Near Future is NEAR’s first evolving Tribal RPG. NF: Primal is the first chapter in this brand new evolving universe, with a hand-drawn set of 3,500 unique ‘post-historic’ Nearbot NFTs at its core. Made possible by the NEAR Foundation and powered by Web3 Design & Marketing Collective Zebu Digital, the Near Future series aims to evolve the NEAR NFT ecosystem with a tribal role-playing game (RPG), the first iteration of which will be built to run natively in Discord. The game invites the community to shape the game-world’s history together through their collective decisions. With its innovative “deflationary evolution” mechanic and multi-year vision, Near Future will reward early discoverers and incentivise long-term engagement. NEAR Near Future is built on the NEAR blockchain. NEAR provides simple, secure and scalable technology with the aim to empower users & holders alike to invent and explore new experiences throughout the ecosystem. NEAR runs jointly with Ethereum, Cosmos and more to facilitate the free flow of assets and communication between networks to benefit the community. NEAR prides itself for its high speeds, progressive UX and extremely low fees, creating a space that is prepared to eliminate the Web3 adoption barriers. The Mission The Zebu team is on a mission to demonstrate NEAR as a top-tier NFT ecosystem with an engaging, ever-evolving and multi-year NFT-as-a Service platform. They aim to empower the community to collaboratively build the Near Future universe together whilst rewarding them for doing so in many ways. The Core 1 New World. 4 Classes. 8 Hidden Attributes. 7 Tribes. 3,500 Evo.I Nearbot NFTs. Evo.I Nearbot NFTs for NEAR: Available on 1st March at https://nearfuture.world/ Classes’ attributes can be developed over time based on the player’s action within the Tribal RPG. At the heart of it all, Near Future is built as an open ecosystem to be governed and evolved by the community. NEAR itself promotes collaboration rather than competition which makes it stand out from other blockchains. Near Future will be introducing voting rights in the Discord RPG game. The beauty about it is, not only will Nearbot holders be allowed to partake in the voting, but holders of other partnered NFT projects on the NEAR Blockchain will also be able to participate in building Near Future through their unique partial-voting system. How it works Zebu have partnered up with TENK DAO to ensure a smooth and secure mint of their Evo.I Nearbots. TENK have proven themselves as market leaders after their exceptional work on Near Misfits, Near Meerkat Kingdom, Near Tiger Academy and Mr. Brown.
