What began as a vision for a payments-first blockchain is now a functioning network being tested by many of the world’s leading companies,” the company said in a news release. Backed by Stripe and crypto venture capital firm Paradigm, Tempo made waves when it was first unveiled in September. That is, in part, because Stripe’s position as one of the world’s preeminent payment processors guarantees that Tempo will enjoy vast distribution upon its launch sometime in 2026. With a valuation of $106 billion, Stripe was the largest privately-held fintech company as of September, according to FinTech Magazine. In 2024, it processed $1.4 trillion in payment volume, “equivalent to around 1.3% of global GDP,” according to the company. It customers included half of the Fortune 100, including NVIDIA, PepsiCo, and Comcast.And Tempo has lured several well-respected crypto researchers, executives, and software engineers, such as former Ethereum Foundation researcher Dankrad Feist, former Optimism Labs CEO Liam Horne, and Rice University Professor Mallesh Pai. “We ourselves were disappointed with crypto’s payments utility for much of the past decade,” Stripe CEO Patrick Collison wrote on Hacker News earlier this year. He changed his mind, however, after seeing how businesses found real-world utility in stablecoins. “None of these businesses are using crypto because it’s crypto or for any speculative benefit,” Collison said. “They’re performing real-world financial activity.” Tempo aims to offer low-fee payment transactions — its goal is a tenth of a cent per transaction — without the congestion that can snarl general-purpose blockchains. “Payments have guaranteed blockspace reserved at the protocol level,” Tempo said on Tuesday. “They don’t compete with other traffic like NFT mints, liquidations, or high-frequency contract calls.” The permissionless blockchain will also feature a built-in decentralised exchange optimised for stablecoins and tokenised deposits. The Tempo client is open-source, allowing anyone to run a node, according to the company. Though the test network began with four company-run validators, Tempo will expand its validator set to include its design partners before eventually moving to a permissionless model. On Tuesday, Tempo said it had added UBS, Mastercard, and Kalshi, among others, as new “design partners.” Initial design partners included Anthropic, Deutsche Bank, DoorDash, OpenAI, Revolut, Shopify, Standard Chartered, and Visa.Aleks Gilbert is DL News’ New York based DeFi correspondent.

Trump meme coin project launches mobile game with $1M in $TRUMP rewards

The post Trump meme coin project launches mobile game with $1M in $TRUMP rewards appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Key Takeaways The Trump meme coin project has launched a mobile and web game offering $1 million in $TRUMP rewards. The game is powered by Open Loot, enabling real-world trading of in-game NFTs and collectibles without requiring a crypto wallet. The TRUMP meme coin project announced today the launch of a mobile and web-based game called Trump Billionaires Club, offering players a chance to win $1 million in $TRUMP tokens. The game is built in partnership with Open Loot, a marketplace for digital game collectibles that supports real-world trading of in-game assets. The new release brings a play-to-earn element to the Trump-themed meme coin ecosystem. Players can use $TRUMP Coin to buy, sell, and trade limited-edition NFT statues and pins, which also serve as in-game items.

According to the game’s website, no special wallet is required to participate, and players can pre-register to compete for a share of the $1 million in $TRUMP token rewards. The launch comes after a Fortune report earlier this year revealed that a Trump-branded crypto game inspired by Monopoly was in development. Sources told Fortune that Trump’s longtime associate Bill Zanker—who previously helped launch Trump’s NFT collections and the official meme coin—was leading the effort.

NFTs Crashed Hard In November – Will the Market Die In 2026?

NFTs Crashed Hard In November – Will the Market Die In 2026?

The post NFTs Crashed Hard In November – Will the Market Die In 2026? appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Last month marked the weakest period for NFT sales in 2025, with the market cap shedding hundreds of millions of dollars. The latest figures reinforce the ongoing decline in demand for these assets, which once surged to record highs before entering a prolonged reversal after the 2022 crypto winter. Sponsored Sponsored NFT Sales Sink to New Lows November’s slump was steep. Total non-fungible token (NFT) sales fell to $320 million, nearly halving from October’s $629 million, according to CryptoSlam. That places monthly activity back near September’s $312 million, erasing what little momentum the sector had regained earlier in the fall.  According to CoinMarketCap, the weakness has already carried into December, where the first seven days generated just $62 million in sales, marking the slowest weekly performance of the year. NFTs are soo downbad right now. Market cap dropped from $6.6B to $3.5B and volume is down about 65 percent. OpenSea’s most hyped token even got pushed to Q1 2026. Most holders aren’t down because of price. They’re down because nobody is buying.

CoinGecko data shows the market cap of NFT marketplaces has fallen to $253 million, its lowest level on record, as prices continue to decline across even the most established collections. This downturn is not an isolated event but the continuation of a broader, years-long contraction that has reshaped the NFT landscape since its explosive rise in the early 2020s. Sponsored Sponsored From Hype Cycle to Hard Reset NFTs first entered mainstream awareness in 2020, when early art sales and experimental drops attracted niche communities.

The Invisible Line Item: Why Pollution Is Missing From Every Balance Sheet

For centuries, pollution has been the missing line item. First from ignorance. Then from choice. Now from necessity—we must account for it. This isn't about blame. It's about balance.
