According to BlockBeats, Ethereum's co-founder, Vitalik Buterin, recently expressed his admiration for the cryptocurrency experiment 'Orb Land' on social media. The experiment, initiated by Taproot Wizards' founder Eric Wall, aims to tokenize personal consultation services into Non-Fungible Tokens (NFTs). Owners of the 'Orb' will have the right to ask questions to the creator of the Orb and resell this right. Technically, the Orb is an improved version of ERC-721, supporting the ERC-721 interface, and all transfer-related functions are restored. Although the Orb can be displayed on OpenSea, it cannot be listed for sale on NFT trading markets such as OpenSea, Sudoswap, or Blur. Furthermore, the Orb manages ownership functions through auctions and the Harberger tax system. This innovative approach to tokenizing consultation services has caught the attention of industry leaders like Buterin, indicating a potential new direction for the use of NFTs in the digital economy.

According to CoinDesk, Dolce & Gabbana USA is facing a lawsuit from a customer who alleges that the company delayed the delivery of its non-fungible tokens (NFTs), causing him to lose value on the DGFamily NFTs. The customer, Luke Brown, reportedly spent $6,000 to purchase the asset and claims to have lost $5,800 due to the delay.

Both Dolce & Gabbana and UNXD, who is also named as a defendant in the case, have not yet responded to requests for comment.
