EDITOR
Welcome to issue 54 of #Shill zine - the most read Solana ecosystem
zine on the planet.
Each issue of #Shill is averaging 5000 views these last weeks since going
to a weekly release. Not the old 8500 views per week but respectable
none the less. Overall, the 54 issue set has managed to have over 215513
views. Staggering! Especially when you consider the sheer size of the
Solana space and how #Shill zine still has not managed to break through.
Case in point. A recent Twitter Spaces session I joined had about 12
people in it. Run by @SolVisitors the group was just chilling and talking
about upcoming mints. The top 5 mints that were mentioned #Shill has
never heard of BUT the stats presented showed that those upcoming mints
had 10k followers on Twitter. Untapped. @Solvisitors asked me up on
the stage and the listeners were astounded that a magazine like #Shill
exists!
ALL IT TAKES IS A RETWEET.
Consider the effect a retweet has. Person A has 50 followers and
retweets about the zine. If just one of their followers view the zine
and decides to retweet to their 500 followers #Shill has managed to
cross the path of 550 new Tweeps. Untapped.
How much does all this cost? Probably about 3 seconds of your time.
Click ‘retweet’. Done.
What does #Shill stand to gain? Nothing really. Just fresh eyes on a
‘tranche’ of the Solana ecosystem that doesn’t get the recognition it
deserves.
As I said in the Twitter Space the other day, #Shill zine’s goal for
2022 is to average 10k views/week. Too optimistic?
Issue 54 is jam packed once again. 100 pages of Solana goodness guaranteed
to improve your health and put a smile on your face. Alpha articles
that you have missed during the week. Over 54 NFTs, some you’ve never
seen before!
Fantastic NFTs from newcomers and mainstayers. Come on #frens show the
love. Hit the artists up on Twitter. Tell the writer’s you read their
articles. Give back a little!
Time to sit back. Grab a drink. Take your time to flick through the
zine.
THE Solana ecosystem zine is here to stay. It’s weekly. It’s free. It’s
archiving history. Are you coming along for the ride #anon?
As always, show your love on the Twittersphere with a simple retweet.
Enough said. You know the drill. Let’s f go!

Just like me, you all must have been enjoying the recent volume coming into the Solana nft
ecosystem. The hype and demand have been so strong lately that almost all the projects that
launched lately have done well in the secondary marketplace. To sustain that demand and volume,
there will be three big mints that are going to happen today, namely:- Crypto Coral Tribe, Female Remnants and
Floating Apes. One of them already has proven themselves in the past (Remnants) and the rest of the two are
showing great promise.
Here in this article, we are going to talk about Crypto Coral Tribe.
You must have heard this phrase a lot “we are here to change the space”, of course, an optimistic approach is
always a good to go thing but the one project that is going to change the trend with their approach and vision is
Crypto Coral Tribe.
This is not your usual community-associated, staking project with metaverse integration in its roadmap, rather
they are here going to leverage art and tech to invest in the natural world. Hence the name “Coral Tribe”.
Before we move ahead let me give the information about the mint:
Supply: 6565
Cost: 1.8
Time: 2 pm UTC (Presale) | 5 pm UTC (Public)
Let’s take a deep dive into their vision:
Roadmap: As I said above the main aim of the project is to protect 3000 coral reefs around 3 continents and
the main catalyst towards this vision is a Community Impact Fund which will be seeded with 50% of the mint
revenue.
So how is this impact fund gonna work?
The time is working on releasing a beta dashboard of the Impact Fund. This dashboard will be made accessible to
all the holders and they will be able to see the collective impact of the CCT, proposal rounds, voting mechanisms
and holder rewards.
There will be different ways in which the impact fund will get utilised and as a holder, you have a vote in deciding
which proposal is the best to go for and in return the holders will get a share from the returns of the investment.
6
SHILL Issue #54

Some examples of how the impact fund is going to get utilised:
Digital Art: Here the main aim of the investment will be to support artists across disciplines contributing to the
well being of our planet. The artwork of these artists will go on a special 1/1 auction with the holders of Crypto
Coral Tribes getting exclusive access to it and a share in the revenue earned from the sale.
Marine Conservation: This will be directly linked to expanding their research, infrastructure and networks to
increase the commercial viability of coral restoration operations. Here the holders will get free memberships to
go diving at marine reservations across the globe.
Sustainable Business Ventures: Here the main aim will be to save endangered coastal areas and support local
communities while promoting sustainable practices through permaculture farms, eco-home infrastructure and
renewable energy systems.
Staking: Since the community is going to be included in every decision of the project and they will get benefits
from these investments, there needs to be a utility token and $AQUA is the utility token of Coral Tribe.
Benefits linked to holding $AQUA are as follows:
1. When you stake your NFT, it will increase the weight of your vote in the impact fund which will later
decide how much return are you going to have from that investment.
2. Rewards purchased by holders through $AQUA can be linked to your CCT NFT- creating a mechanism for
increasing the NFTs’ value and rarity. Once the NFT is traded, any rewards tied to it will be passed on to
the buyer.
3. Each reward will be capped so only a limited number of people will have access to it — thus acquiring
rewards can be thought of as acquiring rare traits with unique utility.
4. $AQUA will be the exclusive bidding token for the 1:1 Super Corals auction (5 pieces total).
5. $AQUA will give access to the breeding of the Gen2 collection.
6. The team has planned a launch of Sustainable Merchandise designed by Christian Chegne, co-founder of
the CCT and former creative lead for Calvin Klein, Versace and others. $AQUA will give you the option to
buy this merchandise.
7. Nature Retreats: To build a strong bond among the community there will be some IRL experiences
organised by the project, the passes of which can only be bought via $AQUA.
Solarpunk Academy: Solarpunk is a movement that envisions a future where technology, clean energy and selforientation
come together to form a new civilisation.
The main aim of this academy will be to provide a series of art workshops with their artist, learning resources
around self-sufficiency and financial sovereignty, as well as hackathons supporting tech solutions to
environmental problems.
Metaverse Integration: Since the team has planned so many things to do in the real world, why not take the
vision to the virtual world as well. And as per the lite paper, they are fully ready for a metaverse integration
with the 3D rendered Crypto Corals produced by Darko Mitev — former producer for Disney, Netflix, Apple and
others.
SHILL Issue #54

Art: This is one of the things that attracted me to the project. The art is inspired by avatars infusing futuristic
references with an indigenous art style of their artist João. It is a hybrid of coral reefs, wildness and technology.
All the art pieces are 1/1 with so much detail and top-notch quality. Not just the art but the video that they
posted on their Twitter and their website which they built to claim the tokens of them shows how professional
and hard-working the team is.
This is by far one of the best pfp worthy art in the Solana NFT Marketplace.
Engagement: If you are following Solana NFTs even on the sidelines, you must have heard about Crypto Coral
Tribes. They are the talk of the town for the past few weeks with everyone collaborating with them, tweeting
about them, making a thread about them and just simply appreciating the art of the project.
The team has a strong discord with around 36,000 members with 8,000 online members and they are clocking an
average of 1500+ reactions on their announcements and their sneak peeks.
Apart from Discord, their Twitter looks pretty strong as well around 45,000 followers. They have pretty active on
their Twitter with the videos, art sneak peeks and threads about the project and is getting an average of 700+
likes per post.
One more parameter of how strong the hype is, the tokens of a project with a supply of over 6500 are getting
sold for 2.5+ sol.
To conclude, I would say this is one of the strongest projects that has gone to mint in the past few months.
The team is doxxed with some pretty big names with vast experiences involved and has shown how professional
they are time and again.
The vision of the project is unique and strong as well, and it is something we don’t see on Solana every day.
The volume in the space is giving higher highs every day and in such conditions, a project like Crypto Coral Tribe
should do wonders.
I won’t recommend minting after buying a token because that will increase the risk by multiples. However, it is
upon you how much risk you are willing to take, just make sure you are good at mathematics.
I would rate the project 3.75/5 based on the fact that it has great art and a great team, the team has also
planned some great utilities but I will wait to see the perception the community forms of those utilities.
As always DYOR.

Pay Attention To
First, about the Communi3...
It is a tool helping WEB3-focused businesses to organize their communities and leverage the sentiment
they have by giving NFT collections, blockchain games, Dapps, and metaverses innovative ways to engage
with their audience in places such as Discord, YouTube, Twitter, podcasts, or metaverses.
Communi3 offers multiple ways to help brands interact with their audience and has already onboarded
some notable clients like YGG, BigTime, SandBox helping them increase engagement 3x-4x with the the
features such as:
Gamification through questlines, badges, ranks, rewards, currencies, tiers, and digital storefronts designed to
engage community members online.
The creation of tools to manage community through workflows. Self-onboarding, payments, verification, marketplace,
management, and communication handled seamlessly through the online portal.
Activating the community to grow further through social media integration, allowing the most passionate fans to
get the word out.
Boring stuff like reporting for compliance issue
Communi3 brings into the Solana market multiple NFT collections, each with very different purposes
offering unique benefits to its holders:
Communi3 Labs
Mad Scientist
What are the Communi3 Labs NFTs, and why do people pay $100K for them?
Communi3 Labs is a utility based NFT collection that allows its holders to use the Communi3 software
for free.
If you’re not the WEB3-based project, the Labs NFT can still provide a lot of value. It allows holders to
rent their Labs to clients who use Communi3. So, the Labs is a great passive income play, and the income
you can potentially generate is quite substantial. On top of that, staking the Labs NFT for one year
will create a new, additional Labs NFT item.
22
SHILL Issue #54

Communi3 service costs between 5 to 15 thousand US dollars a month, and each NFT represents 5k
worth of services.
The Labs collection has 50 NFTs, 40 Gen 0 NFT, and 10 Gen 1. Each of them will be tied to the customer
using the product. This means that there will never be more NFTs than there are customers.
However, if you own the Labs NFT but aren’t the customer, you get a 100% monthly Communi3 fee,
meaning that one NFT can generate 5 thousand US dollars per month. To be eligible for the rewards,
you only need to stake it.
The collection will be sold in 2 waves, and the first wave has already ended. In 2 weeks, 25 out of 50
NFTs were sold generating 20900 SOL. Since the beginning of the launch, Lab NFTs held the floor value
of over 1000 SOL. At the time of writing, the single item on sale costs 1400 SOL.
Customer utilities:
Priority dev and features
Reduction of $5000 Saas fees
Inclusion of Laboratory DAO, which consists of crypto investors and the clients such as Solana, Big Time, YGG, The
Sandbox, Asteria Labs, Forte, Secret NFT, and many more.
Investor utilities:
Staking for revenue sharing of existing customers
Staking for generation of new laboratory NFTs after 12 months
Inclusion of Laboratory DAO
Mad scientists NFTs
Mad Scientists is the second Communi3 collection of 5001 NFTs. It will be minting on 2 of May for 2
SOL.
SHILL Issue #54
23

The main reason for the mint is not to raise money, as the company has the funding secured already.
Instead, the project’s primary purpose is to create advocates and stimulate organic growth within the
WEB3 space for Communi3. At the same time, the Mad Scientists community will take part in the company’s
future success.
The holders will have access to the B2C tools that are yet to come this year, partner NFT collections,
whitelist opportunities, and 10% token $SCI allocation. The token will be launched by the end of 2022
or the beginning of 2023. Additionally, Mad Scientists will generate dividends in $SCI when staked.
The token will play an essential role in the Communi3 ecosystem. The demand for the $SCI will be
created as the Communi3 customers will need the token for future features and services such as animation,
dashboard access, whitelist software, etc. Also, each future customer onboarded will require to
burn a small portion of $SCI making it a deflationary token.
The art of the NFTs is created by 12 artists, randomly generated from 650+ unique items, and has its
distinctive style.
Who is behind Communi3?
The team of the project is fully doxxed. They do not hide faces, are very articulate about their ideas,
and freely express them in YouTube videos and many AMAs.
The core team is highly experienced and has a successful track record in building businesses. Founder
and CEO Brandon Byrne has been in community tech for 12 years, helped develop companies such as
Curse and Team Liquid, and raised more than $50m. Founder and President Andrew Ringlein has built a
SaaS technology company inside HP that was sold for $200m+. Founder and CTO Eddie Tsiao - been in
technology, dev-ops, and security for 20 years. Founder and CRO Erik Bryant has been in gaming and ad
tech for 13 years.
Communi3 has been developed for six years by now. Previously it was known as IMP, an Oakland-based
WEB2 startup that also does Influencer Generated Content (IGC), a programmatic software solution
to crowdsource video content to a 150k+ influencer network. The move to WEB3 was due to the lack
of project ownership within the WEB2 world. To the present date, they raised a total of 9 million US
dollars.
The Communi3 Linkedin page says they have 41 employees, and they are also actively hiring developers.
24
SHILL Issue #54

Is Mad Scientist a good investment?
Communi3 is a unique project, and people are noticing it. Over the past weeks, the community and
peoples’ interest increased dramatically, and none of this happened through engagement farming. Over
80 thousand people follow the project on Twitter, and the posts have high engagement. Discord is also
very active, there are almost 80 thousand verified members, announcement reactions are high. Discord
Alpha chat groups have a lot of conversations revolving around the project, and people are waiting for
the mint, many of them to hold the Mad Scientist NFT instead of flipping for profit.
The platform is already built, has a track record of increasing engagement in 3x-4x, and has onboarded
huge clients from the WEB3 world, who see the product as an excellent investment despite the 5 thousand
US dollars monthly cost. For example, after implementing the product, the P2E project Big Time
replaced ten people and significantly increased social media engagement.
That is also just a beginning for Communi3, as the creative, experienced, and driven team is constantly
building. Seeing the team’s success, the community can expect meaningful results in the future as well.

@melis_sol
Missed out on @okaybears? Graphic designer here trying to break down the genius of their branding and how to
spot another branding play like this early on.
Complimentary palette
They made sure that the color palette they used would complement the bg and traits. Looks easy on the eyes.
You won’t see any ugly clashing colors here:
Okay Bears
Consistent branded assets
Branding 101–have a brand guide and stick to it. Notice how their use of fonts, colors, and logo look consistent
all throughout their materials. They even included a blueprint fur trait from the blueprint on their website

Storytelling
Branding is all about being able to tell your story effectively to your audience to invoke a response. They do this
well by world-building through art and consistent messaging. From their communication style, tone, and to their
hashtags! #wagbo #weareokay

SHILL Issue #54

We’re seeing that branding is becoming more important in the new meta. You’re buying into an experience and
a community when you buy a pfp and good branding is part of that. Shows that a project is putting in the effort.
What else do you think helped them catch hype?

@DegenSwings
Who would’ve thought? @Jaburx is dead and we bring him back to life. It’s time to open the pandora box
about Guilherme Jabur. A thread.
Jabur needs no introduction, he is the most shameless scammer in Solana
who rugged 3 collections (known until now), being fully doxxed using
that credibility to raise funds then to scam left and right whenever he
had a chance. He launched @NoiaDucks @solanaDBS @theoctopusart.
@NoiaDucks raised 1000 sol. He promised 51% royalties of a new
marketplace called @intersectNFT, he rushed it & got hacked because
the private key was found in the source code (bad CTO), many NFTs were
stolen and it failed. To date he hasn’t given the keys to the community.
Days after mint, he bought a DAA used today as pfp by his company
@SolaLandHQ, held in Jabur’s wallet. DyNxpjEJnLHo5bmNKVmkBYWZB781TXYy5haV9Jf99jaq Holds a
Legendary Noia, 174 SDB, a Boryoku (ex-pfp) and the Ape, the last 2 NFTs represent 99% of the wallet
value.
38
SHILL Issue #54

He launched @SolanaDBS, he said he was ONLY an advisor, but he wasn’t because he received 5333 sol
from mint + Royalties from SDB royalty wallet 9Z2YcpKL5epEtw4k3rp1gVjoCnGas7TKDkb14vfedAkv
Interesting to know how an “advisor” receives 100% of mint funds + royalties.
The project did not progress over time and Jabur claimed not to have any responsibility for being just
an advisor, but again he wasn’t! He received all mint funds and is just washing his hands from the
responsibility once he took the money and let the project die.
He loved the idea of launchpads and started offering marketing services and launching tech for projects
after SDB launch, which will be used by him to obscure project mints to his benefit (more on this later).
He comes with a new launch @theoctopusart as “advisor”.
By checking Octopus Royalty Wallet: HnS4a3CUqbdkW5rmQSbwrJyVpeSYFyipCFCGbr33Uoz7 IHnS4a
sends 3593 sol from mint to: BamJ46QcPNdR8cB7G9FekxBGvSyCWu62xjziVXHfzXpd He did this in 20
transactions, (BamJ4) later sent 33% or 1196 sol to Jaburs Wallet (DyNxp), sure an“advisor”.
SHILL Issue #54
39

The project did not progress over time and he claimed not to have any responsibility for being just an
advisor, again. These projects presented websites with cool designs, fuzzy words & no real features,
multiple similar projects launched through Solaland, very suspicious.
Trying to find the needle in the haystack, his w(DyNxp) receives 6050 sol in multiple transactions from
6WTAavJk9PuheNqkjTdBegrMdCdhTribxsmhA9FdiD6H This is Solaland wallet due to the amount &
frequency of transactions from this wallet to Jaburs & Solaland partner projects.
Solaland’s wallet received 5,893 sol distributed in 538 transactions, of which 4606 sol were transferred to
Jabur’s wallet, approximately 78% of Solaland profits. Jabur claimed that he only owned 10-15% of the
company. But the blockchain says otherwise, it doesn’t lie.
Why is it important to prove that Jabur owns Solaland? Because he uses the company to launder the
money Solaland offers services for staking, airdrop tools, bots, discord verification tools, offering all-in
one ponzinomics needed for a project.
I can’t say for sure how many collections he’s released, but it’s a little strange to see SEVERAL solaland
customers with the same roadmap, over and over. My guess is that there are more projects of his than
we think of. Let’s see his next project launch I know it’s his.
There was this project @DeRug_NFT that rugged through his launchpad, he offered new art to derug
the project, but later this project died and never used the art he proposed to derug. (post is from web
archives).
Oh look @RichPanthers_ is minting soon! https://richpanthers.com
-Do you recognize the prior NFT in the post from Jabur? -What is that at the bottom of their website?
What a coincidence that @SolaLandHQ is a launching partner.
So this is how it works
Jabur creates new collections, mints and negotiates with himself the value of Solaland services.. and
receives approx. 78% of this amount in the form of profits from Solaland, based on prior historical revenue
share out of Solaland’s wallet (6WTAa). Funny how he claims to own 10% of Solaland and that’s what he
has shared with projects he rugged he was publicly associated, when the blockchain tells otherwise. He
used to personally manage all these social media accounts, so I wouldn’t trust a thing these accounts
postFunny how he claims to own 10% of Solaland and that’s what he has shared with projects he rugged
he was publicly associated, when the blockchain tells otherwise. He used to personally manage all these
social media accounts, so I wouldn’t trust a thing these accounts post.
This is how now Jabur launches NFT projects and converts the mint into profit without associating the
collection with his name.
@jaburx since then has deleted the profile to get rid of all the evidence that was in there that connects
him with all his rugs in the space.

@nft_godz
In this thread we will explain the GODz project. We will also answer questions like: Why invest in GODz? What is
$MYTH? What does the future hold? What differentiates us? How can I get involved?
With every NFT project you want to find something you can proudly claim as your own. With a project like ours
who have a long-term vision this is especially important. That’s why we’ve spent over 5 months developing 300+
unique traits and 17 1:1’s.
The GODz currently have 2 utilities. The 1st is an incubator, a full service platform which offers assistance in
branding, marketing, dev, tokenomics, consultation, launch and long term assistance. A portion of all projects
launched via godz can be purchased using $MYTH
50
SHILL Issue #54

The second is a game platform where 50% of all revenue gets distributed to DEMONz holders. GODz will have the
opportunity to mint the DEMONz for free using $MYTH… But we havnt made it easy. You’ll need to use $MYTH to
unlock certain NFT’s to be eligible to mint DEMONz.
SHILL Issue #54
51

What is $MYTH?
$MYTH is the currency used in the GODz ecosystem. All GODz receive 5 $MYTH per day and once you save up
enough $MYTH you can mint a portion of the NFT’s we launch via our incubator. Currently we have 30+ projects
looking to launch through the incubator.
Tokenomics
Our tokenomics are realistic and sustainable long term. There will be real outside revenue coming in through the
incubator, game platform and licensing that will bring ongoing value to the $MYTH token. Our utility ensures
we’re here to stay.
Differentiation
We aim to spur innovation and creativity within the Solana ecosystem and we will accomplish this by giving
strong teams the support they need to succeed in this space. We’ve built connections and longterm partnerships
to support all projects launched via godz
Future
With a team of 16 our eyes are not set on the coming weeks, but the coming months and years. Long-term
through the incubator we aim to create a pocket of successful projects on sol that are well connected, share
resources, and progress the Web 3.0 industry forward.
52
SHILL Issue #54

Future 2.0
Our web3 incubator and campaigns will be positioned towards big brands who are looking to enter the web3
space and find a specialised team who can provide that service for them professionally. We’ve seen brands such
as Playboy, Lamborghini & Pepsi do this already
Want to get involved?
We’re publicly doxxed founders and if you want to get involved and join the GODzfam you can scoop a seed godz
off secondary or join our main sale on the 30th of march at 7pm UTC.

Solana continues to be set on fire by $DUST as soon it appears there will be even more utility for the
token with the announcement by Dust Labs. Citing upcoming experiments, tools, games and art, while
only accepting $DUST, perhaps the decision to DeadGod or not to DeadGod isn’t so simple anymore?

SHILL Issue #54

Long have I traversed the Gobi Desert in search of the ever elusive Elixir to no avail. Little did I know all
I had to do snag one from Everseed, a new studio established by veterans of Riot Games that’s building
an MMO on Solana. Their Genesis Mint runs all week and official token are tradable starting on April
26th.
At this point, I feel we’ve seen all the types of utilities for NFTs that are possible but then comes Chippies
with their Natural Language Process and Machine Learning tech that will analyze the text used in
NFT communities on Twitter and give a resulting hype score. Could this be the next great tool in Solana
NFT or is it the alternate origin story for Skynet and the elimination of the human race?
Invokers Elves
The Skinny: InvokersNFTs are Stakeable, Playable & Tradable. 5,000 InvokersNFTs yield 10 $IV Daily
through our In-House Staking platform, playable in the upcoming Invokers MMORPG. InvokersMMO is
a Play2Earn MMORPG built on #Solana. Players will be able to complete quests, fulfill campaigns and
enjoy a PvE & PvP environments.
Why we’re paying attention: Invokers Team are all hardcore gamers, with previous experiences in
Games monetization, Performance marketing and Game development. Invokers’ Founder, Sam, has
successfully established and exited 2 Digital Marketing agencies focused on optimizing Game mechanics
when it comes to Monetization & User acquisition.

Project Seed gaming ecosystem built on Solana is one of the first to include a game studio, DEX, NFT
Marketplace, and Wallet.
Introducing Project Seed
Project Seed is a GameFi Metaverse Ecosystem built by a AAA Game Studio to provide a mobile-focused
blockchain platform that utilizes proprietary Multi-Chain Hybrid Technology and integrates key project
components such as Game Hub, GameFi, Decentralized Autonomous Organisation (DAO), ESports, and
the Growth Program all in one platform. It aims to rival the traditional gaming experience with high
quality and real-life-like games that utilize blockchain technology to reward users for their participation,
thereby appealing to both the crypto and non-crypto savvy audience.

Project Seed revolutionizes the blockchain gaming industry by eliminating entry barriers as playing games
on the platform requires no cryptocurrency knowledge and zero initial investment. Through this barrierless
entry platform, Project Seed believes that the GameFi space has the potential to drive the mass
adoption of cryptocurrencies in general.
The Project Seed Metaverse
Project Seed is a hybrid all-in-one platform that integrates traditional gaming with blockchain technology.
In this platform, users can play and simultaneously earn rewards for their participation in activities (Token
staking, NFTs, etc.) in the ecosystem, which the company terms ‘Proof of Play.’ Project Seed aims to
operate across different blockchains providing users the flexibility to use their tokens and Non-Fungible
Tokens (NFTs) as they see fit.
The Project Seed Metaverse broadly comprises five main components:
• Game HUB
• GameFi
• DAO
• ESports
• Growth Program

Let’s dive a bit deeper into each of these facets of the Metaverse.
Game Hub
Project SEED’s technologically-advanced Game HUB enables games in the ecosystem to implement multichain
and cross-platform exchanges, which allows players to make transactions across the Project SEED
ecosystem. The project also introduced Cross-Platform NFTs.
Most of the Project SEED Metaverse NFTs can be used in all Project SEED Studio games and Project SEED
Growth Program Partners’ games across the ecosystem. This cross-platform functionality will provide
these NFTs with a significant boost in use-cases and value in the long run. The NFTs will also be forward
and backward compatible throughout the ecosystem.
Multi-Chain and Cross-Chain: Game Tokens such as SHILL and O2 (Outland Odyssey) and NFTs are designed
for Multi-Chain use in supported chains such as Solana, BNB Chain, etc. Project SEED Ecosystem will also
support Cross-Chain interactions; it implies that Chain A Token Holders will be able to transact with the
users from Chain B.

Project Seed intends to develop games to target the following gaming genres in its Game Studio:
• Role-Playing Game (RPG)
• Massively Multiplayer Online Role-playing Game (MMORPG)
• Multiplayer Online Battle Arena (MOBA)
• Battle Royale First Person Shooter (FPS)
• Real-Time Strategy (RTS)
• Fighting Games
• Arcade-Style Flight Action Games
‍GameFi
Project SEED’s GameFi provides all players access to its Decentralized Finance (DeFi) platform, which
enables facilitates token staking, transferring, and minting. It’s an intersectional territory between
blockchain-based gaming and decentralized finance, giving users the most flexible financial powers while
also enjoying a seamless gaming experience at the same time.
In order to appeal to a wider audience, Project Seed provides In-Game and Off-Game DeFi access to all
players. Traditional gamers can execute DeFi-related actions within the application itself without having
to use the Web3 application, and seasoned Crypto players can connect to the Web3 application for the
same.

Project Seed’s GameFi ecosystem comprises three main elements: NFT Cross Chain Bridging, DeFi tools,
and the Marketplace. For DeFi activities, the project offers tools such as Vaults and SEEDex.
Vaults offer users the ability to stake tokens and earn rewards. They were designed to maintain a balance
between demand and supply in the SHILL token ecosystem while maximizing utility for the tokens. A
portion of Project SEED’s community token supply is allocated for Staking Rewards and LP Staking Rewards.
This system provides incentives for holders who have supported the project from its initial stage.
There are two types of vaults:
• Single Token Vault: Users can stake the community tokens for rewards in these vaults.
• LIquidity Token Vault: Users can convert and stake community tokens for liquidity tokens and vice-versa
(such as SHILL-SOL, SHILL-BNB, SHILL-USDC, SHILL-BUSD, etc.).
There are two staking options such as flexible staking and locked staking. With flexible staking, users can
unstake their tokens at any time. In locked staking, the tokens are locked for up to 12 months, and users
are rewarded based on the length of the staking period.

SEEDex (Project Seed’s Decentralized Exchange) was built for the implementation of AMM (Automated
Market Making) built on the blockchain to enhance a fully decentralized CLOB (Central Limit Order Book).
CLOB is the backbone of the AMM Mechanism to provide high-speed trades and access to on-chain
liquidity on multiple DEXs.
Project Seed also offers users an in-game and a web-based marketplace where they can buy, sell, and
rent NFTs. The in-Game marketplace offers ease of use primarily for non-crypto users who want to
conveniently buy, sell, rent, or lend NFTs without leaving the game. However, the in-game marketplace
will exclusively offer Project SEED Ecosystem NFTs and Partners NFTs. Web-based marketplace targets
seasoned users and can be used when they are not online in the game or with a larger screen size for
better navigation and browsing. Web-based marketplace offers Project SEED Metaverse NFTs, Partners
NFTs, as well as other collectibles NFTs.
DAO
Project Seed was conceived with the idea to integrate a strong governance mechanism in order to
empower the community and the players. Community token holders who stake their SHILL tokens are
eligible to participate in the governance program––this includes proposing and voting on the game
development. However, SHILL token holders who do not stake their tokens will only be eligible to vote on
the proposed development done by others. They have the right to vote but not propose new projects.
DAO participants can vote on the following:
• Game Development
• Asset Library
• Equipement Development
• World Advancements in Games
• Blockchain features and developments
• Use of Community Treasury
Growth Program
Project Seed aims to drive growth through collaborations and partnerships. It offers upcoming developers
access to its assets library, marketplace, blockchain, and server backend to simplify and expedite the

most expensive parts of game development so that they can focus on the design aspects such as game
building, game mechanics, game design, level design, control, combat, gameplay, marketing, and business
development. Grow program will include but is not limited to incubation, grants, and the SEED Launcher.
SEED Launcher is a launchpad platform to help GameFi projects raise funds and help the community find
quality GameFi projects to invest in.
ESports
Over the past few years, the ESports market has distributed over $500 million in prize money and has
a growing fanbase of 250 million. This growth and clout present an opportunity for platforms such as
Project Seed to have access to this wide pool of influencers for its broad strategy of mass adoption. Project
Seed plans to enter ESports tournaments and partner with interested companies for the development
of games for ESports. The plan is for this to drive popularity and growth among the non-crypto gaming
audience.
$SHILL Token
SHILL token is Project Seed’s primary utility token for use across the entire ecosystem for trading, staking,
or voting (DAO). Players can use SHILL as a native currency in Project SEED’s game universe as the payment
method, store of value, and as a standard of deferred payment. They can also use SHILL to purchase ingame
items, pay rentals, and earn SHILL directly by playing. It is a multi-chain token that operates on a
mint-and-bunt model to balance the circulation and total supply.
SHILL token can be used for the following applications in the ecosystem:
• DAO Governance: SHILL token holders can vote on Project Seeds’ developments and future projects. They
can also send proposals to the DAO for new projects and interesting ideas if they stake their tokens.
• Staking: SHILL Token can be converted to real money and distributed based on Proof-of-Play. Besides APR,
stakers will receive a limited NFT drop by the system every season.
• NFT Crafting: NFT minting will require players to burn SHILL tokens. This process intends to maintain
healthy game economics and token supply balance.
• NFT Marketplace: The tokens can be used to purchase or rent NFTs on the marketplace.
• Dungeon Creation: Token holders can create their own dungeons for other players to play (farm), where
they could earn from other players who play (farm) in their dungeons as loot materials. Each dungeon has
a unique ID that is attached to the blockchain.
• Item Enhancements: Players can enhance their game items (minted as NFTs) to improve their statistics
and skills. Just like minting, every enhancement requires players to burn SHILL tokens.
• Zeds: In Outland Odyssey, players interact with their beasts, called Zeds. They can use SHILL tokens to
evolve their Zeds to higher levels and skills and get a leg up in the game.
• Merchant Benefits: SHILL stakers are granted Merchant Benefits; they are given greater room to list their
items on the NFT marketplace with cheaper fees. Merchants can promote their products on the front
page of the NFT marketplace through Merchant Advertisement Program. All advertisement fees are paid
in SHILL.

SHILL Token is distributed via several methods such as early token sales, staking rewards, Play-to-Earn
rewards, community grants, and community rewards. A total supply of 1,000,000,000 SHILL tokens is
maintained with a non-programmatic deflationary policy and dynamic issuance.
SHILL Token Value Accrual: In the Project Seed’s GameFi ecosystem, 5% of transactions fees in the NFT
marketplace is allocated for the following:
• 60% for Project SEED development
• 30% for community treasuries
• 10% for charities
A 0.25% fee is charged when users trade on the SEEDex. Portions of this fee are allocated for liquidity or
staking pool and for rewarding liquidity providers or SHILL stakers.
Outland Odyssey
It is the first of many games launched on the Project Seed Metaverse. It is an action RPG that allows
players to explore and survive in a dying metaverse. In the game, the players can hunt, capture, and train
creatures called ‘Zeds’ as they try to bring the metaverse back from the brink of destruction. Despite its
condition, destruction is not imminent, and the characters are still hopeful that the world can be saved.
It’s an uplifting theme about adventuring to save the world. The core gameplay loop will revolve around
combat against wild Zeds. The player will pick a quest from town and be spawned into a procedurally
generated map. Outside combat, the game revolves around exploration and crafting. The players can use
the materials earned from defeated Zeds to craft new gears and unlock new cities/lands to explore. The
game is available on Android and iOS platforms.

02 token: It is the in-game token on Outland Odyssey. It was created to help users navigate and enjoy the

community rewards.
