Birth of AMATO(NFT)

AMATO (NFT), the origin of many of the character brands developed by JAPAN DAO, was issued in September 2022 with 5,555 pieces of generative artwork based on the theme of “Samurai who challenge” (on the Ethereum chain). （The pre-sale sold out in a short time, despite the difficult market conditions, and the community celebrated the birth of these handsome heroes during the re-release. The price started at a very low mintage of 0.001 ETH. The highest price so far was the floor price of 0.05 ETH, which at one point was 50 times the mint price. Currently, the floor price is hovering around 0.01 ETH, but on the other hand, the fact that it has survived the NFT winter period with such a low floor price shows its underlying strength as an IP. The price is expected to fluctuate greatly as the planned measures to strengthen the IP are put in place.

AMATO Features

The red and white of the Japanese flag, a symbol of Japan, is used throughout, and the beauty of Japan and its culture are interwoven throughout the parts of the product, conveying a strong message of “Japan’s revival” to the world. The product is also filled with founder Yuda’s (@yudajapandao) passionate wish to “do our best to support world-class Japanese creators. Each part has a variety of parts such as dumplings, watermelons, soap bubbles, and cute accompaniments, in addition to costumes and weapons based on the image of “samurai” and “ninja,” which are extremely popular overseas as well. The lively compositions that jump into the screen are also popular as PFPs for X (Twitter) and Discord, and are used by many JAPAN DAO families.

Various utilities have been prepared for “AMATO (NFT)” holders, depending on their roll. In its first phase, “AMATO theme song NFT” was free minted for samurai and above. The luxurious 3D card with gold and crimson colors created by Daruman (@Daruman_JP), the main creator of the NFT Museum of Japan, was the first of its kind for the music NFT. The second version was also a free mint of “AMATO Sword” for Samurai and above. Also created by Daruman, the red and black sword is of high quality and has an outstanding presence. Many people purchased NFTs to acquire Samurai rolls, and the floor price was raised significantly. We expect more holder-only NFT airdrops and AL distribution of new projects in the future. Expectations are also high for the new work of Daruman, a genius creator who is the focus of great attention in the industry. We hope to continue to take good care of AMATO… *The distribution of the first and second projects has already ended.

Prologue 1 and Prologue 2, which are set against the background of the aforementioned “AMATO story,” provide an easy-to-understand summary of the “AMATO” worldview.

Prologue 1Half a century after humans began spending time in the metaverse, a phenomenon similar to amnesia began to occur in the real world. This is a phenomenon in which a part of memory is left behind in the digital space on the way back to the real world from the metaverse world. People called these memory fragments “fragments. In response to this situation, each Metaverse began to recover fragments. Amaterasu is one such organization that is dedicated to the recovery of fragments in the IZANA metaverse space. The organization receives requests from people who have lost their memories and recovers fragments from the vast metaverse world. However, the recovery of fragments is an unexpected struggle.

Prologue 2A few years ago, attacks from deformed monsters began to be reported. The monsters that lurk in the Metaverse space take fragments into their bodies. Because of this characteristic, the monsters have come to be known as “memory eaters. In recent years, the number of Memory Eaters has increased and they have become a threat to the Metaverse world. Amaterasu is an organization that is attracting worldwide attention because of its extremely high fragment recovery rate. Of special note is its exclusive avatar, the “AMATO” model. AMATO is a state-of-the-art combat avatar, with 5,555 avatars introduced this fall. This will allow the IZANA metaverse with AMATERAS to be evaluated for safety. The mission assigned to Amaterasu is to defeat the Memory Eaters and recover the fragments. The battle raged on day by day.
