Project Vinland
A DeFi first metaverse

2.
Current DeFi market
● Financial primitives reaching product market fit
● Real user numbers <5M
● Bad onboarding education, how-to guides - Rabbithole solves part of this
● Biggest disconnect with no-coiners - “Why do I need AAVE, I already have a
bank account?”
Problem still remains of natural retention vs paid out incentives
● Interesting demand-supply problem can be solved via metaverse, games

3.
● NFTs - the red pill to onboard masses into crypto-verse
● Exclusivity/flex factor makes interesting ways to display your art e.g. Zora,
Gallery
● But we haven't seen ideas to replicate real world gallery curation/exclusivity in
a 3D metaverse space.
● Metaverse space also has interesting advertising opportunities with protocols

Motivation
● Team behind Vinland has solid experience in scaling DeFi with Polygon, API3
● Our vision always was DeFiForAll - not possible thru present experiences
● Like the anime - we see DeFi as Vinland (a land having infinite opportunities)

Vinland - our vision
● Onchain DeFi first metaverse - with 3D avenues for prominent protocols
● Making DeFi more intuitive, easy to access also a 3D space will help users
appreciate these primitives (especially for no-coiners)
● In -game quests to build your XP score to access premium real estate like in-
game Times Square.

State share in blockchain games
We have 2 realms in Vinland
● Exploration realm (learn to earn) - a XP driven limitless realm (multiplayer) to
interact with top protocols, NFTs. Also can play multiple casual games to get
more XP. Buy real estate and build protocol buildings here for
advertisements.

State share in blockchain games
We have 2 realms in Vinland
● Battle realm - players will have to put in some tokens(either stablecoins or
$Vin) as the entry fee and winner takes all model.
PHASE 2

Competitor Landscape and Opportunity
-> Coinbase earn generates 60M annual revenue via protocol partnerships (5M)
-> RabbitHole like learn to earn concepts will grow
-> More interesting metaverse approach allows state share between games and
DeFi smart contracts alike.
