#NFTsummer A few weeks ago, we interviewed Xixi Huang (AW#17) in Mandarin and as the AppWorks Fellow who helps us out on the blockchain side, Xixi has a lot of ideas that are worth sharing to a bigger audience. Here's his interview in English:
西西 (Xixi) 黃士晉 is an AppWorks #17 alumni and co-founder of Rydeit. His mission is to bring the applications of blockchain to everyday life because he believes that blockchain can make the world a more fair and better place. As an AppWorks Fellow, he is responsible for guiding founders to think about blockchain and providing insights on blockchain-related investment deals. Before AppWorks, he led his previous team to build more than 10 dapps, including famous games in Taiwan such as 柚子打魚 and Shrimp.Finance. Within a month of launching these games, they had amassed over NT$ 100M (~US$ 3.5M) in transactions. His favorite pastime is traveling with his grandma, and his ultimate goal is to persuade her to buy Bitcoin!
Check out what Xixi has to say about blockchain and NFTs.
#NFTevolution
I started to learn how to write smart contracts in 2016, and learned the entire logic of ERC-20 for tokens and ERC-721 for NFTs. While I was learning about NFTs, I realized that the combination of NFTs with video games was very fitting. In video games, the treasure and equipment you collect becomes virtual assets as NFTs. And the process of using smart contracts to exchange items was very efficient on the blockchain.
At the end of 2018, I designed and created a zombie video game, integrating the concept of playing and drawing cards and packs. Within a pack were 3 NFTs with zombies on them. As a player, the more cards with zombies you collect, the higher your score, and the more tokens you can ultimately earn. From this game, I got connected to other game manufacturers and publishers who were also interested in creating virtual game assets through NFTs. We all had the same idea -- NFTs can bring more meaning and value to the players.
However at the time, many people in the market still believed that tokens and games were riddled with fraud. Since the lifecycle of video games can be short, many traditional gaming companies in the end didn’t find it worthwhile to learn how to integrate NFTs or blockchain into their games.
While the nature of NFTs hasn’t changed, the market has evolved. People’s curiosities are growing, more applications are being developed, and more creators are cropping up. I think now is the right time to start talking to companies about how to integrate NFTs or blockchain into their businesses or games.
#NFTplayground
I think there are many opportunities to start a business these days, and people who want to start one should think about coming to blockchain. Not only is there a huge opportunity but the possibilities are endless. And within blockchain, NFTs currently offer the biggest opportunity. However, it can also pose a new challenge to the team’s endurance, because while easy to obtain traction and users with NFTs, the challenge lies in retaining them.
Similar to other blockchain applications in the past few years, when a new concept is invented, it’ll be flushed with many early users. However, because the surrounding infrastructure wasn’t in place, it was difficult for founders to make valuable extensions or applications. And many of these users don’t actually care about these blockchain products and they are only trying to leverage the ecosystem to make a quick buck. Once they earn all that they can, they will move on to another project.
Right now working on NFTs, you can collect a lot of data in a short amount of time and also make some income to keep you afloat. Founders should seize this opportunity to understand these users, then modify and optimize both their products and mentality to retain them.
Since there’s no geographical restriction on blockchain, I would encourage founders to look beyond your country and region in expanding your NFT products. Also, since blockchain is closely related to finance, if you don’t have a good pricing strategy (or token economics) for your NFT products, the prices might fluctuate greatly. You need to be prepared and remind your users of the risks, otherwise you’ll ultimately get scolded!!
#NFTera
This year, I finally consider myself an official NFT collector. I pay special attention to NFTs with contemporary significance, such as Hashmasks. It signals to the public that NFTs are not just for collecting but that game mechanics can also be applied to interact with users. If we look back ten years from now I’m confident to say that the project that really brought the NFT wave in 2021 would be Hashmasks.
In addition to veteran projects like Hashmasks, other collections I care a lot about are related to Metaverse, such as The Sandbox. I believe that the world will become more and more decentralized and virtual. It is very likely that the next generation will be immersed in a virtual world like Ready Player One, so I am also very optimistic about NFTs in digital worlds like The Sandbox.
The possibilities are endless when it comes to NFTs. Right now, few NFTs are connected with our daily lives. For example, I bought a Hashmask. If I want to show it in my apartment, I might still need to print it out. In the future, how will we connect NFTs to the physical world? I believe they can be applied in many ways, including frames, wallets, cars, house deeds, leases, etc. These products in daily life can be combined with NFTs. We just haven’t opened our imagination yet. It’s hard to imagine that only 20 years ago we were having a hard time believing in the power of the internet.
The development of science and technology not only relies on infrastructure, but also the user's learning curve. The world needs to talk about blockchain more, so that everyone will gradually become familiar with it and it’ll continue to evolve.
If you're a founder working in blockchain or NFTs, welcome to apply to AppWorks >> https://bit.ly/3w0WyIl

10 Checklist Confinement Dah Setel, Mommies Boleh Pantang Dengan Tenang
(Ikut keperluan masing-masing ye☺, mummy share je persiapan mummy)
....
Continue Reading10 Checklist Confinement is Set, Mommies Can Never Be Peaceful
(According to each other's needs ☺, mummy will just share the preparation of mummy)
.
1. Set of confinement
This is the highest chart. Tired of giving birth, we need to pamper ourselves too. Like a reward for myself. This is the first thing that mummy will survey and buy.
Used to use a set of confinement Tanamera, this time mummy wants to try Nona Roguy's confinement set. The Tanamera set was 5 stars, because it's like modern mix and traditional care.
But even mummy wants to use Nona Roguy's set, these 4 Tanamera items are compulsory to include once because it is really
a) Brown Soap Tanamera - The soap smells like herbs, which is great because it's like scrub. So it's so nice to remove dirt or rough places like elbows etc. It's really great to use it first. So it's compulsory to have. Price RM16 / bar.
b) Herbal Massage Oil - Use a normal day to massage your feet if you're tired, it smells really good. (Price RM 40 +/ bottle if not wrong because I bought it during pregnancy early)
c) VCO Tanamera - This is applied to the stomach to prevent stretch mark. Apply from the beginning of the content, insyaAllah there will be no signs, the stomach is just (Price RM 40 +/ bottle if not wrong because I bought it during pregnancy early)
D) Bengkung - Get free time to buy Tanamera set first, most importantly the bengkung is cotton fabric suitable and comfortable for mummy who has cser. So this bengkung is still good, so continue using it.
Oh by the way, mummy bought the Nona Roguy set that's preloved only. It's a coincidence that he's done with confinement in the month of 4 and there's a lot of things in the set that he's useless, even using one or two items so mummy decided why not One set of Nona Roguy price is RM 280 + you know, but mummy gets it with RM78 complete set except for Herbanika Oil. As far as the external use, it won't be a problem because it's expiry date year 2021. Mummy added on to buy Nona Roguy Herbanika Oil in RM 40 +/ bottle.
* Use of herbs / herbs on your own body's fitness. Mummy usually avoids it.
.
2. Breast pump & Silicone Milk Collector
Compulsory items for breastfeeding mothers. According to experience, usually use milk collector early because of tandem feeding with baby. Even if you want to pump it early, you don't need to stress yourself because milk production is according to your baby's age. If it's a little milk yield, we'll start stressing out alone, our milk production will fall. Mummy will start saving stock for a month before going to work like that. InsyaAllah can. When Aileen used milk collector Brand Haakaa, now I want to try Autumnz Brand. The price is only RM25.
Thank God, for breast pump mummy using Brand Cimilre is quite durable, most importantly handsfree, the price is worth it and the sound is not noisy. Just chill and relax if you attend the meeting hikhik.
.
3. Mother stove & baby tuam
When Aileen used to buy baby tuam without his set, so when the tuam was a bit fussy because he had to use iron to heat up the tuam. First baby has no experience. So this time mummy bought a set straight away, it's not expensive in RM18 to get a small furnace, candle & place to heat up the aromatherapy style. So easy to heat up the baby's furnace directly.
For the mother's furnace, there are already generations at mom's house using river stone from the days of ancestors who used the same river stone.
.
4. Set of planting baby type
This is only an optional item, but it's compulsory for mummy since Aileen's time to make it easier for my husband to manage
Any brand is possible but mummy bought a set that has a pot of land because the type has to be planted is good not to give animals to dig it, so put it in the pot of mummy's land feels more secure like that (feeling)
Basically, this planting set includes a way of managing types and prayers that are needed to be read during planting types, asam jawa & sour pieces, salt, white cloth, latex gloves and apron. Complete right?
So it's easier for our husband to settle the part of the planting business, everything is complete and available. Mommies want to prepare for themselves but mummy is really lazy to prepare one by one. This set price is RM 38 including postage.
'
5. Bepanthen Cream
It's important to use nipple crack when breastfeeding, among creams that quickly fix nipple crack. Plus point, Bepanthen can be used for nappy rash kids too.
.
6. Nursing Cover, Nursing Pad & Nursing Bra
Mummy used nursing cover by Marredz since her first child. It's comfortable to breastfeed a baby, then Marredz did it together with the clutch. After using folding & keep it in the clutch bag. It's just neat. But now there are all kinds of nursing cover selling at the shop, so mommies can choose those who are interested in your heart. (Have to standby to enter the hospital bag because sometimes many people come to visit when we breastfeed our children)
Nursing pad is compulsory because the bra will always be 'wet' because the milk comes out. So need to standby hikhik 😂
.
7. Supplement – Osteomatrix Shaklee, Prenavit
Mummy doesn't sell it, but mummy uses this only because the body feels suitable with this osteomatrix. Lelagi chapter of digestion. It's tiring if it's cser but constipation. Want to cry to push in the toilet huhu. So when eating osteomatrix is easier. Because mummy's kind of lack of fruits. So looking for another alternative.
Mummy will avoid eating herbs early because she gives the baby to finish yellow first then drink a little bit.
Previt supplement for pregnant & BF mother. Only this can be swallowed. Obimin, Iberet all the others sorry throat can't swallow huhu.
.
8. Thick socks (not in the picture) - must wear, otherwise the pokpek will not wear socks hehe
.
9. Maternity Pad
Mummy didn't buy the one who tied the rope, mummy used adult pampers for the early time when blood was so hard to move after c-ser (the type of pampers brought it in the bag to the After that change to use overnight pad / wing pad / normal pad. More comfortable and easier.
.
10. Massage / Confinement Lady (CL)
For those who are in confinement, now there are many services provided to help mommies manage themselves and children.
Mummy is done early - early hire CL for mother massage and baby affairs in Terengganu later. Not long in two hours a day, mummy's package is taken for 21 days. Abstinence food, all are used to cook it hehe. Only part of my body, massage, wear a bengkung, use param & pilis and bath, mummy surrendered to CL because she doesn't want to bother mom. For the baby's service, please bathe, tuam and massage the baby together. Enough that is enough.
.
Hopefully sharing mummy helps love to prepare abstinence items 😍

Barak Obama's statement on killing of George Floyd.
As millions of people across the country take to the streets and raise their voices in response to the killing of George Floyd and the ongoing problem of unequal justice, many people have reached out asking how we can sustain momentum to bring about real change.
Ultimately, it’s going to be up to a new generation of activists to shape strategies that best fit the times. But I believe there are some basic lessons to draw from past efforts that are worth remembering.
First, the waves of protests across the country represent a genuine and legitimate frustration over a decades-long failure to reform police practices and the broader criminal justice system in the United States. The overwhelming majority of participants have been peaceful, courageous, responsible, and inspiring. They deserve our respect and support, not condemnation — something that police in cities like Camden and Flint have commendably understood.
On the other hand, the small minority of folks who’ve resorted to violence in various forms, whether out of genuine anger or mere opportunism, are putting innocent people at risk, compounding the destruction of neighborhoods that are often already short on services and investment and detracting from the larger cause. I saw an elderly black woman being interviewed today in tears because the only grocery store in her neighborhood had been trashed. If history is any guide, that store may take years to come back. So let’s not excuse violence, or rationalize it, or participate in it. If we want our criminal justice system, and American society at large, to operate on a higher ethical code, then we have to model that code ourselves.
Second, I’ve heard some suggest that the recurrent problem of racial bias in our criminal justice system proves that only protests and direct action can bring about change, and that voting and participation in electoral politics is a waste of time. I couldn’t disagree more. The point of protest is to raise public awareness, to put a spotlight on injustice, and to make the powers that be uncomfortable; in fact, throughout American history, it’s often only been in response to protests and civil disobedience that the political system has even paid attention to marginalized communities. But eventually, aspirations have to be translated into specific laws and institutional practices — and in a democracy, that only happens when we elect government officials who are responsive to our demands.
Moreover, it’s important for us to understand which levels of government have the biggest impact on our criminal justice system and police practices. When we think about politics, a lot of us focus only on the presidency and the federal government. And yes, we should be fighting to make sure that we have a president, a Congress, a U.S. Justice Department, and a federal judiciary that actually recognize the ongoing, corrosive role that racism plays in our society and want to do something about it. But the elected officials who matter most in reforming police departments and the criminal justice system work at the state and local levels.
It’s mayors and county executives that appoint most police chiefs and negotiate collective bargaining agreements with police unions. It’s district attorneys and state’s attorneys that decide whether or not to investigate and ultimately charge those involved in police misconduct. Those are all elected positions. In some places, police review boards with the power to monitor police conduct are elected as well. Unfortunately, voter turnout in these local races is usually pitifully low, especially among young people — which makes no sense given the direct impact these offices have on social justice issues, not to mention the fact that who wins and who loses those seats is often determined by just a few thousand, or even a few hundred, votes.
So the bottom line is this: if we want to bring about real change, then the choice isn’t between protest and politics. We have to do both. We have to mobilize to raise awareness, and we have to organize and cast our ballots to make sure that we elect candidates who will act on reform.
Finally, the more specific we can make demands for criminal justice and police reform, the harder it will be for elected officials to just offer lip service to the cause and then fall back into business as usual once protests have gone away. The content of that reform agenda will be different for various communities. A big city may need one set of reforms; a rural community may need another. Some agencies will require wholesale rehabilitation; others should make minor improvements. Every law enforcement agency should have clear policies, including an independent body that conducts investigations of alleged misconduct. Tailoring reforms for each community will require local activists and organizations to do their research and educate fellow citizens in their community on what strategies work best.
But as a starting point, here’s a report and toolkit developed by the Leadership Conference on Civil and Human Rights and based on the work of the Task Force on 21st Century Policing that I formed when I was in the White House. And if you’re interested in taking concrete action, we’ve also created a dedicated site at the Obama Foundation to aggregate and direct you to useful resources and organizations who’ve been fighting the good fight at the local and national levels for years.
I recognize that these past few months have been hard and dispiriting — that the fear, sorrow, uncertainty, and hardship of a pandemic have been compounded by tragic reminders that prejudice and inequality still shape so much of American life. But watching the heightened activism of young people in recent weeks, of every race and every station, makes me hopeful. If, going forward, we can channel our justifiable anger into peaceful, sustained, and effective action, then this moment can be a real turning point in our nation’s long journey to live up to our highest ideals.
Let’s get to work.
