Pionauts, one of the most unique and groundbreaking NFT art collections, is set to launch on 28 April 2022, announced Johan Van Asperen Vervenne, the founder and visionary behind the team that created the series.

Today, Pionauts is the world's first company to create large-scale photorealistic appearances of historical pioneers, such as Leonardo Da Vinci, Nefertiti, Aristotle, Cleopatra, and so many more.

"Pionauts began as an idea for an NFT collection. Most NFT collections have about six different backgrounds," Johan said. "My team used 84 different 17th and 18th-century paintings to create many of the backgrounds used."

The 150 original pioneers selected by Van Asperen Vervenne and his team mostly lived before the invention of the camera. The team behind Pionauts are artificial intelligence, 2D and 3D graphic design specialists from nine countries.

“People of all ages are fascinated by pioneers that lived before the invention of the camera,” Van Asperen Vervenne said. “Before Pionauts came to life, we only saw old paintings and could only imagine what they looked like when they were alive.”

Van Asperen Vervenne felt it was time to bring them back to life today and go beyond the “stories we read about what they accomplished and go beyond imagining what stories they would tell about themselves if they were alive today.”

With that in mind, Van Asperen Vervenne and his team brought to life “the best-known pioneers with the latest 3D and artificial intelligence (AI) technology.” Applying Deep Learning technology and months of manual retouching, a collection of 8,500 unique variations was created with modified characteristics such as age, facial features and expressions.

Voting utility

Each of these NFTs comes with voting powers that grant holders of the breath-taking digital art collectibles the right to voice how they want the Pionauts comic stories told. They also come with copyrights and many of the photorealistic pioneers' portraits are already trademarked, said Van Asperen Vervenne.

“These portrait trademarks safeguard against infringement of copyrights increasing the value of the Pionauts project,” he added. “Pionauts owns the copyrights for commercial and non-commercial use.

 Royalty income

The Pionauts team sees a positive future in collaborating in various entertainment, marketing and educational projects. Johan and his team's goal is to create more 3D models of pioneer's faces and explore collaborations with Metaverse games, brands, educational- and the movie industry.

“Our goal for Pionauts NFT holders is to share in our future success as the Pionauts brand expands. Pionauts will share 25% of its royalty income with its NFT holders that are KYC (Know Your Customers) compliant,” Johan said.

Pionauts allows all Pionaut NFT holders to exclusively co-create new storylines about breathtaking interplanetary journeys and have a voice in choosing where the story goes next, Johan said.

"The ambition of the Pionauts team is to create a series of pilots, blockbuster movies, similarly as Pixar's Toy Story franchise and the Marvel cinematic universe," Van Asperen Vervenne said. "Pionauts has some very exciting announcements in the pipeline," he said.

The Pionaut's inception

Van Asperen Vervenne one day became intrigued by musician George Aquilla Hardy's depiction of what the first US President would look like today. But Johan went further. He dove into the topic of facial recognition and researched facial reconstruction techniques for digital illustration.

After he concluded his investigation, he decided to see if he could recreate the faces of a few famous people throughout history. After forming a dedicated team of international designers, he looked at historic pioneers regarded as some of the world's greatest minds.

With the help of some of the world's best artificial intelligence (AI) experts, including the founding father of the AI Gan source code, Johan added movements to the face of the ancient Greek philosopher Aristotle from the image of a statue representing his likeness.

Patience paid off, and it enticed Johan and his colleagues to continue with more restorations. They chose several more famous personalities of the past, that also include Socrates, Beethoven and William Shakespeare.

After many hours of meticulous attention to detail, the talented group transformed the faces of several of the most renowned pioneers worldwide into a photorealistic likeness of them thanks to groundbreaking AI. And then the decision to make them Pionauts.

"Earth is explored by the greatest minds in history. Imagine the progress we can make if these brilliant people help us explore space?" Johan asked. "And thus, the pioneers from history became Pionauts."

Utility

Each of the 8,500 NFTs comes with great utility. They come with voting rights on comic stories with the pioneer characters, their stories, the possibility for holders to input their stories, royalties from their sales, and future movie deals from which we like each NFT holder to profit.

“The goal is that holders of any Pionauts NFT will enjoy passive income as the Pionauts brand expands,” and “This 'army' of thousands of Pionauts NFT holders will undoubtedly help signal, prevent and protect Pionauts portrait rights for the benefit of all those invested in the collection.”

The unique Pionauts NFT collection launches on 28 April 2022

Trading cryptocurrencies and turning your Bitcoins into money requires the ability to read crypto charts. For making good crypto trades you need to know Dow Theory and Japanese candlestick charts. Every historical price, volume, and time interval is available in cryptography. A chart is used to observe investment opportunities in a digital currency based on its past price movements. By reading cryptocurrency charts, investors can identify market trends and predict the future price movements of an asset. Cryptocurrency Chart Patterns Only a few chart patterns have stood the test of time. There is no “proven” chart pattern that works better than another, unlike less subjective analytical tools. Following are the chart patterns available. Price Channels  Create a series of highs and lows by creating two ascending or descending parallel lines. Prices tend to bounce between these levels of support (lower) and resistance (higher). While most traders buy lower and sell higher, breakouts and breakdowns can be influential. Ascending & Descending Triangle  One horizontal line connects highs or lows, and a second sloped line connects rising highs or falling lows. In a right triangle, the price tends to break out or break down from the horizontal line in the direction of the sloped line. Head & Shoulders  The Head and Shoulders chart pattern is characterized by a temporary high or low, followed by a big move higher or lower, followed by an equal move higher or lower. It looks like a head with two shoulders that are either upside down (bullish) or right-side-up (bearish). Triple & Double Top & Bottom  It is called a triple or double top and bottom chart pattern when the market bounces off the same resistance or support level two or three times in a row. Bullish signals are considered double bottoms, while bearish signals are considered double tops. Double and triple patterns both indicate that prices are about to reverse directions. Rising Wedge & Falling Wedge  The slopes of the upper and lower lines of rising and falling wedges are the same (although they still converge). Rising and falling wedges are reversal patterns unlike ascending and descending triangles. Rising wedges are bearish while falling wedges are bullish. Candlestick Chart In cryptocurrency candlestick charts, time is shown on the horizontal axis, while private data is shown on the vertical axis. It’s important to note that candlesticks show whether the price movement of a market was positive or negative, and to what degree. Candlesticks consist of a body and wicks. The body of each candlestick represents the opening and closing prices, while the top wick represents how high or low the price of a cryptocurrency was during that period. Candlesticks provide users with a great deal of information through their simple structure. Candlestick patterns, for example, can be used to identify potential trend reversals. The bullish and bearish candlestick patterns should be recognized by cryptocurrency traders. Technical Analysis Statistical analysis refers to the study of trends gathered over time to determine how supply and demand affect a particular asset’s future price. Crypto market charts can help investors make informed decisions by letting them know when bullish and bearish movements will end. Bulls, the buyers of an asset, push the price up through bullish movements. It is the downward price movement caused by sellers or the bears. By analyzing price trends and patterns on charts, traders can find trading opportunities. Although crypto charts help monitor market movements, there are some caveats. To better understand technical analysis, one must be aware of the Dow Theory. Here are some key ideas: At the time of pricing, the market considers everything. Existing, prior, and upcoming details have already been accounted for in current asset prices. The crypto market is impacted by a number of variables, including current, past, and future demands and any regulations that may impact the market. Prices do not move at random. Most people follow trends, whether they are long-term or short-term. Analysts focus on the price of a coin rather than every single variable that influences its value.   Dow Theory rests on six fundamental tenets: Markets move in three directions A market’s primary movement is called its primary movement. Market trends can last anywhere from a year to several years. They can be bullish or bearish. Medium swings refer to the second or intermediate movement of a market. A medium time frame is between ten days and three months. A medium swing is based on the primary price change.  A short swing is a minor movement of the market. It is short-term speculation. Market trends have three phases During the accumulation phase, investors buy and sell the coin against the general perception of the market. In the public participation phase, also known as the absorption phase, the rest of the market follows knowledgeable investors. After the absorption … Continued
