Introduction

Onchain stories never fade.

What is Atticc?

"Stories are a communal currency of humanity." - Tahir Shah
Atticc is a suite of social utility protocols enabling people and communities to leave their stories, onchain.
Atticc's name is inspired by Attic Nights, an ancient Roman commonplace book by Aulus Gellius (c. 125 – after 180 AD) that preserved the stories of many authors who would otherwise have faded into obscurity. The additional "C" at the end symbolizes both "Crypto" and "Community."
Attic Nights 1537 Edition
Much like how authors of the past communicated with the world across space and time through written volumes; Atticc captures the stories told by individuals and communities in the blockchain era.

Why Atticc?

"Stories have to be told or they die, and when they die, we can't remember who we are or why we're here." - Sue Monk Kidd
Stories are the threads that weave people together, shaping cultures and etching the collective memories of humanity. Our impact on the world is ultimately remembered as stories. The extent and duration of our influence are measured by the number of people who bear witness to our stories and the span of time they're held in memory.
The blockchain is the ultimate canvas to capture these stories. Beneath the matrix of every transaction's bits and bytes lies a narrative broadcasting across the network's nodes. The infrastructure for onchain storytelling exists, yet the applications are lacking.
Atticc's mission is to unveil, preserve and proliferate our stories onchain. By solving below problems, Atticc will enable individuals and communities to engrave their lasting impact on the world.
  • Unveil - Blockchain data can be confounding. While the data itself is instantaneous, universally accessible, retrievable by anyone, and eternally extant, deciphering its intricacies demands laborious effort and profound expertise. Atticc aims to unveil significant events on the blockchain, transforming them into narratives that resonate with humanity. With our expertise in data analytics and AI, Atticc is primed to take on this challenge.
  • Preserve - In a future intertwined with the blockchain, events undocumented onchain may as well have never transpired. Blockchain technology is on a trajectory to permeate every facet of our lives. Decentralization, immutability and censorship resistance will become fundamental expectations. In such a landscape, the absence of onchain presence is tantamount to irrelevance. Atticc, with its suite of social utility protocols, is committed to safeguarding stories worthy of commemoration. Today's social medias suffer from misinformation and viral falsehoods. The blockchain, with its immutable record and traceable provenance, offers an antidote. Atticc as a blockchain-based social media platform, will cultivate a culture of truth-telling and truth-seeking.
  • Proliferate - Stories are only as valuable as the people who remember them. After unveiling significant events and preserving worthy stories onchain, Atticc endeavors to proliferate these stories through tokenomics that leverage network effects. With the community possessing a substantial allocation of the $ATT token, Atticc is determined to heavily incentivize interactions that amplify stories across multiple social networks. Naturally, sybil resistance measures will be in place.

Who is building Atticc?

Atticc was co-founded by Jason, Chelsea and Rico in July 2022.
We were a little crazy to bootstrap a new crypto project during the depths of the bear market. Since our inception, Three Arrows has liquidated, Luna has collapsed, FTX has imploded and the NFT downturn is now in full effect.
However, we chose to remain undeterred by the FUD and kept building. With each achievement slightly bigger than the last, we have now emerged as one of the foremost Web3 social projects in terms of number of users, onchain interactions and gas fee burned.
Throughout this journey, we have witnessed numerous projects falter and give up. What set us apart in weathering the trials of a challenging market? It's our unwavering passion for what we do. We believe in a decentralized future built with blockchain technologies. We see our efforts as having a small yet pivotal role in paving the way for a better tomorrow.
We have a team of talented developers, designers, researchers and data scientists who are experts in their respective fields. Together we bring experiences from the world's leading organizations including PwC, EY, BCG, Macquarie Group, Nasdaq, ASX, Canva, Immutable, Huobi, University of Sydney and more.
We are driven by the purpose of enabling people and communities to leave their stories onchain. If you have any suggestions for us, please provide your feedback here. We love to hear from you!
Embark on this exciting and ambitious journey with us! Your support is the wind beneath our wings.

And that has made all the difference." - Robert Frost
