[Whitelisting] Pumpopoly

As mentioned previously in discord, Pumpopoly users are finding it difficult to exchange tokens on Ref. I’ve added built in features to help users manually add the token to their Ref account, but it still isn’t adequate. Users are confused by the process on Ref.

Project Description

Quoted from https://pumpopoly.com

Basics
Pumpopoly is a virtual real estate simulator reminiscent of classic real estate board games. Playable on all devices, the game features pixel art on an animated HTML5 canvas. The design objectives are simple: Provide players and promoters a fun and entertaining way to collect tokens passively.

Player movement
Players collect a salary from the treasury on every move. However, if they arrive at another player’s land they must pay rent to the owner for the privilege of parking. Parking is free at all lands owned by the City of Pumpopolis.

Buildings
There are currently five property types within the game: vacant, hovel, small townhouse, large townhouse and executive tower. All property types have 256 pixel art variations. City lands are sold as vacant lots. Players may upgrade their land by building improvements. Each improvement provides an exponential increase in rent.

Level up
Players must have a qualifying in-game credit score to build improvements on their land. In-game credit scores are determined by the number of lands owned and the total number of active invitees. Additionally, players earn 50% commissions on all city land purchased by their invitees.

Tokens
Pumpopoly players can choose to sell their land on the in-game market or export their property to a non-fungible token. NFTs may be sold on external third-party markets.

All purchases within the game are denominated in native PUMPOPOLY fungible tokens. Fungible tokens are issued solely from the game contract. Similar to land prices, the price of PUMPOPOLY tokens sold by the game contract increases at an exponential rate as they are issued. Players may optionally choose to buy or sell their fungible tokens at third-party distributed asset exchanges. A natural market equilibrium will emerge as players discount the increasing price of PUMPOPOLY fungible tokens on third-party party distributed asset exchanges.

Liquidity

A small pool has been established already. Please find it here: Ref Finance

Users are having difficulty interacting with this pool as mentioned above. This prevents growth of the pool and trading on Ref.

Github
No.

Additional Remarks

Our users and staff look forward to participating in the Ref community.

Pumpopoly is a product first, user driven project. The game is active and released. All funding has been derived from in-game activity. No grants or VC funds have been utilized.

The current UX/whitelisting situation is preventing users from participating on Ref.

Thank you.

Bumping post as requested

Hey guys - as part of the Ref Core team and reading through and only seeing a “Bumping post”, we will need to be seeing more from you.

new details on your market growth and roadmap since the last post, what’s your strategy, any plans for pools and farms?

The post is a year old, clearly it isn’t up to date nor accurate, this is crypto and matters change quickly.

I am speaking on behalf of the DAO who will be more comfortable for us all to vote favourably with added details. At this stage, it would be a potential refusal.

Thank you for your attention to this whitelisting proposal. The community has been waiting patiently. I look forward to answering any questions you may have about Pumpopoly.

Although the post is over a year old, it remains 100% accurate, the same as the day it was posted. Pumpopoly has been consistently active in the NEAR gaming ecosystem. Please review the link to our dappradar page for more information. Note that token transactions and sales are not properly charted.

Unlike other projects, our activity is 100% natural. Pumpopoly is driven by organically obtained users. Our activity is not funded by grant-backed prize schemes. We look forward to increasing our in-game and on-market activity with this whitelisting approval. Organic builders deserve to operate on an equal footing in the “Open Web” NEAR ecosystem.

Consistency is a recurring theme you will find when you take the time to review Pumpopoly. Our dynamic token issuance continues according to the price curve defined in the smart contract. Although the number of tokens issued has increased along with the issuance price, the curve has not changed.

All purchases of new issuance drive the price higher along the curve. A single bulk buyer of Pumpopoly tokens could dramatically increase the issuance price.

Unlike other projects, Pumpopoly tokens have not dumped. Pumpopoly’s users and creator did not disappear during down cycles. Our community is strong.

Pumpopoly players bought back tokens after a recent user’s successful exit. Again, no grants or VC funds were used in this process. Instead we offered land airdrops to participating users. We look forward to offering more trading incentives and activities on Ref Finance. Whitelisting would make this easier and less confusing for our users.

Pumpopoly’s property prices have increased steadily since launch. Lands are added dynamically to the game to ensure the expected value of “Drive & Claim” remains positive. Similar to tokens, these lands are priced along a curve. Players may discount the rising curve when selling.

Bear or bull, Pumpopoly remains consistent. Players stay engaged due to the mathematical certainties in the game’s model. Members of the NEAR community should follow Pumpopoly on Twitter to keep up to date with the latest developments.

Pumpopoly’s motto is, “Number go up is a normal and healthy desire”.

Yes, the numbers have changed by increasing. The course and trajectory remain the same.

We are one of the most active projects in the NEAR gaming ecosystem. No fake, botted or “developer paid” transactions are used to boost our activity metrics. This is not a “Free to play” game. Pumpopoly players either bought land or received it in an airdrop. Several projects supported by the NF or other insiders cannot match our organic metrics.

Pumpopoly has never teased users with new features or false promises. We delivered a working dapp and NFT collection without pre-sale on March 18th, 2022. New features, bug fixes and Discord support have been consistently provided. Announcements will follow when new features are ready for testing, not before.

Roadmaps are only promises. Pumpopoly displays a proven track record and a game model dictated by mathematical certainties.

Farming proposals can be considered, but we remain committed to protecting user value.

We hope to participate in the NEAR ecosystem on an equal and open playing field. Few if any projects can claim the above.
