17/06/2021 WOM Protocol Launches NFT Marketplace for TikTokers and Music Artists to Collaborate and Monetize

SINGAPORE, June 16, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- WOM Protocol Pte. Ltd., a social commerce solution that enables brands to leverage word-of-mouth recommendations, announced today the launch of YAAAS, a brand new Non-Fungible Token (NFT) marketplace that connects social influencers and music artists with each other, as well as their communities, through the sale of experiences, collaborations and real-life meet and greets.



To celebrate the launch of YAAAS, WOM hosted an exclusive invite-only influencer event last Thursday, 10th of June, at a secret location in Miami, where guests with a combined reach of more than 250 million attended, alongside Puerto Rican rapper and songwriter, Noriel, who performed live.

Guest attendees included:

@alexyoumazzo (6.7m TikTok fans)

@dayynaa (5.9m TikTok fans)

@keemokazi (18.4m TikTok fans)

@swagboyq (15.8m TikTok fans)

@derektrendz (4.6m TikTok fans)

@nicolegarcia (6.7m TikTok fans)

@lelepons (23.7m TikTok fans)

@nilskue (2.7m TikTok fans)

@imgriffinjohnson (10.7m TikTok fans)

@markielucas (7.1m TikTok fans)

The YAAAS marketplace, which is currently in MVP, launched today with a phased rollout of features, enabling the community to test and shape its future development. First features include the ability for social influencers to trade TikTok Duet collaborations, giving successful TikTok creators a way to monetize their skills and help other creators make better videos, while supporting influencers looking to invest in further development and coaching a chance to improve their productions and grow their reach.

Collaborations are also available to artists looking to monetize their music through collaboration with influencers, giving influencers a brand new channel for finding original music to feature in social videos.

The YAAAS marketplace MVP also offers multiple relationship-building and engagement opportunities for fans, through the sale of meet and greets, as well as further in-person and online events.

The marketplace is designed with user-friendly features to make NFTs accessible to creators and communities that have no prior cryptocurrency knowledge or experience. Sellers can simply set up an auction for their services, along with a minimum and Buy Now price, to enable fans and followers to start bidding.

Buyers, meanwhile, simply need to register with YAAAS and set up a payment method, which can include fiat currencies, as well as Ether and ERC-20 tokens, including the WOM Token, through the use of a MetaMask wallet.

Once an auction is over YAAAS will open up a direct chat for buyers and sellers to arrange any final details. Buyers will also have the option to resell paid-for services, opening up the potential to make a profit.

The WOM Token, together with the WOM Protocol, provide a way to reward creators for recommendations without compromising consumer trust in the content. All recommendations are authenticated through the WOM Authenticator app, enabling the creators and authenticators to earn WOM Tokens as users engage with the content and make purchases.

TikTok star, Swagboyq, said: "YAAAS is a great new opportunity to collaborate with my community while getting into crypto."

Pop singer and influencer, Lukas Rieger, said: "Thrilled to have a new NFT marketplace that is focused on use cases for influencers and music artists. A lot of influencers are already familiar with WOM Token and are joining YAAAS."

Melanie Mohr, CEO of WOM Protocol, said: "Social influencers are a powerful force with such incredible reach into consumer markets -- we have a real opportunity here to create simple, user-friendly ways to monetize, while simultaneously driving mass NFT and cryptocurrency adoption. When people think of NFTs they immediately associate them with digital products and artworks, but there are so many more varied use cases, especially in the social networking space. Instead of social posts broadcast to millions of fans, think of one-on-one phone and video-based interactions, real-life meet and greets, content collaboration and coaching opportunities and much, much more."

Interesting NFTs
David vs the Virus
"An ode to the year everything changed" - Frank Wilder The story of the underdog is a reoccurring theme throughout history, and perhaps the most famous example is that of David vs Goliath. A tale about perseverance, in which David takes on and defeats the giant warrior using only his smarts and a stone. Famously depicted by Michelangelo's David statue. Fast forward to the present day in 2020 and we as humanity are faced with our own Goliath. An uncontrollable pandemic spread around the globe. Now with the entire planet being affected by this we understand the gravity of the situation at hand, whether it be a virus we’re fighting or other forces at play, there is indeed an energy out to shift the balance of the Universe… Regardless of our differences, in this moment must unite as one. With diligence, trust and belief we as a whole can come together to triumph against "the enemy". Stay vigilant my friends. Original score created by the one and only Phoenix Wilder.
It’s Alive!
"It’s Alive!" is the complementary artwork in Javier Arrés’ exploratory series titled "Bitcoin, The Origin". This artwork takes on a more playful narrative than its counterpart in the series to tell the story of the creation of Bitcoin in a fun way. In this creation, the artist approaches author Mary Shelley’s iconic novel "Frankenstein", or "The Modern Prometheus" to present us with an incredible, unexpected, fantastic and monstrous birth— The Creation! Colossal in size, importance and possibilities. A landmark of humanity. Arrés, influenced highly by cinema and all things audiovisual, reimagines a "Bitcoin creation" based on the cinematographic iconography of this prolific literary work as a way of relaying Bitcoin's influence on the world’s collective conscious. Bitcoin is certainly ALIVE! ------- "Bitcoin, The Origin" is a set of two Visual Toys, titled "Who is Satoshi Nakamoto" and "It’s Alive!" which reflect and explore the mystery and enigmas behind the creation of Bitcoin. Arrés presents these proposals to us in his signature style, full of iconography, fantasy, maniacal animations and a panoply of details (both subtle and overt) which simultaneously fascinate, hypnotize, and narrate this historical milestone through the singular vision of the artist. Through this series, Arrés freezes a crucial moment of cryptocurrency history, taking a still photo under his vision and turning it into two unique crypto artworks. ---- More info about Javier Arrés: https://javierarres.com/about.html
