            <content:encoded><![CDATA[<h3>UNOPND Quarterly Recap — Q3, 2023</h3><figure><img alt="" src="https://cdn-images-1.medium.com/max/961/1*cbsvTU2tuRsyEeWBWtE0pw.png" /></figure><p>We’re excited to come back with a new Quarterly Recap.</p><p>In this Summer, <strong><em>UNOPND</em></strong> saw a number of significant milestones for the projects being incubated. We eagerly anticipate to see more accomplishments from our team’s diligent efforts before the year concludes.</p><ul><li><strong><em>Derby Stars</em></strong> finally released their highly anticipated alpha version of the game with many new features by introducing Core system, free-to-play mechanics, rental horses and mobile build.</li><li><strong><em>XOCIETY</em></strong> completed the minting of their first NFT collection called ‘Frontier Avatar’ and completed several holder tests with amazing feedbacks.</li><li><strong><em>DAVA</em></strong> has been pilot testing various tools for their Composable Avatar System. With the information collected from the test results and feedback, they will improve the product and have a more in-depth market analysis.</li><li><strong><em>Modhaus</em></strong> announced a couple exciting comebacks and conducted Gravity NFT votes that had the community buzzing.</li></ul><p>We also had one of the busiest times of the year, mingling with various partners and participating in various events during Korea Blockchain Week 2023 and Token 2049.</p><p>Without further delay, let’s dive straight into the exciting updates projects have to share!</p><h3>Derby Stars</h3><blockquote><strong>Raise, Race and Glory!<br>Free-To-Play Derby Stars Is All About Fantasy Horse Racing and Breeding</strong></blockquote><figure><img alt="" src="https://cdn-images-1.medium.com/max/1024/0*uqYHaLZwTN8Pg5M8" /></figure><h4>Successful launch of $DSRUN</h4><p>In August, <strong><em>Derby Stars</em></strong> marked a significant milestone with the pre-alpha version launch. The launch included a pre-registration phase, the introduction of starter and pre-alpha packs to assist new users, and the release of $DSRUN token listed on Bybit. Currently, users can trade the token on Uniswap using their preferred Web3 wallets like Metamask as well.</p><h3>Derby Stars🐴🌟 l Play on Android now📱 on Twitter: &quot;🥳Derby Stars Alpha Build Launch is official!🎇Let&#39;s all run together in the world of Derby Stars!Check latest Medium article for overview👇[https://t.co/kUi7rw6yPq] pic.twitter.com/SjZI06q2gy / Twitter&quot;</h3><p>🥳Derby Stars Alpha Build Launch is official!🎇Let&#39;s all run together in the world of Derby Stars!Check latest Medium article for overview👇[https://t.co/kUi7rw6yPq] pic.twitter.com/SjZI06q2gy</p><h4>Alpha Build Release — PC and mobile</h4><p>The alpha build showcased two key features:</p><p><strong>Core System</strong></p><ul><li>During the Early Access phase, training was often perceived as repetitive and in need of enhancement. In order to address this concern, the team introduced the Core system, aiming to instill a sense of excitement and drive among users during each training session by offering rewarding outcomes.</li><li>Consequently, <strong><em>Derby Stars</em></strong> made the decision to transform the training results into collectible items that players could strategically utilize across various competitions. For instance, a horse equipped with a Stamina core would gain a competitive edge in long-distance races, while a horse with a Speed core would perform better in short-distance races.</li></ul><p><strong>Rental System</strong></p><ul><li>The introduction of a rental system has transformed our Web3 game into a free-to-play experience, allowing non-NFT holders to play without any hurdles. In other words, players without horse NFTs can immediately start playing the game and engage in training and PvP races using rental horses.</li><li>New users can easily borrow and play the game, but if they desire greater profits, they have the option to purchase NFTs. We believe this system will make the game more accessible and enjoyable without financial exposure.</li></ul><p>The successful launch has been a collaborative effort, involving over 50 guilds and communities that have partnered with them in hosting events, promotions, and engaging AMA sessions. This initiative brought together numerous local partners from seven different countries, all working toward taking <strong><em>Derby Stars</em></strong> to new heights.</p><p>In the meantime, the team has seen a high demand for a mobile build. So they released the Android APK on September 4, which will be optimized over the next few months. The mobile build will provide a more immersive user experience and make <strong><em>Derby Stars</em></strong> more accessible especially in Southeast Asia, where it has a significant audience.</p><h3>Derby Stars🐴🌟 l Play on Android now📱 on Twitter: &quot;Derby Stars Available on phones 📞Dreams do come true🌠Download Derby Stars at https://t.co/0fKWo4dnBk and download APK to play right in your hands🫲🫱Please check [https://t.co/Bo1iD9Yo07] for install guide⚠️ONLY download from Derby Stars official website⚠️ pic.twitter.com/L61zyKNngt / Twitter&quot;</h3><p>Derby Stars Available on phones 📞Dreams do come true🌠Download Derby Stars at https://t.co/0fKWo4dnBk and download APK to play right in your hands🫲🫱Please check [https://t.co/Bo1iD9Yo07] for install guide⚠️ONLY download from Derby Stars official website⚠️ pic.twitter.com/L61zyKNngt</p><p>To celebrate Alpha Launch, <strong><em>Derby Stars</em></strong> team had prepared a thrilling pre-registration event with gifts including the Unique Random Box (Non-tradable).</p><p>This exclusive event was planned to reward the early supporters and provide them with abundant information about <strong><em>Derby Stars</em></strong>.

Launching a detailed Roadmap to show their commitment to clear progress and delivering the community access to it. The team also laid out their vision for the next Milestone of development, giving details on new events and ways to engage in the XOCIETY Project.</p><p>The biggest development for <strong><em>XOCIETY</em></strong> was of course the launch and selling out of its first NFT collection, the culmination of months of work in tough market conditions. The team gave access in two trenches, Redlist for those who showed their commitment in the community and in Mintlist phase for partners and others who got involved.</p><blockquote>“Our <strong>Redlist phase saw an astounding 90% of the NFTs being minted,</strong> with <strong>the remainder moving into the Mintlist phase</strong>. Incredibly, the <strong>Mintlisted minting was a fast-moving success, with every available NFT being snatched up within a mere thirty seconds!</strong> This level of enthusiasm and support has blown us away.” <strong>— Ryan Chown, Head of Community</strong></blockquote><p>Post-mint <strong><em>XOCIETY</em></strong>’s Frontier NFT Avatars spent time evolving from DNA to a full NFT, check out the process below.</p><iframe src="https://cdn.embedly.com/widgets/media.html?src=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.canva.com%2Fdesign%2FDAFpEdOkxRM%2Fview%3Fembed%26meta&amp;display_name=Canva&amp;url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.canva.com%2Fdesign%2FDAFpEdOkxRM%2Fview&amp;key=d04bfffea46d4aeda930ec88cc64b87c&amp;type=text%2Fhtml&amp;schema=canva" width="1920" height="1080" frameborder="0" scrolling="no"><a href="https://medium.com/media/b452f304eaa75468eeb944d0517655b4/href">https://medium.com/media/b452f304eaa75468eeb944d0517655b4/href</a></iframe><p>One of the most successful events of <strong><em>XOCIETY</em></strong> during the last quarter has been the successful running of its very first Holder Test. <strong><em>XOCIETY</em></strong>’s NFT holding community is still growing and with only minimal work done to optimize the test so far it was amazing to get a large percentage of the 999 holders to play.

They have prioritized the development of the NFT minting, airdrop and CRM tools which will be critical for the ecosystem. It’s our pleasure to announce that <strong><em>DAVA</em></strong>’s initial development phases are now accomplished.</p><p>The current version was pilot tested with several partners from April through June, and the results exceeded their expectations. They were able to analyze not only user characteristics, but also acquisition funnels. With these insights, partner projects successfully identified their target audience and ran events to drop NFT as rewards based on their on-chain activities.</p><p>In July, the team focused on improving further functionalities of the tool with the information collected from the test results and feedback. They have been putting effort into further development since August.</p><p>The next step covers two phases as follows.</p><p>(1) User onboarding: Selecting a tool or solution is essential for an individual project to ensure their product is aligned with their users while optimizing their service. Therefore, <strong><em>DAVA</em></strong> team is building tools that embody the essence of web3, venturing into territories previously uncharted in the web3 landscape.</p><p>(2) Entering into the ecosystem: It is important to onboard the projects and users into the <strong><em>DAVA</em></strong> ecosystem to utilize our composable NFT system. The team believes the composable NFT technology as a tool will increase the number of users and create a virtuous cycle in their ecosystem. The end goal is to define the roles of existing <strong><em>DAVA</em></strong> NFT holders and newcomers in this newly organized environment and create a sustainable business model. Once this is finished, They will keep doing additional pilot tests to improve the product and have a more in-depth market analysis.</p><p>In the meantime, a few months ago, a number of misunderstandings placed the project and its members in a challenging position, which significantly impacted the team’s dynamics. They were not able to focus on development to respond the situation, and unfortunately, it caused some collaboration discussions to fall apart.</p><p>Nevertheless, the team continues to work hard despite facing broader economic downturn and unforeseen circumstances.

            <content:encoded><![CDATA[<h3>Good Morning Community Managers!</h3><h4>GMCM aims to become a Community for Community Builders.</h4><blockquote>GMCM stands for Good Morning Community Managers and is a networking event designed to bring community builders together and share insights which is the most important while undiscovered sector in Web3’s ecosystem</blockquote><p>In June, we hosted the second GMCM successfully to conclude the first half of the year. As an official side event of Seoul Meta Week 2023, the event received much more attention than the first one. As a result, more than 150 Web3 builders from 70 different companies, 5 university academies, and freelancers attended the event, making it one of the biggest events ever held at Hashed Lounge.</p><p>So, what happened at GMCM? Let’s find out! 🔥</p><figure><img alt="" src="https://cdn-images-1.medium.com/max/1024/1*QBU--zBqp50mMJhYKILuxQ.png" /></figure><h3>Building Sustainable Web3 Community</h3><p>Unlike the 1st Meetup, this time was not limited to community builders but open to all Web3 builders.</p><p>While most projects agree on the importance of community in Web3, there are challenges in its management. In particular, creating a strong community, where both early users and newcomers feel a sense of belonging and actively engage in the project, is very tough. This is not only community managers’ task but for all Web3 builders as there are many important factors such as tokenomics, business model, and in-demand utility to build a sustainable community.</p><p>The event consisted of keynote sessions by Hyunmyung Kim from UNOPND and Jaemin Park from Modhaus. Following the keynote sessions, a panel session took place involving a diverse range of Web3 builders, which offered a multitude of unique insights and professional viewpoints.</p><p>Overall, the networking event was more than just a gathering of professionals — it was a thriving ecosystem of Web3 builders. Throughout the event, there was a dynamic exchange of business cards and QR codes, as relationships were being built not just for the present but also for the future. It was clear that everyone understood the value of these connections within the Web3 space.</p><h3>Keynote 1: Web3 Marketing Overview</h3><p><strong><em>— Hyunmyung Kim (Marketing Manager, UNOPND)</em></strong></p><figure><img alt="" src="https://cdn-images-1.medium.com/max/1024/1*TTpayq8xHxHoJ1MxE3Rpuw.png" /><figcaption>Hyunmyung Kim, Marketing Manager at UNOPND presenting Web3 Marketing Overview</figcaption></figure><p>As a “Marketing Guy” of UNOPND, Hyunmyung shared his expertise on the fundamental of marketing, highlighted the differences between Web2 and Web3 marketing, and elaborated on his ultimate objectives as a Web3 marketing manager.</p><ul><li>Marketing is 1) understanding customer needs and desires, 2) communicating the benefits of products and services, and 3) leading potential customers to take action, such as making a purchase or achieving a specific goal.</li><li>Web3 marketing works in the same framework, but it requires a different approach. For example, a Web3 project needs interactive marketing channels like Discord and Twitter. Also, marketing campaigns should be more user-centric and users should be able to participate in community management, collaborations and partnerships, airdrops and giveaways, loyalty programs, etc.</li><li>However, the Web3 marketing strategies above still have huge limitations due to the fragmented Web2 and Web3 user data.</li></ul><p>There are 3 key limitations to this situation and to solve this problem, various marketing solutions were introduced.</p><ul><li><strong>How to reach?<br></strong>It is hard to target Web3 users with ads due to the lack of behavioral data, Web2 platform policies, and the low traffic of Web3 native social networks. However, Web3 Ad Networks (<a href="https://www.slise.xyz/">Slise</a> and <a href="https://www.addressable.io/">Addressable</a>) are trying to solve this question by leveraging On-Off chain data. While those products are at the early stage, there’s much room to grow when it’s combined with in-app user data and enable the Cost Per Transaction ad model.</li><li><strong>How to track?<br></strong>It’s difficult to measure performance in Web3, due to the lack of wallet attribution. <a href="https://www.spindl.xyz/">Spindl</a> introduces the solution to track attribution from Web2 ads to Web3 transactions (ex. sales) which enables conversion tracking and optimizing.</li><li><strong>How to retain?<br></strong>It is also important to retain users, not only acquire users. <a href="https://www.askdialog.com/">Dialog</a> was the solution to diversify messaging channels and build a CRM with the personalization of users.</li></ul><p><strong>As the Web3 market grows, performance tracking and optimization will be essential for Web3 marketing in the near future.</strong></p><h3>Keynote 2: Understanding the Culture</h3><p><strong><em>— Jaemin Park (Community Manager, Modhaus)</em></strong></p><figure><img alt="" src="https://cdn-images-1.medium.com/max/1024/1*Kfw6jv-nXo3T1vYO5x62eg.png" /><figcaption>Jaemin Park, Community Manager at Modhaus introducing tripleS and Objekt.</figcaption></figure><p>Jaemin shared his experiences and insights from managing the fan communities of tripleS and ARTMS. He explained what makes idol group communities different from other projects and how strategies he used for fan communities can be applied to projects in general.</p><p>As the first decentralized idol project organized by Modhaus, tripleS incorporates Web3 technologies as follows.</p><ul><li>tripleS regularly reveals new members on its official YouTube channel and releases their NFTs at the same time.</li><li>Voting is conducted within the COSMO app using ‘COMO’, which can be earned by converting NFTs.</li><li>Based on the voting results, fans can choose unit group members and the title track of the comeback album.</li></ul><p>The idea of decentralized voting comes from the needs of the fan community. First, fans want to participate in artist activities. Second, fans desire to authenticate and recognize each other for their own participation. Lastly, fans would like to behave as a community rather than as individuals. And these needs can be fully addressed by incorporating blockchain technology.</p><ul><li>The desire to participate in artist activities can be resolved by allowing fans to trade NFTs with each other, vote, and ensure transparency to know that they are directly participating as fans.</li><li>In addition, fan activities cannot be easily authenticated/recognized on the existing Web2, but this can be solved with SBT on the blockchain, which is permanent and immutable.</li><li>Lastly, a group of people become fans and build a community, and blockchain can provide a transparent community so that a more cohesive fandom can be formed.</li></ul><p>Jaemin also shared valuable advice regarding the use of Discord, a popular platform for Web3 communities. He explained how to increase engagement by customizing Discord to make it more convenient for users. Also, colorful content within Discord contributes to increasing user retention. In fact, Modhaus offers a variety of content, including Discord Live, pre-debut sneak peeks, Objekt trading, and random events to keep users engage.</p><p>He said every Web3 project should be run like a fandom business. That means it’s crucial to foster emotional bonding that goes beyond economic gain.</p><p><strong>In addition, he emphasized that a community manager’s role is to give users clear guidelines while delivering engaging content so that they would not leave.</strong></p><h3>Building Sustainable Web3 Business and Community</h3><p><strong><em>Panelists: Ji hun Lee (CPO, </em></strong><a href="https://www.modernlion.io/"><strong><em>Modern Lion</em></strong></a><strong><em>), Agwn (CEO, </em></strong><a href="https://ludium.world/"><strong><em>Ludium</em></strong></a><strong><em>), Jaemin Park (Community Manager, </em></strong><a href="https://www.mod-haus.com/"><strong><em>Modhaus</em></strong></a><strong><em>) and Ryot (Studio Director, </em></strong><a href="https://fidelion.io/"><strong><em>Fidelion</em></strong></a><strong><em>).</em></strong></p><figure><img alt="" src="https://cdn-images-1.medium.com/max/1024/1*FkjCw3Q4EKb0mnrghBno2Q.png" /><figcaption>From left to right, Moderator Goran (Host, Algoran TV), Ji hun Lee (CPO, Modern Lion), Jaemin Park (Community Manager, Modhaus), Agwn (CEO, Ludium), Ryot (Studio Director, Fidelion)</figcaption></figure><p>The panel session brought together specialists from various projects to engage in a broad and in-depth discussion about challenges and strategies for constructing sustainable businesses and communities.</p><p><strong><em>Goran, Host of Algoran TV</em></strong>, led the panel session as a moderator. Her wit and expertise captivated the audience, making the session that lasted an hour thoroughly engaging.</p><p>When she asked a question, everyone was looking for a microphone to answer with enthusiasm. Passionate keynote speakers graced the stage, sharing their success stories and challenges, and inspiring the audience with their relentless determination and innovative spirit.</p><p>Despite the fact that they all had different ideas, they agreed that <strong><em>we all are still early</em></strong>, meaning that there is no clear solution to the current problems of building sustainable Web3 businesses and communities.</p><p><strong>According to all panelists, Web3 builders need to continue to test different models and apply feedback and changes from the community.</strong></p><figure><img alt="" src="https://cdn-images-1.medium.com/max/1024/1*o8QygtrQ2tzEIgdsdSXCIw.png" /></figure><h3>See you at the next GMCM!</h3><p>The event was a huge success! We would like to thank you for being a part of our event. It was inspiring to see so many passionate individuals gathered in one place, sharing ideas, insights, and forming new connections.</p><p>We want to build the GMCM community bigger to let Web3 builders find more opportunities to connect and make synergy. We look forward to seeing you at our next event, where we can continue this fascinating journey together.</p><p><strong><em>Stay UNOPND &amp; join GMCM, let’s unlock the world of Web3 together.</em></strong></p><img src="https://medium.com/_/stat?event=post.clientViewed&referrerSource=full_rss&postId=cd16173dff59" width="1" height="1" alt="">]]></content:encoded>

In June, the DAVA team published a blog post titled “The Last Two Years of DAVA, and What’s Next,” a retrospective of how DAVA started and evolved from July 2021 to now.</p><figure><img alt="" src="https://cdn-images-1.medium.com/max/800/1*McyGxNMHqbxzOj4KLLBhlQ.png" /><figcaption>The future plan of DAVA that the team has shared with the community</figcaption></figure><p>We have been through a bunch of milestones and even pivots, but the team continues to move forward. DAVA has initiated a second round of pilot testing with partners, as it refines its B2B marketing tool. The tool is designed for more than just doing airdrops. It’s created to assist in targeted marketing campaigns.</p><p>Clearly, if companies want to utilize composable NFT technology, they need the capability to distribute NFTs for marketing campaigns. We should be able to verify that these NFTs are received by the intended people so that we can proceed to CRM(; Customer Relationship Management). The tool is in development to include not only the drop function but also the analytics feature. Through this process, any companies or individual users leveraging the service will naturally integrate into the DAVA ecosystem.</p><p>Following the pilot testing, we will collect user feedback to further refine the product’s feasibility. The team is set to roll out a comprehensive service by the end of the year.</p><blockquote><strong><em>DAVA’s Official Links</em></strong><a href="https://davaproject.com/"><strong><em><br></em></strong><em>Website</em></a><em> | </em><a href="https://twitter.com/davaprojectNFT"><em>Twitter</em></a><em> | </em><a href="https://discord.com/invite/K4rvgQMfH3"><em>Discord</em></a><em> | </em><a href="https://davaproject.medium.com/"><em>Medium</em></a></blockquote><h3>Modhaus Updates</h3><p>June was nothing short of exhilarating for both ARTMS and tripleS, with major announcements, releases, and groundbreaking achievements.

Through these events, we shared our insights about Web3 as a technology, business, and community.

This feedback serves as an encouraging sign, indicating that the pilot is on track for a successful transition to live service, even with limited resources.</p><p>Based on the result of the first pilot, the team will gather comprehensive feedback to further enhance the current version and introduce additional features in the second pilot. These features include an on-chain data analytics tool and a CRM tool, aligning with the roadmap shared with the community. Initially scheduled for early June, the second pilot has been rescheduled to late June/early July to accommodate partner availability.</p><p>Once the second pilot is successfully done, the team plans to proceed with the development of the full version, integrating it into the DAVA ecosystem. The team anticipates the full version to be ready by mid-July, with an estimated timeline of 3 to 3.5 months. When the full version is completed and integrated into the DAVA ecosystem, we expect it to have a positive impact on the revitalization of the ecosystem.</p><p>Despite the challenging conditions, the DAVA team remains committed and focused on the project’s advancement.

They’ve added new icons, a new track named “Gloria” for both day and night racing, and renewed animations, such as the Foal’s special skill effect.</p><iframe src="https://cdn.embedly.com/widgets/media.html?src=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.youtube.com%2Fembed%2F4L8GYpGQvkA%3Ffeature%3Doembed&amp;display_name=YouTube&amp;url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.youtube.com%2Fwatch%3Fv%3D4L8GYpGQvkA&amp;image=https%3A%2F%2Fi.ytimg.com%2Fvi%2F4L8GYpGQvkA%2Fhqdefault.jpg&amp;key=a19fcc184b9711e1b4764040d3dc5c07&amp;type=text%2Fhtml&amp;schema=youtube" width="854" height="480" frameborder="0" scrolling="no"><a href="https://medium.com/media/9853d3bb7e9780e75028dcf0475fc80c/href">https://medium.com/media/9853d3bb7e9780e75028dcf0475fc80c/href</a></iframe><p>Derby Stars has also released two videos.

Research is already underway in the Ethereum ecosystem under the name of dynamic NFTs, and other chains are continuing to work on NFTs with changing state values, which means their attributes can change over time.</p><p>From a development perspective, the DAVA team has created an NFT minting tool, a voting system, an avatar creation tool, and is currently finalizing the development of an NFT drop tool. The primary development is expected to be completed by mid-May, and the team plans to upgrade it through various tests.</p><p>In terms of business, the team has confirmed pilot tests with two partners, which will utilize all or part of the aforementioned composableNFT system in their services and will be conducted before full-scale introduction to their products. While specific project names for these pilots cannot be revealed, the DAVA team will be running two pilots, one in late May and one in early June. Through these pilot tests, the team will validate its skills and thesis.</p><blockquote><strong><em>DAVA’s Official Links</em></strong><a href="https://davaproject.com/"><strong><em><br></em></strong><em>Website</em></a><em> | </em><a href="https://twitter.com/davaprojectNFT"><em>Twitter</em></a><em> | </em><a href="https://discord.com/invite/K4rvgQMfH3"><em>Discord</em></a><em> | </em><a href="https://davaproject.medium.com/"><em>Medium</em></a></blockquote><h4>XOCIETY</h4><p><strong>Shoot, Earn, Pioneer.

We’ve already covered 3 core topics,</p><p><a href="https://medium.com/xocietyofficial/no-free-lunch-in-xociety-1-a-healthy-economy-d90e19042270">**A Healthy Economy</a>** — How can scarcity make a better system, especially for games</p><p><a href="https://medium.com/xocietyofficial/no-free-lunch-in-xociety-2-resources-pt-1-37f750e0966c"><strong>Resources pt1</strong></a> — Resource scarcity, via the in-game item MOTUS.</p><p><a href="https://medium.com/xocietyofficial/the-role-of-creators-9bf225e60e5c">**The Role of Creators</a>** — Proper Incentives for creators, makes a better-curated world</p><p>It’s quite meaty stuff, so strap in and get up to speed with XOCIETY’s vision and how we’ll blend Web3 and gaming to make a powerful experience.</p><p><a href="https://xociety.io/"><strong>Website</strong></a><strong> | </strong><a href="https://twitter.com/xocietyofficial"><strong>Twitter</strong></a><strong> | </strong><a href="https://discord.com/invite/UJHaXBE4"><strong>Discord</strong></a></p><h4>DAVA Updates</h4><figure><img alt="" src="https://cdn-images-1.medium.com/max/1024/1*rm1GQN3aB_OTd_iv1cATFw.jpeg" /><figcaption>Design your own avatar</figcaption></figure><p>There are three main things that DAVA shared with the community last month:</p><ol><li>DAVA is focusing on making composable NFTs more accessible to the public.</li><li>The team will build on what it has developed to date to advance composable NFT technology and develop tools that are essential to building the ecosystem.</li><li>The team is focusing on technology rather than IP and prioritizing enterprise and collaboration with other projects over retail.</li></ol><p>In January, the team built the basic framework for the avatar ecosystem that DAVA has envisioned from the beginning of the project: NFT issuance tool and community voting system for NFTs.</p><p>The NFT minting tool, community voting system, and avatar customization tool are now running.</p><p>Since it’s always important to set a priority, DAVA is currently focusing on developing the “NFT drop tool”. It is a tool that allows partners who use DAVA’s avatar system to easily drop parts. At first glance, it might sound like it’s just a drop tool, but it’s not!</p><p>The simplest way to drop parts is to drop them to all users or to drop them to a certain wallet address.

            <content:encoded><![CDATA[<h3>UNOPND Monthly Recap — February</h3><figure><img alt="" src="https://cdn-images-1.medium.com/max/961/1*LjCD43-j1mGzIoTu7yn_lg.png" /></figure><p>February has been an exciting month with lots of new updates and developments. We are glad you’ve been part of the journey as UNOPND continues to grow.</p><p>This month, UNOPND hosted its first GMCM, a meetup for Web3 community builders, <strong><em>Derby Stars</em></strong> announced and launched the Early Access version of the game, tripleS of <strong><em>Modhaus</em></strong> marked successful debut with the song “Rising”, <strong><em>XOCIETY</em></strong> revealed its partnership with Ben Mauro (Halo, Call of Duty) and more.</p><p>Here are our key takeaways for February.</p><h3>GMCM</h3><p>On February 23rd, UNOPND hosted GMCM to provide a space where community managers can meet others Web3 builders and share their ideas and experiences. Nathan Kim, the Marketing Director from UNOPND and Agwn, CEO and Co-founder from <a href="https://ludium.oopy.io/">Ludium</a> (Web3 Onboarding Station) were the speakers to share their remarkable thoughts.</p><figure><img alt="" src="https://cdn-images-1.medium.com/max/1024/1*2gm3csozYsDyJKGg1QN1jg.png" /><figcaption>GMCM held in Hashed Lounge</figcaption></figure><p>Nathan Kim started the keynote introducing the roles of Web3 community managers and the importance of their work for the overall project. He also shared the challenges they will face over the years of community building and managing and how to overcome them, as the title was ‘The Way to Survive as Community Manager in Web3’.</p><figure><img alt="" src="https://cdn-images-1.medium.com/max/1024/1*-p_qwm5wkYs-Ce2NbJQR-w.png" /><figcaption>Nathan Kim (UNOPND) presenting his keynote</figcaption></figure><p>Agwn spoke about the difference between Web2 and Web3 community management. While Web2 platform’s goal is to make value by selling products to the community, Web3 protocol’s goal is to <em>make value by sharing compensation with community</em>. Community is no longer just a small voice from customers, it is more like building a ‘borderless’, ‘culture sharing’, and ‘plural’ ecosystem.</p><figure><img alt="" src="https://cdn-images-1.medium.com/max/1024/1*KkYG9vWqDqaiIpPCx-__kA.png" /><figcaption>Agwn (Ludium) showing the difference between Web2 &amp; Web3</figcaption></figure><p>The networking section was a great opportunity for community managers to connect with one another. Over 70 attendees including veteran community managers came to connect, learn from each other and collaborate on exciting projects within the Web3 industry.</p><h3>Modhaus</h3><figure><img alt="" src="https://cdn-images-1.medium.com/max/1024/1*tBzwYI7hL-ZYZzYqU9t8KA.jpeg" /><figcaption>Behind the scene of “Rising” MV</figcaption></figure><p><strong><em>Modhaus</em></strong> is an EnterTech startup with a vision to empower fans by producing artists from the bottom up. <strong><em>Modhaus</em></strong> aims to do this by leveraging NFT and blockchain technology and venturing into unprecedented territories.</p><iframe src="https://cdn.embedly.com/widgets/media.html?src=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.youtube.com%2Fembed%2F3TQd2ahq6oU%3Ffeature%3Doembed&amp;display_name=YouTube&amp;url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.youtube.com%2Fwatch%3Fv%3D3TQd2ahq6oU&amp;image=https%3A%2F%2Fi.ytimg.com%2Fvi%2F3TQd2ahq6oU%2Fhqdefault.jpg&amp;key=a19fcc184b9711e1b4764040d3dc5c07&amp;type=text%2Fhtml&amp;schema=youtube" width="854" height="480" frameborder="0" scrolling="no"><a href="https://medium.com/media/24e138e73436e063832e1ae199864bf1/href">https://medium.com/media/24e138e73436e063832e1ae199864bf1/href</a></iframe><p>On February 13th, tripleS made their long-awaited 10 member debut with their main song “Rising.” The main track “Rising” is especially meaningful as it was directly selected by the fans through a blockchain voting process called “Gravity” last December.</p><p>&lt;ASSEMBLE&gt; features 8 tracks — “Rising,” “Beam,” “Colorful,” “The Baddest,” “New Look” and “Chowall.” “Rising” focuses on girls chasing their dreams.

Because DAVA Eternal didn’t meet the expectation of the team, they had to determine restructuring and change the project’s direction. Especially since the team had to confront a question of whether the project was sustainable after spending all of the funds from the NFT sale.</p><p>As we all remember, FTX collapsed in November and the market started to freeze even more drastically, causing many Web3 projects to call it quits. <strong><em>DAVA</em></strong> was not immune to the impact, so it was impossible for the project to continue without a survival plan.</p><p>In late November, UNOPND, the incubator of <strong><em>DAVA</em></strong>, decided to support financial and human resources for the project. In return, UNOPND asked <strong><em>DAVA</em></strong> to do three things:</p><ol><li>Restructure the team — it’s not possible to maintain the existing team size without a substantial influx of funds</li><li>Stop developing DAVA Eternal — not only is it difficult to develop a game with only a handful of core people left, but this is essentially a call to return the project to the direction we envisioned in the early stages and focus on what this team is good at</li><li>Change in the leadership — in the sense that we need people who can fill in the gaps in the team</li></ol><p>As a result, the project is now run by five core developers from the <strong><em>DAVA</em></strong> team, with support from UNOPND in the areas of business development, marketing, and community. Also, GD Kim, COO of UNOPND, is now in charge of the project.</p><p><strong>Project direction<br></strong>The team would like to focus on developing the composable NFT system for mass adoption. NFTs are becoming popular at a very fast pace over the years, especially in the South Korean market, where the team is based, which is unparalleled by any other region.In particular, large enterprises are actively utilizing NFTs and are expected to do so more aggressively.</p><p>In this market transformation, the team believes that the demand for composable NFTs will inevitably increase, and the fact that several NFT blue-chip projects are adopting the concept of composability is an important sign.</p><p>With this perspective, <strong><em>DAVA</em></strong> intends to advance the composable NFT technology underlying the project and provide this technology to let various projects utilize it flexibly.</p><p><strong>Direction of DAVA Ecosystem</strong></p><figure><img alt="" src="https://cdn-images-1.medium.com/max/1024/1*3MYpACkjFFSdiS2VZTwa7g.jpeg" /></figure><p>In January of this year, we completed the deployment of a wearable minting tool and a voting system for wearable parts to allow anyone to create new parts to use and trade within the <strong><em>DAVA</em> </strong>ecosystem. We also have plans to remove maximize the diversity and decentralization of the ecosystem.</p><p>More details including how we plan to activate the community, the utility of the humanoid NFT will be shared through <strong><em>DAVA</em></strong>’s official channels soon.

It’s a place filled with sounds of laughter and conversation. Friends are busy catching up with each other and chatting about what they want to eat. The smell of freshly cooked food wafts through the air, creating an inviting and comforting atmosphere. It is such a place the <strong>Kentin Creative</strong> wants to create, where <strong>everyone can comfortably browse through their tastes and freely express their creativity.</strong></blockquote><p><strong>Kentin Creative</strong> is a Web3 video production studio that encourages creative collaboration and exploration. A word <em>Kentin</em> is originally from the word canteen or cafeteria where people gather and pick what they want or like to eat. Inspired by its vibrant energy, <strong>Kentin Creative strives to create a friendly atmosphere where ideas can be shared, discussed, and brought to life</strong><em>.</em></p><p>As a major partner of UNOPND, Kentin is responsible for all the creative production of UNOPND and its partner projects. With a team of passionate and experienced professionals, Kentin Creative takes pride in delivering innovative and engaging video content for each project.</p><p>We sat down with the Kentin Creative team, Sanghoon Cha, Head Director and Jimin Jeung, Lead Producer.

What was your career path up until this point?</strong></p><p><em>Sanghoon:</em> I started my career as a CG artist, because I was fascinated by the technology. As I gained more experience and became more professional, I went on to create game trailers, cinematic videos, music videos, advertisements, and other game cinematics.</p><p>I’ve also directed award-winning short independent films such as Wonderful World (2016), Exit (2013), Looking at the Sky (2012).</p><p>Several of the projects I was involved in are available on Youtube and have received many views and likes.</p><iframe src="https://cdn.embedly.com/widgets/media.html?src=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.youtube.com%2Fembed%2Fm1XHGGpIQOk%3Ffeature%3Doembed&amp;display_name=YouTube&amp;url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.youtube.com%2Fwatch%3Fv%3Dm1XHGGpIQOk&amp;image=https%3A%2F%2Fi.ytimg.com%2Fvi%2Fm1XHGGpIQOk%2Fhqdefault.jpg&amp;key=a19fcc184b9711e1b4764040d3dc5c07&amp;type=text%2Fhtml&amp;schema=youtube" width="854" height="480" frameborder="0" scrolling="no"><a href="https://medium.com/media/5537e70d0b9efc4ddf359841264e5540/href">https://medium.com/media/5537e70d0b9efc4ddf359841264e5540/href</a></iframe><iframe src="https://cdn.embedly.com/widgets/media.html?src=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.youtube.com%2Fembed%2FAr9yKqTS2gk%3Ffeature%3Doembed&amp;display_name=YouTube&amp;url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.youtube.com%2Fwatch%3Fv%3DAr9yKqTS2gk&amp;image=https%3A%2F%2Fi.ytimg.com%2Fvi%2FAr9yKqTS2gk%2Fhqdefault.jpg&amp;key=a19fcc184b9711e1b4764040d3dc5c07&amp;type=text%2Fhtml&amp;schema=youtube" width="854" height="480" frameborder="0" scrolling="no"><a href="https://medium.com/media/89cbad4e8fe6a91f371eaea2e92713dd/href">https://medium.com/media/89cbad4e8fe6a91f371eaea2e92713dd/href</a></iframe><p><em>Jimin:</em> I’m a 9-year Lead Producer and I still have a long way to go. I worked in various fields such as post-production, web agencies and advertising agencies, mainly creating product advertisements and key visuals for unpack events, and I mostly worked with overseas clients such as Netflix and Huawei.</p><p>I also built a video production company with my friends and operated it for two years. We made a lot of money too. Haha. When I first started working in this field, I was a 3D artist, but I found that I enjoyed coming up with ideas, communicating with people, and doing the planning more, so I changed my career to become a producer.</p><p>Thanks to my work experience as 3D and 2D artist, I find it easier to communicate with other artists.</p><figure><img alt="" src="https://cdn-images-1.medium.com/max/1024/0*x0DEbs8qkny6v_gC" /><figcaption>Unopnd Brand Identity Styleframe-1</figcaption></figure><figure><img alt="" src="https://cdn-images-1.medium.com/max/1024/1*VLhgPaplDIeJyGFmDjSFXw.jpeg" /><figcaption>Unopnd Brand Identity Styleframe-2</figcaption></figure><p><strong>Q. How Kentin Creative Started?</strong></p><p><em>Sanghoon:</em> At first, we didn’t start as Kentin Creative. UNOPND had looked for a video production team, because many Web3 projects need videos and cinematics. So, I joined the company, but as I learned more about Web3 and blockchain technology, I wanted to create a solid team where great artists can freely express their creativity.</p><p>Also, in the traditional system, companies usually outsource video productions, creating uneven relationships between the video production team and the clients. So, UNOPND and my team shared the need to create an in-house video production — Kentin Creative.</p><p><em>Jimin: </em>In this case, <strong>we can share the upsides of the projects we work on and so gain more ownership over our work</strong>. It’s not just making a few videos and delivering them to a company, but we also contribute to the project to succeed.</p><p>Making a video is not a simple task. Most importantly, to make a good video, the production team needs to understand what, why, and how of great visual storytelling for specific projects.</p><p>With such thoughts in mind, we created Kentin Creative and invited professional artists to join the team.</p><figure><img alt="" src="https://cdn-images-1.medium.com/max/1024/0*tJeOhBfVRL2kT5a7" /><figcaption>Chaeah / Project Manager</figcaption></figure><h4><strong><em>Video Industry in Need for Change</em></strong></h4><p><strong>Q. What motivated you to create or join Kentin Creative?</strong></p><p><em>Sanghoon:</em> I love challenges. I always look for something different and do not hesitate to start something new. For me, Web 3 was another field of opportunity and possibilities. Yet, that was not the only reason I decided to create a team.</p><blockquote>I saw a need for a video production company that was focused on creative collaboration and exploration.</blockquote><p>I had been working in the Web2 video industry for many years, and I wanted to create a company that was dedicated to creating innovative and engaging video content.</p><p>Furthermore, I saw the potential of partnering with UNOPND and other projects to create a wider audience for our work. I also wanted to create an environment where <strong>my team could actively raise their voices and share their ideas freely. </strong>I was excited by the potential of blockchain technology to revolutionize the creative industry and provide new opportunities.</p><figure><img alt="" src="https://cdn-images-1.medium.com/max/1024/0*ssk0FkuBKiZ7JnMf" /><figcaption>NFT Project Brand Identity Styleframe-1</figcaption></figure><p><em>Jimin:</em> I joined Kentin Creative because of curiosity. I wasn’t sure of this idea at first, but wanted to see how it goes with so many great plans. It was possible because I had faith in Sanghoon since we’ve worked together in the previous company. I was also excited by the potential of Web3 technology to revolutionize the video production industry, and the idea of being able to earn money based on our participation in projects was very appealing.</p><p>Many video production companies focus on outsourced projects, so producers sometimes have to work on totally new projects of different companies within a few months. Outsourcing can create a lack of accountability, as it is difficult to track who is responsible for what. Furthermore, it can be difficult to ensure that all contributors are properly credited, and it can be difficult to enforce payment for work done.</p><blockquote>I saw that blockchain technology can help to solve these problems by providing greater transparency and trust.</blockquote><figure><img alt="" src="https://cdn-images-1.medium.com/max/1024/1*S62TvpvM_RSrBt4FkkSLqA.jpeg" /><figcaption>Song / Concept Artist</figcaption></figure><p><strong>Q. Why do you think the current video production industry needs to change?</strong></p><p><em>Jimin:</em> As we are facing a flood of video content with growth of video platforms such as YouTube and TikTok, video marketing has become an essential tool for businesses to reach and engage with potential customers. Video content allows companies to showcase their products, services, and value in a visual and interactive way. Also, it is a powerful tool for creating brand image and increasing its awareness.</p><p>However, many companies don’t have the capacity or need to have in-house video production teams, so many projects are being outsourced. I understand it can be time-saving and efficient, but as a video producer and creator myself it is not the best way to create a video.</p><p>We often have limited time to work, so we have to work with limited knowledge of the client company and their projects. We are usually required to follow the client’s specifications, so we cannot put more of our own input to the project. Additionally, the project is owned by the client, so we cannot fully own our work, which can lead to a lack of motivation.</p><figure><img alt="" src="https://cdn-images-1.medium.com/max/1024/1*6ouFL7TFYBJMAErvI8VL8A.jpeg" /><figcaption>NFT Project Brand Identity Styleframe-2</figcaption></figure><p><strong>Q. Will Kentin Creative solve those issues?</strong></p><p><em>Sanghoon:</em> At Kentin Creative, we are actively exploring the potential of blockchain technology. Creators can more easily collaborate with one another, ensuring that all contributors are properly credited; blockchain can provide greater transparency in terms of ownership, ensuring that creators can track the ownership of creative works. We hope creators receive proper acknowledgement and compensation for their work.</p><h4><strong>What Makes Kentin Studio so Special</strong></h4><figure><img alt="" src="https://cdn-images-1.medium.com/max/1024/0*bTp96FDXL0iV4ZUG" /><figcaption>Ethan and Suhyun / Animators</figcaption></figure><p><strong>Q. Please introduce your team!</strong></p><p><em>Sanghoon: </em>When I first decided to create Kentin Creative, I put a lot of effort into assembling the best artists into our team. I believe trust is the most essential element in working together. I wanted to bring people on board who were willing to take on a new challenge with me, so it was important for me to find individuals I could trust — and they have all exceeded my expectations.</p><p><em>Jimin: </em>Our team has a high bar for entry. It’s true that having more people on board could help us work faster on projects, but we wanted teammates who we could work with for the long term. So, we took the time to carefully screen potential candidates to find the best fit for our team. As a result, we were able to assemble an excellent team of artists and we are working very efficiently.</p><figure><img alt="" src="https://cdn-images-1.medium.com/max/1024/0*oqKyCnlrDhex0Wui" /><figcaption>Hyunkwon / Supervisor</figcaption></figure><p><strong>Q. Can you briefly explain the professions of your team members?</strong></p><p><em>Jimin: </em>Our team comprises members from various fields, including games, movies, animation, and advertising. They have produced cinematic videos and advertisements in named companies like Alfred Imageworks, Mofac, Npixel, Locus, Macro Graph, Gulliver Studios and Pearlabyss.</p><p>Below is list of our team members and their roles in our team:</p><blockquote>Hyunkwon Kim / Supervisor</blockquote><blockquote>Ethan / Lead Animator</blockquote><blockquote>Morgan Kim / Environment Artist</blockquote><blockquote>Song / Concept Artist</blockquote><blockquote>Jake Lee / FX Artist</blockquote><blockquote>Saerom Kook / Motion Grapher</blockquote><blockquote>Kihoon Kim / Character Artist</blockquote><blockquote>Chaeah Kim / Project Manager</blockquote><blockquote>JK / Generalist</blockquote><blockquote>Suhyun Yun / Animator</blockquote><blockquote>Lexi / FX Artist</blockquote><p><strong>Q. What is the strength of your team?</strong></p><p><em>Sanghoon:</em> Because everyone on our team is highly skilled in their respective fields, we can efficiently carry out tasks without the need for unnecessary explanations. Communication runs smoothly, and once a job is assigned, we always get the best results. This allows us to focus on each project without distraction. We also trust each other, so we can quickly resolve any differences of opinion and focus on creating high-quality videos.</p><p><em>Jimin:</em> I can confidently say that our production environment is at least the best in Korea. We have enough time to focus on projects as there are no tight schedules or urgent requests. Moreover, since it’s a system where everyone receives payment in accordance with the amount of work they do, everyone takes ownership of their tasks. Since projects are already determined, everyone has a high level of understanding and commitment to their work. Everyone puts in their all, full of passion and enthusiasm for their projects, creating a great atmosphere.</p><figure><img alt="" src="https://cdn-images-1.medium.com/max/1024/0*ctuGvcUr6BaNpqVt" /><figcaption>NFT Project Brand Identity Styleframe-3</figcaption></figure><p><strong>Q. What is the vision and future of Kentin Creative?</strong></p><p><em>Sanghoon:</em> My ultimate goal for Kentin Creative is to become a renowned studio in both Korea and the global market, going beyond the traditional in-house video studio. I also wish to have a positive influence on other companies, spreading our new culture.</p><p>Before that, I hope that our team will be known for creating high-quality video for great Web 3 projects. We are currently working on AAA projects of UNOPND, and we plan to produce multiple videos. I hope to hear that Kentin Creative can be trusted for any project that we collaborate on.</p><p>Right now, we are focusing on producing a trailer for the game, Derby Stars. We strive to create a trailer that conveys the excitement and thrill of the racing game, providing viewers with a quality experience they have never seen before.</p><p>Please look forward to the results!</p><figure><img alt="" src="https://cdn-images-1.medium.com/max/1024/0*Y5vw9Ua3eeTWVwEw" /><figcaption>We are Kentin Creative!</figcaption></figure><p><a href="https://kentin.art/"><strong>Website</strong></a></p><img src="https://medium.com/_/stat?event=post.clientViewed&referrerSource=full_rss&postId=a6bc67e919b0" width="1" height="1" alt="">]]></content:encoded>

            <content:encoded><![CDATA[<figure><img alt="" src="https://cdn-images-1.medium.com/max/1024/1*iZJQiXCZlQsCCS8zk2QDEQ.png" /></figure><p>UNOPND is excited to announce our partnership with <strong><em>Kingdom Story: Heroes War</em></strong>, Softnyx’s strategic RPG game utilizing Web3 technology.</p><p>With over 5 million downloads, Kingdom Story has already proven to be a great success. The new version of the game, <strong><em>Kingdom Story: Heroes War</em></strong>, will apply blockchain to enhance the gaming experience.</p><p>The core team of <strong><em>Kingdom Story: Heroes War</em></strong> has been in the game industry for over 20 years and has expertise and know-how about the mobile gaming market. The team not only has experience but also holds many records in performance. In particular, the stable maintenance of the service and the steady supply of content for more than 6 years are impressive achievements considering that the average lifespan of a mobile game is 180 days.</p><p><strong>Kingdom Story’s Key Achievements:</strong></p><ul><li>5M + global downloads</li><li>6 Years + of service</li><li>20–30K average DAU</li><li>Nearly 6 hours of gameplay time per user</li></ul><figure><img alt="" src="https://cdn-images-1.medium.com/max/1024/1*fPrSjQ_GsQ3RhZHoEyNB8w.jpeg" /></figure><h4>What is Kingdom Story: Heroes War?</h4><p><strong><em>Kingdom Story: Heroes War</em></strong> is based on the concept of P2E+ combining the core elements of the game (Enjoyment, Exploration, Escapism) with the infinite potential of blockchain technology (Trading, Owning, Governing).</p><p>It is designed with an innovative player-driven utility economics based on NFT ownership, focusing on blockchain technology to enable a player-owned economy in the Web3 gaming industry, and striving to create a game that can be enjoyed.</p><h4><strong>Strength of Kingdom Story: Heroes War</strong></h4><p>UNOPND believes that <strong><em>Kingdom Story: Heroes War</em></strong> will be one of the projects that stand out in the Web3 game in 2023 through the challenge of overcoming several obstacles that exist in the Web3 game market and lead Web3 Mass Adoption.</p><p><strong>1. Zero-Threshold</strong></p><p>Most of representative Web3 projects such as STEPN and Axie Infinity need NFTs and tokens to play, thus creating a barrier. <strong><em>Kingdom Story: Heroes War</em></strong>, however, is striving to eliminate this barrier completely. Players will not require any NFTs or tokens to play; instead, they can gain opportunities to own NFTs and tokens depending on the extent to which they contribute to the game.</p><p><strong>2. AAA+ (Anytime, Anywhere, (in) Any device)</strong></p><p><strong><em>Kingdom Story: Heroes War</em></strong> is striving to break through a major obstacle confronting many existing Web3 games. Most have restrictions based on operating systems (IOS, Android) and devices (Web, mobile), but this game aims to remove these impediments entirely.</p><p>In the Web3 games arena, where most games are released as WebGL builds, <strong><em>Kingdom Story: Heroes War</em></strong> offers a boundary-free gaming experience with WebGL, IOS, and AOS builds.</p><p><strong>3. Zero-Gap: No Need to Wait</strong></p><p>In <strong><em>Kingdom Story: Heroes War</em></strong>, all milestones from project release to official launch are compactly arranged within a short time.</p><p>Other P2E games often take a long time, sometimes years, for users to actually play the games after the community launch or NFT sale. However, you will be able to play <strong><em>Kingdom Story: Heroes War</em></strong> very soon and there will be no monetary sales for tokens or NFTs before the game launch. This will pose a new paradigm for Web3 games and will solve dragging problems that users had with previous Web3 projects.</p><p>2023 will see a surge of Web3 games, but we are sure that <strong><em>Kingdom Story: Heroes War</em></strong> will lead the first quarter of the market.</p><figure><img alt="" src="https://cdn-images-1.medium.com/max/1024/1*G2iuYWuAOpACGXL3FiP4ww.jpeg" /></figure><p><strong>4. SEA (Stable Economy Architecture)</strong></p><p>Softnyx and UNOPND have joined forces to combine their expertise in Web2 and Web3 economy design to create a balanced in-game economy for <strong><em>Kingdom Story: Heroes War</em></strong>. With their combined knowledge, they are looking to address the operational and content development issues commonly seen in Web3 games, as well as the economic collapse that often follows the introduction of tokenomics within these titles.</p><p>Numerous Web3 games have experienced operational difficulties and lack of content development since their release. Moreover, we have seen the collapse of the projects as their tokenomics system has been unable to effectively balance the game economy.</p><p>Softnyx has 6 years of experience with Kingdom Story already, so they are well prepared to achieve maximum in-game consumption and balance core goods. The team is also ready to generate stable sales and to maintain the service.</p><p><strong>5. Expansion of Genres</strong></p><p><strong><em>Kingdom Story: Heroes War</em></strong> is a multi-genre game. It expands the CCG (Collective Card Game) genre into the TCG (Trading Card Game) genre, while combining the RPG genre with the strategy genre.</p><p>In the Web2 Kingdom Story, users were confined to the CCG genre, collecting officers, goods, and items without knowing when they’d acquire the ones they wanted. But with blockchain technology, ownership is secure and users can freely trade with other users for the officers and goods they’ve collected. This has allowed the game to expand into the TCG genre: <strong><em>Kingdom Story: Heroes War</em></strong>.</p><p><strong><em>Kingdom Story: Heroes War</em></strong> provides enjoyment in acquisition (TCG), in leveling up the heroes (RPG), and in forming a deck in infinite combinations with various heroes. This will provide users with a wider experience.</p><p><strong>6. Community Effect</strong></p><p><strong><em>Kingdom Story: Heroes War</em></strong> expands its community size and reach by embracing Web3-based communities in Twitter and Discord, unlocking endless possibilities.</p><p>While the original Kingdom Story operated a global service for over 6 years, communication between its users and developers was limited. Even in Korea, where the game was mainly served, there was only one communication channel — Naver Cafe — in which the communication was mainly one-way. However, the community of <strong><em>Kingdom Story: Heroes War</em></strong> aims for real-time and interactive communication through single integrated community.</p><figure><img alt="" src="https://cdn-images-1.medium.com/max/1024/1*DJloJnAOs_7iipKmu0f7Iw.jpeg" /></figure><h4><strong>UNOPND X Kingdom Story Partnership</strong></h4><p>UNOPND will pass on its expertise to <strong><em>Kingdom Story: Heroes War</em></strong> to build the overall project. This will include token economy design and community building strategy.</p><p>Even though the blockchain market is experiencing a downturn, numerous game developers, including major game companies, are rushing into the Web3 game market in 2022–23.</p><p>UNOPND, with its various know-hows and insights from directly building and consulting various projects, is a leader in this market and is aiming to create a new Web3 Game Narrative. We believe that the game industry will lead the Mass Adoption of Web3 and so we are preemptively investing a lot of resources with great interest in the game industry.</p><p>The value that UNOPND can provide to its partners is as follows:</p><p>1) Web3 economy Design: Design and share economic structures such as tokenomics and NFT suitable for each project and ecosystem</p><p>2) Network &amp; Community Marketing: Community building, PR, and external partnership strategies from a Web3-focused marketing team</p><p>3) Project and Company Operation Expertise: From the perspective of directly incubating a project, UNOPND is experiencing most of the same situations that all projects in the market are undergoing. As a leading company in the industry, we are creating our own industry standards from an operational point of view, and we share this knowledge/know-how with our partners.</p><p>UNOPND is already collaborating with a number of game developers, and we intend to continuously expand our connections to the outside world. This is not just one collaboration through a short-term engagement with projects but a long-term relationship that allows continuous collaboration across various fields.</p><iframe src="https://cdn.embedly.com/widgets/media.html?src=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.youtube.com%2Fembed%2FtxSCDpHRUa0%3Ffeature%3Doembed&amp;display_name=YouTube&amp;url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.youtube.com%2Fwatch%3Fv%3DtxSCDpHRUa0&amp;image=https%3A%2F%2Fi.ytimg.com%2Fvi%2FtxSCDpHRUa0%2Fhqdefault.jpg&amp;key=a19fcc184b9711e1b4764040d3dc5c07&amp;type=text%2Fhtml&amp;schema=youtube" width="854" height="480" frameborder="0" scrolling="no"><a href="https://medium.com/media/9a5e3c50157e3bb2e778b80c7eef3ab1/href">https://medium.com/media/9a5e3c50157e3bb2e778b80c7eef3ab1/href</a></iframe><p><strong><em>Kingdom Story: Heroes War </em>official links</strong></p><p><a href="https://www.kingdomheroeswar.com/">Website</a> | <a href="https://twitter.com/kingdomstorynft">Twitter</a> | <a href="https://medium.com/@kingdomstorynft">Medium</a> | <a href="https://discord.com/invite/YS8dVsbXdv">Discord</a></p><img src="https://medium.com/_/stat?event=post.clientViewed&referrerSource=full_rss&postId=47cf41c3d635" width="1" height="1" alt="">]]></content:encoded>
