ZooKeeper

## What Is ZooKeeper (ZOO)?

[ZooKeeper](https://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/zookeeper/) is an innovative multi-chain dApp, currently available on [Avalanche](https://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/avalanche/) and [Wanchain](https://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/wanchain/), that uses ZOONFTs to boost liquidity mining.
ZooKeeper was created in order to fuel the [ZooEcosystem](https://Zoo.One) with liquidity. It brings you a new and interesting farming experience, leading you to experience higher mining rewards and richer and more interesting NFT gameplay.

Zookeeper has its own utility token ($ZOO) distributed as farming rewards to DEX Liquidity Providers (LPs), as well as a wrapped version (vZOO) used for cross chain.

## Who Are the Founders of ZooKeeper?

The ZooKeeper Team is composed of crypto enthusiasts and long-time blockchain users who are well known in certain communities as well as experienced developers.
Current partners include: Avalanche, Trader Joe, Pangolin, Wanchain and WanSwap.

## What Makes ZooKeeper Unique?

ZooKeeper was created in order to fuel the **ZooEcosystem** with liquidity.
It is an innovative dApp which uses ZooNFTs to boost liquidity mining. Users have access to these NFTs which have a real use case - enhancing LP farming, on top of their inherent trading possibilities.
 
On ZooKeeper you can make use of $ZOO tokens in many ways such as farming (The Zoo), staking for NFTs (The Expedition), in the creation of more powerful NFTs (Crafting), or making use of them in trading NFTs (The Market).
 
ZooEcosystem is a blockchain gaming-oriented ecosystem with a multi-chain focus and multi community spirit.
 
It provides:
**Multi-chain** access - farm $ZOO tokens and trade ZooNFTs on several networks (currently available on Avalanche and Wanchain, but more to come);

Access to an **NFT Marketplace** - trade ZooGames NFTs and more on OpenZoo;

**Multi-chain gaming** - connect to ZooGames from any available chain and play fun games.

## How Many ZooKeeper (ZOO) Coins Are There in Circulation?

Since ZooKeeper employs a dynamic market cap strategy, the total supply of ZOO is flexible. ZOO tokens are being mined at a rate of 10 ZOO per block without pre-mining or presales of the token. The exact market cap figure depends on the boost percentage from NFTs, as well as the lockup periods by users staking ZOO. Therefore, the minimum total amount of ZOO will be 155 million and the maximum amount 393 million, which will only be known after all ZOO have been mined.

The token allocation is as follows:

* 77% are reserved for farming
* 9% are kept for the foundation
* 8% go to marketing
* 3% go to advisors
* 3% will be used to purchase wanTokens chosen by the community

**Note:** These are the Tokenomics of the ZOO Token on the Wanchain Network.

## How Is the ZooKeeper Network Secured?

ZooKeeper is built on [Wanchain](https://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/wanchain/), itself a fork of [Ethereum](https://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/ethereum/). In contrast to Ethereum, Wanchain uses a [Proof-of-stake](https://coinmarketcap.com/alexandria/glossary/proof-of-stake-pos) [consensus mechanism](https://coinmarketcap.com/alexandria/glossary/consensus-mechanism), where the network’s validation nodes are divided into vouchers, storemen, and validators. Vouchers verify cross-chain transactions, storemen manage locked accounts, and validators perform regular verifications. 

**Official audit** has been processed by **HAECHI** and can be found here: [HAECHI Audit](https://github.com/ZooFarming/Audit/blob/main/%5BHAECHI%20AUDIT%5D%20Zoo%20Farming%20Security%20Audit%20Report_v1.1.pdf/)

Wanchain

Wanchain is a distributed ledger that allows for cross-chain transactions and the interoperability of multiple chains. Although Wanchain facilitates transactions between blockchains, it is also a stand-alone blockchain that runs autonomously. The protocol acts as a distributed ledger that processes and maintains records of cross-chain transactions.

Transactions on Wanchain do not only occur between different public blockchains but between private chains as well. As an Ethereum (ETH) fork, Wanchain enjoys some of the properties of the Ethereum blockchain. The protocol securely and autonomously processes applications via smart contracts.  The use cases for Wanchain include decentralized exchanges (DEXs), lending and borrowing platforms, stablecoins, crowdfunding, multi-currency payments and settlements.

The platform is totally decentralized and requires no custodian party to manage or confirm transactions. Unlike other cross-chain systems, Wanchain does not rely on a third-party platform to authenticate transactions. The locked account mechanism is used to secure and manage accounts on the network, eliminating third-party interferences.

Splinterlands is a digital, collectible card game based on blockchain technology and inspired by games like Magic the Gathering and Hearthstone, where players build a collection of cards with different attributes and battle other players in skills-based matches. It is a game where players can buy, sell and trade their digital assets just as they would with physical trading cards games such as Magic the Gathering, Pokémon and Yu-Gi-Oh!

Splinterlands was created as players lost the ability to truly own their assets (or trading cards) once games went digital. With blockchain technology, it allows players to own and trade their digital assets freely once again. It also allows the game to have true scarcity and transparency, which means all cards on Splinterlands have a verifiable supply and historical record.

Players battle other players by choosing ranked or practice battles. With ranked battles, players can increase their rating. There is no downside to playing ranked battles as a beginner since players with a rating below 100 do not lose ranking points. Battles take place between players of similar strength. When matched up with an opponent, both players choose a set of six monster cards and one summoner card for the battle to destroy all their opponent’s monster cards and win the battle.

Although the game is free-to-play, players need to purchase the summoner’s spellbook for $10 if they want to unlock the game in full. With the summoner’s spellbook, players get access to their account keys and unlock the ability to earn Dark Energy Crystals, which can be redeemed for real currency.

Splinterlands started in May 2018 and launched Splintershards (SPS) – its governance token for the SPS decentralized autonomous organization (DAO) at the end of July 2021. It concluded a $3.6M private token sale for 6.6% of the SPS token supply. After reaching 100,000 players in its first three years, it added another 50,000 in just over a month from June 2021. Splinterland plans to build out its game in the latter half of 2021, with oracle integration planned for Q1 2022.

In Gods Unchained players completely own their digital items, giving them the freedom to trade, sell and use their cards any way they like – just like owning real, tangible cards.

GODS is an ERC-20 token used as premium currency within the GU ecosystem. The tokens will be used to:

Create an NFT.

Used within the marketplace and for in-game purchases.

Distributed as a reward to players.

Aavegotchi (GHST) is the governance token of the Aavegotchi NFT Gaming protocol. GHST token holders receive voting power in the AavegotchiDAO, which oversees all aspects of the protocol, Aavegotchi’s flagship game the Gotchiverse, and Aavegotchi NFTs.

Aavegotchis themselves are pixelated ghosts backed by the ERC-721 token standard. The Aavegotchi NFTs have dynamic metadata that changes over time through user interaction.

An Aavegotchi’s value and rarity is determined by its collateral stake, traits and wearables.

Collateral stake is based on the innovative ERC721 Aavegotchi NFT that manages an escrow contract holding Aave-backed ERC20 collateral or "aToken," which generates yield via Aave's LendingPool. Traits are based on random traits upon birth, kinship and experience (XP).

The protocol is called Aavegotchi as a nod to Aave, which translates to “ghost” in Finnish, and is powered by the Aave protocol, one of the leading lending protocol in DeFi. The token ticker also cleverly spells out “ghost,” minus the vowel.

Efinity is a cross-chain NFT platform developed by Enjin and built on Polkadot. Efinity was created as the next generation blockchain for digital assets with the aim of adapting to the challenges of the world of non-fungible tokens (NFTs), according to the project.

The main specialization of the Efinity project is the NFT space. With the protocol, traders and gamers can create, distribute, transfer, sell and buy NFTs. Efinity aims to remove barriers to entry into the NFT space/decentralized gaming, and to simplify user experience and digital asset governance.

Efinity Token powers the entire Efinity ecosystem, EFI aims to prioritize the generation, transfer and purchase of tokens using an inter-chain infrastructure of protocols resulting in lower transaction fees. As for incentives, rewards on PoW blockchains with NFT functionality go to miners who create/trade tokens, thereby forming a community.

One of the long-term goals of Efinity is to become a hub for both fungible and non-fungible tokens, accepting tokens from any other chain, facilitating the pricing and exchange of NFTs, increasing transaction volume, and creating network effects.

In December 2021, the project won the Polkadot parachain auction, and in March 2022, Enjin launched their flagship parachain Efinity on the Polkadot Relay Chain — a blockchain platform that provides a decentralized parachain network where people havecontrol over their data and identity.
