A groundbreaking platform called T-REX has made its debut in Hong Kong, promising to revolutionize the way value is distributed within the Web3 ecosystem. With an impressive funding round of $17 million from notable investors like Arbitrum Gaming Ventures, Framework Ventures, North Island Ventures, and Portal Ventures, T-REX aims to tackle one of the most pressing issues in the industry—inefficient value allocation.
As Web3 technologies advance, the technical infrastructure has continually evolved, resulting in faster processing times and lower transaction fees. However, the underlying mechanisms for distributing value often remain flawed. Many token projects experience initial excitement followed by rapid declines in both price and community engagement. Current incentive structures tend to favor short-term participants while neglecting those who are committed for the long haul.
Joyce Yim, CEO and Cofounder of T-REX, highlighted that existing tools like airdrops and point systems have become ineffective, attracting opportunistic actors rather than genuine contributors. “These methods lead to high costs and poor retention,” she remarked.
In response to these challenges, T-REX has developed the 5D Persona, an innovative, privacy-preserving profile that evolves based on user activity. This multi-dimensional profile encompasses a range of factors including demographics, assets, social signals, interests, and knowledge, creating a comprehensive and accurate representation of users over time. Coupled with T-REX’s Intelligence Flywheel mechanism, this system facilitates a tailored connection between the right users and relevant projects, improving engagement and accountability in the process.
Setting itself apart in a competitive field, T-REX combines identity verification, attribution, and incentive distribution into a single, cohesive framework. According to Yim, “Most tools today address only one aspect of the challenge. Our approach integrates these elements, enabling a more efficient value flow throughout the ecosystem.”
As part of its unique offerings, T-REX plans to unveil Rexy, a limited collection of 3,333 NFTs on the Arbitrum platform, set for release in October. Unlike conventional NFTs that are available for public sale, Rexy serves as a contribution-proof collectible, intrinsically linked to T-REX’s core data systems. The distribution will follow an invite-only whitelist format, targeting users who have demonstrated significant contributions either within Web3 or specifically in the T-REX ecosystem. This shift redefines NFTs, positioning them as markers of verified achievement rather than mere collectibles.
T-REX is ultimately focused on creating a new engagement layer for Web3, designed to enhance the distribution of value across the entire ecosystem. By relying on multi-dimensional user personas and robust recommendation algorithms, T-REX aims to significantly improve the underlying economic frameworks of Web3, crafting an environment in which users can actively participate and contribute to on-chain projects.
