Gm everyone! I’m Rev, co-founder & growth lead @ Atlantis World. We’re super excited about the potential of our collab with DXdao community and core contributors!
Side note
I’ve met Tammy (@tammy) first time @ EthCC in Paris, and since then we’ve been in touch, discussing possibilities of Atlantis World <> DXdao collab. Later on, together with my co-founder CJ, we’ve met other DXdao rockstars @ DAOist event and ETH Lisbon Hackathon. We had some fantastic conversations, and now we’d love to bring forward a long-term, positive-sum partnership proposal between Atlantis World <> DXdao.
Introduction
Atlantis World is building the Web3 social metaverse. We’re connecting social with Web3 (NFTs, DeFi + DAOs) and gaming inside of a lightweight virtual world that’s accessible to everybody.
We believe that existing metaverses set a high-cost barrier to entry and a hardware standard that doesn’t match up with global readiness due to a focus on 3d/immersive experience. We’re building Atlantis as a lightweight, 2d pixel metaverse that will run on any device in the web browser, from anywhere in the world!
We’re curating a fully fledged crypto economy of the metaverse starting with game experiences that plug into Web3 applications. You can even visit digital banks and unlock billions of dollars in liquidity for anything from savings accounts to borrowing, or freely exchange money and trade anything from financial instruments to NFT wearables and other digital goods / collectibles such as land.
We’ll build token gated cities for your favorite communities, starting with the founding partners of the Atlantis World ecosystem… Here, communities will be able to host virtual events powered by spatial video/audio calling, as well as NFT treasure hunts, voting in DAOs and using other Web3 applications. We’re also working hard to enable customizability features as well as building SDKs so that leading creators and developers can improve Atlantis World as a global collective. We’re building the user owned metaverse, so want to enable that as soon as possible.
We’re also working toward a planet positive future in collaboration with our users and community… which is why we’re planting a biodiverse, carbon capturing virtual forest inside of Atlantis.
Collab scope
We can add value to the DXdao ecosystem in a number of ways, from integrating DXdao products inside of Atlantis to building token-gated meta-city for DXdao community.
- Integrating Swapr, Carrot, DXvote, and Omen within Atlantis World so that users can access multiple DXdao products in a gamified way.
- Building a fully Web3-enabled token gated city for the DXdao community with NFTs, video calling, DeFi + in-game DAO voting! The city will be map sized and totally personalized with DXdao brand styling, perfect for hosting virtual events, NFT treasure hunts, voting in DAOs and other fun stuff.
- Creating MMORPG-style Learn2Earn (incentivized learning) quests to onboard users into DXdao + the wider DeFi ecosystem.
- Enabling network effects by rolling out gamified DXdao products in Atlantis City and cities of other DeFi communities such as Yearn or Balancer to onboard more users who are already Web3 native.
- Adding a portal to multiple DXdao products, a DXdao booth (where users can learn more with social links like Discord) and the DXdao building to Atlantis City.
- Airdropping token gated city + the DXdao products’ buildings/clubhouses to the DXdao community.
- DXdao wearables and swag inside of Atlantis World.
- DXdao core contributors co-working space (token-gated with NFT/POAP/social token etc)
- Other suggestions from the DXdao community.

Other Information
We’re currently building hard on a completely new version of Atlantis which we’re planning to ship before EOY. On our first prototype / demo version (https://demo.atlantis.world) we currently have over 2k active users, for the new version we have over 5.4k early access sign ups.
We’re still fully bootstrapped, managing to scale our team to 7 full time core contributors on the back of grants, collabs + our own capital. So, the support of the DXdao ecosystem would be huge to us in helping us build the user owned metaverse for public good. In terms of user ownership, we want to enable that ASAP, though we’re exploring alternative methods vs launching a token as it stands right now.
Our current ecosystem partners have social media communities of 2.4M+ users that will be invited to beta test Atlantis and become our early adopters. Joint marketing is a core part of our GTM and we’re onboarding new partners at an unprecedented rate.
We also plan to enable network effects for all parties involved, by incentivising and encouraging different partner communities to try each other’s products inside of Atlantis. As well as this, we’ll also target non crypto natives with interactive learning for DeFi and other Web3 building blocks like DAOs, blockchain games and blockchain wallets, even creating core Web3 onboarding and wallet creation experience.
We also have super active 5k+ Discord users, with 700+ mobilising to make a contribution to our GR11 grant (when we had 1.4k community members).
