Hi everyone! I'm a builder of KOTOVERSE, it's a novel posting platform in web3. We'll release its beta next month on PH, so I'd be glad to hear some feedbacks from you here. The basic features are below: - Post your novels (short stories) - a daily ranking is determined by the number of upvotes (as in PH or Reddit) - Reading novels is basically free - but the parts that are upvoted (Liked) a lot can later be listed as NFTs - Sell / buy characters (as NFT) - those can be used as a character in your story. More details are shown in the landing page as well. https://kotoverse.xyz/ Thank you in advance.

Cool idea! Website hero has a blurry image though, and the image of the anime character is cut off. Also, is there a demand for selling webnovels as NFTs? Most of the value seems to be getting access to them for reading. Or is this an easier way of selling your works for royalties/copyright? If so, then that's definitely interesting! Also, are you guys working with AI image generation by any chance for Kotoverse? I built something recently that can help with that (evoke-app.com) and would love to connect if so.

@richard_gao2 Thank you Richard for your comment! Sure, we're updating the landing page now, we will improve the hero area as well. As I mentioned above, basically we offer the free access to the novels. On the other hand, authors can monetize from the super-fans who purchase the special NFTs as limited editions. We will work on the AI image/text integration in the next phrase because we should focus on the minimum features in the early phase. I will check your website. Appreciate!

@new_user_11b617761a Thanks! Definitely important to focus on the MVP first before image generation. Feel free to connect here if you when you do image generation btw: https://twitter.com/TheRealEtch Would love to introduce you to how Evoke works
