Azuki, a leading NFT project, has announced the launch of a cryptocurrency project AnimeCoin, set to occur this month on the Ethereum and Arbitrum platforms.
The Vision Behind AnimeCoin
AnimeCoin (ANIME) aims to transform the anime ecosystem into a community-owned creative economy. It will allow fans to become active participants and creators of anime-related content. The mission is to engage the 1 billion anime fans globally in creating art, fashion, music, and gaming, utilizing blockchain technology.
Tokenomics: How AnimeCoin Will Be Distributed
The AnimeCoin project aims to ensure fairness and inclusivity for the anime community:
* **Community**: 50.5% of the total supply will go directly to the community. * **Azuki Community**: 37.5% is reserved for early supporters, with unclaimed tokens moving to the Community Cultivation pool. * **Community Cultivation**: 13% managed by the AnimeDAO. * **Domain Expansion**: 24.44% allocated for developing the AnimeCoin ecosystem. * **Partner Communities**: 2% reserved for participating communities like Hyperliquid and Arbitrum. * **Team and Advisors**: 15.62% for Azuki employees and advisors with a three-year vesting period. * **Company**: 7.44% allocated to Azuki as a continuing contributor.
Collaboration with Industry Leaders
Azuki's collaboration with the Arbitrum Foundation and the Weeb3 Foundation is setting the stage for AnimeCoin. This partnership aims to create a decentralized platform for consuming and creating anime content.
Azuki founder Alex Xu, known as Zagabond, intends to consolidate the fragmented anime space, creating a global platform for creators and fans. The community speculates a potential collaboration with the popular anime 'Jujutsu Kaisen', as its image appeared on the AnimeCoin tokenomics page.
AnimeCoin represents a significant step in advancing the anime industry, offering fans new opportunities to influence and create.
