IOTA introduces Genesis NFTs



In order to build up its own NFT ecosystem, IOTA is introducing its Shimmer Jerseys today. Early adopters should also be rewarded in the long term.

The preparations for the Shimmer update are in full swing at IOTA.  To make it easier for them to say goodbye, it would of course be good if processes work and the ecosystem has committed and hard-working supporters. This is now to be tested and ensured using the Shimmer Genesis NFTs. The press release states:

Shimmer Genesis NFTs are for the early-risk adopters in our ecosystem who are ready to explore the unique ways that NFTs empower the community.

IOTA jerseys for the community

These Shimmer Genesis NFTs are a limited edition of 11,111 NFTs showing gold, silver or bronze shirts. These exist in different price categories and will have different degrees of rarity.

  • Gold: 1,000 for $ 3,000 each
  • Silver: 3,000 pieces for $ 2,000 each
  • Bronze: 6,000 pieces for $ 1,000 each

Depending on the level, the acquirers of the NFTs receive benefits such as access to future airdrops and a roadmap for faster ecosystem development. In addition, membership of this DAO enables participation and allocation of financial resources in community projects. The NFT jerseys will be available from November 26, 2021 in the Shimmer NFT Shop.

Each NFT also gives the new owner and the Shimmer Treasury the right to staking rewards. The equation for the staking boost in the press release is: "HODL Genesis NFT + Stake Shimmer Token = greater staking reward."

It looks like those who buy and keep NFTs will be rewarded for them in the future. However, the tokens are not distributed proportionally after purchases, but only activated and distributed after a governance vote. To explain the practice of this application it is said:

Let's assume a hypothetical scenario. If the community votes to give Genesis Gold NFTs a 15 percent staking boost, your Shimmer staking rewards will increase by 15 percent. Having two Gold NFTs increases your rewards by 30 percent, and so on. You can easily stack NFTs to increase your staking rewards for securing the Shimmer Network. For each staking boost, the corresponding amount of staking rewards for the DAO community is coined and provides the community with long-term funds for the ecosystem.

Financial resources for the IOTA ecosystem

The proceeds from the NFT sale are intended to fund future NFT campaigns and the “development of DAOs within the IOTA and Shimmer ecosystem”. The next few months will show how much income this brings together. What is certain is that the Shimmer playground is first attempting to get participants onto the platform in this way in order to try out the future staking model.

The 5 largest platforms for non-fungible token (NFT) collectibles

  Since the beginning of 2021, non-fungible tokens (NFT) have had no holding back and the sector is setting new records almost every day.  More and more artists, stars and brands are realizing the potential - NFT are well on their way to catapulting the crypto space into the mainstream.  But which collectibles are currently the most popular? What are NFT? NFT are unique tokens that cannot be exchanged one-for-one for an equivalent token.  Any asset that is tokenizable can be an NFT.  This includes, for example, (digital) works of art, trading cards, game items and crypto domains.  Theoretically, however, real estate or securities can also be mapped as NFT. NFTs can be used to transparently map ownership structures on a public blockchain.  This allows them to store value just like real objects, even if additional copies are easy to make.  For example, the original picture of the Mona Lisa is significantly more valuable than a photo, as everyone kno...

CARDALONIA: THE CARDANO METAVERSE OPENS THE GATES!

  Have you ever been to Cardalonia? With these words, the Cardano Metaverse called Cardalonia starts the gates. In this 3D world, developers and users can interact with each other. First of all, users have to create an individual character with which they can move online. After that you can enter one of the worlds built by developers with this character. You can also purchase your own land in the Cardano Metaverse via the marketplaces in Cardalonia . This is secured by Cardano's blockchain technology and therefore offers a relatively secure transfer of ownership. Since these are only digital plots of land, it is not yet entirely clear when the plots of land are purchased whether they can also be sold again in the future. A possible profit cannot be estimated at the moment. In Cardalonia, the cryptocurrency Lonia is used. The maximum amount of tokens in circulation is 100,000,000. The team consists of Alice Sand (Co-Founder), Vasil Air (CTO) and Dustan Water (Fullstack Developer). T...

Cardano: This is the vision that founder Charles Hoskinson has

  The Altcoin Cardano has tended to decline in recent weeks.  The Alonzo upgrade was supposed to bring improvements, but it soon turned out to be a disappointment.  Cardano founder Charles Hoskinson presented his vision for the cyber motto in a live Twitter video. • Cardano in the last few months under pressure • Charles Hoskinson explains his Cardano vision via Twitter • Security and privacy at the center The cryptocurrency  Cardano  has had a difficult few months.  While founder Charles Hoskinson's cyber motto has had a strong run in 2021, it has been steadily downhill in recent months.  Cardano is faced with some difficulties.  The so-called Alonzo upgrade went live in mid-September, for which crypto fans had high hopes, but which soon turned out to be a disappointment.  The upgrade should make it possible to use smart contracts on the cryptocurrency as well.  It soon turned out, however, that although these were entered into Cardano,...
