What is Islander?

Islander is an upcoming online-learn-to-earn and decentralized affiliate marketing platform that:

● Revolutionizes affiliate marketing through NFT-powered solutions
● Uses an innovative way of learn-to-earn
● Backed by multiple top crypto VCs and communities

Islander introduces Islander token (ISA), a versatile currency with multiple purposes: it can help other crypto projects easily find more supporters, it can help influencers increase their income,and it can also benefit crypto adopters and content creators financially, all thanks to Non-Fungible Tokens (NFTs).

Islander also provides easy-to-use and intuitive tools for implementing and managing users’ own projects. The platform will also offer full support for developers, with powerful open-source software development kits (SDKs) including wallets, plugins, customizable quests, management apps and a payment gateway platform.

What is the name of Islander Token?

The name of the token is ISA. For further information, please read our article where you can find: Token Metrics, Token Utilities and much more:

What are the use cases of Islander Token (ISA)?

Crypto Projects and Influencers will need ISA to create their quests and affiliate campaigns respectively. Crypto Enthusiasts, i.e. followers of a crypto projects, can earn ISA by supporting their favorite projects. ISA is also used to proceed transactions, and a proportion of the token will be gradually burned, hence increasing the rarity as long as the market demand of it.

After launch, we will push ISA onto other blockchains as well, the first one will be BSC, with Fantom, Tron, Polkadot… following. The next stage will be staking and NFT market, boosting the liquidity of ISA while keeping the controlled amount of ISA in the market to benefit our supporters.

What are the benefits of using Islander for content creators?

Islander is not meant exclusively for crypto projects, its model can also be applied to content publishing. We call content creators “Merchants” in Islander, and instead of giving out “bounties”, they can use cryptocurrencies (including ISA) to create NFT tickets in the form of different items (clothes, accessories, gadgets, etc.). Users are then able to buy these items to get access to exclusive content created by Merchants.

What does the end goal look like for Islander?

The endgoal in mind for us right now is to build a decentralized world facilitating knowledge transfer and accelerating mass crypto adoption.

In the long term we would like to create an Island-Verse where every player, from crypto projects, influencers to individuals, can connect, exchange values and gain benefits in a gamified economy. Users can reclaim land, own and trade NFTs, build communities, and earn crypto rewards by playing and contributing to the development of the Island-Verse.

What is the biggest difference between the Play-to-Earn model used by many other platforms and the Learn-to-Earn model developed by Islander?

The biggest difference between Play-to-Earn and Learn-to-Earn is, the former focuses on entertainment and some financial benefits coming along, while the latter emphasizes on knowledge transfer with also fiancial benefits. However, Islander’s approach to knowledge transfer is not thorugh textbooks and exams but gamification.

For example, on Islander, Crypto Projects can create quests (a prominent element we take from video games) with uinque narrations and rewards to engage with their supporters. We also have ranking and leaderboards to promote the most active projects, influencers, content creators… on our platform. Our aim is not to create a game, but make investing and marketing an intriguing game.

What are the visions and objectives of Islander in the years of 2021–2022?

The first and foremost objective that we want to achieve in 2021 is to launch our product on Avalanche ecosystem (by the begin of November). At the moment, we already onboarded some projects such as Kalao, Colony, YAY Games… They will have their own customized islands on Islanders.

By the end of 2021, we will expand Islander’s functionality to introduce NFTs and also push the platform to BSC and other ecosystems such as Fantom, Polkadot, Tron… In 2022, we want to integrate Islander to Spiderum, a content publishing platform to experiment our first step into the existing content publishing industry. If the pilot project succeeds, we will examine more opportunities in the future.

Our vision for this period is to become a pioneer and market leader of the crypto affiliate marketing market and carve a new path for content creators to benefit from their own creations.

Why is Islander on Avalanche? What makes Avalanche Islander’s first choice instead of other blockchains such as BSC or ETH?

Avalanche is one of the most emerging ecosystems in the industry. They have an awful lot of innovative and exciting projects, built by experts from many fields. Islander is funded by AVATAR (Avalanche Asian Fund) and the project has have been receiving tremendous supports from the team, both financially and operationally. One of the most important aspects for this cooperation is, our goals of a sustainable affeliate marketing align. We also share the same vision of a platform that can support and promote other projects within the ecosystem.

Other blockchains such as BSC or ETH don’t lack of projects, but what they don’t provide is the time investment and the early consultantcy needed for their newly invested projects. Besides, other types of fees and scalability are important factors for us to establish our first steps on Avalanche.

Will there be an IDO/ When will IDO be?/ Will you have IDO?/ etc.

We are certain that we will go public by the end of this year. For the upcoming updates on this matter, please follow us on:
