Melaka, Malaysia–(Newsfile Corp. – November 11, 2021) –

Figure 1: DABBU Comic Created 50+ Years Ago, Digitalized On The Blockchain As NFTs

Blacwhite Legacy aims to introduce something entirely original and different from what we have known about NFTs. They are launching a collection of non-fungible tokens that are based on real-life events that took place at least 5 decades ago. The NFT market has been booming, and Reuters reported a $10.7 billion surge in sales volume within the third quarter of 2021. They also estimate that the volume will increase before the end of the year.

Details of the Dabbu NFTs

Dabbu NFTs were created based on actual events that took place between the late 1960s and early 1970s. As an NFT, Dabbu is completely unique, and is not a programmatically generated NFT project, unlike conventional NFTs. Each of the Dabbu comic artwork and subsequently the generated NFTs are individually crafted with hours of effort. All of these were initiated 50+ years ago.

Today, these self-drawn artworks are finally digitalized on the blockchain as non-fungible tokens. There are approximately 217 comics, and illustrations all themed across a maximum supply of 6425 pieces. For the entire Dabbu NFT collection, minting is not randomized, and collectors can carefully select the comic strip they would like to purchase. Dabbu is currently working on releasing a 2D animation film designed exclusively for Dabbu NFT owners. This will enable the Dabbu NFT owners to view the first comic collection cinematically. Also, Dabbu NFT is deployed on the Ethereum blockchain, and its token standard is the ERC-721.

Dabbu NFTs serve as great collectibles for all animal lovers. Each of the Dabbu artwork is based on the unaltered lives of domestic pets. The creators aim to relive your deepest and nostalgic memories with your fallen pets. Of the 217 comics and illustrations that were creatively made, there are 130 standard tokens, 53 Christmas special tokens, and 34 character tokens.

For every sale of the Dabbu NFT on the secondary market, a percentage of the royalty fee will be earmarked as a special entitlement fund for all Dabbu owners. The special entitlement fund will be used to develop Blacwhite Legacy’s merchandising project, and all Dabbu owners will enjoy profit-sharing privileges. Season 2 of the Dabbu NFT will be released in the summer of 2022, but season 1 will remain one of the most impactful projects of Blacwhite Legacy. Subsequently, the Dabbu NFT collection will be made available on OpenSea as the secondary marketplace. The floor prices will be slightly higher than the launch day minting prices, and the Blacwhite team is very serious about that.

Why Is Dabbu NFT Special?

Each of the Dabbu NFT comics and illustrations has a distinctive title description that enables collectors to have an easy reference check. The entire comic storyboards and illustrations are made visible for both owners and non-owners of the Dabbu NFT. Minting of NFT is not randomized, and collectors can carefully view each piece, choosing which of them to mint. All these things help to increase the resale value of the NFTs for owners whenever they decide to resell.

Benefits of owning a Dabbu NFT

  1. Owners become a respectable member of The Pawserby non-profit organization.

Most importantly, a percentage on each sale of Dabbu NFTs will be contributed to The Pawserby. This move will prevent the mistreatment of stray animals and their potential offspring.

  1. Academic Membership Lounge (Lifelong Access Pass A)

As experts in creating various academic materials, Blacwhite will provide all Pass A holders with free exclusive contents. Every Dabbu holder can apply for this membership pass.

  1. Business and Career Membership Lounge (Lifelong Access Pass B)

Blacwhite will offer Dabbu owners who have Pass B membership and residency in Asia with physical internships, jobs, and business opportunities. For those outside Asia, there will be virtual internships and business opportunities.

The interesting thing is that Dabbu owners are allowed to either choose Pass A or Pass B.

  1. Free Vector Artwork (Source File)

All Dabbu owners will be rewarded with a special edition source file of Dabbu artwork (in .ai format). Holders can explore the features of Vector. There will also be a contest for Dabbu owners for the best creative versions of Dabbu. Winners of the contest handpicked by Dabbu creators will win the grand prize of 1ETH.

Dabbu NFT Launch Date

The Blacwhite team is currently finalizing the date to launch the NFTs. All collectors will be given prior information regarding the official launch date once it has been decided upon. Till the launch date, Blacwhite is welcoming everyone to be part of their DABBUNATION.

Sleep interiors brand gets job offer from Peter Jones despite not securing investment in Dragons Den

Published

sleep-interiors-brand-gets-job-offer-from-peter-jones-despite-not-securing-investment-in-dragons-den

LONDON, March 29, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — Tonight on BBC1, REMY founder Abeer Iqbal, entered the Den, and despite intense grilling and no investment, left with a six-figure job offer from Peter Jones

Abeer’s pitch began with the Dragon’s keen to experience his sleep-enhancing furniture. When Steven and Peter laid on his hero  ‘The Pod’, a reinvention of the beanbag, and under REMY’s best-selling ‘The Lounger’ weighted blankets, the dragons closed their eyes and pretended to snore. Which was ironic, as despite being told he’d enter the Den around 5pm, Abeer actually went in at 9.30pm, after the dragons had been receiving pitches since early that day, which to Abeer’s own admission “wasn’t easy”. Deborah Meaden said, “This might have been a fatal mistake to put your dragons to sleep before we start the pitch” – recognising that it had been a long day.

After 10+ years working in tech, helping multi-million pound businesses grow their empire at software giants like Shopify, Abeer experienced burn-out, which led him to develop REMY. Despite Abeer telling the dragons that he left the high-pressure industry due to stress and anxiety Peter Jones still offered him a job back in the rat race with a six-figure sum (which he still hasn’t taken). 

After leaving the Den, Abeer admitted feeling the “most anxious ever” and that he “just wanted to get back to his wife for a hug”.  Abeer shared, “I didn’t sleep for days, replaying every moment in my mind. I wanted to forget it.” But it’s not all bad, as Abeer explains, “the anxiety I experienced from the Den gave me a lightbulb moment and led me to create our most popular product yet – The Hugger Pillow. I needed a hug, so I created one”. 

Abeer continues, “I returned the next day to collect my items from the studio. I bumped into a fresh-faced Peter and Toukar in the carpark, they both praised my experience, Peter once again offered me a job and Toukar asked me to call him when I start the next business.”

The global ‘sleep economy’ is booming, projected to reach a record high of $585 billion this year. But Abeer felt he was unable to communicate this, “If I could have my time again, I would focus on the industry of Rest and Sleep rather than the specific products we were trying to innovate. I don’t think I articulated to the Dragon’s the size of the business opportunity that there is with REMY. In terms of what’s next, we are moving towards becoming a household name in rest and sleep but offering products in multiple categories.”

The Dragon that seemed to understand Abeer’s passion for this industry was Sara Davies, saying “I actually fundamentally don’t agree with what I’ve heard here. What I see in front of me, yes he is great at the e-commerce side of things but he gave up a career in corporate because he was passionate about this area. And if there’s one thing I know about business it’s that you will succeed when you pursue the thing you are passionate about. I wouldn’t discourage you to give up. Keep doing it and good luck. I think you could sell anything”.

You can watch Abeer Iqbal on Dragons’ Den on BBC iPlayer.
