​​Joy and FOMO. "Solana's Killer - Aptos

Aptos is a notorious, thanks to a generous drop, young Tier 1 blockchain with excellent foundations and claimed space throughput (TPS). Is it true? Let's get to the bottom of it.

Characteristics :
1. Some $400,000,000 serious funds such as a16z, FTX Ventures, Binance, Coinbase, 3 Arrows/Multicoin Capital and others invested in this project. It took place in several stages : March 2022, July 2022 and September 2022, when Binance got involved.

2. The main feature of this network is the use of parallel transaction execution technology "Parallel Execution", which increases the throughput of the blockchain and increases the speed of transactions. The developers claim to be able to pass up to 160k transactions per second. Solana, for example, has 50k. But in practice we didn't see it yet, TPS is much less, and we didn't observed blockchain reaction on "peak" loads.

3. The network is fully out in Mainnet in time, Aptos Explorer is already running, and LayerZero has launched an Aptos cross-network bridge. Also underway are many NFT collections, marketplaces, launchpads, and DEX.

4. The project has its own $APT token, which has make rich many node holders, early users and users branding free NFT for a few clicks, giving away a generous drop. Thanks to the support of top exchanges and investors, the coin was quickly poured onto the tier-1 exchanges.

The project is definitely off to a decent start and gives you an opportunity to make money from it. Coin $APT is quite volatile, similar by its structure to the initial behavior of $APE, which was written about earlier. Also, considering the coin, it is worth to pay attention to the fact that at the moment 80% of the total issue of 1 billion APT is controlled by Aptos team.

We will continue to monitor the project's development, telling you all the most interesting things.

​​Analytics of the P2E web3 galactic MMO strategy game Star Atlas (Part 1)

Star Atlas is a highly realistic, immersive, space adventure game with grand strategy. It runs on the Solana MMO blockchain, runs on the Unreal Engine 5 and is supported by a real galactic economy.

Let's break down the visual and marketing side of the game:
1.
As soon as you visit the website of the project you realize at once that everything is made on the level higher than most other P2E projects. Visualization, technicality, up-to-date information, richness of links - all this is available and done by the Star Atlas team.

2. A separate page for the game session is provided. The game itself is not ready at the moment, according to the developers we should expect it by 2024 on the leading game-platform EPIC GAMES. However, the project is constantly being improved. A minigame with an internal rating is already available, and it is possible to trade or buy NFT on the built-in marketplace.

3. Twitter - 315k followers, Discord - 215k followers, partnerships with big funds (FTX / Solana / Serum) and experienced team - the publicity of this project is obvious, and the product is strongly expected by users. Despite the fact that the launch of the project took place in early 2021, it has a very good asset.

The developers of this project did not spare money for marketing, coin listings, active social networks and communities, top funds and cooperation, about which we will tell you in next article. All of this provides opportunities to hold the public's interest in the game and wait for its release. In the meantime, choose your faction, and pour fuel into your spaceships ✈️

​​Analytics of the P2E web3 galactic MMO strategy game Star Atlas (Part 2)

You can read the first part here.

Star Atlas is a highly realistic, immersive, space adventure game with grand strategy. It runs on the Solana MMO blockchain, runs on the Unreal Engine 5 and is supported by a real galactic economy.

Let's now break down the technical side of the game and one of the coins of the project

1.
Perhaps we should start with the fact that the project has two coins - $ATLAS, the project's main payment coin, and $POLIS, a fixed-issue DAO coin.

2. Let's take a closer look at $ATLAS. The currency is inflationary. The money supply should grow at about the same rate as the in-game economy. If you look at tokenomics, you can see a total issue of 36,000,000,000 tokens. As much as 65% of the coins are for player rewards and achievements (locked with daily vesting for 8 years), and 22.5% are for private seals (locked for 2 years). Interestingly, only 1.5% was allocated for public seals, which were held on Raydium, FTX, as well as on ApolloX.

3. At the public sale (1 Sep 2021) there was a huge rush, and for good reason. The sale price was $ 0.00138, and the peak price of 200 times more. And even now, a year later, the coin is trading at X's, and its value is $0.00415. At this point, only 6% of the coins are in circulation.

4. A burn mechanism is also provided if there are player actions on the marketplace. For example, the purchase and sale of ships, lands, their improvement and so on.

The obvious disadvantage is a long wait for the game, because the crypto market - unpredictable. Yes, the team got into p2e trends, got investments from big funds, added tokenomics, sold NFT and made a partnership with Epic Games. And it's worth a lot, but will it be worth the time?

In the next post we'll tell you about $POLIS coin and all its hidden secrets.

Part one / Part two

Star Atlas - is a highly realistic, immersive, space adventure game with grand strategy. It runs on the Solana MMO blockchain, runs on the Unreal Engine 5 and is supported by a real galactic economy.

A breakdown of the $POLIS coin.
1. $POLIS is a token used at each control level. It represents a financial stake in the game, voting rights in the DAO, and control of the treasury. The token has a fixed supply that will not grow.

2. Open tokenomics and see a total supply of 360,000,000 tokens, the bulk of which have been allocated to the team (30% with weekly vesting for two years and unlocking exclusively for staking) and 22.5% for Seed investors with the same lock-in. Rewards with an 8-year vesting represent 40% of the entire issue. This is a normal situation for DAO tokens. The selling price at the public sale was $0.138, at the moment the price of $POLIS is $0.16 (+20%).

3. The main investors are Yield Guild Games, PetRock Capital, which gives a strong backing to the project.

So, in three posts we fully reviewed marketing and technical sides of the project, their community and coins. We can say that the project is well done and supported from the very beginning, beautiful NFTs are developed and released, many strategic investments and partnerships are made to provide a strong backgrounder and a spectacular exit to Epic Games by the end of development.

We will continue to monitor the project's development, telling you all the most interesting things.

​​A breakdown of the Yuga Labs meta-universe project - Otherside

Otherside - is a meta-universe for collaborative games, creativity, competition, communication and research created by Yuga Labs and Improbable, whose names speak for themselves.

Features:
1. The first point I would like to say is that Otherside is a project directly affiliated with Yuga Labs, which means MAYC and BAYC. They are known not only for their price and utility, but they also give a head start to all the other collections with their community. Keep this in mind, we will need it next.

2. It is worth noting the creative and high quality project website. There you can find out what the world Otherside, what adventures and stories are waiting for you. Also clearly highlighted the drawings and the unique look of the NFT, which attracts a large audience (Twitter / Discord), gathered around the project.

3. The total issue was 100,000 NFTs, of which 55k were allocated for sale, 15k for developers and 30k unique lands were distributed to NFT holders from YC. The sale was for $APE 305 coins ($6,800 at the time of the sale), and we wrote about it earlier. All NFTs were sold within 3 hours, the transaction fee on ETH reached $5k, but even this didn't stop interested people (remember point 1). There are several types of lands and their characteristics, especially valuable are those with the mysterious Koda or additional artifacts. Select and check the land for the best characteristics relative to the price you can here.

4. At the moment, the Floor-price of the collection is 1.3 ETH, which gives an opportunity to become a part of the YC family and a member of the future Otherside universe profitably. Despite the current market, the sales volume and activity is increasing and amounts to 360k ETH, which puts the collection in the top 4 of all NFTs on OpenSea.

To conclude, we can say that a project equipped with such collaborations, media and community support, and most importantly, purpose, would be a great investment for the future. Without looking at the unknowns, such as the launch dates and the further release of another 100k NFTs, which will definitely be reflected in the price. By the time you read this, someone else has probably bought themselves a brand new site in Otherside.

We will continue to monitor the project's development, telling you all the most interesting things.
