Elrond To Acquire Twispay, A Licensed Electronic Money Institution And Visa And Mastercard Principal

Operating under the brand name Twispay, Capital Financial Services S.A. is a principal member of Visa and Mastercard and is offering payment processing services to more than 300 merchants, including companies such as Blue Air, Romania’s largest airline.

The acquisition includes the full transfer of Capital Financial Services S.A. shares, which could enable Elrond Network to facilitate broader access to financial services in full compliance with current regulation. Thus, the company could offer its customers, for instance, accounts with IBANs, associated debit cards, and payments with e-money currencies.

e-Money has been designed as a digital alternative to cash for automating financial transactions in areas such as payments and ecommerce. Elrond seeks to enhance the utility of this proven and regulated value transfer framework and take it to its natural conclusion by complementing it with a blockchain technology that is fast, scalable and inexpensive.

“Elrond's goal is to create the infrastructure for a high bandwidth, low latency, transparent financial system, and give anyone anywhere easy access to it. To achieve this we are proactively working with regulators to operate in a fully compliant manner within the perimeter defined by European law. Users, merchants, companies and money institutions could benefit significantly if money flows would happen with near-instant settlement times, at 100x less cost than we pay now, with full transparency, and higher reliability.” said Beniamin Mincu, Elrond Network CEO.

It’s Time To Build: $15M USD Elrond Dubai Incubator By Morningstar Ventures

Morningstar Ventures is mobilizing significant resources to raise awareness about opportunities in the Elrond ecosystem and will invest $15 million USD into disruptive decentralized projects building with internet-scale technology.

The new Elrond Dubai incubator will offer support to global teams, with an additional focus on seizing strategic opportunities for the Elrond ecosystem in the UAE and across the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) region, where blockchain technology sees rapidly growing interest at institutional and government levels.

“It has been incredible to observe how the unique combination of vision, talent and execution capabilities enabled Elrond to outperform much bigger and way better funded teams.

Their rapidly evolving internet-scale blockchain technology is perhaps the most advanced in the space, which creates an asymmetric opportunity for Elrond to rapidly catch up with - and perhaps even surpass - the biggest blockchain ecosystems.

We’re thrilled to take this opportunity and build alongside the hardest working team and most engaged community.”
said Danilo S. Carlucci, Morningstar Ventures Co-Founder and Chief Investment Officer.

Extraordinary teams looking to build with Elrond technology, that are at least in an advanced ideation phase, can reach out to Morningstar Ventures to apply for funding and support by sending an email at elrond@morningstar.ventures

Multichain DID For Elrond Accounts Via the Litentry Decentralized Identity Aggregator

Litentry is a DID aggregation platform that unifies ownership of multiple accounts and associated assets on different blockchains under one identity.

Through our collaboration, Elrond users will be able to pass their identity across the different platforms that Liteform will support and tap into interesting potential use cases, such as displaying your Elrond NFT collection on Twitter, and many other creative use cases that can be enabled by the DID aggregator.

“The ability to privately integrate information about accounts and assets into processes spanning multiple different platforms will put Elrond Network at the forefront of the Web 3.0 transformation. We look forward to the creative use cases that will be enabled by the Litentry integration.” said Beniamin Mincu, Elrond Network CEO.

Into The VR Metaverse: Learn, Earn, Play And Create Via Bloktopia

Built as a 21-floor high-tech tower rising from a decaying world, Bloktopia offers a compelling gateway into crypto for metaverse explorers. Its NFT-based economy allows entrepreneurs to own land and develop it as virtual real estate, with advertising and events that create earning opportunities for users.

Through our collaboration, Elrond has become an Anchor Tenant in Bloktopia, which means that a virtual Elrond HQ will be placed in Level 1, where all players spawn by default. This means maximum exposure for our customized lounge, and soon the customized content, such as ecosystem highlights or educational material, that will be made available in the virtual location.

“The convergence of virtual reality and blockchain offers an unprecedented opportunity for creative expression, adding an immersive digital dimension to interpersonal relationships. Through the collaboration with Bloktopia, we reaffirm Elrond’s strategic focus on being at the forefront of the metaverse revolution.” said Beniamin Mincu, Elrond Network CEO.

Internet-Scale dApp Architecture: Make Your Elrond Applications Faster And Scalable With Microservices

Microservices are an intermediary layer between dApps and the blockchain network. They help dApps be faster and scalable by providing them with on-chain information, so the dApp doesn’t have to query the blockchain for every request.

We have created a ~10 minutes guide to help you get started with microservices. It is a follow-up to the “Build your first dApp in 15 minutes” guide, which means you can build your first Elrond dApp with a microservice in under 30 minutes.
