Hello there Mallfam!

We are happy to announce LandIndex and Mallconomy are teaming up to improve our users Metaverse experience, by providing access to the right tools to analyse key data, whilst enjoying a seamless end user experience under Mallconomy´s Metaverse.

LandIndex is a new kind of data aggregator for the Metaverse, providing an analytics tool that helps businesses, investors and end users to understand the value of the land at Metaverse. By providing a comprehensive overview of land prices, ownership, and investment across the different Metaverses, including Decentraland, The Sandbox and many more. LandIndex aims to become the chosen tool for everyone to look at before making any investment move.

Even better, LandIndex is entering the NFT arena by providing easy access to Pro versions of their products by selling NFTs as access keys which will make the process of signing up, signing in and even transferring your own account access to another person even better, simpler and easier than regular methods. This will open a wide range of opportunities for their customers, making it possible to enjoy new perks and accessing new products just by holding the right kind of NFT…forever. How cool is that?!

Another little gem developed by LandIndex is Landex: while LandIndex brings you the latest and most versatile data about LAND in the Metaverse, Landex will bring you a platform where you will be able to find the best people for the best job in the major Metaverses, such as Decentraland and Sandbox. So now you can find the best combo of LAND plus the best Creators to make your Metaverse dreams come true.

Whether you are trying to understand better how the Metaverse land buying and selling process works, to make the best investment you can afford, or find the best creators for your dream team, to launch the next big product, you will find in LandIndex has the right tools that fit your needs, no matter if you are a newbie or a battle-hardened investor.

It was such a pleasure to talk to the team at LandIndex a few weeks ago, as part of our regular schedule of Mallconomy AMAs. For those of you who missed it, here is a chance to revisit our awesome AMA session, so you can get to know better what is LandIndex and why you should use their incredible set of tools and join us both, Mallconomy and LandIndex in our amazing Metaverse journey!

AMA transcript

Mallconomy Host

Well, hello people and welcome everyone to Mallconomy´s Official Telegram chatroom!

It´s 14:00 UK time and it is time for another great AMA session!!

It’s been almost a week since our last AMA session and we´re here today, hosting another incredible, informative and funny AMA with another special guest.

LandIndex AMA Guest

Great to be here guys. pls feel free to ask anything as this is our first AMA as landindex & curious to see what ppl expect from our side

Mallconomy Host

Happy to have you here @dr653 …. Btw…@dr653 will be our special guest today….Let us all give a warm welcome to @dr653 representing https://www.landindex.io/

As always, our Community members should know the basic rules we follow to develop different AMA sessions right here in our official Telegram channel: chat will be closed for everyone until we finish the official Q&A part of the AMA (only our guest and myself will be able to write). After we finish this part chat will be opened again for up to 5 minutes for everyone to send your own questions and then we will close the chat again so our guest can freely reply all questions sent by our lovely Community.

@dr653 would you please introduce yourself to our lovely Community? Just for a soft start….

LandIndex AMA Guest

Sure — I’m Onat — based between Turkey and Thailand. I’ve spent the last 5 years or so in Singapore doing my PhD on digital platforms and being fully immersed in the crypto space in one way or the other. Metaverse is my new main interest hence we founded Landindex with my co-founders Mert and Jen.

They’re also both crypto-native ppl with a strong presence in the NFT space overall.

Mallconomy Host

Well Onat……nice to meet you!

I can see you have lots on your hands right now but we all share here the same love for the NFT, Metaverse and Crypto world.

Once again Onat….welcome to Mallconomy Official Telegram Chatroom, it’s a pleasure having you around.

So, shall we start? J

Let´s start our AMA with two simple questions so our comunity can understand better what´s all about when we refer to LandIndex from now on:

What is LandIndex? Can you explain us a bit about your company and the purpose behind your product?

LandIndex AMA Guest

Landindex is essentially a data aggregator for the metaverse. It provides features that enable its users to navigate, compare and plan around $LAND prices across many metaverses on Ethereum. Landindex provides the resources on the internet right now to see all $LAND prices (most importantly Decentraland and Sandbox) together ++ Otherside deeds we also cover in detail:

https://www.landindex.io/projects/otherside

We actually have another website launching within our platform soon, it’ll be a creator platform similar to Fiverr, so the structure will expand into two main parts:

- Landindex: The tool for navigating and compares all metaverse parcel data in unprecedented detail.

- Landex: Finding creators in the metaverse is the next decade’s technology investment play. Metaverse NFTs on Ethereum are growing at a rapid pace, and landindex.io assists its users in navigating the growing space.

Land(index) refers to indexing data and Land(Ex) refers to the exchanges we’ll faciliate between metaverse participants.

Currently it’s a very ad hoc and imperfect process to find builders and artists to hire on the metaverse. We hope to streamline this.

We are also launching an education course for corporates who are interested in learning about the metaverse so stay tuned on that too.

Mallconomy Host

Wow! Really awesome all the things you get planned for the future!

Let´s talk a bit about Team members now.

Our community is always eager to know more about the the real humans, the real people behind projects we´re partnering up so, can you tell us a bit more about the core Team? Who are you? Where are you from?

LandIndex AMA Guest

We are an international team based across Turkey, Thailand and the USA. We have pretty prominent board members who are our early investors from the Ethereum ecosystem. Me and Mert are doing most the strategic planning and operational organisation — we have 3 back end developers and now hiring a new front end developer (let us know if interested!)

Mallconomy Host

Well people…LandIndex is hiring! Any Front End developers here? Just let him know!

LandIndex AMA Guest

@edusnahro is our media manager since last month.

So we’re 7 ppl working full time on this once the new front end developer joins us. We also have 7 board members with experience in the NFT space who’ve been helpful in many ways.

Mallconomy Host

It is an awesome team, no doubts…. that will become stronger as time goes on and new and like-minded members land on the same boat!!!

LandIndex AMA Guest

Agree. we were 12 ppl at one point actually (including part-timers) as we built out the current live version. Now we’re becoming leaner and more efficient as the product has found its final form. Looking to expand the team once again once the Landex and education sections are fully out.

Mallconomy Host

We already know you offer a FREE version of your product but at the same time you offer a PRO+ subscription offering more features for people who actually buy it.

Which are the core differences between both? Can you explain us a bit the benefits on becoming PRO+?

LandIndex AMA Guest

Sure — we believe basic financial data should be free to use but if you want full detail of all the happenings in the Metaverse — we offer a Pro+ version, slated to mint on Sept 1.

Let me list the advantages of getting Pro+:

- Full access to education program we will launch

- Full access to our alpha group on Discord

- Full access to live data from the Decentraland Metaverse

- 100+ Monthly new components / Data Sets

- Special Weekly Reports (mailing)

- Quarterly Industry reports

- WL opportunities to new Metaverse projects

- Dedicated community for digital lands

- Monthly giveaway raffles

- IOS/Android Mobile Apps full access

- Free Consultation for all Pro+ users

Mallconomy Host

Lots of perks! 🎁 Too many advantages becoming a PRO+ for sure!

LandIndex AMA Guest

We’ll reserve whitelist spots for Mallconomy community of course — planning to launch 1000 of these access keys.

Mallconomy Host

Talking about NFTs now….

LandIndex, as many other companies out there linked somehow to crypto arena, is entering the NFT space by releasing a Genesis NFT collection which will make possible for people to hold one of your NFTs and become a PRO+ subscriber.

Could you explain in few words why choosing the NFT technology to achieve this?

LandIndex AMA Guest

A few reasons:

- It is transferable to other wallets of your self (wgmi.io’s access key style, it’s a website I personally use to track my portfolio value, much recommended as a year-long member) > Total value accrual to user as it is true ownership of a key instead of a simple login

- It also enables us not to deal with the operational mess that comes with traditional e-commerce.

In a sense, it’s the best practice in the industry right now so we plan to accomplish a wide user base that is happy to hold this NFT for a long time.

Mallconomy Host

Very true! As our Community members already know, LandIndex is not the only partner we have brought to our AMA sessions using the NFT tech to grant people PRO access to their products and services…Maybe not today but in the future this could become the standard for authentication services and even for login flows…

LandIndex AMA Guest

Yeah. it’s just an overall better experience, as other ppl can see your membership too. Our education platform will also use this technology, as we’ll mint the certificates of completion for it as POAPs to be minted in the Decentraland.

Mallconomy Host

Can you tell us more about your Genesis collection? Do you plan to release further NFTs collections in the future that will be functional to your current products or other products you may build?

LandIndex AMA Guest

We are releasing the NFT as “Pro+”. We are providing access to our most important data systems and content. Different collections may be released in the future, of course, why not?

Mallconomy Host

Your company defines itself as “a Metaverse Data Aggregation & Analytics tool…to understand the value of the land at Metaverse.” So this bring the unavoidable question that follows:

Why only focusing in data from the Metaverse lands? Why not analyzing data from other sources as well?

LandIndex AMA Guest

The reason why we focused only on Metaverse data was that we wanted to create a specific tool in the field we are experts in. When you come to the restaurant, we do not offer both fish, kebab and dried beans 😄 We offer the only dish we know best, and we plan to do it at top industry standards.

Mallconomy Host

Yes…totally agree…. focusing only in things you master will allow you to develop and deliver better products for your end users….

LandIndex AMA Guest

Yeah its also the most understudied part of the nft space according to our observation.

Mallconomy Host

Ok, @dr653 we´re already ending the official Q&A part of our AMA session and our Community knows by now that we always save one last question, that one that everyone here is waiting for…

Why partnering up with Mallconomy? What do you expect about this partnership and how you believe this partnership will help your company and community to be successful in a future?

LandIndex AMA Guest

For partnerships in the tech space, a certain thematic chemistry needs to be there. We’re both early stage startups in the metaverse and so far, everything has went very smoothly with the good ppl at Mallconomy. They have a great team and media presence, we are confident that it will be beneficial for both sides as we launch our products into the hands of thousands of users. We both want to expand and improve the metaverse experience for the average participant.

Mallconomy Host

…and we´re happy for sure on have partnered with you! We will try to bring close our communities and teams to build better products and make the Metaverse a better place to “live”

Ok people, that´s all for the official Q&A part of our AMA today.

Thanks to our guest Onat for sharing his points of views with our lovely community and giving us such amazing info about LandInex products!

Now chat will be opened again for up to 5 minutes so community users can send their own questions. Please note that our AMA guest will pick and answer as many questions as possible if time permits. Questions that remained unanswered here (because of time limits) could be properly replied in LandIndex social properties we will share in the transcript of our AMA session.

COMMUNITY QUESTIONS — BEGIN

Luis Fernando/

My main question is how the idea of ​​creating LandIndex was born, how long has it been operating? Furthermore, Landindex has launched its own Genesis NFT collection, which grants holders special benefits. Can you explain us a little more about this release, prices, utilities, markets, and how they relate to web3? Finally, I would like to know if it is in your plans to launch a native token? Thank you very much!

LandIndex AMA Guest

We don’t plan to launch a native token, we’ll be launching NFTs as access keys instead. We’re not planning to have any kind of defi product, for now at least.

DERR/

In provide a services to compare land at metaverse, what are datails information that Landidex collected for certain land,.are them realtime data?

LandIndex AMA Guest

Hey do pls visit: https://www.landindex.io/ and check dozens of different categories we keep data of (floor prices, trait rarity, traffic…) for a number of major Metaverses

Zack/

What would be your suggestion to the Metaverse builders after all the data you studied so far?

LandIndex AMA Guest

We suggest them to not re-create the real world there but use the freedom that comes with the metaverse space. Think more originally, push the boundaries of design.

A lot of ppl just recreate office-building looking voxels… why not be a bit more creative with new designs. Think of events that can only be done in the Metaverse…

Our revenue streams will be from NFT sales, extra perks on the creator platform, extra education programs/advisory, advertisements on our platforms from relevant participants. Various ways!

COMMUNITY QUESTIONS — END

Mallconomy Host

Well, thank you Onat. I guess that this will be all for our today´s community question session and definitely it will be all for our AMA guest. Let’s give please a round of applause to our awesome @dr653!

Many thanks to everyone for joining today’s AMA session in our official Telegram chatroom.

Time to say good bye and nicely finish our awesome 3rd AMA in our official channel.
