INTRODUCTORY QUESTIONS
Asian community : Can you briefly describe Pandora?
Hessel StepHunt : I’m Hessel and I currently work as CMO at http://StepHunt.com
it’s a pleasure for me to be here with you this evening. As for my history with cryptos, it all started as a game in the late 2016 when I bought my first ETH as an investor, and from that moment my life changed completely. I started to attend events in my home country, Finland, and then I moved to many countries such as UAE, USA, and Singapore (where I’m based now) building a strong network with crypto communities. Then this great opportunity came out of nowhere and since November 2021 I decided to start working for StepHunt, and here I am today talking with you guys at our first AMA.
Asian community : What is Stephunt and tell us about your tokenomics?
Hessel StepHunt : Sure! StepHunt is a Pokèmon Go-style Web3 GameFi + SocialFi App which aims to revolutionize the Play-to-Earn landscape. The project is built around three simple concepts: — 🦶 Step: walk, jog and run to earn STEP tokens. — 🔍 Hunt: hunt and catch HUNT tokens spread across the world. — 🤗 Socialize: play and connect with friends to receive boosts and increase your level. Mixing a perfect blend of tools like NFTs (Not Fungible Tokens), AR (Augmented reality), GPS (Global Positioning System) and a nice UI (User Interface) with Social Media integrations, will make possible the StepHunt’s aim of creating a strong community which shares the same goal and interests while being rewarded during the journey.
Asian community : How does StepHunt plan to be different from your competitors? Which are the unique features that StepHunt have ?
Hessel StepHunt :
Unlike many other projects already in the ecosystem, ours aims to be the future point of reference in both the Game-fi and Social-fi ecosystems.
Inspired by PokemonGo playstyle, StepHunt offers a way more wide GameFi experience, the whole Play-to-Earn mechanism is built around the Augmented Reality (AR), so it won’t be limited to rewards for running and walking, but will give users the possibility of hunting Mystery Box and HUNT tokens effortlessly, just by using their phone camera.
Playes will have their own personal Avatar and its level which represents the cumulative experience of a player in the StepHunt ecosystem.
Furthermore, in StepHunt there will be 2 different types of NFTs: 👟 Shoes and 🔎 Lens. Both will have unique attributes, which will affect the player earnings and the chances of finding HUNT tokens .
Our ultimate goal will be to create a perfect mix of gameplay possibilities in order to create a strong community powered by an even stronger ecosystem.
Asian community : Currently a lot of people are looking at NFTs, metaverse, and games. Can you tell me what advantages will you have in this field future?
Hessel StepHunt :
We aim to create an Augmented Reality Game-Fi APP game that allows users to earn money through two main actions:
- Walking, Jogging or Running
- Hunting
Two different NFTs ( 👟 Shoes and 🔎 Lens) in a virtual world combined with the AR world, managed by a sustainable tokenomics with a Social-Fi integration given by personal Avatars.
This will be possible thanks to Bluetooth 5.1, which adds improvements that considerably improve measuring distance and direction measurement, GPS Signal and a 3G/4G/5G connection.
Asian community : What are the upcoming plans of StepHunt for the next coming months/years?
Hessel StepHunt : Right now we are working on the upcoming token sale which will be conducted on Pinksale during the next week. An official date is not scheduled yet, we will announce future details in our official telegram group so be ready! We are currently in talk with several VC and we are open to any VC interested in investing in our project during this early stage. Anyways, our priority is to finalize the StepHunt app development, which is currently in an alpha stage. Our developers are working harshly to reach this goal. The Beta will be officially released during Q2 2022, allowing everyone to be a part of our strong community and start earning trough our in-game mechanics. Future plans include Mainnet launch, Coingecko and Coinmarketcap listing, which will both be accomplished during Q2 2022, followed by a strong marketing campaign which is currently ongoing. The final goal will be overtaking STEPN, in order to be the most popular Move-to-earn platform in the current ecosystem, this will be accomplished trough key partnership, multichain integration and many community events spread all around the world.
