Climbing Virtually, Cleaning Real-world Mess: Gaming for Everest’s Preservation
Everace’s Bold Claim: Climb Virtual Peaks, Clean Everest. Everace merges virtual mountain climbing with real-world conservation efforts, using blockchain technology to fund Everest cleanup initiatives.
Paris, France, 3rd Jun 2024 – Everest is a dream unfulfilled for many. The tallest mountain in the Himalayas attracts much attention, evoking a range of emotions from summit triumph to deep sadness. Everest holds a place of high esteem within the mountaineering community, and its local Sherpa community is crucial to any climbing expedition.
Even though tourism has boosted the local economy but it also led to overcrowding and significant pollution issues. Nepal, one of the world’s least developed nations, faces rampant corruption that hampers effective policy and administration. Many blame the government and locals, with articles often branding Everest as “the highest dumping yard on Earth.”
One mountaineer, passionate about Everest, recognized waste management as a critical problem and took action. This individual gathered and educated locals on waste segregation and management. As a blockchain enthusiast and Everest lover, He developed an innovative solution: a virtual mountain climbing game focused on Everest. The revenue generated from this game is allocated to cleaning programs on Everest, merging technology and environmental stewardship to address the mountain’s pressing issues.
Online blockchain gaming was projected to grow by 21.8% from 2023 to 2030, blockchain gaming seems to enjoy a healthy growth. In a recent interview, Cryptews CEO shared insights about Everace, highlighting its innovative features and potential impact. “Before climbing Everest, preparation is essential. In the Everace game, the Climbing Temple training center is freely accessible. Players can improve their speed, strength, agility, balance, power, and mental resilience through various training modules. The innovative Dynamic-NFT technology ensures that your climber’s stats and market value increase,” he explained.
Further, he added “ 95% percent of the wagers are redistributed to top players, while the remaining 5% fund regular cleanup campaigns on Everest, focusing on the South Col (8000m, Nepal). This critical area suffers from accumulated gear and waste due to high altitude, oxygen scarcity, and a constant influx of climbers. Everace aims to install infrastructure to support the growing tourism and expeditions around Everest.”
A gaming experience you’ve never felt before is a bold claim. While cleaning Everest is undeniably a noble endeavor, the question remains whether this project’s good intentions can sustain it in the long run. A recent report revealed that 80% of Web3 projects fail for various reasons, so it’s crucial to understand all inherent risks before getting in early. While the concept is promising, some question whether the project can deliver on its ambitious promises. Only time will tell if Everace will emerge as a success or a failure.
The trailer looks amazing, but many are skeptical about whether the team can deliver the product on time. However, for now, the situation seems well-managed. The community is growing, with a decent number of members actively participating in the conservation of Everest. The first round of the presale is set to start on June 3, 2024, at 6 AM UTC. The community appears strong, and many are buying into Everace’s vision.

AI Meets Arabic Literature: Qirtas App Unveils Scalable Publishing Infrastructure at Web Summit Qatar 2026
Doha, Qatar, 19th February 2026, ZEX PR WIRE, Qirtas App, a dual-interface digital platform headquartered in Istanbul and Malmo, announced its mission to bridge the global gap in Arabic literature accessibility following its successful showcase in the Alpha Startup category at Web Summit Qatar. By integrating cutting-edge AI production tools with a seamless streaming interface, Qirtas is providing the technical infrastructure needed to digitize the fragmented $4 billion Arab publishing market.
Despite a global population of 430 million Arabic speakers, the publishing industry has long been hampered by prohibitive shipping costs, high piracy rates, and a lack of digital infrastructure. Qirtas App addresses these systemic barriers through a twofold solution: a freemium streaming platform for readers and a sophisticated digital management backend for publishers.
Empowering Publishers through the “AI Production Suite”
Qirtas is not merely a distributor; it is a catalyst for digital transformation. For traditional publishers, the platform offers a dedicated portal to convert physical catalogs into secure, monetizable digital assets.
AI-Automated Production: The platform utilizes proprietary AI to automatically generate high-quality audiobooks and smart summaries, drastically reducing the time and cost barriers that previously prevented publishers from entering the digital space.
Institutional Security: With advanced Digital Rights Management (DRM) and real-time reader analytics, publishers maintain full control over their intellectual property while gaining unprecedented insights into global consumption patterns.
The Future of the Arab Reading Experience
For the global Arab diaspora, Qirtas offers a comprehensive streaming library featuring Qirtas AI, an interactive reading assistant that provides instant translation, text-to-speech narration, and social integration.
“The Arab publishing world is rich in content but starved of modern distribution,” said Tamer Odeh, CEO of Qirtas App. “With Qirtas, we are removing the friction. We aren’t just giving readers an app; we are giving publishers the tools to survive and thrive in a digital-first economy.”
Alaa Barghouth, COO of Qirtas App, added: “Our participation in Web Summit Qatar has confirmed the massive appetite for this technology. We have already secured commitments from major publishing houses ready to onboard their catalogs. We are now focused on scaling our infrastructure to meet this demand.”
Market Opportunity & Investment
The digital publishing segment in the MENA region is currently valued at $400 million and is experiencing rapid year-over-year growth. Having validated its model with early industry commitments, Qirtas App is currently open for pre-seed investment to accelerate its market launch and expand its AI-driven production capabilities.

The BTCD Foundation has announced the upcoming deployment of its proprietary Layer 1 blockchain infrastructure. This development marks the introduction of a new technical framework designed to support decentralized applications and secure digital transactions. The Foundation has confirmed that the Public Testnet is scheduled to open for user participation on February 15, 2026.
Technical Architecture and Infrastructure
The BTCD platform is engineered as an independent Layer 1 blockchain, distinct from token-based projects that rely on existing third-party networks. The core infrastructure utilizes a hybrid consensus mechanism combining Directed Acyclic Graph (DAG) and Proof of Stake (PoS) protocols.
This architectural design is intended to address common scalability challenges in blockchain technology. The technical specifications indicate a capacity for high-volume throughput, with initial testing targeting transaction speeds of over 10,000 transactions per second (TPS) while maintaining sub-second finality. The system is built to operate autonomously, providing a decentralized foundation for developers and users.
Testnet Deployment and Minting Mechanism
Beginning February 15, 2026, the BTCD Foundation will initiate the Public Testnet phase. This phase allows users to interact with the network’s minting protocol to test system stability and performance.
The minting process follows a programmed algorithmic schedule designed to test the network’s long-term sustainability over a projected 25-year timeline. The protocol includes technical halving events scheduled every 2.5 years to regulate the issuance rate of digital assets on the network.
Transition to Mainnet
The Testnet phase is a precursor to the official Mainnet launch, which is currently scheduled for May 15, 2026. The Foundation has outlined a technical migration plan wherein digital assets minted during the Testnet phase will be recognized on the Mainnet system upon its activation.
Ecosystem Development Roadmap
Following the Mainnet launch, the BTCD Foundation plans to deploy a suite of decentralized applications (dApps) integrated directly into the Layer 1 core. The technical roadmap outlines the phased release of nine specific utilities, including:
- Nexora: A decentralized communication protocol.
- Guardian DEX: A decentralized exchange interface.
-
WealthBook: A social networking platform integrated with blockchain identity verification.
Future updates scheduled for later in 2026 involve the integration of automated trading algorithms and asset management utilities.
