Seeing YGG as a 'gaming guild' is a narrow perspective. Let's change our viewpoint: YGG is building and operating a 'digital nation' based on contribution and consensus. Here, games are industries, players are citizens, on-chain activities are tax and contribution proofs, and $YGG is the 'citizenship certificate' of this nation.
1. Land and Industry (Infrastructure and Game Ecology)
The 'land' of this nation is composed of the blockchain game worlds it connects. Collaborative games like Axie and Pixels are like distinct 'economic special zones' or 'resource provinces.' YGG's core protocol and cross-chain capabilities serve as the 'transportation and legal framework' connecting these provinces, ensuring that assets and people (players) can flow freely and safely.
2. Citizens and contributions (players and behavioral value)
You are a “citizen” of this realm. Your nationality and rights are defined by the $YGG you hold and your on-chain reputation. But citizenship is not just about holding; it is about contribution:
· As “workers”: You “produce” (gold farming) in games through scholarships, creating value.
· As “builders”: You complete tests, create content, and maintain the community through YGG Play, participating in “public services” and “infrastructure development.”
· As “investors”: You stake $YGG in the treasury (Vaults), entrusting capital to the nation’s “sovereign fund” for investing in future industries and sharing in growth dividends.
3. Governance and federation (DAO and SubDAO structure)
This realm practices a “federal system.” YGG's main DAO is the “federal government,” responsible for the constitution (core protocols), national defense (treasury security), and diplomacy (strategic cooperation). Each SubDAO and regional guild acts as highly autonomous “state governments” or “cities.” They govern based on local culture (like YGG SEA) or industry characteristics (like a SubDAO focused on a specific game), possessing a high degree of autonomy. This structure maintains unified values and branding while releasing marginal flexibility and creativity.
4. Economy and currency (token models and value cycles)
$YGG tokens are the “legal tender” and “equity” of this realm. They serve three functions:
· Payment and settlement: Used for paying service fees, participating in the treasury, etc.
· Governance and voting: Exercise the political rights of citizens to determine the allocation of national resources and future directions.
· Value capture: Share in the fruits of the economic growth of the entire “digital realm.” As the number of “provinces” (games) increases and the value of contributions from “citizens” (players) grows, the rights represented by $YGG naturally increase in value.
So, what is the ultimate narrative of YGG?
It is not just about helping players make money. It is an experiment: Can we use code and token economics to build a collaborative community in the digital world that is more efficient, fairer, and more inclusive than real-world nations?
Here, your contributions are precisely recorded, your rights are clearly defined, and your voice can be heard through governance. You are no longer a replaceable “user” or “employee” in a traditional company, but a “digital citizen” with complete rights and responsibilities.
While others are still discussing the next “gold farming adventure,” the citizens of YGG are thinking: How can we make our shared “digital realm” more prosperous, resilient, and full of opportunities?
This may be the most profound revolution of Web3 games. You are not just playing a game; you are participating in nation-building.
