This past Monday I enjoyed my time in an impromptu group chat with a few of the Admins and the CEO, Spencer Howell and Bob Walker, Director of External Communications from Blockchain Partner Makeafolio. During The Apollo radio show hosted on Discord.
All in all I was able to be part of a fun conversation. I liked the Show and the candidness of everyone. Its expected that a CEO and Teams can't divulge NDA stuff, but Spencer and the Apollo Admins (who by the way hold down the fort on social everything for Apollo, true flag bearers) were all open and transparent.
So I plan on listening in on tonight's show if it goes down. If you invest in Apollo I recommend listening in and remember. When online Always protect your common sense…
Ok, so Apollo has been thru a bunch of updates since I did my deep dive into the Technology in the Apollo Wallet. I mean since then we're talking , Apollo moving Its HQ to Malta, getting to the business of building its Blockchain and bridging partnerships. Yea I feel like there's tons to cover… The move to Malta first and foremost… When I think about it, I'm like yea so binance too… It’s not a negative thing, unless you have an opinion on Malta itself.
I think it looks beautiful.
The coat of arms is very virile to say the least.
I continue to believe that Apollo is on to something, with their style and performance up to this point. Maintaining the claim of The All in one digital currency. With a Crypto Wallet containing a plethora of social tools and privacy features built on existing blockchain technology and now with a new Upgrade.
Download the new wallet (first delete the old files) https://github.com/ApolloFoundation/Apollo/releases/tag/1.0.7
To add to the future state I believe they still have or plan on opening customer facing locations for people to stop in and fidget with their Crypto wallet in front of an Apollo representative. Along with other Alias Account holders. Receiving help on one of the many Wallet features. Apollo currently has a platform that will soon come online with all of the integrated ability to create complex smart contracts.
"Combined with our asset system, monetary system, decentralized marketplace, storage system, leasing and voting system these smart contracts will open up nearly infinite possibilities within Apollo."
Such as: Crowd-funding, ICO, Finance, Charity, Voter IDs, Escrows, Coupons, Currency, Shares, Bonds, Private Equity, Public Equity, Commodities, Derivatives, Permits, Evidence, Court Records, Transparency, Death/Birth Certificates, Contracts, Wills, Trusts, Escrows, Maps, GPS Data, Signatures, Medical Records, Arbitration, Delivery Records, Certifications, Multi-Signature Accounts, Untraceable Communication, Untraceable File Transfer,
Private Investment Fund, Private Insurance Fund, Charity Fund
Now let me interject with Makeafolio and then finish with the Vimana Partnership(s). The newest partnership when explained by the CEO of Makeafolio, truly inspires thoughts of an online social, and educational crypto space for new, seasoned crypto traders, everyday people, and enthusiasts.
Now that’s a diverse and great looking Project Team.
The Website goes on:
Complete Cryptocurrency Management
The days of people feeling confused, overwhelmed, or scared to enter into the cryptocurrency space will be a thing of the past.
All this just sounds like more features and services that an Apollo Customer can potentially be assisted with. I think a competent crew of employees will need to be on hand to help a customer wield there personal blockchain and walk out a happy customer.…
Maybe like these guys.
I also understand that I may come across like a shill for Apollo. But my track record shows that I like varied projects. so I gladly confess that I have a stake in Silent Notary…
Suddenly, all the air in the room, was sucked up into the collective gasp of the internet…
Yea if you're not aware there is a bruhaha over a recent kucoin vote that ruffled a bunch of crypto feathers. But Hey the Silent Notary project in my opinion is solid and it too has a working product ala Apollo. Nuff said. You should read up on it. And if either one won the final vote by the time of this publication. Then good on them.
My goal with this piece is to convey my sentiments on upcoming achievements for the Wallet 2.0 and Hermes platform. Along with thoughts on a possible future that could make Apollo a household name.
Makeafolio right! The partnerships…
Before the 7/16 Live Apollo radio broadcast. Makeafolio was a hard concept to wrap my head around but then it made more sense when I learned from the CEO how the project aims to provide users with an Soft entry point into the crypto trading world by providing a dashboard for building a portfolio or given an option to choose an existing portfolio of successful traders. Backed by a Stats tracked leader board. Shortening the crypto learning curve and increasing the chance of quick investment earnings. To take it a step further The interface will offer access to the crypto equivalent of steam it, YouTube, and Udemy with chats and boards for community discussion. A hub for those new and wanting to enter the space, and incentivizing professional and experienced people to share their Knowledge via mentorships and producing content. Crypto can be scary, Makefolio builds the community for new users to interact and be helped, learn and invest by seeing what successful traders buy into, and to build good habits.
Looking to be all inclusive of everything crypto. Influencers will have a place to monetize or freely share their knowledge and experience. Technical Analysis can be taught by mentor's in a Modular system. Crypto Bloggers will have a new venue. Imagine giving a business card to someone with your MAF detail, Sell your expertise.
These Social aspects aim to be a driver of, 'Mass Adoption'
All to be paid out in MAF tokens… There Happy, I mentioned the money motive part.
Ultimately this partnership with Makeafolio adds another value added capability to the Hermes framework. The Apollo Foundation and its technology has established itself as a launch platform for Blockchain projects.
According to the Makeafolio CEO , the project initially considered using ERC20, however Looking to the future of Blockchain tech, The Hermes Blockchain is fully capable of meeting the scope and requirements for Makeafolio and there multi-purpose Crypto platform.
I like all of it. Together Apollo and Makeafolio will be bringing Crypto to the new world, brought to you by the Hermes Blockchain!
Alright how about Vimana
VIMANA is a self-driving passenger drone powered by blockchain technology and artificial intelligence.
And if you think my writing tends to be grandiose… check out the vision Vimana lays out on their Linkedin page.
https://www.linkedin.com/feed/update/urn:li:activity:6422742047534432256
Why don’t we dream about the desired future? Imagine that Vimana has arrived in the smart cities around the world! It is 2023, present day, 9 a.m. Jason is going to work. His actions are as usual as always – he unlocks his smartphone, opens the VIMANA mobile application, enters a desired flight by defining the departure point and the destination and waits. The system, in the meantime, is checking to see if Jason has enough money to cover the cost of the flight and simultaneously undergoes a series of system checks to ensure that the vehicle is suitable to fly. It is all right, of course, so Jason is provided in-app directions to the closest point with a vacant AAV. Jason goes up to the top of the nearest skyscraper and takes off! During the flight the vehicle is continually communicating with the Take-off and Landing area, beacons, and other aircraft in the AAV’s range as a part of the Detect and Avoid system and to maintain safe operations with the help of blockchain. So, Jason has nothing left to do but to enjoy the stunning views of the morning city! The flight takes only 10 minutes and Jason has plenty of time to get a cup of coffee! Have a nice day, Jason!
How Utopian… I have heard talk that this is not an exciting partnership. But the fact is that Flying Taxis are likely to become a thing in the near future.
Detail from Vimana
We are pleased to announce our new partnership with Next-Generation Blockchain Platform Developer ApolloCurrency ! Advancement of Apollo`s technology will become part of the Vimana Blockchain Airspace Network.

A look at the team
Apollo Currency is looking to be a widely used form of payment. This partnership and other Retail services are exactly the type of continued deals I would like to see Apollo establish.
I'll end off here for now. Many more new updates coming, so I hope to continue following the news, and going along for the ride.
