ChessUp Smart Chessboard Already Raised Over $ 830,000
Fundraising for the release of the smart chessboard ChessUp is taking place on the KickStarter website. It is going well: although there are still 25 days before the end of the campaign, the authors of the project have already managed to raise more than $ 830,000.
According to the developers, ChessUp takes the game to the next level. By highlighting the squares with three possible colors, the board can show possible moves and their quality. Sensors record the touch to the figures. The board is equipped with a Bluetooth 5 interface and is paired with a mobile application that records the course of the game, gives hints, estimates and suggests moves. It uses the chess brain of Stackfish, a free open source engine built on AI algorithms.
The board helps to master the game, raise your level, acts as a rival and coach. It can be used when playing alone or with another player – both sitting opposite or remotely.
A set of board, shapes, case and app will cost the campaign participant $ 249. Shipping is due to start in November.

The week began for the main cryptocurrencies of the world with a rise in price and the establishment of new price highs, and ends with a fall, and quite noticeable. Over the course of a day, Bitcoin loses about 4.5% of its value, and as a result, for 1 BTC now they give not $ 66,000, but about $ 60,500.
After Bitcoin began to fall, Ethereum was still holding, but its rate had already gone down too, dropping below the psychological mark of $ 4,000. Analysts believe that such a fall in cryptocurrencies is due to their sell-off on the part of investors – they are fixing profits against the backdrop of a strong growth in value that has been observed since the end of September. This means that after the current correction, Bitcoin may rush to new heights, but whether altcoins will follow it is a big question.
Interestingly, against the background of a decrease in quotations of other cryptocurrencies from the Top 10, Solana feels very confident: it grew by almost 6% per day, and by almost 25% in a week.
