TANGENT

Background to Tangent Why TANG?

Project Tangent was conceived in early 2021, upon the realization that the Cardano chain required a decentralized radical art and finance project that honored the chain’s developers, contributors, vision and inspirations. With the exponential growth of the Non-Fungible Token (NFT) industry and its huge adoption across a variety of blockchains, Tangent is on a mission to create an innovative way to bridge the gap between NFTs, finance and tangible real world asset classes. The Tangent DeFi app is a permissionless platform where investors, artists and all other parties can stake, receive rewards and experiment with groundbreaking NFTs seamlessly, in a safe and sustainable manner on the Cardano blockchain.

Furthermore, Tangent provides a platform for users to purchase virtual land, across the Tanglobe, a 3-D virtual environment that merges digital life with real world experiences, whilst creating endless new playgrounds to build and landscape with personal digital art and other possessions. Tanglobetrotters are players in the Tanglobe who have the ability to take part in land grabs through on-chain game battles, bringing a new dimension to play-to earn initiatives.

Why TANG?

The Tang Dynasty was marked by strong and benevolent rule, economic expansion and a cultural efflorescence of cosmopolitan style, the Tang dynasty emerged as one of the greatest empires in the medieval world. The token name ‘TANG’ is our homage to both the IOHK Foundation & our savior Charles Hoskinson who laid the foundation for the Cardano Network today, whilst calling the colorful city of Hong Kong his home.
