Anime 2.0 ( Part 4/5)
The @animecoin Bull Case
Early in March, Azuki announced Animechain in partnership with Arbitrum. On the tech front, stylus by Arbitrum allows developers to write smart contracts in Rust, C, and C++, alongside with being EVM compatible. This way, Animechain will be able to tap into a larger developer pool to build on top of it.
Today there are over 100+ EVM based chains that have been deployed ,thanks to RaaS providers such as Conduit & Caldera, but over 95% of them struggle to retain liquidity & users once the incentives are removed.
For an on-chain economy to thrive, you also need cultural capital, and Azuki has plenty of it. There are over 175+ builders leveraging the Azuki IP to build products & services, with an estimated participation rate of 4.5%, and zero incentives.
This is a strong indicator of the underlying health of the on-chain economy as well as the underlying IP that bring the community together.
Animechain — “Endless Inventory of Content” as the new engine for economic activity
As Azuki expands to new audiences, and becomes the defacto distribution layer for new & upcoming Anime IP in the crypto economy, there will be massive demand for blockspace, and value will accrue to $anime token, all working under the hood.
With crypto, we can flip the traditional Anime model, where fans & creators are at the mercy of production studios.
By leveraging a global settlement layer, crypto puts value & ownership back into the hands of the community right from day one.
From passive consumers to active stakeholders in an ever evolving world.

Most on-chain communities struggle with onboarding creatives and have a free-riding problem. Where a handful are responsible for driving the growth of the community.
Azuki is different, as there are over 175+ creatives leveraging the Azuki IP to build products & services, all with zero token incentives.
Why is community participation high compared to other on-chain communities?
—Holders are part of a sub culture they believe in
—Empowering builders via Garden Caretaker Program.
—Social recognition using equips in the collector profile.
