News linked to both this project and an event.
Bonk Guy posted on X stating that Bitcoin has risen about 3% since yesterday, while ZEC, which focuses on privacy features, has surged 16% over the same period, adding over $3 billion in market capitalization, as the privacy sector becomes a market focal point. He noted that MASK currently has a market capitalization of only about $26 million, yet it is the highest-revenue privacy coin protocol, with protocol trading volume and fees continuing to hit all-time highs, and its Solana version expected to launch within days, which is poised to further boost usage, trading volume, and fee revenue. According to DeFiLlama data, MASK's revenue exceeds the combined revenue of the next 10 privacy protocols. Bonk Guy believes that MASK combines a real product, genuine user demand, growing adoption, and potential catalysts, and remains severely undervalued by the market.
Renaiss, a real-world collectibles liquidity infrastructure, announced the successful completion of a $1.5 million seed funding round, led by YZi Labs, with participation from Gate Ventures, Hash Global, XIN Family, and Redline Labs. Angel investors include Mask Network, Far East Group, Logoman, Hoopi, and Legit App. Built on BNB Chain, Renaiss aims to connect third-party vaults, card shops, and custodial nodes via its Renaiss Vault OS, while Renaiss.XYZ serves as the application layer enabling users to access the on-chain collectibles market. Renaiss provides verifiable custody, standardized settlement, and on-chain liquidity for physical collectibles—eliminating friction in verification, custody, pricing, and cross-border transactions. This allows custodially verified collectibles to undergo ownership transfers on-chain and circulate globally in a trustless, permissionless manner. The funds will be used to expand the vault network, strengthen product development and integration with the Renaiss SDK ecosystem, broaden the range of supported collectible categories, drive global market expansion, and support infrastructure development for DeFi integration and AI Agents. Notably, Renaiss has been selected as a project in the third cohort of YZi Labs’ EASY Residency incubation program.
