Many creatives aspire to have a successful and fulfilling career in the fashion world, but sadly, this achievement has eluded many. Newly available technology in the industry, such as 3D fashion design software has made it easier for designers to work from home – but they are not designed to provide artists with work opportunities. What many creators need is a strong network, combined with the attractive quality of innovation surrounding their work. Without these things, fine works from talented individuals pass under the radar unnoticed. A Collaborative DAO For Fashion Creatives A new blockchain-based project is being initiated with the goal of offering the everyday, unknown creative or fashion enthusiast a platform where they can simultaneously create a professional network for themselves, while innovatively designing fashion items. Parisian luxury fashion brand Faith Connexion will launch the project as a DAO (Decentralized Autonomous Organisation) under the name “Faith Tribe”. It has been developed to be the first fully decentralized and community-owned ecosystem for the collaborative creation of fashion items. The utilisation of Web3 tools brings an innovative edge to those who use them for the purpose of product development, and Faith Tribe’s creative platform will empower creators all over the world with the ability to design, customize, mint and distribute their own digital NFT and physical fashion assets. A Fusion Which Nurtures Newcomers As a community-focused and collaborative brand, Faith Connexion shares similarities with the culture of many existing blockchain-based projects because they are decentralized – not controlled by a sole entity. Faith Tribe will fuse aspects of modern fashion design and NFT communities in order to nurture the growth of newcomers into both the fashion and crypto scene. This ultimately serves the purpose of providing these creatives with opportunities they would not normally be graced with, on an inclusive platform where the income disparities, education level, race, gender, geography, or country of origin of its users is irrelevant. What will matter in Faith Tribe is the quality of its creators’ contributions, as participation in design and collaborations is what will establish users as part of the community. The Design Platform and Protocol This combined gift of the ability to create, network and innovate in one place will be bestowed onto the users of Faith Tribe’s creative platform. This is where the virtual design and customisation of entire garments, outfits and accessories will unfold, along with the designs being minted as NFTs onto the platform’s native NFT Marketplace. Royalty fees and prices can be set by the product creator, who will maintain either full or fractional ownership of their digital assets in perpetuity. Therefore, users can continue to profit from all future sales stemming from their designs, and will have the tools to track distribution and sales of their digital or physical products. The design process is not at all rigid – flexibility is very much needed in the creative process. Designers and artists will have the choice of either working independently or collaboratively on their own designs, or choosing from an existing and eligible garment to then customize even further. Users who are simply interested in design and don’t want to create a physical product will be able to create a single piece or collection of digital-only fashion goods. Those who are interested however, can create their digital designs with a physical twin. Faith Tribe’s Design Protocol is foundational to all of this, as it provides the underlying technology infrastructure on which the studio and marketplace operate and integrate with the rest of the ecosystem. This protocol enables Faith Tribe to potentially integrate with other DeFi protocols such as AAVE and other NFT marketplaces. Equipping The Next Generation The world of DeFi, NFTs and crypto can seem closed off to those who are not familiar with its contents. Faith Tribe’s creative platform and DAO hope to act as an access point that will open up its unknown but talented contributors to both Web3 technology and the fashion industry. Faith Connexion plans to launch Faith Tribe in January, and it will be exciting to see it thoroughly equipping the next generation of sartorial innovators with the tools to grow and succeed.

In their December report, Marathon Digital Holdings announced their total BTC holdings. And assured their investors that they were not selling any of it any time soon. This is particularly interesting considering the company bought “a record number” of S19s in December. Reportedly, they got a giant loan using Bitcoin as collateral. An operation we’ll see a lot more in the near future throughout the industry.  The report quotes Fred Thiel, Marathon’s CEO, in a celebratory mode. “2021 was a transformative year for Marathon as we increased our hash rate 1,790% and increased our bitcoin production 846% year-over-year to 3,197 self-mined BTC.” Staggering numbers that show the size of the Bitcoin mining business. Marathon announced an record investment of nearly $1B in new equipment just before Xmas… BUT THEIR STILL HODLING ALL THEIR #BTC!https://t.co/PRlaHMNR7j — What Bitcoin Did (@WhatBitcoinDid) January 4, 2022 As for their plans, the report says: “The Company last sold bitcoin on October 21, 2020, and since then, has been accumulating or “hodling” all bitcoin generated. As a result, Marathon currently holds approximately 8,133 BTC, including the 4,813 BTC the Company purchased in January 2021 for an average price of $31,168 per BTC.” Of course, they’re not alone. NewsBTC documented the trend throughout the whole year.  Most Miners Are Holding Strong One of the first persons to spot the trend was Lex Moskovski. In February, the analyst reported on “the first day since Dec, 27 when Miners Position change turned positive.”  Miners have stopped selling and started accumulating #Bitcoin Yesterday was the first day since Dec, 27 when Miners Position change turned positive. Miners were selling their bitcoins for two months. Bullish. pic.twitter.com/S89iBcz4k3 — Lex Moskovski 🐙 (@mskvsk) February 27, 2021 Approximately four months ago, NewsBTC used data to find a possible explanation: “Data shows that miner profitability has dropped in comparison to the last time that bitcoin was at this price. The profitability for bitcoin back in April at $50K had been 40% higher than it is right now when bitcoin hit $50K again. This means that miner profitability is hitting the lows at all-time highs. This drop in profitability has seen miners refusing to sell the BTC they are rewarded with for mining blocks. Instead choosing to hold these coins in wait for much higher prices.” Miner profitability might be decreasing, but, the business is still a long way from turning red. Especially for a giant operation like Marathon. In a recent interview that NewsBTC reported on, Fred Thiel said. “Thiel expressed that, factoring operational mining costs (energy plus hosting), Bitcoin’s breakeven rate is roughly $6,500, meaning that the digital coin would need to drop at least 80% for Marathon to face challenging difficulties.” Less than three months ago, NewsBTC reported on another set of data that showed the same phenomenon: “As pointed out by a CryptoQuant post, BTC miner reserves continue to trend sideways amid the coin’s strong move up. The “miner reserve” is a indicator that shows the total amount of Bitcoin that miners are currently holding in their wallets. An increase in the metric’s value suggests miners think the coin’s value will go up in the near future, hence they are stocking up on it.” BTC price chart for 01/05/2021 on FX | Source: BTC/USD on TradingView.com The Marathon Mining Company’s Future The company’s recent billion-dollar investment is a play for the future. Especially considering just when those machines will arrive. “On December 23, 2021, Marathon announced that it had entered into a contract with BITMAIN to purchase a record number of ANTMINER S19 XP (140 TH/s) bitcoin miners, all of which are currently expected to ship from BITMAIN between July 2022 and December 2022.” The chip shortage is real, people. If an order this size can only be fulfilled in six to twelve months, something’s up. Also, by the looks of it, the ASIC manufacturing business might be even more profitable than Bitcoin mining.
