What’s the NFT game Tencent & Alibaba Rush into?

In June 2021, Alibaba and Dunhuang Arts Institute jointly released two NFTs, Dunhuang Flying Sky and Nine Color Deer App skins, which were limited to 16,000 in the world. The works were looted as soon as they were released.

On June 26, 2021, NetEase and Nervina Labs released their first NFT work on Taobao.

On August 3, 2021, Chinese tech giant Tencent’s  NFTs trading platform -Huanhe launched 300 copies “Vinyl Record NFT” authorized by TV program “Thirteen Invitations”, and sold out instantly.

Chinese giants’ capital is vying to chase, and it’s so fierce. So far people can’t help asking, what is NFT?

Meet NFT

NFT is short for Non-fungible Token，which is relative to the concept of Fungible Token (FT), each NFT has a unique and only identification, which is not interchangeable, and the smallest unit is 1 and indivisible.

Generally, BTC, ETH, etc. we familiar with are Fungible Token. For example, BTC everyone owns is same, it’s interchangeable with each other, can also be divided into 0.1, or 0.01 without affecting the value and use.

NFT represents indivisible and non-interchangeable items in reality, such as a real estate certificate, a famous painting, a piece of game equipment and so on. They are all unique, and completely lose their value and practicality after being divided. The most typical are collectibles and artworks. These products with non-fungible genes are digitized and tokenized using blockchain technology, and they have become popular NFTs today.

NFT is one and only

Economics stipulates that currency is a unity equivalent and a carrier of consensus on value. In modern society, personal wealth is no longer measured by currency holdings, but includes the value and quantity of assets under his name. Its assets include but not limited to items with market value such as houses, cars, stocks, etc. In most case, the value carried by an asset often far exceeds the value of the cash value they hold. However, real assets have two major shortcomings: poor liquidity and high cost of confirmation. For example, the determination of the right of a house needs to rely on the registration of the Housing Management Committee to determine the ultimate ownership of the house.

But in the blockchain world, the assets we currently have are BTC, ETH with currency attributes. After meeting demand for monetary assets, a value medium of non-monetary assets will naturally emerge, and this is NFT. Relying on the decentralization, immutability and cryptographic authentication of the blockchain, NFT solves a series of problems of real assets:

• The asset is unique and cannot be faked

• Strong liquidity, real-time trading;

• Cryptography is the confirmation and cannot be tampered with.

In addition, NFT also has features that cryptocurrency does not have. Its unique features can be used for identity certification, item ownership certification, virtual props, etc. NFT makes crypto assets more practical, enabling users to expand the utilization of valuable assets in the form of NFT, and is protected by blockchain technology.

NFT Boom Out

NFT is not a new thing born this year, it has made any public appearances early in 2017, but more regarded as a niche thing within Ethereum.

So, what is the real important promoter of NFT out of the circle?

First, let’s ask a question: How much would a digital picture be? The answer is $69.3 million！

On March 11, 2021, an unknown artist Beeple collaged his daily art work for the past thirteen years into a digital picture called “everyday: the first 5000 days”. At Christie’s, it was sold for $69.3 million, which shocked the world.

Overnight, NFT became the outlet. This 40-year-old American painter also made great fortune overnight. The popularity of NFT has caused a huge sensation in many fields such as art, venture capital, and finance.

Commercial filed such as NBA, Samsung, McDonald’s, Marvel, movie stars, etc. are all releasing their own NFT products, and venture capital industry such as Three Arrows Capital, Signum Capital, NGC Ventures, Coinbase, etc. have begun to invest in this field. Internet giants such as Tencent, JD, Facebook, Twitter, etc. are all laying out the NFT battlefield. The opportunities and challenges brought by NFT are more than that brought by the mobile Internet to the Internet.

From the perspective of business history, iPhone, Amazon, Microsoft, etc. were initially used by industry insiders. After going out of the circle by marketing, products, and the trend of the times, the entire society began to accept them, and they evolved from product for a specific group into mass infrastructure. Although the development of NFT is still at an early stage, the boom out of NFT will continue the historical trajectory and accelerate the application of blockchain technology. It is of great significance for promoting the digitalization of society.

NFT Bright Future

Except crypto artworks, will NFT have wider applications? We can find that NFT will be widely used in the future. For example, the recent popular NFT+DeFi and NFT+game, as well as the concept of meta-universe, are inseparable from the future development of NFT. The physical application of NFT will solve many problems for the society, such as: 

First, intellectual property. NFT can represent a painting, a song, a patent, a film, a photo, or other intellectual property rights. NFT can help each unique thing to register the copyright and help it identify the patent.

Second, physical assets. Real estate such as houses and other physical assets are digitized through NFT. It can be used in financial markets such as the circulation of assets.

Third, records and identification. The unique features of NFT, can be used to verify identity and birth certificates, driver’s licenses, academic certificates, etc., to prevent abuse or tampering.

There will be many physical applications of NFT in the future, which will surely solve various practical problems for the society. Presumably this is the ultimate goal of various giant capitals. As the world’s first physical digital economy token trading platform-BtLux Exchange focuses on the implementation of blockchain scenarios that are closely related to people’s lives.

Different from other cryptocurrencies with no entity value support, BtLux regards the underlying innovation of the blockchain as an important breakthrough in the independent innovation of core technology, and takes the use of blockchain to trade, calculate, and record to promote real economic activities on the chain under supervision. At the same time, realize the market operation and value management of digital assets after the certification, redefine the interest distribution relationship of producers, consumers and participants, and form a brand new financial and business model.

Soon, BtLux will accelerate the integration of NFT and physical enterprises based on years of experience in the implementation of blockchain physical scenarios, provide top-level business architecture design and digital economic model design for physical enterprises, and jointly build “blockchain” + “new ecology”, So that participants in the entire chain can benefit. It would bring tangible benefits to the real economy and the entire society, and be widely recognized by the society, making digital currency a living water, flowing in the real economy, and bringing benefits to the real economy more vitality and new power.

NFT is a new world brought about by the technological explosion era, and the digitalization process of the real world in the next ten years will also be greatly accelerated. In the future, only when NFT accelerates the deep integration of the real economy and the digital economy, the technological value of the blockchain will gradually emerge in this process. It will be able to bring new business models and reconstruct distribution models, market structures, organizational forms, and industry relationships to promote human beings to a new era of digital civilization, and in that, BtLux will become an indispensable promoter.

HornBlasters 2007 Dodge Ram 2500 Dominates the 2025 SEMA Show with 32 Train Horns and 18 Turbos

Published

February 20, 2026

By

United States, 20th Feb 2026 – HornBlasters brought a 2007 Dodge Ram 2500 to the 2025 SEMA Show that turned heads before anyone even heard it. The truck was originally built by YouTube creator WhistlinDiesel with a total of 18 turbos across the front, and videos of it racked up millions of views online. After purchasing it, HornBlasters added 32 fully functional train horns in the bed on a fabricated steel frame alongside a massive onboard air system. The result was one of the most talked-about vehicles at the 2025 SEMA show.

The Man Behind the Ultimate Horn Install

HornBlasters brought the truck to JH Diesel to design and fabricate the steel frame that makes this horn installation possible. Fitting two HornBlasters King 3 Train Horns, five HornBlasters King 5 Train Horns, a Kahlenberg KM-85 Ship Horn, four HornBlasters 1NM air compressors, and two 20-gallon air tanks into a truck bed is not a simple task.

The frame had to be engineered from scratch to handle the weight of all that hardware while keeping everything accessible for maintenance and positioned correctly for maximum sound projection.

Horn spacing and bell positioning were critical to the design. With 32 horns packed into a single bed, each one needs enough room to project sound without interference from the horns around it. JH Diesel worked through the layout until every horn had the clearance it needed to perform at full volume.

The finished frame is a piece of work on its own. Everything sits tight, looks intentional, and holds up to the vibration and stress that comes with running a system this size. It’s the kind of fabrication that makes people stop and look even before the horns honk.

Proof Is in the Parts

What makes this build matter to anyone shopping for a train horn kit is what’s powering it. Four HornBlasters air compressors and two 20-gallon tanks provide the air supply needed to run 32 horns. Beyond the added capacity, every other component in the system is identical to what ships with a standard HornBlasters horn kit.

Same heavy-duty air valves. Same pressure switch. Same wiring. Same fittings.

There were no prototype parts or custom components made specifically for this truck. The air system running the two King 3 Train Horns, five King 5 Train Horns, and a Kahlenberg KM-85 Ship Horn at SEMA is built from the same hardware that ships to customers every single day.

This was intentional from the start. HornBlasters wanted to show what their components are capable of when pushed far beyond a typical installation. Most customers install one or two horns. This truck runs 32 of them on the same valves and components that come in a standard kit. If the system can handle this, it can handle anything a customer is going to throw at it.

Crowds, Questions, and Demonstrations

The truck drew attention from the moment the show opened. Attendees gathered around it throughout the day, every day, taking photos, shooting videos, and asking questions about everything they were looking at.

The turbo setup sparked most of the initial curiosity. Does it actually run? Do all 18 turbos work? Yes and yes — all 18 turbos spool and are fully functional.

The follow-up question was always about horsepower. The real number is somewhere around 800hp. The number the HornBlasters crew gave out all week was 4,000hp, delivered with a straight face. Most people laughed. A few walked away believing it.

Once people noticed the horns, they were ready to hear them honk. HornBlasters ran demonstrations throughout the week, and every time the horns honked, the reaction was immediate. People stopped mid-conversation and turned their heads from across the show. Seeing 32 massive horns mounted in the bed was one thing — hearing all of them honk at once was something else entirely.

The biggest moment came during the rollout to SEMA Fest, the outdoor event that closes out the show each year. HornBlasters was selected to officially start the parade by honking all of the horns on the truck. When all 32 horns honked at once, thousands of spectators lining the route experienced exactly what this build was made for.

It was the perfect way to cap off a week where the truck had already become one of the most visited and revisited displays at the entire show.

Social media coverage kept the momentum going beyond the convention center. Content creators, automotive media outlets, and attendees posted photos and videos throughout the week that continue to circulate online.

More Than a Show Truck

For HornBlasters, this truck was an opportunity to put over two decades of engineering on display. The company has built its reputation on train horns, air horns, and onboard air systems that perform when it matters. This build demonstrated that commitment at a scale most customers will never need, using the exact same components that ship with every kit.

When the horns honked to kick off the SEMA Fest parade, it delivered the same result HornBlasters customers get every time they hit the button. That’s been the standard since 2002, and this truck showed the entire automotive industry exactly what that standard looks like at full scale.

About HornBlasters

HornBlasters designs and manufactures train horns, air horns, onboard air systems, and air system accessories for trucks, cars, boats, and specialty vehicles. Founded in 2002 and headquartered in Tampa, Florida, the company has built a reputation for products that combine raw power with long-term reliability. HornBlasters systems are used by drivers, builders, and enthusiasts worldwide who expect their equipment to perform when it matters.
