Smart Layer: A New Paradigm Redefining Token Economics

The Web3 community's perception of tokens is shifting. Traditionally, tokens have been seen primarily as an asset, but with the advent of Smart Layers, tokens have been given more functional services. This innovation introduces the concept of "programmable assets" and opens up entirely new use cases for tokens.

The core idea of Smart Layer is to transform the token from a mere asset into a functional tool. Under this framework, users not only have ownership of the tokens, but also access various third-party services through them. This shift not only improves the scalability of assets, but also opens up new opportunities for growth in areas such as Web3 gaming and loyalty programs.

Currently, Smart Layer is conducting an airdrop of points, and participants have the opportunity to be rewarded with SLN tokens. So far, more than 1 million unique wallet addresses have participated, and the number of on-chain transactions has exceeded 16.4 million. Participants can accumulate points by completing various tasks, such as joining social media communities, recommending new users, and more.

One of the notable tasks is related to the NFT collections "Smart Cats" and "SmartCat Loot". Not only can these NFTs earn points by holding them, but they can also earn extra points by interacting with them. Smart Cats, as a representation of smart tokens, demonstrates the potential of programmable assets. Users can interact with these NFTs directly in their wallets, performing actions such as feeding, cleaning, and more without having to jump to a third-party website.

The technical foundation of Smart Layer is a combination of TokenScript and ERC-5169 standards. TokenScript is a programming interface designed for tokenization that allows token issuers to embed various information and rules into tokens. The ERC-5169 standard further enhances the functionality of tokens, allowing them to carry their own logic and behavior.

This combination of technologies makes Smart Layer a bridge between the blockchain world and traditional web services. Not only does it provide users with a better experience, but it also opens up new possibilities for token issuers and traditional network services. Smart Layer is redefining the token economy, making tokens no longer just circulating assets, but multi-functional tools for facilitating ecosystem development.

Smart Layer has already attracted the attention of numerous investors, raising $12 million in funding over the past two years. Its testnet went live on January 15, and the mainnet is expected to launch in 2025. Despite its short history, Smart Layer has already shown great potential. For example, Smart Cats attracted more than 300,000 active wallets to participate in just 60 days, making it one of the most popular projects in the Polygon ecosystem.

With the rise of the new concept of "programmable assets", we can expect that in the next bull market, Smart Layer and its related technologies will bring richer and more diverse application scenarios to Web3. This new asset paradigm has the potential to revolutionize the way we understand and use digital assets, breathing new life into the blockchain industry as a whole.
