SINGAPORE, Sept. 27, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — OKX, a leading onchain technology company and an Official Primary Partner of the McLaren Formula 1 Team, today released the second installment of its ‘My Fabric’ campaign featuring McLaren F1 driver Oscar Piastri. In the video, the rising star reflects on his journey from young junior driver to his breakthrough success in the pinnacle of motorsport, Formula 1.

OKX’s ‘My Fabric’ campaign showcases the perseverance, resilience and personal experiences that shape extraordinary individuals. In this new episode, Oscar Piastri, in the midst of his second F1 season with McLaren, shares the story of his determination to reach the highest levels of motorsport. Growing up near Melbourne’s Albert Park, Oscar recalls the inspiration that the Australian Grand Prix provided and the sacrifices he made to pursue his dreams.

In the video, Piastri reflects on his early motorsport experience and recalls the challenges he faced moving abroad at a young age in order to chase his F1 dream. Piastri said: “Leaving home at 14 was tough, but my family trusted me to make it happen. Knowing the sacrifices they made, signing that F1 contract was an incredibly special moment.”

The campaign also captures Oscar’s thoughts on his debut win at the Hungarian Grand Prix, a significant milestone in his career: “The win meant a lot to me. It was something I dreamed of as a little kid. I was just very proud of the whole weekend and the performance I had. Hopefully it’s the first of many, but it was a childhood dream ticked off and an unforgettable feeling.”

OKX’s ‘My Fabric’ campaign has also featured stories from global ambassadors, including fellow McLaren F1 driver Lando Norris, and Manchester City football stars Jack Grealish, Rúben Dias and Ederson Santana de Moraes, women’s team star Alex Greenwood, as well as legendary manager Pep Guardiola.  These campaigns underline OKX’s commitment to showcasing the drive and perseverance of individuals who have reached the top of their fields.

In May 2022, OKX and McLaren Racing announced a multi-year partnership that made OKX a Primary Partner of the McLaren Formula 1 Team and McLaren Shadow F1 Sim Racing Team. OKX and McLaren Racing expanded their partnership in January 2024, with the OKX logo featuring on the side pods of the McLaren F1 car livery for 20 races during the 2024 F1 season, in addition to other OKX branding placements on the car. OKX also recently launched a free-to-mint ‘Race Reward‘ digital collectibles (NFT) drop, providing fans with a commemorative artifact from each grand prix.

With Citrea Testnet, Bitcoin starts to scale its original goal: self-sovereign finance.

GEORGE TOWN, Cayman Islands, Sept. 24, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — Today, Citrea announces the launch of Citrea Testnet on Bitcoin Testnet4. Citrea Testnet marks a significant step towards using Bitcoin as a settlement layer, setting the stage for a decentralized, self-sovereign financial ecosystem on a global scale. Bitcoin is now one step closer to its next phase, the foundation for the world’s finance. 

Citrea Testnet introduces a new Bitcoin era for both developers and users, where accessing Bitcoin’s utility doesn’t come at the expense of sacrificing its self-sovereignty. Citrea Testnet is the only working rollup solution allowing EVM developers to build decentralized applications that inherit Bitcoin’s security while leveraging the most trust-minimized way to use BTC.

What is in Citrea Testnet? 

Citrea Testnet includes a nearly complete version of Clementine — Citrea’s BitVM-based trust-minimized bridge design — and puts critical bridge infrastructure to the test, such as detecting malicious operators, coordinating pre-signatures, and operator-based withdrawals. The final piece, implementing fraud proofs with BitVM, is underway as the team continues to contribute to the open-source BitVM repository. 

Building An Economy On Bitcoin

With Citrea Testnet, Bitcoin can finally start to scale its original goal, self-sovereign finance. Citrea Testnet provides developers with a novel platform to build powerful applications that will achieve both financial inclusion and freedom for new and existing Bitcoin users. By using Bitcoin for both settlement and data availability, Citrea increases BTC’s utility and activates Bitcoin blockspace for a new financial ecosystem.

Key Citrea Features: 

• Fully EVM Compatible: Citrea’s execution environment supports all EVM tooling and languages, allowing developers to easily deploy smart contracts on a Bitcoin secured platform. 
• Bitcoin Settlement: Once Citrea’s trust-minimized BitVM-based bridge, Clementine, is fully implemented, developers can leverage trust-minimized BTC in their applications.
• Access to Bitcoin Blockspace: Citrea opens the most secure blockpace to developers, enabling them to build applications and create an economy secured by Bitcoin. 

Developers who want to build on Citrea can get directly in touch with the team via Citrea’s developer form.

Citrea plans to ship Mainnet in Q1 2025.

About Citrea

Citrea is the first rollup that increases BTC’s utility and activates Bitcoin blockspace for a new financial ecosystem. Citrea’s vision is to build scalable infrastructure that advances Bitcoin into its next phase, the foundation for the world’s finance. Achieving this vision requires scaling Bitcoin blockspace to increase its transaction capacity and expressivity without changing its consensus rules.

If you want to build on Citrea, please fill out Citrea developer form: https://citrea.typeform.com/incubation
