1. they did not release news after financing, the team first polished the product, and only after the product was online, the financing news was made public, and many users came
2. participated in solana hackathon, won the first place, the same day in the discord came in 10,000 users
3. did a lot of activities to attract more users, are their own to promote the. If magic eden or other nft platform release words, attract over are nft speculators, will not really use the product
4. and early in a large number of users is not a good thing, so that is not conducive to do numerical analysis, which is important for this kind of application
5. the team decided to award the first 10,000 pairs of limited shoes to discord community members, and did a lot of activities for community members to participate and get rewards
6. early to find the blockchain KOL is not a good marketing model, they are very busy and have many projects, so it will waste a lot of time for the team, unless they have resources
7. in the user really understand the product, then go to do publicity, so web3 app may also be able to create kol
8. 10,000 pairs of shoes in the distribution of discord giveaway is very important
9. the team needs to chat with users, user participation are very high, users accompany the team to grow together
10. the Chinese team needs to be very efficient, only 4 months of time, reached: from 0 to 1 well done wallet app, nft trading market, built-in swap function, the mechanism of movement, gps signal processing, anti-cheating (AI, own training a set of engine)
11. the app is the team 24 hours on duty to make the product, calendar open 24 hours, the team of people can book any point in time
12. team is very global
13. the earliest 10,000 user portrait is what it looks like: from more underdeveloped countries, mainly for airdrop to India (80%) + Southeast Asia. The earliest internal test did not say that they would give away shoes, only that they would be given to users who met what conditions
14. after the public test only began to send nft, that time shoes 0.x sol, because do not know the development after, so many people get in very early to start selling, mainly nft speculators
15. the earliest holders are basically gone, and now the user is completely different
16. users know how to play before they slowly began not to sell, and competition between users will become stronger (with two months of transition, from undeveloped countries to relatively developed countries, in the shoes to 5 sol, not too rich country users will be difficult to buy)
17. now the first few users are mostly from Europe and the United States, South Korea, Japan
18. for the user currency is token, the asset is nft. web3 is a user co-creation of the ecology. 19.
When I started in China, the team size of a product in web2 was 300 people. web3 will not have so many people, it is more convenient, global decentralization, and high efficiency. We found a lot of great talent and partners around the world. The community will be one of the biggest recruitment channels, with a common vision and understanding.
20. web3's economic system collapses faster and doesn't give too much room for modification. That's why STEPN is taking a centralized approach to regulation. (As long as the team's values are correct, appropriate regulation is necessary for a healthy product)
21. the parameters of Mint made centralized adjustment, how to make decisions? Observe the healthy form of economic development, so that the product to the healthy side of the regulation: supply and demand, output consumption ratio, and value. If the shoes are too expensive it affects the threshold for new users to come in, but the shoes can't be too cheap, which would devalue them. Numerical adjustment how to make decisions: observe the health of the development of the economy, axie the game has been inflationary, and the team has not done anything; there should be an active way to regulate (not intervention) to make him more healthy development.
22. web3 venture, just do things directly, regardless of the three or seven, failure continues, success is the new world.
23. we see axie do a good job, indeed need to learn the essence of their products, but not just imitate
24. axie is mainly to play gold by leasing services, stepn will be how to view?
a. axie growth can not be separated from the game union, because axie the game is difficult to use, self-learning difficult. In my own experience axie, it took 3 hours. The union will squeeze the life value of the system and accelerate the aging of the system. The union is bigger and holds the fate of the product, if the modification is unfavorable, the union will take away the product
b. stepn will fight the game union, the product is made for users, not for the game union. Hope is for real users to use, change their habits, life. Bring the web2 people to the web3
c. the future to do a web3 infrastructure, to develop their own social products, behind all the real users, not soulless
d. leasing will accelerate the development and aging, which may lead to the lack of loyalty of users who come to participate in leasing
e. the function of leasing was done 1.5 months ago, has not been on, indefinitely postponed, need that can let newcomers quickly experience the product, but also allow them to contribute to the ecology
25. modify the parameters of the game, will let some people's interests are damaged, but will benefit most of the users
26. early on, we had to rely on ourselves and co-founders, when the team was two people doing everything by themselves. It was hard to recruit people at the beginning, and the early ones were small water forces.
27. because web3 is too early, completely let go of decentralization is not bad. stepn is quite typical of socialism with Chinese characteristics: web3 account + financial system + web2 product design and development. Centralized intervention, slowing down, going to make the system more healthy. Let the end Currently there are studios cheating, connected to the computer to mint shoes, there is no very strict blocking, there is a certain feasibility, the long-term discouraged. I hope the user is a ten million level. Own how to feel explore, gmt play on mint feel will also adjust, will go to do a balance.
28. user first
29. prepared a lot of macro-control
Ava: Apr. 17th AMA(Original Chinese ver.)
Jerry base 澳洲,团队来自于全球,来自于浙江大学大04级计算机本科,不断创业,早年做了一个游戏公司达到财务自由移民澳洲
Jerry is based in Australia, the team is from all over the world, from Zhejiang University, the big 04 computer undergraduate, constantly entrepreneurial, early years did a game company to reach financial freedom to immigrate to Australia
August project - September demo to participate in solana hackathon - November internal testing - now more than 1 million users, hundreds of thousands of daily activities.
the initial flow + product self-propagation ability
Stepn out of the circle is very strong, the top three: Japan / France / the United States, the mainland does not rank on the top ten
the game company in web3 is an observer not an owner. The running data on the blockchain will not be lost, Apple will lose.
private placement unlocked after one year, but the proportion is very low, 10% a few, unlocked there are three years long. And there are many institutions willing to come to take over the token.
multi-chain: sol / bsc / eth, the future will open nft platform
first quarter profit 2000w+ profit, second quarter more than three times, profit more than os, profit from tax extraction
ponzi scheme: similar to government agencies, the more users need to govern, similar to pensions are also "ponzi", if the service a positive direction, is a healthy direction, the goal is that users are not for money but because of the movement to participate in Stepn
to curb inflation: many games in the first 3% of the population of large households, spending more than 50%, the gem synthesis system is to play for large households. A senior gem costs tens of millions of dollars, passed on to rich players to pay for it
why choose SOLANA: 1. the fee is cheap and the transfer speed is fast; 2. the ecology is more active, there are more developers, there can be many projects and public chains to help, many early seed users come from solana
after two major directions: NFT market (brand will be independent, equivalent to a new platform, not only trading Stepn shoes, and other NFT) / web3 social (privacy, data)
Stepn does not welcome unions, has been constantly fighting unions, there will be many ways to identify scripts. Now the user behavior is very healthy, not just digging for buytips.
There will be a lot of brand cooperation in the future, Asics is the first brand to cooperate. The future may be able to do physical products co-branded release shoes, but will not go directly involved in making shoes.
