Vision & Mission

We have a motto which is TO INSPIRE YOUR CURIOSITY and that’s where we want to position ourselves, to become the global puzzle game hub for the curious mind.

We are born with a curious heart but as we grow older, we may take things for granted and never be curious anymore. Without curiosity, one is unable to explore the unknown, your life will be predictable and hence the lack of serendipity in your life.

Everyone craves some moments of excitement in their life, especially the working class who has a mundane lifestyle of stress at work. We came from that hole before and have been looking for ways to break out. Puzzle game is one of the tools for us to have recreation, focus, and have fun. In addition, many of the games are easy to start and have a certain level of challenge to get you stick to it, allowing yourself a me-time with your mind and soul.

Just imagine what kind of world we can have if we are always able to hop into treasure hunting no matter where we are and start scavenging for clues and crack our heads to find the ultimate treasure. On the contrary, our life itself is as if another treasure hunt where we are always on the move to search for the “purpose” of life. Atocha Protocol is there to encourage you to become brave embrace the “change” of life, be curious, and always be there for the challenge!

This is a proposal for Atocha Protocol to create a Near Guild with the following purposes:

Not only they helped us in the technical aspects on building and running the appchain, their ecosystem is very supportive and had given us support like exposure to VCs, community engagement, tokenomics and mechanism advisory, and more. In addition, we also participated in the Octopus Accelerator Program where we are one of the Octopus Star Prize winner, getting a generous $50,000 grant from Octopus Network.
