1/30 Thread 🧵 (UPDATED)

Curious about the Metaverse we're building at @_portals_ ?

Here's my thread (3.0) with everything you need to know and how you can test Portals yourself for free!

Let's dive in 👇
2/30

PORTALS

With a focus on a dense city center and zero-friction user experience, together with our community, we’re building the best city in the metaverse.

Build. Explore. Invite. Play.
3/30

NO DEVS NEEDED. ANYONE CAN BUILD. IN THE BROWSER.

This space is made with our editor in the browser. You can acquire a Portals and just a few hours later start hosting events with 30-150 people.

Example:
4/30

REAL-WORLD UTILITY

Think of it not only as an NFT, but that you have a "metaverse-software-as-a-service". You can use it for yourself and you can use it for/with others.

Check SaaS/software prices for doing things virtually with 30+ people. Companies pay a lot.
5/30

"DRIP VALUE"

We'll continue to provide utility value over time to holders, current examples are:

- "Standard" Citizen Card NFTs
- "Genesis" Citizen Card NFTs
- Upcoming Portals PFP Project
- Option to rent it out on-chain / off-chain (biz dev)
- And more...
6/30

RENTING

Rent out your Portals NFT to communities and companies.

Together with @cardinal_labs we just launched an alpha version of the Portals Renting Marketplace for Portals Ivory, Onyx, and Vision NFT holders.
7/30

NEW DESIGN AND USER INTERFACE COMING

Everything in this thread will be in the Portals Metaverse with this upcoming new design, user interface, and user experience. The goal is to rival or beat the other products we use every day in terms of design/UI/UX.
8/30

NETWORK? Yes!

Anyone who wants to be active in the Portals community will have a lot of amazing Metaverse and Web3 networking opportunities. Design. Create. Organize. Host. Whatever your strength is.
9/30

FUN

Enough utility talk for a bit. Our goal is as much to make the internet and virtual experiences FUN.

Invite people to the space. Play music. Play games. Voice chat. Explore Portals Downtown (See you in the Arcade?) and so many other things.
10/30

Let's dive a bit into who's building Portals:

PORTALS TEAM

20+ team members and hiring. We have been onboarding team members from companies like Apple, Epic Games, Roblox, and Sony Interactive Entertainment etc.

Doxxed:
11/30

GAME STUDIO TEAM

The AAA game studio team we're assembling is also overseeing world-class game art studios that have been ramping up production on creating an amazing virtual city.
13/30

METAVERSE DEVELOPMENT PARTNERS

Very happy to be partnering with
@Everyrealm @growyourbase_ @_MVStudios @arca @TerraZeroTech @councilofkingz and more
14/30

THE PORTALS COMMUNITY/HOLDERS

This is probably one of the most underrated things about Portals. We have a lot of very resourceful founders/, executives, investors, creatives, music and sports professionals, theater and movie producers, etc etc.

15/30

BUILDING ONE

We build both vertically (Building One) and horizontally (Downtown/Districts), which allows us to move faster with activities and experiences, e.g. you don't need an entire exterior to get started and we avoid initial empty areas.

16/30

WHAT ARE WE WORKING ON NOW?

ROADMAP 2.0!

Check out Districts! Bots! Pets! Templates! Avatars! The PFP Project! New items! and more.

See the full list of recent announcements here:
17/30

CITIZEN CARDS

New Metaverse concept that allows a lot more people to engage with Portals - more than just to be connected with a wallet. Citizen Card owners even get a small personal space for NFTs, collectibles, and a few friends.

18/30

NPC CHATBOTS

We're building customizable NPC Chat Bots for Portals Spaces:
19/30

AWESOME COLLABORATIONS & PARTNERSHIPS

All Portals partnerships/collaborations are using NFTs. There are no honorary or promotional NFTs. Including for brands and companies in Portals.

@FTX_Official + @Ftx_Nfts

23/30

AMBITIONS

We want to build something amazing that millions of people can use down the road. It's with this scope that we choose our investors. Our Lead investor is Greylock who has invested in multiple platforms with hundreds of millions of users:

24/30

BUILDING ON SOLANA

This allows us to do things like the previously mentioned Citizen Cards, easy future micro-transactions (for events, etc), take advantage of the NFT/Gaming mass adoption and audience coming to Solana and so much more.

25/30

SOLANA HACKATHON WINNER

In October 2021 we got 2nd place in the Gaming category at the Solana #Ignition Hackathon!

We later became a sponsor and a judge at the Solana #Riptide Hackathon! 🌊

1/29 Thread 🧵

Bought another Ivory ( @_portals_ NFT) at the floor today and thought I wanted to do a bit of summary on Portals. Haven't tweeted much lately.

I'm very biased (CMO @ Portals) and this is not financial advice. Always DYOR and ask q's.

Let's dive in 👇
2/29

People who focus only on floor price sometimes forget the "drip" value of a project. In the next months from this Ivory I'll get:

- 3 "Standard" Citizen Cards
- 1 "Genesis" Citizen Card
- Option to rent it out on-chain
- Option to rent it out off-chain (biz dev)
- Maybe... ImageImageImage
