Cosmolands mission

1. Vision

Cosmolands is a pioneering Web3 project that redefines digital ownership by tokenizing authentic Martian land. Each plot, mapped to real coordinates using NASA data, becomes a unique Land NFT, empowering players to build, manage, and thrive in a play-to-earn (P2E) Martian ecosystem. Our mission is to create a sustainable, player-driven universe, starting with Mars and expanding to a cosmic ecosystem, Cosmoverse.

2. Phase 1: Land Minting and Base Building

2.1. Mars Capsule NFTs

• Minting: Players acquire one of 5,780 limited Mars Capsule NFTs, each representing a distinct Martian plot.
• Evolution: Capsules evolve into Land NFTs, revealing unique coordinates and traits:
  • Terrain Type: Crater (enhances water production), volcano (increases rare asset chances), canyon (boosts Mars Gold), or plain (reduces upgrade costs).
  • Water Ice Deposits: Low, medium, or high, impacting water output.
  • Mineral Richness: Rare, medium, or high, affecting food production.
  • Solar Exposure: High or low, lowering base maintenance costs.
• Purpose: Land NFTs grant verifiable ownership and access to the Cosmolands game.

2.2. Game Mechanics

• Setting: Each Land NFT is a Martian plot rendered in low-poly 3D, where players develop a base.
• Resources: Plots produce three resources every 12 hours:
  • Water: Driven by ice deposits.
  • Oxygen: Essential for base operations.
  • Food: Influenced by mineral richness.
• Collection: Players must collect resources within 24 hours of a production cycle, or they are lost, encouraging daily engagement.
• Base Management:
  • Bases consume resources daily to function.
  • Without player interaction, bases enter survival mode, producing minimal resources to stay operational but halting growth.
  • Players use resources to build and upgrade structures (e.g., water extractors, hydroponic labs), enhancing production efficiency.
• Mars Gold:
  • An in-game currency earned through building structures, upgrading, and daily logins.
  • Determines the COSMO token airdrop size and Land NFT mutation, shaped by player engagement and gameplay activity.
• Objective: Players expand their base, optimize resource output, and accumulate Mars Gold to maximize airdrop rewards and craft unique NFT visuals.

2.3. Player Benefits

• Ownership: Blockchain-verified Land NFTs ensure true digital ownership.
• Airdrop: Mars Gold translates to COSMO tokens, distributed in a fair airdrop to active players.
• NFT Mutation: Gameplay and engagement influence the Land NFT’s distinct appearance, enhancing its market value.

3. Phase 2: COSMO Token and Economy

• COSMO Token: The native token of Cosmolands, with a fixed supply to promote long-term value.
  • Deflation: A portion of COSMO used in transactions is burned, reducing circulating supply.
  • Utility: COSMO enables trading, upgrades, and in-game actions.
  • Distribution: Over half of the supply is allocated to players via airdrop, rewarding early adopters and active participants.
  • Tokenomics: Detailed tokenomics will be released as the project progresses to this phase.
• Economy: Players trade resources and NFT assets for COSMO on an internal marketplace. Transaction fees ensure creator revenue while supporting token deflation.
• Objective: Create a robust, player-driven economy where COSMO fuels growth and rewards engagement.

4. Phase 3: Explorer Integration and Earning

• Explorers: Non-LAND players who join the game to interact with Martian plots.
• Extraction Contracts: LAND owners offer contracts (e.g., “Extract water from a crater”) requiring COSMO or resources to participate.
  • Owner Earnings: Owners receive a majority of extracted resources or COSMO, ensuring the highest profits. Rare LAND traits (e.g., volcanic minerals) yield premium rewards, incentivizing strategic development.
  • Explorer Earnings: Explorers gain smaller resource shares, in-game currency (repurposed Mars Gold for crafting), or rare NFTs, with gameplay enjoyment as the primary reward. Simple missions (e.g., 2-minute extraction tasks) provide fun and accessibility.
• Motivation:
  • Owners: Maximize profits through passive resource production and high-yield contracts.
  • Explorers: Enjoy immersive Martian missions, community engagement, and modest COSMO rewards, with opportunities to craft or trade assets.
• Creator Revenue: Transaction fees from contracts and marketplace trades, alongside potential brand partnerships, sustain project growth.

5. Phase 4: Metaverse and Cosmoverse

• Metaverse: A 3D Martian ecosystem where players visit plots, engage in community-driven missions, and trade assets. LAND traits (e.g., mineral richness) enhance mission rewards.
• Cosmoverse: Expansion to tokenize other celestial bodies, building an interconnected Web3 ecosystem.
• Objective: Establish a scalable metaverse where LAND owners lead economically, explorers enjoy dynamic gameplay, and COSMO drives a deflationary economy.

6. Creator Benefits

• LAND Sales: Revenue from initial NFT minting.
• Marketplace Fees: A percentage of transactions supports development, with a portion burned to enhance COSMO value.
• Partnerships: Collaborations with brands for exclusive content or missions.
• Token Reserve: A portion of COSMO held for project growth, appreciating with deflation.

7. Why Cosmolands?

• Authentic Ownership: LAND NFTs tied to real Martian coordinates.
• Deflationary Economy: COSMO’s burning mechanism promotes value growth.
• Inclusive Gameplay: Owners maximize profits, while explorers enjoy accessible, rewarding experiences.
• Cosmic Vision: From Mars to Cosmoverse, Cosmolands pioneers the future of Web3.

8. Conclusion

Cosmolands merges real-world science with Web3 innovation, offering players a chance to own and shape Mars. Through phased development—minting, base building, economic expansion, and metaverse integration—we aim to create a sustainable, player-driven ecosystem.
