The continued popularity of GameFi has also prompted a large number of accompanying guild projects.

Recently, a namedPerionprojects have attracted much attention. On January 1, Perion officially announced the completion of $8.6 million in financing. Alameda and Framework jointly led the investment, and Pantera Capital, Gemini, TheSpartanGroup, Jump Crypto, IOSG, Synthetix and others participated in the investment.

Perion claims to be a decentralized autonomous organization (DAO), which mainly provides services such as purchasing, leasing and managing NFT assets to help players earn income in the game. Its vision is to create a decentralized organization founded, embraced and owned by gamers, creating the heroes of the future economy and providing new ways to generate income for people in developing countries. Although packaged in DAO, it is essentially a game guild.

“We hire gamers as independent contractors, allowing them to leverage their skills to earn handsomely. We build on a community of globally ranked gamers, skilled developers and financial professionals.” Perion said so on the official website.

The establishment of Perion is mainly due to Axie infinity. Its founding contributor, Amos Whitewolf, started playing Axie infinity in early 2021 and quickly rose to the top of the global PVP leaderboards.

On this basis, the Perion team began to create an organization to train, educate new gamers, and help novices progress through the combination of "old players + new players". According to its official website data, in the Axie Infinity ecosystem, Perion scholars (scholars) have gained huge returns. In September 2021, the average daily scholar income of the entire team is 288 SLP, which is 3.84 times the target benchmark of 75 competitors ; The annual income of Perion scholars in the Philippines is 195% of the national average in the Philippines.

Furthermore, Perion has also developed a scholar management system, including smart contracts for scholar payment, integrated performance tracking software, MOBA credential verification system, and automated systems for Axies genetic matching, pricing, and breeding to further help players increase revenue. It should be noted that the income share between Perion and scholars is 50%, which is relatively high, and other guilds will only take 30% of the income of scholars.

In terms of tokens, Perion’s native token is Perion Credits (PERC), which is mainly used for project governance and becomes an incentive token for the entire ecology; the total number is 100 million, and it is planned to conduct IDO on January 21 this year, and then go online on the centralized platform .

It should be noted that the governance of Perion is mainly composed of two different DAO structures, namely CoreDAO and GameDAO, which work together to meet organizational needs, as follows:

CoreDAO is composed of 3-5 people. By using PERC governance tokens to vote, it is mainly responsible for the specific operation of Perion, including: leasing NFT game assets to the Perion community; purchasing NFT assets, tokens and SAFT; farming, mining and others In-game economic activities and more. CoreDAO will initially be served by core contributors and thereafter will be elected.

GameDAO is an entity that operates independently of CoreDAO, distributing PERC tokens through self-distribution or cooperation with other NFT games. It involves Perion NFT and PERC tokens, and players must hold the relevant assets to be allocated.

Currently, Perion still focuses on Axie infinity, and the Discord community has 77,000 members, and plans to expand to other metaverses and blockchain game ecosystems.
