Meet the buddies of GenShards 😍
#BUIDLEcosystem ⚒
Over the past few months, the team at GS has been focusing on #BUIDLing round the clock, in its goal to build a completely new world of financial NFTs. The community support has been fantastic ! 😍
We started off with a simple belief that NFTs could do much more than be just collectibles — and that is what we are working towards. To this effect, we are architecting an entire ecosystem centred around financial NFTs, through certain key partnerships with some amazing, innovative teams in the DeFi / NFT space. 👥
Over the past few months, we have been announcing new collaborations and partnerships consistently — we understand that it may get a bit overwhelming to keep track of the projects that are working with GS to make it better each day, and vice versa.
Not to worry, we have summarized the information for you 😉
The key collaborators in the GS Ecosystem include:
Oracles 💎
Paralink network is a source of secure and reliable price feeds and for importing real world data from official and 3rd party sources. Paralink entropy as a service inherently provides high quality hardware based randomness to users.
Kylin Network helps GS drive oracle scripting, data analytics, and data feeding parameters with respect to Genesis Shards’ upcoming exchange, utilizing their novel GenSwap architecture.
Bluzelle provides access to its scalable and interoperable decentralized DB for off-chain data storage and to its data oracle services. Bluzelle’s data oracle services combine its database, hundreds of validators, and data feeds, with statistical analysis, to produce a “blended value” data price that adds enormous value to DeFi products
DIA will provide access to its scalable and validated data feeds. DeFi projects on Genpad can use DIA’s trustable and scalable data feeds to build reliable products and avoid exploitation and manipulation.
Infrastructure 🏭
Polygon (Matic) enables the advantages of high speed and low fee transactions for preIDO launches on GenShards. Polygon projects get access to Genesis preIDO liquidity and the ecosystem of strategic partners.
ArGo will provide decentralised storage and hosting solutions to GenShards
Raze Network would enable privacy protection for cross-chain transactions occurring on GenShards. The collaboration also enables access to the key utilities of Raze’s minting, redeeming, and transferring functions
Darwinia — Projects on Genesis Shards can implement Darwinia’s cross-chain bridge network for their platforms. Its applications range across diverse fields such as DeFi, Trading, NFTs & Gaming
Polkafoundry will collaborate with GS to help bring a much wider range of DeFi projects building on Polkadot, into the Genesis ecosystem and to provide them with Pre-IDO liquidity solutions
Binance Smart Chain — Projects building on BSC will be able to launch on Genpad. This collaboration enables a lower cost option to participate in preIDOs, making the PreIDO NFT sale much more equitable.
NFTs 🃏
dART — It will provide access to insurance for the Gen Ticket NFTs and for any future NFT DeFi option baskets from GS. GenShards and dART are exploring synergies between NFT projects on both ecosystems
Unic.ly — Genpad projects can collaborate with Unic.ly to fractionalize GenTicket NFTs. Investors can buy ‘fractions’ of the GenTicket — this will create a liquid “derivative” market for PreIDO tokens, increasing accessibility for all.
BaconDao — GS is exploring synergies with this next-Gen NFT launchpad, including collaborations with its NFT-centric community
Mozik — GS will explore bringing DeFi NFT options to this novel music NFT platform
DeFi 💸
UniLend — PreIDO projects on Genpad and later GS token holders will have access to Unilend’s lending and flash loan features
Unreal Finance — GS is looking to bring the fixed-interest lending and borrowing features of this unrealized yields platform to its users
MoMa Finance — Genpad ecosystem projects will have access to Moma’s smart contract factory for the production and management of Launch Pools and Lending Pools
TotemFi — Projects in the Genpad pre-IDO ecosystem are able to use TotemFi’s prediction platform for a wider audience reach. They will also be able to open stake pools on TotemFi.
Web 3.0 🕸
reBaked — PreIDO projects on GS will be able to utilize reBaked to design, launch, and scale projects easily in the web 3.0 “Ownership Economy”
DappList — GS preIDO projects will be able to tap into the necessary network and community synergies in the web3 ecosystem, alongside getting dev and investment support
Parami Protocol — GS projects will be able to tap into the tokenized advertising protocol for web 3.0 (AD 3.0) to help scale faster
