Unbound AMA SUMMARY
What made The Unbound team decide to enter the metaverse? Tell us about the behind-the-scenes of the project and explain what inspirations or special moments led to the creation of this project, can you also briefly tell us what characterises your project?
Igor Plusa
You know, we, the core team, are a group of friends who have been in crypto for quite few years already. We have done many different things: community building, investing, advisory, dev… All of us come from different backgrounds as well — developers, marketing specialists, entrepreneurs.
One day we realised that together we have a very specific set of skills… That could allow us to actually start a metaverse project. That’s when the brainstorming started — first we came up with a gamified metaverse focused on individuals but after some time we noticed that there is a niche in business metaverse — that’s when The Unbound started developing our unique Metaverse-as-a-Service solutions! You can learn more about that in our knowledge base:

Teamwork and friendship is a very important part of any project, I know from experience that when team members treat each other like friends then even the biggest problems can be overcome and the project will always benefit from such friendship
Could you talk more broadly about the benefits of organising e-commerce activities in the metaverse, especially regarding accessibility, time and money savings for both the company and customers?
Igor Plusa
Oh yeah! I love that question! That’s why we do what we do.
Once we started tinkering with the metaverse-as-a-service solutions we identified a number of problems in traditional businesses: location and time dependence, high costs, high carbon footprint, to name a few.
Moving businesses and events to metaverse solves most of those problems. As an example, let’s talk about exhibition in metaverse:
- it’s easily accesible anywhere in the world — you don’t have to travel to SIngapore anymore. You only need to travel to your couch and take you laptop with you!
- Almost no carbon footprint — you only login to the metaverse
- the logistic costs are much lower, no travel and accomodations expenses.
And that is just tip of the iceberg!
When we speak about mCommerce (metaverse commerce) we also get access to never before soon tools — imagine that you are buying some clothes — not only you can check the quality, btu you can trace back the whole history of the fabric used to manufacture it, check where exactly it was manufactured…. the possibilities are endless!
Btw. Go to our website https://theunbound.io download the client and see for yourself — you can already explore our metaverse a bit.
Piotr
It’s true, for a long time now we have been seeing the development of the metaverse and a kind of transformation of human life, from the natural environment to the technological world. It is worth highlighting here the development of AI as one of these elements, everything is starting to take place online instead of in the real world, and this means that the direction you are taking is the right one.
Suppose you meet the average cryptocurrency investor, how would you convince them to invest in your project, what do you think makes your project stand out in such a way that it is better than the existing competition?
Igor Plusa
This is actually a very simple question for me and I like it!
Yes, the metaverse is very competition heavy… but most of those metaverse are almost the same — gamified open space worlds with a lot exploring. Although it’s fun, not everyone has time for it!
This is why Unbound is so special — we deliver custom created spaces for our clients and each of them is a separate instance. You login and you drop right inside the place that you want to visit! We deliver actual business solutions and thanks to this our metaverse is actually useful. THat is one of the bigger problems of many metaverses out there — they are simply boring and there is nothing to do there.
You could tell our community more about who represents your project and your experience in the crypto industry, this will certainly build more trust among potential clients, and it is crucial, especially before making an investment
Igor Plusa
Sure!
The core team that I mentioned before consists of 5 people:
Marcin Frankowski — a person that you could describe a “serial entrepreneur” with great operational and organisational skills. He is the silent mastermind behind most of our actions! He has been in crypto the longest from all of us, I believe like 8 years already?
Michał Maciejewski — our CTO, over 10 years of experience in IT. He is an incredible developer with brilliant and innovative mind. He’s always looking for the best solutions, not just choosing the most popular option.
Damian Pawlak — another great developer and project manager with huge knowledge about crypto markets. Not only he holds all the “development power” in his hands and leads the devteam but also helps us with his insights about the market.
Daniel Sobczak — the gamedev leader with huge experience in game development. He specialilses in VR technology which is a huge asset to us in regard to the metaverse. An extremely thorough and diligent person at his work, which saves us a lot of bugs, haha!
On top of that, we are Web3 believers, we are in crypto for many years already and firmy believe that this tech is the future!

Please explain why it is worth having a $UN token, what a user of your platform will be able to do with it, what its usefulness is and what benefits it will bring in the future.
Igor Plusa
We are just 8 days away from getting our hands on $UN! It has many different use-cases but in general it is that basic currency in Unbound ecosystem. What it does, among many other things it is used for:
NFT Minting
In-Metaverse Events Ticketing
Metaverse-as-a-Service Event Organization
Gamification elements.
You can read more about it here:

And the NFT MINTING! This is huge because we have just launched an NFT collection of Unbound Premium Pass, that unlock many useful perks to owners… Trust me, it will be WORTH holding those! More info here:

Can you share your future plans? What does your roadmap look like? The new year is about to start, so surely everyone involved will want to know more about your future!
Igor Plusa
Actually we are just updating our roadmap to include more details on future activities! You can expect the new version to drop before IDO.
But we do expect 2024 to be very busy. We have already released the first publc version of our metaverse but we are constantly developing new features. We will be updating the metaverse through our launcher to streamline the user experience. Once you download it, you never have to worry again about updates — it will do it for you
On top of that, we are working on few business solutions for our clients right now but unfortunately I can’t really say too much here because of the NDAs signed… But trust me, it will be spectacular!
Piotr
Then we look forward to a refreshed version of the roadmap, I’m curious to see what you have cooked up for us all!
Tell us more about your marketing plans, this is important in any project because good marketing is needed for great publicity, and publicity is an important part of attracting new investors today.
Igor Plusa
At the very end, I would like you to say why you decided on a listing with a fairly small market cap? Only 126k~ that’s brave!
Igor Plusa
But seriously, it is well adjusted to our current development status and plans for the future. The FDV is 12kk $ but reaching it — is well spread in time. I believe this market cap is very fair and healthy for development.
Thank you guys for hosting me here today!

Winners Questions
1. Ser Defi
What strategies does The Unbound use in creating and managing virtual stores and marketplaces to generate revenue through design, manufacturing, and hosting fees?
Igor Pulsa
Hey, good question!
Actually we offer quite unique approach to that. Most metaverse projects offer set of tools for companies to develop theeir own spaces… Which is problematic, because said company must make more investment and effort to develop it.
On the other hand, we offer handmade tailored solutions for our clients. WE design evertyhing according to client needs. The difference in experience can be compared to buying a ready-made suit in H&M and getting a custom suit made by a talented craftsman on your demand.
2. Oliva Jacobson
Non-crypto user is very important for mainstream adoption. How you are planning to attract non-crypto users towards your project? Is there any upcoming partnership that will brings non-crypto user and real-use case?
Igor Pulsa
Haha, yeah, that is right! Actually, non-crypto users are our MAIN focus! With our metaverse-as-a-service solutions we provide tools to bring traiditonal web2 companies to metaverse together with their communities and clients! So our app is perfect tool for bridging the gap between Web2 and Web3!
3. Galvin Pham
Revenue is an important aspect for all projects to survive and maintain the project/company. How have you been able to build a complete project and what is the way to generate profit/revenue of the token? What is the income model?
Igor Pulsa
This is very important actually!
Ever since we started building the revenue streams were our main and first focus because we need to build a sustainanle company. This is Why we have revenue streams coming from both traditional web2 methods (whole metaverse as a service model!) as well as web3 — such as NFT mints etc.
