Dear Bloctopians,

Introducing the first project on Blocto launchpad — Starly!

Starly is a launchpad and marketplace for gamified NFT collections. It offers content creators an end-to-end solution to launch and sell their own gamified NFT collections to fans and followers. Fans can own, trade and sell these NFTs to bring their relationships with the creators to the next level, to represent interests and values they stand for and to turn it all into a and exciting and enjoyable experience.

Starly brings in new ideas, including collector score and gamified NFT collecting to differentiate with other NFT platforms, which in turn brought Starly $1M+ trading volume and 2,000+ collectors in the first 100 days after launch. Additionally, to empower and further build the active and robust Starly community, Starly is launching $STARLY as a centerpiece of the Starly ecosystem to benefit creators, collectors, and token holders.

If you are interested in participating in the Starly IDO, please see the details here.

Project Highlights:

1. Starly recently closed its pre-IDO funding round with $6.125 million raised from numerous global investors. The round was led by Spartan Group, and includes some of the most notable investors such as Dapper Labs and Animoca Brands. Blocto has also invested in this round.
2. Starly has launched 14 breathtaking collections in collaboration with multiple artists, treasured by 2,000 active collectors and generating 1 million in sales.

Team

Starly was created by an experienced team who founded the social network — F3 with 30 million registered users and Ask.fm with 150 million registered users. The Starly team now consists of 27 highly experienced professionals.

Project intro

Take Collecting NFT to the next level.

Starly brings value to collecting NFTs by organizing them in sealed packs with three different rarity classes — providing an engaging user experience. In addition, creators on Starly will reward top collectors with unique and personal prizes that can be claimed by completing a collection. Each collection comes in 21 cards — 11 commons, 6 rares, and 4 legendaries, the perfect formula for an ultimate collecting game.

Collectors buy and sell their NFTs on the marketplace to complete the entire set. The creator rewards top collectors for achieving certain collecting milestones along the way. This engagement is a prime driver for bringing their relationship to a new level.

In addition, the collector score feature makes collecting on Starly even more exciting, adding an element of a treasure hunt — rewarding the most persistent collectors.

Bridging the Celebrities and NFT world

Starly believes celebrities are critical for building “bridges” between the NFT technology and the end-consumer. Many Celebrities have already entered the NFT space, including Snoop Dogg, Justin Biber, Jay Chou…, but more are yet to join. This leads to a question — how will their collection diffrenciate from the others?

The idea behind Starly’s Digital Artist Partnership is to create a roster of digital artists who are ready to skyrocket their careers by creating a joint collection with the celebrities. The collaborating artist will be selected by the celebrities or their management team, based on the requirements for the collection.

The experienced team bring mechanics into the NFT world

Starly saw that NFT spaces were evolving and found a room for their previous experience. They wanted to bring social media mechanics along with other experiences the team had to the table.

People have built connections and micro-communities on Instagram, Facebook, Twitter… etc. And it is time to enable them to bring those relationships to the next level.

NFTs are moving towards mass adoption, and every Creator with a devoted community will profit from that on many different levels. They also give fans a unique opportunity to show their appreciation and own a piece of their idols.

There is still quite much educational work to do, but mass adoption of NFTs is just around the corner, and with the experienced team, we can expect there will be something new in the NFT world.
