Weekly Star Atlas Newsletter 209 from Aephia – https://aephia.com/star-atlas/weekly-star-atlas-newsletter-209/
This week’s Star Atlas news is highlighted by a significant economic overhaul proposal presented at the 19th Economic Forum by Chris (VP of Game Economy). This plan aims to fundamentally reshape the Galactic Market by reducing primary ship prices to just above market levels, accepting USDC for new ship sales, and implementing a 60-day period with 0% marketplace fees. Crucially, the team intends to reduce token sales by an equal amount to ship sale revenue, and use ATLAS emissions to buy back ships and tokens from the market. With strong community support, these changes are expected to be implemented later this month. Additionally, all Never Alone campaign rewards are now available via metacrafting in SAGE, offering exclusive character skins, ships, emotes, pets, and access perks depending on the Memory items collected. The 3rd DAO Council elections are nearing their close, with voting ending on December 10th (UTC), and a second Iris’ Blessing raffle is scheduled for December 12th during the first Galia Game Night. Finally, the SAGE Editor Suite now features a new 3D Galaxy Viewer, and an abundance of new character concept art by João Lira has been shared.
Atlas Brew 185:-Open Markets Operations & The Future of Star Atlas from Star Atlas TV – https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PSEvvC1bVaY
The latest Atlas Brew provided a comprehensive look into upcoming Star Atlas developments, highlighted by the announcement of the End of Year Town Hall next Wednesday, December 20th. Kicking off this December, the team will implement the Open Market Operations (OMO) proposal, a pivotal economic framework designed to strategically manage in-game ship inventory. This includes listing ships above market prices to capture value and using ATLAS from the SCORE sunsetting emissions to buy back ships from players, creating deflationary pressure. A significant part of OMO is the introduction of new crafting recipes for ships (Mamba Ex and Calico Maxhog, among others) that players can redeem to Automata at fixed ATLAS prices, fostering a crafting career in Star Atlas. Notably, marketplace fees will be reduced to 0% for a 60-day trial period, aiming to stimulate market activity. Community engagement is also a key focus, with open applications for the Econ Mantara to help shape the economy, and paid ‘Daocaster’ positions for content creators. Additionally, players are encouraged to join a watch party for the SuperPhoenix Racing Tournament this Friday, December 15th, and cast their votes in the ongoing DAO Council elections, which conclude today. The studio will also be on vacation from December 22nd to January 5th, with support tickets remaining open.
