Dragonverse Neo, one of Merlins flagship projects, Dragonverse Neo, released a white paper today, which contains a lot of information. Including gameplay, economic mechanism, and roadmap, it covers a full set of solutions from 3A games to self-developed game chains, fully demonstrating the ambition of the leading chain game leader to attack Bitcoin. Although the white paper itself is not difficult to understand, it is recommended that family members who do not have time or do not understand the background of the project should just read this nanny-level tutorial first. Let’s start with the key points——

Glossary
MOBOX: Joined Binance’s old project in 21 years, and is the absolute king in the blockchain game field.
Dragonverse Neo (Dragon Universe):A 3D game created by MOBOX in Merlin Chain, with Genshin Impact style + open world gameplay of Phantom Beast Parlu.
Main world + parallel world:The Dragon Universe is divided into two parts. The main world can be understood as the game plaza hall, which is mainly used for hanging out, picking up garbage, and teasing the dragon lady; the parallel world is a game with different mechanisms. With tickets, you can enter and play games to make money. Different parallel worlds can be entered from the main world map.
MDBL tokens (buy some dragons):The native token of the Dragon Universe game is a shovel that can dig out gold mines.
eMDBL Token:The token MDBL 1: 1 is exchanged for the token eMDBL. It is actually the token eMDBL used for gold making in the game.
Dragon Ball:The BRC-420 inscription issued by MOBOX has 0 royalties, free casting, fair launch, deflation mechanism, and its market value has now quadrupled. Dragon Balls are the golden key to the Dragon Universe. Holding Dragon Balls can make liquidity mining more profitable. Burning Dragon Balls can hatch high-quality dragons and generate node benefits.
MODragon (龙龙):MOBOX issued a set of NFTs on the Arbitrum chain. Holding Longlong can make liquidity mining more profitable, and it also has a unique buff bonus in the game.
MOSE:MOBOX plans to build the Bitcoin game L3 on Merlin to achieve after-sleep income through nodes, private servers and other gameplay.
Understand the revenue model in one second
Simple summary: MDBL fair launch → 1: 1 Exchange eMDBL → Use eMDBL to mine tokens in the ecosystem → Use Dragon Ball/Dragon Dragon to add buff → Exchange eMDBL back to MDBL, you can freely choose different lock-up periods
MDBL token is definitely the core asset of Dragon Universe. Exchange MDBL into eMDBL, and you can use eMDBL to start your gold-making journey in Dragon Universe. The gold mines that are expected to be mined include: eMDBL, Merlin currency MERL, parallel world game tickets, dragon eggs (which can hatch dragons), and more will be added in the future.
If you happen to have a Dragon Ball in your left hand and a Dragon in your right hand, you can mine more tokens than others and win at the starting line. At the same time, burning dragon balls can hatch high-level dragons, further accelerating the gold mining speed.
There are several ways to dig out gold mines: participate in staking liquidity mining, play games to get rewards, become a creator and contribute game content, and become a MOSE node operator. This will be explained in detail below.
How to obtain MDBL tokens? 69% fair launch, 31% put in the game for you to mine. The team and investors have no share at all, they give it all to the community.
MDBL can be exchanged for eMDBL at a ratio of 1:1. There is a certain lock-up period for redeeming eMDBL into MDBL, but it provides a higher degree of freedom in the mechanism and is more user-friendly than traditional staking.
How to mine gold?
Let’s take a closer look at where gold mines can be found.
1. Liquidity mining
By holding eMDBL tokens and participating in liquidity mining, you can dig out: eMDBL; external assets such as MERL; tradable parallel world game tickets; dragon eggs that can hatch dragons.
2. Play games and earn rewards
The Dragon Universe is divided into the main world and the parallel world.
The main world is the novice village you enter when you start the game. It supports rooms with multiple people online at the same time. There are castles, rivers, villages, and a sexy dragon lady wearing black stockings walking around. You can go on a City Walk in the main world and trap the dragon girl just like playing Pokémon.
Some corners of the main world map can be transferred to parallel worlds. Parallel worlds are actually game DLCs, with related levels, values and respective in-game assets. You can earn tokens by improving the game ranking. Tickets are required to enter the parallel world to mine gold. Tickets can be obtained by mining eMDBL or purchased on the market.
3. Creator Economy
In fact, I didn’t want to talk too much about this. Too many project parties would draw a picture like this and add it to the white paper as a placeholder. But I didn’t expect that Long Universe actually built an editor that allows ordinary users to make games.
This game editor is packaged and downloaded together with the Dragon Universe game itself. It is very simple to use: just build the building blocks like Minecraft, use the template to create a small prop or scene in five minutes, and then put it on the market and sell it. Or if you are really good at it, you can actually create a playable game and publish it (you don’t need any permission to publish the game), and then all the tickets and krypton gold income generated by the game will be distributed to you. The game editor is now ready for use, which is really surprising.
4. MOSE chain
MOSE is the third layer of games made by MOBOX for Merlin Chain. Not only Dragon Universe, but other Bitcoin games can also be built on MOSE. The third layer can improve performance, reduce Gas, and allow 3A games to run on the Bitcoin network.
When building a chain on a chain, there are naturally many ways to play:
Become a node: Holding eMDBL and Dragon Ball can unlock MOSE node operation and realize earning money;
Custom game private server. At that time, you will no longer have to play games, but will directly become a distributor and make your own money using other people’s games. This is very suitable for big players and KOLs with a certain appeal;
Bitcoin assets such as BRC-20, BRC-420, Bitmap, etc. can be used as production materials in MOSE. For example, the Blue Box community can create an exclusive parallel world on the MOSE chain, and then charge fees to share the income happily.
Summary: Xiaosan can become a node by holding eMDBL and Dragon Ball; it is highly recommended by large and popular investors and KOLs to build a customized game private server and become a capitalist by monetizing their influence.
MDBL Token Launch and Distribution
The maximum total supply of MDBL and eMDBL combined is 2.1 billion, which is fully allocated to the community, and the team and investors have no share.
Initially, 69% will be used for fair launch, and the remaining 31% will be waiting for you to mine in the ecosystem.
eMDBL will be released every day, and the amount released will be determined by the current supply of MDBL and eMDBL. Once the supply reaches a certain value, the daily release amount will be halved; if the current supply decreases below the value, the daily release amount will return to the pre-halving level.
Why is the current supply declining? Because MDBL is a deflationary mechanism, there is burning wear in the exchange with eMDBL.
Current Supply = Released - Burned. See the next section for detailed explanation.
MDBL/eMDBL redemption: immediate withdrawal or delayed gratification
(Knocking on the blackboard) This is the most important thing, because it involves withdrawing money and leaving:
The one that can be used for gold is eMDBL. It takes a certain lock-up time to redeem it back to MDBL. You can also burn some eMBDL to redeem it immediately. The lock-up time can be customized. Compared with the traditional staking mechanism, the degree of freedom and openness is very high. Before the exchange is successful, you can cancel the lock-up at any time and get back all your eMDBL without any loss.
Asset Empowerment: Dragon Ball and Dragon Dragon
If MDBL is the ecological golden shovel, then Dragon Ball and Dragon Dragon are the golden keys. Throughout the entire game and L3, various gameplay methods are added with buffs, and you can directly earn 999 with one knife. for example:
Holding Dragon Ball and Dragon Dragon to increase the income of liquidity mining can mine more ecological coins of Dragon Universe and Merlin. These coins have new ways of earning interest in the Bitcoin ecosystem, achieving a closed loop.
Only those who hold Dragon Ball are qualified to become a node of the MOSE chain, or to build a customized private server. When MOBOX makes games, you count your money and realize your income after sleeping.
Dragon dragons can have unique numerical bonuses in the game, thereby sharing more game revenue, while dragon balls can make dragon eggs hatch rarer dragons with better numerical values.

Some opinions may not be correct
Finally, let me talk about why I think Dragonverse Neo will become the killer application for the finale of the Merlin ecosystem:
One sentence summary: full team structure + MDBL golden shovel + strict deflation + game L3 imagination space explosion
MOBOX has been making games since 2018. From Ethereum Legend to ChainZArena, all of them were hits at the time. It can only be said that people have made enough money, and there is no pressure to support the team. Some time ago, the market surged and 600 ETH was airdropped to the community. It should be the only project in my memory that directly distributes real money in the bull market. So even if you want to make money this time, your food and appearance will be relatively decent.
The team is relatively academic and is still spending money to develop products and keep up with the new narrative. It can be said that it is a rare team that has successfully survived several rounds of bulls and bears and still does not forget its original intention. Compared with the projects that debuted together in the same period, the team has returned to zero. Zero, run away, run away, mess up...
It is undeniable that Bitcoin is mainly played in groups by Chinese people, but there are still a lot of foreigners in the MOBOX community. These people don’t understand Bitcoin at all, but they will follow them to compete in Dragon Universe, MDBL, and Dragon Ball, so that they will not be separated from each other again. .
No pretense, the gameplay is simple and easy to understand, and the white paper is written in human language. MDBL does not engage in swishy PUA airdrops, and directly uses more than half of them for fair launch. Family members who want to get on the bus are welcome to get on the bus at any time. This is very Bitcoin.
MDBL can be said to be the golden shovel of the Dragon Universe and even the Merlin ecology. It can eat a hundred fish and dig various gold mines. It has free gameplay, can passively earn money, can mine gold, and can be managed.
The method of locking MDBL liquidity does not adopt the common ve/staking mechanism, but instead gives more flexible options. You can burn some eMBDL and leave immediately, or you can delay gratification in exchange for a higher exchange ratio. You can also cancel the exchange at any time and get it all back without any loss. The layout is full.
Dragon Ball is deflationary, and MDBL is also deflationary, and the project team has said that it will never conduct additional issuance in any sense. It is worth mentioning here that Dragon Ball, as an asset that is free to cast and does not charge any royalties, can be used as a golden key in the entire game and L3. This wave of empowerment is quite good.
Rather than making money in games, I recommend small retail investors to try to become creators. You only need to pledge a little shovel to open your own happy Odaily, and the benefits are exclusive to you, which is almost a million dollars.
Finally, what I am absolutely looking forward to is the gameplay of later nodes and private servers. Imagine that every asset issuance and every transaction in the ecosystem will give you money, and you can realize your after-sleep income in advance... You must know the chain The valuation is definitely larger than the valuation of a single game. Dragon Universe is currently the only project in Merlin Ecosystem that has the strength to build a chain. The leader in oil refining is making the game L3. This can truly open up the imagination.
