$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.
