Tags: Nft, Metaverse

At 10:00 (UTC), December 31th, the AMA live session Dialogue with Zach Lopez — “BetaMars, the New Home of Mankind” jointly organized by the HotBit community and BetaMars was held in the HotBit community on time. During the live event, Zach Lopez, BetaMars CTO, answered users’ questions about BetaMars project.

Here’s the live review.

1. Could you please introduce yourself and BetaMars?

Zach：Thank you. Hello everyone, I’m Zach Lopez, Chief Technology Officer (CTO) of BetaMars. I’m very excited to participate in this live event.

BetaMars is a metaverse project designed by global metaverse enthusiasts. Our team members come from all over the world but have a common dream: to build a highly decentralized, free and open parallel world. We hope all participants can build a common dream homeland in BetaMars.

For our common dream, we created BetaMars.

On the core of “human nature” , we developed various gameplay mechanisms in BetaMars design. Lords and Miners are main builders of the BetaMars world. Players can activate Lords’ jurisdiction by lighting up the corresponding land with their Land NFTs and Miners’ jurisdiction by using Ticket NFTs to enter the BetaMars world.

In BetaMars 1.0, Lords and Miners make strategies to win production materials and formulate the world’s rules and regulations. In later 2.0 and more versions, they will explore to establish the world’s civilization. The BetaMars parallel world will be finally established by all participants.

2. Could you share the inspiration for BetaMars with our community?

Zach：Revolution is actually the inspiration for BetaMars. Historically, our fates have long been in the hands of the capital. How to make decisions in front of capital and win back our rights remains an eternal problem for everyone. To solve the problem, we try to build a brand-new planet and society where we can freely make our choices. Imagine that if human society starts anew on Mars, will human beings make the same mistakes? Will humans courageously fight against capital and formulate new rules? All these questions lead us to build a BetaMars metaverse world to explore the future.

3. As you mentioned, a parallel metaverse world will be established in BetaMars 2.0 and more versions, so could you please talk about your views to metaverse?

Zach：Sure. We believe the metaverse world is the trend of future human development.

From BTC, DeFi, NFT to metaverse, we think the concept of decentralization is expanding from decentralized assets to a decentralized world, and the emergence of Metaverse makes it possible to build a highly free and decentralized world, with the currently booming encryption assets, DeFi, and NFT of great potential as its infrastructure. In the future, Metaverse will integrate business, social communication, and entertainment, bringing infinite possibilities to human civilization.

More importantly, Metaverse should be neither a stack of software and hardware nor a virtual space without emotions and orders. In BetaMars, players start to build Mars from the first land. They engage in production material distribution, class evolutions, and formulation of rules and regulations. Every player in BetaMars becomes the real builder and master of metaverse.

4. What’s your strength compared with others metaverse game projects?

Zach：First, in my opinion, the main drawback of current metaverse games lies in strong financial attributes in the booming metaverse game market. At the same time, most metaverse games put their emphasis on P2E and mining, making games less funny. The game is no longer a game but a financial product, which seriously hinders the sustainable development of metaverse.

We believe a metaverse game can inspire players to think and create. The progress of human society is complicated and interesting. Therefore, in the game design, we focus on experiencing the evolution of human history on Mars, participating in the construction of society and formulating rules, which is also our strength. In BataMars, players make strategies to gain rewards and establish world rules. At the same time, in the design of BetaMars, we replicate the obscure humanity and vivid story scenes in reality, providing players an immersive experience in exploring BetaMars. All these are currently not available in most metaverse game projects on the market.

5. Could you briefly introduce the gameplay mechanism of BetaMars?

Zach：Based on contradictions and conflicts in historical development of human beings, we have developed three gameplay mechanisms: Exploitation, Tax, and Revolution. Revolution is the core gameplay mechanism of BetaMars 1.0. Through continuous Great Revolutions and Small Revolutions, the original class system will be changed. Lords and Miners, Lords and Lords, and Miners and Miners will establish complex cooperative and gambling relationships, making the development of BetaMars 1.0 more complicated and changeable.

In BetaMars, each gameplay stimulates players to think and create the world ecology. Conflicts between Miners and Miners, Miners and Lords, and Lords and Lords become sharper and sharper, which also bring more opportunities for cooperation. Complex and intertwined interests inspire players to make more strategies in the game. As time goes by and BetaMars evolves, old strategies will be replaced by new ones, which will bring more challenges and fun to BetaMars ecological participants.

6. Could you please talk about the BetaMars token model?

Zach：Yes. BetaMars constructed a dual-token model, that is, the main token EP and sub-token Revo, for the purpose of boosting the development of game ecology.

Elonpunk (EP) is the only ecological governance token in BetaMars world, which can be used in most of the scenarios in game, including land auction, buying HPs, purchasing Ticket NFTs, building future world and other features. In addition, EP can be used to pay for the transactions and services opened in the future. Currently, EP can be gained through Exploitation, Revolution and Tax gameplay mechanisms.

Revo is the incentive token embedded in BetaMars 1.0. It has its own value in the secondary market. Firstly, it is an essential way to increase Elonpunk Pool Solid and earn tax dividends. Secondly, it is vital for Miners to fight against Lords. Also, Revo is the key index to measure when revolutions will be triggered in a Land NFT. At present, Miners can only gain Revo through the Exploitation mechanism. Lords should get Revo in secondary market.

7. Could you describe BetaMars’s present status, market expansion plans, and expected development?

Zach：Well, a lot of things are going to happen! Recently we have launched some airdrop events to give back to the community, which has been loved by BetaMars supporters. Meanwhile, we have now raised $8 million in seed investment round. BetaMars has received supports from investment institutions, that’s awesome! Our project is currently in preparation and will be released in February next year as expected. We are working as hard and fast as possible to provide the chance for everyone to join our game earlier.

8. You’ve mentioned the seed investment round. And relevant information can be seen in the social media. Could you please introduce more details about it and your future cooperation plans?

Zach：Yes, we have established long-term cooperative relations with numbers of high-quality investment institutions, including Youbi Capital, Pluto Capital, Hotbit Capital. They have participated in BetaMars’s seed investment round.

We will also establish strategic cooperation with YGG and other well-known game unions to jointly promote the construction of human civilization in the BetaMars world!

3. Are you afraid someday there will be another project with more innovative technology can replace your project?

Zach：Firstly, our economic system is unique. And our users boost project’s progresses. BetaMars world relies on players to build. Technologies can never replace emotions and orders set by players themselves. We will also continuously update the technologies we used to support the world.

4. Revenue is an important aspect for all projects to survive and maintain the project/company. How have you been able to build a complete project and what is the way to generate profit/revenue of the token? What is the income model?

Zach：Firstly, it is our pleasure to have HOT DAO, Pluto Capital, Youbi Capital and Cryptos in our seed investment round currently. In BetaMars world, user’s income depends on their choices. Our project is decentralized, which means the process of the world will be not controlled by us. Everyone who participate in building BetaMars world will gain rewards.
