NFTs are revolutionary, but we can't value them
In the next 5 years, trillions of dollars in assets will be digitized via NFTs and we currently have no way to accurately value them.
The Polyient Network Will Power NFT Markets
We are building the first cross-chain network dedicated to NFT data aggregation, analysis and liquidity transformation.
These models inform pricing across a wide variety of user cases in financial markets, collectibles, art, gaming, and even real-world assets.
Through these pricing models, the Polyient Network will be home to an exclusive platform of novel synthetic digital asset products.
Data Sources
PNT Use Cases
4 ways PNT can be used by network participants.
Node Operator
750k to 2M Staked PNT
Node operators stake PNT to ensure good behavior and incentivize accurate data and node availability. Node operators earn PNT when providing data to smart contracts.
Data Providers
500k to 1M Staked PNT
Data providers stake PNT to supply NFT data to the network. In exchange, data providers receive usage fees and priority access to data analysis outputs.
Developer
1 - 1000 PNT per request
Developers pay PNT to nodes when requesting data from the network. Typical data request include current NFT price, volatility and price prediction.
End User
Depends on the desired liquidity method
End users pay PNT to enabled dapps in order to access NFT liquidity.
Polyient Network Token (PNT)
Token Overview
PNT is the utility token used to secure interactions throughout the Polyient Network. This utility token enables staking driven participation in the network and seeks to limit malicious behavior by incentivizing contributors and punishing bad actors.
PNT supports the following network actions:
- Payment rewards to data providers for contribution to the network.
- Participation in the delivery of data as an oracle node.
- Data consumption by dapps, marketplaces and smart contracts.
- Governance of future network decisions.
- Collateral for securing liquidity from NFT assets.
PNT Rewards
Vault rewards depend on the NFT series that is added to the vault. There are several series that each correspond to a reward level. Each vault series guarantees a minimum reward output if the vault is at full NFT capacity.
Each vault series has a maximum capacity based on the number of Polyient Network NFTs available during the Initial Vault Sale. In the case that a vault is not at maximum capacity, users who vault their NFTs will equally share the rewards that would have been allocated to the maximum vault capacity. This means that reward output may be far greater than the guaranteed minimum.
Claiming Vault Rewards
A user can collect rewards created by a Polyient Network Vault at any time by unstaking their NFT and claiming the rewards earned to date. This allows users to accrue a reward balance over time and withdraw rewards at their convenience.
Polyient Network Vaults
What is a Polyient Network NFT?
A Polyient Network Vault allows a user to stake - or lock up - their NFT collectible in a smart contract in exchange for rewards in the form of fungible tokens. Polyient Network Vaults create PNT fungible tokens as a reward for vaulting Polyient Network NFTs.
A Polyient Network NFT is a digital collectible that is uniquely designed to connect to the Polyient Network Vault system. As a standalone collectible, a Polyient Network NFT is a unique piece of digital art. When paired with the Polyient Network Vault system, the NFT becomes a powerful key that unlocks Polyient Network tokens.
How do I add my Polyient Network NFT to a vault?
Vault Series NFTs can be added to a vault that corresponds to the NFT series (ex: a series IV NFT can be added to a series IV vault). Adding your NFT to a vault is a simple process that involves signing several blockchain transactions using a wallet like MetaMask.
When will Polyient Network Vaults be available?
Polyient Network vaults will be available to holders of Vault Series NFTs purchased during the discount period on May 18th, 2021.
NFTs purchased after the discount period will be eligible for vaulting in early summer 2021.
Core Technology
Polyient Network Nodes
Node operators stake PNT and provide hardware infrastructure and guaranteed uptime to the network.
As with most staked node networks, node operators are rewarded with PNT and delgators can stake their PNT with high performing nodes.
Vaults and Synthetics
Polyient Network Vaults enable users to earn liquid yield on illiquid NFT assets. Staking NFT assets in a Vault, allows users to retain access to appreciating assets without losing access to market opportunities that require liquidity.
The Polyient Network Index token (PNI) is a synthetic token which represents the value of an NFT compared to similar NFTs across the Polyient Network.
The NFTs chosen for comparison values is a dynamically changing collection of assets that is constantly updated and distributed throughout the Node Network.
Cross Chain Liquidity
As new L1 and L2 players emerge, the Polyient Network will enable wider market participation and user acquisition across best-of-breed chains.
Initial Vault Sale (IVS)
Polyient has pioneered a new form of digital asset launch that empowers users to earn Polyient Network Token (PNT) by staking NFT collectibles inside of a Polyient Network Vault.
How it works
Step One
Purchase one or more Polyient Network Vault NFTs
Step Two
Stake NFT collectibles inside of a Polyient Network Vault.
Step Three
Earn PNT rewards each time a new block is mined.
