Platform Update

We released Drop 2 this week, and as you know, with a reduced mint count off the back of community feedback. So now we wanted to take a bit of time to share with you the high level vision and roadmap that we have for our marketplace and Serie A Collection. As previously said, we want Aera to be the home for football fans wanting to connect and share their passion in the digital space.

Milestone 1 is done! We’ve ironed out the bugs, purchasing is smoother, and you can collect and trade all your moments on our marketplace. We have published new exciting challenges every week, but this is just the beginning. The whole OneFootball team is now focusing on realising our engagement vision for the community.

Let us walk you through some of the features and improvements that will come to the marketplace within the next couple of months.

Quality of life improvements:

• Grouping in the Marketplace — we know this can be a messy place, so let us help you organize your search! All offers of the same moment will now be grouped all together and you will have the opportunity to search through them using our filters. A much cleaner experience!
• Replay your Pack Opening sequence: You got a legendary in a bronze pack? Really? You swear? The wait is now over — you can replay any opening of a pack you had! Let’s make the bragging rights visual!
• New Profile sorting: As a good collector you own a lot of your favourite moments, and it’s difficult to remember them all? You will now have the capacity to sort them the way you want.
• New User improved entry flow: NFT and blockchain is all about education. We are currently re-thinking our entry flow to make sure people have a much better first time experience: understanding our concept, creating your account and wallet, and then collecting your favourite moments.

Challenges v2.0:

We’ve had three completed challenges so far and the fourth is currently underway. We will continue to release more and more challenges, and in new formats. We will provide new rewards: packs, specific moments… but even a lot more than that… imagine being able to earn a ticket for the Serie A match you dreamed of? Or jerseys of your favourite team? All that will be possible soon on Aera! Our objective remains the same: Providing value for your moments and getting you closer to football than ever before!

The Incinerator:

Do you want to trade the moment you like the least for something better? And you can’t wait for the challenge that features the ones you have? Let me introduce you to the incinerator… as simple as it sounds: put in any moment you want, earn points and trade them for a much better reward (and one you can select!).

And there’s a lot more to come… from collector score, to daily tasks, leaderboards, badges, full season rewards, more licences, integration with Instagram… and that is only the beginning!
