DOMA (Maksym Rokmaniko, Francesco Sebregondi, Francis Tseng, Olesia Kovalenko)

Owning a home has become a luxury that fewer and fewer people can afford. All around the world, an increasing number of city dwellers are resigning themselves to a lifetime of rent. It is time we change this unsustainable mode of urban living. This is why we are developing DOMA.CITY – a blockchain-based, shared ownership platform for equitable housing. Bridging the great divide between renting and owning a home, DOMA leverages the principles of the new token economy to make urban property accessible to all. Designed for a fair distribution of the value generated by urban environments, DOMA works as a platform cooperative, owned and run by its users. A rewarding investment in the sharing economy of tomorrow, DOMA triggers a shift towards affordable, inclusive, and sustainable cities.

To test some of the DOMA logics, we have developed DOMA.PLAY – a multiplayer, persistent world online game. The main goal of the game is to beat housing crisis by adopting collaborative strategies that are in the heart of DOMA platform – crowd buying of properties and equity distribution. DOMA.PLAY simulates the complexity of the real estate market and tests DOMA in a controlled context where users must collaborate to beat the housing crisis. Each player dives into the simulated market, where AI landlords behave in an aggressively extractive mode, making housing less and less affordable for citizens. It is up to them now whether the players will be able to change these urban dynamics. To achieve success in the game, it is essential to collaborate with other players to create the cooperative strategies and enter the housing market altogether. As DOMA does in real life, in the game it enables a multitude of urban dwellers to coordinate their actions at scale. Players can get together to achieve a common goal and share collectively generated profits.

What will you do in the DOMA.PLAY world?

拥有一处房产对于越来越多的人来说已经成为一种奢侈。在世界各地，越来越多的城市居民放弃买房，而选择租房生活。是时候改变这种不可持续的城市生活方式。这正是我们开发DOMA.CITY的原因。DOMA.CITY是一个基于区块链的住房所有权共享平台。为了填补租房和买房之间的巨大鸿沟，DOMA利用新代币经济的原则，让所有人都能拥有城市房产。DOMA的设计是为了公平分配城市环境产生的价值，它是一个平台合作社，由用户拥有和运作。作为对未来共享经济的一项有意义的投资，DOMA触发了向可负担、包容和可持续城市的转变。

为了测试DOMA的内在逻辑，我们开发了DOMA.PLAY。这是一个多玩家、持续性的网络游戏。这款游戏的主要目标是通过采用DOMA平台核心的协作策略——众筹房产和股权分配——来战胜住房危机。游戏模拟了房地产市场的复杂性，并在受控的环境中对DOMA进行了测试。在这个环境中，用户必须共同协作以抵御住房危机。每个玩家都会进入模拟市场，人工智能的房东开启一种激进的压榨模式，使得居民越来越买不起房。现在取决于玩家是否能够改变这些城市动态。要想在游戏中获胜，需与其他玩家合作，制定合作策略，共同进入房地产市场，这一点至关重要。如同DOMA在现实生活中的做法一样，在游戏中，它能够让许多城市居民集体性地协调其行动。玩家可以聚集起来实现一个共同目标，并共享所产生的益处。

在DOMA.PLAY世界中，你会有何作为？
