History

In the not-so-distant future, humanity faced the inevitable truth: Earth could no longer sustain its growing population. Pollution, climate change, and dwindling resources had pushed the limits of the blue planet. In a collective effort, humans set their sights on the Cosmos, searching for a new home among the stars.

After years of research and exploration, scientists discovered a promising moon, nestled in a distant galaxy. Its atmosphere was breathable, and the soil held the promise of sustenance. The place was christened Moonbys, a symbol of a new beginning for humanity.

As spacecrafts embarked on the perilous journey, excitement mingled with uncertainty. Among the colonists was Captain Alpha, a seasoned explorer with a determination to lead her people to a better future. The voyage was long and arduous, but the colonists held onto the hope of a fresh start.

Upon reaching Moonbys, the settlers encountered an unexpected surprise. An alien race, known as the Arcturians, greeted them with open arms. Towering beings with iridescent skin and ethereal eyes, the Arcturians possessed advanced technology and a deep understanding of the Cosmos.

Emissaries of the Arcturian Council, Arion, Seraphina and the Moon Templars, emerged as ambassadors between the two species. They explained that they had been monitoring Earth for centuries, witnessing the struggles of humanity. Impressed by the resolve to seek a new home, the Arcturians decided to extend their benevolent support to the settlers.

Under Arcturian guidance, the human colony flourished. Advanced technology was shared, enabling rapid development and terraforming of Moonbys. The Arcturians, who had experienced their own share of challenges, became mentors to the humans, fostering a symbiotic relationship between the two species.

As the colony prospered, Captain Alpha and her crew delved into the rich history of the Arcturians. They discovered that these benevolent and wise beings, had once faced a similar plight, seeking refuge on a distant planet. The Arcturians empathized with the struggles of humanity and saw the potential for a harmonious coexistence.

Over time, Moonbys became a thriving hub of diversity, a testament to the unity between humans, Arcturians and beings from all over the Cosmos. The Arcturians, although different in appearance, had integrated seamlessly into the community, sharing their knowledge and fostering a deep sense of camaraderie.

As the years passed, Moonbys became a beacon of hope for all species and beings.

The Arcturians, true to their promise, provided protection and guidance to ensure the colony's prosperity. Captain Alpha marveled at the journey they had undertaken, from leaving a dying Earth to building a thriving society on an unknown moon, all under the watchful eyes of their extraterrestrial allies.

In the vastness of the Cosmos, a bond between two species flourished, proving that even in the face of adversity, cooperation and understanding could forge a new destiny for humanity among the stars.


Properties

The colony is a 3D moon colony, with virtual properties that are Non Fungible Tokens (NFTs) minted on Cronos chain.

There will be a total of 1500 NFT properties.

These properties are divided into the following types:

  • 1000 - Lofts
  • 400 - Stores
  • 100 - Offices


Colony's completion estimate:

40% of the colony's properties have been completed. 

100% is planned by 2025.

Improvements and upgrades will be ongoing.

In-Game Currencies

Blockchain and Web3 technology allows our virtual moon colony to interact with the Cosmos.

There are only three in game currencies:

  • CRO (the native token of Cronos chain) - This is used for some in game transactions and for gas fees.

  • Lunarite(LRE)- This is a CRC20 token on Cronos chain and it is the foundation of the colony.

  • ㊙️- To be discovered by colonists and in game.

Lunarite Tokenomics

42,000,000 Lunarites have been mined from the deepest parts of our moon.

The latest technology has determined that there are no more Lunarites anywhere else in the Universe.

While some of these were found ready to be used, there are some that need to be processed or farmed!

Token Sale

10,500,000 Lunarite can be acquired at the UFO:

When these LREs are gone, the UFO will be gone too!


As the Lunarite supply at the UFO decreases, the CRO received will be used to increase the growth of LRE at:

Lunarite's liquidity will continue to grow from the services that the Colony offers to third parties in the Cosmos and beyond!

Farming

10,500,000 Lunarites need to be processed or farmed, so that they can be fully used around the colony and in Web3.

These can be farmed at Elk Finance.

This is meant to promote fair and decentralized token aquisition.


After the UFO is gone and 10,500,000 LRE have been farmed, 

All 42,000,000 Lunarites will be in full circulation. 

There will be more farms and others Web3 methods to acquire Lunarite at a later time.

Some might be destroyed, burnt or lost as time goes by.

Who knows what will happen!⚗️ 🎱🔮🧙
