No transparancy, you get nothing in return, no experience.\n\nPhauna is a nature photoraphy platform where famous artists donate their photo's for nature projects of trusted NGO's. Photo owners witness the entire nature restoration journey real-time.\n\n### Achievements:\n\n- Our first artist is legendary birder Arjan Dwarshuis, who possesses the world-record of observing the most bird species in one year.\n\n- We are in collaboration with world-renowned NGO IUCN NL for strategic decision making on nature projects.\n\n- We support Proyecto Washu to restore nature on the highly damaged rainforests of Ecuador.\n\n- Our Genesis collection will go live on August 1st, where we aim to raise $14,000 to Proyecto Washu (70% of proceeds).\n\n- Our main target group are nature enthousiast who are new to crypto. So, we have built a highly user-friendly platform. As an example, you can pay with credit-card.\n\n### Team:\n\nPhauna consist currently of only one team member, me,  Sophron Vermeij [Twitter](https://twitter.com/sophron_phauna), from The Netherlands.\n\nI strongly believe that in the current technology landscape, flexibility and efficiency are most important at the start of a project. I want to grow in team size only when I have more sight on how NFTs will adopt. And importantly, I am very frugal to make sure most contributor's money goes to nature restoration.\n\n## Roadmap\nAugust 1, 2023: Genesis collection live (200 NFTs)\n\nNovember 1st, 2023: Main collection live (1500 NFTs)\n\nFebruary 1st, 2024: Main colleciton 2 live (2000+ NFTs)\n\n## Funding use:\nWe yet have received funding or grants at all. Everything Phauna is, is from the founder itself. To be successful, we only need to sell 5,000 NFTs in the first year. We notice demand is there, but if you are in the NFT business, you are in de marketing business. So we will need money to get more exposure of this more rewarding way of fundraising.\n\n## Communication / Community:\nOur most important channel is mail. If you read this far, please subscribe [here](https://phauna.beehiiv.com/). \nMail is the medium the masses use and can be NFT-gated for exclusive nature restoration.\n\nOf course we are also highly active on [Twitter](https://twitter.com/Phauna_earth), [Instagram], and [Discord](https://discord.gg/e7CA4n6Y)\n\nYou can visist our website here: [www.phauna.earth] (https://www.phauna.earth)", "logoImgData": {}, "bannerImgData": {}, "projectTwitter": "phauna_earth"}
