1/ A thread on Star Atlas - venturing into the future of gaming, #NFT & monetization that transcends the metaverse to the real world
Star Atlas is a blockchain-based, space-themed, grand strategy video game built on Solana $SOL. It is a massive multiplayer metaverse set in 2620.
2/ Star Atlas leverages Unreal Engine's Nanite, which is a major breakthrough in graphics rendering that allows cinematic quality gameplay
#NFTs obtained and traded within Star Atlas creates an economy that replicates the tangibility of real world assets and ownership
3/ A similar game is EVE Online which has grown every year at 53% compounded annual growth and has brought in over ~$300 million in revenues.
The two cannot be compared though; Star Atlas goes much further with plans for a truly immersive AR/VR experience in the metaverse
4/ Unlike most games in existence today, Star Atlas provides a unique opportunity for players to extract in-game virtual earnings into real-world income.
Where many game developers opt to monopolize asset ownership and distribution through restrictions on reselling, Star Atlas
5/ fully embraces the potential of decentralized self-sovereign ownership of assets permitted through the implementation of blockchain into asset ownership and NFT marketplaces. The ethos of the Star Atlas team is to encourage the monetization of time spent in this virtual world
6/ and emphasize the ability for this monetization to transcend the metaverse to the real world. Digital assets owned always belong to the holder, and crypto assets earned can be converted into fiat currencies friction-free. This is the model for the future of gaming.
7/ $ATLAS and $POLIS are tokens of the Star Atlas ecosystem
$ATLAS will be powering the economy of this entire metaverse. Initially, players will have to leverage their $ATLAS token to acquire in-game #NFT items such as a crew, a spaceship, land, and equipment to play the game.
8/ $POLIS is the governance token in the Star Atlas metaverse - a proxy of political influence. Token holders will be able to influence the decision-making of the Star Atlas dev team as well as form governing decisions in-game.
Think of it as votes in the parliment.
9/ 80% of the $ATLAS tokens will be rewards to players for participating in the game creating a great incentive and fair distribution. $POLIS can be generated via staking $ATLAS or direct/secondary mkt
10/ Star Atlas has a grand vision and can be the 1st AAA rated blockchain based game with true asset ownership in the form of #NFTs an in-built DEX which allows players to frictionlessly trade in-game items, rewards and #NFTs back to fiat currencies.
11/ Star Atlas has the potential to usher into a new era of gaming with truly a truly immersive metaverse, #NFTs and the ability to extract in-game virtual earnings into real-world income.
DeFi India is bullish on the project.
Leaving you with stunning visuals from the game.
