Overview
DeFi currently suffers from a high barrier of entry, provoking a large number of Web3 users from participating in it due to the intricate and complex level of understanding to fully engage its technology — Entangle included. We asked ourselves, how can we simplify and break down this amazing but overly complex infrastructure which we’ve spent 18+ months developing? Webverse was the answer.
The Webverse is an alternate reality that embodies Entangle Protocol’s infrastructure. By adapting our infrastructure into a lore-driven NFT project, we transform complex ideas into engaging narratives. While NFTs have provided a simple entry point into Web3, their integration into DeFi has not yet fully materialized. Our goal with Webverse is to bridge this gap, making it easier for the average Web3 user to understand and appreciate the benefits of DeFi.
Throughout our journey at Entangle we’ve crafted a customizable and interoperable data infrastructure built for institutions and Web3. With our innovative developments, we’ve realized that NFTs will be a vital part of our future, opening up new possibilities for our ecosystem and community. This understanding is a key reason behind the launch of the Webverse, as we are eager to showcase the true potential of NFTs in the DeFi industry.
Utility of NFTs
Price:
Weavers: 0.15 ETH
Agents: 0.5 ETH
Mint Date: January 5th, 2024
The collection is split into two categories:
- Weavers (4700 Supply)
- Agents (300 Supply)
Weavers
Weavers are a piece of energy which allow you to unlock an alternate reality of Entangle’s infrastructure.
Weavers will provide you exclusive access into the Entangle Ecosystem.
Holders will be able to stake their Weavers to benefit from every aspect of Entangle’s infrastructure and dApps including:
- Liquid Vaults
- Photon messaging layer
- Data Feeds
Rewards for staking accumulate with extended staking duration — leading to higher rewards.
Agents
Agents represent an advanced form of Weavers, having the ability to perform off-chain data information collection and aggregation.
Agents receive the same base benefits as Weavers in addition to:
Agents will receive additional access to Entangle’s Public round.
In addition to these extra benefits the Agents will be at a higher mint price than the Weavers.
Entangle will delegate a fixed amount of tokens to agents for bootstrapping our infrastructure.
Utility of $NGL
The $NGL token plays a crucial role in powering our ecosystem and has several vital use cases, including:
- Staking as a Delegator or Infrastructure Provider for Keepers
- Staking as a Validator or Delegator for the Entangle Blockchain
- Utilizing Entangle as a connected application
- Gas Fees on Entangle Blockchain
Sources of Revenue
Photon Messaging Protocol
The Photon Messaging Protocol facilitates the secure exchange of messages across EVM and non-EVM Blockchains. This enables Builders & Protocols to acquire smart contract states on other blockchains, facilitating cross-chain trading dApps and yield strategies. This includes token bridges, DAOs, Cross-Chain Money Market protocols, and Launchpads that accept collateral from various chains. Developers can deploy smart contracts on our blockchain, which function as decision-making entities responsible for generating specific operations based on input data and corresponding logic.

Price Feeds
Entangle delivers a suite of authenticated and verifiable cryptocurrency price feeds for trading applications. Currently, Entangle offers distinct feeds across 10 blockchains, specializing in derivatives such as LSDs and LP Tokens to enable collateralization of yield-bearing assets. Builders and Protocols can design their own unique data feeds, sourced from various points, including blockchain or real-world data, whilst having the ability to build their own logic for calculations and outputs. As a result, Entangle continues to enhance liquidity provider incentives, unlock a wave of use-cases whilst driving liquidity optimization and capital efficiency to partner ecosystems.

Liquid Vaults
Liquid Vaults is the native dApp built on the Entangle stack, optimizing liquidity through the refinancing of yield-bearing assets, such as LP Tokens. (currently live on 10 blockchains). Liquid Vaults enhance liquidity retention and users’ yield by enabling 1:1 asset backed Liquid Staking Derivatives (LSDs) that can be utilised for more DeFi strategies.
Entangle and its native dApp are paving the way for many changes in DeFi, including new liquidity layer and composable Real-World Assets on-chain.

Entangle’s Roadmap
At its base, Entangle is the interoperable infrastructure providing builders with full customization to compose secure, verifiable, and interoperable data pathways and a modular blockchain hub to launch and execute smart contract operations.
Builders can design their own unique systems with added control over the processing and execution of cross-chain operations. Moreover, the infrastructure enables the flexibility to configure consensus mechanisms and customize off-chain entities responsible for on/off-chain data collection and validation. Designed with institutions in mind, the customization also includes the ability to add local external keeper entities to partake in data collection and validation.
Due to this unique architecture, our team has plans to develop several exciting and novel dApps. These will be interconnected and designed to be revenue-centric within the Entangle ecosystem. Currently, the team is discussing the development of:
- Cross-chain V3 DEX
- Cross-chain Launchpad
- Leverage Yield Farming protocol
- Liquidity Lottery System
With the development of these products, we plan to grant NFT holders exclusive access to several perks associated with each new offering.
