Focus Tree: Cultivating Screen Wellness 🌳

Ever feel like your phone has a mind of its own, keeping you hooked when you should be focusing elsewhere? Enter Focus Tree, the shield against digital distractions. Let's explore the features this app brings to nurture attention:

Focus Sessions 🚀
Embark on focus sessions, ranging from 10 to 120 minutes, restricting phone usage. On iOS, internet access gets the silent treatment; on Android, an overlay takes center stage. Fail a session by exiting for more than 5 seconds or giving up. Soon, group focus sessions will join the party.
Time Tracker ⏰
Get real about screen time with the Time Tracker. See how much time users devote to their devices and watch progress unfold. Visualize daily focus achievements and reclaim lost time.
Wallet 💼
Manage funds securely with the self-custodial wallet, integrating biometric hardware for a seamless experience. The app is bridging the gap for those yet to dive into self-hosted wallets, making DeFi and self-sovereign finance accessible.
Gameplay & Community Gardens
Not just about productivity; the app is crafting an engaging ecosystem. Join digital spaces called Gardens, decorate with Tiles earned from focusing, and make it a group effort. Gardens become a canvas for shared creativity and collaboration.
Streaks, Leaderboards, and Focus Points 🏆
Earn rewards with Streaks for daily focus, pause or regain at convenience. Leaderboards (coming Q1 2024) pit community gardens against each other, fostering friendly competition. Accumulate non-transferable Focus Points based on streaks, focus duration, and tree level for unique rewards.
Water (= Stamina) 💧
Keep the tree hydrated by focusing. Water levels determine stamina; waiting a day or strengthening the tree replenishes it. A balanced system to earn points without a flood.

In the forest of digital well-being, Focus Tree stands tall, ready to help users reclaim attention and unlock a world of rewards.

Find Focus Tree on Lens Protocol @lens/focustree_app. Oh, and btw, they're planning to launch a dedicated Focus Tree garden for one @orbapp community 👀

Building Bridges with Tech 🛠

Born to Connect: Huddle01 started as an idea at the ETHGlobal Hackathon in 2019 and has evolved into a powerhouse of decentralised communication. From a Video Meeting dApp to Communication Infrastructure, they're on a mission to build the first dRTC Network.
Mission & Vision: Imagine connecting 100 million people over Huddle01 by 2026. That's the goal - decentralised communication accessible to all.

Essential Features Galore 💼

Chat, Share, Record: Engage with peers in the main room or via direct messages. Share files, screen share without quality loss, and record your meetings for future reference.
Moderation Powers: Host controls for moderation, virtual backgrounds, default avatars, keyboard shortcuts - they've got it all.

Reach More, Stream More 🌐

Multistreaming Magic: Reach a wider audience by simultaneously streaming via Youtube, Twitch, and Livepeer.
Live Chat: Engage with your viewers in real-time, and moderate your livestream as you please.
Token-Gating for Livestreams: Just like meetings, you can token-gate your livestreams using NFTs, tokens, and POAPs.

From Lazy Days to Productive Days

So, why settle for ordinary when you can "Huddle01"it? It's time to redefine how we connect, communicate, and collaborate.

And guess what's in the pipeline? Soon, we're merging Trust Me Bro Spaces with Huddle01. That means we'll have video and recording features in one go, making things smoother for Yakuza

Decentralised AI. Solution? 🤖

There's been a storm of activity in the AI tech scene over the last few days. But maybe there's a solution for it...

The Dfinity Foundation, a nonprofit research and development organization, together with Singularitynet, a decentralised AI marketplace are teaming up to blend the Internet Computer blockchain with Singularitynet's marketplace.

This collaboration marks a significant shift in decentralised AI, tackling issues of transparency and accessibility. Here's the lowdown 👇🏽

What's Going On?

Dfinity Foundation and Singularitynet Collaboration: Dfinity Foundation and Singularitynet are teaming up to blend the Internet Computer blockchain with Singularitynet's marketplace.
The goal is to revolutionise decentralised artificial intelligence (AI), addressing challenges in transparency and accessibility linked to large language models.

What's the Background?

AI Infrastructure Enhancement: This collaboration aims to enhance decentralised AI infrastructure by combining the Internet Computer blockchain with the Singularitynet framework.
This move responds to challenges in AI tools and services, particularly around transparency in training data and trust in output results.

Why It Matters?

Decentralised AI Transformation: The initiative aims to provide AI and Web3 developers with access to a blockchain capable of running genuine decentralised artificial intelligence.
This ensures open-source, tamper-proof training parameters and inputs within smart contracts on the Internet Computer Protocol.
The collaboration fosters innovation, accelerates project development, and creates a transparent marketplace for AI service providers and blockchain application developers.

Your turn! What's your take on the decentralised AI wave sparked by Dfinity Foundation and Singularitynet?
