Art and Charity Focused Metaverse Ecosystem, TabinekoKIKI, Bringing Love in Both Real and Virtual Worlds

TabinekoKIKI

What started as a group of 3 artists: Natsuki, Rakuko, and Shino, working for animal charities with their creative activities, especially for stray cats rescue and FIP (Feline Infectious Peritonitis) treatments, TabinekoKIKI entered blockchain and metaverse to bring love and entertainment in both real and virtual worlds through its very own PFP NFT collection, Tsubasa, serving as the genesis of TabinekoKIKI ecosystem, and a deflationary ecosystem currency and payment token, $TABI. An Ecosystem Spreading Love and Freedom The core concepts of Tsubasa, “Loving, Caring, Free, Healing, and Anti-Labeling” make it a symbol of freedom. During the creation of Tsubasa artwork, the project focused on creating a relaxing, uplifting, and refreshing feeling for the audience, with elements like wings, stars, winds, codes, flowers, and melodies. TabinekoKIKI believes that love and passion are wings that can be used to break down boundaries, eliminate labels, abandon stereotypes, understand, feel, and love, and create a free world that belongs to everyone, regardless of gender, ethnicity, religion, class, or even species. Tsubasa is also the record label and fashion label of TabinekoKIKI ecosystem. TABI - Tsubasa Ecosystem Currency TABI is the deflationary ecosystem currency and payment token of TabinekoKIKI and Project Tsubasa, where they support artists, content creators, animal/minority charities, with establishments of exhibit curation, record label, and fashion branding. As TabinekoKIKI and Project Tsubasa evolve and grow into various events and activities in the metaverse, TABI serves as the one and only reserved currency for the vast majority of Project Tsubasa spending and rewarding mechanisms in both the metaverse and reality. TABI is supported by a well-established team, and products and services delivered. Optimized tokenomics ensure the long-term viability and growth of both the TABI Token value and the Tsubasa NFT Floor. Tsubasa Entertainment's Talent Academy Tsubasa Entertainment was founded at the end of February and has already presented two talents, Rrah (OnlyRrah on Twitter) and HypeUnicorn (hypeUnicorn_ on Twitter) as their first singer/songwriter and Twitch.tv gaming broadcaster, respectively. Tsubasa Entertainment's Talent Academy assists in the identification, development, and creation of life-changing content by introducing fresh talents. It also encourages all talents to collaborate on cross-functional projects: Animators provide their work to create beautiful videos for musicians, Illustrators contribute beautiful artworks to stunning and immersive stories of our writers, and Musicians help Illustrator with the right soundtrack to make us escape reality and whatnot. Further details about the NFT collection, Staking, Utilities and $TABI can be found on the project's social platforms and official website.

Shareholder Activist Wants Warren Buffett to 'Save' Capitalism

National Legal & Policy Center

Peter Flaherty, Chairman of the National Legal and Policy Center (NLPC), will today present a shareholder proposal to separate the roles of Chairman and CEO at the Berkshire Hathaway annual meeting in Omaha. Both positions are held by Warren Buffett. Here is the complete text of Flaherty's planned remarks: I am Peter Flaherty, Chairman of the National Legal and Policy Center. Our mission is to promote ethics in public life. Toward that end, we sponsor the Corporate Integrity Project. Our proposal would separate the roles of Chairman and CEO. I’d take it one step further and suggest that Berkshire remove itself from corporate America’s assault on American institutions and culture. I am proud to say that I am a capitalist, but it is obvious to me be that capitalism is failing to deliver for the American people. Is this meeting Woodstock for capitalists, or is it Altamont? Real wages have been falling for years. Wealth disparity has never been greater. And right outside my hotel window here in Omaha is a homeless encampment, an all-too-familiar sight in American cities. We don’t have a free economy; we have bailout capitalism. When small businesses lose money, they go out of business, but when billionaires bet wrong, government steps in to save their fortunes. Money printing by the Federal Reserve and irresponsible, debt-fueled spending by politicians — called fiscal stimulus — have artificially inflated asset values. So those with the most assets benefit the most. Wage earners get ruinous inflation. But even worse than the wealth gap is the values gap. The top 1% now seek to impose their corrupt morality upon the rest of us, whether it is in the form of Critical Race Theory, transgenderism, or the myriad of other “woke” causes that permeate corporate advertising and messaging. Why has corporate America embraced both economic and cultural radicalism? It’s pretty simple. When you have so much money, your fortune is going to come under scrutiny. The best way to insulate yourself and keep anti-business activists off your back is to embrace their causes, even if in the process you undermine the system that produces your wealth. That is what allows Mr. Buffett to advocate higher taxes, even though everyone knows they will fall mainly on the middle class, or bankroll the likes of Hillary Clinton. The Federal Reserve has offered free money to corporate America for over a decade now, creating a class of oligarchs, and greatly enhancing corporate political power. Executives now believe they can tell elected governors and legislators what to do, as we have seen in Indiana, Georgia, Texas and Florida. Last year, Coca-Cola CEO James Quincey, a British citizen, sought to kill Georgia’s new voter integrity law by making inaccurate and inflammatory statements about it. He also instituted diversity training whereby white employees were encouraged to “try to be less white.” Despite being Coke’s most celebrated shareholder, Warren Buffett has done nothing about Quincey. In fact, Mr. Buffett jumped on the “America is racist” bandwagon by signing a statement by corporate leaders suggesting that Republicans seek to restrict ballot access based on race. All this did not prevent Coke from sponsoring the Winter Olympics in China, which has never had a free election, and where minority communities are the victims of genocidal policies. And what about Apple? A large part of Apple’s supply chain is in China. The company removes apps from the app store at the request of the Chinese government because they are used by human rights activists. And of course, Apple is the world’s most successful corporate-tax minimizer, famous for routing profits through offshore tax shelters. Over at American Express, the company instituted an “Anti-Racist Initiative” for employees that teaches that capitalism is fundamentally racist and requires workers to engage in an exercise to determine whether they are “oppressor” or “oppressed.” Activism by “woke” CEOs may be reaching its limits. The people of Florida are fighting back against Disney’s Robert Chapek, who not only embraces the view that gender is a form of oppression, but that kindergarteners must be forced to confront it. Mr. Buffett has praised the brand endurance of Disney’s characters and the trust parents place in its content to be safe and appropriate for children. But now the company is adding warnings to Dumbo, Peter Pan and Aladdin about the stereotypes they allegedly portray. And poor Prince Charming has been excised for kissing Snow White QUOTE, UNQUOTE “without consent.” Warren Buffett has yet to address the crisis gripping corporate America, and I fear he never will. Yes, Berkshire may be a holding company, and Mr. Buffett may stay out of the way of managers, but what happens when these executives use their companies to wage a social revolution that most Americans don’t want? Is he not responsible? He can’t have it both ways. In this country, wealth has been admired and even celebrated because our system allows anyone to become rich. But what happens when Americans suddenly find their history and future under attack by Corporate America? The social contract that permits for such affluence will be broken. Mr. Buffett, if you are the face of capitalism, why don’t you do something to save it? Founded in 1991, NLPC promotes ethics in public life and government accountability through research, investigation, education, and legal action.

Launching The World’s First NFT Powered Audio Streaming Platform

Nomad Media Club

First of its kind Web 3 streaming platform, the Nomad Media Club opens its artist pre-registration program today in anticipation of the first holistic home for audio sharing and social networking, accessed purely through ownership of NFTs. The shared audio Social Hub platform is part of the 2023 vision of a Nomad Mediaverse with open borders and monetization opportunities for creatives exploring Web 3 opportunities. From today, musicians, podcasters and artists can pre-register to mint one of Nomad Media Club’s 5,000 unique and metaverse-ready Founders Pass NFTs as the genesis of the Nomad Mediaverse. This pass enables the owner to share and stream content, network with artists and listeners, access free community resources and expertise, as well as multiple opportunities to accrue crypto while using the platform. Designed to disrupt subscription-based streaming models and build a platform for non-established artists to benefit from digital commercial opportunities, the Social Hub employs layer two protocols that allow artists and podcasters to earn and keep 100% of their revue in crypto royalties. Crypto earned by artists and listeners can then be used for utilities and services on the platform, as well as staked or sold on third-party marketplaces, without the contractual or financial ties of a typical music streaming platform. $NMC token is the native incentive token of the Nomad Media Club, used to reward all members of the platform; the creators, the users, and the founders (owners of ‘Phase 1’ Nomad Media Club NFTs). Tokens can be used in a variety of ways on the platform from buying merchandise, e-learning resources, event tickets or music records, to tipping creators and staking to earn even more $NMC. As the NFTs are metaverse-ready, owners will be able to launch their 3D avatar model in Decentraland, with all elements available as individual trait-level items, including the Nomad avatar itself, plus the instrument, headphones, and the Nomad’s home planet. On launching Nomad Media Club, its founder, Amine Oubrahim, comments, “Our aim is to create a decentralised platform which encapsulates our core values of curiosity, freedom, and connectivity. Through the people-driven elements of Web 3, we’re building a community which celebrates our individuality and freedom of choice online, and believes firmly in the fair treatment of creatives and consumers.” To mark the take-off of the world’s first NFT powered audio sharing platform, an exclusive vinyl record containing the first four tracks uploaded to the platform by the Berlin based ethereal techno record label Steyoyoke will be launched into space, in the spirit of the Space Nomad theme of the NFT. Furthermore, a unique one of one NFT of the vinyl has also been created and will be auctioned for charity. The winning bidder will not only gain access to this unique NFT and a Founders Pass NFT, but will also own the physical vinyl record once it returns to Earth. All the money raised will be donated to the DEC’s Ukraine appeal. Now live in the decentralised streaming space, Nomad Media Club plans to continue to disrupt convention in the audio sharing and social networking world and envisions a platform inhabited by nomads across the metaverse for years into the future. #ENDS# About Nomad Media Club Nomad Media Club is the world’s first holistic home for audio-based social sharing through Web 3 technology. As a decentralised space for audio streaming, with access gained via Founders Pass NFTs, Nomad Media Club combines music and podcasts with social media, whilst enabling its community to passively earn crypto as they use the platform. The shared audio social hub is part of the 2023 vision of a Nomad Mediaverse with open borders and monetization opportunities. nomadmedia.club | Twitter | Instagram Contact Details Nomad Media Club Chloe Murray +44 20 3750 6688 chloe@fox.agency Company Website https://www.nomadmedia.club/

Shareholder Proposal Highlights Coca-Cola CEO’s Hypocrisy

National Legal & Policy Center

This morning National Legal and Policy Center will present a resolution at The Coca-Cola Company ’s annual shareholder meeting that would require the board to implement a policy to require the chair of the board of directors to be an independent member. Currently James Quincey holds the roles of both Chairman and CEO. Speaking as sponsor of the resolution was Paul Chesser, director of NLPC’s Corporate Integrity Project. His remarks as delivered follow; Extended remarks can be accessed at NLPC.org: I am Paul Chesser, director of the Corporate Integrity Project for National Legal and Policy Center. Because the company is allowing only three minutes for the presentation of proposals, my extended remarks can be found on our website, NLPC.org. On March 31, 2021, Coca-Cola Chairman and CEO James Quincey caved to progressive political activists and said about Georgia’s election integrity law, “I want to be crystal clear. The Coca-Cola Company does not support this legislation, as it makes it harder for people to vote, not easier.” However, as voter ID legislation has moved through the Parliament the last few months in Mr. Quincey’s home country, the United Kingdom, we have not heard a peep from him. Why not? Why does Mr. Quincey apply more stringent voting standards against the United States, where he receives his sizable paychecks? That’s not the only example of Mr. Quincey’s lack of awareness. Last year it was discovered also, under Mr. Quincey’s leadership, that Coca-Cola had imposed diversity training for its employees. The sessions included a course called “Confronting Racism,” which alleges that U.S. whites are socialized to believe they are “inherently superior” and suggests they “try to be less white” by being “less oppressive” and “break with white solidarity.” And during the height of the rioting across the nation during the summer of 2020, Mr. Quincey poured gasoline on the fire by embracing the violent, Marxist “Black Lives Matter” cause that destroyed many of our cities’ downtowns, including Atlanta’s. Mr. Quincey’s virtue-signaling has also addressed the topic of gender as well, with Coca-Cola boasting of its initiatives to help women, and highlighting its Equal Opportunity Policy that prohibits harassment, intimidation, retaliation, and threats against women. Those policies ring hollow, however, as Mr. Quincey totally ignored our request for him to call a special meeting of the Board to remove director Bobby Kotick, whose management of Activision Blizzard led to many credible charges of sexual harassment and assault at his company. Characterized as a “frat boy culture” by the California Dept. of Fair Employment and Housing, Mr. Kotick’s company lost several top executives, and hundreds of employees signed a petition calling for his ouster. While Mr. Quincey has bashed Americans and their alleged default racism, he has led our company in solidarity and submission to Communist China, even sponsoring the Genocide Olympics, and maintaining a factory in a province where millions of Muslim-minority Uyghurs are forced into slave labor and concentration camps. This is who moralist James Quincey believes Coca-Cola should partner with – genocidal communists, while hypocritically bashing Americans and their freedoms back home. His leadership has earned the company the mocking nickname, “Woke-a-Cola.” If any corporate resolution to separate the roles of Chairman and CEO is justified, it’s this one. END DELIVERED REMARKS The full text of NLPC’s shareholder resolution for The Coca-Cola Company can be viewed here. The text of Chesser’s extended remarks in support of the resolution can be viewed here. NLPC this week will also present shareholder resolutions on various issues at the annual shareholder meetings held by Bank of America, Wells Fargo, Goldman-Sachs, Johnson & Johnson, Boeing and Berkshire-Hathaway. Founded in 1991, NLPC promotes ethics in public life and government accountability through research, investigation, education, and legal action.

At present, the metaverse real estate has options for buying land, homes and workplaces. After hanging out in one place for a long time you may feel monotony. Moreover, if you want to earn income from it, you’ll have to find a person who wishes to buy or rent your place. Here come Wrapped Hotels to your rescue. If you want to know how? Let me elaborate. Wrapped Hotels is a digital hotel with each room having unique features. The project has a supply of 10,000 rooms. Further, each room has three categories for use. One of the categories is rooms, accounting for 95% of the total supply. The remaining 5% supply comprises lounges and reception desks. The project uses ‘The Sandbox’ metaverse for its’ virtual chain of Hotels. The project allots to each of its NFT holders to a deed of ownership for a room located in The Sandbox metaverse. Similar to a real-world hotel, users can rent their rooms and generate a passive income. Coming to the ambience of the rooms that are out of this world (pun intended). The project team has worked hard on the aesthetics of the room by providing over 200 jaw-dropping furniture models (traits). Also, the furniture well caters to the utility of the room. The other aspect is that no two rooms are alike and hence an element of surprise for the people renting a new room every time. How Do I Earn from Wrapped Hotels? This is a question worth asking once you have seen the mind-boggling design of the rooms. Consider, Wrapped Hotels a commercial real estate. To explain further, real-world commercial properties like hotels, malls, shops etc. attract people & businesses and in return generate income. The same is the case with this digital hotel. Initially, the project aims to crowdfund The Sandbox plot. The people crowdfunding the plot will get project NFT in return which will signify ownership of the room. As there will be 10,000 rooms, therefore each NFT will correspond to the 1/10,000 th part of the plots. Each owner shall have the liberty to monetise their part by organising events, showcasing an NFT collection, a virtual party etc. Other than this, the room owners will get additional 8% redistribution of secondary market sales royalties. This yield comes from the staking of rooms, and gets a multiplier in the form of a colour attribute; the colour of the walls represents the tower your room lies in. So, if you own multiple rooms in the same tower, you will get a higher return on investment. The ROI calculation doubles further if the rooms are on the same floor of a tower. Project Roadmap The Q1 of 2022 marks the start of the project. The Q1 shall commence with the community growth and exclusive raffles with NFT airdrops and prizes for whitelisted members. Upon reaching a sales milestone the room owners will get benefits. At 5% sales, 2 whitelisted members will get free NFTs room airdrops. The same giveaways will be conducted at 25%, 75% and 100% sales milestones. During the sale, the Wrapped Hotel team will launch a Merch store, organise giveaways, conduct paid promotions, and funds transfer to the community wallet. The Opensea royalties redistribution among the room owners will commence upon achieving 100% sales. The Q2 of 2022 will bring up the heat with land selection for hotel development in The Sandbox metaverse with the vote from room owners. This will be done by the mean of a community vote regarding the choice of lands where the Wrapped Hotels will be located on. Upon acquisition of the land, the French VoxEdit design team will import the rooms and buildings to give you an awesome experience. Upon full integration of the hotels, they will be ready for the grand opening featuring famous artists (think SnoopDog or Deadmau5 ) and brands ( Gucci and Carrefour ) already metaverse based. In the third quarter of 2022, the room owners will be able to lend or rent their rooms via the Wrapped Bookings app. The lounge and reception area owners get a fee upon getting a booking in the hotel. The excitement and elements of surprise won’t stop here but will continue with the development of the Wrapped ecosystem. You will get to know about them through the Wrapped Hotel website and our loyal community on Discord.
