“COZ is thrilled to collaborate with Degenz.wtf in supporting Alden Ehrenreich’s directorial debut, Shadow Brother Sunday. This partnership not only represents a new horizon for COZ’s products, but also showcases the innovative potential and scalability of NFT technology,” announced Daniel Fioravante, Marketing Director at COZ.
The auction will be powered by COZ’s revolutionary OneBand ring, a secure non-fungible item cryptographically bound to an NFT. OneBand introduces a secure hardware signing architecture with diverse applications across industries such as gaming, brand activations, financial transactions, and verification. Equipped with a secure NFC chip housing a censored BIP32 master key, OneBand supports BIP44 derivations for private keys in various blockchains. This cutting-edge technology ensures the ring’s authenticity across the entire Web 3.0 market segment, offering unprecedented security for collectibles and luxury items, eliminating the risks of forgery and theft.
“We are excited to be at the forefront of this technological revolution, providing individuals with an opportunity to witness the transformative power of blockchain technology firsthand. OneBand not only enhances security and authenticity but also opens up new avenues for developers to create innovative projects,” added Tyler Adams, CEO at COZ.
Consensus 2023
COZ unveiled its latest innovation, the OneBand ring, at Consensus 2023, a prestigious blockchain and crypto-themed event in Austin, TX. This portable, low-cost, environmentally friendly, and tamper-resistant hardware signing architecture will showcase its significant technology roll-out on Neo N3.
During Consensus 2023, COZ invited attendees to experience the power of OneBand by distributing rings so attendees could engage with the nine ecosystem project pods within the Neo booth. This interactive activation allowed OneBand holders to tap-scan their rings and acquire new traits for their commemorative Texas Horned LIZARD NFTs. This demonstration highlighted the potential of bridging a cryptographically bound physical asset into the digital world.
The MainNet-based interaction at Consensus 2023 offered a unique opportunity for attendees to explore the potential of blockchain technology. Each OneBand comes bundled with a DevKit, empowering developers to create projects using this innovative technology instantly.
P.S.
COZ, with its rich history dating back to 2017, has been at the forefront of introducing the Neo blockchain to the world. The first-ever light wallet and blockchain explorer, as well as COZ’s contributions in the form of Python and JavaScript SDKs, documentation translation, community management, and workshops across the continents, made it possible for people to experience the full potential of the Neo ecosystem.
