UniArt’s impossible art formula gallery bring bottom-up NFT appreciation with vote mining on 30th Sep

Published

on

Preamble

Recently, “Loot” has been spreading virally throughout the crypto community. Industry key opinion leaders (KOLs), founders of quality projects, and investment institutions all pay close attention to the emerging “bottom-up” concept, and more community members are excited about it.

Despite the term bottom-up only recently coming into the limelight, in essence, the philosophy may be at the root of the entire crypto economy. Bitcoin, for example, breaks the rules of centralized government-issued fiat currency by enabling anyone that follows its PoW consensus algorithm to produce a new currency. On the other hand, Ether allows developers to build arbitrary dApps on top of it without permission, and its prosperity hinges on the frequency of this.

These two patriarchs of the crypto economy have opened up a bottom-up path outside the centralized internet. The bottom here can be anyone. The top is no longer governments or corporations but now code, algorithms, data, and consensus mechanisms. Loot is the first bottom-up non-fungible token (NFT), possessing similar intrinsic characteristics at the root of its explosion.

The most widespread application of NFT is currently in the art sector. Crypto community practitioners are working to bring NFT into the traditional art marketplace. To accomplish this, NFT must have general acceptance and market consensus, not just within a niche group of artists and appreciators. Take the most common financial application of collateralized lending, for example; a starving artist, globally unknown pledges his minted NFT to you, the potential lender. They claim it is worth US$10,000 and want to borrow against this collateralized value. Naturally, you are hesitant, unsure of its market value, and even if a current buyer is willing to purchase it at that price, you are still uncertain about its future value. In short, there is not enough market consensus for that NFT. However, let’s use CryptoPunk or BAYC as collateral in this example. Results would be the opposite because each of these digital assets already has widespread market consensus, having been classified as antiques in the NFT community. Therefore, the fair market valuation of NFT is critical to achieving market consensus in the financial sector. Exploring a suitable value solution for NFT is beneficial in a financial application, which opens up various other possibilities for NFT, leading to the further development of the whole crypto community.

UniArts aims to uncover NFT fair market valuation through its customized bottom-up Nominated Proof-of-Stake (NPoS) economic model, aspiring decentralized incubation of creators and their works. In this paper, the core concept of UniArts will be comprehensively explained using this bottom-up concept as the source idea.

Bottom-up NFT Fair Market Valuation

The term bottom-up can be understood differently in different contexts; building on top of a foundation is not a required characteristic. In the context of UniArts, bottom (in a non-pejorative sense) can be understood as what people define together and top as the fair value of NFT. This bottom-up approach is contrasted with more traditional top-down valuation, which was determined mainly by centralized auction houses or prominent collectors. Less renowned artists rarely gained any attention, and in the rare chance they did, their work would often be considered nearly worthless. Such an approach does nothing to showcase potentially exceptional pieces for the mere reason they are unknown, and they remain misunderstood by the public.

In the UniArts network, $UART holders are deemed “nominators,” pledging their tokens as “votes” for an NFT they admire. The more votes an NFT receives, the more people approve of it, and the higher the consensus level. When people are required to invest in their decisions, they become much more selective. Since there is value in $UART, the votes that an NFT receives indicate its fair market value. In the early stages of UniArts’ development, the small user base may not be sufficient to tie the word fair to an NFTs value, but as the network expands, it will become more and more convincing. This process can be referred to as the “flywheel effect.”

Appreciate to Earn

“Appreciate To Earn” is a new concept and a subset of “Play To Earn,” in that merely appreciating an NFT is akin to the process of playing. Axie Infinity, a chain game that has been popular in the crypto community for a while now, relied on this “Play To Earn” concept as the fuel to expand its user base. From this vetted example, we know that it is a viable business model.

UniArt’s Nominators pledge $UART and select an NFT they appreciate to earn more $UART, including a base pledge bonus and a block bonus for top-ranked NFTs. In this process, the word appreciate corresponds to the nominator, and the word earn corresponds to the earned $UART. In Axie Infinity, players buy a pet “Axie” as an entry ticket to the game and earn revenue in-game from this Axie. In UniArts, $UART is the entry ticket into the network.

Play to Earn can be viewed as a modern concept to attract new users. Traditional game companies pay third-party advertising companies to attract new users, but these users do not receive any income. Blockchain games use tokens to incentivize new users, which is a disguised way of attracting traffic; an alternative form of advertising, where the fees paid to advertising companies are instead attributed to the user. If this alternative form of advertising is integrated into a chain game’s economic model, one can only expect explosive organic user growth. Similarly, the Appreciate to Earn concept will cause natural growth of UniArt’s user base, eventually to the point where fair valuation is achieved.  

Multi-Chain NFT Gallery “Impossible Art Formula”

UniArts is native to Polkadot, and one of its strategic plans is to spread the NFT gallery to more popular blockchains, the first stop being Polygon. Mechanically, the gallery will be similar to the NPoS economic model but not identical.

  • Six NFTs will be presented in each issuance, and users can pledge $UART or $WETH to vote on their favorite NFT.
  • There are a total of 3 revenue pools, including a casting pool, a general pool, and a bonus pool. The bonus pool added to the gallery is unique in comparison to the NPoS model mentioned above. The casting pool is a pool in which $UART is minted into an NFT based on the percentage of votes received by the NFT. The general pool allocates rewards based on the proportion of user votes to the total number of votes in the corresponding NFT.
  • At the end of each voting period, NFT owners have the option to participate in the next three-day auction. The bonus pool is allocated to the corresponding NFT according to the ratio of the price sold in the auction to the sum of all prices traded in the auction for that period. This pool is then allocated to users that voted in the general pool, as mentioned in (2).
  • Specific details can be found in the following chart:

UARTs tokens are capped at 200 million, with 10% held by the team and released after 3 years, 12% by early stage investors, 10% by the treasury, and the rest by NFT vote mining, “Appreciate To Earn”.

“Impossible Art Formula” demonstrates the lack of a perfect solution in art valuation as everyone has their unique preferences. Let’s solve this by using $UART to appoint the “Hamlet” we fancy.

Concluding Remarks

UniArts has customized the NPoS economic model for NFT with an Appreciate To Earn mechanism based on the bottom-up source concept, which helps NFT discover its fair value. This value discovery fills an essential gap in applying NFT to traditional art and financial systems, paving a new path in crypto circles.

The impossible art formula is accessible now and will be online on 30th Sep.

Gerard McMann Expands Canadian Investor Education Programme with Market Insights and Retirement Planning

Published

on

Montreal, Canada, July 8th, 2026, FinanceWire

The Montreal-based trading platform is broadening its commitment to Canadian investors with a suite of new educational tools, updated market analysis resources, and enhanced retirement account guidance designed to serve both first-time and experienced traders across the country.

Gerard McMann, the AI-powered financial trading and investment platform operating out of Montreal, Quebec, has announced a significant expansion of its investor education and market resources programme for the Canadian market. The initiative reflects a growing demand from the firm’s Canadian client base for structured, accessible learning tools that complement the platform’s existing trading infrastructure.

The expansion adds dedicated sections to the Gerard McMann broker Canada offering, covering retirement account planning, compound interest modelling, cryptocurrency fundamentals, and multi-asset portfolio construction. Each resource has been developed with both newer investors and seasoned traders in mind, recognising that the Canadian market spans a wide range of experience levels and financial goals.

“Canadian investors deserve the same depth of resources and platform capability that institutional clients take for granted. That is the standard we are building toward.” Press Release responsable, Laura Hughes commented.

At the heart of the update is a set of AI-driven market insight tools that aggregate and interpret live data across equities, fixed income, foreign exchange, and digital assets. Rather than delivering raw data feeds, the tools are designed to surface context: why a market is moving, what historical patterns are relevant, and what variables are worth tracking for a given asset class. For Canadian investors navigating cross-border exposure between TSX-listed securities and US-listed instruments, the contextual layer adds a dimension that standard brokerage platforms do not typically provide.

Retirement Planning at the Centre of the Canadian Expansion

One of the most substantial additions to the Gerard McMann Canada offering is an expanded retirement accounts section, covering individual retirement accounts with tax-deductible contribution structures. The section includes a rebuilt compound calculator that allows users to model different contribution scenarios over time, incorporating variable return assumptions and adjustable contribution frequencies.

Retirement planning has historically been underserved by online trading platforms, which tend to focus on active traders rather than on the longer-horizon investor building toward a specific financial outcome. Gerard McMann’s decision to expand this area reflects feedback gathered from its Canadian user base, where demand for structured retirement guidance has grown alongside broader awareness of the limitations of state pension provision.

Gerard McMann Canada reviews collected from active users over the past twelve months have repeatedly highlighted the retirement account tools as a differentiating factor. Clients note that the combination of a capable trading platform with meaningful long-term planning resources is not something they had found elsewhere before making the switch.

“The most consistent piece of feedback we receive from Canadian clients is that they wanted a platform that took their long-term goals as seriously as their short-term trades.” Laura states.

Platform Infrastructure Supporting the Expansion

The educational resources sit on top of a trading infrastructure that supports more than 90 order types, spanning limit and market orders through to complex algorithmic strategies. Real-time trade confirmations, margin calculations, and portfolio assessment tools are available across web, mobile, and desktop environments, giving Canadian investors access to institutional-grade execution regardless of how or where they choose to trade.

Client securities accounts at Gerard McMann are protected. These protections apply in the event of broker-dealer failure and are independent of market conditions.

The platform’s existing infrastructure already supports clients across multiple asset classes, including equities, options, futures, foreign currencies, fixed income securities, and cryptocurrency. The July 2026 expansion does not alter the underlying trading engine but adds a resource layer that the company believes will improve outcomes for Canadian investors who arrive at the platform with clear goals but limited prior experience.

Platform Updates for Canadian Clients

For prospective clients evaluating Gerard McMann as a broker Canada option, the updated platform offers a starting point through the Gerard McMann Basics section, which has been revised to include Canadian-specific regulatory context and tax considerations. Platform tutorials have been updated to reflect the current interface, and a new series of investment concept guides covers topics including asset allocation, currency risk for cross-border portfolios, and the mechanics of dividend reinvestment.

Client onboarding follows a structured process: account registration, identity verification, account funding, and access to the full platform, including research tools and educational content. The company’s Canadian support line operates alongside its international contacts and is staffed by advisers familiar with the specific questions Canadian investors typically bring to a first consultation.

The expansion is live as of July 2026 and available to all new and existing Gerard McMann clients with Canadian accounts.

Yellow Stone Finance Group Launches Performance-Focused CFD Trading Platform for Forex, Metals and Global Indices

Published

on

London, UK, July 8th, 2026, FinanceWire

Yellow Stone Finance Group Ltd. has rolled out a trading platform built around three things retail and active traders consistently ask for: tighter spreads, faster execution, and access to a wider spread of markets from a single account.

The platform, available now at yellowstone-financial.com, gives traders exposure to more than 10,000 instruments across forex, shares, metals, indices, commodities and crypto CFDs all routed through the same account, the same margin pool and the same pricing engine.

For a company operating in the forex and CFD space, where execution speed and pricing transparency are often the deciding factor between brokers, Yellow Stone is leaning into both. The firm’s matching engine targets average execution speeds of around 40 milliseconds, with raw ECN pricing pulled from a pool of more than 25 tier-1 liquidity providers the kind of infrastructure more commonly associated with institutional desks than retail-facing brokers.

“Most traders don’t switch brokers because of one big problem they switch because of a dozen small frictions that add up: a slow fill here, a wider-than-expected spread there, a platform that doesn’t quite keep pace with how they actually trade,” a Yellow Stone spokesperson said. “We built this platform around removing those frictions rather than adding more bells and whistles on top of them.” Karsten Ziegler, Press Release Responsable states.

That focus shows up in how client funds are handled as well. Yellow Stone holds all client deposits in segregated accounts with tier-1 UK and EU banks, kept entirely separate from the company’s own operating funds. Retail clients also benefit from negative balance protection, meaning that even in fast-moving conditions a weekend gap or a sudden re-pricing an account cannot lose more than the equity it holds. The company also publishes quarterly best-execution reports covering average spreads, fill rates and slippage, a level of disclosure that isn’t standard practice across the industry.

Traders can access the markets through Yellow Stone’s browser-based WebTrader, native iOS and Android apps, or via REST and FIX 4.4 API connectivity for those running systematic or algorithmic strategies. Spreads on major forex pairs start from 0.0 pips, and accounts can typically be opened and funded in under five minutes, with deposit options spanning major cards, PayPal, Stripe, Wise and Bitcoin.

Whether someone is trading currency pairs around economic data releases, hedging commodity exposure, or running an automated strategy through the API, the underlying pitch is the same: one account, deep liquidity, and infrastructure that doesn’t get in the way of the trade.

About Yellow Stone Finance Group Ltd

Yellow Stone Finance Group Ltd is a UK-registered CFD broker offering trading across forex, shares, metals, indices, commodities and crypto markets through its WebTrader platform, mobile apps and API access. The company is headquartered in London, England, and focuses on execution quality, pricing transparency and segregated client fund protection.

Meet Jessica Lasher: The Internet Personality Everyone Is Starting to Notice

Published

on

Every few months, social media seems to introduce a new personality that suddenly starts appearing everywhere. Sometimes it happens through one viral clip. Other times, it happens more naturally – through consistent content, growing engagement, and people sharing posts because they genuinely enjoy watching them.

That’s exactly what seems to be happening with Jessica Lasher.

Over the last year, the Vancouver-based creator has quietly built a growing online audience across multiple platforms, with fans continuing to discover her through Instagram, TikTok, X, and Snapchat. While she may still be considered a rising name in the creator space, more people online are starting to recognize her content the moment it appears on their feed.

Part of that comes from the energy she brings online. Jessica Lasher doesn’t come across like someone trying too hard to become internet famous. Her content feels relaxed, playful, confident, and personal at the same time – something followers tend to connect with quickly.

One scroll through her social media pages and it becomes easy to understand why her audience keeps growing. From fashion-focused content and cosplay-inspired looks to fitness clips and lifestyle moments, Jessica blends multiple styles together without making her content feel repetitive. That balance has helped her stand out in a space where many creators often end up looking the same.

Her audience also seems drawn to the contrast in her personality online. Some posts lean into a softer, more approachable side, while others carry a much more confident and bold energy. That mix has become a big part of her appeal.

Followers often mention that her content feels authentic – not overly scripted or heavily curated. In a social media environment filled with polished influencer branding, that kind of natural presence can make a huge difference.

And the numbers are beginning to reflect it.

Across social platforms, Jessica Lasher’s content has already generated millions of views, with clips continuing to circulate through repost pages, recommendations, and short-form video feeds. Even with a relatively early-stage following, her engagement levels continue growing as more viewers discover her content and start following her across multiple platforms.

That growth has happened steadily instead of overnight, which is often a stronger sign of long-term audience loyalty. Viral moments can bring temporary attention, but creators who continue gaining momentum usually build something deeper than quick internet trends.

Jessica’s audience appears to follow her because of her overall personality and presence, not just because of one specific post.

That difference matters.

Many online creators struggle to hold attention once trends move on, but Jessica Lasher’s content continues attracting repeat viewers because her audience never fully knows what kind of post they’ll see next. One day it may be a casual fitness clip, another day a cosplay-inspired shoot, and another a fashion-focused reel that spreads quickly across social feeds.

That unpredictability keeps her content interesting without making it feel random.

Her growing popularity also reflects a larger shift happening online right now. Audiences are becoming more interested in creators who feel relatable while still carrying a strong personal brand. Instead of following influencers who appear overly distant or manufactured, people are gravitating toward internet personalities who feel real enough to connect with while still standing out visually.

Jessica Lasher fits naturally into that space.

Her tattoos, confident style, and fashion aesthetic give her content a recognizable identity, while her softer personality keeps the overall vibe approachable rather than intimidating. It creates a balance that works especially well on modern social media platforms, where personality often matters just as much as appearance.

Another reason people are starting to notice Jessica is the consistency of her online presence. She remains active across multiple platforms, which helps keep her audience engaged while also expanding her visibility beyond a single app or algorithm.

That multi-platform growth has become increasingly important for creators trying to build long-term recognition online. Instead of relying on one viral moment, Jessica Lasher has been building familiarity – the kind that slowly turns casual viewers into loyal followers.

And judging by the growing attention around her name, that strategy appears to be working.

Search interest around Jessica Lasher has continued increasing as more viewers discover her content through recommendations, reposts, and fan pages. With every viral clip or shared post, new audiences are introduced to her content, creating the kind of momentum many creators spend years trying to build.

For now, Jessica Lasher remains one of the internet personalities people are just beginning to discover. But with her audience continuing to grow across platforms, it feels increasingly likely that her name will become much more recognizable in the months ahead.

Because once the internet starts paying attention to someone consistently, it usually means something bigger is already beginning.
