Chinese companies register thousands of Metaverse brand names


 

Although the Central Bank of China has issued a warning about the Metaverse and NFTs, major Chinese companies are registering brand names related to the Metaverse.


Although the Chinese central bank warned of the metaverse and non-fungible tokens (NFTs) in November, more than a thousand Chinese companies have registered trademarks related to the metaverse.


At a November summit, Gou Wenjun, director of anti-money laundering and analytics at PBOC, warned of the dangers associated with digital assets . Since virtual assets have no physical basis, they can be used for illegal financial activities, according to Gou. Gou cited "illegal fundraising, pyramid schemes and fraud" as examples.


Despite warnings from the PBOC, Chinese companies have registered thousands of trademarks related to the metaverse. These include terms such as "Metaverse Satellite" and "Metaverse Exhibition". According to the South China Morning Post 8534 mark in connection with the metaverse have until Sunday over 1,360 Chinese enterprises to register .


Most of the companies that have registered a trademark are technology companies. These include large companies like Huawei and Hisense. Huawei has secured the brand name "Meta OS", while Hisense has registered several brands in various areas such as social services, advertising and science. Games and tech giant Tencent has done the same, registering nearly a hundred trademarks related to the metaverse. Including "QQ Metaverse", "QQ Music Metaverse" and "Kings Metaverse".


In addition to the Chinese central bank, the official newspaper of the Chinese Communist Party, People's Daily, issued a warning in connection with the metaverse on December 9th. The newspaper warned people buying digital assets that doing business in Metaverses posed a high risk of volatility.

The registrations of these trademarks came as no surprise to many people as the demand for NFTs continues to grow . NFT sales in the past seven days alone totaled $ 580.7 million, according to NFT sales tracker Crypto Slam. NFT's revenue is projected to reach $ 17.7 billion in 2021, according to Cointelegraph Consulting .

From offchain to offchain: Statechains meets Lightning

  Without a doubt, the most significant off-chain Bitcoin solution is the Lightning network. But in its wake, the statechain has emerged as an intriguing replacement. There is currently a proposal to link the two offchain networks. From an ocean, for example, you can see sunbeams glistening in the water, waves rippling, and possibly a jellyfish drifting toward the light. But you only see a small portion of it. The distance from the sea's surface to its bottom is hundreds of meters. It has dozens of different fish species swimming in it, crabs and starfish crawling on the bottom, shells clinging to rocks, and sea plants climbing up. A completely new world starts where your gaze diverges. You can picture a blockchain like Bitcoin, just like the sea. What you see on the outside is only a small portion of what is actually there; the set of UTXOs (coins) and transaction history that full nodes store are just the beginning of a much larger world. It's the plan, at least. With Bitcoin

British financial regulator criticizes cooperation between Binance and Paysafe

  The British financial regulator FCA has expressed concerns about the partnership between market-leading crypto exchange Binance and payment service provider Paysafe. As the British regulator complains, the partnership gives Binance access to the influential British payment network Faster Payments Service (FPS), from which the crypto exchange was previously cut off. Last June, the FCA ordered Binance to stop all business activities in Great Britain. As a result, prominent banks such as Barclays have terminated their cooperation with the leading crypto trading platform . Through the cooperation with Paysafe, Binance can now again offer deposits in British pounds sterling and transactions within the European Payments Area (SEPA). However, this fact is a thorn in the side of the FCA, as it classifies the crypto exchange as a “considerable risk factor”. However, the financial regulator sees little room for maneuver to counteract this, as the Financial Times reports . “ Paysafe understands
