In GameFi 1.0, the old approach of rewarding in-game currency with an unlimited supply clearly harms both gamers and GameFi projects when dealing with token inflation. Furthermore, the most recent approach of rewarding gamers with NFTs raises the issue of NFT illiquidity. This creates high barriers to entry for new players and low motivation for current players to stick with the game in the long run. #### Less stickiness for players Gamers earn NFTs as rewards for playing games. However, once they have finished farming, gamers will find it difficult to sell their NFTs at the price they desire because the only way for them to cash out their NFTs is to list them on the P2P marketplace and wait for other people to buy. The illiquidity of NFTs will then decrease players' motivation to stick with the game. #### High Barriers for new players The GameFi protocol has no way of controlling the price of NFTs. The gamers who own the NFT have the right to sell it at any price they want through the P2P marketplace. As a result, it's difficult for new players to afford NFTs to play the game. *It is clear that a critical pain point in almost every GameFi project is the lack of a sustainable approach for incentivizing and rewarding gamers while balancing the net benefits for both current and new players.* ## TeaDAO as An Ultimate Solution TeaDAO proudly introduces the first-ever NFTs-as-a-Bonding-Asset mechanism that allows GameFi to grow the ecosystem user base while scaling revenue accrual through more sustainable price-controlled NFT liquidity. GameFi no longer needs to follow the BTC/ETH narrative when it becomes a self-sustaining ecosystem. ![](https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/CTlYGn0SJpivpInL35uSllniyBHrVA9VmjngyfKTWzJdGCm62Y-QdnreUjOzCA5gih5YPRFnYEuCVUJeiRkgfr46bR9vWlvMsZJFgRp_R_XGcQvuL6Q63uTsQ2qCeBzvOJav7vqb) TeaDAO allows GameFi projects to create an NFT Liquidity Pool by providing liquidity (stablecoins) into the TeaDAO treasury. These stables are used to mint TEA. Their users then are able to sell NFTs into the pool and receive TEA (which is backed by stables that the GameFi projects have poured into the treasury) in return. Once NFTs are sold into the pool, NFTs are under GameFi projects' control. #### How does NaaBA **create** a Win, Win, Win for Everyone? For **GameFi projects:** * Once the NFTs are sold into the pool, the projects now have full control over the NFTs. They can burn NFTs if they think that there are too many NFTs in their ecosystem, increasing their value. * If they think there is a lack of NFTs in their ecosystem, they will recycle the NFTs in the pool by re-introducing/ reselling the NFTs to their ecosystem at a reasonable price. New gamers could now more easily afford an NFT. By using this service, GameFi projects will somehow be able to control the price of NFT. And by doing so, they will be able to lower the barrier for new players, increase their user base. For **Current Gamers:** The NFT Bonding pool will allow them to cash out their NFTs faster. Gamers now unlock a stable income by selling NFTs to earn a scalable reserve currency. For **New Gamers:** They will immediately benefit from the NFT price drop and be able to enter the game sooner, leading to increased cash flow. Everyone wins. # Market Dynamics There are several feedback mechanisms within the system. These are self-reinforcing behaviors; action 1 increases the rate of action 2 which increases the rate of action 1. Circular mechanics like this are the drivers of exponential expansion and boom and bust cycles. Loose policy states enable these dynamics while tight policy states suppress them. ## Player Goals **Stakers care primarily about their TEA balance.** While price is important in valuing their TEA and determining the rate at which it grows, it is not the main goal. A smart staker cares only about the short and long term growth prospects of the network. That growth translates into wealth via price and balance growth. **Bonders care primarily about TEA price.** When they bond, these users lock in a fixed reward in TEA. Therefore, network profitability is only helpful in calculating opportunity cost or gain; bonders have their TEA gains locked in. The ideal scenario for a bonder is for price to go up; in this case, the bonder benefits from their discount on TEA and the increase in price. Bonders are still happy if the price remains flat; their profit is the discount from the bond. Like stakers, bonders profit from inactivity at or around their buy in via an increasing balance. Bonders only lose when the price goes down beyond the discount on the bond. At this point, the bonder will choose between the TEA or the SLP, depending on which one is worth more. Bonders always get to choose the better of the two assets, effectively combining the best pieces of both assets' risk - reward profiles. ## Market Dynamics The default state of the network is at intrinsic value. After some long period of inactivity, price will always return to this level. Contractions are conceivably only triggered by short-term liquidity crises. Since TEA holders have a guarantee that price will come back above intrinsic value eventually, the only sellers below should be those who need a short-term exit and are willing to take the extra loss. **Expansions can be triggered by an increase in staking or bonding.** An increase in staking will generally be preceded by purchases from the market. That increases price, which allows the protocol to sell at a higher price and increases yield for stakers. That should serve to bring in more stakers and continue the cycle. Meanwhile, the rising price increases the bond discount and creates capacity for new bonds. These are preceded by new liquidity, which improves the protocol's ability to carry out sales and increases available exit liquidity. This positive price-liquidity feedback loop should serve to create sustainable expansionary periods. However, they work both ways. Falling demand decreases staking rewards and bond capacity, causing demand to fall further. This is an unavoidable fact of systems like this; even the best (i.e. Bitcoin) are no stranger to significant declines after periods of expansion. But we can work to mitigate busts. This is where the protocol's reserves step in and to catch the market when velocity turns too far to the downside. It does so through forward guidance (the fact that the protocol *will* buy lowers risk the lower we go, which can mean we *don't have to* buy) and by buying perpetually below intrinsic value. The treasury ensures that, although bear markets and contractions can and will occur, the protocol can never die. # Roadmap **Q1/2022 - Fundraising & Community Building** * [x] Fundraising * [x] Officially launch website and social marketing channels * [x] Research GameFi, NFT, DeFi - **Q2/2022** * [x] Sentry - GameFi Pulse * [x] NFT Price Feed * [x] TEA Bonding + Staking - **Q3/2022** * [x] NFT bonding as a service * [x] Bonding as a service * [x] NFT Portfolio - **Q4/2022** * [x] Cross-chain bonding as a service * [x] Cross Marketing + Partnership - **Q1/2023:** * [x] MetaFi Phase 1 * [x] $PTEA Releasing * [x] NFT bonding cross-chain - **Q2/2023** * [x] $TEA Official Lising * [x] DEX Listing * [x] Release Staking feature - **Q3/2023** * [x] NFT Price Feed v1 Launch (Project on Ronin chain) * [x] NFT Collections partnership * [x] NFT Pool Development * [x] TeaGPT Conceptualization and Planning - **Q4/2023** * [x] NFT Price-feed extension (Additional NFT projects on ETH and BSC) * [x] NFT Pool v1 Launch * [x] NFT Pool extension (Ronin, ETH and BSC) * [x] TeaGPT Development - **Q1/2024** * [x] TeaGPT v1 Launch (web-exclusive feature) * [ ] Multichain NFT Price feed Implementation * [ ] TeaGPT Cross-Platform Integration (Window/ MacOs) * [ ] Cross Marketing + Partnership - **Q2/2024** * [ ] Multichain NFT Pool Implementation * [ ] TeaGPT Mobile app * [ ] Expanded Feature Set * [ ] Community Feedback Mechanism * [ ] Multi-Language Support # TEA Service # Stake Maximizing Returns with Staking **All you have to do is hold.** *Staking is how profits are distributed equitably to the participants. By way of sTEA, everyone will get the same percentage profit for each epoch. Therefore, the act of rebasing also gives us the chance to compound yields without having to harvest or do anything apart from holding*. Buying TEA and staking is **good** for you, **great** for TEA and **fantastic** for everyone in the community as a whole. #### **Staking is the primary value accrual strategy of TeaDAO.** Stakers stake their TEA to earn rebase rewards. The rebase rewards come from the proceeds from bond sales. The rebase rewards come from the proceeds from bond sales, and can vary based on the number of TEA staked in the protocol and the reward rate set by monetary policy. #### **Staking is a passive, long-term strategy.** Buying and staking can also be viewed as a method for passive investing in which you can **stake** and **forget**. You let your rewards and your initial staked amount **auto-compound**. Even when the market price falls below your purchase price, given a long enough time frame, the compounded rewards will outpace the drop in price. #### **When you stake, you lock TEA and receive an equal amount of sTEA.** Your sTEA balance rebases up automatically at the end of every epoch. sTEA is transferable and therefore composable with other DeFi protocols. #### **When you unstake, you burn sTEA and receive an equal amount of TEA.** Unstaking means the user will forfeit the upcoming rebase reward. Note that the forfeited reward is only applicable to the unstaked amount; the remaining staked TEA (if any) will continue to receive rebase rewards. ## # NFT Service # NFT Price Feed ⏩https\://app.teadao.money/#/nft-price-feed The NFT Price Feed offers automatic price evaluations for your favorite NFT, enhancing your digital assets journey. **Why NFT Price Feed Matters?** 1. **Enhancing Your NFT Experience**: We understand that navigating the ever-expanding universe of NFTs can be exhilarating, yet challenging.

Recognizing the challenges posed by diverse traits across different projects, we introduce compact parameters, including rarityScore and utilityScore, to encapsulate crucial information. Additionally, we address low transaction volume by enriching data using similarityScore, allowing us to approximate appropriate prices for NFTs with limited transaction history. We also explore ensemble modeling, leading to improved predictive accuracy. The results demonstrate significant progress, with our AI model achieving approximately 83% accuracy. This research lays the foundation for TeaDAO's pioneering role in the NFT valuation space, offering transparent and informed price evaluations to empower NFT enthusiasts and investors. **Literature Review** The valuation of Non-Fungible Tokens (NFTs) has garnered significant attention in the current market, with various approaches being explored. In this literature review, we will examine the two most prevalent methods for NFT valuation, namely the community-driven approach and the AI-driven model approach. 1. Community-driven approach: The community-driven approach relies on crowd intelligence to gather appraisals from community members. One prominent example of this method is Upshot, which initially utilized community-based appraisers and later incorporated Machine Learning (ML) techniques. The advantages of this approach include its ease of implementation and cost-effectiveness. However, it also exhibits some notable drawbacks, such as limited scalability and potential inaccuracies in pricing due to subjective biases. 2. AI-driven model approach: The AI-driven model approach has gained traction in the NFT valuation domain due to its scalability and efficiency. Several platforms, including NFT Bank, BankSea, and Bitscrunch, have adopted this method. Leveraging AI algorithms, this approach offers fast and scalable price predictions for NFTs. However, developing an AI model with accurate predictions for all NFT projects presents a notable challenge. Considering the two approaches, we have opted to work on the AI-driven model approach for evaluating NFT prices, given its potential for scalability and faster processing times. The proposed methodology encompasses the following general steps, which have been adopted by leading platforms such as Chainlink and BankSea:

ChainLink methodology

BankSea Methodology

1. Prepare Data: The initial step involves data collection and preparation. Data from various sources, including historical NFT transactions, metadata, and any relevant external factors influencing NFT prices, is gathered and processed. Proper data cleaning and preprocessing techniques are applied to ensure data accuracy and consistency. 2. Construct Model: An essential aspect of the AI-driven model approach is the construction of a robust and efficient model. Machine learning algorithms, such as neural networks, random forests, or support vector machines, are commonly utilized for this purpose. The model is trained using the prepared dataset to learn patterns and correlations between NFT attributes and their respective prices. 3. Compute the Price Predictions: Once the model is trained, it can be employed to predict the prices of NFTs based on their attributes. By inputting the relevant features of an NFT, the AI model generates an approximate valuation for the asset. It is worth noting that specific details of how each platform executes these steps are often proprietary information. As an example, we will outline our approach at TeaDAO: 1. Data Collection and Preparation: We acquire data from various NFT marketplaces and platforms, including transaction histories, token metadata, and sentiment analysis from social media. The data is then processed and cleaned to eliminate any outliers or inconsistencies that might skew the model's predictions. 2. AI Model Development: We employ state-of-the-art deep learning techniques to build a neural network model tailored to NFT price prediction. Our model undergoes extensive training on a large dataset, incorporating techniques like transfer learning and fine-tuning to enhance its predictive capabilities. 3. Price Prediction and Evaluation: With our AI model in place, we can compute price predictions for specific NFTs based on their characteristics. To evaluate the accuracy and effectiveness of our model, we employ cross-validation techniques and assess the Mean Absolute Error (MAE) and Root Mean Square Error (RMSE) between predicted and actual prices. In the next part of our R\&D, we aim to improve our AI-driven NFT valuation tool by enhancing the model's architecture, exploring additional data sources, and employing advanced natural language processing techniques to incorporate qualitative aspects affecting NFT prices. # The Approach **Phase 1: Data Preparation and Model Construction** During the initial phase of our NFT price evaluation tool development, which extended until May, TeaDAO focused on data preparation and model construction. In this stage, we aimed to gather comprehensive data on NFTs, including their traits and transaction volumes across various marketplaces. **Data Preparation:** To ensure the availability of diverse and reliable data, TeaDAO implemented a web crawling process to extract NFT information from multiple sources, such as on-chain data and popular marketplaces like: Foundation, LarvaLabs Contract, LooksRare, NFTX, OpenSea, Rarible, and SuperRare. This extensive data collection allowed us to compile a rich dataset encompassing a wide range of NFTs from different collections.
* NFT's Traits: One crucial aspect of data preparation involved analyzing NFT traits to identify their impact on the asset's price. To accomplish this, we utilized data from OpenSea and visually mapped NFT prices corresponding to specific traits. By observing the relationships between trait values and prices, we were able to identify and exclude traits that exhibited minimal influence on NFT valuation. For instance, in the case of the NFT collection "Otherdeeds," we discovered that traits like "Environment" and "Eastern" had limited significance in determining the NFT's price.
* Transaction Volumes: To supplement the data from OpenSea, which primarily provided transaction histories for NFTs, we incorporated Dune to access transaction volumes from a diverse range of marketplaces. By combining data from various sources, including Foundation, LarvaLabs Contract, LooksRare, NFTX, OpenSea, Rarible, and SuperRare, we obtained a comprehensive understanding of NFT price trends and transaction dynamics. **Model Construction:** With a well-prepared dataset in hand, TeaDAO proceeded to construct the NFT price prediction models. We adopted a standard approach, dividing the dataset into two parts: 80% for training and 20% for testing. To explore different modeling techniques, we employed two regression models: linear regression and regression based on k-nearest neighbors. **Test and Evaluate the Results:** Following model construction, we subjected our AI models to rigorous testing and evaluation. The performance of the models was assessed using the Mean Absolute Percentage Error (MAPE) metric, which measures the accuracy of predictions. Unfortunately, the results did not meet our expectations, with the overall accuracy hovering around 65%. **Lessons Learned:** The first phase of our NFT price evaluation tool development provided valuable insights into the challenges and complexities of predicting NFT prices with AI models. We identified several key lessons that will inform our approach in the subsequent phases: * Model Complexity: The presence of projects with a multitude of traits rendered the AI model cumbersome and difficult to handle. Addressing this complexity will be crucial in enhancing the model's efficiency and performance. * Heterogeneity of NFT Traits: The wide variation in traits across different projects presented a significant obstacle to scalability. The need to account for diverse traits in the model requires further attention and optimization. * Model Diversity: Our preliminary efforts with two regression models highlighted the importance of expanding our model repertoire. Integrating a diverse set of AI models and techniques may yield more accurate predictions across a broader spectrum of NFT projects. **Phase 2: Compact Parameters and Enhanced Model Tuning** In Phase 1, we encountered challenges when attempting to input every aspect of an NFT into the pricing model, leading us to explore a new and improved methodology. During Phase 2, we successfully addressed these issues by compacting NFT information into four main parameters: rarityScore, similarityScore, reputationScore, and utilityScore. As a result, our AI-driven model exhibited better tuning, leading to significantly improved results with an accuracy of approximately 83%. **RarityScore and UtilityScore:** Recognizing the complexity of handling diverse traits across different NFT projects, we focused on two key parameters to better reflect the impact of traits and determine NFT prices accurately: * RarityScore: To evaluate the scarcity and uniqueness of each NFT, we calculated rarity scores for the Otherdeed NFT collection. An example of rarity scores for 100,000 NFT items in the collection can be accessed at the following link: <[**Example RarityScore Data for Otherdeed NFT Collection**](https://nftpulse.s3.amazonaws.com/uploads/full_nft_data_rarity_score.csv)**>**
* UtilityScore: The utilityScore for GameFi projects, such as Axie Infinity, required a project-specific approach. For instance, in Axie Infinity, the utilityScore is derived from variables like "health," "defense," "attack," and "cards." Considering these unique aspects enabled a more accurate assessment of the practical usefulness and functionality of NFTs. Enriching Data with SimilarityScore: The challenge of low transaction volume for certain NFTs, such as the Otherdeeds collection, was addressed by employing similarityScore. To enrich the dataset, we tracked and analyzed prices of comparable NFTs that had been sold. The Jaccard Similarity function was employed to measure the degree of similarity between NFTs, allowing us to determine appropriate prices for NFTs with limited transaction history. **Impact of SimilarityScore:** Applying similarityScore with a threshold of 0.9 for the Otherdeeds collection resulted in a substantial increase in the number of NFT transactions. The transaction volume rose from approximately 30,000 to around 45,000, providing a more comprehensive and informative dataset for evaluation. **Expanded Model Testing:** In addition to the models used in Phase 1, we introduced several new models to enhance the predictive accuracy of our NFT price evaluation tool. The models we tested included: * Ridge: [**Scikit-learn Ridge Documentation**](https://scikit-learn.org/stable/modules/generated/sklearn.linear_model.Ridge.html) * DecisionTreeRegressor: [**Scikit-learn DecisionTreeRegressor Documentation**](https://scikit-learn.org/stable/modules/generated/sklearn.tree.DecisionTreeRegressor.html) * RandomForestRegressor: [**Scikit-learn RandomForestRegressor Documentation**](https://scikit-learn.org/stable/modules/generated/sklearn.ensemble.RandomForestRegressor.html) * BaggingRegressor: [**Scikit-learn BaggingRegressor Documentation**](https://scikit-learn.org/stable/modules/generated/sklearn.ensemble.BaggingRegressor.html) Among these models, RandomForestRegressor demonstrated the best results, achieving a remarkable Mean Absolute Percentage Error (MAPE) of 0.042034438274596166. **Continued Testing and Evaluation:** Throughout Phase 2, we maintained the same rigorous testing and evaluation approach from Phase 1. The continuous improvement and fine-tuning of our AI-driven models led to the attainment of significantly improved results. Phase 2 represented a pivotal milestone in our research, yielding the best predictive accuracy achieved thus far. # Limitations and Areas for Improvement 1. Enhancing Similarity Calculation\ \ The current similarity calculation formula requires refinement to better capture the unique characteristics of each project and reflect the impact of traits accurately. In particular, in-game NFTs often exhibit complex interactions between traits, influencing their overall value. Updating the similarity calculation method will enable a more nuanced evaluation of NFT prices, considering how specific traits complement or limit each other. 2. Comprehensive Price Determinants\ \ While our AI-driven model considers parameters like rarityScore and utilityScore, it is crucial to acknowledge that NFT prices are influenced by a myriad of factors beyond these parameters. Market trends in the blockchain space, overall project performance, social signals, and historical ownership data all play pivotal roles in determining the price of an NFT. Integrating these additional factors into our model will yield a more comprehensive and accurate pricing mechanism. 3. Ensemble Modeling Approach\ \ To enhance predictive accuracy, we recognize the potential benefits of adopting an ensemble modeling approach. Currently, the models operate individually, but combining their outputs could lead to more robust and reliable price predictions. Implementing ensemble methods, such as model averaging or stacking, may result in superior performance compared to using individual models in isolation. 4. Continuous Data Reviews\ \ As the NFT market is highly dynamic and constantly evolving, the effectiveness of our model requires continuous evaluation and adaptation. We plan to regularly update the review section with actual data from new transactions in the future. This iterative process will help us refine our model and ensure it remains responsive to emerging market trends and changing dynamics. 5. Interpretability and Explainability\ \ Understanding the factors that influence the output results of our model is essential for users' trust and confidence. To achieve this, we are committed to developing an interpretable and explainable AI model. Techniques such as feature importance analysis and model visualization will allow us to elucidate how specific factors affect the predicted NFT prices. By providing transparent explanations, users can make more informed decisions based on the model's output. **Conclusion**: As we progress in the development of the AI-driven NFT price evaluation tool, we are dedicated to overcoming the identified limitations and implementing necessary improvements. Addressing the challenges of similarity calculation, incorporating comprehensive price determinants, exploring ensemble modeling, and regularly updating data reviews will fortify the robustness and relevance of our model. # NFT Pool This document introduces NFT Pool, a pioneering peer-to-pool NFT trading mechanism that aims to redefine the landscape of non-fungible tokens (NFTs).

A minimum investment is the smallest token or money quantity a new player can purchase when investing in a GameFi. Axie Infinity, for example, may require that their player deposit at least 3 Axies to play. Or, StepN may require at least a pair of shoes to be invested. This is the minimum investment required for GameFi to manage their players’ money. **ROI (Return on Investment)** Return on investment (ROI) is a performance measure used to evaluate the efficiency or profitability of a Gamefi or compare the efficiency of a number of different games. ROI tries to directly measure the amount of return when joining a particular GameFi, relative to the investment’s cost. How can Sentry calculate ROI? The benefit (or return) of an investment is divided by the cost of the investment. The result is expressed as a percentage or a ratio. **Payback Period** The term payback period refers to the amount of time it takes to recover the cost of an investment. Simply put, it is the length of time an investment reaches a breakeven point. Players mainly invest their money into GameFi to get paid back, which is why the payback period is so important. In essence, the shorter the investment's payback, the more attractive it becomes. Determining the payback period is useful for players and can be done by dividing the initial investment by the average income. Sentry figures out the payback period by using the following formula: Payback Period = Cost of Investment ÷ Average Annual Income.
**Seniority Distribution** The token seniority distribution dashboard shows the number of tokens and the number of addresses in percentage holding on to tokens for various time periods. Generally, the higher the amount of token held for longer periods of time signals positive perception and conviction towards the value of the token as people are seeing it for its long-term potential. If the percentage of addresses holding it for longer periods is also high, it signals that more people agree with the token's long-term potential. Of course, there are many other factors as to why people are more likely to hold the tokens for longer periods of time, which could be tied to certain vesting schedules, staking or holding rewards, other utility, etc. **Unique Holder** Unique holder shows how many holders or different wallets have at least 1 NFT from a particular collection. This number is shown on Opensea as the number of “owners”. This is one of the most important metrics for an NFT project. There are two reasons why we should care about Unique Holder. First of all, The more unique holders a gamefi project has, the bigger the community is, at least in theory. This means the potential reach the project can have will be higher. More holders means more people with a vested interest in spreading the message for a project. Secondly, A GameFi project with a more spread of distribution can help protect smaller holders from drastic price changes due to a large holder dumping a big chunk of their NFTs. If a few people hold a large percentage of the NFTs in a collection, those people could potentially kill the momentum a project has by dumping all of their NFTs. If the project doesn’t have a lot of volume trading, where people would come in to buy the dump, it could even be a death blow for the project. # NFTs **NFT Price** The current price that an NFT is trading for on the market. Every publicly-traded GameFi project or collection, when its NFTs are issued, is given a price – an assignment of their value that ideally reflects the value of the GameFi/ collection itself. The price of an NFT will go up and down in relation to a number of different factors, including changes within the market as a whole, changes within the law of supply and demand, and mention of the project’s name. **Top Rarity NFTs rank** NFT rarity measures how rare an NFT is relative to the rest of the collection. Generally driven by the laws of supply and demand, rarity and market value go hand-in-hand. An NFT rarity rank is a metric that quantifies the uniqueness of a non-fungible token's (NFT's) traits as compared to other NFTs within the same GameFi. The tool weights the proportion of NFTs with a specific trait in a collection relative to the total number of NFTs in the collection. An NFT's total rarity score, which is used to compare it to the other NFTs in the collection, is calculated by adding the rarity values for all of its features. Sentry offers a built-in rarity score based on the uniqueness of an NFT’s rarest individual trait while also weighting the combined rarity of the full NFT — a holistic approach that avoids over or underweighting the final metric. **Top Diamond Hands** Diamond hand means holding on to an investment asset despite volatility and risks. Rather than running for a haven when an NFT/ Token is taking a beating or appears to sustain serious damage, a user with diamond hands battens down the proverbial hatches, trims the main and holds course. Since the GameFi token is a highly volatile asset, traders in this community have plenty of chances to talk about holding on through the highs and the lows. For many traders, tokens/NFTs reflect a personal and emotional investment. Therefore, having diamond hands demonstrates an overall investment in the GameFi asset's future. Diamond hand metric by Sentry should be considered as a piece of advice to discuss issues such as "when to hold 'em, when to fold 'em" and how to build a strategy that reflects user's risk tolerance, timeline, and goals. **Profit Leaderboard** Top addresses ranking by accumulated profit. Sentry only ranks addresses that generated at least 1 activity over the past 6 months based on DEX transactions.
# Social
**Social Score** A combination of four metrics — the price score, social impact score, average sentiment, and correlation rank. It measures the relative price appreciation between current and previous interval MACD (moving average convergence divergence), engagement and impact across various social media platforms, average sentiment classified by our machine-learning engines, and correlation of social media volumes and spam to price and volume. The metrics are aggregated and normalized to a scale of 100. **Social Volume** The total number of text documents that contain the given search term at least once. Examples of documents are telegram messages and Twitter tweets. If a single short telegram message includes the word “Axie” more than once, this message will increase the social volume of the word “Axie” by 1. If a tweet contains the word ”Axie” 10 times, this again will increase the social volume of the word ”Axie” by 1. **Social Engagement** The process of communicating (engaging) in the community of a GF project. The conversation can take place on individual social media platforms such as Twitter, Telegram, or in blogs, forums, and third-party review sites. A strong social engagement strategy allows projects to remain in constant contact with their players by advancing brand interests and responding to feedback in a seamless cycle. # Comparison Evaluating the competition is essential because it plays a significant role in choosing which investments other investors flock to and which ones individuals want to make. Even slight differences can turn the tables, and keeping up with them is important. In this section of the site, you’ll be able to quickly compare different assets to get an idea of how they stack up against each other! Let’s say you wanted to compare projects. All you have to do is enter the token names you want to compare in the search bar. For example, you want to pit Axies Infinity against Ape Coin and against Decentraland to see which has the most promising return rates for you. Our tool will give you all of the metrics you’re used to seeing on the single pages, but it will allow you to quickly see exactly where AXS stands in comparison to MANA and APE on token price, trading volume, social followings and more.
You can also use this feature to perform a comparison to see if the Gamefi token you have chosen is worth investing in. Our aggregator can help you capture things that you have missed, and being able to see the data right next to each other is a valuable tool that could help you avoid making costly mistakes! When you start using these tools, you should ask yourself a few questions to come to a wise decision.
By using Sentry comparison tool, you can examine the trading statistics for various projects to make it easier to pick the option with the highest likelihood of success. This helps you avoid GameFi with falling trading volume that could turn into a dead game. # NFT Portfolio https\://app.teadao.money/#/portfolio/ The TeaDAO NFT Portfolio stands as an exemplar of user-centric design, offering an intuitive interface that seamlessly consolidates and presents users' NFT-related activities.

# Scope of Terms Unless otherwise stated herein, your purchase of TEA (whether through an intermediary or otherwise), and continued holding and/or usage of TEA is governed solely by these Terms. New terms or policies may be published from time to time on the Platform at our sole discretion.

The Seller reserves the right to require you to provide us with your personal details (including without limitation full legal name, address and details of the digital wallet from which you have sent the payment), and it is your responsibility to provide correct details. Failure to provide this information will prevent us from transferring TEA to your digital wallet.

(xx) You hereby acknowledge that the Seller has entered into these Terms in reliance upon your representations and warranties being true, accurate, complete and non-misleading. The Seller does not and does not purport to make, and hereby disclaims, all representations, warranties or undertaking to you in in relation to the sale of TEA or otherwise. Prospective purchasers of TEA should carefully consider and evaluate all risks and uncertainties (including financial and legal risks and uncertainties) associated with the TEA token sale, the Seller, and any relevant Group Entity.
# Regulations You hereby acknowledge and accept that: (i) The Seller may be required to conduct customer identification, due diligence and anti-money laundering due diligence on all purchasers of TEA in compliance with all applicable laws and legislations. The Seller may determine, in its sole discretion, that it is necessary to obtain certain information about you in order to comply with these laws and legislations. You agree to provide such information to the Seller promptly upon request, and you acknowledge that the Seller may refuse to sell TEA to you until you provide such requested information and the Seller has determined that it is permissible to sell you TEA token under applicable law or regulation. (ii) The Seller may at any point in time request information and/or documentation to establish that its identification records, as well as the information that form your profile, remain completely updated. In this respect, the Seller reserves the right to examine and check on a regular basis the validity and adequacy of your identification data and information maintained. For the avoidance of doubt, the Seller shall not be required to notify you of the outcome of any of its customer identification, due diligence and/or anti-money laundering due diligence checks, or in any case provide reasons for unsatisfactory results of checks. (iii) If at any time the Seller becomes aware that reliable or adequate data and information are missing from your identity, the Seller reserves the right to take all necessary actions to collect the missing data and information (whether from you or from third parties) so as to update and complete your profile as necessary. (iv) If you fail or refuse to submit, within a reasonable timeframe, the required data and identification information for the updating of your identity and, as a consequence, the Seller is unable to comply with any laws, legislations regulations or directives relating to customer identification requirements, the Seller will not be able to sell TEA and/or continue its relationship with you, and the Seller may be required to submit a report of suspicious transactions/activities to the relevant authorities.
# Cancellation & Refusal at Seller's Discretion Your purchase of TEA (whether through an intermediary or otherwise) from the Seller is final; there are no refunds or cancellations except as may be required by applicable law or regulation and you waive any rights to be refunded any amounts which you have paid to the Seller in exchange for TEA tokens or to cancel any purchase. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Seller reserves the right to refuse or cancel any request(s) to purchase or purchases of TEA (as the case may be), at any time in its sole discretion without giving reasons, including without limitation the following: (i) in connection with any failure to complete know-your-customer, anti-money laundering and counter terrorist financing checks prescribed by the Seller; (ii) in connection with a change of business or development plan of the Seller; or (iii) in connection with an adverse change of the regulatory environment. For the avoidance of doubt, the Seller shall not be required to notify you of the outcome of any of our customer identification, due diligence and/or anti-money laundering due diligence checks, or in any case provide reasons for unsatisfactory results of checks. In the event that the Seller refuses or cancels any request(s) to purchase TEA, the price paid by you shall be rejected or refunded (as applicable) in accordance with the Seller's internal policies and procedures, less fees and expenses incurred in connection with the marketing and/or development of the Platform and the ecosystem thereon, or, if required by applicable law, confiscated. The Seller reserves the right to require you to provide the Seller with your personal details (including without limitation correct name, address and details of the digital wallet from which you have sent the payment), and it is your responsibility to provide correct details. Failure to provide this information will prevent the Seller from allocating the token to your digital wallet. Any refund of the price under this Clause 3 shall be less network fees, calculated at the USD exchange rate of the relevant token which had been paid to the Seller, at the time of payment or refund, whichever would result in a lower fiat/USD value of the refund (as the same may be conclusively determined by the Seller). No interest will accrue on the value of any refund and the Seller shall be entitled to charge a processing fee not exceeding 15% of the refund amount. At any time during the sale of TEA, the Seller may either temporarily suspend or permanently abort the token sale (whether relating to the private sale or public sale phase, or both) at its sole discretion without providing any reasons whatsoever. During any period of suspension or in the event that the token sale is aborted (whether relating to the private sale or public sale phase, or both), TEA will not be available for purchase. \
# Partial Invalidity If, at any time, any provision of these Terms is or becomes illegal, invalid or unenforceable in any respect under any law of any jurisdiction, neither the legality, validity or enforceability of the remaining provisions nor the legality, validity or enforceability of such provision under the law of any other jurisdiction will in any way be affected or impaired.
# Indemnity To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, you will indemnify, defend and hold harmless the Seller, each Group Entity, and their respective past, present and future employees, officers, directors, contractors, consultants, equity holders, suppliers, vendors, service providers, related companies, affiliates, agents, representatives, predecessors, successors and assigns (the Indemnified Parties) from and against all claims, demands, actions, damages, losses, costs and expenses (including legal fees on an indemnity basis) arising from or relating to: your purchase (whether through an intermediary or otherwise), holding or usage of TEA; your responsibilities or obligations under these Terms; your violation of these Terms; your violation of any rights of any other person or entity; or your subsequent transfer of TEA to any individuals or entities.
# Intellectual Property The Seller (or the relevant Group Entity, as the case may be) retains all right, title and interest in all of that entity's intellectual property, including, without limitation, ideas, concepts, discoveries, processes, code, compositions, formulae, methods, techniques, information, data, patents, models, rights to inventions, copyright and neighboring and related rights, moral rights, trademarks and service marks, business names and domain names, rights in get-up and trade dress, goodwill and the right to sue for passing off or unfair competition, rights in designs, rights in computer software, database rights, rights to use, and protect the confidentiality of, confidential information (including know-how and trade secrets), and all other intellectual property rights, in each case whether patentable, copyrightable or protectable in trademark, registered or unregistered, and including all applications and rights to apply for and be granted, renewals or extensions of, and rights to claim priority from, such rights and all similar or equivalent rights or forms of protection which subsist or will subsist now or in the future in any part of the world. You may not use any of the Seller’s (or the relevant Group Entity's) intellectual property for any reason whatsoever. # Release To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, you release the Seller and the other Indemnified Parties from responsibility, liability, claims, demands and/or damages (actual and consequential) of every kind and nature, known and unknown (including, but not limited to, claims of negligence), arising out of or related to disputes between users and the acts or omissions of third parties. You expressly waive any rights you may have under any statute or common law principles that would otherwise limit the coverage of this release to include only those claims which you may know or suspect to exist in your favour at the time of agreeing to this release. # Risks **Risk of Dissolution of the Seller, any Group Entity or the TEA platform** Start-up companies such as the Seller involve a high degree of risk. Financial and operating risks confronting start-up companies are significant, and the Seller is not immune to these. Start-up companies often experience unexpected problems in the areas of product development, marketing, financing, and general management, among others, which frequently cannot be solved. It is possible that, due to any number of reasons, including, but not limited to, an unfavourable fluctuation in the value of virtual and/or fiat currencies, decrease in the utility of TEA due to negative adoption of the Platform, the failure of commercial relationships, or intellectual property ownership challenges, the Platform may no longer be viable to operate and the Seller or any Group Entity may be dissolved. **Risks Arising from Lack of Governance Rights** Because TEA confers no governance rights of any kind with respect to the TEA platform or any Group Entity, all decisions involving the TEA platform or any Group Entity will be made by the relevant Group Entity at its sole and absolute discretion, including, but not limited to, decisions to discontinue the services and/or ecosystem on the TEA platform, to create and sell more TEA for use in the ecosystem on the Platform, or to sell or liquidate any Group Entity. These decisions could adversely affect the Platform and TEA you hold. **Failure to develop** There is the risk that the development of the Platform will not be executed or implemented as planned, for a variety of reasons, including without limitation the event of a decline in the prices of any digital asset, virtual currency or TEA, unforeseen technical difficulties, and shortage of development funds for activities. **Risks Involving Cloud Storage** As the Platform may provide a decentralised cloud storage service to individual and institutional clients, including users and applications, the Platform (and services thereon) are susceptible to a number of risks related to the storage of data in the cloud. The Platform (and services thereon) may involve the storage of large amounts of sensitive and/or proprietary information, which may be compromised in the event of a cyberattack or other malicious activity. Similarly, the Platform and/or services thereon may be interrupted and files may become temporarily unavailable in the event of such an attack or malicious activity. Because users can use a variety of hardware and software that may interface with the Platform, there is the risk that the Platform and/or services thereon may become unavailable or interrupted based on a failure of interoperability or an inability to integrate these third-party systems and devices that the Group Entities do not control. The risk that the Platform and/or services thereon may face increasing interruptions and the ecosystem on the Platform may face additional security vulnerabilities could adversely affect the Platform and ecosystem thereon, and therefore the future utility of any TEA that you hold. **Other risks** In addition to the aforementioned risks, there are other risks associated with your purchase, holding and usage of TEA, including those that the Seller cannot anticipate. Such risks may further materialise as unanticipated variations or combinations of the aforementioned risks. \
# Termination The agreement set out in these Terms will terminate upon the completion of all sales of TEA. The Seller reserves the right to terminate the agreement set out in these Terms, in its sole discretion, in the event of a breach by you of these Terms. Upon termination of these Terms: * all of your rights under these Terms immediately terminate; * you are not entitled to any refund of any amount paid whatsoever, save in the case where these Terms are terminated by the Seller without any breach by you of these Terms; # Data Privacy (i) The Seller (and its affiliates) will collect, use, process and disclose your information and personal data for providing its services and discharging of its legal duties and responsibilities, administration, customer services, crime (including tax evasion) prevention and detection, anti-money laundering, due diligence and veTEAcation of identity purposes (collectively, the Purposes).

The Seller may keep your information for such period as it may determine (which shall be no shorter than any mandatory period prescribed by law) to contact you about the TEA platform. You hereby consent to the Seller transferring your personal data to its affiliates or service providers for processing, and to recipients in countries which do not provide the same level of data protection as your jurisdiction if necessary for the Purposes. (ii) If you withdraw your consent to any or all use of your personal data, depending on the nature of your request, this may limit the scope of our services which the Seller is able to provide to you. Please contact us at (marking your email for the attention of “Data Protection Officer”). The Seller will endeavour to respond to your query / request within 30 days, and if that is not possible, the Seller will inform you of the time by which it will respond to you. (iii) You hereby warrant, represent and confirm to us and shall procure that with respect to any personal data of any individual (including, where applicable, your directors, partners, office holders, officers, employees, agents, shareholders and beneficial owners) (each, an Individual) disclosed to us in connection with these Terms, the Service Terms and Policies and/or the TEA sale or otherwise collected by us in the course of your relationship with us or any of our affiliates: * each Individual to whom the personal data relates has, prior to such disclosure or collection, agreed and consented to, and permitted you on its behalf to consent to, such disclosure as well as the collection, processing, use and disclosure of the Individual’s personal data by us for all purposes required by us in connection with these Terms and/or the TEA sale; * that each Individual has read and consented to the collection, processing, use and disclosure of the Individual’s personal data by us in accordance with the Purpose; and * any consent given pursuant to these Terms in relation to each Individual’s personal data shall survive death, incapacity, bankruptcy or insolvency of that Individual and the termination or expiration of these Terms and the Service Terms and Policies. (iv) If any Individual should withdraw his/her consent to any or all use of his/her personal data, then depending on the nature of the withdrawal request, the Seller may not be in a position to continue its relationship with you and/or sell TEA, and the Seller shall be entitled to its rights under these Terms and the Service Terms and Policies (without prejudice to our other rights and remedies at law against you). \
# Claims The Platform shall not be liable in any way or in any event in respect of any claim under these Terms if such claim was not made within the 6-month period commencing from the date that you receive TEA(the Claim Period). Any claim which has been made before the expiration of the Claim Period shall, if it has not been previously satisfied in full, settled or withdrawn, be deemed to have been withdrawn and shall become fully barred and unenforceable on the expiry of the period of six (6) months commencing from the date on which such claim was made, unless proceedings in respect thereof shall have been commenced against the Platform and for this purpose proceedings shall not be deemed to have been commenced unless they shall have been issued and served upon the Platform. For the avoidance of doubt, nothing in these Terms shall limit your obligation (at law or otherwise) to mitigate your loss in respect of any claim under these Terms, and you shall not be entitled to recover damages in respect of any claim (as the case may be) if, and to the extent that, you have already recovered damages in respect of the same fact or subject matter.
# Disclaimers You expressly acknowledge, understand and agree that you are purchasing (whether through an intermediary or otherwise), holding and/or using TEA token at your sole risk and discretion, and that TEA is provided, used and purchased on an “AS IS” and on an “AS AVAILABLE” basis without any representations, warranties, promises or guarantees whatsoever of any kind by the Seller or any Group Entity. Prior to making any decision to purchase (whether through an intermediary or otherwise), hold and/or use TEA, you shall conduct your own due diligence and rely only on your own examination and investigation thereof.
