The Tacians spend their time almost entirely on playing games. The beauty about TaciVerse, is that all Tacians are fully active all the time, regardless of user behavior in the physical world. Each Tacian is fully autonomous. It continuously plays and interactswith other Tacians - even when its master is logged out. | $250K | Pre-Seed | Nov 01, 2021 | | | Snook | Snook is an online, multiplayer, Snake-like IO game… [gulp…I mean… comparing it to the old Nokia Snake is like comparing Bruce Banner to the Hulk.] It is a kill-or-be-killed, adrenaline-charged, multiplayer game that is pioneering NFT game characters. That means players’ performance directly affects the NFT face value (more about that below).Unlike some play-to-earn NFT-gamified/NFT-infused games, in Snook the players' in-game character IS an NFT, with your skill and gameplay achievements immutably recorded on chain. This snook-NFT, your game character, as long as it does not die, can be played in future games. It also retains value as a digital asset and collectible on the secondary market.Snook is the first game in a new NFT crypto-space – one that determines the face-value and affects the market value of NFTs through measurement of skilled "work" invested in their creation and development. It's a crypto meritocracy and similar to that thing your parents used to say: 'if you work hard and apply yourself, you'll reap the rewards'… This merger between a relatively new, decentralized, trust-agnostic, and immutable economic paradigm and one of humanity’s most popular pass-time - gaming - is surprisingly natural and seamless. Players spend time playing. They develop skills with patience and persistence. Until today, their efforts were measured in their score, ranking and/or character evolution. Rewards were emotional and social. It felt good, and you got "street cred". However, like all economies, if one invests work/effort/energy in something, it should be possible to exchange the "fruits" of that labor with other things that also store value. Those could be money (e.g., Fiat or FT/cryptocurrencies), commodities (which are still fungible, i.e., they are the same and replacing one with another does not affect its value), or non-fungible items (e.g., NFTs). Which leads us to Snook – a game that allows players to monetize their performance and capture their unique gaming achievements in their NFTs. Moreover, Snook makes certain achievements especially difficult to realize, allowing exceptional players to monetize their skill. As such, Snook is a steppingstone towards: As such, Snook is a steppingstone towards: - Curtailing inflation in the NFT market by providing a value metric that is not only based on buzz and speculation. - Bringing the cryptocurrency and blockchain economy and ecosystem closer to mainstream economy and day-to-day transactions - Realizing a working model for capturing the value of skill and performanceWhitepaper: https://whitepaper.snook.gg/ | $3.4M | Pre-Seed | Sep 01, 2020 | | 2 of 2 investments shown. ## Co-investors - [MVST:MG](https://shizune.co/investors/profile/mvst-mg) — VC Fund, 2 deals together - [6th Man Ventures](https://shizune.co/investors/profile/6th-man-ventures) — VC Fund, 1 deal together - [Brilliance Ventures](https://shizune.co/investors/profile/brilliance-ventures) — VC Fund, 1 deal together - [DAO Maker](https://shizune.co/investors/profile/dao-maker) — VC Fund, 1 deal together - [Dokia Capital](https://shizune.co/investors/profile/dokia-capital) — VC Fund, 1 deal together - [Legion Ventures](https://shizune.co/investors/profile/legion-ventures) — VC Fund, 1 deal together ## About Cointelligence VC Fund 1 contacts available at Cointelligence. | Name | Title | Profile | | --- | --- | --- | | On Yavin | Chief executive officer | https://shizune.co/investors/profile/on-yavin | ## Similar investors ### Similar industry - [Coinbase Ventures](https://shizune.co/investors/profile/coinbase-ventures) — VC Fund - [Animoca Brands](https://shizune.co/investors/profile/animoca-brands-corporation) — VC Fund - [Shima Capital](https://shizune.co/investors/profile/shima-capital) — VC Fund ### Similar stage - [Antler](https://shizune.co/investors/profile/antler-be9c) — VC Fund - [Right Side Capital Management](https://shizune.co/investors/profile/right-side-capital-management) — VC Fund - [Everywhere Ventures](https://shizune.co/investors/profile/everywhere-ventures) — VC Fund ### Similar country - [ENISA](https://shizune.co/investors/profile/enisa-2) — VC Fund - [Inveready](https://shizune.co/investors/profile/inveready-technology-investment-group) — VC Fund - [Angels Capital](https://shizune.co/investors/profile/angels-capital) — VC Fund ## Featured in investor lists - [Blockchain Angel Investors in Spain](https://shizune.co/investors/blockchain-angel-investors-spain) - [Gaming Angel Investors in Spain](https://shizune.co/investors/gaming-angel-investors-spain) - [Web3 Angel Investors in Spain](https://shizune.co/investors/web3-angel-investors-spain) - [Blockchain Investors in Spain](https://shizune.co/investors/blockchain-investors-spain) ## FAQ ### What does On Yavin invest in?
