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

Published

on

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.

Amboss Opens Affiliate Program: Earn Recurring Bitcoin Commissions by Growing Bitcoin Payments

Published

on

Miami, Florida, August 17th, 2026, FinanceWire

Amboss Technologies today launched the Amboss Affiliate Program, an open invitation to anyone who can introduce businesses to lower-cost, chargeback-free payments while expanding the Bitcoin payments network.

Approved affiliates earn 15% of the platform fees Amboss collects from each referred merchant for the first twelve months. That rate rises automatically to 20% once an affiliate’s referred merchants process a combined $1 million or more in trailing 30-day volume. There is no cost to join, no exclusivity requirement, and no earnings cap. Commissions sit in a rewards balance that can be claimed in any amount at any time and are paid in bitcoin over the Lightning Network in seconds.

The Amboss Payments API lets merchants accept instant, final Bitcoin payments from the roughly 900 million users of Lightning-enabled apps (including Cash App, Coinbase, Binance, and Kraken) then settle in USDT, USDC, or bitcoin under their own custody for a flat 0.5% fee. Optional conversion to stablecoins uses Lightning Labs’ bridgeless Taproot Assets, removing the volatility objection that has long blocked broader merchant adoption.

“Most payments companies spend heavily on ads and still end up with a sales force that doesn’t care about Bitcoin,” said Jesse Shrader, co-founder and CEO of Amboss. “We would rather pay the people who already talk to merchants every day, and pay them in bitcoin. If you help a business accept Lightning payments, you should share in the revenue for the first year of every account you create. We made the economics generous on purpose.”

The program is built for the people who already sit between merchants and their payment decisions: Lightning and Bitcoin integrators, payment consultants and PSPs, wallet and POS platforms, e-commerce tools, and creators inside the Bitcoin ecosystem. Affiliates never touch funds or handle onboarding. Amboss manages the product, merchant verification, integration support, and payouts.

“We only pay commissions out of revenue we actually collect,” said Mario Pazos, Chief Commercial Officer. “That means a referred merchant is never a loss for us, so every additional affiliate is pure reach. Our early partners are already moving volume. The application takes about two minutes.”

Applications are open now. Signup requires only basic identifying information for sanctions screening. Affiliates earning under $2,000 in a calendar year have no U.S. tax filing requirement.

TripleDart tops $7 million ARR with AI-led growth, reports 50 per cent EBIT margin

Published

on

Bengaluru, India, August 11th, 2026, TechnologyWire

TripleDart Crosses $7M ARR at 50% EBIT Margin, Making the Case for Bootstrapped “Services-as-Software”

TripleDart, a bootstrapped B2B growth company, today announced it has crossed $7 million in annual recurring revenue while operating at a 50% EBIT margin. The company says software, not additional headcount or capital, drove the jump.

The milestone lands in the middle of a heated debate. Venture investors have poured more than $300 million into “services-as-software” startups this year alone, betting that labor-heavy services work can be run at software-level margins. Most funded players in the category have picked a single slice of marketing to prove that out, design, or content, or SEO. TripleDart says it has done it across the entire inbound marketing function, which it believes makes it the first company in India to do so.

The engine behind the shift is Slate, an AI-agent platform TripleDart built in-house after concluding no existing tool could do the job. Slate’s agents run live SEO, content and AI-visibility work, while a “cowork” mode lets client teams work alongside the agents directly, the company’s attempt at building a marketing function that behaves like a product rather than an agency.

TripleDart has grown to 120 people over four and a half years, and now manages more than $200 million in ad spend across over 300 client companies, including General Electric, SentinelOne, ByteDance, Sage and Glean in the US, and WeWork, Cognizant and MakeMyTrip in India.

“The services-as-software wave has raised hundreds of millions to prove one thesis: that you can run a services business at software margins,” said Shiyam Sunder, Founder and Managing Director, TripleDart. “We proved it without a single dollar of funding, and we did it for every marketing service, not one slice. At TripleDart, we don’t see ourselves as an agency that bolted on some software- we rebuilt the function as software from day one. When a bootstrapped team can do that profitably, the ‘agency’ label stops fitting. That’s a category, not an agency.”

TripleDart’s numbers are one data point in a larger argument the market is still having: whether services businesses can genuinely be rebuilt at software margins, or whether venture funding is required to get there. TripleDart’s position is that the model works in India, profitably, without a funding round.

About TripleDart

TripleDart is a Bengaluru-based B2B growth partner that has rebuilt the full inbound marketing function as software. Working with more than 300 companies across the US and India and managing over $200 million in ad spend, the bootstrapped company operates at software-level margins through its in-house AI-agent platform, Slate. Its clients include General Electric, SentinelOne, ByteDance, Sage, Glean, WeWork, Cognizant and MakeMyTrip.

Pullner Reports Sustained Demand for Filtration Cartridges Across Power Generation Sector

Published

on

Miami, FL 33166, United States, 17th Aug 2026 – Pullner, a well-known manufacturer of OEM and ODM filtration solutions, has reported sustained demand for filtration cartridges from operators in the power generation sector during the past twelve months. The company said order volumes for cartridge products supplied to thermal, combined-cycle and cogeneration facilities have held steady, with enquiries linked to scheduled maintenance intervals, plant life-extension work and tightening water quality requirements at generating stations.

Filtration equipment performs several distinct roles within a generating facility. Cartridges are commonly installed in boiler feedwater and condensate polishing circuits, in lubricating and turbine oil systems, in closed cooling water loops, and in pre-treatment stages ahead of demineralisation or reverse osmosis units. Each duty carries different requirements for micron rating, flow capacity, chemical compatibility and operating temperature, which means a single site may specify several cartridge types across its systems.

Pullner supplies high-flow, pleated, string wound, membrane and stainless steel cartridge formats, together with the filter housings in which those elements are installed. The company said the mix of formats requested by generating facilities has remained broadly consistent, with high-flow and pleated elements accounting for the larger share of volume in water treatment duties, and stainless steel elements more often specified where elevated temperatures, aggressive cleaning regimes or repeated reuse are involved.

Several factors appear to be supporting the pattern of demand. Operators of older thermal plants are extending asset life rather than commissioning replacements, which sustains consumable spending on maintenance items. Facilities in coastal and arid regions increasingly draw makeup water from desalinated or recycled sources, adding pre-treatment stages that rely on cartridge filtration. Plants running on more variable load profiles, in response to the growth of intermittent renewable generation, also cycle equipment more frequently, which can shorten service intervals.

“Demand from generating facilities has been steady rather than seasonal, and that reflects the fact that filtration is tied to maintenance schedules instead of new construction,” said Lucy, Sales Manager at Pullner. “Most of the enquiries received over the past year have come from plants that are already operating and are either standardising the elements held in stores or adjusting specifications after a change in feedwater quality.”

A substantial share of the cartridges supplied to the sector is produced under OEM and ODM arrangements, where Pullner manufactures to a customer’s drawing or develops an element to meet a defined performance specification. Work of this kind can involve matching end cap configurations and sealing arrangements to existing housings, selecting media grades and materials suited to a particular fluid, and confirming dimensional compatibility so that replacement elements fit equipment already installed on site. The company said the approach is frequently requested by plants that operate housings from multiple original suppliers and prefer to consolidate replacement elements with a single manufacturer.

Technical support forms part of the supply process. Pullner provides sizing assistance, media selection guidance and documentation covering materials of construction and test data. Orders are coordinated through the company’s office in Miami, Florida, a location that provides access to distribution routes serving North America, Latin America and the Caribbean. Generating facilities in those regions often operate in conditions that place additional demands on filtration equipment, including high ambient temperatures, elevated dust loads and saline water sources.

Experience across other sectors also informs the work. Pullner supplies filtration products to microelectronics, petrochemical processing, pharmaceuticals, food and beverage, desalination and automotive manufacturing. The company said requirements developed for one industry are often transferable — media validated for petrochemical service, for example, may suit fuel and lubricating oil duties at a generating station, while elements developed for desalination plants have application at seawater-cooled facilities.

“Planned capacity additions and ongoing refurbishment programmes across several markets suggest that consumable filtration requirements will continue,” Lucy said. “Development work over the coming period is focused on extending the range of housing-compatible formats and on materials suited to higher operating temperatures, both of which have been raised repeatedly by customers in the generation sector.”

Pullner manufactures filter cartridges and housings for industrial and commercial applications, working with clients on catalogue items as well as custom-configured products. The company operates from Miami, Florida, and serves customers across a range of process industries, including microelectronics, petrochemical, pharmaceuticals, food and beverage, desalination and automotive. The reported pattern of orders from power generation customers reflects continued maintenance activity at existing facilities rather than a change in the company’s product range.
