Entity Project Dialogues: Second Half Summary

--

Before the Entity Builders Forum shakes up the Web3 ecosystem this Saturday, let’s take a moment to recap the second half of Entity’s Project Dialogues series. Discover some of the most interesting insights from Web3 builders in DeFi, GameFi and beyond!

Finishing up strong

The Project Dialogues Twitter Spaces are all about giving the community exclusive info about building on MultiversX and the future of the blockchain world.

On March 30, we recapped the first 9 dialogues from this exciting live interview series. Over the past few months, 9 more innovative projects have joined Entity to discuss their takeaways from founding startups in DeFi, GameFi, Web3 payments, decentralized real estate, and more.

The Builders Forum on June 10 will celebrate all of these blockchain pioneers- plus some top builders from outside MultiversX.

In the meantime, read on for a comprehensive overview of the most recent dialogues with some of the best quotes, insights, and alpha!

A GameFi beast awakens

Vampire Wars is on a mission to push Web3 mass adoption by building a decentralized world of bloodthirsty vampires.

Entity was joined by Catalin Rimaru, founder and CEO of Dark Skies Studios and Vampire Wars, for a thrilling journey into the future of this project and the overall blockchain world. Powered by MultiversX and Mapbox location technology, this game turns the entire planet into an action-packed vampiric hunting ground.

“We chose entertainment, and I think that having access to high-dopamine experiences will be part of the metaverse and keeping people there.”

— Catalin Rimaru • Vampire Wars

The conversation touched on Catalin’s inspirations for the game, how the project will keep expanding in the long term, and how his team plans to limit bots and cheating during their mainnet release. Putting the ‘Fi’ in GameFi, Entity and Vampire Wars also dived into the game’s in-game economy and the tokenomics of the $DARX currency.

Leveling up Web3 payments

For CoinDrip CEO Razvan Statescu, it’s always time to build.

On April 12, Razvan joined Entity for a deep dive into the CoinDrip automated Web3 payments platform. Powered by Giants Labs, one of the primary use case for this protocol is token vesting. CoinDrip is a game-changer in this category, since it can slowly allocate private sale or team tokens over time instead of creating extra volatility with a few big unlocks.

“Especially for Web3 companies and DAOs, transparency is usually very important. The community wants way more insights into what’s going on.”

— Razvan Statescu • CoinDrip

However, this is only the beginning for CoinDrip’s potential applications. Razvan opened up to Entity about some of the project’s future plans, such as working with ZoidPay to bridge the gap between crypto and fiat. As a serial entrepreneur, Razvan also explained the inspiration behind some of his other projects in the ecosystem such as Giants Village and xDevHub.

Building a new world of decentralized gaming

History, fantasy and mind-blowing graphics collide with Age of Zalmoxis!

Powered by Wenmoon Studios, Age of Zalmoxis is an immersive MMORPG under development on MultiversX with hyper-realistic Unreal Engine technology. Project co-founder Marius Urbaniak stopped by the Entity Project Dialogues to share his take on Web3 gaming and what it’s like to be a blockchain founder.

“The historical accuracy that we achieve with the Institute of Archeology gives a lot of weight to the project.”

— Marius Urbaniak • Age of Zalmoxis

In addition to discussing the business and tokenomics roadmap for Age of Zalmoxis, Marius also explained how the game works with expert archaeologists to bring the real history of Romania to life. He also discussed the importance of community for building a successful Web3 project and laid out how Zalmoxis will use features like guilds to connect gamers and investors.

Streamlining DeFi for mass adoption

DeFi Summer means more powerful tools for MultiversX investors, but how can everyday users make the most out of these advanced features?

With next-level vaults that make DeFi accessible to everyone, Autoscale is here to help. On April 26 Quentin Diebold of Autoscale joined Entity to discuss recent milestones for this protocol and where it is heading next.

“We are putting our efforts into the user experience. It’s really our main goal to make everyone, even old guys with no knowledge in DeFi, use our products with low difficulty.”

— Quentin Diebold • Autoscale

Currently live on MultiversX devnet, Autoscale’s yield optimizer tools allow investors to earn yields without having to constantly maintain their position or compound their earnings. Quentin also talked about his optimism for the future of the MultiversX DeFi ecosystem, and how Autoscale can integrate and support other protocols like AshSwap, Hatom, OneDex, and more.

The future of gaming is now

With stunning open-world graphics and a strong community, Cyberpunk City is definitely a top GameFi project to watch.

In Project Dialogue #14, Cyberpunk City’s Jack Melar joined Entity for a voyage into the future of Web3. Jack laid out the competitive advantages for Cyberpunk and how this project blends the best of gaming, blockchain and the metaverse into one highly engaging experience.

“We are building on Unreal Engine, so it’s like a proper game and a proper metaverse at the same time.”

— Jack Melar • Cyberpunk City

Jack talked about how Cyberpunk City has cultivated a strong community so far, with a range of ecosystem partnerships and two NFT collections currently in the top five in weekly $EGLD volume (CityNFT and CitizenNFT). This interview also highlighted the intersection between AI and gaming, and how Cyberpunk aims to use artificial intelligence to create dynamic new game mechanics.

Reinventing the world of payments

Are you ready for xMoney?

The Web3 payment heavyweights at xMoney (formerly Utrust) stopped by the Entity Project Dialogues for a glimpse into their mission to supercharge the decentralized financial ecosystem. In this inspiring discussion, CPO Martinho Aragão explained the future trajectory of Utrust as they prepared to transform into xMoney along with the fiat payment experts at Twispay.

“I could see us having cards connected to different networks, and when you go to the ATM you can choose which network to use.”

Martinho Aragão • xMoney

The conversation covered pain points such as dealing with volatility as well as future opportunities such as developing decentralized credit card systems. Adoption is a core focus for Martinho and his colleagues, and he confirmed this is an area where the project is pushing very hard. With the widespread release of xMoney cards expected in the near future, the future of money may be closer than you think.

Kickstarting Web3 real estate

Real estate is a multi-trillion dollar market, and the team at Blok seeks to supercharge this industry into the Web3 era.

The builders at Blok are hard at work creating next-level tokenized real estate assets- right here on MultiversX. Entity had a lively conversation with this promising French Web3 project, discussing Blok’s plans to catalyze blockchain adoption through decentralizing the real estate world.

“Adding US dollars (to stablecoins) is nice, but in the future maybe you will want to trade something that is not backed by a fiat currency but directly by something physical.”

— Philippe Martin • BLOK

Philippe Martin, CTO of Blok, discussed the value proposition of the project as a more direct and democratic way to invest in property. He also explained that the project has careful plans to overcome various hurdles in regards to compliance, liquidity, and decentralized decision making. With a minimum investment stake of just €50, Blok could make real estate more accessible than ever before.

More power for DeFi Summer

It’s always a build market for the team at JewelSwap.

Co-founder Viktor Vostrikov joined Entity to explain how this innovative DeFi project has already shipped a range of useful features that help the MultiversX community get the most out of their tokens and NFTs. Powered by Combased and Epunks, JewelSwap combines the best of both the DeFi and NFT worlds with lending, leveraged pools and more.

“JewelSwap actually helps every NFT collection, since you can tell your community ‘look, there’s another utility’.”

— Viktor Vostrikov • JewelSwap

By depositing your NFTs as collateral, JewelSwap users can immediately access liquidity to use in other investment strategies. But JewelSwap is far from being a one-trick pony, as they also offer mortgaged NFT purchases, high-powered farms for AshSwap and OneDex, supercharged token staking, and more. This insightful dialogue covered key topics such as security and analytics- plus a special preview of future synergies and tools.

The crypto liquidity revolution has arrived

Last but not least, ZoidPay stopped by for a high-energy discussion of the Web3 payments landscape!

While Eduard Oneci was not able to join as planned, Business Development Executive Denis Onica stepped in and did an admirable job explaining the project’s recent milestones and future roadmap for this hardcore project. The discussion covered the upcoming ZoidPay Super App, the shopping revolution of the ZoidVerse, and the cross-chain firepower of their ZoidCore suite.

“Rather than building separate bridges for each blockchain, we actually want to integrate all of those bridges in a single interface.”

— Denis Onica • ZoidPay

Denis explained that while the road to a seamless Web3 payment world is not easy, the potential benefits and growth opportunities are extremely vast. With a range of exciting products in development, stay tuned as ZoidPay could be a major catalyst for MultiversX mass adoption.
