MINISTRY OF COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT - MOCD, UAE ADOPTS PROOF OF CONCEPT BY PROXIMAXProximaX deploys the ProximaX Sirius platform for MOCD within 2 weeks.GIBRALTAR Nov 13, 2018 (Blockchain Wire) GIBRALTAR / DUBAI / 14 NOVEMBER 2018 - The Ministry of Community Development of the United Arab Emirates announced today that they have rolled out a Proof of Concept – PoC, powered by the ProximaX Sirius blockchain platform solution. ProximaX and NEM Foundation jointly worked on the solution, where ProximaX provided its Sirius platform, integrated the Apostille, and completed the voting module for MOCD. The ProximaX Sirius platform consists of a Distributed File Management System, a work collaboration module, and an enterprise version of the NEM Catapult private chain solution. The deployment of the platform has now enabled MOCD to continue to add in more applications as they start to implement their blockchain initiatives. The platform can further be enhanced by adding more components into the Sirius platform, such as streaming and messaging, decentralised database, and permissioning solutions. According to Mr. Saeed Abdulla, Minister's Advisor at MOCD, “We are impressed with how the PoC was completed in 2 weeks, and we are excited that with this POC we can continue to develop and deploy solutions on the ProximaX Sirius platform. In the following months, we shall be looking at how we can improve and add more modules and applications into this platform solution. With this PoC we hope to be able to achieve our vision of becoming a blockchain-enabled government by the year 2021.” The Sirius platform is also service ready for cross-ministry or department integration, allowing other blockchain solutions to integrate with the platform through a permission-based API access. "The solution is designed for easy deployment and hence we completed this PoC deployment within 2 weeks. It is indeed a world-class production-quality enterprise solution." - Lon Wong, CEO, ProximaX. Lon adds that this is a very powerful solution because it has most of the fundamental elements of an enterprise class platform to deploy any solution using blockchain as an underlying immutable transaction record. Coupled with other components in the system, it also allows for data transaction. All data is encrypted by default, giving rise to a highly secure information and data record, and store. "The Memorandum of Understanding with MOCD is a demonstration of how the NEM.io foundation charter is instrumental in bringing ecosystem players together to provide the best of breed solution for the client. ProximaX has proven how easy it is to implement the NEM Catapult solution and moving forward from here, we should see more Catapult adoption in industries.” – Stephen Chia, Council Member of NEM.io Foundation and Head of SEA Operations. ProximaX, through the NEM foundation will commit and continue to support the MOCD into full deployment eventually. It is hoped that this solution will be utilised by other ministries and departments.

LuxTag secures $600K in funding to fight counterfeiting with blockchainLuxTag, a Malaysian solution provider that secures valuable assets on the NEM blockchain, has secured US$600,000 in funding from a seed round led by XSquared Ventures. This round of funding will push LuxTag’s valuation to over US $6.6 million. LuxTag provides digitized certificates of authenticity for products registered on a blockchain. The LuxTag technology allows these certificates to be immutable, updatable, and flexibly transferrable. The negotiations began in late last year when representatives from XSquared Ventures visited LuxTag’s office. Jeff McDonald, CTO of LuxTag brought the dialogues further, visiting XSquared Ventures in early 2018. The collaboration finalized the agreement in May 2018. XSquared Ventures has experience investing in another blockchain company, He3. Besides the relationship value that this partnership will bring to the company, this investment will allow LuxTag to further their mission of combating counterfeits through the introduction of a tamper-proof authentication. LuxTag plans on using this funding to expand its operations, hiring more developers to decrease the time needed to complete development work on NEM Catapult, the open source core blockchain technology, considered to be the NEM version 2.0. LuxTag will also set up services in the United States dedicated to customer support and product integration.

Announcement of a Proof-of-Concept Launch for “Blockchain Toreca” Utilizing the mijin blockchain platform TOKYO – June 12, 2018 – Today, Tech Bureau, Corp. (“Tech Bureau”), a crypto-fintech company, announced a launch of a Proof-of-Concept (PoC) for “Blockchain Toreca” with Aeria Inc. (“Aeria”) using their blockchain platform mijin starting from Monday, June 18th 2018. About Blockchain TorecaIt is a service which adopts a method to register, issue, and distribute the trading cards per unit of one card as a digital asset. Instead of managing the trading cards on the operating company’s server, by using the blockchain technology it enables to record and distribute the trading cards that are almost impossible to modify. Each purchased cards have their own characteristics. A battle game can be enjoyed which the match’s outcome is decided depending on the timing of tapping the screen and the affinity of combination of the played cards and the characteristics. Also, a gorgeous effect*1 will be added for the cards that have gained a certain amount of points. *1 The characteristics of the cards, the points of the game, and the effects that will be added will be used just in the Blockchain Toreca game. These elements will not be recorded on the blockchain. The possession status is the only information that will be recorded on the blockchain. When the ownership of the card changes, these three elements will be renewed. The Blockchain Toreca teaser website: https://blockchain-card.com/Why mijin?Initially, it was planned to use Ethereum, however, Aeria is currently putting an effort to adopt blockchain technology. Not only for Blockchain Toreca but at the moment there are also plans for the escrow services to adopt the blockchain technology, and it was considered that mijin is a suitable private blockchain in order to hold a PoC for each service. In addition, it is compatible with NEM and it is rather easy to develop a public blockchain, therefore, mijin has been chosen. ScheduleThe PoC is planned to run for a week under the following period: Monday, June 18th 2018 to Monday, June 25th 2018 After solving issues that have been occurred during the PoC period, the official launch of the service is planned to be in July 2018.
