Bridging Nature and Metaverse: Project OASIS to Provide Nature-Lovers a One-Stop Shop Gaming Experience
Multi-chain community-driven launchpad Starter (https://starter.xyz) announced it will host the launch of Project OASIS, a cryptocurrency-based project in which users, otherwise known as Natives, are each equipped with an exclusive avatar and wallet allowing full ownership and custody to create in-game characters, avatars, equipment and accessories. The OASIS Metaverse will harness the power of non-fungible tokens (NFTs) and bridge social gaming with decentralized finance (DeFi).
Serving as a one-stop blockchain realm to offer a gamified blockchain services and products, OASIS will serve as a script-less adventure with an in-game economy allowing users to create and develop their own adventure with infinite possibilities. Each unique avatar will later be provided with its own, personalized NFT character allowing users to further communicate, connect, trade, transact and obtain rare NFTs in the metaverse.
“We believe that ProjectOASIS has a great potential for growth as the blockchain metaverse offers a variety of gamified blockchain services and products,” said Lionel Iruk, Special Counsel at Starter. “OASIS will become a progressive and comprehensive ecosystem, allowing nature-loving token holders and Natives to gather, create and play in a metaverse that was created by nostalgia to bring back easy, light and fun games back into the cryptosphere.”
To facilitate yield farming, liquidity mining and rewards, native users can farm tokens and perform swaps in OASIS. OASIS has already integrated Pancakeswap and Apeswap to follow next as the primary DEXes on OASIS. Farms and staking pools will be integrated shortly after the OASIS IDO.
OASIS also offers ‘OLá’, its very own launchpad, which will be integrated into the metaverse, allowing other projects to grow and flourish and also allowing Natives to participate in additional projects within the community. The OASIS metaverse will have a Decentralised Autonomous Organisation (DAO), which will be run by OASIS COUNCIL and governed by $OASIS token holders.
During the Initial Dex Announcement (IDO), 1,500,000 $OASIS tokens will be made available for purchase at $0.20 USD. Inspired by the games of yesteryears, OASIS metaverse seeks to attract a new generation of DeFi adopters through the social gamification of DeFi to build a community that brings earnings and rewards beyond entertainment.
The proceeds generated from the token sale will be utilized for game development.
Starter’s community has provided hassle-free funding to over 35 IDO launches and now adds Project Oasis. For more information on Starter’s IDO launch of Project OASIS, please visit https://starter.xyz/.

10-15% Of Gamers In Florida Show Signs Of Gaming Addiction: Here Are 10 Signs Your Kid Is Suffering From It (And How You Can Help)
Recent studies indicate that 10-15% of young gamers in Florida exhibit signs of gaming addiction. These findings underscore the need for early identification of symptoms to prevent negative impacts on children’s mental and physical health. Gaming addiction, if not dealt with, can lead to poor academic performance, social withdrawal, and even health problems.
Marin Cristian-Ovidiu, CEO of FreezeNova, discusses key indicators of gaming addiction and offers practical advice for parents.
Recognizing Early Signs
“Early recognition of gaming addiction is crucial in preventing long-term negative outcomes,” Marin explains. The following signs can help parents identify if their child might be developing an addiction:
Exhaustion and Irritability
Constant tiredness and grumpiness during the day could indicate late-night gaming sessions interfering with sleep.
Gaming Obsession
If gaming dominates your child’s thoughts and conversations, and they plan their day around it while neglecting other responsibilities, it could be a sign of addiction.
Decline in Academic Performance and Lost Interests
A noticeable decline in academic performance or loss of interest in previously enjoyed activities may suggest your child is prioritizing gaming over more important tasks.
Emotional Volatility
Extreme emotional reactions to in-game outcomes, such as uncontrolled anger, known as ‘Gamer Rage’, or intense celebrations, could indicate an unhealthy attachment to gaming.
Physical Strain
Signs of repetitive strain injuries like ‘Gamer’s Thumb’ or ‘Nintendo Neck’ from prolonged screen time are warning signals.
Neglecting Basic Needs
If your child is neglecting basic needs like eating, sleeping, or hygiene to keep playing, gaming has likely taken an unhealthy control over their life.
Creating a Supportive Environment
While video games can be a great source of entertainment and connection, around 70% of people with signs of gaming addiction also experience social disorders. Marin recommends a few tips for building a supportive and open environment for your child.
Teamwork and Setting Boundaries
“Parents and children should work together to create a healthy gaming environment. Gaming addiction requires a holistic approach,” Marin advises. Start by setting clear boundaries on gaming time to ensure there’s room for schoolwork, chores, and quality family time.
Revisit activities your child once loved, like football practice or exploring new hobbies together. It’s vital for your child to take breaks from screens, so create a balanced daily routine that includes homework, chores, exercise and just some gaming time. This allows your child to enjoy their games without neglecting other aspects of their life.
Open Communication
Maintain open communication. Discuss the games your child enjoys and any concerns you might have. By understanding their world, you can work together to find solutions.
Remember, you’re not alone. If you feel overwhelmed, seek professional help from specialists in gaming addiction. Marin concludes, “By working as a team, setting clear boundaries, and fostering open communication, we can help your child develop a healthy relationship with gaming and thrive in all areas of life.”
