Founder NFTs

Ideas

The first four generations of NFTs are 100 Founder NFTs, and their quantities, are:

  1. Platinum Founder NFT - 10 copies

  2. Gold Founder NFT - 20 copies

  3. Silver Founder NFT - 30 copies

  4. Bronze Founder NFT - 40 copies

Each generation of NFT earns 1% interest from the revenue generated by successive NFT generations, and 50% of their generational revenue. The Founder DAO earns 0.1% of the revenue generated by every Generation 3 NFT, etc.

With the new dynamic real-estate idea, I wonder if there is something interesting we can do with the 'generations' and land-creation, regarding the Founder NFTs.

Do they represent land? That would go against the meritocratic real-estate concept… it would seem unfair if everyone had to work hard to get to the centre, where others could just sit on central property they were lucky enough or rich enough to buy. It would mimmick the owners of all of the important land in the real world. We work hard to try to achieve financial security, while some are born into it.

Perhaps land plots need to 'breed' with Founder NFTs to create new land? Like how in Zedrun, Stallions are required for Mare's to breed with.

That would make Founder NFTs very expensive to buy… but would it make breeding with them too expensive?

The Founder NFTs could be where the genotypes come from… breeding with some NFTs with more favourable genotypes could generate more valuable land…

Maybe the Founder NFTs could represent culture/vibes… that different districts or areas of cities have… New York vibes, Singapore vibes… Chinatown vibes…

And the genotypes are also influenced by the existing land that is breeding with it… which is why you will tend to get organically themed areas of the City, as those land parcels 'breed', and extend their genotypes… so you would get a china town emerge… but with some variation influence from the Founder NFTs.

The problem with this is that you would get lots of people buying land that is already in the centre, or near the centre… and so this negates the meritocracy of the metaverse… what happens with these land parcels? Do they remain part of that original land's neighbourhood? Would that potentially result in a well performing land parcel—a towering skyscraper—surrounded by poor performing land parcels? So rather than the centre being populated with skyscrapers, you would get isolated skyscrapers surrounded by potentially hundreds or thousands of small buildings… which isn't what we want.

Neighbourhoods can create land… that makes sense… but funds? Maybe residential property has to breed with commercial property?

It makes sense for fund real-estate to be 100% meritocratic.

And residential real-estate could be sold… as it will have value due to the neighbourhood it is within.

Maybe every ASLN state, that gives you an NFT, is represented in the Metaverse in some way?

To stake ASLN on a fund—who has property in the Metaverse—moves you closer to that property? And the more ASLN you stake, the more gravity it expresses on the staker?

That makes sense.

Maybe these genotype NFTs can be 'bred with' at any time, if existing properties want to shake things up and change their existing property?

Maybe they couldn't afford their desired look/feel/vibe before, but now they can?

Perhaps there is a supply/demand dynamic, in that there is a limited number of these Genotype NFTs, and they can only be 'bred' with after periods of time have passed, like how it takes Stallions a certain amount of time before they can breed again.

The most in demand would naturally end up more expensive. If there is only ONE genotype of something desirable, then it is very rare, and the owner can demand a very high price to 'breed' with it, as it will produce a much more rare land parcel—but maybe that land parcel will still start on the outskirts of the City, like all others. So it doesn't change the new land's location? At least until that land can join a neighbourhood? And maybe it makes getting accepted into a neighbourhood a lot more likely, as your more valuable land will contribute to the genotype of that Neighbourhood, and make it more likely that they will be able to produce more valuable land?

Spirits - maybe add a fantasy element to the Metaverse?

Vibes - add a more fun Cryptopunk angle… city districts… land parcels have 'vibes'… or maybe 'vibe' is one of the many genotype categories? As in, some districts can just be 'cooler' than others, because they've got a cooler vibe? Just like how every city has a 'cool' area, where the cool people hang out… these areas would have cool bars, cafes and restaurants… and at night you would see them come to life.

Perhaps there is a Sims element to the game, where every citizen has a person who lives in the city… and their status and experience in life is determined by the performance of that citizen in the metaverse? The more successful their fund, or their investments, the better that avatar does… the better his clothes, the better people treat him, the nicer car he (or she) drives… etc.

So your avatar is like a Sim, or a Tamagotchi… but their 'life' is directly a product of your financial performance within the Kingsilver metaverse.

The avatars could all interact in ways that are decided by AI, according to their successes and failures of their performance.

You could wake up one morning, check the Metaverse to see what your avatar is up to, and see that he's got arrested for drink driving and is currently in jail… or you might find that he went out drinking last night and is in bed with a hangover… or that he started a new job.

Avatars could be influenced by which neighbourhoods you join, but the Funds you stake on, the amount you stake, etc.

Maybe these avatars could all have blue skin… which adds an extra layer of privacy, as you won't have a clue what race the person is. It also eliminates the possibility of discrimination.

Perhaps the neighbourhood you live in, affects your fashion… the way the character looks?

Perhaps the Founder NFTs are Architect NFTs? And you "work with" different architects who who can create different types of real-estate?

This is going in the right direction… so you don't 'breed' to create land… existing land "works with" or "hires" an Architect to create new real-estate. And maybe Architects can collaborate to combine genotypes? Perhaps Architects can develop their skill level by training… which could require staking ASLN… or perhaps by Architects could enhance or develop their genotype potency by 'collaborating' with Architects with similar genotypes… like with Bloodlines? If you breed two horses with the same blood line, it will create that blood line.

Architect NFTs.

Do Architects create the vibes of the land? No… Perhaps the vibe-style genotypes organically develop from your location in the metaverse… your proximity to 'vibe' centres… neighbourhoods, funds, etc… organically changes the genotypes of that property?

But the way it looks… the buildings… that is from the Architects who created that land.

Perhaps there is a 'three-way' creation process… instead of 'breeding' two things… three things are needed to create new land… an Architect… a cultural figure… and existing land.

The Cultural figure has the vibes, the cool, the spirit, the feeling… of the land.

Or… perhaps the existing land is where the vibes come from. The more valuable the existing land, the better the vibe that the new land gets?

Maybe the Generations also impact the genotype… the earlier the generation, the more rare a genotype becomes… because maybe new genotypes develop with each generation?

Maybe Architect NFTs aren't fixed-supply… but the supply (creation/sale) of Architect NFTs are dynamically decided based on the growth of the real-estate market? Like how a central bank can adjust interest rates, or print money, in order to keep the economy healthy… new Architects can be created when the demand for property increases too much… this prevents new land becoming too expensive. New Architects wouldn't be designed to decrease the cost of working with existing Architects, but to keep introducing lower priced options, so there is always land that is affordable, no matter your budget.

So perhaps Architect NFTs are generational? Perhaps Architects can 'train up' the newer architects… and those newer architects will share the same genotypes… but they won't be as potent… and maybe architects can collaborate to train up architects who have different genotypes… and so they actually produce something novel? What happens when you combine Ancient Roman with Japanese?

Maybe when we announce new Architects… we create new genotypes and tell people what combinations will create the desired result?

Like home in MMOs you need different items, skills, etc, to create something new? Like a recipe?

So land is created by Architects… and maybe something else CAN be used to

Perhaps the Architect cards can actually be based on real life architects who shaped the world around us?

The 'influence' of each architect then influenced the architects who come after them. Where did the ancient roman architecture originate from? How about Greek? Cathedrals? How about Modern buildings? Gothic? Brutalist? Art-Deco? Bohemian? Renaissance? Neoclassicism

https://www.ranker.com/fact-lists/buildings/style

And the styles that become the most valuable will simply be down to supply and demand… the architectural styles that people find the most desirable will be the ones that are the most wanted.

Architecture embodies the values of the culture. If you want to know what a culture values, look to the architecture they create.

Perhaps we could gauge the scarcity of the architecture style by the demand for them in the Architect NFT launch? The most in demand actually result in the fewest available, and the least in demand result in the most available?

Perhaps once per year, or something like that… there is a randomly generated 'great wonder' property… like a pyramid… colossus, a great lake, great bridge, a statue of liberty… etc… and it isn't owned by anyone, but will appear in a location that is influenced by the success of that region? Having property near a 'great wonder' would increase the value of that property.

Perhaps the city will be littered with statues celebrating the best performing and/or greatest contributing citizens?

The Metaverse would be like Monopoly meets Sims meets Civilisation meets ZedRun meets GrandTheft Auto Online.

So, back to the Architect NFTs…

We want to mimic bloodlines… would these be the architectural styles? Except the demand for different architectural styles would be based on supply and demand… we can't decide beforehand which architectural styles are 'the best', where in ZedRun horses can be faster, slower, breed faster, etc…

Breeding decay…

Coat Colour Rarity

Blueprint NFTs?

Perhaps as well as 'Architect' NFTs… there are also Blueprints… which only certain Architects… or architect levels/generation/genotype etc can build with?

So perhaps land requires an Architect and a Blueprint? And maybe land is created when Kingsilver grows? The new land is a product of value being created? A symbol for capitalism, in that value is created, rather than being taken from someone else?

Blueprints are 3D designs created by 3d designers… maybe they are the real Architects? And maybe those architects need Architect NFTs to 'mint' their blueprints?

Architects could decide on the quantity their blueprints come in. Special one-of-a-kind blueprints would go to auction and sell for a huge amount compared to a blueprint that is abundant with copies. Would you rather own real-estate that looks like 1,000 other real estate, or a one-of-a-kind design, something like the Burj Khalifa?

Builder NFTs?

Architects design… builders build… perhaps the better Builder NFT, the faster the new building is created… or the new land formed?

Is there a different between buildings and land? Does land have an architecture style… or is land neutral until built on?

Raw Material NFTs?

Raw materials… perhaps, just like how you need love potions to produce Axies (and these love potions can be found 'in game' and/or sold on the secondary market)… perhaps they can be 'mined' or somehow earned in the metaverse… and then also sold on secondary markets?

  • Steel

  • Wood

  • Concrete

  • Glass

  • Etc…

Raw material that have to be bought or produced gives real estate even more inherent value…

Where could you get raw materials from? Could there be an industrial district? Or could you build industrial plants?

Maybe the Architects are the ones who have to collect the raw materials and the blueprint, and then offer the building as a complete product, to land owners. That creates the market for raw materials and blueprints, but it is the Architects that do all the work, and so land owners just have to choose the building they want and pay for it.

Land LFTs

If existing land is required to create new land… then the more central that existing land, the more valuable the new land must be (in some way).

Perhaps land cells are hexagonal, and so moving towards or away from the centre is quite straight forward.

Perhaps the money spent on the real-estate makes the land more valuable, and therefore protects it's location to a large degree.

The more valuable real-estate becomes, the more it can provide leverage to the owner in all kinds of ways… e.g, as collateral for loans.

What is property moved closer to the centre the most valuable it becomes, and the better the Fund performs, but if the Fund starts performing badly it doesn't lose its location… it just stops moving closer? So you are rewarded for good performance, but you are not punished for bad performance. That way real-estate retains its value, so long as others do out begin succeeding even more. So real-estate maintains its value, but will slowly diminish, as others out-succeed it.

How do you strike the balance between having real estate as an investment that can grow in value over time, and also can be made more valuable due to hard work and value creation… while at the same time not turning the metaverse into a monopoly where early adopters have such a crazy head-start, with such valuable and central property that it just becomes impossible for a new person to have any chance at competing.

But if anyone one can easily dethrone central real-estate… that takes away the incentive to invest in making a piece of real-estate better.

But if the most valuable, central real-estate, can eventually lose all of its value, or get pushed to the outskirts of the city, just through inaction… does that detract from the incentive to invest in your real-estate? We all want to work hard, but not for things that you have to keep working hard to maintain otherwise all your hard work is erased. We want to work hard and have the fruits of our work be lasting, so we can eventually stop working, relax and enjoy the fruits of our labour.

Floors

Perhaps buildings grow, floor by floor, based on the performance of the funds their represent? And the Architects designing buildings have to design them with multiple versions, so the building can dynamically express the success of its owner?

Footprint

Perhaps as buildings grow in height, they are also gifted a bigger footprint, since taller buildings will require bigger bases. Architects will then also have to factor this in when they design their buildings.

Multidimensional Real-Estate

Architects will have to design, not just static structures, but 4 dimensional dynamic structures that change (and grow). So a building could start with a single floor building, on one land parcel, and have designs for every single stage of evolution all the way up to a 200 floors… but perhaps the real-estate can be dynamically updated… so Architects only need to design it up to a certain amount of floors that they believe would take someone a long time to achieve… and then as owners of their buildings approach those levels they can update their designs.

Real-estate footprints growing with the success of the Fund (or resident, if a residential plot)

Or, probably better… as an owner 'levels up', and their real-estate plot grows, they can choose to purchase bigger buildings… that's probably a better solution—that way they don't have to rely on an Architect constantly updating their original Blueprint.

It would also create a supply and demand market… where smaller buildings will be quite in demand, and so would likely be cheaper as Architects would produce 'mass produced' small buildings… but since less and less real-estate will grow large enough to accommodate very large buildings, they will naturally be sold for a lot more, and those customers would demand one-of-a-kind designs.

Perhaps land owners could sell their buildings once their land has grown and they wish to purchase a bigger building… so there is a secondary market for buildings?

So, lots of ideas here… and we don't need to have these all nailed down before our advisor call… and even before we sell our NFTs… we just need to have the macro mechanics dialled in… or at least enough where we know what NFTs we're going to be selling, how they're valuable, and how they fit into the bigger picture.

Top Ideas so far for the Founder NFT sale:

  • Architecture Styles (Knowledge)

  • Founding Architects

    • Architects produce (train up) the next generation of architects, who train up the next generation of architects, etc… and each new generation get further away from the 'original' architects who produce the most valuable land/real-estate. Genesis Architects will be the most expensive to work with (or buy), while later generations may be very cheap as there are more of them and they produce less valuable real-estate.

    • The later the generation of architect, the smaller (in height and footprint) the buildings they can create.

    • Founding Architects are qualified/trained in certain architectural styles.

    • Maybe Architects with different styles training up new Architects can create brand new architectural styles that trace the real biography/history of architecture? But then our founder Architects would only include a small selection of very early architects… but that would produce a natural evolution to the buildings within the city… and produce a city that expresses the whole history of architecture… just like how really old cities, like Athens, Rome, etc, have a mix of ancient, old, and new architecture… and so there is a story baked into the development of the city.

  • Blueprints (pre-design)

  • Vibes (Cryptopunk style genotype additions to real-estate?)

  • Raw Material producing Real-Estate

  • Architect Academies (that specialise in particular architecture styles?)

  • The first land plots…
