The Thread Weekly | Feb 7th - Feb 27th

The Thread Weekly is your best source for a quick debrief across the latest news, actions, events and happenings in web3 fashion, the open metaverse and beyond. It’s curated and published by DIGITALAX and the Global Designer Network.

Weave your way through the threads below to get all caught up on the culture from Feb 7th - Feb 27th 2022.


Top Moments

This is not a top moment, but a really important acknowledgement.

As we are all aware, countless millions are impacted by the current Putin invasion of Ukraine. One of our very own GDN members is experiencing this first hand. All of our support goes out to her and everyone else experiencing the unimaginable during these terrible times.

Blender & CLO-3D Workshop in NYC

This week we held a Blender & CLO-3D workshop in NYC. It was a tremendous opportunity to continue spreading the essential schools necessary to exercise everyone’s right to create and to talk about the importance and relevance of cc0 in the broader context of web3.

Smart Contract NFT Deployment Workshop Rescheduled

The second event for the week was rescheduled from being held due to the outbreak of conflict in Ukraine. With everything happening the only right reaction felt clearly to take a step back and reschedule. Even though the material is directly valuable to those looking to enhance what they can do to help, sometimes it is more compassionate to take a moment to reorient and listen more first.

DIGITALAX Transitioning to Full cc0

DIGITALAX recently announced its full embrace of cc0 as an authentically enabled web3 protocol. More details will be shared on this very soon and what this means for designers and realms moving forward. All in all we couldn’t be more excited to make this next major leap and level up in core self sovereign principles and infrastructure.

Rarible $100K Web3 Fashion Grant & Shared Order Books

As the massive scale up of web3 fashion, the open metaverse and all other networked complements continues, Rarible is collaborating with the DIGITALAX ecosystem to directly enable more advanced engineering and market discovery infrastructure. One of the most catalytic parts of this grant and deployment is the shared order book and liquidity features. Shared order books increase verifiable and immutable on-chain transparency and accuracy of the market picture available to all market participants. It allows the combined informational resources of many mutually aligned marketplaces to gain the upper hand in direct competition with single point of failure siloed marketplace behemoths like a Goldman or a JPM in traditional finance, or Opensea as a centralised interface for NFT markets.

Realm Runway #1: New York Fashion Week

Just two weeks ago we successfully completed the very first Realm Runway event with the Global Designer Network and Global Models Syndicate. It was such an amazing experience and there are definitely more to come on the horizon!

DIGIFIZZY Issue 10

The release of DIGIFIZZY Issue 10. Almost hard to believe that it’s been 10 full months since we released the first metaverse magazine. You can read the full February release here. For this month we are dedicating 100% of proceeds from Magazine Bundles to Ukraine DAO.
