According to Atem Network, the fund will be used to build a multichain web3 social platform combining decentralized community and social trades. On the platform, group spaces can be initiated based on tokens and NFTs (both classified as crypto assets) allowing users to chat, trade and govern. This will create a community exclusively for crypto and NFT owners with strong mutual interests. Additionally, the team is working on sketching a user portrait layer based on on-chain data to serve different Dapp developers, including group spaces and channel recommendations in Atem. Unlike web2, all values created in this web3 community will be given back to the community members as rewards. Atem’s long-term goal is to make full use of on-chain data to serve different Dapp developers and become the go-to one stop solution for the social infrastructure of web3.
