🌐 How Cryptid Hunter Contributes to the STEEM Ecosystem

Cryptid Hunter isn't just a game port. It's a long-term, purpose-built bridge into the STEEM ecosystem.

✅ 1. Seamless Web3 Onboarding for New Users

• STEEM Wallet Creation Support integrated directly into the game (completed)
• Tutorials for STEEM Keychain now available in-game (install, login, transaction signing)
• Guides on how to buy and use STEEM have been published
• Through missions and UI guidance, players naturally learn to post, vote, and engage

✅ 2. A Curation-Driven Web3 Experience

Cryptid Hunter avoids extractive mining models and instead promotes:

• Create → Curate → Earn → Repeat content cycles
• Player-generated guides, strategies, fan art, and reviews
• STEEM curation accounts used to reward authentic content creation, not AI or spam
• This leads to deeper community engagement and ecosystem loyalty

🧭 In STEEM, sustainable growth comes not from mining alone,
but from content creation and social curation.
Cryptid Hunter is built around this philosophy.

✅ 3. STEEM Utility & Burn Mechanics

• STEEM is now used for:

  • Energy purchases
  • Card synthesis
  • PvP tickets
  • Dungeon access
  • Special pack purchases

• A portion of the used STEEM is permanently burned, creating a deflationary sink

• A STEEM-based marketplace for user-to-user trading is also in the roadmap

✅ 4. A DAO-Approved Project

Cryptid Hunter was officially approved by STEEM.DAO through a public proposal,
demonstrating full transparency, community alignment, and long-term commitment.

🔥 NOVA Token Economy – Real-Time Mining, Burn-Based Sustainability

NOVA is the core utility and reward token mined through gameplay and burned through in-game activities.

📊 Economy Snapshot (as of June 16, 2025)

Metric	Value
Total NOVA Mined	~20,400,000
Total NOVA Burned	~14,200,000
NOVA in Circulation	~6,200,000
Burn Rate (vs Mined)	~69.6%

🔥 Over 69% of all mined NOVA has been burned,
proving a deflationary, anti-dump economy.
The same sustainable logic is being applied to STEEM through dungeons, packs, and item systems.

🧭 Why a Community Curator Account is Essential

To support sustainable growth of the STEEM ecosystem, a community curator account will enable us to:

• 🧑‍🎨 Curate high-quality STEEM content related to Cryptid Hunter (strategy guides, user reviews, game report etc.)
• Provide curation-based rewards for onboarding guides, tutorials, and helpful posts created by new players
• ✍️ Launch writing challenges, PvP tournaments, and STEEM-linked event missions to stimulate creative participation

One of the most important roles of the curator account will be to help TON-based Cryptid Hunter users quickly adapt to the STEEM ecosystem.

After the official launch on June 27, we will focus the first week on supporting players by:

• Helping them create STEEM wallets and connect Keychain
• Introducing how to use Steemit for posting, voting, and earning
• Running onboarding missions within the game that teach Web3 behaviors on STEEM

Players who complete these onboarding tasks will receive curation rewards as part of their adaptation process.

This curator account is not for internal benefit,
but serves as a bridge between gameplay and the broader STEEM ecosystem,
especially designed to help TON users evolve into STEEM content creators and long-term participants.
