A new conservation finance mechanism has been unveiled at the Grounded Summit, a solutions oriented gathering of scientists, technologists and conservation leaders collaborating on climate change solutions.

Ultra has expanded the availability of Ultra Assets in its network with the introduction of Ultra Real (uBRL) and Ultra Renminbi (uCNY), tokenized assets backed by assocatied currencies and stored in Ultra Asset Vaults on Hub Culture.

The expansion of Hub Culture's Ultra Asset tokenisation system continues with the arrival of Ultra Art at Art Basel Miami Beach 2018. Ultra Art enables art pieces to be tokenized and traded on the Ultra platform, opening up new liquidity and managment resources for artists, collectors and investors.

Ultra, (the Hub Culture exchange system for tokenized assets) has revealed new capabilities for sending and receiving tokenized dollars, euros and other currencies at the 2018 FedPayments Community Improvement Forum in Chicago. These Ultra Assets,  including tokenized assets representing uUSD, uEUR, uGBP, uHKD, uAED and other currencies, can now be exchanged between members, purchased with Ven, and stored in digital vaults managed by Hub Culture.

At the Transition Monaco Forum focused on scaling renewable energy and climate solutions, Hub Culture has announced Ultra Carbon, a digitised carbon token running on the Ultra network. It is the first tool to enable tokenised real-time peer to peer carbon trading.

ULTRA is an open source, decentralized blockchain project. It aims to provide a transaction protocol for any type of asset with a lexicon of shared data standards to which anyone can contribute
