Friendzone 是一个可持续且可扩展的 Web3 平台，在区块链上重新定义了社交金融 (SocialFi)，已在 Polygon 权益证明网络上正式启动。
社交资本市场的推出是 Friendzone 实现成为 Web3 行业排名第一的社交媒体 dApp 的使命的众多重要里程碑中的第一个。
Friendzone 是一种全新的去中心化协议，它将传统社交媒体的参与与 Web3 技术带来的独特经济奖励结合起来，为创建更强大的在线社区铺平了道路。
这样，Friendzone 就不仅仅是另一个 SocialFi 平台了。
它代表了一种范式转变，不仅承认社交媒体的存在和影响力，而且以有形和可货币化的方式对其进行奖励。
它承诺将社交媒体行业重新定义为每一次互动都可能产生价值的地方，使内容创作者和用户能够以无缝的方式将他们的在线体验货币化。
Polygon PoS 的推出恰逢由天使投资者领导的一轮重大融资的结束，天使投资者包括 Kain Warwick（Synthetix 创始人）、Kieran Warwick（Illuvium 创始人）、Danny Wilson（Illuvium 首席财务官）、Thomas Aslanian（产品和代币负责人） Immutable 的创始人）、Anton Buenavista（Pendle Finance 创始团队）、Jackson Chan（PHD Capital 联合创始人）以及许多其他在 Synthetix、Pendle Finance、Bybit、Metastreet Labs 和 Renzo Protocol 拥有丰富经验的天使投资人。
在本轮融资中，Friendzone 的融资总额已超过 75 万美元，该初创公司很高兴欢迎上述投资者，以及 TN Lee（Pendle Finance 联合创始人）和 John Park（Sparklabs 合伙人）加入其不断壮大的顾问委员会。
将 SocialFi 提升到新的水平
Although Friendzone is competing in an increasingly crowded SocialFi space, its platform is differentiated from others through its nuanced incentive and protocol design. Friendzone is uniquely focused on overcoming the scalability and liquidity challenges that have hampered the growth of first-generation SocialFi platforms, setting it up to become the first protocol of its kind to go mainstream.
Friendzone has designed its protocol economics around an adaptive bonding curve that takes into account market feedback in real-time, ensuring that its token valuation is always fair, with continuous access for both small and large networks. Through this mechanism, it promotes sustained engagement and network growth without being constrained by the accessibility and liquidity bottlenecks that have held back alternative SocialFi protocols.
With its custom creator controls, Friendzone empowers everyone to be a creator with the ability to customize their social media activity and create tailored offerings ranging from public events to private groups, where they can set terms and prices that better reflect the value they provide. Besides the purchase and sale of its “Creator Chips”, Friendzone incorporates a staking feature into its tokenomics model that takes into account both the quantity and duration of the user’s stake. It’s inspired by Curve’s veCRV model and aims to ensure a more equitable distribution of each creator’s revenue, incentivizing network users to actively contribute to the success of every creator with a share of their rewards.
Through these novel innovations, Friendzone promises to transcend the emotional incentives of traditional social media networks by integrating powerful financial incentives enabled only with crypto, amplifying its network effects to enhance user engagement and fairly reward participation on the platform and all integrated decentralized applications existing today.
Friendzone has generated enormous interest prior to its launch on Polygon PoS, with more than 5,000 whitelisted users signed up. To ensure stability during its incentivized beta rollout, the protocol is capping the number of users allowed onto the network in batches of 1000. The plan is to progressively onboard more users as the project demonstrates its worth and evolves from its beta stage, where it will be closely monitored for bugs and refined to provide an optimal user experience.
The initial 1000 users selected to participate at launch can now head to X, formerly known as Twitter, to claim their Friendzone handles, which will be the same as their X handles.
During the initial launch period, Friendzone will also integrate a new points system into its protocol, enabling early adopters who beta test the product to begin accumulating points to enhance their rewards and reputations on the platform.
“We are immensely proud to launch Friendzone with the support of the Polygon ecosystem, a collaboration that marks a significant milestone in our journey. The Polygon PoS Network’s exceptional scalability, speed, and security offer the perfect foundation for Friendzone, enabling us to redefine social media engagement and monetization in the Web3 space. The commitment to innovation and the success of projects built on Polygon PoS is unparalleled. This strategic relationship is a testament to our shared vision of empowering users and creators in a disruptive decentralized digital economy.” said Kevin Lu, CEO & Co-Founder of Friendzone.
Friendzone is delighted to bring its collaboration with the Polygon ecosystem to the next level, tapping into its powerful ecosystem and leverage its expertise to explore new use cases and accelerate innovation in the SocialFi space. Friendzone is poised to unleash new dynamics and explore uncharted waters on Polygon PoS as it seeks to bring more value to users in the nascent decentralized social media industry.
The Polygon ecosystem has already distinguished itself in the blockchain arena with its strong ethos of innovation and a litany of unparalleled strategic brand collaborations, making it an ideal landing spots for Friendzone. The protocol’s integration with the Polygon network enables it to make future plans toward tapping into an innovative zkEVM-based Layer-2 architecture that will be instrumental in accelerating its growth as it scales its network and expands its user base. The Polygon networks are home to some of the most dynamic and diverse ecosystems of groundbreaking dApps and communities in the blockchain world, providing further opportunities to collaborate, innovate and bring SocialFi into the mainstream.
“Friendzone represents the first of its kind in the SocialFi space, pioneering a new era of social media that rewards engagement with real value. We are proud to have Friendzone build on Polygon PoS and to work closely with their team to achieve our mutual goals. Their innovative approach to integrating social interactions with value incentives sets a new standard in the industry. This collaboration underscores Polygon’s dedication to supporting groundbreaking projects that push the boundaries of what’s possible in Web3 and beyond.” said SungMo Park, Head of BD APAC at Polygon Labs.
Today’s launch and funding round represents the first of many milestones to come for Friendzone, laying the groundwork for a truly interoperable protocol that will provide a scalable foundation to support the monetization layer of on-chain social graphs.
