Things, Money and Data: AN OPEN TOKENIZED ECONOMY.
The real world and the metaverse, connected.
Boson Protocol disrupts e-commerce platforms by tokenizing Things and their commerce data within a liquid digital market, built on #DeFi
Boson Protocol’s vision is to enable a decentralized commerce ecosystem by funding and accelerating the development of a stack of specialist applications to disrupt, unbundle and democratize commerce.
REAL WORLD DATA
Oracles easily connect smart contracts to data sources. This problem has been solved by a number of players in the space.
REAL WORLD ASSETS
Arbitrated Protocols add cost and friction to the decentralized exchange of real world assets. No one has solved it, until now.
We eliminate intermediaries, replacing them with minimally extractive fees and minimized arbitration, cost and friction.
Boson provides a commerce interface between the Metaverse and the physical world, in which:
— A commitment to buy and sell is tokenized as a futures contract for a Thing, represented by NFT commitment tokens
— Each type of NFT commitment token can be purchased with a specific Thing token
— Anyone can plug into the Boson Protocol ecosystem for instant dCommerce capabilities
Commitments are made by depositing digital value into an escrow contract represented by stateful non-fungible commitment token, enabling automated digital to physical redemption.
Boson's core mechanism is a type of sequential game where the rules and the deposit transfer scheme are designed to coordinate transactions and incentivize parties to behave fairly.
Each type of commitment token can be purchased with a specific Thing token, which follows the ERC-20 standard. Thing tokens plug into DeFi infrastructure, enabling liquid digital markets for any Thing.
$BOSON tokens are used to govern Boson Protocol, ensuring consensus around critical decisions and controlling the issuance of funds from the dCommerce DAO.
Enabling video games to gift or grant permission to buy rare or special items. For example, on reaching Grand Wizard status, a player has the right to buy a special t-shirt.
Enabling loyalty programs and credit card rewards to offer any digital or physical Thing in a standardized, composable and interoperable digitized format, without the cost and friction of intermediaries.
Enabling exchange tokens to be redeemed for real world rewards directly from an exchange marketplace without touching fiat, differentiating by rewards rather than competing on fees, and thus increasing token value.
Enabling users to exchange their network tokens for digital and physical goods and services, in order to increase user-perceived value and token value.
Exchange tokens that can be redeemed for real world rewards. Enable exchange users to purchase real world items directly from an exchange marketplace, without touching fiat.
Rare or special items within games ecosystems: for example, a player wins the right to buy a special T-shirt, which exists simultaneously inside the game and in the real world.
