Yash Dahenkar | CEO AcknoLedger: I am Yash, the co-founder and CEO of AcknoLedger. I have been working on this project and one of my side projects called Bitgenie Research, where I was working on a product to map all the market research reports in the digital universe.

All the three co-founders connected in 2019 and that is how the idea of AcknoLedger started.

Gold Rocket | Satoshi Club: Great background

Give us a brief introduction to the project. What is the essence of ACKNOLEDGER?

Yash Dahenkar | CEO AcknoLedger: AcknoLedger is a global platform that maps, monetize, and distributes Web 3.0 digital assets seamlessly across all the metaverses and gaming NFTs. We envision it to be the nervous system of Web 3.0 digital assets.

Acknoledger will work on a M2D model.

  • Mapping assets: Indexing all the NFTs across all the gaming, metaverses, NFT marketplaces, so that NFT collectors can leverage the insights for an informed decision making
  • Monetizing: Helping existing Web 2.0 and Web 3.0 content platforms to monetize their content as NFTs through our APIs and channels
  • Distribution: Marketing and distributing the content across multiple metaverses by tracking-mapping interoperability and exploring trading opportunities for institutional and retail investors

AcknoLedger is the aggregator all the metaverses.

Gold Rocket | Satoshi Club: When good people meet, good projects are born

Yash Dahenkar | CEO AcknoLedger: Absolutely

Andrés M. | Satoshi Club: Excellent description and innovative products you offer!

Gold Rocket | Satoshi Club: Also we would like to know more about your team. Who is on the project team core?

Yash Dahenkar | CEO AcknoLedger: All the co-founders of AcknoLedger are serial entrepreneurs and have been working across various industries and in the crypto space since 2016.

Kuntal Ganguly is our strategic lead and has been in the crypto space since 2016 and has helped more than 30 projects to scale up. He comes with a decade of experience across multiple platforms.

Abhishek runs a digital marketing agency and has decades of experience in building and scaling brands and has worked with multiple fortune 500 companies.

We connected in 2019 and that’s when the seed of AcknoLedger was born. We all are coming from different backgrounds and helped us bring this dream to reality.

Our extended team involves a set of truly committed and passionate developers, marketers, UI/UX developers and content creators who are working day and night to make this project a big success.

Gold Rocket | Satoshi Club: Really dream team

Yash Dahenkar | CEO AcknoLedger: All of us are true hustlers

Universal Content Number Scheme(UCNS) is used to create an ecosystem to map all the NFTs across the metaverses. It is the world’s first decentralized nomenclature system that will be adopted and used as a universal standard. UCNS will be used to verify the authenticity of NFTs across the digital universe.

Andrés M. | Satoshi Club: Well @ydcurious, thank you so much for the kind introduction. Let’s disclose more about AcknoLedger through our community questions.

Yash Dahenkar | CEO AcknoLedger: Sure!

Q1 from Telegram user @Emidm28:

A few days ago you shared with us the news that we can win 20,000 ACK tokens. I read that to participate in the ACK competition, each participant needs to increase their score to be able to win. How can we increase our score? Does that mean that all users with a high score will be winners? In addition to having a high score, what are the other requirements that we must meet?

Yash Dahenkar | CEO AcknoLedger: UCNS

Yes, you heard it right. To participate in the $ACK competition, each participant needs to increase their score to be able to win and get a chance to get the ACK tokens at a private round sale with a value worth $200/ winner, this will be a $10,000 allocation to 50 winners.

We are also going to give free airdrops of 20,000 ACK tokens to our community members by using a lottery system.
The chances of winning will increase if the participant refers to more people and has completed all the given tasks in the contest.

If you want get whitelisted, follow the instruction here: https://bit.ly/3lceq12

Andrés M. | Satoshi Club: Great opportunity, let’s join Satoshiclubbers

Yash Dahenkar | CEO AcknoLedger: Join now and don’t let the FOMO kick in later

Gold Rocket | Satoshi Club: It’s generous enough, I dare say

Yash Dahenkar | CEO AcknoLedger: Absolutely.

Andrés M. | Satoshi Club: What are the main utilities of ACK token?

Yash Dahenkar | CEO AcknoLedger: AcknoLedger plans to create a circular economy where ACK tokens will be used widely across metaverses. Those who hold ACK tokens will be eligible to receive NFT and content airdrops.

Below mentioned are the usage of the ACK token:

  • Participate in UCNS governance
  • Promotions of projects — NFT and content airdrops
  • Yield farming and staking rewards
  • Listing NFTs on UCNS
  • Accessing premium features of UCNS

We will add a lot of new token utilities as we move ahead!

Andrés M. | Satoshi Club: Great features to invest, where can we find the token?

Yash Dahenkar | CEO AcknoLedger: The tokens will get listed at the end of this month. We will announce in our Telegram community.

Gold Rocket | Satoshi Club: What other activities and programs do you plan to implement for the community?

Yash Dahenkar | CEO AcknoLedger: Some strategies which we are focusing on are:

Yash Dahenkar | CEO AcknoLedger: We are super excited

Andrés M. | Satoshi Club: Would you like to add something before the next question?

Yash Dahenkar | CEO AcknoLedger: We can move to the next question.

Q2 from Telegram user @MasterfulAstil:

Acknowledger is planning to create a Universal Content Numbering Scheme (UCNS) that will become world’s first decentralized nomenclature system for verifying the authenticity of NFT. Could you share more info on that initiative? At what stage is the development? How would you control the whole metaverse if everything is decentralized?

Yash Dahenkar | CEO AcknoLedger: UCNS is a Universal Content Numbering Scheme.

Every book is given a unique number known as ISBN, similarly, AcknoLedger will be using the UCNS system to map all the digital assets as NFTs over the internet and also help everyone understand the arbitrage opportunity and how these NFT’s are getting traded across all the marketplaces. Our goal is to become a Google for Web 3.0 digital assets.

Also, we are in the product development stage and phase 1 of the product that will be launched in Q1–2022.

Our goal is not to control the whole metaverse space, but to empower all the metaverses to reach their full potential by doing cross-marketing and community engagement.

Gold Rocket | Satoshi Club: Thanks for your answer

Yash Dahenkar | CEO AcknoLedger: Welcome! Next question please.

Gold Rocket | Satoshi Club: Can you share your road map with us please?

Yash Dahenkar | CEO AcknoLedger: Sure!

  • Q3 2020 — Analysis and market research on the idea of AcknoLedger (previously known as ResearchLedger)
  • Q1 2021 — Building the team and foundation for AcknoLedger
  • Q2 2021 — Launched pitch deck, tokenomics, website, and communications
  • Q3 2021 — Fundraise, strategic partnerships
  • Q4 2021 — TGE, IGO, major partnerships, and exchange listings

We can expect the launch of hade 1 of the product in Q1 2022.
TGE will happen at the end of this month.

Andrés M. | Satoshi Club: Thanks for share it, amazing events there, for example your coming IGO. Why did you choose an IGO and not an IDO?

Yash Dahenkar | CEO AcknoLedger: As we are catering the metaverses and gaming NFTs space, IGO is a perfect fit for us.

Andrés M. | Satoshi Club: Good point. Thanks for your answers, let’s proceed with the next question.

Yash Dahenkar | CEO AcknoLedger: Sure!

Q3 from Telegram user @Pavel_Jarosh:

One of the innovations brought by AcknowLedger is the line of Ackno products, one of them called Ackno Plagiarism Engine. Please share with the audience how does it work when analysing identical or similar NFTs? It sounds to be like an antifraud system where the fraud is the copyright infringement. What consequences will it bring to the fraudster?

Yash Dahenkar | CEO AcknoLedger: AcknoLedger works on the M2D model that consists of mapping, monetizing, and distribution.
In phase 1 of our product, we will map and index all the NFTs across all the infrastructure projects. Once our indexing of NFTs is complete, we will deploy a plagiarism engine on top of those NFTs. Whenever anyone publishes any NFT that is already present in the ecosystem, the plagiarism engine will raise a flag. It will also share the plagiarism percentage. Ackno Plagiarism Engine will be helpful in a lot of other things too. We cannot stop people from publishing plagiarised NFTs, but we can inform them that the particular NFT is already present. This will help a lot of NFT marketplaces and platforms.

Andrés M. | Satoshi Club: So is it like a sign to keep the author rights? Do you have any system related to that?

Gold Rocket | Satoshi Club: Very good system

Yash Dahenkar | CEO AcknoLedger: It’s not a sign. It is just a record to help the author.

Gold Rocket | Satoshi Club: Thanks for sharing

Let’s proceed to the next question!

Yash Dahenkar | CEO AcknoLedger: Sure.

Q4 from Telegram user @Ngoctu21:

ACKNOLEDGER is a Web 3.0 digital asset and working on M2D model. They will focus on gaming, NFTs and metaverses in the early stages. There are many NFT and metaverse projects out there, so there must be high competitiveness in the market and users have more choice when it comes to entering new platforms. What are some outstanding features that set ACKNOLEDGER above other blockchain based games? Also in recent years, stable coins like Tether (USDT) have depreciated by more than 20% due to high commodity costs, what technological tools does ACKNOLEDGER apply to enforce protocol rules and ensure stable parity?

Yash Dahenkar | CEO AcknoLedger: AcknoLedger is not competing with anyone. We don’t believe in competing, we believe in collaboration. Our core philosophy is to partner and work closely with all the projects out there. We believe in growing together. If you want to walk fast, walk alone. But, if you want to walk far, walk together.

AcknoLedger is the gateway to the metaverse and gaming NFTs.
Here are some outstanding features that distinguish us from other projects in the market:

  • Interoperability check of NFTs
  • Lifecycle tracking and plagiarism check of NFTs
  • Utility, scarcity, social proof, and many other features tracking of NFTs through UCNS
  • Facilitating new ways of revenue for NFT collectors by leveraging arbitrage opportunities, trending NFTs, brand promotions, etc.

Andrés M. | Satoshi Club: Gotcha, btw how much do you care about security? Have you done any audit process?

Yash Dahenkar | CEO AcknoLedger: We follow all the security measures and our smart contract is going through audit as of now and we will announce the details soon.

Andrés M. | Satoshi Club: Great job, security is one of the most important features.

Gold Rocket | Satoshi Club: Guys, you have correct life values

Yash Dahenkar | CEO AcknoLedger: Values are everything

Gold Rocket | Satoshi Club: Let’s proceed to the next question

Yash Dahenkar | CEO AcknoLedger: Yup!

Q5 from Telegram user @Emnking:

AknoLedger has had lots of partnerships with other projects. Some of these projects include: KardiaChain, Regain Ventures, Nine2Five Ventures, Prostarter, ZBS Capital, MahaDAO, and recently Momentum 6. Aside this partnerships, there are other partnerships with other projects. What led to this massive partnerships with so many platforms? What are the results that you plan to get from these multiple partnerships? Are we to expect more partnerships in the future? How do you plan to ensure that these multiple partnerships last for a long time and bring positive impact to AknoLedger?

Yash Dahenkar | CEO AcknoLedger: Our goal is to partner and collaborate with already established projects.

We will conduct cross marketing initiatives so that we can increase and leverage each other’s user base.

The best part about AcknoLedger is that we can partner and collaborate with every single project out there, whether it is an NFT project, metaverse project, gaming NFT project, or any infrastructure project or even oracle’s project.

And for that purpose, we have already collaborated and in discussion with some of the big infrastructure projects. We will soon announce.

Also, we will not only collaborate with the infrastructure projects, but also collaborate and partner with all the companies in that ecosystem and help them grow together and increase the users.

Gold Rocket | Satoshi Club: Looking forward to hearing from you

Andrés M. | Satoshi Club: What about designers? Have you contacted with some artist to develop NFTs?

Yash Dahenkar | CEO AcknoLedger: We are already in discussion with designers/international artists and there will be some big announcements soon!

Gold Rocket | Satoshi Club: Many thanks for your answers! Let’s proceed to the last question of this part

Yash Dahenkar | CEO AcknoLedger: Sure!

Q6 from Telegram user @DK177:

Your roadmap ends from this quarter. Does it mean that there are no more developments after major partnerships and exchange listings? If not, what is your ultimate milestone? Gaming NFTs is not a fresh concept. Do you have plans to do something different in that common frame? Since your roadmap only covers five quarters, please explain deeply about your strategic plan.

Yash Dahenkar | CEO AcknoLedger: First phase 1 of the product will be launched in Q1 2022. For the first phase of the product, we will be mapping NFTs across all the infrastructure projects. Which is a big deal and time consuming task.

In phase 2 of the product we will launch the UCNS system.

We are not only restricted to Gaming NFTs but we cover all type of NFTs.

Andrés M. | Satoshi Club: Excellent answer, 2022 is bringing excellent things for AcknoLedger, so we are in an early stage to invest

Q6 from Telegram user @Pavel_Jarosh:

One of the current challenges of NFT based games is the lack of interoperability of NFT across metaverses. AcknoLedger agrees with the issue and sets its resolution as a base of current project. Please let us know what are the steps already taken and those planned to be taken in order to improve the interoperability? Does it only mean to bring more projects to partnerships and shared clouds of NFT?

Right now we are working with projects to understand the interoperability challenges in deeper level.
