Koi Metaverse

Project Overview

Overview​

Introduction​

Koi Metaverse aims to unlock the next-gen GameFi metaverse economies and it is building the digital collectibles platform for virtual GameFi NFTs. It is a fish collection blockchain game that combines token economy and NFT assets. It consists of a series of smart contracts, and all of the in-game assets belong to its players. Players can play to earn by collecting high mining power fish and growing them, creating a positive self-circulation.

If pure-bred mining fish is reproduced, you can lock it into the pictorial book to mine the governance token, and use it to participate in the other DeFi activities. Koiverse creates a variety of NFT assets in the form of fish images and aims to become the BearBrick in the blockchain GameFi space and the brand new Axie Infinity on the Polkadot network.

Team Interest​

Our team has more than 10 years of game development experience and 3 years of blockchain game development experience. The number of accumulated registered users in the previous games is over 50 million globally. The highest number of active unique users exceeded 1 million. Koi team is also experts in innovative gaming mechanisms, sidechain implementation, tokenization economics and decentralized wallet integration.

We are creating new kinds of virtual assets on Blockchain. Certainly we are the true Metaverse believers and builders who have strong motivation to unlock the Next-Gen GameFi Metaverse Economies. In Metaverse powered by Blockchain, we have seen the following core disruptive innovations:

  • Blockchain infrastructure leads to the property rights revolution. With blockchain, we can imagine a world in which contracts are embedded in digital code and stored in transparent, shared databases so that everyone could have the real ownership of properties.
  • Non-Fungible Token (NFT) changes the types and rules of games. NFT is a new form of unique digital asset designed to show someone has ownership of a unique virtual asset. It will become a new trend of virtual assets for creating, trading and collecting.
  • Tokenization and crypto creates brand-new business models. Crypto unlocks new rules of business models in game, like the concept of Play-to-Earn (P2E) which created new types of jobs and professions in digital Metaverse economies.

NFT Assets​

Fish NFT

  • Each fish is composed of 14 genetic components: shape, color, pattern, eyes, mouth, pectoral fin, dorsal fin, caudal fin, decorations, invisible components, and breeding sequence.
  • The highest mining power of the fish is determined by the sum of each part’s mining power, gear buff, and the cultivation level.
  • When certain fish genes match, a mining power bonus and pictorial books will be activated.

Fist Tank NFT

  • The fish can grow up in fish tanks. The cultivation time cycles are 10 days, 30 days, and 90 days, which respectively come with a maximum 30%, 120%, and 400% mining power increase.
  • Each fish tank may have unique features and different capacities.
  • Fish tanks and fish cannot be sold during the lock period.
  • In the cultivation time, the fish cannot engage in mining or breeding.

Game Functions​

Fish Breeding

  • The only way gamers can mint new fish NFT assets is to breed fish. The cost of the very first breeding is determined by the average mining power P of the parent fish and the average ecological mining power AP. The cost F=K*P/AP, tentatively K = 500.
  • The progeny genes are inherited from the parent fish genes, and each parent has a 50% chance to propagate its genes.
  • The scarcity of the fish gene is classified as normal, scarce, epic, and legendary. The scarce, epic, and legendary genes, respectively, have a 50%, 35%, and 25% chance to be inherited. There is a 1% chance to increase the gene scarcity level, or the genes will mutate into random and normal genes.

Fish Mining

  • All fish with mining power can obtain reward tokens every day proportionately. The amount of reward token available to mine per day (M) is related to (F) the total sum of the fish (mining power>0) participating in mining. M=K*F^0.9，K as a constant, tentatively K=50.
  • Only the fish that are not being sold, bred, or locked by pictorial books can participate in mining.
  • Every time a fish participates in mining, it loses 4% of the mining power until it reaches 0.

Pictorial Book Mining

  • A gamer can activate a pictorial book when acquiring some pure-bred fish with the built-in suites.
  • You can start mining reward tokens if you lock the right fish into the pictorial book. The locked fish must have full mining capacity.
  • There are 4 levels to each fish’s pictorial book: 0, 10, 30, and 90 growing up days in fish tanks.
  • When level 2, level 3 or level 4 fish are locked, the system automatically releases the low-level fish previously locked. You can only lock one fish, and you can double your points after collecting all level 4 fish, in all the colors, with the same suit.
  • The mined reward tokens are distributed according to the points and settled once a day. At the same time, the mining power is reduced by 4%. If the mining power is 0, then no more mining can be done.

Front End​

Ecosystem Fit​

Existing GameFi NFT projects mainly focus on the public chains, games and collectible publishing, Marketplace, etc. Popular projects working in this segment include Axie Infinity (NFT game), Chiliz (sports-oriented underlying public chain), Flow (general NFT issuance public chain), and Opensea (general marketplace). We will add more game functions than Axie Infinity and build on the Substrate framework. We also can collaborate with native Polkadot NFT marketplace RMRK and NFTMart.

  • Genesis Collection: Koi NFTs Genesis Collection Offering — Phase 1: Newborn Genesis Collection is an effective way to start a project and have public awareness.
  • GameFi Communities: Koi Metaverse will collaborate with game P2E communities, including Yield Guild Games (YGG), A16, etc. to complete users acquisition and users growth.

Future Plans

Our project plans to become a parachain for the Polkadot network, which provides benefits from shared security and communications (XCMP). We will launch our game application Koi Metaverse first to complete the first adoption and then open our infrastructure layer Koi Network to support more game Dapps. The Koi Network will support marketplace, NFT DeFi, GameFi Hub and Cross-chain Gateway, etc.
