Deipno® Tea and Spice Blends Expands Its Gourmet Pantry Line with Rare Peppers and Mineral-Rich Salts from Greece

Published

on

Clearwater, Florida, 2nd January 2026, ZEX PR WIRE, Deipno® Tea & Spice Blends, the artisanal culinary brand inspired by Greek heritage and sensory storytelling, proudly unveils its latest pantry expansion: a curated line of gourmet peppers and mineral-rich salts sourced directly from Greece. Crafted in small batches and designed for both everyday cooks and flavor connoisseurs, the new collection reflects their commitment to quality, sustainability, and culinary artistry.

This launch brings an unexpected twist to classic seasonings, with fruit- and herb-infused blends that transform simple meals into elevated sensory experiences. Highlights include the Mandarin Tonga Pepper, a citrusy blend that offers mellow heat ideal for grilled seafood and poultry, and Masticha Pepper, infused with rare mastic resin for a subtle piney sweetness perfect with roasted vegetables or lamb. For a more adventurous flavor, the Philoxenia Mint Pepper combines cracked black pepper and mint, adding a refreshing herbal note to dishes like kebabs, tzatziki, or even chocolate desserts.

Equally compelling are Deipno®’s new gourmet salts, hand-blended with Mediterranean herbs, foraged botanicals, and mineral-rich Greek sea salt. Honey & Thyme Salt delivers a sweet-savory balance that enhances roasted meats and compound butters, while Aegean Sea Blue Ouzo Salt, infused with ouzo, fennel, and anise, offers a coastal brightness that pairs as well with grilled fish as it does with white chocolate or citrus treats. For depth and indulgence, Black Porcini & Truffle Salt layers earthy truffle oil and mushrooms for a rich umami finish suited to risottos, seared meats, and roasted vegetables.

At Deipno®, seasoning is not just a step in cooking—it’s a form of storytelling,” says founder Aikaterini Haraktsis. “Each blend honors the land it comes from, the history behind its ingredients, and the hands that bring it to life in the kitchen. We believe that flavor has the power to evoke memory, spark creativity, and nourish more than just the body. We hope that these blends invite people to slow down, savor the process, and turn everyday meals into rituals of meaning and connection.”

The new gourmet salts and peppers are now available exclusively at deipnoblends.com, where customers can enjoy free shipping on orders over $55 and a 25% discount on purchases above $30 using the code Off25Percent.

Deipno® continues to evolve its pantry line with intention, blending traditional Greek flavors with modern culinary sensibilities. Each product is a tribute to heritage, craft, and the simple pleasure of well-seasoned food.

AI Meets Arabic Literature: Qirtas App Unveils Scalable Publishing Infrastructure at Web Summit Qatar 2026

Published

on

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.

About Qirtas App

Qirtas is a Swedish-Turkish “Deep-Tech” publishing platform dedicated to revitalizing Arabic literature.

Press Release

BTCD Foundation Launches Layer 1 Blockchain Infrastructure and Opens Public Testnet

Published

on

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.

About BTCD Foundation

The BTCD Foundation is a technology organization focused on the development of Layer 1 blockchain solutions. It aims to build a scalable, secure, and decentralized infrastructure to support the next generation of digital applications.
