We worked with Scotch & Soda to launch Club Soda 3.0, a free-spirited Web3 community enabled by NFTs. The creation and minting of NFTs is powered by Salesforce's new NFT Cloud technology allowing users to mint, manage and sell NFTs on a trusted and sustainable platform.

The launch of Club Soda 3.0 includes minting 1,000 Founder’s Pass NFTs, which serve as a point of entry to exclusive experiences, events, and offers from Scotch & Soda. All of the brand’s NFTs are minted on Polygon, a sustainable blockchain that uses proof-of-stake consensus protocol.

We SOLD OUT all 1,000 NFT's within 24 hours.

Our whitelist consisted of 1812 wallets and 1158 accounts. 788 members were Club Soda 2.0 members, creating +30% net new Club Soda accounts.

Protocol Labs is an open-source research, development, and deployment laboratory working on projects including IPFS, Filecoin, and libp2p. We've worked with Protocol Labs building open source tools and helping with testing and optimizations of various projects. Some things we've worked on with PL include building a network inspector style debugging tool for the Kademlia DHT implementation of go-libp2p, creating a network visualization and debugging tool using WebGL for Filecoin capable of visualizing large portions of the chain and ensuring consensus was happening as expected, and working on testing and optimizations for libp2p's gossip sub protocol in preparation for its integration into ETH 2.0.

Blockchain powered music streaming platform.

We built Sounchain’s blockchain-powered music streaming application, giving more power and economic opportunity to artists and their fans by bringing them together directly while eliminating middlemen like record companies and titan music platforms. By allowing users to freely mint and sell audio NFT’s, artists can maintain ownership and control of the music they create. We built this marketplace on Polygon while adding the generation of non-custodial ETH/Matic wallets from which users have the ability to view their complete transaction history including royalties.

Additionally, we deployed a native token (OGUN) with strategic airdrops and distribution methods such as token staking and liquidity pool rewards. We assisted in setting up the initial liquidity pool via QuickSwap to allow trading via a decentralized exchange.

Immersive livestreams with your favorite artists.

With the global pandemic hindering the live music industry in 2020/2021, live stream concert companies such as Mandolin looked to help artists expand on the traditional concert experience. We worked with Mandolin and OpenSea to build an NFT marketplace for a performance by Jake Cinniger (of Umphrey’s McGee) in which he constructed an original song from scratch, in real-time. Users could purchase, and bid on digital merch (including 3D animated posters, the right to name the completed song and an NFT of the song itself), mid-show, directly from Mandolin’s platform.

Canara (now CPG Data Center Innovators) is a major company in the smart battery sector, successfully applying predictive technology to batteries and deploying this across their services. They monitor hundreds of power supply battery units in data centers, and forecasts the failure time so that their customers can swap their batteries out well before failure. The better the forecast, the more money their customers can save by swapping their batteries later. Canara was using a crude polynomial fit to perform the forecast before we added a Kalman filter forecast, which alone improved the prediction relative to the polynomial fit and on top of that, built a machine learning model that improved the forecast further. A large portion of the project involved handling the multitude of battery makes and models and cleaning up/smoothing/aggregating the raw, noisy time series data (which was of different collection frequencies and calibrations)

NFT platform designed for major sports teams, universities, and brands.

We built a complete, custom, white-label NFT marketplace solution for Rare Goods, major teams and institutions to launch their own NFT drops. Admins can batch mint their own NFTs on Polygon with custom royalties, set sales and auction parameters, and view relevant data and reports. Users can buy NFTs using credit cards in primary sales and auctions and also re-list and then cash out on an in-platform secondary marketplace. Given the Rare Goods’ partnerships and the users they target, we kept compliance and ease of use a top priority. After working with Circle to facilitate support of fiat integrations, we implemented a KYC/AML policy and focused on supporting a very intuitive user interface to make the platform accessible to non crypto natives (who we hope to convert to the dark side 😉 ). Rare Goods has recently launched with an NHL team and has many exciting things to come in 2022!

Unique NFT drop that features SCMP's photo journalism.

SCMP came to us with a vision: creating a standard for Artifact NFTs, NFTs that have historical significance. They wanted to have their newspaper covers from the year 1997 become the first Artifacts in honor of the anniversary of the handover of Hong Kong to China.

Using Flow blockchain technology, we created smart contracts and an administrative system that allows SCMP to create and manage NFT drops. The drops happen in the form of Artifact Packs with multiple NFTs of a variety of rarities. SCMP sold out the first drop of 1307 packs within the first 2 hours.
