DeSo-Backed SocialFi App Focus raises $20 Million in under 24 hours

Deso

Key Takeaways Focus, the revolutionary new decentralized SocialFi app, raised $20 million in less than 24 hours Focus rivals subscription platforms like OnlyFans and Patreon, a multi-billion-dollar industry The Social Airdrop offers users the chance to earn upwards of $100,000 in $FOCUS tokens Focus is a brand new SocialFi app from DeSo, the team that raised $200M from Coinbase, Sequoia, a16z, Social Capital, and other top funds. It aims to disrupt the trillion-dollar social media market and creator economy by introducing groundbreaking features rivaling X, Onlyfans, and Patreon. The TAM for this market is significant, with OnlyFans processing roughly $8 Billion in 2023 and charging 20% per transaction. These high fees significantly reduce creator profits, highlighting the need for a more equitable solution. Focus combines the best of Onlyfans, Patreon, X, and other billion-dollar social platforms into one app. It’s built on the DeSo blockchain and powered by permissionless crypto-native monetization features that are not possible in web2. Under the leadership of crypto-veteran Nader Al-Naji, Focus is fully decentralized, with no corporate entity behind it. Just coins and code: “Decentralized social media is facing the same skepticism Bitcoin did at its inception. Critics believe it can’t challenge major players, won’t scale, and faces a ban if it does. Ask yourself: do you want to be on the side that’s short-sighted and left behind or embrace optimism and innovation? This is your chance to be part of a monumental technological shift.” – Nader Al-Naji, Founder of DeSo Focus allows new ways for users to make money with anonymous crypto-enabled monetization mechanics that include paid reposts (decentralized ads), paid messages, unlockable content, subscriptions, and Creator Coins, allowing users to invest directly in other creators’ revenue streams. Thanks to the DeSo blockchain and its Revolution Proof of Stake system, Focus users can transact in a variety of cryptocurrencies, including USDC, Bitcoin, Ethereum, Solana, DeSo, and Focus tokens, all for under 1/10,000th of a cent per transaction, including for cross-chain assets. DeSo also supports the storage of content directly on-chain for 1/10,000th of a cent per post, which is much less than Solana at ~$1 per post or Ethereum at ~$100+ per post. This means that Focus can pioneer innovative monetization and content mechanics that are not possible with older high-fee blockchains or slower and heavily censored fiat payment rails. DeSo Founder Nader Al-Naji continues: “From the beginning, our strategy was clear: lay down a scalable, decentralized groundwork, then roll out applications that truly showcase the unparalleled advantages and power of DeSo.” Focus allows users to reserve tokens akin to staking, with the flexibility to choose any supported currency via HeroSwap, including BTC, ETH, SOL, USDC, and DESO. Early adopters who reserve tokens during the first week (January 11th to January 18th) will receive a 100% bonus in $FOCUS tokens. Unlike traditional social networks, Focus democratizes distribution by distributing 100% of all fees directly to the holders of $FOCUS tokens. This contradicts the business model users see with social platforms today, where a small group of venture capitalists and shareholders capture all the value. To further incentivize user participation, Focus is introducing a viral airdrop model, The Social Airdrop, which rewards users based on their influence on external social networks, distributing $FOCUS tokens commensurate with their reach. This new airdrop model means someone with a thousand views per post would get a joining bonus of about $100 in $FOCUS tokens. In contrast, someone with millions of views per post, like Elon Musk, would get a bonus of upwards of $100,000 in $FOCUS tokens. The Social Airdrop also includes a referral program allowing users to refer others to the platform and in return receive 10% of the referee’s joining bonus and 5% of all revenues the referee generates on the platform. FOCUS plans to support X, Instagram, YouTube, TikTok, Twitch, select email domains, DeSo, and OnlyFans at launch. To reserve tokens and earn a 100% bonus in $FOCUS, prospective users should visit Focus.xyz and reserve their funds before 11:11 am EST on January 18th. The bonus will drop every week until the app goes live. About Deso DeSo is the first and only censorship-resistant Layer-1 blockchain purpose-built to power storage-heavy apps and scale decentralized social networks for mass adoption. Their mission is to decentralize social media like Bitcoin and Ethereum are decentralizing finance. DeSo has gained significant adoption and boasts 2.6M users (wallets) and 93M transactions. With Focus, DeSo aims to usher in a new age in crypto led by cutting-edge consumer apps that scale to billions of users. Contact Details Deso Ed Moss Ed@deso.org

Protecting Older California Homes from Earthquake Damage – biggest program expansion ever

YourUpdateTV

According to the California Earthquake Authority (which supports and oversees CRMP with Cal OES), there are more than 1.2 million houses in California built before 1980 in high-hazard areas that are vulnerable to collapse or destruction by sliding off the foundation during a strong earthquake. Recently, Chief Mitigation Officer at the California Earthquake Authority, Janiele Maffei, conducted a satellite media tour to spread critical awareness about the importance of seismic retrofits and share resources to help California Homeowners protect their home from earthquake damage. A video accompanying this announcement is available at: https://youtu.be/bOtBz633hZk On January 10, the California Residential Mitigation Program (CRMP) kicked off the 2024 Earthquake Brace + Bolt (EBB) open registration, during which California homeowners can apply for up to $3,000 in grants to retrofit qualifying pre-1980 homes. Supporting this effort will be an education campaign focused on ZIP Code eligible areas, which aims to spread critical awareness about the grant period, earthquake safety, and residential mitigation including Eureka, San Francisco, Salinas/Monterey, Santa Barbara, Los Angeles, Palm Springs and San Diego. Registration for the 2024 EBB grant program continues through February 21st. Overall, EBB hopes to provide funding for approximately 6,000 seismic retrofits this year. EBB grants help offset the cost of seismic retrofits that brace the crawl space walls of older homes, when present, and bolt houses to their foundations, making them less vulnerable to earthquake damage. In the ten years since it began, the EBB program has assisted more than 23,000 homeowners in strengthening their homes against earthquake damage. The EBB grant program is administered by the California Residential Mitigation Program ( CRMP ) a Joint Powers Authority between the California Earthquake Authority ( CEA ) and the California Governor’s Office of Emergency Services ( Cal OES ). Homeowners in 815 high-risk ZIP Codes can apply for grants of up to $3,000 to offset the cost of a seismic retrofit that can help lessen the potential for damage during an earthquake. In addition, income-eligible homeowners can qualify for supplemental grants – amounts vary depending on the region and type of retrofit completed. These supplemental grants may cover up to 100 percent of the cost of a seismic retrofit. Seismic retrofits covered by the EBB program are completed by FEMA trained contractors and can help reduce damage to a house in the event of a destructive earthquake by bracing existing cripple walls in the crawl space with plywood and bolting the home to its foundation. Since 2014, more than 23,000 EBB retrofits have been completed. The new EBB registration period coincides with the 30th Anniversary of the Northridge Earthquake, a damaging 6.7 magnitude earthquake that struck early in the morning of January 17th, 1994. It caused an estimated $20 billion dollars in damages and 57 deaths and led to the State legislature creating the CEA in 1996. To learn more about the retrofit grant visit: EarthquakeBraceBolt.com About Janiele Maffei: Janiele Maffei was hired as CEA’s first Chief Mitigation Officer in May 2011 and became Director of Research in 2015. Currently her responsibilities include managing the California Residential Mitigation Program (CRMP) and that program’s first retrofit incentive program-- Earthquake Brace and Bolt (EBB); various research projects that will benefit the strategic insurance, mitigation, and education goals of CEA; and other mitigation efforts that will benefit both policyholders and California homeowners. Thanks to EBB, more than 22,000 California homeowners have completed a code-compliant seismic retrofit. Janiele and her team often hear the sentiment from homeowners that they can now sleep better at night. Janiele is proud to be part of the effort helping a growing number of California families live in more resilient housing. Janiele attended University of California Berkeley, earning an AB in Architecture and an MS in engineering. Following that, she obtained her civil and structural engineering licenses. In 2017, Janiele was inducted into the Distinguished Alumni Association of the Civil and Environmental Engineering Department at UC Berkeley. Prior to joining CEA, she served as the President of the Northern California Chapter of the Earthquake Engineering Research Institute (EERI). She then joined the National board of EERI as Secretary Treasurer for six years, ending in 2017. In 2018 she became Vice President of the Structural Engineers Association of Northern California and assumed the role of President in 2019. Additionally, Janiele regularly participates in the EERI Visiting Professionals Program, speaking at California colleges and universities, encouraging students to consider careers in earthquake engineering. Janiele enjoys theater, travel, family, and music. Her international travel has exposed her to the rich diversity of our planet, and she considers herself fortunate to have had the privilege of visiting over 45 countries. About Earthquake Brace + Bolt (EBB) Established by the California Residential Mitigation Program, EBB offers up to $3,000 to help California homeowners retrofit their house to reduce potential damage from earthquakes. A residential seismic retrofit makes a house more resistant to earthquake activity, such as ground shaking and soil failure, by bolting the house to its foundation and adding bracing around the perimeter of the crawl space.

News Release

Linda Haley’s Arrival of the Light Beings: A Guidebook to Understanding Cosmic Changes

Prodigy Press Wire

Linda Haley, the founder and executive director of The Reiki Center, fulfills her spiritual mission of helping humanity prepare for the impending metaphysical shift in her highly-acclaimed book, Arrival of the Light Beings: How to Prepare for the Shift and Contact with Extraterrestrials. Albeit presented as fiction, Arrival of the Light Beings mirrors Linda's authentic experiences. She offers readers an intimate look into her spiritual awakening and acceptance of the crucial role she has been urged to play in Earth's evolution. Linda's extraordinary journey began in 2000 when she was contacted by an ambassador from the fifth dimension named Avratar who communicated a critical message. Earth was in trouble and humans must understand that extraterrestrial assistance was coming to help. The novel serves as a guide for individuals to prepare for the inevitable cosmic shift, as well as the appearance of non-human beings. Plagued by childhood encounters with ghosts and otherworldly entities that instilled fear within her psyche, Linda promised herself to steer clear of anything extraterrestrial. She eventually accepted her mission to advocate for a deeper understanding of spiritual and sometimes uncomfortable truths. Linda's calling is to inform humanity of the importance of connecting with a deeper meaning and purpose in their lives. This helps them prepare for the imminent arrival of beings from distant galaxies. "I kept asking, 'Why me?' Avratar's response was, 'Because you understand fear.' The fears of my childhood experiences, ironically, became the key to understanding all these happenings and helping others navigate the upcoming changes," the author shared. Now serving as a bridge between the Earthly realm and the cosmic dimensions, Linda wrote Arrival of the Light Beings to emphasize that sightings and contact can no longer be dismissed as mere fabrications. Humanity is on the brink of a significant shift, and the light beings will become humanity's guides along the way. The shift Linda talks about pertains to the massive realignment of the physical and metaphysical planes to help humans reach higher levels of consciousness. Many people refer to this as the transition from third-dimensional consciousness to fifth-dimensional awareness. This transformation brings increased energy that manifests on multiple levels. On a personal level, individuals would transition their focus from the tangible (i.e., money, power, etc.) to the spiritual (i.e., finding meaning and purpose). Those affected by the shift may become more compassionate and intuitive and sensitive to the messages of angels or other cosmic entities. Beyond the individual, the shift is already triggering societal changes, impacting the political, religious, financial, social, corporate, and education sectors. Earth-centered changes like rising sea levels, melting glaciers, and extreme weather patterns, as well as galactic changes like coronal mass ejections and solar flares, can also be viewed as signals of the impending shift in the cosmos. Following these manifestations, Linda’s book emphasizes the benefits of preparing emotionally and spiritually for this revolutionary transition. "Instead of dwelling on our fears about the challenges Earth faces or the impending arrival of extraterrestrial beings, we should empower ourselves to make a positive impact. The most important job we have is just to prepare our own hearts. That means to be more sensitive, more compassionate, more aware, more mindful," the author asserted. Essentially, Arrival of the Light Beings is a call to action, encouraging humanity to widen their perspectives and view the inevitable cosmic shift with mindfulness, discernment, and an open heart.
