Recently, NIM Network launched the first RollApp on Dymension and submitted a mainnet proposal to the community. As soon as this news came out, the long-awaited airdrop expectation immediately attracted the attention of the community. At the same time, RollApp on Dymension has also launched a competition recently, and the RollApp War is about to begin. So, what is NIM as RollApp, what is its utility, and how will its token economics be distributed? Will the modular track usher in airdrop bombing due to the emergence of many RollApps? The “draft season” is approaching, which RollApp projects will be the first to be successful? For this series of questions, let’s start with NIM Network.
NIM is the first RollApp on the Cosmos ecological modular settlement layer Dymension. It is supported by Celestia DA and the execution environment is EVM. RollApp is a combination of Rollup and App, a high-performance modular blockchain on Dymension dedicated to specific applications. NIM hands consensus and settlement to Dymension, and data to Celestia. It can share economic security with these two networks, and it only needs to focus on the execution of the application itself. NIM is such a RollApp, which aims to create an ultimate environment for AI games. It can be understood as an AI game application chain focused on building game applications.
NIM's future planning is divided into three stages: the first stage is to establish an AI game alliance; the second stage is to build a unified game application; the third stage is to build the NIM flywheel, allowing everyone including pledgers, governors and partners to become part of the economic cycle part, enhancing the native capabilities of new game applications.
Another interesting point about the launch of NIM on the main network is that the RollApp project team must submit a draft in the governance forum, and must submit an on-chain proposal after 7 days. It can only be upgraded to the Dymension network after it is finally approved by the community vote. Deployed to mainnet. According to the RollApp proposal template suggested by Dymension, the RollApp proposal must include a description of the project, introduction of team members, whether the project has native tokens, token allocation, roadmap, social media and other details. Therefore, any launch of Rollup will be very decentralized, and users’ understanding of the project will be more fully transparent. Community users’ suggestions and votes for RollApp may also play an additional role in promoting the development of the application.
Currently, Dymension has launched "The RollApp Draft" competition, where RollApp developers can present their projects to the community on the forum. Approved RollApps will receive funding, community support, community awareness and liquidity incentives, multiple incubators and hackers Marathon will participate in The Draft as an established mentoring program on top of an open framework. In other words, many projects have been deployed and tested on the testnet, so in the future on the mainnet, we will see more and more RollApps appearing, as well as potential airdrop rewards for DYM stakers.
There is an undercurrent of RollApp War, and I believe many teams are gearing up to try to compete and win community recognition. In the future, solutions based on modularization will inevitably lead to fierce competition in different tracks, because everyone hopes to be the first to run out, so that Web3 can truly conquer users with applications. But from another perspective, this war may not be a zero-sum game, but a positive-sum game, because RollApp’s opponent may no longer be Web3, but Web2.
Finally, back to today's NIM, what exactly is the AI game it is going to make, how will it innovate Web3 games, and can large-scale adoption be achieved? We don’t know, but new narratives will always have new expectations. What do you think? Welcome to share your opinions in the comment area! 😊
