Welcome to the second edition of Weekly Tech News by Delnorte
This week’s newsletter features some very exciting news about Crypto and Delnorte
Delnorte DTV June 18th update
Last week Saudi Arabia’s central bank has joined Project mBridge a CBDC for international trade for BRICS and other countries. Thus ends the 50-year Petrodollar contract, which never existed, since the June 8, 1974, Joint Commission on Economic Cooperation between US and Saudis was only supposed to last five years and have the oil traded in sterling silver, it was later extended and changed to the dollar in return for arms and protection from US. In fact, over all crypto has become very politicized with the libertarians and the right being pro crypto and the left being anti crypto, at least in USA. However, I think it will take a while for any of these things to play out on a global scale, all of this news is actually positive for Delnorte. The world is moving away from tradition and towards innovation, and in the territories we are operating in, we are not just the most innovative and advanced company.
As you are aware, Delnorte is weeks away from signing a federal contract with El Salvador. We are planning a big event in Miami that will act as a launchpad for the company and token. However additional capital is necessary to kick things off, maintain momentum and achieve our planned milestones. Thus, I am offering special terms for this bridge funding round of $180,000 total. The terms for the 4-month bridge loan are very favorable, so if you are interested, please email us at [email protected]
We are about 75% complete on assembling the speaker panel and will begin selling tickets to the event sometime in late June, so stay tune as in the next issue of the newsletter that information will be provided.
If you are interested in attending this event, or helping out with planning, sponsorship or guest list, please email us at: [email protected]

The AI content epidemic: can humans keep up?
In today's digital age, the lines between reality and fiction are increasingly blurred. Artificial Intelligence (AI) has made tremendous strides in generating and cloning content, making it challenging for humans to distinguish between authentic and fake information. As AI continues to evolve, it's crucial to acknowledge the consequences of this phenomenon and explore potential solutions to combat digital deception.
AI's ability to generate and clone content has reached an unprecedented level. With the help of machine learning algorithms and vast amounts of data, AI can create convincing fake content, including text, images, videos, and even audio files. This has significant implications for various industries, including journalism, marketing, and entertainment. Now all major platforms from X to YouTube and Facebook accept AI generated content without any warnings or filters, possibly because they can’t yet detect the difference.
The problem is further exacerbated by the fact that humans have not evolved to develop a natural instinct to detect AI-generated content. Our brains are wired to recognize patterns and make decisions based on our experiences, but AI-generated content often appears indistinguishable from the real thing.
So, how can we combat the proliferation of digital deception? One potential solution lies in the realm of blockchain technology and Non-Fungible Tokens (NFTs).
NFTs: The Digital Shield Against AI-Generated Content
NFTs are unique digital assets that prove ownership and scarcity. By utilizing blockchain technology, NFTs create an immutable record of ownership, making it virtually impossible for AI to clone or replicate. This digital shield provides a safeguard against AI-generated content, allowing creators and consumers to verify the authenticity of digital assets.
In the digital space, NFTs can be used to:
Proof of identity: Soul bound NFTs can act like digital interactive IDs issued at birth and forever attached to a single person.
Verify ownership: NFTs ensure that creators and owners have exclusive rights to their digital assets, preventing AI-generated duplicates.
Prove scarcity: NFTs demonstrate the rarity and uniqueness of digital assets, making it difficult for AI to replicate or clone.
Track provenance: NFTs provide a transparent record of ownership, allowing for easy tracking and verification of digital assets.
In conclusion, the AI-generated content poses a significant threat to the digital landscape. While humans struggle to distinguish between reality and fiction, NFTs offer a beacon of hope. By leveraging blockchain technology and NFTs, we can create a digital ecosystem where authenticity and ownership are safeguarded, and the integrity of digital content is preserved.
As we navigate the complexities of the digital age, it's essential to acknowledge the role of AI-generated content and the importance of NFTs in combating digital deception. By embracing this technology, we can create a more transparent and trustworthy digital space, where creators and consumers alike can thrive.
I hope you enjoyed the Weekly Tech Newsletter and the chosen articles. Next week we will have more updates on El Salvador blockchain summit and other blockchain and AI news. Until then, keep exploring, keep innovating, and keep pushing the limits of what technology can achieve and of course don’t forget to buy tickets to the El Salvador blockchain summit.
Thank you for reading.
