Dear Community,

We are excited to share the latest PIX updates with all of you.

Please remember that it’s important to note that the power of PIX extends far beyond the Lampix use case. While Lampix will leverage the platform quite heavily and all Lampix progress is favorable to the PIX ecosystem, the utility of the PIX token extends far beyond the exchange of training data for Lampix. From self driving cars, to recognizing satellite images, and an infinite list of use cases not yet realized, as AI and image recognition continues to skyrocket as a field. We aim to ensure that PIX is accessible to all interested parties in its utility. That’s why we have introduced new branding for PIX and will continue to develop the PIX ecosystem marketing with content and assets to appeal to a wide audience.

In addition to PIX marketing, we continue to make progress to plan on the development of the platform code and the buy and sell side ecosystem in general:

MARKETING

PIX: Launched https://www.pixtoken.co with its own distinct branding. Website content will continue to expand to market the token and its many use cases.

Created input form on PIXtoken.co to collect new leads for pix ecosystem bounties to expand our footprint beyond Lampix use case and welcome brands / companies that otherwise might “compete” with Lampix to feel welcome to use PIX as a neutral space.
