PAG E 2
At VINCI we aim to disrupt the creative industries by connecting creators and patrons directly to each
other. In order to do so, we are building an NFT platform for creators to directly promote, fund and
launch their work. A platform that makes it possible for creators to choose what suits their needs,
instead of leaving important decisions in the hands of others. For patrons, we are a platform where
they can follow and invest directly in the work of their favourite artists.

PAG E 3
INTRODUCTION NFT stands for “non-fungible token”. It is a digital asset that proves ownership to a
unique item, digital or physical. However, in their current form, NFTs mostly represent

How NFTs and images that are accessible by anyone. The immediate utility of the NFT thus lies in
observing the digital image the token is linked to.

a particular NFT, its only other purpose is to serve as a speculative investment where
a buyer hopes to eventually sell the NFT at a higher price.

new creative economy At VINCI, we think there is so much more to NFTs than just collecting images. The
current use of NFTs is simply not doing justice to the revolutionary blockchain

technology behind it.

INTRODUCING THE NFT+


The conventional use of NFTs as a glorified photo album, despite the vast potential
of tokenizing real-life value, is the exact reason why we at VINCI have developed
what we call the NFT+.

NFT+ is in essence an NFT with additional utility, taking advantage of the new
possibilities the technology offers. NFT+ creates an opportunity to share unique art
and music in a revolutionary way - and as such, NFTs will be a gateway to a whole
new market by building bridges between creators and patrons in ways that we have

never seen before.

LET’S DIVE IN …

The many utilities of NFT+

Multimedia
There is no doubt that art can be expressed in beautiful ways through an image. But
music and video provide depth and can move people in other significant ways. NFT+
enables artists to create any kind of experience through both image and sound.

As NFTs can be difficult to display in a wallet, especially if they contain more than
simply an image, VINCI profiles enable users to showcase their NFTs, including any
additional content they might include.

Music Royalties

artist can decide to sell 20% of the royalties in 2.000 fragments.

Events
While the crypto industry exists mostly in the virtual world, there are also assets in
the physical world that could benefit greatly from tokenization.

NFT-based tickets to art exhibitions, festivals, parties and conferences can start
connecting the online and offline worlds. NFTs are ideal for the secure transfer
of privileges like entering an exclusive event. The transactions of NFT tickets are
automatically stored on the blockchain, which means that the connection between
the artist and the buyer of the ticket doesn’t have to end after the event. For example,
an artist can airdrop memorabilia to the ticket owners after an event.

Example:
Lisa buys two NFT tickets for Colyn’s next concert. She transfers one of the tickets
to her friend Sandra’s wallet as a birthday present so they can go to the concert
together. At the venue, they show the NFTs to gain access to the concert. After the
event, Colyn airdrops a live recording of one of the tracks he played at the concert
to all ticket holders.

PAG E 7
N F T+ U T I L I T I E S

Unlockable content
NFT+ includes unlockable content. When minting an NFT on the VINCI marketplace,
the creator can choose to attach files that can only be unlocked by the token owner,
guaranteed through cryptography. This adds true value to the token and makes
forgeries impossible.

Example:
A photographer at the Colyn concert takes pictures of the artist and the party people
in the crowd. Afterwards, he sells his pictures as NFTs on the VINCI marketplace. The
visible part of an NFT is a watermarked picture in low res format. The owner of the
NFT can unlock the picture in high quality and without a watermark. Sandra finds
a great picture of Lisa and herself and buys the NFT as a thank you present for Lisa.

Multi-chain compatibility
While NFTs can be represented on every major blockchain, NFT minting platforms
often focus on just one. VINCI has compatibility and security built directly into our
NFTs, which allows users to safely transfer between networks.

Integrity
VINCI NFTs can be verified to prove that they are authentic and have never been
tampered with, by checking their hashes.

VINCI also has a curation team for both music and art. The curation team is in direct
contact with every artist on the platform and verifies the validity of each NFT. Every
NFT on the platform is guaranteed to contain content belonging to the featured
artist.

MARKETPLACE
The core functionality of the platform is the marketplace. It supports auctions and
direct sales. NFTs can be listed on each network $VINCI supports, which is currently
BSC and Polygon, with additional bridges and integrations in the roadmap. To
be able to use the marketplace, all potential buyers need to connect their own
cryptocurrency wallet to their user profile. We do not hold or control the on-chain
assets of buyers and sellers and instead rely on decentralised, fully automated smart
contracts.

AUCTIONS - While price can be expressed in various tokens, including stablecoins


like $USDC, the token used in all auctions is $VINCI. To enable swapping through
the platform we connect with contracts of Uniswap (Polygon) and PancakeSwap
(BSC).

DIRECT SALES - A seller can accept payment in a variety of cryptocurrencies.


Just like with auctions, the entire financial transaction happens on-chain.

PHYSICAL ITEMS - The VINCI platform allows for the sale and shipment of
physical items to users. Sellers collect the delivery address from the buyer in order
for a sale to complete. No personal data will be stored on the platform.

REVENUE - 85% of each primary sale goes directly to the artist, while 15%
is transferred to the $VINCI treasury. Secondary sales have a 10% fee which is
transferred directly and exclusively to the artist. This includes sales through OpenSea
and Rarible.

Artist pools
Artist pools are smart contracts where investors can support their favourite artist or
group and earn rewards at the same time. To support an artist and earn rewards,
users simply transfer $VINCI to the pool of their selected artist. Both the artist and
the investor putting money in the pool earn $VINCI. Tokens are rewarded to users
proportional to the size of their part of the pool. In addition, artists can add merch
or other benefits to reward users for supporting them.

There is no fee for moving $VINCI in or out of artist pools.

Users can withdraw a maximum of 2% of their $VINCI in the pool every 24 hours.
However, a user is always guaranteed a minimum withdrawal of 1.000 $VINCI every
24 hours.

There is a variety of rewards including:

• $VINCI
• Community poll access
• Picasso Club membership

$VINCI rewards come from the artist pool rewards fund. Tokens are rewarded to
both artists and users proportional to the size of their part of the pool.

VINCI

Real life events


$VINCI is not only used on our platform, but also at the events we host. This could for
example be concerts, dance parties, festivals, art exhibitions etc. where food, drinks
and activities can be paid for in $VINCI.

VINCI

Mobile app
Our mobile app is an essential link in our line of products. It, quite literally, allows us
to connect the real world to the blockchain. For example, if a visitor to one of our
events needs to pay for a drink. Our app allows them to generate a QR-code derived
from their NFT-based entrance ticket.

Besides connecting real-world use cases to the blockchain, the app is also an
extension of our web functionality. This means that the app provides direct access to
the VINCI marketplace and allows for a fast mobile browsing and trading experience
where all NFTs - both owned and for sale - are right at the users’ fingertips.

The VINCI mobile app is listed on both the Apple App Store and Google Play.

Picasso Club
The Picasso club is a special community for the most loyal and committed users of
VINCI. It’s an exclusive community where members get access to special benefits
such as:

• Early access to NFT sales


• Priority access to events
• Meet & Greets
• AMA/Q&A with our artists
• Discounts
• Special Giveaways
• Exclusive DJ sets

Picasso Club Members also have the ability to sell NFTs through their profile page
(the NFTs still need to go through a curation process) and customise their VINCI
profile in various ways, like changing the URL, adding a custom domain, or changing
the style.

Users can become Picasso Club members in various ways:

• Providing a certain amount of $VINCI / $MATIC liquidity on Uniswap


• Providing a certain amount of $VINCI / $BNB liquidity on PancakeSwap
• Holding a certain amount of $VINCI in artist pools
• Holding certain NFTs
