Bitcoin’s Rising Tide Lifts TVL of Stacks Blockchain

At the time of writing, the blockchain industry is still going through its coldest winter yet. The prolonged bear market had caused many projects to collapse. The entire market was haunted by FUD, which dwarfed investor confidence to an all-time low. It takes a lot of courage for any project to tread such treacherous waters. But amid the dire state, a Vietnam-based NFT project called WAAA seems to be thriving.

WAAA (short for We Are All Alike) is currently Vietnam’s most anticipated PFP NFT project. Announced in the last quarter of 2022, WAAA had received over US$1,000,000 in early seeding investment from potential investors queuing up to join the project.

Let’s get to know some notable features of this new PFP NFT project to find out what makes it special in the eyes of local and global NFT communities.

The team

WAAA assembled a team of professional community builders with expertise in incubating and growing young talent, as well as experience working on successful projects of similar scope to WAAA.

Their co-founders are no strangers to the local market. They founded CREATORY, a Vietnam-based talent management company with over seven years of success in the digital entertainment industry. They have successfully cultivated Vietnam’s earliest generation of streamers with notable names such as Misthy, PewPew, Oops Banana, etc., and received over 20 gold buttons from YouTube. CREATORY is also the biggest supporter of WAAA updated.

The universe

What makes this NFT collection unique is that it was not based on a theme, but revolves around the entire futuristic universe of WAAA. The creation concept takes place in a metropolis in 2099 AD. where a subset of humans called Lifemancers arise with the ability to use Life Force, the power of Mother Nature, to breathe life into everyday objects and perform incredible feats.

The story follows the ideological clash between Lifemancers over the future of planet Earth. But how the story unfolds will be decided by the members of the community. You can start reading the latest WAAA chapters at waaa.xyz to understand more about their setup.

Furthermore, the project’s ambition is to make WAAA an IP brand that can be extended to various entertainment formats, such as merchandise, cartoons, animations, etc., which will help increase the value of the original NFT collection.

The collection itself

Working hand in hand with Crazy Monkey, one of Vietnam’s highly regarded artists, who has also made a name for himself in the Web3 industry, brings a refreshing look to WAAA’s NFT collection with his modern manga aesthetic. Furthermore, as revealed in their first AWA, behind the mind of their creative director extraordinaire is a team of over 20 studio artists working hard to refine every detail of the collection.

The collection will have 4 rare tiers which are Common (60%), Rare (20%), Epic (15%) and Legendary (5%). Furthermore, each NFT will consist of 10 different traits with varying rarity as well.

The total number and prices are currently under discussion and will be announced by the team soon. In the meantime, you can win a whitelist spot from their weekly giveaway or join their application program.

Cooperation

A series of partners with a robust community from Vietnam and major countries in the world are always ready to support the project with all their might. Currently, the Airdrop whitelists are gradually rolling out, satisfying the NFT thirst of tens of thousands of people.

The application program

The project was announced in mid-November, along with a referral program. However, due to high demand, the referral program quickly became overloaded within a few hours of its release. So the only way you can get a place on the whitelist is via the Application Program.

Just connect to the wallet on the website. Answer a short survey consisting of 6 questions, submit and wait for your application to be assessed.

Since WAAA handpicks each applicant, it may take some time before one is approved. So if you want to be a part of WAAA, it’s best to join the application program as soon as possible.

DAO

One of the biggest benefits of owning a WAAA NFT is being able to join their DAO to receive a number of benefits and perks that it promised to provide. WAAA has always been proud to be one of the first in the Vietnamese NFT industry to build a promising DAO with a clear operational plan.

The DAO has a built-in treasury that is very secure and will be fully operational as soon as the project starts. Here the members could vote unanimously on what and how the fund should be used, which ensures complete fairness and transparency. Furthermore, with years of experience under their belt, WAAA’s team of community builders guarantees that members will enjoy a streamlined and professional experience with their DAO.

Final assessment

WAAA has a strong team of founders and community builders along with great supporters who are veterans of the community industry. In addition, the project also has a solid foundation, experienced team members, some creative minds for the artwork and storytelling, not to mention their very positive audience perception. WAAA has the right ingredients for the recipe for success. We believe that WAAA is here to stay and can’t wait to see how much more it will thrive once the crypto winter is over.
