Meta #33 - Phases of MetaGame
Seed minting, new onboarding, new landing, new phases, new tactics, new new new!
⛓️ Chainlog
An all new onboarding system. As mentioned already, we’re no longer just letting everybody in. No more intro quests either - sign up through here instead.
More people proceed not to sell us any Seeds? Damn it y’all.
Continued upgrading Discord: Reordered & deleted channels. Updated descriptions & added emojis. Added a new channel: #🚨issues-n-ideas.
A few people came to present their projects to the community & they were pretty cool - you should have been there 😜
We continued tying up the wiki into something more coherent & prettier to look at. A new landing page merging “intro” & all 3 types coming. Copy below.
Submitted a $5k proposal to the MetaCartel 🤞
The Stoa kindly hosted my MG talk and it was awesome. Never met such an engaged audience - spoke for 10 minutes then answered questions for another 45.
Luxumbra moves up to Golden Fam 😱
A few more people lose their memberships, and Tweetious becomes the first one to receive the Protected Player role - obtained by hodling 20+ Seeds.
Finalized all we needed to know about the new balancer smart pool thanks to mZ. Launch imminent; next Seed minting t-3 days.
As requested through the last newsletter’s poll, the long term vision of MetaGame has been laid out in the new Phases of MetaGame. 👇
Note
Check your Seed stats! If you’re not happy, join us tomorrow or post in the #🚨issues-n-ideas channel. 🙂
The New Intro & Phases Below 👇
A Massive Online Coordination Game
Abstract
“Metagame is any approach to a game that transcends or operates outside of the prescribed rules of the game, uses external factors to affect the game, or goes beyond the supposed limits or environment set by the game.” - From Wiki
Players of MetaGame are on a quest to change the way people coordinate around solving problems & creating value.
The quest stretches from fixing the onboarding to the Ethereum space
by symmetrifying information & composing the basic socio-economic infrastructure, to grappling with actual problems.
- You know, the opposite of the first crypto-world problems.
But, it all starts with Seeds...
Seed Phase
The main goal of Seed phase is to build a hub for anyone interested in decentralized
organizations & applications.
Guides & portals to anything one might need to build them & a community of people to support them.
We’re building a Decentralized Factory for baking the building blocks we are going to use to compose the bigger picture.
The Bigger Picture
The long term goal of MetaGame is to build an alternative society; a global society focused around solving problem - not squeezing the world for profit.
We are building the future we want to live in:
A more collaborative, transparent & decentralized future.
A future in which human progress isn't accelerating its destruction.
So, Who is it for?
Who is it NOT for?
Phases of MetaGame
Phase I: Seed
Elon Musk: We spotted what appears to be an octopus at the edge of the Solar System. It looks like a baby but it's half the size of moon and it appears to be heading our way. Just 2020 things 🤷♂️
Weeks later...
NASA: This morning we’ve received a distress signal. After mocking our information technologies, she seemed to have started sobbing; claiming to be lost and dying of thirst.
The main goal of Phase I is to build a hub for anyone interested in decentralized organizations & applications. A library of guides & portals to anything one might need to build them & a community of people to support them.
The meme of this phase is A Decentralized Factory; a collective of decentralized teams, churning out the building blocks we’re going to use to build a decentralized world.
Goals:
Build a community of people strongly aligned with the MetaManifesto.
Set up the basic socio-economic infrastructure.
Assemble the initial resource base.
Phase II: Growth
Gently, she descended into the Atlantic Ocean. We were worried about the oceanic life, but she assured us she only feeds on h2o & co2 - she doesn’t stop blowing our minds. First, her decentralized technologies, and now this? She might turn out more useful than we thought.
Proven ourselves worthy; Seeds grow into Trees & we summon The Great Flood.
A wave of capital flows into MetaGame and it allows us to pay even more people to do awesome things - like grappling with the real-world issues.
So we zoom out of crypto and start onboarding people from other high-tech, but also ecological & philanthropical communities; MetaGame starts looking more like a federation of guilds & alliances than one single community.
The meme is A Web of Opportunity; there is no lack of funding nor a lack of problems to solve. Anyone is able to just jump in, start solving problems & earning an income.
Goals:
Summon The Great Flood.
Spread tentacles into all high-leverage technologies.
Start solving problems outside of crypto.
Phase III: Equilibrium
It’s been years since we spotted her drifting towards us. Her technologies helped us overcome coordination failures & her presence here turned out greatly beneficial for our ecosystems. She’s all huge & covered in greenery now; looking more like a breathing landmass than an octopus.
MetaGame now really is a massive online coordination game. By now, we have onboarder players & guilds offering anything one might need to live a rich & meaningful life through MetaGame. Now, there’s anything from co-working & co-living arrangements to ecovillages, being offered & even built through MetaGame.
As the name suggests, MetaGame is no longer focused on rapid growth but sustainable growth in the state of equilibrium. It is able to thrive & grow without any additional injections of speculative capital.
The meme of this phase is A Web of Life - to support life as a whole.
Goals:
Support a mass of people in doing something meaningful & making a living.
Onboard co-working/co-living spaces as well as off-the-grid farms & eco-villages.
Get deep into ecological & philanthropic initiatives.
Onwards! 🐙
