Yes, thank you and thank you for joining us. So we are excited to have you here and hope everyone enjoys the conversation. So before we start with questions to start off today's Mas, can you introduce yourself and the key members of WIP teams?
Introduction of WIP Team
Yes, thank you. Hi everyone, my name is Andre, I'm the CEO and CTO of Wix. I have two other members as well, Lycon and Marcel, who are my co founders. Lycoan is the CMO and Marcel artist is the CEO. Yes. Thank you for sharing your introduction. So maybe the audience can have a comprehensive perspective about yourself as a CEO and also as a co founder. And so could you give us an overview of wips? Like what is your vision for ACG community and how do you see whips shaping the futures of the industry?
Overview and Vision of Wips
Thank you so much. Yeah, so whips is basically a web three marketplace that connects anime, comic and gaming communities. Otaku creators and fans. Yeah. So, and I think the main points here is to make sure that creators and fans can have better engagement in a safe and trustworthy way. So I think seg industry is not a new industry. And I believe the emergence of whips, especially in the past one and a half years, they have proven to ourselves and the community that there are still many tools that ACG industry lead, especially on creators and fans engagement. And other than that, the way to monetize that engagement and for the creators to actually make money as well.
Unique Selling Points of Wips
Yes. It's inspiring to see such a strong reason for community. It sounds like whips is poised to become a central hub for ACG enthusiasts worldwide. So I want to ask that, could you give us an overview of wips? Like what? We are curious about whips unique selling point, like what standout features, what makes whips a must visit platform for creators and fans? Sure. Yeah. So actually for loop app, it's the pilot project that we have as bibs and we started it in January 2023. So in 2023 we started with the marketplace to sell photo packs, to sell videos, fans, signs. Yeah.
Features of Wips
So basically to engage the engagement between the creators and the fans. And I think as the month goes by, I think within the one year we have a super complete and robust features which have been deployed on Wips as well, but not everything. So we do have chat features, we do have fansite and customized requests. We have also follow features, social features, leaderboards, streaming overlays. So I think in terms of the features on weeps, we have one of the most robust monetization that can help creators engage with their fans and with weeps. Actually it's Halo app on steroid because we inject Halloo app with all the web three functionalities such as cross border transactions and social fi as well, so that there are more ways for the creators to make money possible.
Conclusion on Wips Overview
So that's the overview of Wips. Yes, I understand those features really highlight how Wips is more than just a marketplace. This is a full ecosystem for ACG community. So can you share more about the Wips of token like whips? What makes it special and how does it add value to whips experience? Yes, so with this WIps token there are many functionalities that we can we are going to deploy. One of them is actually lower transaction fee. So if you are using USDT we have a platform fee of 10%, but if you are using wips it's going to be 8% or less.
Staking and Rewards
Secondly, creators and fans and investors can actually stake their wips tokenization and they get an APY starting from 10%. And third, for all the stakers and creators that are active in vips, we do have like a special IP merchandise collaborations with ips from Japan and over the globe and they can have special access and special purchase when they stick their whips. So I think those are the main functionality. But I think one of the most crucial one is for what we call the cosplay to earn those creators that are staking their whips when they share their photo packs and products, even illustrations on Twitter and their socials, they get a chunk of the tools that they can get rewards on a daily basis. So I think those are the main usage of tweets.
Plans for Wips
Yeah, wow. It's great to see how webs enhance the user experience on multiple levels and the integration of a native token truly at a unique dynamic to the platform. So I think these questions will be the most interesting questions that the audience want to hear is what exciting plans are in store for Wips. Like we would love to hear about your roadmap and any upcoming updates that the community can look for. What to yes, so basically we do have a couple of release in the next couple of months, especially the whips first. So whips first is actually the first web, three meta web metaphors for ACG industry. So actually creators can have global and virtual meet and greet with their fans.
Upcoming Features
They can interact, they can have one one sessions. They can watch movies together inside the metaverse. And second is that we are going to release our launchpad as well. So we do have a launch pad, especially for ACG projects, not necessarily on crypto, but comics merchandise, IPS games. Yeah. So those are the main big three features that we can release. Yeah. Yes. Those plans sound like fantastic. I'm sure the community will be excited to hear all the developments unfold. And whips is definitely a platform to watch as it continues to evolve. And I that's inspiring envision for the futures of wips.
