The Reshaping of the Web3 Creator Economy: Innovations and Challenges of the Lamina1 Public Chain

In the rapidly evolving landscape of AI and AIGC in 2024, content creators are facing unprecedented challenges. The traditional content creation economy appears fragile, and creators need a fairer mechanism to safeguard the true value of their creativity and labor. Lamina1, as a blockchain infrastructure designed specifically for creators, is committed to building a decentralized and sustainable content creation ecosystem for creators, leveraging its high-performance blockchain architecture and unique economic model to elevate the creator economy to new heights.

The Low Point of the Metaverse and the Reshaping Demand of the Creator Economy

Since the rise of the metaverse concept in 2021, it has gone through a process from a boom to a decline. As the bubble bursts, a truly open metaverse is gradually taking shape, urgently requiring new avenues for exploring the creator economy.

The main challenges currently facing the metaverse and the creator economy include:

1. Economic return rate issue: The development cycle of metaverse projects is long and costly, making it difficult to achieve ideal economic returns.

2. Centralized platform control: Social media platforms monetize creator content through advertisements, and the high degree of centralization makes it difficult for creators to receive the rewards they deserve.

3. Web3 Metaverse projects are immature: Due to insufficient blockchain performance and the lack of universal standards, many projects find it difficult to achieve decentralization goals.

4. The closed loop of the creator economy is difficult to establish: existing projects lack clear guidelines for creation and incentive systems, making it difficult to form a virtuous cycle of production and consumption.

These issues have led to a high degree of homogeneity among existing metaverse projects, making it impossible to provide a high-quality online experience and to achieve the interconnection between the online world and the economic system.

4. PayFi Mechanism: Creators can set the payment and ownership transfer methods for their works, achieving automated copyright protection and revenue distribution.

5. Secondary Creation and DAO Governance: Encourage secondary creation of content, allowing creators to lead platform operations and management through DAO mechanisms.

6. Interactive Experience and Staking Services: Plans to launch more open interactive features to enhance platform openness, user experience, and diversity of returns.
