From vanity metrics to verifiable intelligence - Funding target: $50,000.00 - Total committed: N/A - Status: Refunding - Launch date: 2026-03-07 - URL: https://www.futard.io/launch/9diK9jWj4vEbCw6mKaSekdn2vw2R62jFDhCgYerCo8jK ## Team / Description ## TL;DR • **NexID transforms Web3 onboarding into interactive, verifiable education.** Users learn through AI-powered video experiences, complete interactive challenges, and earn on-chain credentials that prove what they actually understand. • **Protocols will be able to run high-impact onboarding campaigns through NexID.** Our campaign framework is designed for projects that want educated communities rather than low-quality quest traffic. • **Users build a portable Web3 identity through `.id` domains.** These domains store credentials, reputation scores, and activity history, acting as a digital briefcase for Web3 participation. • **AI-driven learning powered by Synthesia technology.** Our platform integrates AI video infrastructure from Synthesia (a $4B company) with gamification, quizzes, and on-chain verification. **The MVP platform is already live and fully functional, and we are currently onboarding our first campaign partners.** ### Live Product Example To demonstrate how NexID campaigns work in practice, see these interactive courses. Onchain with gas fee abstracted: **[The Futardio Founder Playbook](https://academy.nexid.fun/academy/campaign/4)** **[Web3 Product Design](https://academy.nexid.fun/academy/campaign/3)** This campaigns showcases how projects can onboard and educate their communities through interactive video lessons, quizzes, and on-chain participation. --- # Project Description - NexID ## Interactive Web3 Education, Credentials & Identity Infrastructure --- # The Problem Web3 has a **retention problem disguised as growth**. Protocols spend millions on quests, airdrops, and incentive campaigns. These campaigns generate impressive participation numbers, but most of the activity comes from: - Low-intent reward farmers - Bots and Sybil attackers - Users who never actually learn the product The result is predictable: - Marketing budgets disappear - Communities remain uneducated - Retention after incentives collapses Most platforms measure **clicks and completions**, not **understanding**. Web3 needs onboarding that produces **knowledgeable users**, not just temporary traffic. --- # The NexID Solution NexID turns onboarding into **interactive, verifiable education**. We combine **AI-powered video learning** with **on-chain credentials and identity infrastructure** to create onboarding campaigns that reward **actual learning and participation**. Our platform uses AI avatar technology from **Synthesia**, a company valued at over **$4B**, to power engaging interactive video lessons. These lessons integrate with: - gamified learning mechanics - on-chain credential verification - Web3 identity domains - reputation scoring Instead of: > Watch video → Click next → Claim reward Users now experience: > Learn → Interact → Prove knowledge → Earn rewards → Build identity --- # Why This Matters The next phase of Web3 growth will depend on **educated users and builders**. NexID provides infrastructure for: - protocol onboarding - developer education - ecosystem training - verifiable skill credentials - identity-based reputation In short: **Proof of Learning replaces Proof of Clicking.** --- # Core Platform Architecture | Layer | Function | |------|------| | **AI Education Layer** | Interactive learning powered by Synthesia AI avatars | | **Gamification Layer** | Quizzes, branching scenarios, and reward mechanics | | **Credential Layer** | On-chain proof of course completion | | **Identity Layer** | `.id` domain identities storing credentials and reputation | | **Engagement Layer** | Campaign tasks, social actions, and on-chain activities | Each layer reinforces the others, creating a **learning → participation → identity flywheel**. --- # The NexID Identity System (.id Domains) NexID introduces **Web3 identity domains** designed to function as a **portable digital briefcase**. Each `.id` domain can contain: - On-chain credentials - Wallet trust score - Reputation data - Completed educational programs - Referral rewards - Payment and invoice generation This creates a **persistent identity layer for Web3 participation**. Domain holders can also refer new users and earn **25% referral rewards**, creating a built-in growth loop. --- # Domain Mint Pricing ## Human Identities | Length | Rarity | Price | |------|------|------| | 1 Character | Ultra Rare | $2,000 | | 2 Characters | Very Rare | $1,000 | | 3 Characters | Rare | $200 | | 4 Characters | Standard | $40 | | 5 Characters | Standard | $10 | | 6–9 Characters | Standard | $5 | | 10+ Characters | Standard | $2 | Domains **5 characters and longer** may be distributed as part of partner campaigns, up to **1,000 per campaign**. --- ## AI Agent Domains Designed for **autonomous onchain agents and AI systems**. | Feature | Specification | |------|------| | Price | $0.01 – $0.10 | | Minting | API mint access | | Standard | x402 | | Rate Limit | 50 mints per minute | | Transferable | Restricted | | Example | `the-defi-agent.id` | As autonomous agents become common in Web3, identity infrastructure for them will become essential. --- # Business Model NexID operates as a **B2B campaign platform with a B2C identity ecosystem**. Protocols pay NexID to build **interactive onboarding campaigns**, while users engage through the learning platform and domain identity layer. --- ## Campaign Pricing | Tier | Duration | Price | |------|------|------| | Starter Campaign | 1 Week | $15,000 | | Growth Campaign | 3 Weeks | $50,000 | | Ecosystem Campaign | 1 Month+ | $100,000+ | --- ## Additional Revenue Streams - Multi-language campaign support - Custom team training programs - Premium domain minting - Identity-based reputation utilities - Future credential marketplaces At scale, we believe this model can support **$10M–$25M annual revenue**. --- # Market Opportunity The Web3 education and onboarding market is expanding rapidly as more users enter the ecosystem. Every protocol needs: - onboarding - developer education - ecosystem training - community growth Yet most still rely on **static documentation or inefficient quest platforms**. NexID positions itself as **infrastructure for Web3 education and onboarding**, not just another quest platform. --- # Key Differentiators | Feature | Typical Platforms | NexID | |------|------|------| | Interactive AI Video | ❌ | ✅ | | On-chain credentials | Partial | Full integration | | Identity infrastructure | ❌ | `.id` domains | | Wallet optional onboarding | Rare | Yes | | Gas abstraction | Rare | Fully abstracted | | Advanced anti-bot design | Weak | Multi-layered | Users can start learning **without connecting a wallet**, making onboarding dramatically easier for Web2 users. Wallet functionality can be added later once users are ready. --- # Bot & Sybil Resistance Bots are inevitable in open systems, but NexID makes them **increasingly difficult to operate at scale**. Protection layers include: - interactive video branching - performance-based quizzes - wallet trust scoring - behavioral pattern analysis Future updates will introduce **live AI video agent interactions**, requiring users to actively demonstrate knowledge. Bots can farm clicks. They struggle when they must **understand what they just watched**. --- # Target Market ## B2B Customers Crypto projects that have: - raised **$2M+ funding** - strong treasury reserves - active ecosystems requiring education Use cases include: - protocol onboarding - developer education - ecosystem expansion - community retention --- ## B2C Audience NexID also serves: - creators - developers entering Web3 - builders learning blockchain technologies - users seeking identity and reputation infrastructure Many educational resources will remain **free and publicly accessible**. --- # Roadmap ## Phase 1 — Core Platform (Completed) - Smart contracts for academy - `.id` domain minting - trust score system - interactive video infrastructure - gamification and reward mechanics Next milestone: **launching the first protocol campaigns**. --- ## Phase 2 — Intelligence & Expansion - advanced in-video quizzes - scoring tied to rewards - expanded marketing efforts - team expansion from **2 → 5** - additional course content - new protocol partnerships --- ## Phase 3 — AI Interaction Layer - live AI video agent interactions - real-time knowledge verification - enhanced Sybil resistance - expanded enterprise campaign partnerships --- # Use of Funds NexID has been **fully self-funded** to date. The current raise is intentionally small and focused on **achieving revenue traction**. --- ## Fundraising Details | Item | Value | |------|------| | Raise | $50,000 | | Implied Valuation | $75,000 | | Monthly Burn | $5,000 | | Runway | 6–8 months | --- ## Monthly Burn Breakdown | Category | Monthly Cost | |------|------| | Team | $2,000 | | Infrastructure | $2,000 | | Marketing | $1,000 | Infrastructure includes hosting, APIs, authentication services, AI tools, and the Synthesia video stack. Burn will scale **only alongside revenue growth**. --- # Team NexID is currently built by a **two-person founding team** that developed the entire platform from scratch. The founder previously created **gamified crypto learning experiences for children**, educating **over 5,000 students** through partnerships with TinyTap and Open Campus. This experience informs NexID’s approach: Education should be **interactive, engaging, and provable**. --- # Vision NexID aims to become the **default infrastructure layer for Web3 education, onboarding, and identity**. If successful, NexID will power: - protocol onboarding programs - developer training pipelines - creator education platforms - identity-based Web3 reputation systems The goal is simple: Replace shallow engagement metrics with **verifiable knowledge and identity**. And hopefully make Web3 onboarding **a little smarter and a lot less spammy**. ## Links - Website: https://nexid.fun - Twitter: https://x.com/UseNexID - Discord: https://discord.gg/Rmuy5qBBjT ## Raw Data - Launch address: `9diK9jWj4vEbCw6mKaSekdn2vw2R62jFDhCgYerCo8jK` - Token: FbA (FbA) - Token mint: `FbA6HqFFw1crzuPReoaUuT6XESU3fz52FCUhL4B7meta` - Version: v0.7 - Closed: 2026-03-08
