Rarible
Introducing a creator-focused NFT marketplace that features a program for community governance, marking it as the first marketplace entirely owned by its users. This platform allows individuals to create, trade, and collect digital assets secured through blockchain technology. NFTs, or non-fungible tokens, encompass unique digital items such as art pieces, collectibles, and game assets, particularly those that conform to the ERC-721 smart contract standard on Ethereum's blockchain. By tokenizing their creations, artists can ensure the uniqueness of their work and establish their personal brand identity. Ownership management through blockchain technology guarantees actual possession of these digital items. RARI, the marketplace's native governance token, has been established to reward active users and provide them with a say in the platform's future direction. As we continue to expand our market outreach and user base, we have decided to transition into a fully decentralized autonomous organization. The introduction of RARI serves to empower the Rarible community, enabling them to shape decisions and foster greater engagement within the platform. This commitment to decentralization not only enhances user involvement but also aligns with the evolving landscape of digital ownership.

Meter
Meter is an advanced infrastructure specifically designed to allow smart contracts to scale and operate seamlessly across multiple blockchain networks. As a hybrid of Layer 1 and Layer 2 protocols, Meter revolves around two essential tokens: MTRG, serving as the governance token (with its ERC20 version known as eMTRG), and MTR, which functions as a stable currency token.
To ensure smooth and unrestricted transfer of financial assets among blockchains, Meter utilizes a HotStuff-based consensus mechanism that accommodates thousands of validator nodes, establishing itself as the most decentralized Layer 2 solution for Ethereum. The platform boasts the ability to handle thousands of transactions per second, resulting in near-instant transaction confirmations. Furthermore, Meter Passport allows for assets and smart contracts to move and engage across different blockchains, optimizing aspects such as price, liquidity, and yield. Notably, Meter distinguishes itself as an Ethereum-compatible platform enriched with unique characteristics. Unlike other Layer 2 solutions, decentralized exchanges (DEXes) on Meter are designed to be impervious to front-running and miner extractable value (MEV) dilemmas, ensuring transactions are both rapid and censorship-resistant. This unique blend of features positions Meter as a formidable contender in the ever-evolving blockchain landscape, demonstrating its potential to revolutionize cross-chain interactions.
