1. Project Overview

$villain aims to revitalize the Web3 market by forming a community-driven project utilizing innovative technologies.
Centered around the digital collectible "MUTANTALIENSVILLAIN" and the governance token "$VLN", $villain also operates as a luxury streetwear brand bridging Web3 and the real world.
Our mission is to introduce the appeal of Web3 to users who have yet to explore this domain, utilizing apparel to foster engagement and promote participation in the ecosystem. We aim to create a sustainable and scalable community.

2. Challenges and Solutions

3. Providing mechanisms for users to achieve stable, long-term profits.

Solutions Proposed by $villain

1. Community Building
• By leveraging social media, the community will spread the appeal of Web3, attracting new users and fostering further growth.
2. Ecosystem Monetization
• Utilizing the liquidity and mutual value formation of digital collectibles and $VLN tokens, we provide mechanisms for participants to profit.
3. Engaging Approach
• By introducing Web3 through an accessible fashion brand, we create an environment where its appeal can be directly experienced.

3. Commercial Use Policy

$villain offers Digital Collectible owners the right to commercialize their assets under the following conditions:

Conditions for Commercial Use

5. DN-404 Standard and Technical Details

DN-404 Standard: The Foundation of $villain
$villain features an innovative system built on the DN-404 Ethereum standard. This standard tightly links NFTs and the governance token $VLN, enabling seamless interaction between the two.
Mechanism: 1,000 $VLN = 1 NFT
• Each NFT is tied to 1,000 $VLN.
• Examples:
1,000 $VLN = 1 NFT
10,000 $VLN = 10 NFTs
This mechanism ensures that NFTs are directly linked to the supply and circulation of $VLN tokens, maintaining the stability and value of the $villain ecosystem.
