Why Nyoki Club is Here to Shake the World of NFTs

Nyoki Club

Nyoki club is one of the most sought-after NFT projects since the surge of NFTs in the last year. One might wonder what this project offers to stand out from the masses of NFT projects that are released daily. First of all, Nyoki Cub consists of 8888 individual 3D characters all of which are unique and randomly generated. Each Nyoki is one-of-a-kind artwork and will be available to be minted on the Ethereum Blockchain from April 10th. What makes the project truly unique is that these NFTs will not only exist in digital form but also be available as 3D printed models that will be accessible worldwide. This combination of Web3 technology and real-life collectibles is one of the reasons for Nyoki club to have more than 74 thousand followers way ahead of its release date. The team behind Nyoki club knows how to manage a community from the start and lets people enter their whitelist by exclusive and rare raffles and by being active and helpful in their community discord. Their following is not only measured in numbers but can also be actively witnessed in the brimming discord channel where more than 50000 people actively vote on governance questions. Nyoki Club gained fame in the NFT space quickly by partnering up with well-known projects like Hapebeast, Llamaverse, and Rarity Sniper just to name a few. The roadmap of Nyoki Club will start with the creation of the first-ever fully 3D printed model and will set out to create more after the minting phase has ended and the collection is available to trade. Partnerships with more artists to create Nyokis in the future are only one of the many stations planned for the future. There is a lot of trust in the community towards the founders and the partnerships and positive publicity they have made until now speak for themselves. The team behind Nyoki Club will use these partnerships to release an NFT collection that will reach new heights in terms of value and ingenuity.

The Grave Wealth Gap Between Celebrities And You

PartyCasino Canada

There’s no secret that global superstars make millions of dollars in their lifetime and continue to accumulate wealth even beyond the grave. But did you ever contemplate just how much that may be? A new blog post by PartyCasino Canada reveals the highest earning celebrities during the last year and the last decade through insightful statistics divided by earnings per month, day, and even down to the second. The blog reveals that the King of Pop, Michael Jackson, who held number one for the past ten years was pushed down to a third place and there’s a new king in town: Roald Dahl, beloved author, poet and screenwriter, nipped the spot instead. While the list is a mix between musicians and authors, the majority of places are held by musical superstars where Prince, Michael Jackson, Bing Crosby and Elvis Presley are lingering around the top. The trend where musicians are selling their entire music catalogue to publishing companies is an added factor to why this profession in particular has turned into a multibillion-dollar machine that investors worldwide can’t wait to get their hands on. While revenue from touring turned almost non-existent over the last two years, Shakira, Bob Dylan, Stevie Nicks, and David Bowie took the opportunity to hand over their music rights in return for a hefty sum of money. Owning the publishing rights means a steady cashflow even during tumultuous times. The blog post shows that money doesn't slow after the passing of a superstar, in some cases it even increases. In light of the mind-boggling money that is spent to own the rights to the most legendary musicians on the planet, this list gives you a hint as to why publishing houses are enticed to pay out hefty sums in return for the rights in perpetuity. In addition to ranking the highest earning stars, PartyCasino has also created a calculator where you can compare your earnings with the mentioned celebrities. Type in your monthly wage and see how many minutes, or perhaps seconds, it will take them to make the same money - all from beyond the grave.

Houston Mother Gives ‘Inside Look’ at Staying Connected to the Internet During the Pandemic

Comcast Houston

HOUSTON, TX — A Houston mother is one of the millions of low-income Americans who will now be able to get free, fast and reliable Comcast broadband service, thanks to the new Affordable Connectivity Program (ACP) — a federally-funded program that gives eligible households a credit of up to $30 per month towards the cost of broadband service. “When the pandemic first happened, that’s when everything got pretty chaotic,” Jamila Byrd, a Houston mother of two, said. “You don’t really think about how important the Internet is until you don’t have it anymore.” According to the White House, an estimated 42 million Americans are in the same or similar situation as Byrd; they don’t have access to high-speed internet at home. The hardship, often referred to as the “digital divide”, was exacerbated by the pandemic when families had to virtually learn and work from home. “We had to go to friends’ houses, my sister’s house, so my kids could do assignments,” Byrd said. “It takes away a lot of time from us being together as a family. It’s tough for everybody.” The goal of the program is to help low-income households connect and stay connected to high-speed internet for work, school, healthcare and more. Eligible households that enroll in the program get up to a $30 monthly credit ($75 for eligible Tribal land households). Customers can use the monthly credit towards Xfinity Internet and mobile services. Eligible households are those that qualify for programs like the Federal Pell Grant, National School Lunch Program, SNAP, Medicaid, housing assistance and other government programs. “The Affordable Connectivity Program is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity that Comcast is proud to actively support,” Houston Regional Vice President of External Affairs Toni Beck said. “As a company and society, it is imperative that we work together to help people connect to the transformative power of the internet both at home and on the go. At Comcast, we’re doing just that.” In response to the ACP, Comcast introduced a new plan called Internet Essentials Plus that offers twice the download speed – up to 100 Mbps – of the traditional Internet Essentials service, a cable modem and a WiFi router for $29.95 per month. With the $30 ACP credit, Internet Essentials Plus is effectively free for qualifying families. Customers who are looking for home internet and top-rated mobile service can now have both at an affordable price. Internet Essentials customers paying $9.95 per month can add one line of Unlimited Xfinity Mobile ($45 per month) for $24.95 per after applying the ACP credit. In February, during a White House event, Vice President Kamala Harris, Federal Communications Commission Chairwoman Jessica Rosenworcel, and Senior Advisor Mitch Landrieu announced more than 10 million households are enrolled in the Affordable Connectivity Program, the nation’s largest-ever broadband affordability program. Byrd was recently approved for the ACP credit. “I’m grateful for this program,” Byrd said. “If I had to use one word to describe our household environment right now, it’s unity. It brings us together. It helps us to be able to do the things that we need to do, and then we have more time for family time.” To learn more about the ACP, eligibility or to apply go to Xfinity.com/acp or call 1-844-389-4681. About Comcast Corporation Comcast Corporation (Nasdaq: CMCSA) is a global media and technology company that connects people to moments that matter. We are principally focused on broadband, aggregation, and streaming with 57 million customer relationships across the United States and Europe.

Petition Urging Tom Brady's Return a Huge Success After Brady's Initial Retirement

Brady in 2022

Petition by the Group “Brady in 2022” Gave Tom & Gisele Brady the Only Simple Resolution That Would Allow Brady to Continue Playing While at the Same Time Making Gisele Very Happy Only by reading this emotionally-charged petition can anyone clearly understand the depth of Brady’s decision to return to the NFL with Gisele’s blessing A petition, posted at www.bradyin2022.com on February 27 th (2 weeks before Tom Brady un-retired), as an " Open Letter to Tom & Gisele Brady” may likely have influenced the NFL star’s return to the game, according to the petition creator, Stephen Marks. The petition had been sent to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers PR Department who were very excited about it and promised to pass it along to Brady. The petition, expressing Marks’ and many other NFL fans opinions on the situation, first explained to Gisele that she was “ 100% correct that Tom had been unfair to her all these years as an absentee husband and father by keeping his football life so strongly separated from his family life. ” The petition explained to Tom how he can now easily share his football life with his family life, giving him a closer and happier family while at the same time continuing to play football at its highest level. The petition urged Brady to take Gisele with him on road games to finally share that special part of his football life that he had never before shared; the love and comradery with his teammates and coaches during practices as much as during games; while at the same time spending every single night with Gisele. To share that sheer joy of his football life will make Tom a better husband. Same for his kids. who can easily fly to his road games on Friday after school and also share that same joy of Tom’s football life on the weekends. A joy that they too have never before experienced, making his family closer than they've ever been. The petition also explained to Brady how by retiring, he would be “ haunted every day for the rest of his life at how his last game against the Rams ended. How after performing his Brady magic once again, bringing his team from a 24 point deficit in the closing minutes of the 3 rd quarter to tie the game with 40 seconds left in the game, he nonetheless never had the chance to touch the ball again, which was just plain wrong. His defensive teammates and coaches want so very badly to make it up to Tom for their horrible coverage of Cooper Kupp, and the horrible play-call blitz that left Kupp so wide open, ” leading the Rams and not the Buccaneers to become Super Bowl champions. The petition closed by telling Brady that “ the pain he is still feeling over retiring is also being felt by all his teammates, coaches and fans.” Since the reason Brady gave for his un-retiring mirrored what was written in the petition, either Brady was indeed influenced by the petition, or the petition’s writer, Stephen Marks of south Florida, knew after Brady’s retirement announcement exactly how to resolve the problems between Tom and Gisele before Tom & Gisele figured it out themselves. Must See Petition at: www.bradyin2022.com Petition creator Stephen Marks, is a nationally-known political consultant; authored the highly-acclaimed book “ Confessions of a Political Hitman (Sourcebooks); has written about political corruption for Penthouse Magazine (yes, folks really read it for the articles); and has written and produced successful SuperPac ads for presidential elections. Marks has also written music for the nationally syndicated “ Dr. Demento ” program. With extensive media experience appearing on over 100 TV and radio programs, including CNN, FOX News, and PBS, Marks is available for interviews and can be contacted at (305) 900-7747.
