The Unique.One Community Speaks
Unique.Fans Responds to the Needs of Erotic Artists
When the volunteer founding team built the Unique.One Art Marketplace on Ethereum in 2020, it had a primary objective — create an open decentralised community-run platform for all artists to be able to mint their art as NFTs.
The team was aware of the level of censorship by corporate-backed platforms that were barring artists from entering a flourishing “art-tech renaissance” during a difficult economic time.
The Voice of the Unique.One Community
The Unique.One Community is lively and vocal. Community members voluntarily help and support each other. They call out copyright infringers and create a supportive environment for artists and creators of all kinds. Suggestions are made and discussed. Consensus is found, and action is taken.
>We are Unique as One.
The Unique.One team takes its lead from the Unique.One Community for direction. In response to frustrations in the community about high Eth gas prices, it launched an additional marketplace on xDai where minting costs fractions of a dollar.
Upon awareness within the community that photographers had particular needs, the road for Unique.Photo was pathed. (Unique.Photo is set to launch in Q2.)
The struggles of erotic artists have not gone unnoticed
After one of our community members was interviewed by Motherboard, it became apparent that there was a need for a platform dedicated exclusively to NSFW NFT creators.
“Just as what is considered ‘art’ is infinitely debated and in the eyes of the beholder, what is considered inappropriate varies greatly amongst individuals,” our community member said — to which Motherboard pointed out that, with NSFW NFTs, the beholder seems to have become the platforms themselves.
This got our attention.
Unique.Fans Responds to the Needs of Erotic Artists
Erotic artists are continually dogged by barriers to monetising their art. Beyond the obvious struggle of social media and platform restrictions, payment processors cancel accounts, and middlemen take a fair chunk of their earnings.
While the NFT space offers solutions for many of these issues, ongoing censorship on major NFT platforms — even those with dedicated NSFW categories — have become a source of frustration.
All of it calls into question who is to decide what constitutes art? Or, as Motherboard put it, who is the beholder?
Unique holds the position that the community itself is the beholder and decides what art is — not the platform.
Diverse community groups organically grow around different genres of art to naturally support their artists and create networks — if given the opportunity without the interference of centralised censoring authorities.
The Vision for Unique.Fans
Unique Fans is a space where creators can develop a more intimate relationship with fans who have the freedom to support the artists they care about by becoming investors in the art they appreciate.
Networks and followings can be built in peace without the fear of a centralised authority imposing subjective judgments on what is or what is not art.
The blockchain also provides innovative ways for NSFW artists to protect against theft of their art, which is a huge problem in the erotic art space, where stolen risqué content is disseminated by illicit aggregators.
NFT artists who mint their works on-chain before any other online exposure have the opportunity to create an archive of provenance. They can also elect to protect their work from copyright infringement on-platform with watermarks, only releasing the original image upon purchase.
Net Zero Platform Fee
No Fees for Artists. For collectors/buyers, the FANS platform will charge a 2.5% platform fee. But all platform fees will be used to buy $FANS tokens back from the market and burn them to reduce the circulating supply and create value for Hodlers.
Self-published Uncensored Alluring Content for Fans
Unique Fans is a community-owned decentralised NFT Adult Arts Marketplace for the growing world of digital Adult Creators and their Fans.
The Unique Fans Community insists on an open platform that encourages individuals to express their creativity as long as Users respect the Fans Community Terms and Guidelines.
The Fans Community Terms and Guidelines are meant for the protection of artists, the community, and the innocent to keep the platform legal and accessible — not to be used to selectively silence the voices of creativity in the Adult Art Genre.
Fair Launch for $FANS
There will be no public or private sale. No $FANS tokens will be given for free to anyone, including the Unique Fans Community Volunteer Founding Team.
As part of the Community, the Team has to earn tokens like all other Fans in the Community.
All $FANS tokens must be earned through participation on the Fans Community Platform and its various promotions and collaborations with other protocols.
$FANS Emission Schedule
Upon Project launch, 260,000 $FANS tokens will be in circulation, followed by the distribution of 90k $FANS rewards for $RARE and $FANS LPs over the course of the first 3 months.
130,000 $FANS tokens will then be released every year for 5 years at which point the total supply of 1 million tokens will be in circulation.
$FANS Distribution Model
Deflationary Token Model
Only 1 million $FANS tokens will ever be created. 100% of the Unique Fans platform fee will be used to buy circulating $FANS tokens back from the market and burn for deflationary purposes.
