No room for hate Nazis are up to mischief in the Shiba Inu Metaverse

 


Less than a week ago, the sales phase for virtual plots in the Shiba Inu Metaverse ended , in which plots changed hands for sometimes a lot of money. A few hours before the end of the auction, members of the associated Discord channel noticed that a user was buying land in a way that the lots combined to form a swastika at the end. This was recognizable because the user changed the color of the respective plots of land from gray to black after purchasing them - and the Nazi symbol gradually became visible.


Shiba Inu Community Discussed: Freedom of Speech or Hate Speech?

"We do not condone hate speech, signs of intolerance, or bigotry (through words, actions, imagery, etc.)" read a statement released by Shiba Inu's Metaverse team in the wake of the swastika property purchase breaking news. They blacklisted the wallet associated with the incident shortly thereafter. As a result, the user behind this wallet can no longer participate in what is happening in the metaverse.

The @ShibTheMV account also tweeted an image with supplemental guidelines and urged people to read them:



However, some users see the restrictions as a threat to the decentralization of the project.


This is a step towards centralization. I don't think anyone should draw swastikas, but that's a lot of power in a decentralized system.

But the right to freedom of expression is not an absolute right. Restrictions are possible if applicable laws are violated. For example, swastikas, including in Germany, do not fall under the protection of freedom of expression. The Council of Europe writes in a press release : “Freedom of expression ends where hate begins.”


Away from the debate about the Metaverse's decentralization, another user worries about the future valuation of his properties that were near the swastika:


That lowers the value of our land. 99.99 percent of people will only see it as a hate symbol.

Strong sign against the right

However, the majority of the community clearly positions itself on the side of the Metaverse developers and does not see hate speech as part of free speech. According to the tenor of the community, even a decentralized metaverse should not offer any space for it. They sent a strong signal against the right by buying up land around the swastika: the swastika became a window.

The 5 largest platforms for non-fungible token (NFT) collectibles

  Since the beginning of 2021, non-fungible tokens (NFT) have had no holding back and the sector is setting new records almost every day.  More and more artists, stars and brands are realizing the potential - NFT are well on their way to catapulting the crypto space into the mainstream.  But which collectibles are currently the most popular? What are NFT? NFT are unique tokens that cannot be exchanged one-for-one for an equivalent token.  Any asset that is tokenizable can be an NFT.  This includes, for example, (digital) works of art, trading cards, game items and crypto domains.  Theoretically, however, real estate or securities can also be mapped as NFT. NFTs can be used to transparently map ownership structures on a public blockchain.  This allows them to store value just like real objects, even if additional copies are easy to make.  For example, the original picture of the Mona Lisa is significantly more valuable than a photo, as everyone kno...

CARDALONIA: THE CARDANO METAVERSE OPENS THE GATES!

  Have you ever been to Cardalonia? With these words, the Cardano Metaverse called Cardalonia starts the gates. In this 3D world, developers and users can interact with each other. First of all, users have to create an individual character with which they can move online. After that you can enter one of the worlds built by developers with this character. You can also purchase your own land in the Cardano Metaverse via the marketplaces in Cardalonia . This is secured by Cardano's blockchain technology and therefore offers a relatively secure transfer of ownership. Since these are only digital plots of land, it is not yet entirely clear when the plots of land are purchased whether they can also be sold again in the future. A possible profit cannot be estimated at the moment. In Cardalonia, the cryptocurrency Lonia is used. The maximum amount of tokens in circulation is 100,000,000. The team consists of Alice Sand (Co-Founder), Vasil Air (CTO) and Dustan Water (Fullstack Developer). T...

Cardano: This is the vision that founder Charles Hoskinson has

  The Altcoin Cardano has tended to decline in recent weeks.  The Alonzo upgrade was supposed to bring improvements, but it soon turned out to be a disappointment.  Cardano founder Charles Hoskinson presented his vision for the cyber motto in a live Twitter video. • Cardano in the last few months under pressure • Charles Hoskinson explains his Cardano vision via Twitter • Security and privacy at the center The cryptocurrency  Cardano  has had a difficult few months.  While founder Charles Hoskinson's cyber motto has had a strong run in 2021, it has been steadily downhill in recent months.  Cardano is faced with some difficulties.  The so-called Alonzo upgrade went live in mid-September, for which crypto fans had high hopes, but which soon turned out to be a disappointment.  The upgrade should make it possible to use smart contracts on the cryptocurrency as well.  It soon turned out, however, that although these were entered into Cardano,...
