Verus Coin releases a new testnet version of the Public Blockchain as a Service (PBaaS) product.

RedFOX Labs is creating an NFT to start building blockchain-based games.

"NFTs offer the unique ability to transfer gameplay elements — outfits, weapons, collectibles — to other games within the same ecosystem. Rather than leaving everything trapped inside a game you no longer play, your progress carries over to additional titles.
