Developer Updates

COZ installed bronze plaques at several artist’s murals throughout the River North neighborhood in Denver, Colorado. The plaques are part of a physical activation of the non-fungible item technology for the street art festival DENVER WALLS. NFI technology, previously exhibited in OneBand rings, is embedded within the plaques so that users can tap each plaque with their cell phones, collect a check mark, and use an interactive map to find the next mural.

COZ’s role in the DENVER WALLS NFI activation was also covered in articles by nft now and Blockster.

NNT Catch Up

NNT released episode 47 of the Smart Economy Podcast featuring Rich Rines, contributor at Core DAO.
