Bitget, the world's largest Universal Exchange (UEX), partnered with the Indian Institute of Technology Delhi (IIT Delhi) to host a blockchain seminar and workshop under its Blockchain4Youth programme. The campus session brought together more than 280 students for a workshop focused on blockchain fundamentals, decentralized systems, and emerging opportunities in Web3.
 

Bitget Brings Blockchain4Youth to IIT Delhi as Demand for Web3 Education Surges
 

Held on March 27, the event drew participants from leading institutions including the Indian Institute of Information Technology Delhi (IIIT Delhi), Netaji Subhas University of Technology (NSUT), University of Delhi (DU) and other institutions across the capital. More than 650 registrations were recorded for approximately 300 seats, highlighting strong demand for structured blockchain education among Indian students.
 

Blockchain4Youth is Bitget’s global initiative dedicated to expanding blockchain literacy through campus engagements, workshops, and long-term support for young builders entering the digital asset ecosystem. India remains one of the most active regions for technical talent and early-stage blockchain participation, making university engagement an important part of long-term ecosystem development.
 

“India continues to stand out for the depth of technical talent entering blockchain,” said Gracy Chen, CEO of Bitget. “What stood out at IIT Delhi was the curiosity students approached the discussions with. Blockchain4Youth is designed to create early access to knowledge and help young builders understand where decentralized technologies are moving beyond theory into practical infrastructure.”
 

Speakers at the event underlined the long-term importance of sustained ecosystem investment in Indian talent. Vinayak Kalra, founder of KaiFoundry, noted that the level of curiosity and ambition among students reflected how quickly India’s next generation of blockchain talent is emerging, adding that initiatives of this kind are important if leading Web3 organizations want to invest meaningfully in the country’s talent pool. The event also drew strong attention from ecosystem contributors present at the session. Sahil Thakur, founder of BlockseBlock, pointed to the turnout as evidence that blockchain interest on campuses is increasingly driven by long-term curiosity rather than short-term market cycles.
 

Bitget’s Blockchain4Youth programme continues to expand through partnerships with universities and educational communities worldwide, with a focus on expanding blockchain access and supporting the next generation of developers and entrepreneurs.

63 moons technologies limited with a track record of pioneering next-generation disruptive technologies, unveiled its path-breaking innovative technology initiatives in the domains of Cybersecurity, LegalTech, and Web 3.0 and Blockchain.

These emerging technology domains having a market potential of trillions of dollars, are set to create a paradigm shift in their respective areas, and revamp public lives as we know them today. These domains will define the fabric of the future and 63 moons technologies limited is geared to weave its magic with the following tech initiatives: 63 SATS (Cybersecurity), QiLegal (LegalTech), and 3.0 Verse (Web 3.0 and Blockchain).

63 SATS

Cybersecurity is crucial to safeguard an estimated annual risk of USD 10.5 trillion by 2025. Given the scale and viciousness of cyberattacks, cybersecurity is no longer a good-to-have, but a must-have for both corporate entities and individuals. In this regard, 63 SATS is a robust defence mechanism against modern-day cyberattacks.

63 SATS is a dedicated Strategic Business Unit for everything related to cybersecurity. It is a state-of-the-art and avant-garde cybersecurity technologies end-to-end products and solutions provider whose services include, but are not limited to, Red Team Assessment, External Threat Exposure, and Technical Surveillance Counter Measures.

3.0 Verse

As the real-world and financial assets witnessed tremendous growth to reach USD 1,600 trillion between 2000 and 2021, the potential for tokenisation of these assets is humongous by 2030. Soon, the digital economy will surpass the physical economy and therein lies the opportunity. For instance, Blockchain is established, but how enterprises leverage it will play a huge role in establishing their presence. And 3.0 Verse is a key player in this arena.

The 3.0 Verse platform seamlessly combines the role of DeFi and CeFi multi-platform aggregator driven with AI-ML, a 24x7 global 3.0 TV, 3.0 Wire, and the world’s first 3.0 University with a community of 3 million users.

QiLegal

The size of the global LegalTech market is estimated to cross USD 100 billion in a decade. To cater to this market 63 moons technologies has introduced QiLegal, which is a robust cloud-based platform for practice management, combined with various integrated tools for a complete legal ecosystem.

QiLegal is envisioned to digitise the legal framework with modern-day technology for everyone connected with the judicial network. It will overhaul and empower the justice system and help it function at lightning speed with solutions such as Virtual Courts, Online Dispute Resolution (ODR), AI-enabled Drafting, and much more.

Speaking on the development, Mr. S Rajendran, Managing Director and Chief Executive Officer of 63 moons technologies limited said, “63 moons technologies is known for transformational thinking and crafting innovative functional frameworks for exploring new possibilities. Similarly, our new initiatives are also designed to be key growth drivers for the country and the global economy.”

63 moons, along with its planned nationwide network of designated agencies (franchisees), aims to enable the tech ecosystem and scale the summit of the digital asset universe with these three technology initiatives.

RealX & Algorand team
 

The world of investing, often seen as the gateway to prosperity, has historically been an expensive and complex affair, discouraging ordinary individuals from participating. The lack of technical knowledge has compelled many to rely on others to invest, further entrenching wealth concentration among the elite.
 

This has been more profound in the case of property investing. Property investing has always been a high value, high involvement investment with a lot of friction and inefficiencies. While all other assets are available digitally and come with the ability to invest in smaller more affordable amounts today, property is one asset that is yet to see this transformation.
 

Manish Kumar, Co-founder and CEO of RealX says, “Lack of access to good opportunities can be attributed to be a big contributor in the wealth gap that we see increasing every year. The only solution to this is to bring legitimate products that so far were inaccessible to most of us and make it accessible to everyone digitally and in affordable amounts. This is the core of what we want to do at RealX and we wanted to do it in a way that falls within the extant legal ambit as well as leverage best of technology for the benefit of our customers.”
 

In recent times a positive change has been brewing - the wealth landscape has undergone a remarkable transformation. Technology, particularly the rise of Web3 and blockchain, has played a central role in reshaping our societal wealth systems. Barriers have been shattered, and the flow of money is being democratized, making financial products and services more accessible to all.
 

During this revolutionary shift, Real World Digital Assets (RWA) have emerged as a game-changer. These assets leverage blockchain technology to create digitally generated certificates of real-world assets, enabling fractional ownership and investment.

The Challenge

However, there remained a legal gap between the ownership of the Real-World Asset and the Digital Token holders. There was lack of legal linkage between the two and this has been the biggest challenge in the product evolution preventing it from reaching its full potential. In case of immovable properties or Real Estate, the laws and processes involved make this challenge more formidable. 
 

A significant milestone

RealX has been working on solving this challenge and to so in a way the advantages of blockchain can be leveraged. It has taken the company more than a year of effort to develop the full solution, deploy it and complete a commercial transaction on the model, especially with external investors putting the full model to test. 
 

This is a significant global milestone in Real World Digital Assets space. Real World Digital Assets (RWA) are considered the most acceptable frontier for development of Blockchain as it converges the traditional assets and traditional finance with the advantages of Blockchain. 


Dushayant, an investor who invested in the first transaction, says, “In a business known for hassle and deception, RealX with their Ease of Doing Business married with technology has come up with a whole new investment class. The investment process is completely paperless and quick at the same time the due diligence by RealX saves a lot of time and effort for the investors. Wishing RealX and their investors well in their future endeavours."
 

Core Solution

RealX had already introduced an industry leading innovative solution called Registered Co-Ownership (RCO) as its first product wherein it offered a registered property deed with single registrant (as Principal Custodian) on behalf of all co-owners investing in the property.
 

The current product is an extension of the earlier one but with the advantages of blockchain, smaller investment sizes and easy transferability and greater customer control. It now offers blockchain based Property Tokens (NFTs) that will provide the token holders direct and proportional beneficial ownership of the property. The Property Tokens will mean a proportionate direct ‘Right to Registered Co-Ownership’ (RRO).
 

Saya Neera Inamdar, Co-founder and COO of RealX, “Our product is pretty simple to understand has been developed in line with similar products in the market, so that our customers can understand it easily and it can maintain its legal sanctity as well. Most of us understand Futures and Options (F&O) products in commodity (and equity) markets. In the commodity markets, there is an Option to delivery of a commodity; At RealX the Token holder holds a similar Option note to become a Registered Co-Owner. While depositories are registry for regular F&O, at RealX we have deployed public Distributed Ledger Technology as a registry.” 
 

Converging the world of Blockchain with traditional finance and a difficult asset class like properties and various laws impacting them is a global first feat achieved by RealX.
 

Manish says, “We have been working very hard and for a long time to achieve this feat. The encouragement came last year when the central government notified that transfer of NFTs that are linked to a tangible asset will not come under Crypto Tax. Plus, they and the regulators have time and again clarified that they are in favour of good and legitimate uses of Blockchain. We knew it was time to get this product out. There is a lot of Intellectual property that we have developed in building this solution.”
 

The co-ownership construct of RealX, making token holders direct beneficial owners of a property, is very different from all other fractional ownership platforms operating globally and uses base property laws available to create a compliant model to existing laws even as the solution remains one of the most innovative in its domain.
 

Pavan Adipuram, a startup founder himself and an investor in the property transaction says, “Democratisation of real estate is the need of the hour in a growing economy like ours. Making retail investors part of this age-old asset class in a new way with all checks and balances in place is key. And Blockchain helps us to do exactly that. I'm happy that we are moving one step at a time in that direction. This is a new beginning and I wish the team at RealX the best to scale this in the right direction. Looking forward.”
 

There have been others who have tried to achieve fractional ownership of properties by issuing tokens. However, at the base they are still using the SPV method, and the tokens represent the securities. These constructs will always be constrained by regulatory and company law requirements and be restricted. RealX construct breaks all these barriers and gives direct beneficial ownership rights to the people investing to buy the tokens.
 

Win-Win Proposition

RealX is also the only player to operate a strict marketplace model and not pursue deals where they act as agents of sellers by taking mandates from them. 
 

The customers can browse through a wide variety of properties. They can choose which one they want to invest in and how much. The properties curated by RealX will vary in terms of their rental yields, end-sale capital gains expected. Customers can create a very interesting and personalized portfolio of assets as they keep investing comprising of different property types, property stages and tenancy.
 

We are seeing very good traction within the developer and the channel partner community. RealX commercials are light and it acts as an enabler for everyone. This leaves enormous room for everyone to structure their offering and outreach. The Developers are free not just to onboard their properties, but also to set their own pricing and promotion strategy. For the channel partners, this has opened up a new revenue stream. 
 

Devang Sheth, Co-founder and CBO of RealX says, “It is said that 90% of all millionaires made money through Real Estate. However, quality Real Estate was expensive and therefore non-participative for most common people. We are happy to make it affordable and accessible to everyone. This is a win-win situation for customers, developers, and other intermediaries involved in the process. Also, most other players create an SPV to hold the asset and issue securities of the SPV, some even tokenizing the SPV securities. This is a very compromised solution from investor protection side. We have stayed clear of such approach, and this gives a lot of comfort to even our real estate community.”
 

Asset Managers, the super-broking entities accredited by RealX, are associated with each property. These Asset Managers are the real face of the property for all practical matters and day to day supervision plus negotiating tenancy issues.

Algorand DLT

RealX evaluated a range of leading Blockchain platforms before deciding on its deployment. The challenge was that most Blockchain platforms were built for cryptocurrency applications and their native structures had inherent challenges making most of them unfit to deploy non speculative real-world assets. Algorand is a next generation Blockchain technology and was better suited for such applications. Also we received very good developer support from their side, supporting our unique requirements.
 

Mohita Gupta, India Project Lead, Algorand Foundation says, “At AlgoBharat, Algorand Foundation's India initiative, we are excited to drive Algorand's innovation and adoption in the blockchain space within the dynamic landscape of India as we strongly believe that India has the best devs and the most innovative builders and founders looking to solve complex real-world challenges. Through our relentless commitment, we aim to empower such developers, enterprises, and the community to harness the potential of Algorand for creating real-world solutions just as RealX is doing through its platform which is built on Algorand. RealX's approach to fractional ownership and property tokenization showcases a remarkable leap in the realm of real-world asset digitization. Their platform democratizes access to high-value properties with direct ownership rights which is a testament to their commitment to reshaping the future of investment and ownership. We're dedicated to fostering collaboration and driving meaningful impact in Bharat as we pave the way towards a decentralized and inclusive future.”

Way Forward

RealX will open for public access in a few weeks’ time. However, starting today, we are open to engage with Developers and other property sellers to onboard their properties. We will also be onboarding channel partners and new Asset Managers for some time. Meanwhile, customers can join the waitlist and may be given early access in batches before we open for public.

The roundtable brought together key stakeholders from National Intellectual Property Awareness Mission (NIPAM), Atal Incubation Center (ATAL- AIC), Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Entrepreneurship (IEEE entrepreneurship).

She spoke on implementation and cost of blockchain innovation and went on to say that; “Blockchain is helping us to build a better world. It is here to stay and there is no other technology like it. While many have understood the features of blockchain but not the technology behind it. There will be a gap in (understanding) of every innovation adoption in first few years. However, as far as technology is concerned, blockchain is one of the most powerful innovations of recent times and also the most misunderstood” Dr. Seshadrinathan added.

Stating the importance of blockchain Mr. Ashish Chauhan said “One thing is very sure, young people will learn technology faster and will enlighten us. We need a ‘patra’ for knowledge, a person who has that credibility and authority of the subject, who can communicate and shape discussions on it with authorities” In his concluding statement Mr. Chauhan states, “We need to focus on blockchain technology, AI, 5G and all kinds of technology, their advantages and disadvantages. It is important that we have forums where all aspects of these technologies are discussed and then brought to light to the policy makers. Blockchain as a technology is here to stay and such discussions are very much necessary for the betterment of our country”.

Miam Patisserie Unleashes a Sugar Rush with their Digital Collectibles Launching in OneRare Foodverse

Miam was started in 2015 from home after Chef Bani identified a noticeable gap in a heavily saturated market. She saw that French pastry was not popular and she wanted to change that.

RISE started issuing these certificates through blockchain technology in March in order to counter any fraudulent discrepancies pertaining to job applicants faking certificates of upskilling and education. As per a recent annual trend report by Authbridge, nearly 28% of job applicants submitted fake degrees in 2020.

Commenting on the collaboration, Gaurv Bhatia, CEO at RISE stated, “In today’s day and age where security inks, 3D images, and even holographic stickers can easily be faked or forged, no other method is completely fake-proof. Any human interactive or people-based processes are prone to errors and are never 100% secure. The only true trust mechanism is to check authenticity using a decentralised entity, which is exactly what blockchain technology offers. We aim to enable the recruiters to authenticate skilling certificates as each and every certificate that is issued via our blockchain-based platform is secure, authenticated, and fake-proof. RISE is taking multiple such initiatives to bring the latest in technology for the betterment of the education ecosystem.”

So far, it has issued the blockchain-based digital certificates to the first batches of the two following courses Business Analytics and Data Science. The company is working with various universities across India to bring this technology to the educational certificates of students.

The blockchain technology is provided by an India-based startup named “Print2Block”.

Blockchain-based certificates are fake-proof and have increased authenticity as they verify data using a decentralised mechanism. Each certificate is also equipped with a unique QR code, when scanned, opens up a unique URL. The URL is backed by data which also enables the recruiter to verify the authenticity of the certificate in real-time through the blockchain server.

Learners can directly share the verified blockchain certificates on their LinkedIn profiles and other social media channels. RISE currently offers PG Programs in Business Analytics, Data Science, AIML, Cybersecurity, FinTech, Finance & Accounting, and Marketing Research.

Ramesh Jhajharia founded Tradexa in 2019 with a clear objective: to assist brands, retailers, and distributors in selling both online and offline with minimal investment and hassle through a cutting-edge technology platform. The company's vision is aligned with the Digital India initiative.

Jhajharia's extensive experience in developing highly scalable technologies, as well as his participation on the technical steering committee of blockchain technology Hyperledger, led him to consider using blockchain to create a network of distributors, retailers and brands. However, he soon discovered that the industry required technology support that could enable people to sell both online and offline and that blockchain was not yet necessary. With this in mind, he founded Tradexa in May 2019 and began collaborating with India's largest distribution networks.

"Today we have the capability to digitalize any retailer across different industries in just one hour and enable brands scale 3-5 times in just 3 months. Traditional retailers and distributors struggle to understand eCommerce and its requirements. We offer a solution that lets them sell their products online and offline without all the technical hassle. They can start in an hour with our latest technology for just Rs 5,000. We innovate and experiment. Our partners need only to sell," says Jhajharia.

In addition to providing a platform for brands, Tradexa also allows retailers to sell directly through their marketplace with minimal or nominal margins. Tradexa fulfills all orders received on their marketplace through their retail partners. At a cost of only Rs. 20,000 per month, Tradexa offers a range of services that includes store management, digital marketing, digital advertising, product information management, social media management, SEO, graphic design, and customer engagement. It claims to be entering a new industry every 2 months and has the capability to digitalize up to 5000 retailers every 3 months.

The period between March and May 2020 was Tradexa's most difficult time because of the uncertainty brought about by the first wave of COVID-19 and the nationwide lockdown. "COVID-19 had a significant effect on the economy and caused the shutdown of some sectors but it also contributed to the growth of e-commerce and the popularity of digital transactions. It also gave another perspective to the retailer, brands and distributors on the importance of digitization. COVID accelerated digitization and it benefitted companies like ours," Jhajharia says.

"These challenging times have reaffirmed the validity of our vision and strategy. At Tradexa, we see ourselves as a dynamic learning organization, committed to providing our employees with valuable experiences that surpass those offered by other companies. We are proud to say that after just two years with us, our employees will have gained significant expertise and knowledge," the Founder says.

Tradexa currently manages the entire eCommerce operations for numerous billion-dollar international brands. They also operate two industry-specific marketplaces, boasting an impressive 90% onboard rate for participating brands. At present, the company generates an annual revenue of Rs. 10 crore. However, they aim to leverage their marketplaces, platform, and additional services to increase their revenue to Rs. 800 crore over the next five years.

Tradexa relies on three types of IT systems to enhance the eCommerce experience for consumers: transaction processing systems, decision support systems, and decision automation systems. In terms of operations, Tradexa provides a range of services such as product information management, inventory management, accounting, webstore management, payment processing, and shipping and logistics management. Additionally, they offer marketing solutions that include dynamic webstores, auto SEO, AI-powered customer query response system, Facebook catalog, Google shopping and advertising system, as well as transaction and promotional communication through email, SMS, and WhatsApp. To support decision-making, Tradexa employs an AI-based recommendation system that analyzes key aspects of a brand such as products, inventory, pricing, marketing budget, sales, buyers and promotions to suggest the best course of action for scaling the brand. Furthermore, Tradexa has established influencer networks throughout India to assist brands seeking to expand and thrive.

"At Tradexa, we take pleasure in empowering first-time entrepreneurs who wish to establish their own eCommerce brand but may be daunted by the intricacies of eCommerce operations. We are excited to announce that we are launching a program for new brands, where we will provide our platform for free and offer support to help them grow. The only prerequisite is that they must possess a successful product and some funding," Jhajharia says.

Tradexa's approach focuses on the digitization and creation of a global network that encompasses various brands, distributors, and retailers. Their current focus is on developing industry-specific networks of brands, retailers and distributors, while also creating industry-specific marketplaces tailored to the needs of end customers. "This approach allows us to offer a personalized experience for customers in various industries," Jhajharia signs off.

Indian, born and raised, serial entrepreneurs, Navdeep Sharma and Nick Bahl, now based in Australia, are the co-founders of this breakthrough app. The entire ReelStar ecosystem is powered and enabled by the blockchain utility token, ReelToken (REELT).

HackerEarth, a global HR tech company providing leading solutions to sources, assess, upskill and engage software developer talent, today released its annual State of Developer Ecosystem report. The report has leveraged comparative insights by polling recruiters, engineering managers, and developers to form a comprehensive, in-depth account of where tech recruiting stands today.

HackerEarth's recent survey brings together insights from developers and the tech recruiting fraternity to help better hiring amidst the downturn

According to recent data published by The World Economic Forum, over 42% of all jobs are expected to undergo significant changes, highlighting the increasing importance of skills such as analytics, critical thinking, and advanced problem-solving. HackerEarth's State of Developer Ecosystem report also reveals the rising desire among developers to sharpen their Blockchain and Data Science competencies, their growing demand to be assessed fairly for their skills via developer-friendly dedicated tech hiring platforms, and the need for more equity in the workplace.

HackerEarth’s report shows that in 2023, tech talent expects transparent communication, honest workplace reviews, better performance improvement plans. They also expect their organizations to create value and affect real-life change through their tech, or CSR initiatives, and this is reflected in their approach towards DEI initiatives.

Additionally, developers want biases against self-taught developers to be eliminated, highlighting the emergence of a skill-first approach to employment. HackerEarth’s State of Developer Ecosystem report also highlights that 87.9% of self-taught developers have faced biases when applying for jobs.

“Tech is one of those sectors that lives in a dual reality. We are at the forefront of all innovation, and yet we are also the ones hit hardest by the current global headwinds. Our aim with this survey was to bring together the two sides of the tech recruiting coin, and build a comprehensive snapshot of what ails tech hiring and what can be improved. I believe by examining both the developer perspective and the recruiting perspective side-by-side, we can build resilient, talented and inclusive tech teams that can weather any storms that may lie ahead,” said Sachin Gupta, CEO of HackerEarth.

Key findings from the 2023 State of Developer Recruitment Report include:

Hiring is mostly frozen, except for a slight thaw among certain sectors

- 40% of the recruiters are unsure of the market conditions and didn’t know when they would start hiring again.

- Only 20% of the recruiters said they planned to hire upwards of 100 developers in the coming days.

The tech community and their needs

- Developers indicate that the use of tech hiring tools, ongoing skills development, and clear understanding of the technology stack are essential components for improving the hiring process.

- Upskilling in demand with 17.74% of developers aiming to sharpen their skills in Blockchain, and 17.66% choosing Data Science.

Developers feel that organizations have made efforts to facilitate better alignment

- Three years after COVID, about 86% of organizations and 78.7% of developers feel that the tech hiring process has improved for the better.

- Organizations have re-aligned their hiring flow to enhance candidate experience through the use of knowledge-sharing as an engagement tool. Social media and employer branding also features heavily in their plans to attract Gen Z talent.

- It is also clear that developers favor the use of automated tools for hiring with 44.61% of them saying they would appreciate being assessed via dedicated tech hiring platforms.

Collaboration between recruiters and hiring managers has always been a source of friction, and newer challenges are thrown up as behaviors and expectations change

- FullStack developer roles remain challenging to fill due the high demand in similar tech fields such as blockchain, machine learning, and data science.

- Recruiters also believe that remote work has reduced accountability across teams and caused siloing of functions; however, this may slowly see a change with the newer generation preferring to either work in a hybrid mode or in a fully offline mode.

Looking ahead to 2023…

- The hiring freeze offers the perfect opportunity to overhaul tech recruiting funnels, and fix flaws.

- Automated assessments with benchmarked results can help highlight candidates’ coding skills. 

- Job stability and rewarding job experience with open channels of communication and inclusive initiatives to take precedence.

The ISO and GDPR compliance audit was conducted by BQC Assessment Pvt. Ltd. - an independent audit & assessment firm, and the SOC2 Type II audit was conducted by Accorp Partners, affirming Zeeve’s dedication towards customer safety, data protection and security.

Zeeve’s mission is to accelerate the adoption of enterprise blockchain. That means bringing radical simplicity to an ever-evolving technology that’s complex at its core.

"At Zeeve, our primary goal has been to create a secure platform that institutions can depend on with the utmost confidence. Achieving compliance with globally-recognized ISO, SOC 2 Type II, and GDPR standards is a testament to our unwavering commitment to providing and maintaining top-notch security practices and data privacy, compliant with even the most heavily regulated industries such as finance. These achievements demonstrate our dedication towards customer safety, data protection, and security. Zeeve will continue to prioritize and maintain the highest level of security, operational compliance and best practices for our clients,” said Dr Ravi Chamria, Co-founder & CEO of Zeeve.

ISO/IEC 27001:2013 is an internationally recognized and auditable security standard set for the evaluation of any organization’s ability to protect sensitive and confidential data. The standard specifies the requirements for establishing, implementing, maintaining, and continually improving Information Security Management System (ISMS). 

SOC 2 is an auditing procedure developed by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants (AICPA) that ensures service-based organizations manage data securely to protect the interests of businesses and the privacy of its clients. It proves the security level of systems against static principles and criteria.

The General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) is the toughest privacy and security law standard in the world. The GDPR sets strict standards for the collection, use, and protection of personal data for individuals within the European Union (EU) and European Economic Area (EEA). Even though it was drafted and passed by the EU, it imposes obligations on organizations anywhere in the world.

As such, achieving compliance with these three internationally recognized security standards (ISO/IEC 27001:2013, SOC 2, and GDPR) shows Zeeve's continuing effort towards customer safety, data protection, and security. Most of the businesses and enterprises today have their own vendor risk management controls that are most fittingly met when they collaborate with service providers possessing widely-recognized certifications and auditor attestations. As Zeeve now passes through this array of security examinations, the most security-conscious customers can rely on their commitment to security and compliance.

“This is an important milestone for Zeeve, giving our clients even more certainty that the Zeeve, Blockchain Infrastructure-as-a-Service platform is architected and run in a highly secure and reliable manner, based on rigorous, industry-accepted standards. With the ever-evolving threat landscape, we will continue to ensure appropriate controls are put in place to mitigate any kinds of security threats, vulnerabilities or data misuse, so our customers can confidently deploy and manage their infrastructure with our enterprise-grade solutions,” said Ghan Vashishtha, Co-founder & CTO, Zeeve

The blockchain infrastructure space is undergoing dramatic changes as businesses seeking compliant, secure solutions are becoming increasingly discerning. This shift has presented a great opportunity for companies like Zeeve that have already taken the necessary steps to meet current regulations and frameworks. As more strictly regulated players join this market, the demand for no-code blockchain infrastructure platforms will only strengthen, making Zeeve well positioned to take advantage and become a leader in this competitive space.

Ajay Shetty - Founder-Director - Salud

Salud’s strategic plan of diversifying into various segments such as alcobev, non-alcobev products, music, clothing, NFTs, and premium gin has disrupted the market in terms of capturing and reaching every consumer household.  The brand was launched during the COVID-19 pandemic, when most businesses were reducing staff, thinking lean, or shutting down, with India’s first Gin & Tonic RTD. The success of the company in the following years should impact how individuals assess risk during periods of economic downturn, especially with a sound plan in place. Salud's journey began by breaking into the alcoholic beverage space, aiming to not only create a convenient, tasty, and health-centric drink but also change the way individuals celebrate life. The vision eventually expanded to include the multiple verticals we see within the brand today, such as Salud’s non-alcoholic bitters, merchandise, music, and the NFTs. Throughout its growth, Salud has retained its core vision: helping individuals come together and celebrate life globally.

Salud has consistently aimed to be at the forefront of trends, allowing it to have the first-mover advantage in many of its ventures. As the first Indian brand to introduce an alcoholic bottled RTD, Salud cemented itself as a disruptor within the Indian beverage market from day one. Their initial release of G&T 2.0 simplified the drinking experience by offering a low-alcohol alternative to the options on the market at the time. The impact Salud had on the RTD space is evident in hindsight, as numerous local and international companies have been seen entering the space with their versions of the drink. Consumer attitude and behaviour towards alcohol are shifting, and younger generations are prioritizing convenience and health more than ever before. Salud has capitalized on this shift and provided consumers with an incredible product to perfectly match their desires. As a disruptor, Salud has changed the game, going beyond competitive prices and swanky retail showrooms. Salud’s strategies are based on a deep understanding of what the consumer of tomorrow is going to look like and what the product needs to evolve into.

Developing on its theme of firsts, Salud soon became the first Indian RTD brand to win multiple awards on the global stage, winning for its impeccable beverages in the highly respected International Wine and Spirit Competition (IWSC) in London and the extremely competitive China Wine and Spirits Awards (CWSA) in Hong Kong. Leading the RTD space within India, Salud has not only disrupted the market through its meteoric rise but also through its expansion into other international markets.

Salud continued to innovate and function as a disruptor by being the first company within its segment to venture into the Web 3.0 space with a defined roadmap. Through their foray into the Metaverse, Salud has been able to penetrate an untapped market and grow the Salud family across the globe. Through collaboration with Asia's highest-selling NFT artists, they have created beautiful NFT artwork that perfectly portrays the brand's essence. Although a significant part of the NFT programme focuses on unlocking a massive consumer base, the crux of the programme is to provide each individual that buys an NFT with value that extends far beyond the breathtaking artwork. Within Salud's roadmap, they have included multiple perks that NFT owners will soon be able to get, such as early access to Salud Sessions music and limited edition merchandise. Eventually, select NFT owners will be given 5% of all merchandise sales. Entering the Web 3.0 space demonstrates Salud’s commitment to continually innovate. The Metaverse is predicted to grow in significance and ubiquity over the coming decade, and being involved in the digital market this early is sure to give Salud a significant advantage. As more brands understand the significance of the Metaverse, they will inevitably follow Salud’s initiative and have to invest in their artists, audience growth, and roadmap within the digital landscape, something that Salud has already begun.

A brand as unique and disruptive as Salud must have an equally unique and disruptive founder, and Ajay Shetty is exactly that. Ajay spent the first seven years of his professional career in New York and Hong Kong as an investment banker for Merrill Lynch and Morgan Stanley. After success in the financial world, he took a bold step and left his job to start Myra Vineyards, a Wine production business in India, which was eventually acquired by the second largest wine producer in the country. Soon after, Ajay founded Salud and began an entirely new journey in an (almost) completely new domain. Ajay's bold and innovative nature is reflected in Salud's story and will continue to play a critical role in the company's success as they continue to disrupt multiple market segments.

About Salud

By launching the brand in a couple of Indian states and in process to be available pan-India, followed by an endorsement for an Inter-Continental distribution deal for various International markets such as the Middle East and the UK, Salud is changing the way the world parties.

Highlighting growth and change is an essence to its vision, Salud makes an entry into the NFT space where a full fledged roadmap for the Web3.0 has been mapped to finally make its mark in the Metaverse.

Wortheum Ad Network

Now is the time of web3 and the future is of decentralized advertising. - Ashutosh Singh, CEO, Wortheum.

Wortheum Ad Network Platform is the unique revenue model for the wortheum platform users while creating a P2P economy model for Worth coins.

Lucknow/Delhi, 24, November. The Wortheum Ad Network which is the first of its kind in web3 is now officially launched.

Ashutosh Singh, CEO, Wortheum, said on the occasion that Wortheum Ad Network will become the architect of the global revolution in the world of advertising through Web3 and with the help of blockchain technology.

Now is the time of web3 and the future is of decentralized advertising.

He further explained that when we talk about Web2, there is a strange maze of advertisements in web 2, not only for those who are watching advertisements but also for those who buy and promote advertisements.

It is known that the whole ecosystem of advertising is based on some big internet companies, which keep a large part of the benefits of both the advertiser and the user of the ad.

Small companies in the field of advertising are also no exception to this because they are also centralized, this simply means that majority of your advertisement revenue goes directly in their pockets and this sometimes creates an odd situation in the media and marketing strategy.

Not only monopoly, but web2 users also face the problem that many times social media platforms also sell user data to ad companies, which interferes with their privacy and marketers use their personal information.

After the advent of Web3, this entire eco system of advertising is changing completely.

The solution to changing advertising culture is now available in web3's decentralized advertising network.

This ad network is based on Delegated Proof of Stake blockchain based news platform and also powered by its news network. Its biggest advantage is that the advertiser will not have to worry about their ad being limited or removed from the platform without any reason because all the advertising-based activities are done on this platform. Only the administration of the ad network will approve and monitor the ads without taking any identity of advertiser, which simply means that the quality of the advertisement will decide that they are good enough for viewership of mass users or not.

The users of this decentralized advertising network which is based on blockchain technology also have an advantage that blockchain technology does not store the personal data of its users.

Not only this but there are no fake accounts or Bot accounts in this decentralized news network and the advertiser has an advantage that whoever sees his ad is actually a human and not a computer bot.

Vishal Verma, CTO of Wortheum Given some technical details about Wortheum ad network, said that this network works in such a way that the Wortheum Blockchain will issue its coins to its users which is journalists or news readers, and to place ads on wortheum news platform or news network, the advertising user will need to buy coins from the exchange or users who are earning these coins for spending their time for creating or curating news from all around world. Coinstore exchange is the suitable place for buying the wortheum coin for placing the ads in wortheum ad network as most of users sell their coins directly to exchange.

Advertisers pay the wortheum ad network by purchasing coins bought in the market and thus indirectly distribute profits to all active network participants.

This will be a better experience for all the journalists and users of Wortheum.

Advertisement directly affects the price of the coin as the ad network received Wortheum coin (WTH) as payment to the Wortheum ad network will be burnt from time to time, which will reduce the supply and increase the demand of the coins.

Dr. Sindhu Bhaskar, Advisor of Wortheum, Chairman, EST Global Inc and CIC, MIT, Cambridge, USA on occasion of launch of Wortheum Ad Network said that Wortheum is the Web3 based Journalism platform where news pieces are created by us and then curated by readers with the consensus model of the blockchain. Result is the genuine and true news for all, and the contributor is rewarded with Wortheum coins.

He further stated that now Wortheum has come up with the Wortheum Ad Network Platform. This the unique revenue model for the Wortheum blockchain and its users while creating a P2P economy model for Wortheum coins. Ads are going to be published against Wortheum coins. Either Wortheum coins are purchased from the exchange, or the holders of Wortheum coins who canvas ads from clients can sell their own Coin to facilitate publication of the ad. This is the real decentralized model with utmost trust level.
