Introduction of Seascape Network project
Mary | Satoshi Club:
Hello Satoshi Club! We are happy to announce our AMA session with Seascape! Welcome to Satoshi Club😀
D| Satoshi Club:
Hi! 😄 @Transparentz @Nicky Li nice to have you here guys😇 How are you?
Nicky:
Greetings all! Excited to be here!
David – Seascape Founder:
Thank you. It’s great to be here to talk about our project and the future of gaming and DeFi!
Mary | Satoshi Club:
Hello, guys! As we are all here, let’s start the party 🚀
D| Satoshi Club:
Yes, it’s should be interesting! 😊
Nicky:
Let’s do this💪
Mary | Satoshi Club:
Tell us please about yourself and how did you start with Seascape 😀
D| Satoshi Club:
As always let’s start with an intro😇
David – Seascape Founder:
Sure thing! Hey everyone, I’m David, founder and creative director of the Seascape Network. I’ve been a game developer for the last decade working in many established studios such as Paradox Interactive, mainly working on historical strategy games. I started getting involved in blockchain in 2016, first as an investor and later as the creator of BLOCKLORDS, which was the first blockchain strategy game.
David – Seascape Founder:
I started getting involved in blockchain in 2016, first as an investor and later as the creator of BLOCKLORDS, which was the first blockchain strategy game. Since then, we’ve received funding and grants from many major blockchain institutions and protocols, and we are ready to take the next step on our journey by developing the Seascape Network, a game platform designed around the Defi and NFT economies!
Nicky:
Sure! Hello again all, I’m Nicky. Passionate about games and stepped into the Gaming industry in 2014. Experience at established Chinese game studios such as Yoozoo, Forgame, and Moonton. Worked as a project manager, which won the ‘BEST FACEBOOK GAME’ in 2014. It was a huge success and led to very good market performance. Also worked as a designer and operation team leader on, a WW2 strategy game that also won the ‘BEST FACEBOOK GAME’ in 2016.
David – Seascape Founder:
This is a sneak peak of our last game, BLOCKLORDS 🙂 but now our main focus is on the Seascape Network and building the future of gamified DeFi!
Mary | Satoshi Club:
I like your experience 👏 and what you’re doing🚀
D| Satoshi Club:
Cool! Does Seascape Network also focus on strategy games? 😁
Nicky:
Currently leading the development of BLOCKLORDS an innovative medieval grand strategy blockchain game and a few other Seascape games. And also Co-founder and COO of Seascape Network. Personally, I got into crypto because of CryptoKitties. Its success also gives me inspiration about combining the games with blockchain technology, allowing “play and earn” to become the next wave in the industry.
Mary | Satoshi Club:
Really cool intro👍 Seascape should be happy to have such a profit😉
David – Seascape Founder:
Seascape will be a game platform available to all developers interested in adding DeFi and token economics to their games, so it will definitely not be only strategy games. Actually, we plan to launch a series of DeFi inspired mini-games immediately after launch that will be a lot more casual than BLOCKLORDS and focused entirely around DeFi concepts such as liquidity mining, NFT Minting, and staking!
Mary | Satoshi Club:
Oh, I am far from a professional game player, but I like DeFi games😂 Bring them for us🚀
D| Satoshi Club:
Nice diversity👍
Mary | Satoshi Club:
Thank you, guys! Btw, I see you’re not anonymous?😂
David – Seascape Founder:
No, we have actually been working as blockchain game devs in this industry for the last 3 years, and have forged connections and partnerships with teams like Chainlink and MakerDAO. Me and Nicky: also interact regularly with the community, both in AMAs such as this as well as talking directly to our players in our various groups. So we are far from anonymous!
Mary | Satoshi Club:
And that’s great! I really like this😀
D| Satoshi Club:
That’s a good sign for supporters and investors 😄 if you ask me
Mary | Satoshi Club:
Thank you for your great introduction 😉 Ready to go to the questions from our community?🚀🎉
David – Seascape Founder:
Yes, ready!
Preselected questions about the Seascape Network project.
D| Satoshi Club:
Q1 from Telegram user @JesusFre1tes
Seascape has a token release scheduled for early January. What progress have you made so far on this important step? What will be the most important use cases for these tokens? What differences will be noticeable between the common platform tokens and the programmed ones?
Nicky:
Let me take this one 😆
Actually, the release has been pushed out by 1 month, so we are looking at early February for release. Apologies for this mistake in communication.
As far as our progress, we are on track in all aspects. We have received funding from some major institutions (more news on that soon), we have developed not only BLOCKLORDS, but the first strategy game ever made, development on our DeFi games has also been going great and they will be released quickly after launch, our smart contracts have been audited and verified by some top companies in the security field, and we are looking seriously into L2 solutions to scale from Ethereum, most notably Binance Smart Chain and Polkadot.
D| Satoshi Club:
Nice, lots of work done already😀
Nicky:
We have also partnered with great companies such as Chainlink, MakerDAO, and many more to help leverage the full power of the blockchain ecosystem for ourselves and our users. And last but not least, we have partnered with some top-tier marketing agencies to help us get the word about our products to as many people as possible! Launching a brand new platform is no easy task, but we are ready for this exciting challenge and have prepared for it for over a year now!
Mary | Satoshi Club:
Yes, the list of your partners is pleasing😉
Wish you a successful Launch 🚀
Nicky:
Hope I answered this question well. 🤗
D| Satoshi Club:
Great answer 😄
Mary | Satoshi Club:
How you will distribute your tokens?
D| Satoshi Club:
And what will be the use cases for the token?
David – Seascape Founder:
We are planning to have a very limited public sale in a few weeks, that will allow the community to invest in the project. This is being hosted by one of the top public sale platforms in the space. Once that is completed, there will be a token generation event on Uniswap and other undisclosed exchanges where a limited amount of liquidity will be added to the market. This, along with our in-game incentives for our early users will be the main way the token is distributed at the platform launch!
Mary | Satoshi Club:
That is what I am waiting for 😂
Nicky:
There will be many ways to use and earn Crowns.
After Seascape official launch, of course, everyone can buy Crowns on Uniswap. Then soon after launch, we will begin to release 3 DeFi Games, which will allow players to stake LP tokens to earn more Crowns; Spend Crowns to get Seascape NFTs, and Stake Seascape NFTs to get more Crowns rewards.
D| Satoshi Club:
Ok cool! thank you for the answers guys! 👌 Ready for the next question?
David – Seascape Founder:
Yeah ready!
Nicky:
There are more Seascapes games we are working on and gonna be released during this year, and Crowns will be the core currency to spend and earn as rewards inside of these games.
Yeah ready.
D| Satoshi Club:
Q2 from Telegram user @De_rick_Abra_ham
If a user wants to claim Crowns, he needs to burn NFTs. Also, to create new NFTs, he will have to spend Crowns which are then rebased. Does that mean we can’t hold Crowns and NFTs together? How actually this works?
David – Seascape Founder:
Of course, he can hold both! This is decentralized technology after all and we cannot control what you have in your wallet. What we mean by this is that once the platform is launched we will release a series of games inspired by DeFi mechanics.
Let me try with some specific examples. In the game called NFT BRAWL, users have the option to spend Crowns to get an NFT of random quality. In this game, any player can choose to spend any amount they wish to mint NFTs. These Crowns will be locked up in the community pool to be later redistributed to holders via our Paywave system. This is one of the many options users will have to spend Crowns on the Seascape platform. But how or when Crowns are spent is entirely up to the user.
In another example, the NFT staking game, which is named STAKING SALOON, works in a similar fashion. A user can stake an NFT and start earning Crowns. The APY will be significant in size. But the catch here is that to claim the Crowns, the NFT will be burnt. Meaning that the user will have to make a decision: “Do I claim now and lose my NFTs to get the reward?” or “Do I wait until the end of the event to get the maximum amount of rewards?” This will make users think twice before claiming their rewards, which is what we wanted.
But of course, this is only possible if you have staked your NFT inside the game. And outside of the games, you are free to own as many Crowns or NFTs as you wish without the risk of them being burned! Hope that makes it clear.
Mary | Satoshi Club:
They will be able to mint NFT for a random amount of Crowns and no one will know which NFT he will get?) It’s like some kind of lottery, right?)
David – Seascape Founder:
Yes, the odds will vary depending on the amount of CWS spent. We have developed a provably fair system for this and the success rates will also be clearly displayed in the game as well so the player can make the decision with the best-earning potential!
Different NFTs will vary in type, character, scarcity, and quality. This will definitely impact the APY earned in the staking saloon, and should create a good secondary market for NFTs on exchanges such as Opensea and Rarible.
Btw this is all exclusive info we haven’t shared in other groups!
Mary | Satoshi Club:
Do you plan your own NFT Marketplace?)
D| Satoshi Club:
Awesome! you did choose the right place for this😄thank you!
Mary | Satoshi Club:
We like exclusive here😉🎉
Nicky:
In the long term, yes. Because we are also exploring cross-chain NFT trading and will try something on Polkadot. But in the short term, we just want to adapt the most popular NFT standard and reach as many users as we can. And we also have partnership with Opensea, so in the beginning, we encourage our players to trade there freely.
Mary | Satoshi Club:
You have so many plans and they are so complex😉 sure, you have very good investors to realize everything you want.
Mary | Satoshi Club:
Can you tell us a bit about them?
D| Satoshi Club:
Do have plans to integrate your own token in Opensea market? for people who want to buy NFTs for your currency? to be honest, I’m not sure if it possible, but I’ve heard rumors about this possibility😄
David – Seascape Founder:
Absolutely, over the last year, we have received support, advice, and capital from a number of great institutions that are well-known in the blockchain space and have helped bring many projects to huge success. LD Capital, Spark Digital, and TRGC are a few of the investors we’ve had that have provided us with tons of valuable advice and connections that have taken us to unimagined heights!
Also, this is another group exclusive, but we have recently been backed by a major exchange. We cannot release specific details yet, but I guarantee it will make our early adopters very happy when they hear the news!
Mary | Satoshi Club:
News soon?😉
Nicky:
Yep,😁 Next week.
Mary | Satoshi Club:
Sure, Satoshi Club will be among the first you will share this news with, right?😀
David – Seascape Founder:
Of course, you will be the first to know!
Nicky:
Absolutely!
Mary | Satoshi Club:
Thank you for your answers 👍 Ready to proceed or you want to add something?
Nicky:
Ready, let’s do the next question.
D| Satoshi Club:
Q3 from Telegram user @Korryl
Seascape Network using Rebasing Mechanism, as I know there is so much project already used this mechanism. So what is the specialty that Seascape projects as a project who using Rebase Mechanism?
David – Seascape Founder:
Actually, our rebasing mechanic has been rebranded to the PayWave, which is a unique way to redistribute profits from our games and directly to our token holders. This is done entirely via the token smart contract and we believe it will be a great way to make the holders feel like they are truly a part of the Seascape Ecosystem.
Nicky:
Yeah, like David said. Just let me also explain a bit more here, the PayWave mechanic will use tokens spent not only in BLOCKLORDS but in all games in the Seascape ecosystem. The incentives for using the Crowns in games will vary depending on the game or the user. In the DeFi games, Crowns will have to be spent or invested to earn better returns or to mint NFTs. In more traditional games like BLOCKLORDS, they will be spent to acquire in-game currencies, items, or armies, which will make players more powerful.
At the core, the idea is simple. Incentivize users to spend Crowns by providing excellent games where spending could prove to be very profitable to the user.
Mary | Satoshi Club:
Ok. As I know in rebase projects amount of tokens which person holds in his wallet can change because of rebase happens. Will it be the same with Crowns?
Or a person should perform some action?
David – Seascape Founder:
Crowns will never be removed from your balance. They can be added when a PayWave is triggered, but that is it 🙂 it can only be a positive change. And the good part is that we are not creating new tokens to make this happen. Only the tokens that were spent in-game are redistributed!
Mary | Satoshi Club:
Oh, that’s clear! Thank you 😀 I like positive changes 😂
D| Satoshi Club:
This PayWave mechanism will be work on exchanges? if the user holds tokens on CEX he or she also could get profit from redistribution?
David – Seascape Founder:
This will have to be worked out with each exchange individually, but it is implemented directly in the token smart contract so there is no reason this shouldn’t be implemented directly in exchanges. We have tested it out for users with their tokens in liquidity pools, and this has not been an issue at all.
D| Satoshi Club:
Gotcha 👍 Thanks for the answers! next question is ready…
Q4 from Telegram user @shabeeb6035
Seascape wants to keep all the assets connected to the big chains like ETH, regarding the next ETH 2.0 release, what are your expectations, do you think this will benefit your project?
Nicky:
Most definitely! ETH 2.0 is going slow but it is getting better every single day. We have developed a lot of smart contract protocols but so far Ethereum is still unrivaled, both in quality, user acquisition, and value. As a creator of products, this is something we need to always keep in mind if we want to attract users. We have to build where the users are!
Layer 2 solutions have a lot of potentials, as do bridge protocols, but as long as Ethereum is king we will be sure to be connected to it with all of our products so that users can quickly monetize their assets instead of being stuck somewhere with no buyers. We expect ETH 2.0 will accelerate the growth of blockchain in general as it will provide more scalability and we will be there to offer DeFi gaming to anyone interested in that ecosystem.
D| Satoshi Club:
So liquidity is the most important aspect😉
Mary | Satoshi Club:
Yes, users are, but we’re really crying because of fees. And I wonder why no one us talking about the fact that users have to pay for l2 usage😂
David – Seascape Founder:
Yes, and the transfer to and from eth needs to be paid as well. There are a lot of issues to be solved with layer 2 still, and we are hoping to solve some of them ourselves, especially on the user experience side.
David – Seascape Founder:
We will definitely launch layer 2 solutions with no fees 🙂 but it’s important they are connected to eth where all the liquidity currently is.
Mary | Satoshi Club:
No fees? But once we will need to pay, right?
Mary | Satoshi Club:
This would be great💪 Sure, your users will appreciate your efforts 😉 And the next question is waiting for you😉 ready for it?
David – Seascape Founder:
Yup, ready
D| Satoshi Club:
Q5 from Telegram user @konditer_rolex
Player-Created-Coins will allow users and game developers to create their own in-game currencies. How can these currencies be backed up? Is it theoretically possible that these in-game currencies could be used for fraudulent purposes? Will it be possible to peg PCC to real currencies?
David – Seascape Founder:
Our plan is to build an in-game system similar to what MakerDAO is doing with the DAI stablecoin. The idea is that users will use Crowns (and possibly Seascape NFTs) as collateral when they issue their new coin. In this way, we can guarantee a set value for the newly minted token based on the underlying value of the Crowns that are backing it. In this way, the PCCs will be pegged to the real value of the market as long as Crown’s trading volume and value are stable.
Mary | Satoshi Club:
Smart move 😉
David – Seascape Founder:
By gamifying the PCC process, we will make it much easier and fun to actually create your own token, without the need to learn smart contract development. This will be a powerful tool for game developers, and also a possible mechanic directly within the games. Something we will explore with BLOCKLORDS.
Mary | Satoshi Club:
Will be it expensive?
D| Satoshi Club:
Good question😉
David – Seascape Founder:
Not necessarily. Similar to how a MakerDAO vault can be created with 10 dollars in ETH, we will not place huge restrictions on the amount of tokens required to create a PCC. The user just has to figure out a model that works for them!
Mary | Satoshi Club:
It’s great 🎉 every game will have its own kingdom 😂
D| Satoshi Club:
With its own currency
Mary | Satoshi Club:
Yes😉
David – Seascape Founder:
Exactly, when you control the coin, you are the true king!
D| Satoshi Club:
Thank you, guys! and the last question for you in this part…
David – Seascape Founder:
And will be able to tax that coin as well of course. Yes, ready!
D| Satoshi Club:
Q6 from Telegram user @johana0012
Each player who owns Crowns will receive a weekly pass drop. On the basis that they calculate the percentage of what each player will receive? Are they the same for all of them or are there any passing differences?
Nicky:
The Paywave distribution is calculated based on the weight of the tokens you hold. So the more you hold the Crowns, the more Paywave distribution you will get.
Mary | Satoshi Club:
Do you have any articles explaining this?
How many tokens will be in circulation at the start? after the launch
Nicky:
As mentioned in the answer to the previous question, our token holder will always get a positive reward. And for sure, we will release articles explaining all details about Paywave, including formulas and what’s gonna be the distribution milestones.
Mary | Satoshi Club:
Great👍
Mary | Satoshi Club:
Ready for the part of the live question?
David – Seascape Founder:
The initial supply at launch will be very tight. In total it will be fewer than 600k tokens that are fully unlocked at launch. With all the news and announcements and products we have locked up, it is going to be a wild ride! The remaining tokens will be released very slowly over the course of the next 5-10 years.
Yes, let’s do the community questions!
Mary | Satoshi Club:
Let’s go 🚀
PART 2.Questions about the Seascape Network project from the live chat of the telegram community.
In this part, we open a chat for the crypto community for 120 seconds. Then the guests from the Seascape Network crypto project choose the top 10 questions. The 10 crypto enthusiasts have earned cryptocurrency in the sum of 100$.
Q – 1 from a telegram user @gerybodag
What do you think about other projects with NFT concepts, such as Enjin, Decentraland, and DEGO? Does Seascape currently have plans to cooperate with other NFT projects?
David – Seascape Founder:
here is definitely a lot of room for cooperation with other NFT projects. As Nicky mentioned we are already partnered with Opensea who is at the heart of the NFT collectible space, and we plan to do several integrations with other NFT projects, incorporating them directly into our games. I do not have any specific partnerships to announce yet but it is something we are looking at very closely.
Q – 2 from a telegram user @Baby_Crypto
How can I earn NFT tokens on the Seascape platform? Will I be able to buy or sell Seascape NFT on Opensea or just on your platform? Thx.
David – Seascape Founder:
As previously mentioned, the NFTs will be minted directly by you users in the NFT BRAWL game. This will be the main way of minting the tokens and anyone can do it when we have game events running live. Those who mint the NFTs will be able to sell them on Opensea or other exchanges if they wish or stake them directly in the STAKING SALOON game if they prefer to get the CWS rewards themselves.
Q – 3 from a telegram user @Calebkure
How well would you spread awareness of$morpheus lab escpially where their native languages are not same as yours?
David – Seascape Founder:
Our games are going to be localized in a multitude of languages directly at launch. This will be the first step of reaching as many communities as possible. We will also establish various groups in all major languages to make sure all our followers have good customer service channels to join if they need any help with the projects whatsoever.
Q – 4 from a telegram user @apocan99
Can you provide some information about ICE Viaduct, what is the role of it in the Seascape platform?
Nicky:
Since we are also developing on Polkadot, we need a Bridge that serves to link with other chains and achieve cross-chain function, we call it ICE Viaduct.
The viaduct serves as the Seascape platform’s connection to the outside world. It will be able to connect to a variety of Polkadot parachains, as well as other established protocols such as Ethereum, Algorand, and more.
By letting our games and the store platform work as a hub connected to the entire decentralized economy, we do not lock users in and allow them to migrate their assets however they wish.
This is one of our long-term goals, and it’s gonna takes time to really achieve a functional version. But we like to invite all users to grow and enjoy this exploring journey together!
Q – 5 from a telegram user @cryptofollower
I never sell my NFT’s. If it possible to stake the earned NFT rewards and earn more from staking them?
David – Seascape Founder:
The longer you stake them, the more you will earn, so this is a solid strategy if you want to maximize your return per NFT, but if the token is staked in the game to earn CWS it will have to be burned when claiming. That said if you prefer collecting the NFT itself that is definitely an option you can take. We will also implement different ways of earning for other NFT holders in the future for users like you who want to hold on to their NFTs while still earning an income!
Q – 6 from a telegram user @tuvalunia
Can we add an existing game to your platform or do we need to develop it according to the needs of your system?
Nicky:
We are happy to have game designers and developers join our platform. In the short term, we can help devs implement $Crowns payment method into their games and grow users and revenue together with us. This year, we will provide DeFi gameplay SDK, so devs can easily use it to add DeFi gameplay into their games.
So, yes, it could be an existing game, and we will help you to implement it with Crypto payment and DeFi gameplay SDK.
If you are a game dev and want to join us, please email us: [email protected] and we will back to you soon.
Q – 7 from a telegram user @Joshblaze
What gives you the confidence of success in this project?
David – Seascape Founder:
A few things, but mainly our experience in the industry, the quality of our games, the investors we have supporting us, the marketing teams we are working with, and most importantly our team and the community! These are the core pillars that we believe will make Seascape the top DeFi gaming platform!
Q – 8 from a telegram @BERTA2020
Many projects show some of their key features to attract investors, users, etc … Can you tell me what are your key features with which your products differ from others in the DeFi?
Nicky:
By taking some of the core concepts of defi and turning them into easy-to-access mini-games, we are aiming to lower the bar of complexity that is linked with most defi system. In this way we want to achieve two things: 1. to make defi mechanics more fun and exciting to existing blockchain users. 2. To draw in a new crowd who isn’t familiar with blockchain tech but maybe used to more traditional mobile or casino games and who wants to earn real rewards with their time spent playing.
Once you unlock the potential to earn while you play, it will draw in a lot of new users who will help spread crypto adoption to previously unimagined heights!
Q – 9 from a telegram user @JoanaZ
I have understood that after the token launch Seascape Will offer an “LP GAME” so can you give us more details about this?
David – Seascape Founder:
hat is right, our LP Mining game, also known as PROFIT CIRCUS, will offer great APY rewards for users who lock up their CWS-ETH tokens in the game smart contract. We think this is a great way to reward our early supporters for providing much needed liquidity into the volatile crypto markets. LP mining is a revolutionary concept and something we are very excited about, and we are excited to have been able to turn that into a real full-fledged game!
Q -10 from a telegram user @KeymerS
Is it really necessary to implement a cross-chain bridge in gaming stores? Will it give them better gameplay features or greater decentralization? Or did Seascape just develop this idea to attract more users of the multiple chains?
Nicky:
In the short term, our game products will be stick on Etherume and some L2 solutions like BSC. Our team truly believe in users should have full right to handle their gaming assets and we should be able to provide a service or tool that player can transfer his assets to whatever blockchain he likes and trade there with value. That’s why we want to build a cross-chain bridge in a gaming store. And this is one of our long term goals, we hope our users will be happy to explore this journey together with us.
Part 3 – Quiz about project
In the final part, we tested the knowledge in terms of the Seascape Network project. They’ve prepared 4 questions for this part, so everyone could be a part and answer. Participants had 10 minutes to answer. 300$ was distributed between the winners.
