POND — Wallet to Wall

Like any emerging technology, NFT is still on its way to enable mainstream adoption. As pieces of digital content linked with the blockchain, most of them are stored as digital assets in the web 3.0 wallets, but are not truly visible in the real world.

We are building POND, a hybrid model, to promote a unique NFT ecosystem via both NFT devices and NFT marketplace. Just like a pond in nature, the name of our company strives to resemble the thriving image of an ecosystem surrounding the pond, which conveys values of inclusiveness, coherence, and boundless growth.

Collectors can display and show off their expensive NFTs, such as Punks and Apes, as their avatars on Twitter, Discord, NFT marketplaces, or whichever social platforms they desire. However, there isn’t a dedicated device specializing in both showing NFTs with a user-friendly interface and promoting the interaction between NFT creators and mainstream audience.

On the other hand, due to its non-fungible nature, NFT is lack of liquidity if people don’t constantly trade them, which is one of the industry’s fundamental pain points.

POND is the solution. A well designed POND device, embedded with our “Wallet to Wall” technology, directly showcases your valuable collectibles on your wall and presents your investment the way it deserves.

Further, we are also building a social platform that goes beyond the current NFT community, a POND marketplace. Here, we are promoting a more inclusive and shared digital economy to enable everyone to join the NFT world regardless of owning a web 3.0 wallet while liking, commenting, and enjoying the beauty of NFTs. We are also solving the common issue faced by NFT collectors, that is, how to financially benefit from holding their collections before they are sold out. POND fills in the waiting period and allows creators to list their NFTs on it, which helps creators generate passive income before their NFTs are sold. To elaborate on how POND marketplace works, we can think of it as an “Airbnb” model for NFT, where creators can license timed viewings of their work products. With this establishment, POND aims to provide a gateway for audiences who have not yet adopted the blockchain technology but have been eager to enter the NFT world, providing the NFT creators with additional financial benefit.

Differentiating ourselves from existing NFT platform services, POND recognizes the importance of ownership, and authorization from content creators is our first consideration: We leave the decisions to our NFT creators whether to share their contents or not. Moreover, POND enables users to view and explore exclusive digital collectibles listed by the creators or IP owners. POND allows creators to seamlessly import their NFTs from other existing platforms.

With all being said, POND is committed to promoting digital renaissance and accelerating the adoption for NFT and blockchain technology as a whole. This is POND, a company that’s more than an NFT service provider, but a pioneer to move the industry forward by inventing our own unique ecosystem.
