A new pageant, the Ms and Mr Bitcoin International is set to revolutionize the beauty pageant industry with its cutting-edge decentralized format.

This beauty contest eliminates traditional national selections, relying instead on the global blockchain community to determine the winners.

Founded by New Empire and Celebrity Group, with its inaugural season co-organized by the World Blockchain Alliance and Hyperlive Entertainment, this international pageant is set to make waves.

Dr Sean Wong, the CEO of HyperLive Entertainment stated during the launch event: “This unique pageant format transcends national boundaries and aligns perfectly with the decentralized concept of blockchain.”

Wong added: “We are thrilled to provide a new global platform for young men and women to showcase their talents. Embracing blockchain’s core principles of decentralization and transparency, this marks a technological revolution in the beauty pageant industry.”

The official launch and press conference took place on June 22, 2024 in conjunction with the W2140 World Web3 Carnival held at Nexus Bangsar South, Kuala Lumpur.

Also conducted during the press conference was a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) signing ceremony between Hyperlive Entertainment and World Blockchain Alliance.

The launch event was full of glamour and glitz, with a bevy of beauty queens in attendance, including Miss Eco International Malaysia 2024 Jessica Gomez, Miss Intercontinental Malaysia 2023 Lindsey Yap, Miss Globe 2023 Aanvi Kher, Miss Supranational Malaysia 2022 Melisha Lin and Miss Celebrity Malaysia 2023 Yap Wen Wei.

Contestants from around the world are invited to compete for the ultimate prize – one bitcoin. The winners will be chosen based on their influence, popularity and charisma.

Beyond the monetary reward, the pageant presents contestants unparalleled opportunity to showcase their talent and resilience on an international platform.

The journey culminates in fully sponsored trips to Web3 events worldwide and the international grand finals, where contestants will shine alongside blockchain luminaries.

The organizing team is poised to introduce a Web3 voting system developed by Web3Preneur.com for the international contest.

According to Jagdish Pandya, founder of Web3Preneur.com, this cutting-edge system ensures anonymous voting, transparency and fairness, revolutionizing how contestants interact with their audience.

“Leveraging blockchain technology, it offers real-time, tamper-proof voting records that users can access, thereby enhancing transparency and trust. Unlike traditional centralized contests, this system allows for auditable and verifiable voting results, ensuring utmost accuracy,” he said.

Pandya said their upcoming collaborative events will further enhance contestant visibility and interaction.

“This partnership sets a new standard in contest voting, combining advanced technology with enhanced participant engagement and transparency,” he added.

The organizing team is pioneering the use of non-fungible tokens (NFTs) to empower contestants. Each contestant will have exclusive NFTs that supporters can collect, offering a means of monetization through royalties and a decentralized pathway to build a sustainable career in the industry.

Popular contestants may see their NFTs gain value, further democratizing talent management and creating new opportunities for aspiring individuals.

The W2140 World Web3 Carnival featured experts and practitioners from across the globe, discussing the latest trends and future developments in WEB3 technology.

Jack Wang, the founding president of World Blockchain Alliance, said, “I am thrilled to be partnering with a remarkable team, whose outstanding track record in producing world-class shows will help us bring excitement and add value to the blockchain world.”

Wang added, “This is also a wonderful opportunity for us to empower people with blockchain knowledge and education. With our combined expertise, I believe we can create innovative and engaging content that will captivate audiences and inspire them to learn more about the potential of blockchain technology.”
