Reinventing Purpose
Welcome to the Community’s First Newsletter Issue!
Crypto markets are moving at breakneck speed. Sometimes it feels like doing everything is all it takes just to keep up.
With the hurried pace of life that is emerging post-Covid, there comes the added responsibility of guarding your time and energy.
Shibaken Finance recognizes that you have a choice. You needn’t invest in the development of our community. But you choose to do so.
Recent polling uncovered that the vast majority of Shibaken Finance holders are interested in long-term value plays. This is extraordinary, considering the incredible volatility of the micro-token space. Nonetheless, we’re excited to see that our message of sustainability is reaching our desired audience.
Another message that is coming through loud and clear is that education and gamification are key points of interest for the community.
Presently, development is underway on our staking and yield farming platform. Together with a reward token, and access to three blockchains (ETH, MATIC, BSC), we will at last have the infrastructure required to begin guiding the community into our deeper development strategy — namely, local token economies for sustainable community development. That strategy requires us to articulate a more fulsome understanding of markets in general, and specifically in these market sectors: food security, energy security, and water security.
Taking our cues from the community, we are combining your requests for content and leadership in these areas: education, gamification, sustainability and community development.
We are excited for this opportunity and are already taking aim at these new targets with the development and re-fresh of our online brand and social identity.
Built on a strong foundation of storytelling, our token ecosystem will begin taking on a new character in the coming months. We’re talking — game design.
Beginning with a strong new mythology and supportive language for positive transformation, the component parts we describe in our token ecosystem (see our Medium article for more information) will all begin to come forward to play key roles — with associated “character” traits; requiring development over time.
Some components will be symbolic, representing artifacts. Others will take on personalities as Avatars and carry with them functional value — and utility.
All of this development will occur inside an immersive gaming environment that rewards “players” — community members — to do what they are already doing! Learning, building and growing together.
We realize this is an ambitious goal, but with a market cap of only five million dollars at present, we take the challenge of the winning in crypto, seriously. We have a lot of room to grow — and with 6000 members holding our token — we are grateful for each one of you who continues to invest in us. We consider your time, and your consistent presence as symbols of faith in our shared potential.
We are aiming to build better. And to go from a Meme to a Movement.
In Q4, we are building our community’s software platform that will enable us to buy, and hold and sell a total of 5 tokens across 3 blockchains. In Q1, we will continue development of a swap platform we are calling “Forge” enabling the adoption of distressed and abandoned token projects — repurposing stranded assets — and growing our community network by the numbers.
In Q4 and ongoing through Q1 and beyond, our brand identity will continue to evolve with a growing mythology; adding credibility to our brand and a long-term vision for growth, education, and entertainment. Expect us to introduce new opportunities — like a member driven site for individuals to design, promote and sell course work.
The community platform will be the preferred way to drive engagement on our network. Members retain complete ownership of their content — we provide the back-end support. This model provides the perfect example for us to demonstrate our interest in providing support and value to community members — while enabling everyone to remain adaptable; open to regular media channels and platforms across the internet.
We aren’t shy about our ambitions to change the way business, finance and community development take place. And we aren’t afraid of inviting you into the process either. After all — our stated aims to complete a corporate governance structure includes the formation of a DAO. Openness and accountability is in our DNA! To go even further, we want, need, and desire your compassionate interest in the things that matter to us.
Thank you for continued support and consideration!
The Shibaken Leadership Team
